2024-10-29 19:42:56"Ma, are we still going to support Nathan now that the Vice President of the Cloud Corporation is here? We could get into trouble if he is caught impersonating him," Vanessa's personal assistant whispered into Vanessa's ear, fearing trouble with the Cloud Corporation.
But Vanessa stood her ground. "All that matters is we get him to join us." The Wilson family thought Bianca felt insulted when they sent the servant to welcome them. Immediately, they all rushed forward, bowing their heads apologetically with Grandfather Wilson taking the lead. "I'm very sorry, Miss Bianca. Welcome to the Wilson family. With you in our midst, our family will definitely succeed and prosper." "The Wilson family prosper?" Miss Bianca repeated. "Of course," Victoria answered. "It's all thanks to my daughter, Claire. She is a rising businesswoman in Prescott, and she will make the Wilson family good enough to partner with the Cloud Corporation." "Claire?" Miss Bianca asked. "Everything your family has achieved is because of someone else," Miss Bianca declared. "Yes, Liam," Ivan said, gesturing to Liam. "He is one of the top officials in the Cloud Corporation, personally appointed by Lord Nathan himself. This is the new contract of two billion dollars he helped us secure from Lord Cloud." Ivan picked up the contract documents and handed them over to Bianca, who observed them with a frown. Liam was visibly shaking as he was about to be exposed. "These contract documents are fake!!! And are not from the Cloud Corporation!" Bianca declared as she tore the documents into pieces. The room fell into a stunned silence as the pieces descended to the floor. "You fools! Liam has nothing to do with the Cloud Corporation." Liam's smirk faltered, replaced by a look of panic as all eyes turned to him. "Get out of the way!" One of the bodyguards shouted at the family, dismissing them like they were insignificant obstacles. The Wilson family recoiled in shock. The people from the Cloud Corporation then walked over to Nathan, and they all bowed before him and chorused, "All hail the Almighty Lord Cloud!" Nathan's eyes scanned the room, taking in the mix of shock, fear, and confusion on the faces of the Wilson family. The hall was filled with gasps as they could not believe it. Who is Nathan that the Vice President of the Cloud Corporation bows to him? It could only mean one thing... Nathan is really Lord Cloud! Victoria was visibly shaking with fear as she managed to mutter, "He... He is Lord Cloud." The entire family, especially Claire, immediately began to regret their actions. Grandfather Wilson stepped forward, his voice shaking. "Miss Bianca... Are you sure you are not mistaken? This is the son-in-law that we have just driven out." "Robert Wilson," Miss Bianca called Grandpa by his first name, "Are you tired of living? How dare you question the identity of Lord Cloud?" Grandfather Wilson's face turned pale at Miss Bianca's stern rebuke. He swallowed hard, eyes wide with terror, and his knees buckled slightly as he tried to steady himself . The rest of the Wilson family, now huddled together, mirrored his fear. "Miss Bianca, please," Grandfather Wilson stammered, "we... we had no idea. If we had known, we would never have—" "Silence!" Miss Bianca's voice cut through the air like a blade. "You and your family are ignorant! Do you think it was because of Claire your family was able to rise to the top? How arrogant! Claire does not have the resources or means to get the Wilson family to the top. And since you are all so sure you can do without Lord Cloud, from now on the Cloud Corporation will terminate all its relationship with the Wilson family. We will also take back all the gifts presented and reclaim all the benefits the Wilson family has received from the Cloud Corporation in the last three years!" The Wilson family's collective gasps filled the room as the gravity of Miss Bianca's words sank in. Victoria clutched her chest, her face turning pale, while Claire's confidence crumbled into despair. Ivan immediately rushed forward and dropped to his knees in front of Miss Bianca. "Please, you can't do this," he pleaded, tears streaming down his face. "Our family will be ruined." Grandfather Wilson, his voice trembling with desperation, stepped forward. "Miss Bianca, I beg you to reconsider. I was joking when I said those things... it was just a misunderstanding," he pleaded, his eyes filled with sorrow. "Misunderstanding?" Nathan snapped. "Yes, please," Victoria begged, and she desperately turned to Claire whose eyes were brimming with tears. "Please beg him; we can't afford to lose everything." But Claire stood frozen, too stunned to find the words. Nathan's eyes held no mercy as he turned away from the pleading faces of the Wilson family. "Let's get out of here," he commanded, his voice resolute. Bianca nodded, her expression unwavering. "Yes, Lord Cloud." She gestured to her team, and they began to gather their things. The Cloud Corporation executives followed, and also the ladies took the gifts along, and they all followed Nathan's lead, heading towards the door. The Royal Corporation also took their leave, but they could not help laughing at the Wilson family first. All the invited guests also proceeded to take their leave, leaving behind disdainful remarks as they exited. "How could they be so blind?" "Incompetent and ungrateful!" "How could they cut ties with the world-renowned legend? Their family is definitely done for!" Soon, the hall emptied, leaving only the Wilson family and Liam. "This is all your fault," Grandfather Wilson seethed, turning to Liam, pointing his walking stick accusingly. But Liam didn't appear frightened. "Mr. Wilson, do you really think a worthless man like him could be Lord Cloud? I received a message just now that Lord Cloud and his vice president are on their way to the capital for a meeting, and the Global Triad are expecting him." The Global Triad was a group of the three most powerful presidents in the world. They have come all the way to Prescott to see Lord Cloud. "WHAT???" The Wilson family exchanged bewildered glances, their hopes flickering amidst the chaos of the revelation. "So you're saying Nathan was just putting on a show to scare us?" Grandfather asked incredulously.

"Yes! Miss Bianca he called over was a fake! There's no way he could be Lord Cloud! I have met Lord Nathan and his Vice president personally and they look nothing like him" Liam continued to lie and the Wilson family fell fir this lies once again. "That rascal, how dare him!" Victoria said through gritted teeth. "So it was really all a scheme?" Ivan said. "I've always suspected him since the day he started to act like a child, he must have been preparing for this day and conspired with some paid actors" "Those gifts are worth millions of dollars, Nathan knew that we would kick him out so he wanted the gifts for himself, and now he has taken away those gifts worth millions of dollars" Claire added bitterly. "We cannot let it slide we must deal with Nathan at all cost!" Claire said she couldn't believe that she was almost fooled by Nathan's display. Nathan's convoy of black SUVs came to a stop at Nathan's command. "Lord Nathan, any problem?" Bianca, seated beside the dri

The manager furrowed his brow, eyeing Nathan with a mix of skepticism and curiosity. "It seems your card isn't working, sir. If you truly are Lord Cloud, you should be able to access this area without any issue." Nathan frowned, his mind racing. Something must have changed in the hotel’s security system without his knowledge. He decided to remain composed, knowing that losing his temper would only escalate the situation. "There must be a mistake. This card has always granted me access." Nathan said wearing a confused look. The bodyguard crossed his arms, a smug look on his face. "Sure, sure. Everyone's got an excuse. Why don't you just admit you're trying to scam your way in here and save us all some time?" Nathan took a deep breath, trying to remain calm. "There must be an issue with the security system," Nathan said calmly. "This card has never failed to grant me access before. Perhaps there have been some changes in the security system" "Yes, the systems were upgraded and

Nathan turned his attention to the manager, who stood trembling before him. The manager quickly bowed his head, his voice quivering as he spoke. "L-Lord Cloud, I humbly apologize for the misunderstanding. I had no idea it was truly you. Please, accept my deepest apologies for the way you were treated," Nathan regarded the manager with a measured gaze, his expression inscrutable. After a moment of tension-filled silence, he spoke. "Apologies are only as good as the actions that follow them. Ensure this never happens again. I expect the highest level of professionalism from my staff, especially in places that hold significant value to me and my family." The manager nodded vigorously, relief evident on his face. "Of course, Lord Cloud. I will make sure that this does not repeat itself." Nathan nodded slightly, accepting the manager's promise. "Here is your new VIP card, sir," Bianca said, handing over the gold-embellished card. Nathan took it, swiping the card, and the door swung

Nathan scoffed and said, "What do you mean? This is the Celestial Resort and not the Wilson's mansion, or is the Celestial Resort not somewhere I can visit?"Nathan placed his two hands in his pockets as he wore a confident look which seemed to enrage the Wilson family even more.Nathan should even be asking the Wilson family what they were doing here.The entire hotel was shut down because of the meeting he had with the Global Triad.As the country's largest and most exclusive hotel, the Celestial Resort was a favored gathering place for politicians and influential figures from around the world."Don't play dumb with me, you fool!" Ivan cursed, infuriated by Nathan's confidence.How could someone be so confident after stealing gifts worth millions of dollars?Nathan should be somewhere hiding off as the thief and liar he is."You think we don't know what you did last night?" Grandfather Wilson said, pointing his stick furiously at Nathan."What I did last night?" Nathan asked with a

"You never cease to stop spilling nonsense, Nathan," Grandfather Wilson said."Tonight the Global Triad, which consists of the three most powerful presidents in the world, will be meeting with Lord Cloud in this very same hotel. They are going to deliberate and announce their first key partner in Prescott, and that is going to be us," Ivan said, gesturing to the Wilson family."Oh, the Global Triad is here?" Nathan decided to play along with them like he did not know, meanwhile, the entire hotel was shut down because of him."Yes, the entire Celestial Resort was put on lockdown because of this meeting, and it was due to Liam's influence that we were granted access as important guests to meet with Lord Cloud firsthand. With this opportunity, we will be able to gain the favor of Lord Cloud and reach the top faster than anyone has ever done."Nathan looked frustrated at the family's ignorance. "There's no need to keep telling me about the Global Triad. Of course, I know that they are he

"I've told you times without numer that the gifts were from me but you did not believe me, but Liam never said a word and you believed it was from him" Nathan paused for a moment ad diverted his attention to Claire"I'm so disappointed in all of you especially Claire, you can't even distinguish between right and wrong"Ivan immediately interjected "Talking this lunatic is pointless, he must have been pretending to be unwell for the past year I order to gain our pity amd attention, and now he has stolen gifts worth million of naira from us, a pauper like him would never return the gifts, because he knows he would never see such money in his life, why then would he return it?"The family nodded in agreement to Ivan's words Claire couldn't believe that she had taken care of him for the past year not knowing he was just pretending, Victoria only wished she had gotten rid of him sooner. "How dare you think of keeping such viffts, do you know the consequences of doing so?" Victoria said a

Ivan scoffed and said, "Nathan, I was quite certain you were merely bluffing when you claimed the Global Triad had invited you here. I had no idea you had made such elaborate preparations. I must admit, I'm not entirely surprised - your forged invitation does appear quite authentic. You've clearly put in a great deal of effort."Ivan paused, a confident smile spreading across his face. "However, as I'm sure you're aware, the Celestial Resort always provides security details to escort any special guests, and they are the ones tasked with verifying invitations. If your invitation were genuine, they would have been the ones to present it to you."Nathan remained silent, recognizing the validity of Ivan's statement.In truth, the Celestial Resort had indeed dispatched a team of highly trained security personnel to escort Nathan, but he had sent them away, believing they were unnecessary as his own security contingent would suffice.At that moment, the Chief of Security nodded in agreement

"I have arrived at the hotel," Nathan stated."but I think there is a mix-up. The security chief seems to be harboring a certain prejudice against me." The security chief and the Wilson family looked at Nathan, laughing. This was obviously another one of Nathan's displays. He was pretending like he was talking to someone important. They were certainly not impressed. First, he produced a fake invitation claiming he was invited here by the Global Triad, who were extraordinarily powerful people, and now he was claiming to speak to someone of high importance. Nathan's stunts kept getting better and better.President Alexander's voice boomed with fury as he practically spat the words through the phone. "What?! How dare he have the audacity to do that?" The usually composed leader's demeanor had been shattered by the news relayed by Nathan.Nathan could practically feel the waves of anger radiating from the other end of the line. "Please, Lord Nathan, I need you to wait in the lobby," A

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.

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. The main building was an architectural masterpiece of glass and steel. Its walls displayed holographic art that shifted as they walked by. “Welcome to Starview Academy, Ms. Grace. You must be Brian,” one of the administrators, Ms. Calder

The house stood gracefully, surrounded by beautiful gardens filled with exotic plants. Brian couldn’t hold back his excitement. “Mom!!! Is this... is this where we’re staying?!” Clara stepped out gracefully and opened their doors. “Welcome to your new home, Ms. Grace... Brian. This is your new residence.” Brian practically jumped out of the SUV, his mouth falling open as he drooled at the sight. “Mom, it’s... it’s HUGE!” Grace stepped out slowly, breathless for a moment. The house was a masterpiece, with solar tiles lining the roof, while smart glass panels shimmered in response to the shifting light. The front entrance opened with a soft chime as soon as Clara stood close enough. The advanced security system scanned her face and unlocked immediately. The spacious interior was even more breathtaking. The floors were shiny, and the soft lighting made the entire place even more beautiful.

The jet’s engines roared to life, and the pitch increased as the aircraft began to accelerate down the runway. The onlookers watched in pained silence, their gazes fixed on the plane as it soared into the sky, climbing higher and higher until they could no longer see it. Vanessa’s breath hitched as she whispered, “They’re really gone...” Nathan slowly sighed, and after a while, they turned around and headed back to their car. The return journey was silent; the once-lively convoy felt hollow without Grace and Brian. Vanessa sat close to Nathan, and they both remained silent. Nathan stared out the window, his mind consumed by memories of Brian’s laughter and Grace’s warm smile. When they finally arrived at the Cloud Mansion, the house felt strangely empty, as though the walls themselves could feel the absence of two beloved souls. James parked the car and opened the door for Nathan. Nathan stared at the house for a long time before wheeling himself toward the entrance.

Nathan grasped his hand firmly. “President Alexander… I really appreciate you giving Grace this opportunity.” Alexander nodded. “It was the least I could do.” His gaze softened as he shifted to Grace. “Ms. Grace.” Grace stepped forward, offering a polite nod. “Thank you, Mr. President... for everything.” Alexander smiled warmly. “No need to thank me.” He then crouched slightly, meeting Brian’s curious gaze. “And you must be Brian.” Brian nodded confidently. “Are you the boss where we’re going?” Alexander chuckled. “You could say that. But something tells me you’ll be giving the orders soon enough.” Brian smiled proudly as he clutched his stuffed bear closer. Vanessa stepped forward first, embracing Grace tightly. “Remember... we’re always one call away.” Grace clung tightly like she never wanted to let go.

Grace moved swiftly as she packed her and Brian’s belongings. She checked every corner of the shared rooms to make sure they were not leaving anything valuable behind. Brian, who was now fully awake and excited, helped in his own way by stuffing his small backpack with his favorite toys, including his favorite stuffed bear. As Grace zipped the last suitcase shut, she felt a presence behind her. Turning, she saw James standing in the doorway. His expression was respectful, but she could see the sorrow in his eyes. The thought of Brian and Grace not being around anymore made his heart ache. “I’ve come to load the bags, ma’am,” James said, trying to hide the pain in his voice. “Thank you, James,” Grace replied warmly, offering him a faint but genuine smile. James immediately took the suitcases and carried them out to the car. He had seen many come and go from the Cloud mansion, but this goodbye felt the most painful.

“Let me be clear…” he said in a very sharp tone. “This wheelchair…” he paused, glancing at the polished armrest, “…is only temporary.” “I’ve faced death… stared into its cold eyes… and I won.” The room remained deathly silent. “This chair is only a sign of survival.” His voice intensified with a fierce passion. “I will rise even before I am sworn in as President of Prescott.” The hall erupted into murmurs as the reporters scrambled to record his powerful declaration. Nathan’s eyes gleamed with determination as he continued, this time with an icy tone. “To anyone out there questioning my ability to lead because I sit here today… understand this: I, Lord Cloud, will not fall! Not now. Not ever.” The room erupted into thunderous applause as they were inspired by his speech. Some who were shaken by his determination joined in the applause later. Reporters also joined to applaud Nathan. Some stood, overcome with emotion, while others shouted, “Long live Lord Cloud!” and

The grand Prescott Conference Hall was buzzing with anticipation. Reporters, journalists, and political analysts filled the room with their cameras poised and their microphones ready. The atmosphere was electric, and was filled with curiosity. Today we the day, Lord Cloud said he was going to make his speech after he was attacked by Darius and his men. At the front of the hall, was a polished wooden podium with the emblem of Prescott in it. The double doors at the back of the hall opened, and the room fell into a stunned silence. Nathan Cloud entered, guided by two security aides, with Vanessa walking closely beside him. He was still confined to his wheelchair, but his hard had not reduced even a bit. He wore a tailored gray suit, which made him look indomitable despite his condition. Vanessa, who was wearing an elegant black dress walked directly beside him. Cameras flashed relentlessly as the two made their way toward the stage. Murmurs rippled through the crowd, a lot of

The room was still alive with laughter and joy. Grace wiped tears from her cheeks and she clutched the delicate star pendant around her neck.As the celebration began to settle into quiet conversations, Bianca gently tapped a spoon against her glass, drawing everyone's attention.“Before we wrap this up,” Bianca said, her voice filled with emotion, “there’s someone very special who couldn’t be here today... but he insisted on joining us.”Grace’s breath caught as Bianca gestured toward the large screen on the wall. Suddenly, the screen lit up, revealing Nathan, seated in a wheelchair in his spacious study at the Cloud mansion. He wore a tailored blazer despite his seated position, exuding his usual commanding presence, although his expression was softer than usual.“Hello, everyone,” Nathan’s deep voice resonated through the room and everywhere became still immediately, His eyes held a spark of warmth as they met Grace eyes she was almost in tears from the overwhelming emotions.
