Rise Of The Penniless Trillionaire Chapter 19
Despite having a very early morning business meeting that morning, Jason still made it to school very early. If there was anything admirable about how Alex and his entire team worked on his schedule, it was their ability to stick to time.It was as though he left the businessman in him in the chopper that brought him to school before he alighted because he began to search for Beverly with his eyes almost immediately.As usual, everyone gathered to watch him glide out of the chopper and into the school premises. He was not surprised at the way they cooed upon his arrival. He had been trending on social media for days as the youngest billionaire who won the trillion-dollar contract for his company with his impeccable proposal.The news had shaken up the whole place, and instead of basking in the glory of it all, he only wanted to do more and make his father proud.As he walked into the school premises, he seemed untouchable. The guys waved at him to show him that he was welcome in the

"Okay, now you can be convinced that this woman is not to be trusted," Caleb said as they watched her from where they stood."What do you mean?" Jason asked, slightly irritated by what Caleb was saying."The principal told us that it was an emergency with her son and here she is, having a swell time with her so-called sick son," Caleb said."That does not make her a terrible person, Caleb," Jason snapped. "She probably had a reason for doing this."Well, I just hope that your benefit of the doubt can go all the way to accommodate other secrets that she probably might be hiding from you," Caleb said, grabbing a packet of juice for himself from the shelf.Jason

Jason knew that it was a dangerous game he was playing, but he was willing to go ahead with it. He wanted to know her and the only thing on his mind was that she was giving him the audience he needed. "So Damian," she began. "How did you get my number?" She asked. He slipped his hand in his pocket as he moved about his bedroom. "Let us just say that I saw you, I liked you and I went over and beyond to get to speak to you," he replied, surprised at his smooth flow of words. She brought that out of him, and he was pleased. "Maybe if you had spoken to me in person, I would have appreciated it more," she said. Jason let out a small laugh as he remembered the first day he spoke to her. She was so mean to him, which was probably because of how her mood was on that day.He spoke at length to her and told her that he was an architect and did not live in her city. She was impressed at his achievements and said that she would like to see some of his designs.If he had not glanced at the t

Alex was at Jason's house before the break of dawn for the work he had for the day. Jason told him that he would not be having so much time after school and that it would be better if they did their work in the morning before he headed for school.It meant that he had to wake up early. He had not been having enough sleep because he spent most of his time speaking with Beverly over the phone. It was weird to sit in her class and not smile at her.She had noticed him smile at her on two occasions, but she was not responsive. She probably thought that he was just some keen student who liked her teaching.They were soon done with their work, and Jason began to get ready for school. Alex helped him order some breakfast, and soon, they were on their way to school.Alex looked at Jason from the side of his eyes as he typed furiously and excitedly on his phone, like he was hungry for something.He had noticed for a fortnight now, that Jason was always on his phone. It was only fair that he

"Your father asked to see you," Alex informed Jason as they took a flight back home from one of their hotels. He had traveled out of town as they intended to establish a hospitality group in one of their new hotels. He wanted to handle the project himself because he was not sure that he could trust their competence to handle it. Alex even thought that it was going to be a good decision for him to handle it. He was exhausted from the meeting and all he wanted to do was to sleep, but the mere thought of meeting with his father frightened him. "Does he know about Beverly?" Jason asked Alex."You call her by her first name now?" Alex retorted, a bit surprised."Well, I met her first as Beverly and not as my professor.""That does not mean that you would go cordial on her that fast now that you know that she is your professor," Alex said. Jason was irritated. He was tired of everyone telling him what to do with Beverly. As far as he was concerned, they were in a good place, and he l

When Jason saw Beverly in school the next day and waved at her, he wished that she knew that she had seen him just as she wanted. He had told her last night that he would soon make it into the country as he was just away for business abroad. She had agreed that they would meet up in the summer. Jason agreed to it. He had a long time before summer to think of what to say to her. She did not wave back at him when he waved, and he sensed that her countenance was not right. He decided that he was eventually going to find out, but she was not willing to give him a chance to speak to her.It was soon time for her class, and she was still not in a good mood. She tried to avoid his eyes and focus on her teaching. Not once did she bother to glance his way, and it was disturbing to him."Did you both have a fight?" Caleb asked as he noticed the tension between them."I'm confused," Jason said. "Are you sure that she has not found out that you are Damian?" Caleb asked."I don't think so, b

Jason followed after Beverly. Since she told him off, he had not seen her in school for two days and he had been bothered about her. He asked Caleb about it and he said that the principal informed them that she was absent and had not given her any reason.He called her phone immediately and when she answered, she sounded as though she was troubled about something."Didn't you go to work?" He asked her."I did not. I had something to do," she replied curtly with a demeanor that was not hers. He knew that something was wrong, but he wanted to be told when she was ready. He did not want to press her. "What was it that you had to do?" He asked her calmly. She was quiet for a while, as though she would not speak to him again. "Damian," she began. "There is something that I need to tell you and you may hate me for this," she said."What is it?" He asked her sharply, knowing within himself that whatever it was, he was willing to forgive her. Just then, he heard the voice of a little boy

As the day of the party drew closer, Jason was suddenly nervous. He was not sure he was ready to become chairman with the livelihood of over seventy thousand employees in his hands. Preparations were going on, and their house was a beehive of activities. His father wanted everything to be perfect, but Emilia took the work into her own hands. She hired ten event planners, excluding their designers. She hired a team of designers to style her, her husband, and her children. She was not thinking about Jason, who was the star of the occasion, or she just wanted to ignore him. He had met her son on two separate occasions, and they had been cool with each other, but she was not in support of their relationship. She always scolded him when she saw her son talking to him, but Jacob, her son, thought that Jason was a good role model, juggling work and school together.On the other hand, Miranda, her daughter, had a silly crush on him, and she had approached him on one occasion and told him

On the day Daphne was discharged from the hospital, she decided that she wanted to go see her father in jail. Jason suggested against it, but she was not willing to comply. She had her reasons and when she persisted, he let her be. She took her child with her as well, and Jason's hands were tied as he knew that their relationship was stiff at the moment. There was no need to aggravate it.“At least allow me to come with you so that I can keep an eye on you and the baby,” she offered. “I want to do this on my own. I have my reasons,” she said to him. “And before you act stupid, don't ask any of your men to follow me,” she added before she got into the waiting car. She knew however that he would not just let her go like that without company. She could already see two cars following after her at a reasonable distance, but she did not mind. She needed the protection anyway.&nb

Jason waited until it was nightfall before he headed to the safehouse where Gustavo had kept Angelina. He wanted to be as discreet as possible, and Gustavo had been high on surveillance since Jason told him what they needed to do. When they got to the safehouse, another round of surveillance was done before the door of the car was opened for him to come down. He headed to the front door and headed to the stairs that led to the basement.Angelina was tied to a chair in the relatively empty and spacious basement, and it was a bit chilly, so she was asleep. He stood at a reasonable distance before her and stared at her for a while. It was almost unbelievable to him that she was at his mercy at this time. She was supposed to be the most powerful woman in the state, but she was crippled at his mercy.“Wake her up,” he finally ordered. A bucket of wat

The meeting that Klaus called for was one that Jason did not want to attend. It was as though there was something that he harbored within him, a kind of guilt that washed over him. However, he knew that if he did not attend, Klaus would be highly suspicious because he had a fallout with Angelina. One more seat was empty when he got to the venue. It was Angelina's seat, and the table was quiet, as Siman and Rasheed were not so much of the talkers. As expected, Klaus was unhappy, but this time, he was not pacing about like one without a purpose. He was just sitting quietly, as though he was in deep thought. Jason took his seat and stayed silent as well. He did not intend to break the silence that had ensued, so he just kept his cool. “I have not seen or heard from Angelina in four days,” Klaus began. “I have sent her a ton of messages, and I cannot get to her assistant as well.” Gustavo had made sure that there was a heavy massacre in the warehouse that day. He made sure that none of A

Jason woke up with a start and looked around him. A wave of relief overshadowed him as he discovered that he was in his bedroom. He looked to the side and saw that there was a drip bag attached to his hand. As he attempted to lift his hand, a sharp pain shot through his arm and his shoulder, forcing him to let out a loud groan and fall back on the bed. He soon began to recall what had happened the previous night, and all the events came rushing back at him. It made him panic as he did not see Daphne or the baby in the bedroom with him. He struggled to get up again and pulled away the drip on his hand. He stood up and attempted to walk out. He wobbled and landed on the floor, causing a loud noise. The door opened and Gustavo walked in to help him get back on the bed. Jason closed his eyes in exhaustion. “I decided to bring you home because I did not think that you would like the attention that staying in the hospital would cause you,” Gustavo began. “That's a very good decision,” Jaso

“First of all, I want you to start with the way you took Maxwell down,” she began, and Jason glanced at Daphne, who seemed to be listening keenly as well. She would be so disappointed. “Oh! She does not know?” Angelina asked. “Can you just stop?” Jason asked her. “So, the woman that you claim to love is not aware that you are the one that put her father in jail, and soiled her family reputation, right?” She continued. “I'm not going to say anything about that,” Jason sounded firm. He did not intend to spill, and he was not just making up his mind at the moment. He had decided not to spill anything since he left his house. He saw how desperate she was for his confession, and he wanted to use that to his advantage. “Before I say anything, I would like you to tell me what manner of business you run here,” he said as he leaned in. “My merchandise is none of your business,” she said to him. “Well, if you need my confession, then you have to explain what this business is all about because

Jason got into the car, took a deep breath, and took out his phone to place a call to Angelina. Even though she had sent someone to monitor him as he drove to the address, she still asked him to be on a video call the entire time, to ensure that no one was in the car with him. He was getting exhausted from her rules, but he had to comply because of his family. She had proof that she was with them, and he was the only one that could rescue them. Gustavo had thought up a brilliant plan, and things were already in place, giving Jason added confidence. He was not too sure that his plan would work out, but in the end, he blamed it on the nerves. He started the car and began to drive without taking one more look at the screen, where Angelina was watching him. “You are cute by the way,” she began when the tense silence had lasted for a while. “I have envisioned you in my bed a couple of times, not gonna lie,” she continued. Jason swallowed hard at this statement. He was already disgusted. A

Jason clicked on the speaker button on the phone so that everyone could hear what the caller was going to say. The line was silent for a while, and Jason thought that it was just a prank call. “Hello Jason,” a familiar voice finally came on the line. It did not take him long to figure out who was on the line. He could detect Angelina's voice in a crowd. It was too deep for a female voice. “I am guessing that by now, you are shaken with fright at the disappearance of your wife and daughter,” she said with some kind of amusement in her voice. Her audacity annoyed him so much. “Angelina, I swear, if anything happens to them, you are going to regret it,” Jason fired at her. Ben immediately signaled him not to say anything again, so that they would not provoke her. Jason did not seem to care at all. He was just angry. “I would not be making threats if I were you,” she said. “You have no idea where I am or where your wife and child are, so I would be quiet and cooperate if I were you,” she

Jason was confused about what to do next at the moment. He kept trying to call her as he dashed to the elevator that led to the penthouse they occupied in the mansion. He prayed that by some miracle, Daphne was upstairs and sleeping peacefully with their son. That would give him so much relief. But when he got there, the room was empty. He went ahead to look into the bathroom but there was no one there. His heart began to thump loudly as he rushed downstairs again. Gustavo was waiting for him when he came downstairs. “I can't find Daphne and the baby,” Jason blurted out in a worrisome voice before Gustavo could even ask him what was wrong. “I had two of my men follow her to the hospital. Let me try to call them,” Gustavo said as he took out his phone. He was so calm, as though he was very confident that there was nothing wrong with them. Gustavo called them over and over again but none of them answered. He began to get worried as well. “This is very unusual,” Gustavo muttered as he

Chapter 200
Jason stood up from bed very early, as he had a long day ahead of him. It had been three weeks since Jacob had been released from jail, and just like he had promised, he decided that he would give Jacob an orientation to the family business. Daphne was still very fast asleep when he was done dressing for work. He could not blame her at all. She had been awake for some time during the night to cater to a crying Benjamin. After the nurse left, it had been difficult for her to adjust to taking care of the baby alone. At some point, it was as though she was getting frustrated with the responsibility that she was saddled with and she would start crying. When he noticed that, he would usually offer her a helping hand so that she would not feel abandoned or frustrated. She appreciated his support. It showed in the way she embraced him or the way she kissed him. Jason walked up to the bed and planted a kiss on her forehead, causing her to stir in her sleep. “I'm off to work, baby. You know I
