The next day, Wayne told his men to track down the person Aunt Matilda wanted to kill Mr. Leo."Teach him a lesson and ensure he ends up behind bars," Wayne ordered. Little did Wayne know, Aunt Matilda had bigger plans in store for him. She had no intentions of harming him or Amber. Days and weeks passed without any sign of the assassin."Don't give up until you find him," Wayne instructed his men."Our presentation is in a few hours, and this is the script for your speech. I hope you're not nervous because I am," Amber mumbled, handing Wayne a sheet of paper."We've got this, alright?" Wayne reassured her."Okay," Amber replied with a faint smile.As every employee gathered in the conference hall, including the entire Cooper family, Amber heaved in a deep breath peaking through the backstage, felt overwhelmed."I don't think I can do this," she confessed to Wayne, who was standing behind her."I'm right here with you. Don't worry about anything." Wayne said, and in a split second h
Wayne left his father's mansion and headed to the Cooper's home, anticipating their confrontation.In the living room, Mrs. Emilia sat on the oversized couch, glaring at Wayne."Where the hell were you? Why did you skip the presentation? Do you think we handed you that role for you to mess around? You ungrateful fool!" Mrs. Emilia yelled.Her voice drew the attention of the other family members.Wayne didn't utter a word. He knew things would get sorted out soon, and the Coopers wouldn't have a say any more."You're a good-for-nothing! You dare to meddle in our family business?" Mr. Nathan chimed in."Father, this man is incompetent. I want my position back. I promise not to repeat my mistake. Plus, we all know they can't handle this company," Aunt Matilda interjected."Exactly! Amber did well. Matilda, you can assist Amber. As for this man, he'll be back to doing household chores. He's not fit for any job since he can't get anything right," Mr. Cooper declared disappointly, followed
Drex refrained from harming the man. "How much are they?" Drex asked the sales manager."Five dollars, twenty-five cents," Mark responded. Drex paid for his packs of cigarettes, and decided to wait for the man in his car.He pulled out his phone from his trousers, and dialed Wayne's number. Wayne lay exhausted in his room, having completed all the household chores.Weary and drained, he maintained his facade, biding his time until the opportune moment to reveal his true identity.Abruptly, the door swung open, disrupting his moment of respite. Annoyed, Wayne turned to find Bailey standing before him."Hey, nanny, I need you to drive me to my hair appointment," Bailey demanded."I just finished all the chores, and I haven't eaten since morning. It's evening now. I really need some rest," Wayne replied, disinterestedly."Are you defying your duties? Get up and take me to my appointment; I can't be late. Otherwise, I'll inform my mother when she returns from work," Bailey threatene
The next morning, Aunt Matilda and her husband arrived at the company. "Good afternoon," Pedro greeted them. "How can we help you?" Aunt Matilda asked bluntly, turning to look at Mr Nathan in confusion, wondering why their boss's lawyer was in their office that morning. "Your boss told me to give you this letter," Pedro said, handing them an envelope. "What is this?" said Mr Nathan, taking the envelope and opening it to see what was inside. He took out the piece of paper and ran his eyes over it, while Aunt Matilda watched him closely, eager to hear what the letter said. "What....Why?" Mr Nathan shouted, turning to Aunt Matilda in shock. "What does it say dear, what's wrong?" Aunt Matilda asked, her heart pounding with every beat. "We... we are fired," Mr Nathan stammered. Aunt Matilda was stunned, she couldn't believe what she had just heard. "No, no, you must have read it wrong, I'm sure you misunderstood the handwriting," Aunt Matilda said, forcing a smile as she took the
"One of Drex's men grabbed the assassin's left hand and placed it on the table in front of Wayne. Wayne looked deep into the man's eyes and grinned as he tried to pull one of his fingers away. "Please, no, I will tell you, please I will talk!" The man begged, then Wayne pulled back. "I'm listening!" Wayne said curiously. "It's Jeremy!" The assassin muttered. "What do you mean? Who's Jeremy?" Wayne asked. "Your brother," the assassin said as Wayne burst out laughing. Wayne never had a brother. "You're so ridiculous, you think I'm here for jokes, huh? I don't want to waste my precious time with you," Wayne said, turning his gaze to Drex. "Drex, torture him until he tells the truth, make him feel pain," Wayne ordered. "Boss, he is right," Drex muttered, bowing his head to the ground in fear. "What do you mean he's right, have you all gone mad?" Wayne shouted turning to each of them but he could see the seriousness in their faces, that's when Wayne realised it wasn't a joke. Wayn
After much discussion between Wayne and his father, Wayne decided to move out of the Coopers' house and into his huge mansion so that he could plan better, for who knew if he was Jeremy's next target. "Hey idiot, I've been looking for you all day," Aunt Matilda said to Wayne as she walked towards him in the hallway. "Why?" Wayne asked. "How dare you ask me why, aren't you a slave to this family?" Aunt Matilda asked, her eyes were swollen, it looked like she had been crying all day because she had been fired and now she wanted to take out her frustration on Wayne but there was no way she was going to do that this time, it was time for Wayne to leave and make better plans for his life, he didn't care if the Cooper's found out his true identity as the richest man in town but even if they did it wouldn't stop Wayne from making the Cooper's pay for what they had done. "Now listen, I have some dirty laundry in my room, I need you to go and wash it now," Aunt Matilda ordered. "No," Wayn
"How dare he do this to Father! What has come over him?" Aunt Matilda shouted. The whole family gathered around, Mr Cooper still in great pain. "Why did he leave all of a sudden? And what did he mean when he said we had no idea who he was?" Mrs Emilia asked in confusion. Amber stood there speechless, she couldn't explain what was going on, she didn't even know who Wayne really was, she didn't care to ask or get to know him better, after all he was just a useless, dirty husband to her and her family. Wayne walked into his mansion, he stood outside to take in the view, after all he was a trillionaire, he didn't care about hiding anymore, he didn't care if the Coopers found out his true identity. The grand mansion was a stunning sight to behold, with its towering columns and numerous balconies overlooking the countryside. Wayne was amazed as he looked around with a sense of satisfaction; the mansion had been built not just as a home but as a statement of wealth, power and status. It
"Go--good morning," Amber stuttered, Wayne was surprised to hear Amber sound like that, she must have found out about his true identity and now she was afraid to talk to him like she used to. "Good morning Amber, how can I help you?" Wayne asked. "Is--is it true?" Amber mumbled. "Is what true?" Wayne asked, pretending not to know what she was about to ask. " You're Mr Bruce's only son? he's only heir? you're rich?" Amber asked and before Amber could finish her statement, Wayne burst into laughter then he said to her mockingly. "No, that's not true, I'm still a poor and useless husband, don't you agree?" "No, I heard it from Aunt Matilda, tell me the truth, you're the richest man in town? you don't have to pretend to me, I am your wife remember," Amber mumbled "Wait, now you're agreeing to be my wife? No wonder you decided to call me after so long. Well to answer your questions, I am indeed a trillionaire, and I live in a bigger mansion, I own different million dollars sp
