Rise Of The Disrespected Trillionaire Heir SEVENTY ONE – BAD NEWS
“What did you say?” Luke asked in disbelief.“The car was found and has been returned to its position, your lordship. Our engineers have checked it and nothing seems to be wrong.”“Is this some kind of sick joke? What the hell is going on here?”The engineer shook his head.“Yes, sir. I actually do believe someone is trying to play games.”“Where were the guards when the car was taken? Where was it found?”“Er… Luke?” Nina called, her lips pulled in an uneasy smile.“Yes?”“You’re still on stage.”Appalled, Luke turned to see nearly half of the audience looking at him like he’d gone psycho. His ears heated in embarrassment but he was saved when the MC climbed atop the stage and said;“Your lordship, you’ve got barely fifteen minutes to showcase your invention. The judges are waiting.”That statement immediately propelled Luke into action.“Yes, yes, of course.” He regained control of the microphone and addressed the crowd.“I’m deeply sorry that you all had to witness that but we see
Rise Of The Disrespected Trillionaire Heir SEVENTY TWO — EXPOSING A CHEAT
Luke was on the very edge of losing his mind. This morning had started off perfectly. Now in the space of a few hours, his car was stolen, returned and the controls were no longer working?“Mr. Luke George, what, pray tell, is the delay up there?” One of the judges asked.Completely oblivious of how to handle the situation but still struggling to keep his cool, Luke turned to the panel of judges;“I sincerely apologise for the delay, ladies and gentlemen.”“This is the third time you’re apologising for a delay, Mr. Luke.” The first judge sneered. “If you’re not ready for the competition, I suggest you come back next year.”Appalled, Luke turned towards his engineers who equally looked helpless.“What the fuck did you say is going on here?”“Sir, none of the controls are working. The only way we can demonstrate the Super Mobile’s strengths is if those controls are working. So far, all of them seemed to be broken when the car was found.”Luke shut his eyes for a few seconds, his shoulde
Rise Of The Disrespected Trillionaire Heir SEVENTY THREE – OUT IN THE OPEN
All the guests watched on in shock, some even whipped out their phones to record the embarrassing situation. Luke, however, did not care. He was hell bent on proving that Andrei was a complete cheat.“Mr. Luke, is this because you’ve already gotten information that you bagged the worst project award for the competition?”Luke’s eyes narrowed.“What?”The MC shrugged.“You heard me, sir. The judges believed that of all the projects presented here thus far, yours was the worst. Not only did you waste a lot of our time, you ended up not being able to prove that your acclaimed Super Power Mobile could perform any of the functions which you said it could. Hence, the judges came to a unanimous decision that you and your project deserve the loser award.”Whispers rippled through the crowd as everyone waited patiently for Luke’s next course of action.“My project did not work out because it was hijacked!” Luke bellowed. “My car was stolen, tampered with and returned with one hundred percent d
Rise Of The Disrespected Trillionaire Heir SEVENTY FOUR – WHEN THREATS BEGIN TO FLY…
Luke took in the scene unfolding before him with a satisfied grin playing out on his lips. The conference had been brought to a premature end because of the entire Antoine debacle but he couldn’t care less because his grandfather was currently being congratulated and praised over Luke’s ability to discover Antoine’s crimes and bring him to justice.Prominent news and radio channels in London had covered the entirety of this evening’s happenings. Luke was certain that by tomorrow, news of Antoine's arrest will probably reach every nook and cranny of the earth… including his home country, France.However, just when happiness was within reach, the ugly hands of fate struck yet again.With a furrowed expression, Luke watched his grandfather excuse himself from the crowd to take a phone call. He noticed that Lord George’s expression soured immediately he looked down at the screen and discovered who the caller was.Call it a gut feeling but something told him to follow behind and find out
Rise Of The Disrespected Trillionaire Heir SEVENTY FIVE – IMPOSSIBLE DEMANDS
The air in the room was stiff and cackling with tension. Luke could feel his grandfather’s burning stare as he thought of ways to avoid the questions he knew were coming.“Luke? Is that true? Did Fiona set up the hall for the conference today?”Luke's gaze clashed with his grandfather’s icy ones, his heart clenching when he saw the confusion and disbelief in the older man’s eyes.After a moment’s hesitation, completely ashamed, he lowered his gaze and nodded. “Yes, grandfather. She’s right.”“What?!” Lord George bellowed. “How the hell is that even possible? You told me that you had everything under control.”Luke shook his head, his guts tightening with rage when he saw Fiona’s smug expression.“After the event centre got burnt down, it was a real struggle to find another suitable place…”“Why didn’t you come to me for help, then?” Lord George cut in. “You were in a fix and instead of coming to your family for help, you decided to receive assistance from a stranger? And not just any
Rise Of The Disrespected Trillionaire Heir SEVENTY SIX – WHEN PLANS BACK FIRE
It was eight PM already and the Carmichaels were scheduled to arrive anytime now. Luke and his grandfather waited patiently on the porch for their arrival. Fifteen minutes later, the gates were pulled open and a gleaming black SUV rolled into the premises. Luke’s heartbeat accelerated in anticipation as the car rolled to a stop and a uniformed, middle aged driver quickly got down from the driver’s side to help them with their doors. Luke had no idea what his grandfather had planned for the Carmichaels but whatever it was, he knew it was going to be worth the wait.Finally, Mrs Carmichael was helped out of the car first, followed by Fiona and her father.Luke felt his grandfather visibly stiffen as they approached. Mrs Carmichael and Fiona had fake, wide smiles pasted on their faces. Luke did not bother returning the favour.“Luke!” Mrs Carmichael crowed. “Thank you so much for letting us stay here. We’re very grateful to you.” She moved in for a hug but Luke stepped back quickly, e
Rise Of The Disrespected Trillionaire Heir SEVENTY SEVEN – WHEN PLANS BACKFIRE…
Luke reeled in pleasant shock at his grandfather’s declaration. He was very much aware of the tiny building which had been erected six months ago for Lord George’s personal bodyguard. The house was barely spacious enough for one person, talk more of an entire family of three.The Carmichaels, on the other hand, looked like they’d been shot in the foot with a rifle. It took all of Luke’s self control not to burst into a fit of uncultured laughter at the look of horror on their faces.“What are you talking about?” Fiona whispered, her voice tinged with disbelief. “The agreement was that my family and I will stay in your mansion for two weeks, not the boys’ quarters.”“Exactly.” Lord George agreed with a tiny shrug. “Your deal clearly stated that you will stay in my mansion. This entire premises is my mansion, including the boys’ quarters.You never said that you’ll be at liberty to choose which part of the mansion you decide to stay in for the next two weeks… so I took the initiative a
Rise Of The Disrespected Trillionaire Heir SEVENTY EIGHT – ANGER…
Luke was literally dying of laughter as he led the Carmichaels to their new residence. He could not help the satisfaction that unfurled in his guts at the scoffs of disgust and discomfort that came from Mrs. Carmichael and Fiona when they arrived at the tiny cottage.“This is it. Welcome to your new home for the next two weeks.” Luke stepped aside, giving the Carmichaels the opportunity to take in their new home.Fiona looked around, her mouth pinched with disgust.“Luke, this wasn’t part of the plan and you know it.” She sneered. “Your grandfather has cheated us.”Luke gave her a stoic glare.“Fiona, I’m pretty sure my grandfather has sufficiently explained the circumstances surrounding your living conditions to you. Now, if you would excuse me, I have work to do.” That being said, Luke turned around and walked away without looking back. Fiona watched him leave, her guts burning with bitter anger. When he was completely out of sight and earshot, she stomped her left foot on the gro
