Richard Day's Legacy Chapter 026
Immediately, Andrew's team opened the suitcases. However, they uncovered more evidence of Richard's good works; these sets contained letters of gratitude from both old and young, even the rich and people of influence as well as the poor. These notes showed Richard's dedication and love for helping others. Andrew stormed his foot, covering his trembling lips with his fist. Some of the officials once again picked up a few notes as they glanced through it, “OMG, this is from Mr Eric Moore the popular billionaire in Ashton! He thanked Mayor Richard for healing him and he also included that he sent over the fifty million Mayor Richard had rejected” “You won't believe what's in my hand. Lady Mae Whitefield wrote a love letter to him, professing her love. She says there's no man that can compare to him” the person lifted his head and nodded with a smile, "That I can agree” before he went on, "She also included the sum of a hundred million as a token of her love! This must be a film se

Andrew shook his head, as he lowered it, staring at his feet, unable to make eye contact with anyone of them, “We thought so. You're just spewing trash” one of the officials scoffed as he eyed Andrew.Unable to meet or take their gaze, Andrew shuffled out of there, his cheeks cherry red and his mind reeling with different thoughts, but topmost on his mind was the fact that he had to reach out to Harold and update him on the situation,Their hopes of using the videos that he had recorded were currently dashed; they couldn't present it as evidence to the government representative that Harold was gathering. Andrew’s darkened expression broke into a small smile at the realization that he had not sent the videos to Harold; all he had to do was make a call to inform him to postpone the meeting.His smile widening further, he glanced at his phone to place the call and as he saw the screen, his heart began thumping, beads of sweat appearing on his forehead,‘What have I done?’ he mumbled to

With his eyes still shut, Andrew inhaled sharply before speaking,“I have made a grave mistake Harold. The damned boxes didn't contain any more valuables or even evidence of Richard's embezzlement!” He huffed, slamming his clenched fist to his forehead as he went on,"The blasted boxes were filled with letters of gratitude from people the fool had helped; the bastard even has time, the finances, and medical expertise to heal both the rich and the impoverished. Who the hell keeps papers in their homes if not that fool”Andrew exclaimed, running his hands through his hair as he expelled a breath. At the other end, Harold went completely still, before he finally found his voice that had gone stunned,“W-what? That's… that's impossible. Oh God! I need to make a call to avert this pending doom! No no no”Harold exclaimed wearily as he cut the call, immediately loosening his tie as he was beginning to feel choked up. He immediately placed a call to Dan Morris, Andrew's father, wiping at hi

While the journalist Taylor was working on vindicating Richard, Dan Morris had gathered his colleagues and top officials to his office, making sure to pop champagne, his most expensive one as he was in a celebratory mood, telling jokes and throwing his head back in laughter. He didn't fail to also remind them why they were celebrating and whom they were celebrating, “My son Richard? You should know him. The boy is doing great work in Dalton City. Would you believe…" his eyes shone with pride as he took a sip of his champagne and tipped his glass in the direction of his counterparts before he went on, still smiling, “Would you believe that he was instrumental in the arrest and capturing of their acting mayor, who's nothing but a corrupt fraud and has been embezzling government funds for himself? Andrew uncovered all of that!” He declared with a puff out chest, and as he spoke, he closely watched others to gauge their reactions to his disclosed information. “You don't say! You mu

Unaware of the new development, Dan was still bragging about Andrew, telling all who cared to listen how great his son was,“One would think that the son in question is the new Messiah" Donald mumbled beneath his breath, his voice barely a whisper.Dan who had heard a snippet of his words snapped his head while narrowing his eyes at Donald,“What Mr Curry? Did you say something or do you have something to say to us?" He challenged him with a thrust of his chin, and Donald cackled, his face a mix of mockery and pity,"Yes I did, in fact, I do have something to say" Donald retorted, getting into Dan's face, he glanced around before he continued,“Your son isn't the savior you have made him out to be. He's nothing but a fool who has made a mockery of himself and your family name”His words angered Dan, whose eyes had become reddened while glaring at him, with nostrils flaring, Dan shouted,“How dare you! What gives you the audacity to-”"Don't you dare yell at me. Your son is incompeten

“You bastard!" Dan screeched as soon as Harold picked up the call, causing Harold to flinch at the other end,“M-mr Morris, i-it's not what you-”"Don't you dare try to sound foolish you old fool! How dare you send me information without verifying it first?! Do you know what you have done? What you have caused?”Dan asked, throwing questions at him without waiting for Harold's response who rubbed his hand over his face sighing deeply,“I'm sorry Sir. It was a mistake on my part. I really thought we had him" Harold conceded, and Dan scoffed in response,“Well you didn't and now you've ruined my social standing!” he retorted with a sneer, before adding,“Fix it! Ensure you fix it! Do all you can to fix this mess and make sure my son comes out of this unscathed!”Dan commanded and hung the call, his cheeks still blazing. He lifted his head to see the officials still sniggering at him, and he clenched his fist,“I can assure you that I'll get to the bottom of this. I've been told it was

While Andrew was busy imagining the suffering he was sure Richard was going through; the mosquitoes sucking his blood endlessly, the filth he was living in as well as the terrible food that wasn't even fit for dogs that Richard was surely forced to eat, Vivienne was busy with the opposite,She walked into the prison with her head held high, her heels clicking on the hard floor. At her appearance, one of the wardens hurried towards her,“You're welcome back Ma'am. How can we help you?” He asked,Vivienne shrugged in response,“Just here to make sure Mayor Richard is comfortable while staying here. The arrangements we have in place doesn't seem to be enough”The warden didn't seem to understand what she meant by her words as they already had state-of-the-art facilities in place for him, something that nobody else had. The man was being treated like a king, he looked at her with a confused look,“H-how do you mean Ma? His cell is already comfortable, all of the prisoners envy him”Vivien

He had a brooding look on his face as he stared at the computer before him and the lists that were spread across his table,He was in his early thirties and had lovely green eyes that were currently boring through the computer. He was still struggling to make ends meet; his patrons had greatly reduced, and he was finding it difficult to keep his bar afloat.Still lost in thought and feeling desolate, he grumbled, his eyes narrowing at nothing in particular,‘Damn you Richard Day’ he growled Just as Aiden was getting into his pity party, while feeling like there was no way through, Jacob barged into his office, nearly out of breath.Lifting his eyes to glare at the intruder, Aiden hissed before arching his brow at his assistant,“Tell me, do you have a knack for barging into my office, Jacob, or perhaps you have a death wish.” Scowling at him, he added, The latte

Back in Clinton's house, where he and Aiden were still hiding and plotting, Aiden turned to stare at Clinton,"Clinton, do you have other plans?" he asked Clinton who was standing by the window watching the raindrop,"Nope," Clinton shook his head, still observing the raindrop, the frown on his face deepened,"What's wrong Clinton?" Aiden frowned, staring at Clinton, who was staring out of the window."We'll need to change our plans," Clinton sighed, shaking his head"Why?" Aiden was dumbfounded and he stared at Clinton, wondering what was wrong,"Another unstable factor has gotten into the game, and if we are not careful, we will end up in prison. And this time, there'll be no hope for us to escape," Clinton sighed, the sadness in his voice could be felt."And who's that?" Aiden asked, his face darkening as he spoke,First was the team that had snatched the money from them, now, someone else was going to enter the game.What the heck were they all thinking? Were they trying to hinde

"Huh?" Andrew and Cassandra froze hearing Harold's words, not believing their ears,Their first instinct was to say he was lying, but for the fact that they knew Harold, they couldn't voice out their thoughts.Harold observed the expression on their faces and couldn't help but shake his head,These two were naive, they didn't know whom they were fighting against; they had the guts to attack Richard without proper planning,What the hell had they been thinking?"So what are we going to do now?" Andrew suppressed his shock and asked,The sound of the rain falling heavily against the window panes could be heard almost drowning out his voice."I don't know," Harold shrugged,"What?!" Andrew and Cassandra froze once again not knowing what to say,"You don't believe me right?" Harold chuckled, seeing the expression on both their faces,The two nodded almost immediately while Harold chuckled; he was not lying, he really didn't know what to do.If he knew, he wouldn't be here sitting down st

"Are you really going to help us?" Cassandra's eyes lit up hearing her father's words.Though she had joined hands with someone else who then gave her the idea that she had used, then gave her ways to make evidence without it being doctored, she felt something was missing,The person had said he wanted only Vivienne, though she didn't know what he wanted to do with her; she felt he must have gotten whatever he wanted, or else he wouldn't have gone silent.Since then, she didn't know how to push forward, Andrew was too busy handling his affairs, so she was left to deal with the aftermath."There's nothing I can do, I can't just stay and watch you fail in what you started," Harlod spread his hands shaking his head showing his helplessness,The two hadn't informed him before taking such big plans; now it was obvious they were going down the drain; how could he sit and watch them?"I'll take you there, Dad," Cassandra offered excitedly, standing up from where she was sitting."Alright let

"A bet?" Alice mumbled, staring at Richard, wondering what the heck he was trying to drive at,"Yeah. As long as I fail to change the way the Public feels, then I'll let you go, else you'll answer any of my questions," Richard replied with a nod, his gleaming as he stared at her,Alice stared at Richard for a while, not saying anything; the terms of the bet were a bit lucrative.If she were to win the bet, she would be free, else she would be forced to tell Richard whatever he wanted to know,Though Richard didn't try to force her to say anything when he asked her who sent her, neither did he try to use any physiological tricks, she couldn't be careless."Since you're silent, I'll take it that you agree to the terms of the bet then," Richard sighed and stood up once again,"No, no, I don't," Alice hurriedly came back to her senses and shook her head, instantly turning down the offer,Though there was a chance that she would win, it was just one out of two; it was not certain.Also,

In just a few hours, the reputation you painstakingly buil

"This was just too much fun," Aiden laughed, walking back into the house,He couldn't help but imagine Andrew's annoyed expression while he called out his name,This was a very refreshing feeling for Aiden as he was sure the latter wouldn't be able to do anything.What about the police, they wouldn't even be able to search. Also, he instructed his men to appear only for a minute or two, then they should disappear,"Where's the mask?" Clinton's cold voice pulled Aiden out of his thoughts."Yes, I made sure to collect them back," Aiden chuckled, still feeling good,"So what's our next move?" He asked, throwing the bag back at Clinton who was standing just by the dining table,"Let's wait and prepare for the next heist. The police are too confused to start any search right away," Clinton answered, walking about to the chair,"So how are we going to deal with their other group?" Aiden continued with his series of questions."We can't let them off easily, we need to show them we are also

"Access the CCTV cameras of these places, I want to see if Aiden was there a few minutes ago," Justin added over the papers to one of the people in the control room,"Yes, Sir," The officer saluted him, then turned to salute Andrew, too, but Andrew was not in the mood for all of the frivolities and shenanigans,All he wanted was just to confirm if Aiden was found in one of the locations or not."Sir here's Aiden," the man immediately pointed at the screen, which showed Aiden, who was buying something from the store,"Check the next location," Justin commanded,"Yes, Sir," The man nodded, and his hands immediately started to fly around on the keyboard."Sir, there he is," he pointed at Aiden who was walking with a bag in hand with his head down,"How many minutes is between them?" Justin didn't come to conclusions, but first, he asked,"Sir, both are at 10:30 this morning," the officer at the table swallowed, also realizing something was off.There was no way one person would be in t

While all of this was going on, Andrew was in the financial team department pacing around with a dark expression.The workers there didn't dare to breathe too loudly, afraid they were going to make Andrew angrier,They didn't want to lose their jobs just yet. As for the person who had stolen the money, there were no traces.It was as if the money had vanished into thin air, even the bank had no idea where it was transferred to,Checking the account details, they realized it didn't exist which made them even more helpless."What should I tell these investors?" Andrew muttered still not knowing what to do.After a while, he stopped pacing around and walked towards the door of the financial department,"I don't want a word of what happened today to leave this place," he commanded, his voice devoid of emotions carrying a faint hint of threat within."Yes Sir, we'll make sure to guard this secret with our lives," The workers swallowed all saying the same thing."You better do, else..."
