Richard Day's Legacy Chapter 062
The rumors began having the desired effect, with some people calling for Richard's head on a platter, while others doubted the rumors and chose to believe Richard against all odds,While the news intensified, Vivienne got to hear about it, being loyal to Richard and getting to know him better over the last few weeks, she knew Richard better than anyone and also knew that there was no way he could be involved with anything shady or illegal.Vivienne decided to dig into the matter, to get to the bottom of the scandal, she was going to ask Richard for some information about the people he had fought with, making a mental note to also reach out to people who had been close to Richard during the war, to see if she could get any information about his past.She sent some of her men to investigate the issue and did not return until they had something concrete to give her while she continued her investigation on her part. Coincidentally, her men returned, confirming the news she had also discov

Walking towards the office with head held high and shoulders high, General James took wide steps as he walked; the citizens who had gathered to see what was going on parted to let him through as they watched him with lowered gazes, their eyes twinkling as they saw him move gracefully. They had never seen anyone like him before and they didn't know what to make of him.General James stood in front of the mayoral office, awaiting for his presence to be recognized, staring intently at the door he glanced at his watch before returning his gaze to the door,The door finally flung open, and a flustered and dazzled-looking Andrew stepped out, with his cheeks flushed, he bowed slightly while greeting the General,“General Sir. You're welcome to Dalton City, we're delighted to have you grace our presence" Squinting his eyes a little at him, General James quirked his brow at him, before asking with curled lips, tilting his head slightly to observe Andrew who was shivering slightly from the int

When no one replied to him immediately, General James clenched his jaw, his neck corded as he cracked it from side to side before jabbing his finger at Cassandra,“I.hate.to.repeat.myself! What did you just say?" Cassandra cleared her throat and looked away, forcing Andrew who was already livid to answer through gritted teeth,“Richard Day has been put away on the charge of bribery and extortion, and most recently murders of war soldiers and citizens" A few people nodded in agreement as they managed to stare at James, whose brows were creased. Surprisingly, he folded himself and belted out a loud laugh which caused everyone to gape at him and then at themselves, wondering if the general was all right.Still doubled over in laughter, General James clutched at his belly, as it was deep in laughter. The information they had given him was the most ludicrous thing he had heard all year: Richard, a murderer and opportunist?The thought alone was ridiculous, and so he snorted while laughin

All hell immediately let loose as they all began chattering, arguing, and demanding evidence.“How can we believe you? Since Richard's detainment, we've heard one horror story and another, and there's got to be some sort of truth in it" “That's right! After all, there's no smoke without fire, and as the saying goes, there's always an iota of truth in every rumor. This rumor has been circulating for quite a while through different means, and there has to be some truth to it!" One lanky-looking fellow stepped out as he faced General James with his head held high; though he was a little scared, he tried his best to hide it.General James heaved a deep sigh as he cast a glance behind him toward Harold and the rest, before shaking his head in disbelief,His eyes widened a little, and he blinked, as a smile spread across his face, causing some of the people to glance weirdly at him. General James briefly nodded, cleared his throat, and began making his way to his car, his assistant follow

At the question, everyone nodded and began speaking at once,“That's right! What do you have to say about it?" “Trafficking, in whatever form, is a terrible allegation. Did he or did he not traffick people during the battle?" “Tell us! We want to know" All of them began speaking at once, exchanging glances and staring at General James, as they awaited his response.General James’ expression turned stern, he scoffed and shook his head with a disbelieving smile on his face,These people were surely doubting Thomases, looking for a crime where there wasn't any. Gazing at them sternly, he spoke loudly and clearly,“Those allegations are completely false! Nothing more than blatant lies” he began, nodding as he sported a small smile,"You all have been fed lies, and like hungry people, you've readily accepted it without questioning or investigating the matter. They have turned the stories upside down to their own advantage and to your foolishness”As he threw the subtle insults, the peop

General James and Vivienne left the mayor's office, leaving behind the crowd who were verbally attacking Harold, Cassandra, and the rest,General James had placed Vivienne in one of his convoys, while her driver drove hers, trailing behind the convoy. Vivienne was regally seated, her eyes shut as she waited for the drive to the prison cell.After she had gotten wind of the arrival of someone important headed to the mayoral office, Vivienne had immediately set out for the office, not bothering to inform Richard as she had hurriedly left.She arrived at the office at the same time as Cassandra and Harold did, but she had made certain to blend in the crowd, wanting to know what was happening and to evaluate the situation, Listening intently as she analyzed the situation, she realized General James had fought alongside Richard in battles and was here to see his friend, and wasn't another foe as she had assumed.Meanwhile, in his car, General James was a little anxious; as he gazed out th

After the situation at the mayoral office, everyone from Harold to Clinton was quite upset, with Cassandra raging at the humiliation she had gotten,“That foolish man had the audacity to call me a gold digger! I'm going to make him pay!" She swore, snarling at no one as she glared with blazing eyes and curled lips.They had barely made an escape from the maddened crowd, and she had vowed to get back at Richard and Vivienne, someone had to pay for what had happened to her.Snapping her head up, she glared at her fiancé and father and snapped,“I'm going to the prison to visit that lowlife! He's going to get a piece of my mind today; nobody, and I mean nobody, talks to me in that manner and gets away with it!”Harold's brows instantly shot up as he gaped at her,“Do you think that's a good idea, Cassie?” He asked, his voice was laced with concern as he stared at his child,“Someone like you shouldn't be found in a filth like that. You're too classy.” he paused and then added, his voice

Cassandra seethed at him, shooting her brows up bedroom she glanced at Andrew with a quirked brow, Andrew shrugged in return, equally glaring at Richard who was still laughing,She couldn't take it anymore, his laughter was grating on her nerves, and so like a spoilt brat, Cassandra stomped her foot,“What the hell is funny you fool?! Stop laughing before you choke on your laughter!" Her eyes twinkled a little as she added,“Although, that really won't be a bad idea if you die” “You'd like that, wouldn't you?" Richard retorted with a smirk, as he spared Andrew a glance, who in turn sneered, curling his lips at him, before he strode forward, glaring intently at Richard,“You like to think you're smart, right Richard? You think of yourself as clever?” Getting closer to Richard's face, he snarled as he turned dramatically to Cassandra and spoke loudly,"But the thing is, you're nothing but a lowlife bum, a convict, of which you'll never be anything more, probably less”Walking towards

(Three Years Later) "Get these files and give them to the right department," Richard ordered, passing a file to a man standing before him. "Yes sir," The man nodded and took the files from Richard. "Do you need anything?" Richard finally raised his head from what he was doing to look at the man who was still standing. "Sir, I need you to approve my leave so I can take care of my wife who's about to give birth," The man said slowly, handing over a matter to Richard. "Alright, it's approved," Richard nodded and took the letter from the man. "Thank you, sir," The man beamed happily and quickly walked out of the office. Richard sighed and sat back on the chair after the man was out. It had been three years since everything. Andrew, Cassandra, and Harold were tried and thrown into prison. Justus, Aiden, Clinton, and Robin were also thrown into prison for fraud. The citizens of Dalton City demanded that Richard come back as the Mayor of the city. After much pleas and persuasion, h

Walking out of the office, the three walked out of the mayoral office only to be greeted by about five men who were in uniforms. Seeing the men, Andrew and Harold froze and it was as though their eyes would pop out of their sockets as they stared at the men. Slowly, they began to move back as though they had seen a ghost. "Father, Andrew, what the heck is wrong with both of you?" Cassandra frowned and stopped the two who were retreating slowly. "You should also go back; they are most probably here to arrest us," Harlod whispered to Cassandra, whose eyes flashed with panic. This must be Richard's fault. They were sure he was the one who invited them over. Apart from him, no one dared to make such a big move. Also, they were not expecting it. "Please stop moving back; we are going to assume you want to run away, and we would be forced to use force on you?" One of the men stepped forward, stating in a loud, cold voice, making the three stop in their tracks. The people before them

"What the heck is that bastard doing?" Andrew slapped the table angrily standing up from where he was.Somehow, some reporters had managed to get to the scene where Richard was arresting Aiden.And in the end, the citizens were praising Richard for arresting the miscreants. Then a torrent of curses was sent towards Andrew and it was said he knew nothing but to say things that were not true.This annoyed Andrew, but there was nothing he could do about it."You saw why I said we can't let him live," Cassandra, who had been silent all along, broke the silence, and the two couldn't help but nod.She was right, there was no way they would allow Richard to live. He was just too damn dangerous."So do you still think we should take the killing seriously, or we should continue to look at him," Cassandra stared at the two men and inquired."We should get rid of him for good this time, else, he won't spare us," Harold shook his head.He knew if Richard was to know they wanted to kill him, he w

"If that's the case, why don't you just let us search the house?" One of the policemen frowned and spoke."If you were to search the house, you would also be wasting your time as you wouldn't be able to find them either," Alice shook her head, wondering if this set of people were dumb."Seems like you don't believe it?" Richard smirked, staring at the police officers."Since that's the case, then go and search the house," Richard continued, waving his hands allowing them to go search the house."You can go," Vivienne nodded and allowed the men to go into the house to search.Though she trusted Richard, her men seemed to have doubts. So she had no other choice but to let them clear their doubts by going into the house."But how did you know all of these?" Vivienne asked, staring at Richard."That's because Clinton is not an ordinary Criminal," Richard answered with a smile.He knew how Clinton's mind worked. So he was very sure he was still in the house."Look at his style. He knows

"Fuck!" Aiden, who was typing with all of his might, suddenly cursed. "Who the heck is playing with me?" He yelled, banging the table. He had been trying to hack into the place, but for some reason, he was not able to do it. At some point, the other person seemed to have given up and left. But he didn't and continued to fight with the other party. After a while, he realized the other party didn't even take him seriously at all and this made him annoyed. "What's wrong?" Clinton, who had been packing, rushed into the room and asked what was wrong. "You won't believe this guy is playing with me?" Aiden spoke, fury could be felt in his voice. "What do you mean by that?" Clinton asked slowly, the expression on his face changed. "He's not taking me seriously at all. He's not even trying to defend the place. More like he's just forcing me, wanting me to make mistakes," Hearing this, Clinton's eyes opened wide. While he was at the Mayoral office, they didn't have anyone with that sk

"The universe is on our side," Andrew laughed loudly, walking into the office; the smile on his face was as wide as anything."What's happening?" Harold, who had been waiting for Andrew to return, stared at him, waiting for the news."Well, it's just that our team was able to block Aiden from entering and the money is still intact," Andrew laughed, sitting on the sofa."That's good news," Harold nodded, agreeing almost Instantly.Now that they have been able to block Aiden. All that remained was to attack Richard right?"Richard has not yet taken the bait, has he?" Harold asked a frown emerging on his face."You don't need to worry about that, I'm sure he's still pretending. We still have a lot of time. All we have to do is pretend the money is still there." "And if he doesn't take the money, we can still pin the blame on him, it would still be the same outcome anyways,""Good, good," Harold agreed, nodding happily.He was very satisfied with the way Andrew acted. He was sure that th

"Richard!" Vivienne froze upon hearing the voice; the next moment, she pulled out of her shock and ran towards Richard, who was standing with Alice and embraced him tightly."Tell me, how did you know it was a trap?" Richard's low voice came again as he held Vivienne in his arms."It's easy to guess," Vivienne chuckled,"Who would be crazy to use that much as bait?" Vivienne laughed, still not releasing Richard."And since you dared do that. Naturally, you were not doing it for free, or were you?""You know me quite too well," Richard rubbed his nose hearing what she said.Though her analysis was quite off the mark, he couldn't say that she was wrong. He was the only one who would do such a thing and take such a risk.Apart from him, no one in the world would be willing to do such shit, so there was no need to look around."It's fine Vivienne, I'm here now," Richard smiled, patting Vivienne's back.It was not until then she disengaged from the hug and stared at him with a smile on he

"Aren't you going to come along?" Richard glanced at Alice who was lying lazily on the sofa as though she didn't want to come along.After he revived the message from Richard, he immediately called Justin and asked him to come over, so they would go and arrest Justus.Now Justin and the others were waiting for him at the door."I'm coming," Alice stood up almost instantly, following Richard.She was not surprised that Richard's men had found out about Justus' location. She wanted to see what Justus would do. Also, she didn't know where the hideout was.So, there was no way he would blame her. Besides, he had abandoned her all to Richard.If it were not for the fact that Richard was a good person and was even willing to welcome her, she wouldn't know how miserable her life would have been.Just as the two were about to step out, Richard's phone rang. Pulling out the phone, Richard saw it was Franklyn."Sir, Andrew has withdrawn the money from the account," Franklyn reported, there wa
Chapter 205
"Now, this is what I call easy prey," Franklyn's eyes flashed with a glint as he typed away.He had already caught onto Justus's location and had immediately texted it to Richard right away.He would have called, but he knew the two would break into the place once he was distracted.The one billion was Richard's money, there was no way he would allow something to happen to it.He had to make sure he protected it with all of his might. Also, he was sure that Richard was expecting his message, so he was not worried at all.He knew Richard would know he was not trying to run away from responsibilities.Just as he was doing all of this, he saw Andrew walk into the finance office..Before he could say anything. More than half of the money had been withdrawn. He knew this was Andrew's work."How dare you try to steal Sir Richard's money?" Franklyn growled, feeling rather annoyed.What the heck was Andrew thinking? He wanted to spend Richard's money? That was not going to be possible.He was
