Mrs Devin was quite surprised to find an E cardholder dressed commonly, not just commonly but outdated.Derek's appearance spoke less of his personality.At first, Mrs Devin was quite skeptical about someone like him being in custody of an E card.Nevertheless, E card holders identity can never be impersonated, hence she believed him with cold chills rush down her spine."You are the branch head right? Derek turned to Mrs Devin after the manager's narration."Yes Mr I am…""I need five million dollars, right now! I need to withdraw it with immediate effect. If you don’t have enough cash here, you’d better call your superiors and get them to send it over now. I want cash.” Derek placed his E card in Mrs Devin's hand. Immediately, Mrs Devin was on the verge of tears. ‘Just five million dollars!' An E cardholder can indeed choose to withdraw any amount at any branch, is this the flimsy reason why this manager had withheld him for so long instead of attending to him?''Now, I've got to
After the man's disappearance, Brenda turned towards her husband.Derek knew what the next question would cover. 'She definitely would ask where I got the money from.' he said to himself while he sought for extra excuse."Babe, please can we leave, you should be hungry by now." without waiting for her response, he turned to leave."Derek! Get back here!" she yelled after him to till they both settled in the vehicle."Where did you get the money from? We both know it's quite impossible to get such an amount, not to talk of in a jiffy."Derek was speechless. "I got the money from our gift." Derek finally responded softly."Gift! G…ift!" she stressed the word in distrust.He held on to her shoulders and said. "Babe, we've paid the bully off, and that's what matters most. I can't stand anyone insult you.""You pleaded with him, yet he wasn't bulging…whatelse could you have done to appease him?" His words were touching to make her calm down.However, she doubts the fact that her husband
With a firm expression, Derek looked at the pie on his plate. He obviously knew exactly what Autumn was driving at.It was simple, she needed him to join her in going against the Reids, then she could split some fortune for him and Brenda.However, Derek merely sneered. Deep down, he obviously knew that the wealth and fortune of Autumn combined with the Reids was definitely not up to half of his.'Then why should I succumb to her bidding?' he thought to himself.His only reason to have remained in such a family was obviously for no one other than his wife Brenda. Right from the start, he never was interested in a family like the Reids. Their gullibility was obvious, nothing at all as concealed. The only people who were quite good were Brenda and Mr Reids, even the extended family were shit.As such even before he discovered his identity, he despised them with the whole of him.Now that he discovered what they did to him, and who he really is, why would he need anyone to give him a
At first Brenda wondered why Derek was so much interested in Autumn's secrets. However she couldn't help but laugh extensively at the seriousness emanating from his expression."Babe, please just tell me. I promise to get you more chicken if you do. Or ask me to get you anything you would want then I'd get it.""Hmm, like getting Mount Everest!" Brenda couldn't help but tease him further."Emm, be rest assured I'll get it for you if I can." he replied playfully.He had thought she would ask for material things but she seemed to be less interested in any of those. Derek turned towards her. "Babe, I'm serious. Just say anything you want, I'll surely get it for you." Derek sounded very much serious this time around.However, Brenda was yet to take him seriously. "What about getting the heavens?" she couldn't help but chuckle.Derek was getting much frustrated inwardly, and at the same time, he couldn't show his desperation to learn about Autumn. With a mild change in stance, and a half
"What’s wrong? You don’t seem to like me very much. Why do you fret? I heard you've become the director of the Reids group now, with that I don't think you should in any way be scared of me."Autumn said further to fuel the fire, after which a wide mocking laughter escaped from her lips.“You…” Morphie nearly leaped up to punch her, but she dogged and he sat back."You know it would be unruly for a news to go around expressing our dearest director as a woman beater." Autumn said that in a sneer, Morphie clenched his fist tight together in anger.“Alright, stop it. Let’s talk about the company. I see that you got accepted by the Emerald group as collaborators for a new investment right?!"Morphie was however speechless, Autumn found herself a seat without being offered one."Let me open your eyes to something Morphie. You are still quite a young lad, and your eyes are not yet open to much in the business world.""Go straight to the point Autumn!" Morphie ordered with a hit against the
Derek reached Trastar before the others. Angrily he paced forth and back at the front of his vehicle.The moment he noticed Gage's vehicle driving in, he stood with his arms by his side, his eyeballs deepened like that of a hawk.As Gage arrived with the boys, none of them dared to make a sound. They stood silently by the side, waiting for the young master's order.They could all feel the strange atmosphere in the room. They had no idea what had happened, but the murderous intent that Derek exuded made it obvious just how serious this matter was.The two boys had sweat dripping from their back, not as a result of the scorching sun, but as a result of the fear deep within their souls.This was the second time they were meeting with Derek. Their first encounter was when he knew nothing about himself.But now that he held more than power that could haul down the whole of Dominican, they fidgeted reasoning that he might take revenge.Along the way, Gage had several thoughts revolving aro
“Young Master, we’ve caught them.” Even though the boys already had the culprits, they couldn’t help but feel anxious.Each of the boys waited to study Derek's expression. To their utmost surprise, his anger had really calmed, he faced the culprits."Who is your master? Who had hired you five? And who instructed you to beat Brenda’s up?”At first, Derek flushed his gaze across the five if them, he tried to remember if he had seen any if them before but he was sure that he had never seen these five tyrant looking boys before. This meant that they bore no grudges against him.In conclusion, there was only one possibility at such audacity. It means simply meant they had been hired by someone.His question provoked harsh words from them. "You have no right to question us. Who are you? You’re just a useless good for nothing son-in-law. How dare you question us? You've got no right to.” The eldest among them was quite outspoken and stubborn.Instantly, Derek threw into his stomach a h
The day Derek got to know of Autumn's shocking secret through his wife, he had thought it as the best way to get to her.Immediately he left for the gas station and he got to call Gage, who had told him to find out about Autumn's son.While he turned away from Gage and the others, he had opened the message only to find complete information as regards where he visited at night, things he loved to do. It even covered the fact that he was a regular visitor at Sultry night.The information contained virtually every single thing about him, including his picture.Hence when Derek walked into the room, it was quite easier for him to sight Brandon.He had a special room which he always logged in when he came around, and it was that exact room that Derek found him.The moment Brandon caught sight of Derek, he yelled irritatedly at the sudden intrusion."Get out of here! Who the hell let you in?! I need to call security."Brandon felt so disturbed and utterly humiliated.Yet, Derek acted as tho
