THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 26
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

Liam’s eyes darted around the room, searching for support, but found none. The crowd, sensing his fear, began to murmur again, their anger now mixed with suspicion."Let's see what the backup footage shows," Nathan said, plugging the USB into the nearest system. The room fell into a tense silence as the footage loaded.The screen flickered to life, displaying the missing segment: Liam entering Claire's room before Andrew, the timestamp confirming the sequence of events.Gasps and murmurs erupted from the crowd, shock and disbelief spreading among them.Nathan pointed at the screen. "This footage clearly shows that Liam entered the room first. He manipulated the original footage to frame Andrew."Liam’s face contorted with rage and fear. "This is a setup! I didn't do anything wrong!"Claire stood there motionless, as she could not believe her eyes. Could Liam really have done this to her?Nathan scoffed at Liam. "It is a setup, right?" Nathan then began to play the footage from in

The security men, fueled by Nathan's unwavering authority, moved swiftly. They seized Liam and Claire, each of them struggling against the iron grip of the guards.Claire's eyes, which were once filled with shock and disbelief, now brimmed with desperation as she turned to Nathan."Nathan, please," Claire pleaded, her voice breaking. "You know me. I made a mistake, but I don’t deserve this. Please, don’t do this."Liam, still clutching his cheek from Claire's slap, added his own desperate plea."Nathan, I'm sorry! I lost control, but please, don’t throw us out into the storm.""We could die out there!"Nathan’s expression remained cold and unyielding.He stepped closer to the pair, his eyes piercing through them. "You both brought this upon yourselves. Claire, you chose to trust a snake despite the fact I begged you to listen.""And you, Liam," he spat his name, "you’re nothing but a manipulative liar. You deserve each other."The crowd watched in stunned silence as the reality of

Claire lay in the hospital bed, her mind struggling to grasp the fragments of the horrific nightmares from the previous night.She remembered the freezing cold, the horrible wind, and the overwhelming sense of betrayal and fear.Nathan's face flashed in her mind, his eyes cold and unforgiving.She would not forget so easily how someone who used to love and cherish her and would do anything for her threw her out mercilessly like a dog and left her to die without a second thought.The memory of being cast out into the raging storm, left to face the elements alone, made Claire's body tremble. The utter hopelessness she had felt as the icy wind brought her to her knees, stealing the breath from her lungs, was almost too much to bear.In that moment, Claire was certain she was going to die, her life flashing before her eyes as the darkness threatened to consume her. Yet, somehow, she had found her way here, confined to the hospital bed.How she had managed to survive the horrific storm l

Vanessa reached out again, her hand brushing against his. “Please, Nathan. Just talk to him. Try and reason with him, he might listen to you.” “Vanessa, the man is sitting on a mountain of wealth that he’s stolen from innocent people. He will have to pay for what he had done.” “I understand that,” Vanessa said softly. “But Vorthax armies are known to be ruthless, maybe more ruthless than your men; you have to try to at least speak with him.” Nathan exhaled sharply, running a hand through his hair. “Do you believe that talking will solve things, Vanessa?"Vanessa held his gaze, her eyes unwavering. “I believe it’s worth trying. For the sake of our child, Nathan. For the sake of the future. Please.” The fire in Nathan's eyes died down as her words pierced him. He looked away, his hands gripping the edge of the table. He tried to dismiss her thoughts, but he couldn't. Vanessa was right, he was going to become a father, and he had to provide a safer environment for his son to g

CHAPTER 277
Nathan and Vanessa arrived at the Presidential Villa and it was already starting to get dark. Nathan stepped out of the car and he gently helped Vanessa to come down. Ever since Nathan found out that his wife was pregnant, he has been treating her like an egg.He would not even let her pick up a glass cup by her self. The guards at the entrance saluted the President, but Nathan really didn't notice as all his attention was on his wife. Once they were inside, they claimed the grand staircase to their room.Nathan helped Vanessa remove her coat, and they both moved to the bathroom to shower. They showered together and Vanessa sighed softly as she leaned against Nathan.Her back pressed to his chest and his hands were protectively over her belly. After their shower, they changed into comfortable clothes. Nathan wore a simple white shirt and black pants, and Vanessa wore a flowing lavender dress.They made their way to the dining room, where the staff had prepared dinner. They

He stood over the table, the ministers were terrified of him at this point. “Do you have any idea what this means? Prescott has been bled dry for years to feed the greed of a tyrant!” He slammed his fist on the table again. The loud bang shook some of them as the documents fluttered. “How many lives could we have changed with that money? How many opportunities have been stolen from our people because of your cowardice?” One of the younger ministers, clearly terrified, finally spoke up. “Mr. President, the former administration thought it was the only way. Vorthax is... dangerous. They threatened to destroy us if we didn’t comply.” Nathan’s gaze snapped to him. “And instead of standing up to them, you chose to submit? To sell out our country?” His voice was a deadly whisper now. “Do you think appeasement is leadership? Do you think I will tolerate this?” Another minister, one of the more senior ones, hesitated before speaking. “Sir, they made it clear. Any day we stop the paymen

CHAPTER 275
Nathan sat in his office one late afternoon; his desk was covered with neatly arranged stacks of documents. He leaned back in his chair and was through a report on the nation’s finances. His sharp eyes were scanning all the pages, and everything was going fine until something caught his attention. A large transfer of funds, which was a high percentage of Prescott’s revenue was sent to an account he did not recognize.His brow furrowed as he flipped to another document. The same account. Nathan's heart rate quickened. He pulled another report, then another, each confirming his suspicion. Over the past six years, billions of Prescott’s revenue had been funneled into this mysterious account. His jaw tightened as he leaned forward. This should be another form of corruption in the system, and he was ready to do whatever it took to root it out. Nathan pressed the intercom on his desk. His voice was steady, but it was filled with urgency. “Angela, call an emergency cabinet meeting

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

CHAPTER 272
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

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 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. Nathan’s car came to a stop in front of the villa’s main entrance.The sight that greeted them was noth
