THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 23
However, as Liam's fingers caressed Claire's hand, Claire slowly retracted it, her expression guarded. Claire was not that naïve; she recognized that Liam's desire to take their relationship to a more personal level, one that she was not yet ready for. She had just gotten out of a divorce, so she would have to think things through before she considered getting married again or being in a relationship again. Liam felt the sting of rejection, which was obvious on his face, but he quickly composed himself, his broad smile not wavering. Victoria, who had always wanted her daughter to marry a successful young man like Liam, immediately stepped in as she saw the growing tension between Liam and Claire. "You and Liam would look so good together," she said, her eyes shining with a mixture of hope and determination. "Unlike that useless and miserable loser of an ex-husband, Liam is a man worthy of your affection." Claire felt the weight of her mother's words, the unspoken pressu

Nathan looked out the helicopter's windows, his brows furrowed as he observed the dark clouds gathering. They would definitely be in danger if they were hit by a storm while in the air."This doesn't look good," Nathan murmured with a grave expression. "We need to find a safe place to land immediately."The pilot's voice remained calm as he replied, "I'm already scanning the area for the nearest suitable landing site. "There's a hotel complex about ten miles northeast that should be able to accommodate us."Nathan nodded decisively. "Make the emergency landing there. We'll have to wait out the storm and continue our journey tomorrow."The pilot acknowledged Nathan's command and adjusted the helicopter's direction, accelerating toward the hotel's location. As they approached, it became increasingly obvious that a storm was imminent, with bolts of lightning cracking through the darkened sky and the distant rumble of thunder echoing around them.Carefully, the pilot navigated the air

Nathan shook Alistair's hand, feeling a glimmer of hope. "Thank you for taking the time to see me, Mr. Carlton. "As you know, the weather conditions are severe, and moving the helicopter right now would be extremely dangerous. I'm hoping we can find a temporary solution until the storm passes."Alistair maintained a warm smile, but he was determined to get the helicopter off the helipad on the roof. The VIP guests he was expecting were major shareholders in his hotel, and he needed to treat them with the best service. "I completely understand, Mr. Nathan. The safety of our guests is very important to us. However, I'm expecting some very important guests, and the use of our helipad is essential for their arrival. "I'm afraid I must insist that your pilot relocate the helicopter to a nearby facility before the storm gets even worse."Nathan's heart sank, but he maintained his composure. "Mr. Carlton, I appreciate your position, but the storm is already getting worse. Relocating the

Liam's surprise expression was replaced by a huge frown as he glared at Nathan. "What the hell do you think you are doing here? Did anybody ask you to come in?" Liam asked angrily as he managed to compose himself.But he was visibly shaking like a thief who was caught red-handed.Nathan looked at him with furrowed eyebrows. What was he doing here? He should be the one asking him what he was doing in his hotel.“What’s going on here, Liam?” Nathan demanded, his voice firm as his eyes darted between Liam and his employee. “Why is Claire unconscious, and what has happened in this room?”Before his employee could speak, Liam immediately interrupted him. "Leave here, you fool! She is no longer your wife, and it is not your business," Liam said, pointing his finger furiously at the door, asking Nathan to leave.Liam was right; Claire was no longer his wife, so he had no responsibility whatsoever towards her. But he could not just ignore a woman lying helplessly on the bed, especially w

Andrew took another deep breath, his eyes flicking nervously between Nathan and Liam. "As I was saying, sir, I heard strange noises and came to check." When I entered the room, I saw Liam here... he was hovering over Claire, and she was unconscious on the bed. It looked like he was..." He pauded as his gaze fell on Liam who was glaring at him, bur he continued anyway."Trying to take advantage of her, he was about to pour a red wine on her body. "I pushed him away from Claire, causing him to tumble and break the vase, the red wine also ended up spilling on me"Nathan's eyes glanced briefly at his ex-wife who was lying peacefully on the bed. He also noticed the petals of flowers around the bed. Claire lay there like a gentle lamb to be slaughtered by Liam.Nathan's rage and disgust increased as he turned his gaze to Liam, his eyes shooting daggers at him. He took a deliberate step forward, closing the distance between them.With a sudden movement, Nathan landed a very big slap acr

Claire’s eyes widened in shock, shifting between Liam, Andrew, and Nathan. "Is this true?" she asked, her voice trembling as the effect of the drug slowly wore off.Nathan stepped forward, his expression a mix of anger and determination. "No, Claire. It's not true. This man found you unconscious and was trying to help. Liam is lying to cover up what he was about to do to you."Liam’s face contorted with anger. "He's lying! I saved you from this man," he insisted, pointing an accusatory finger at Andrew.Andrew, visibly shaken but determined, spoke up. "Ms. Claire, I promise you, Mr. Nathan is telling the truth." I found you unconscious, and this man here was about to..." Andrew said, pointing his finger at Liam, but Liam immediately cut him short."Claire, you know me better than that. I would never do anything to harm you," Liam said, faking innocence as he continued."I caught him in the act. Can't you see the red stain on his shirt?"Claire's gaze followed his gesture, landing

Liam, seizing the opportunity to kill two birds with one stone, turned to Claire. "You see, Claire? Nathan is trying to manipulate you.""He must have been so angry about the divorce that he wanted to get back at you by sending this man to take advantage of you.""Even after his cheating scandal, he still has the guts to walk around with his head held high."Confusion etched Nathan's face. "What are you talking about?"Claire’s eyes widened further in anger as Liam’s words sank in. "Nathan, we know all about your cheating scandal. "How could you do such a thing?"" Humiliating me and my family is not enough?"Nathan's heart sank, but he remained calm. "Claire, we were married for three good years. Is this how low you think of me?"Nathan could hear some comments coming from the crowd."What a shameless man.""Is this the best way he could think of to get revenge?""How could he stoop so low? "Their family was right for chasing him out of their house."Nathan ignored their comments

As soon as Liam spoke, a loud thunderclap echoed through the room, signaling that the storm outside had intensified. Nathan's gaze intensified as the room fell silent, except for the roaring storm outside. Security officers exchanged uneasy glances.Claire, shaking with rage, moved towards Nathan. "Get out, now!"Before Nathan could respond, Mr. Clinton entered the room, having been summoned by the escalating commotion. "What’s going on here?" he asked as his eyes darted aroundA lady from the crowd spoke immediately. "Mr. Clinton, this man here was accused of trying to sexually assault this lady here, and this man..." She pointed to Nathan. "Paid him to do so. We were just about to throw both of them out of the hotel.""This man here?" Mr. Clinton said, gesturing to Liam, and they all nodded. "Do you have any idea who he is?" he asked and they all looked at each other, puzzled.Who could he be? "This man here is the owner of this very hotel you are all standing in."He bought i

The news of the baby broke in the early hours of the morning. There were already gossips flying everywhere and Nathan knew that he had had to send his secretary to make the official announcement. She stood in front of the press in the conference room in the Presidential conference room as she announced. “It is with immense joy that I confirm the news that President Nathan and the First Lady are expecting their first child,” he declared. “Both mother and child are healthy, and the President is deeply grateful for your support during this time.” The room erupted with numerous questions and cameras flashed furiously at the secretary's face. The press secretary raised his hand, calming the crowd. “We ask for understanding and privacy during this special time. Thank you for your cooperation.” Within hours, the news spread like wildfire. Every major news outlet in Prescott carried the story. Hashtags like #PresidentialBaby and #BabyCloud were trending online. In the streets of P

Nathan sat by Vanessa’s side as he watched her breathe peacefully Her faint smile earlier had reassured him, but he couldn’t shake the tension gripping his chest. He was going to be a dad!He was excited, and at the same time, he was emotional. The door creaked softly, and the doctor stepped into the room. He smiled gently at Nathan before glancing at Vanessa, who had fallen back asleep. “Mr. President,” the doctor began in a hushed tone, “she’s stable, but she needs to rest. I recommend you let her sleep while we monitor her vitals. You can return in the evening when she’s stronger.” Nathan frowned, his reluctance evident. “I can’t leave her alone,” he said firmly. “What if she needs me?” The doctor’s gaze softened. “We’ll take good care of her, sir. Right now, the best thing you can do is give her space. It’s what’s best for her and the baby.” Nathan’s jaw tightened as his eyes darted back to Vanessa. After a long moment of silence, he nodded. “Alright,” he said quie

The hospital lobby burst into action the moment Nathan stepped through the glass doors holding Vanessa in his arms. Her pale face and limp form drew the attention of every staff member present. The medical team, already alerted to the urgency of the situation, rushed to meet him. “Mr. President, this way!” one of the senior doctors called, gesturing toward the emergency ward. Nathan reluctantly laid Vanessa on the waiting stretcher. He hovered beside her and gripped her hand tightly as the nurses worked to move her to the emergency ward. “She fainted suddenly,” Nathan said still breathing rapidly. “She’s been dizzy and nauseous all morning. Do whatever you need to, just save her.” The team nodded furiously as they wheeled Vanessa through the swinging double doors of the emergency ward. Nathan didn’t hesitate to follow as he ran alongside the stretcher.“Mr. President,” the nurse said, her voice firm but kind, “You’ll need to wait outside for now. We’ll take care of her.” N

A few weeks later, Nathan and Vanessa were already getting used to their new lives as the first citizens of the country. Within weeks, Nathan had made a lot of impact in Prescotr as president; he had also turned around the east district into a tourist center, and no one believed that would ever come to pass. He built a very mighty amusement park that attracted even foreign visitors; although the park was Darius' idea, he was not doing it out of the goodness of his heart, but Lord Cloud was doing what was good for the people of Prescott. A place that was known as a place of sorrow was completely turned around into a place of joy and laughter. And that was just a few weeks after he was sworn in. What would happen when he spends one year in office?

The inauguration event finally drew to a close and dignitaries began to leave one by one. The gardens were still buzzing with soft conversations and the clinking of glasses as the evening wound down.Not long later, Nathan was escorted to the Presidential convoy. The convoy was heavily surrounded by security, and they were ready to transport him to the Presidential Villa, a place that would be their home for the next four years. Grace and Brian, standing nearby, watched as Nathan and Vanessa made their way to the lead car. Nathan turned and beckoned to them. “Come along,” he said, his voice warm, “You’re family.” Brian’s eyes lit up, and he grinned, holding tightly to his mother’s hand as they followed. The convoy rolled through the streets of the capital and citizens were cheering for their new President.Finally, they arrived at the grand gates of the Presidential Villa.

Weeks passed, and the air of Prescott buzzed with anticipation.

It was a very grand occasion, not just for Nathan but for the entire nation. Nathan's rise to the presidency marked a new beginning in Prescott. The event would be covered by both local and global news. Nathan stood in front of the grand mirror, adjusting the navy-blue suit he was going to wear that day. His reflection stared back at him. Nathan was no longer confined to the wheelchair; he was back on his two feet and ready to rule Prescott. He flexed his fingers against the edge of the table, feeling the strength in his legs once more. He was so happy to be back on his feet. Vanessa entered the room quietly. She was wearing a sleek, ivory gown—radiating elegance. She stopped for a moment, taking time to watch her husband, the new President of Presc

“It’s Grace and Brian!” Nathan called out, turning his wheelchair slightly. Vanessa’s footsteps were almost audible as she appeared on the screen, her eyes wide with joy. “Grace!” she exclaimed, dropping down beside Nathan and leaning into the camera. She could barely hide her excitement. “How are you? How’s Novida treating you? And Brian—look at you! How was your first day at your new school?” Brian was practically bouncing now. “I love it here! My school is amazing, Vanessa! We did science experiments, and I made new friends too!” “That’s incredible, Brian,” Vanessa said, her smile genuine and warm. “I knew you’d love it.” She then turned her attention to Grace. “And you? How are you adjusting to the new job?” Grace hesitated for a moment, as she thought of the new responsibility that were now resting on her shoulders. But then, she smiled. “It’s a lot,” she admitted, “but I’m handling it."" Nathan nodded approvingly. “I never doubted you for a second. You’re more than

She let out a small smile as she reflected on the journey that had brought her here. From being a nobody in Prescott to standing as a CEO in Novida. Her fingers traced the smooth edge of her grand executive desk.Her gaze lingered on the plate where her name was engraved. Clara cleared her throat to remind her that she was still standing. “Ms. Grace, I have to go now. I have other things to attend to.” Grace nodded, offering a rare, genuine smile. “Thank you, Clara. I appreciate all your help today. You can go.” Clara bowed her head respectfully and left, leaving Grace alone in the vast, elegant office. Determined to make the most of her first day, Grace settled into the plush executive chair behind her desk. She looked at her computer. She had countless project proposals, company reports, and business forecasts to go through.She got to work immediately. Hours passed, and before she knew it, the day had long faded into evening.

Grace chuckled as Brian rushed amd jumped into her arms. “Ready to go?” “YES!” he practically shouted, bouncing with excitement. As the CSR moved, Brian couldn’t sit still, his face was pressed against the window as he admired the futuristic parks, towering academic buildings, and artificial lakes passed by. As they neared Starview Academy, Grace breath hitched. The school was a nothing short of luxury with it's modern architecture.They could see the beautiful gardens, hand sports fields. The entrance gates opened automatically as they approached, and a pair of well-dressed administrators greeted them with warm smiles.

You must be Brian,” one of the administrators, Ms. Calder
