Rising Towards Supremacy

Before Rex's eyes is Pearl, his beloved girlfriend of three years. He loves her. He did everything for her. She is the first lady he would ever lay with and Rex has been her first lover as well. The bond between them is unique and precious but weeks ago Rex has noticed her aloof mood. He had never been suspicious of her but witnessing her in the arms of Khalil his heart dropped to his stomach. With two shivering legs, Rex made his way to Pearl who was stunned as well. By the expression on her face, it is obvious she never expected to see him in Khalil's residence. " What ...are you doing here Pearl? " The astonished Rex managed to ask. " You shouldn't be here " Pearl couldn't speak. The reality of being caught red-handed in the act kept her tongue unmoving. " What ... Are you doing here Rex? You are supposed to be at the hospital with your dad " " What? " Rex asked in awe. " You haven't answered my damn question, Pearl. Why are you in this ..." " Hello, errand boy " Khalil qu

" Rex? Where did you get the money from? Did you acquire some inheritance after old Louie died? " Gael has already spoken out the words before he could stop himself. The air suddenly becomes tense and Emilio looks away to breathe out shakily. " I'm... sorry man " He mutters. " I never acquires anything from my father's death except heartbreak " Rex replied smoothly. He gave his roommate their coffee and he set out. The two friends quickly followed him. " It's a miracle you are walking Rex. I think your ribs are broken man " " I can't just sit on the bed, Emilio. I have a competition to attend " Rex replied. He was expecting an answer but he received none. This compelled him to stop when he realized his friends weren't following him anymore. He turns around to see them staring at him in pity. " What is wrong? " He asked confusedly. " The girl's competition feature only Pearl versus Sheila while the guys feature only Khalil in the chart board. You are not elected anymore " Emil

The soft music was put to a stop all of a sudden and the patio become silent immediately after Louie's claim. He get up from the floor crazily and clutched at Rex's wrist. His bloodshot eyes are wide open in astonishment. " Rex! Rex! You are back ... my son is back. I thought I lost you Rex. This watch you have on belongs to... " The words of Louie were interrupted by Karson who gripped his brother's arms disdainfully.Rex was stunned by this occurrence. When Karson began to drag Louie away, he never takes his eyes off him. Instead, he felt a pang of pity and guilt deep in his heart. Rex failed to understand what has happened. Instead he felt the urge to save Louie from his brother." So you are the young man who has pulled off the odds and appears in my hall tonight? " The voice of Riley said behind Rex and he stiffened abruptly. Slowly he turns around and graces the old man his attention. The smile on his face was sincere but also challenging. Old Riley is a man with silver ha

" Will you be fast you morons " Khalil cried out between clenched teeth. " Okay, that's enough. Shit! He is coming " He was before the male's residence hall and his two stooges were busy tampering with Rex's car. Minutes later Sheila and the three boys walk out but Khalil and his stooges had retired to a corner and they watch as Rex lowered himself unto the driver's seat and drives off. " Great! If Sheila died with him then good. She is adopted anyway and no one loves her " That was Khalil's speech when he watch the Bugatti Centodieci zoom out from his sight. He turn to one of his friends and asked. " Do you get the job done? " " I think so. We managed to tamper with the brake " " Great. That will do. Even if he survived, he won't be healthy enough to walk or compete in the race. We should get his boots away from his locker as well " Khalil left with his friends while Rex drove off to a shopping mall. The voice in his head told him to complete the daily task. After a long dri

Under Rex's watchful gaze, Louie walks to a drawer beside the bed and pulled out a pillbox. He held it out for Rex to see and he tosses it away. The pillbox opens and thousands of pills are scattered unto the floor. " For twenty-one years I have lived like a madman just to stay alive and to keep my son safe. " My brother had served me a kill pill all days just for me to stay insane forever. " After your mother died from the accident, I have been emotionally helpless and the thought of you still alive tied my hands." You have to be kept alive. Your existence kept me unmoving " Rex swallows hard. Here is the first son of Riley, the renowned Quadrillionaire. He is claiming him as his son and nothing has ever been more confusing." How can you tell that I am your son? Because my name is Rex? " " No " Louie replied. " I have always known you are my son. I took you up to the cobbler's home myself " " Cobbler's home? " Rex repeated in confusion. " My father, Louie isn't a cobbler. He
