Richard Day's Legacy Chapter 056
Meanwhile, Aiden who's been celebrating the success of his subtle comeback, thanks to Clinton's help in the government house, was relaxed on his chair, with his left arm placed at the back of his head with a huge grin on his face as he scrolled his financial report of the past days, smiling hugely as he did; business was picking up and he was glad to see. As a thought flickered through his mind, his smile dipped, ‘Can’t even entertain that thought, if Richard Day comes out of jail, I'll be toast. He most definitely can't come out’ Aiden spoke in his mind, his jaw clenching as the thought passed his mind. With the thought souring his mood, he decided to ease his mind by going through his social media, his fingers scrolled through his Photogram feed, and as he began paying more attention, his eyes squinted and his brows instantly creased, “What's going on? What's this?!" He asked no one in particular loudly as his eyes shot up and he adjusted himself on his seat, sitting up straig

Sneering at him with cold eyes, Aiden continued,“I pay you to get the job done at any cost, and right now Clinton, you're slacking!”Aiden tsked, using his tongue to wipe his teeth as he sneered at Clinton. Clinton swallowed, his gaze lowering as he nodded, chills running down his spine.For the umpteenth time, Clinton swallowed, trembling slightly,“I understand Richard. We'll do all we can to contain the situation, trust me.”Aiden spared him another glance and hissed,"I want to trust you but you aren't making it easy." He leaned into Clinton's ears as he spoke in a low tone,“Not just contain the situation, but find how Richard gets to spend the rest of his life in jail. I don't need to spell out anything for you, if you guys can't find anything on him, then maybe you should plant something worth finding!”Clinton's eyes widened but he nodded, his head churning with thoughts. Aiden smiled sinisterly as he tapped Clinton’s shoulder and went to take his seat,Aiden wasn't ready to

All heads turned in her direction as they gaped at her. This time, Andrew was the first to react as he flew to his feet and jabbed his finger in the direction of the window,“You want me" he pointed at himself, “to face them?" he asked, his eyes almost widening as he glanced at his supposed fianceéCassandra shrugged in response,“What other option do you have?" "Sit back and wait for everything to die down, for them to decide to go home and release an official statement afterward” Andrew retorted, and Cassandra laughed loudly, her eyes devoid of any humor,"And what if they don't go home?” she countered,"Then we wait it out! They're bound to get tired someday somehow”Andrew retorted once again, running his hand through his face. Shaking her head, Cassandra walked over like a predator aiming for its prey, smiling seductively, she leaned towards his face and kissed him sensually, running her fingertip down his chest,“Don't be worried, you just have to be confident. You'll promise t

The people's reactions had been unexpected and instant, as they had seen through Andrew's foul plan. While Andrew and the rest were hastily retreating, the crowd was still surging forward, tossing objects at them and hurling insults.Cassandra's face was a canvas of anger and fury, her entire face was reddened. She had never felt so humiliated and embarrassed before, not even when Nicholas Hunt had practically thrown them out of his restaurant after demanding their payment,“This is and was a disaster!" She muttered through gritted teeth,‘You think?!’ Andrew retorted in his mind, unable to voice his out. He shook his head in self-pity, saying nothing else.When they finally made their escape into the office, all four of them flopped onto available seats, unsuccessfully trying to dust out their clothes. The room was beginning to fill with the stench of eggs, as Clinton and Harold were unable to escape the egg attack.Harold looked pale, his facial expression quite grim as he curled hi

“Richard Day! You're under arrest for fraud, bribery, and corruption!” Inspector Finn’s words rang out, and Richard leaned back in his chair, unfazed. Slowly, he turned to face the officer. “Finn,” he drawled, “ To what do I owe this pleasure?”“Uhm… A case has been brought against you, and I’m simply here doing my duty,” Finn replied, a hint of nervousness in his voice.‘Is that so?’ Richard raised an eyebrow, and his gaze flicked briefly to his assistant, Benson, whose hand hovered over his waistband, ready to act. With a subtle shake of his head, Richard signaled him to stand down.Sighing, Richard looked around at the officers before focusing on Finn. “What crime did you say has been levied against me?" he asked, voice calm but edged with steel. Inspector Finn swallowed a little before he replied. “You've been accused of misappropriation of funds, bribery, corruption, and various other crimes" He started with a clearer voice, but his confidence wavered as he continued und

They arrived at the prison, and Inspector Finn led Richard inside, with Richard striding in and his hands cuffed.They were headed to Inspector Finn's office when loud siren noises filled the air, and officers straightened their postures as a fleet of six luxurious cars rode into the police compound. The cars came to a stop, with a well-dressed officer hurrying down to open the back door he had come down from,Inspector Finn watched with mouth agape as a woman with long flowing red hair and voluptuous curves came down, wearing high stiletto heels, the aura around her was that of power and authority.As he watched her approach, he shuffled on his feet and gulped, before he greeted her with all the false enthusiasm he could muster.“C-chief, this is a pleasant surprise. You didn't inform us you were coming in" He greeted, trying to smile despite the turmoils in his stomach, the police Chief raised her brows at him before replying snidely,“I didn't know I was to inform you of my itine

Finn shook his head vigorously, closing his eyes tight as he did, mumbling under his breath,“I-I w-was only following orders of the mayor. " Vivienne straightened herself, “You also follow my order! You don't go behind me and execute orders without my permission!”Richard remained impassive, looking at Finn kneeling in front of him. He understood what was going on, it was obvious Finn was just a mere messenger whose hands were tied. “It’s all right, Vivienne. I’ll be fine.” He turned to Vivienne and said calmly.Vivienne swallowed hard, scratching at her temple as she watched Richard. It was as clear as day that the mayor and his daughter were nothing but ambitious but stupid people who didn't mind bringing people down to get to their aim.On the surface, the city of Dalton appeared peaceful and prosperous, but beneath this facade were various dangerous factions engaged in a power struggle. Only Richard’s presence kept these forces from making bold moves against the city. Shou

But then, as she recalled the respectful glances the manager directed at them, understanding dawned on her. Of course—it had to be because of Andrew. He was a Morris, from one of the most prominent families in the capital. Andrew's family name alone must have been enough to completely change their treatment here.Realizing this, Cassie’s eyes sparkled with admiration. Her confusion melted into a profound pride. She looked at Andrew, her lips curling into a smile. “Andrew, I’m so proud of you! It’s all because of you! Only the Morris family can have such an influence!” Andrew gave a smug smile, shrugging as though it was nothing.“Well, being a Morris has its perks,” he replied with a wink. “Enjoy, this is only the beginning. This is nothing compared to all you stand to gain with our marriage and merger”Andrew boasted with a puffed-out chest, causing Harold and Cassie to exchange a glance and beamed widely at themselves.The same thought was running through both their minds: it ha

The door to Andrew's office flung open as a fiery gazed Cassandra stormed into it, thrusting her phone into Andrew's face, she bellowed,“Have you seen this? Are you aware of what that bitch was planning all along? How come you aren't aware or you chose to do nothing?! We're about to watch everything we've worked for go down the drain!" As usual, Harold was also in the office and flew to his feet, his gaze darting between a fuming Cassandra and a confused Andrew, before looking at his daughter who looked like she had smoke coming out of her ears and nostrils,“Somebody say something!" Cassandra shrilled, her chest rising and falling rapidly as she glared at them; Andrew, whose brows were furrowed, glanced at her and then at the phone before rising from his chair, scraping it on the linoleum floor as he did. He walked over to Cassandra's side and tried wrapping his arms around her only for her to brush him away,Gritting his teeth subtly, he rubbed her forearm,“Calm down Cassie and

Vivienne stepped forward and added with a smile,“I can confirm this to be true, and we have provided you all with the evidence to back it up. A file is being passed across to you, please look at it, as therein contains all the information you need to know, and please feel free to share it on your online space" Almost immediately, murmurings broke once more as the people began going through the shared document. The room erupted into fury and flurry of questioning and camera clicking, even as they read and fiddled with their devices,Their mouths and eyes widened as they continued reading and seeing how Richard had helped set them up, going as far as waiving their crimes.The people began glaring and sneering at the men, curling their lips at them, as they cursed at them,"You all are just a bunch of ingrates!”"You should be ashamed of yourselves!

Murmuring and gasps immediately filled the hall as everyone snapped their heads to look at the person who had spoken before gaping at him with widened eyes before returning their gazes to the four men on the stage, whose faces had gone so red, and were frozen on the spot, they had their chins down, unable to say anything,Vivienne smirked and tried to stoke the fire more; she glanced at the speaker and urged him to come forward.As he made his way forward, taking long strides with his shoulders held high, Bernard Cooper didn't fail to notice the hateful glare that the men threw at him, neither did he fail to hear the mumblings of those who were present,“Isn't that the deputy mayor that recently resigned?" “Yes! I'm sure that's why he spoke with such confidence and asked that question" “Of course! He must know more than he let on. He wouldn't dare say something like that if he didn't have proof or know what he's saying" The voices and murmurings trailed him as he trod towards the s
