As they left the mansion and were already leaving the premises, Dylan took it upon himself to brief Leo about everything he needed to know concerning his new life and future."Are you feeling alright? Hopefully you're not startled at all. We'll just need you to calm down and take everything in""I'm okay Dylan, I'm perfectly chill""Good, now let's talk""Okay ""So we're going to have to cut of all communications from you immediately after this ride""Why is that?""It's a risk, it's really dangerous""What's dangerous?""There's eyes everywhere, people are watching your every move. Being here in this car is already a risk"Leobegan to look around, quite agitated."Calm down,no harm will come to you. Don't worry about it""Okay""So you're saying that I've got enemies everywhere then, and people looking out to have me killed if they find out I'm still alive?""Yes that's exactly what I'm saying, that's why I'm going to need you to be alive and to also stay alive for the rest of us. S
While he was on his way there, he got another call from the same number."Mr Louis, hopefully you're on your way already""Yes Dylan, I'm coming ""Okay I'll be waiting. It's the headquarters of the company your grandfather kept for you all this while. Please do well to arrive on time""Okay, I'm coming now!"The line got disconnected after.The journey to the venue was approximately a twenty-seven minute difference from where he was originally.The view from inside of the Uber was really insane, he surely missed stuff like this. He was always busy with other things that he forgot all about the wonders of the world. That's when his silly brain remembered he actually has a motorcycle."Oh shoot, where did he Lose it?"He then remembered the lounge he went to, he also remembered parking the motorcycle. Then he remembered everything that happened right after and they certainly weren't nice things.He saw another ice cream store on the way there but he couldn't stop or tell the Uber drive
Dylan couldn't believe the sight in front of him.Just what exactly were his crazy security guards doing to Leo?He came down from the car immediately, just about when they were about to push Leoonto the road."What are you doing?! What's happening here! Drop him right this instant!"He saw Leo's face, filled with bruises all over again. He couldn't help but feel pity for Leo, he's been through the most. And now he's still getting harassed in front of his own company.As soon as the security guards saw him approaching, they stopped what they were doing and picked Leo up. "Good day Sir, he, well he, he was...""Oh shut up, you can't even defend yourself properly. You're busy hitting someone I sent to come here, are you all alright?"It was the first time that Leosaw Dylan that upset, it was also pretty obvious that he was tired of his guards."I can see that y'all are begging to be sacked! Do you even have an idea on who you've been messing with?"The look of fear was evident in their
As soon as he got to the elevator, that's when Leo realized that this wasn't any regular type of building. The paintings on the wall spoke volumes, they were the kinds he heard about but never really got the chance to see. But now they were right in front of him.He fought himself countless times while he followed Dylan against deviating from his duty and going to look at paintings and the decors on the wall. He knew why he was there, and he proceeded to act accordingly. He believed that everything else would come after.As they walked towards the elevator, Dylan turned and entered an adjacent hallway from where they were. This left Leoperplexed and he had to ask."Aren't we using an elevator?"This question made Dylan laugh hard."Those sad elevators?"His replies got Leo even more confused."Please what do you mean by sad?""Well, those elevators are meant for the staff. We don't use it""Oh, so which one are we supposed to use then?"Just right in front of him, Dylan typed in a num
It was a gloomy afternoon, Leo sat in his room thinking about his lost wife, he loved Clara so much, even up till now. Melissa only came up along the line, as of recent, she was getting proud. Coupled with the fact he didn't get a job, he was feeling bad. He sighed and stood up from the seat to go lie on the bed, facing the ceiling with thoughts about his life which was still bothering him, when suddenly his cell phone rang. He picked it up. It was a strange number. "Hmm, who's this again?" "Maybe it's an emergency."His mind was taken back to how he first met the princess, a strange number had called him like this and when he picked, it was her calling on him to come and treat the king. So he picked it. "Hello," a thick, masculine voice sounded from the other end of the line. The voice sounded unfamiliar to him. "Who's this?" He tried to maintain a polite voice, even when the person calling him sounded kind of rude and arrogant. "It's the King's special assistant," the man a
Turning over, he let out a gasp. Melissa and Clara! Both seeing him turn up, stood up in surprise, their eyes glaring wide. "What are you doing here, Leo?" Melissa didn't sound welcoming at all. Leo stared at them for a long time before saying a word, he was as well shocked seeing both of them, rivals sitting down to a talk in Melissa's office. "I guess this talk must be about me!" "Why make an assumption which you aren't sure of?" Melissa cautioned him. Clara got a project to sign at the princess' office, at first she thought she wouldn't even accept her since they were rivals. Appearing at her door, she saw how the green light popped up on the button of the door. She was accepted, her very first surprise was when her appointment with her was approved and she got an email. Now Clara was wondering if this was a plan, she suspected the princess to invite him as at the time she was here meanwhile he came for another purpose. "Why are you here?" The princess who was getting furio
"Why this?" Leo was annoyed. He couldn't watch someone else humiliate the woman who was once his wife. "I love to be the only one." His reason was that Clara did nothing wrong to Melissa, so why the great hatred. Clara could wish to return to him, it was just a wish, why the hatred. "Let her be, she's not worth it!" Leo said, bending over to pick the files. It was a set of land documents, from the architectural drawings, a structure was going to be assigned and perhaps this was what she brought to Melissa to sign. He finished picking them and Clara was expecting him to hand it over to her, she stretched her hand, but rather he turned around after glaring at her hand to show her he's seen it, he dropped it on the table and returned back with his serious face. “Whatever, it doesn't matter so far as you bent down to pick it, you're still low." She murmured. "You're daring me?" Leo responded. "Of course, I am and there's nothing you can do. You're such a low servant and that you shall
"Remember I'm the poor fellow you all know," he whispered into the ears of the officer that slapped him. He heard it all but he couldn't do anything. He was too weak to even raise his head. Leo climbed down the stairs, walking triumphantly. The news of what he did had spread quickly by the running officers, the rest who were stationed downstairs shifted paving way for him to pass, they didn't want his trouble. Now that he was sure the king wasn't planning to send him away from the palace, he was bold enough. It would be some other thing although he didn't know what it was going to be. He returned back to his apartment to change up. During the fight, his shirt had stuck on a small nail on the wall and tore, he didn't want to look like a gangster before the king even when he took him as a son. Clara, although harassed by Melissa and laughed at by Leo arrived at home smiling, she pretended as if everything was alright when in fact she was thinking of what had happened to her. Henry w
