Chapter 86Mr. Reynold couldn’t hold in his eagerness as he walked briskly out of the company and went inside his car, his chauffeur sat down too, and ignited the car engine quickly. “Where are we going to Sir?” the chauffeur asked “Take me to the mansion, Owen’s home” he replied, and the chauffeur nodded, igniting the car engine as he drove them out of the company. He was busy tapping his feet on the car impatiently. He couldn’t believe everything he had worked so hard for, for the past year was finally coming into play, and he was finally getting what he deserved. He felt like the car was too slow and couldn’t ask the driver to drive faster because they would exceed the speeding limit, he cursed when they had to stop because of traffic, and finally, he made it to the mansion. He came down from the car quickly and made his way inside, ignoring the greetings of the workers, at the same time he came down from the car, Owen had stepped out of the car too, and he was walking gently
Chapter 87Maya’s lips hung open after listening to everything Owen said, she was shocked and at the same time, felt so bad for him, she didn’t understand why he had to go through all that, he deserved more than what was happening to him. “I still can’t believe it” she muttered and Owen chuckled sipping the juice he was taking, he wasn’t as emotional as he was before, and now he felt better after speaking to Maya, he couldn’t help but watch how worried she looks, and he felt she was cute.“Are you going to tell Hayden all this, or you have already told him about it?” she suddenly asked, which caused Owen to drop the drink in his hand and let out a sigh. “I am not sure if I should tell him or not, I am scared of getting betrayed by another person again” Owen replied and Maya scorned a bit.“I don’t think Hayden is going to betray you, I am not the best at judging characters, but I can see how transparent Hayden is; he had all reasons to hate you but had always supported you, I know t
Chapter 88“I want to hear everything uncle, don’t leave any stone unturned” Owen stated and Mr. Reynold smirked, he has to be certain Owen is not in possession of what he needs, and he can only know through the way he reacts to whatever he wants to tell him.“Your father was never the listening type, he never listens, and he was reckless that was how he ended up with your mom, I never wanted to tell you all these stories, but I had no choice, I have to tell you everything now. I shouldn’t shield you from the truth. You are an adult, Father let him be because he was their true biological son…” He paused when he noticed the wide expression on Hayden’s face.“I don’t understand something uncle, what are you?” he asked and Mr. Reynold laughed “I am not my father’s biological son, I was adopted. Mother spent years, and she couldn’t conceive on her own, and it pushed her to opt for adoption, less than two years later after adopting me, she got pregnant and that’s how Owen’s father came to
Chapter 89The ride back to Owen’s home was filled with silence, they finally made it back to the mansion and came down from their cars, they walked back to the house and Maya quickly opened the door, she was shocked to see Owen and Hayden together. As soon as her gaze fell on them, she opened the door wider and they both stepped inside. “Maya is here?” Hayden asked, shocked to see Maya. “Yes she is here, she came yesterday” Owen replied “How are you doing Hayden, it’s been a while” Maya greeted with a wide smile on her face. “It’s been a while, I trust you are good” Hayden replied with an equal smile, Maya nodded and they exchanged handshakes.“So what is going on? What happened at the dinner?” she inquired. “Let’s sit and talk” Owen replied, and they all sat down, he ran his hand over his hair. “Uncle Reynold has been disturbing me about the vault chamber, and he wanted me to open it and not go through it, I promised him not to, and he said I was the only one who had access to i
Chapter 90“What did you see?” Owen asked through the phone. “This is not something we can discuss over the phone Owen, I need to see you” Maya replied “Then let’s meet at home, I will come over now” Owen stated Maya ended the phone call and looked around hoping that no one had seen her, her hands were shaking. She placed her phone back in her bag. Instead of going back to the hospital, she took a cab that took her back to the mansion, she arrived at the mansion before Owen and was busy pacing about when the door suddenly opened, Owen stepped inside and Maya quickly rushed over to meet him. “Calm down and tell me everything, okay?” Owen asked, and Maya held Owen’s hand immediately. “You won’t believe who I saw, Owen! I saw Megan with Martin but with the look of things it seemed Martin was threatening Maya, I couldn’t believe Martin could step out in the broad daylight when everyone was searching for him; he was wanted” Maya said and Owen ran his hand in his head remembering that K
Chapter 91“This is dangerous Owen, how can you think of raiding Uncle Reynold’s house, you should know he will definitely protect everywhere, and you can’t just step into his house that easily” Hayden stated and Owen smiled. “Trust me, you don’t have to come with me, but I am not going to act foolishly, I have someone I can talk to first, he is a tech guy and very good with computers, I have known him since my college days” Owen replied and Hayden furrowed his brows.“A tech guy? Are you sure about this?” Hayden asked and Owen chuckled. “You get scared too much Hayden, I am not stupid, and I know what I am doing, I am going to call him, and we can all meet him” Owen replied and Hayden gulped down.He couldn’t deny the fact that he was scared, knowing what Mr. Reynold was capable of, if he could have killed his brother and reigned over the family for years, he could have done something worse to them. Hayden only nodded.“Let’s go,” Owen said, and they got back inside the car, they d
Chapter 92“Please let me go, Martin! My grandma needs me, there is no one to take care of her, and you have been holding me captive in this place for long now” Katrina begged and Martin smirked. “You should have thought about that before going through my back and doing something that was going to put me in trouble, you don’t expect me to let you go so easily, right? You ruined my life!” he screamed at her, and tears fell rapidly from Katrina’s eyes. “What do you expect me to do? I tried to be on my own, but you messed up with me, you were the one who ruined my life! You raped me and then still dragged me into your shit while all I did was try to live my life!” Katrina screamed at him, she was already tired from the way he was treating her, she had tried so hard to endure, but it seemed she couldn’t endure his abuse anymore, she just wanted to be on her own with no one to disturb her. Martin was shocked at her sudden outburst, but he tried to hide it, he moved closer to her and hel
Chapter 93"Simon, it's done," Owen said as soon as his friend answered. "I managed to plant the bug in my uncle's mansion and his car. We should be able to listen in on his conversations now."Simon's voice crackled with excitement. "That's incredible, Owen! We might finally get to the bottom of this."Owen nodded, his mind racing with possibilities. "I'm counting on it. Let's just hope we find something worthwhile.""Don’t worry, you can fully trust in me and now I can clearly listen to everything, I will let you know if I find anything, trust me and be rest assured. We will talk another time” Simon replied “Of course” Owen replied and the call came to an end. *Simon monitored the bug's feed with bated breath, waiting for any sign of Mr Reynold having an important discussion. Then, finally, it happened.Mr. Reynold and Martin engaged in a clandestine conversation, unaware of the eavesdropping presence of Simon, hidden away, listening intently through the bug."So, Martin, how's e
