Richard Day's Legacy Chapter 113
The smell of freshly brewed coffee blended with the subtle perfume of worn books and polished wood, creating a crisp atmosphere in Tony Caldwell's workplace,It was a place of power, not the corruption-derived kind, but the power that comes from experience, fortitude, and well-considered choices.Andrew Morris had walked into other offices like this one, where prominent figures sat behind opulent desks, their names inscribed on plaques, and their photos hung on the walls as a constant reminder of their legacy,However, this was not like the others because he was ready to confront a leader who wasn’t just any leader but a legendary one.In addition to becoming Ravenwood's Mayor, Tony Caldwell was a legend; he had once been in Andrew's position, struggling to save his city from financial collapse after a scandal nearly brought it to ruin. But Tony, unlike Andrew, had made it through successfully,It was for this sole reason Andrew sought him out, to ask for his help as he was in dire ne

Andrew's breath seized in his throat, his eyes were still widened as he sat upright and tried protesting,"It's not just about my city," as he spoke, his voice began rising,"Leadership is key. It's all about being truthful. You battled your way out of a challenging circumstance, teach me to follow suit."For a moment, Tony gazed at him, his eyes evaluating, scrutinizing. At last, he leaned forward a little and spoke in a low murmur,"You want to learn from me, Andrew?"Andrew desperately, nodded.“Andrew, I didn’t merely battle my way out of a bad situation. I bled for it. You wouldn’t even comprehend the sacrifices I made. You? You’re looking for a shortcut, and that’s why you’re here.”Andrew tensed. “That’s not true.”Tony raised an eyebrow,“Isn’t it? You wouldn’t be here if you had the intuition, the ability, and the vision. You would’ve started fixing Dalton on your own by now.”Andrew turned his head away.Tony leaned back in his seat,“Andrew, that’s why you’re failing. You w

With Andrew running helter-skelter looking for help in the predicament he found himself in, Cassandra was busy with her father who had finally been discharged from the hospital,"Dad, be careful," Cassandra smiled as she helped her father into the house, her father had been discharged after the incident as he had gotten better, but it was still difficult for him to walk,Hence Cassandra had no other choice but to help Harold into the house. As she walked, she found herself grateful that her father was still alive, as the accident had almost had him killed, it was surely a miracle that Harold Delaney was alive."Father, you take a seat, I'll prepare you a meal," Cassandra broke the silence as she helped her father sit, after handing him the remote to the TV, making sure he was comfortable and content with the fruits and drinks she kept beside him.Walking into the kitchen, Cassandra sighed as she started cooking; looking at the empty kitchen, for a moment, she couldn't help but tense

While Cassandra was busy thinking of non-existent life, Vivienne was once again keeping Richard company in his cell, as she also recollected the events of the past days,Aside from the soft voices that trailed from the television, the room was a little quiet,Smiling softly, Vivienne subtly watched him, the smile lighting up a glow in her eyes as she watched him,Vivienne was still unable to get over the fact that Richard had saved her life, not just saved but bravely saved her life. She knew he respected her to a large extent, but his beating up someone on her behalf was a new discovery.Her eyes were bright as she gazed at him, a visible flush appearing on her cheeks as she reminisced on the incident. Her eyes still twinkling, she leaned forward while still smiling, she cleared her throat, trying to get his attention,"May- Richard, thanks for saving me the other day," she smiled softly, staring at Richard whose eyes were still glued to the television.She couldn't decipher if he wa

"What should I do?" Andrew muttered to himself, under his breath, his gaze darting around his surroundings,He had been thinking of a way to make Tony do what he wanted, as the latter seemed rather stubborn.All because he had opposed Richard, he was unwilling to help him. Andrew sneered as he recollected Tony's refusal to help him,“Who does that?" He mused loudly, staring darkly,Apparently, no one but the selfish Tony Caldwell didn't see that Andrew was only after the prosperity of his city, yet for his selfish reason, he was unwilling to understand or even lend a helping hand.“Stupid fool who thinks he's all that!" Andrew continued with his complaints, mumbling and narrowing his eyes at nothing in particular.The more he pondered on the situation, the more a sinister thought crept up his mind; if push came to shove, he wouldn't mind making use of extreme measures, and he definitely wasn't going to spare the stupid Tony,As he paced the ground, Andrew continued muttering, his eye

While Richard was still recovering from the shared moment with Vivienne, Cassandra was trying to scheme her way through him,After leaving her father in the care of a nurse, she had gone out to seek Richard out, and was currently sitting before him with a smile on her face, lowering her eyes a little,Although she was sat in front of him, Richard was yet to acknowledge her presence for the last thirty minutes, and hadn't bothered saying a word to her,Since she came in, he had not even given her a glance; this was the first time he was looking at her.Cassandra sighed as she waited patiently for Richard to finish what he was doing, fiddling with the hem of her skirt,Though she felt extremely uneasy, she could tell from the way he was staring at her that she was not welcome, but she couldn't care less.He had always been like this even in the past, if he was busy, then no one dared to disturb him,Though he didn't look like he was doing anything and seemed to be just intentionally ign

"Sir, you have a visitor," One of Andrew's men rushed over just as he was about to walk out of the office, Andrew's brows furrowed at the words, "A visitor?" He questioned, freezing on the spot as his brows shot up a little, the corners of his eyes squinting; he wasn't expecting anyone. "Do you know who it is?" He asked, storming through his brain for a moment before raising his head to look at the man, The man shook his head as he equally responded, "Well, sir, no..." pausing a little before answering, At his confirmation, Andrew's brows creased further, "No?" Andrew suddenly found himself wondering who had come visiting, he wasn't expecting anyone. Was it someone from the capital, or had his father sent some people over? He couldn't think of anyone who could seek him out, except someone sent by his father. Raising his head, he arched his brow at the man, "Are you sure it's not one of those old men's representatives?" he asked, the expression on his face changi

"Not to waste too much time as I believe you also have things to do," Noah broke the silence, pushing the thoughts to the back of his mind.Since Andrew was this way, there was no need to think of a way to convince him."What do you need?" Andrew inquired. At this time, he had calmed down considerably, at least, he was no longer sweating,"As I said before, I'm Noah Parker, from the Parker family," Noah stared at Andrew, then paused before he continued,"I know you might not have heard of Parker's family, but that's not important." He continued, his voice becoming serious,"I heard there are quite several natural resources in this City, so we would like to cooperate with you to lend us a hand in extracting the natural resources."Andrew's expression changed upon hearing this. He should have known that this was what they wanted,"I....""You don't have to be in a hurry to disagree," Noah waved his hands, interrupting Andrew."Listen to me first, after everything, you can decide if

(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
