THE HEIR OF BELCRAFT Chapter 23
Thompson glanced at Lucas strangely after which he took the call from Blake.“Hi Blake, I’m currently doing what he asked me to do. Does he have a change of heart now?” Thompson asked, with a hopeful heart. He had thought that Blake had called him to tell him to stop cleaning since the Ceo had a change of heart. “No…I bring another news instead”, Blake replied and line went silent. “The CEO has extended the number of days he wants you to clean the restroom. Rather than three days, he wants it to be one week”, Blake dropped and for a minute, Thompson thought that he had just heard wrongly. “One week? How? Why?” He asked, almost yelling at the top of his voice. Just as usual, Blake had no other response and so, he dropped the call.Thompson let out a loud yell of frustration after which he slammed his fist on the wall, wincing in pain and frustration.Each of his reaction was captured on the phones of various students around and that only heightened how much of insults they threw a

Lucas got out of shower and slid into his normal old pair of pants and very rumpled shirts. He had a meeting with the board of directors but wasn’t ready to make his identity known.At this, he planned to go to a very discreet place where he could have the meeting online, without any form of distraction.He found an empty class and realized that it would be best for what he wants to do. Lucas wore his disguise; a very thick cap, a dark shades and a black hoodie. It was a virtual meeting, but he wanted to be certain that no one catches a glimpse of what he looked like. He placed his phone before him and looked into his camera just as they meeting venue came into view. “Hello everyone. It’s nice to finally meet the board and directors responsible for the progress of this company”, he said from his video end. He observed how each of them exchanged glances with themselves. It was clear that they expected him to show himself physically.“This is my regime and that simply means that I w

She smiled at him and for a moment, his heart melted. He never thought or imagined that she would reciprocate his gestures. “What are you doing here…I mean, what is your name?” He stuttered, almost at the verge of losing his stance. The only person that ever made him feel so giddy and anxious was Ella. Inasmuch as this gave him a sort of nostalgia, he didn’t deny the fact that he wanted to get to know her. “My name is Emily”, she replied, grinning from ear to ear. Lucas gulped down hard and took a seat beside her. His heart was still hurting from how Ella broke his heart, but he was ready to have another relationship. This time though, he had to be certain that the person wasn’t after something like Ella was.“What’s your name?” She asked, startling Lucas who was already lost in thoughts. Lucas cleared up his throat after which he smiled at her and peered into her eyes. “I’m Lucas”, he replied and for a moment, they remained still, staring at each other. Just then, their phone

Lucas placed a call across to Blake when he got back to his room. As usual, his friends were out partying and that gave him the opportunity to spend some time with himself.“I have the next task for Thomas if he is still interested in winning my favor”, Lucas said, with a small smirk plastered on his lips. The conversation he heard earlier was just what he wanted to bring the both of them down. He knew that Thompson never loved Ella, but this was just the perfect example he wanted. “Tell him that he needs to do a video. He would tell the world the truth about what he feels about Ella”, Lucas dropped and for a minute, the line went silent. Blake was finding out to decipher what he was saying at the moment. But then, he took in a deep breath and wore a smile.“You want me to tell him that?” Blake asked Lucas who nodded his head in affirmation.“Please tell him that it has to be the truth because if he lies about it, everything would end. Tell him that I know the truth about the situat
THE HEIR OF BELCRAFT Chapter 27
The call dropped, leaving Thompson who silently wished that he was only in a dream. He let out a scoff after which he broke into a loud round of laughter. It was hard to believe what he just heard and what he was asked to do. After a moment of brooding, he realized that he had an answer to the request he just got. He would just do a live video where he praise Ella and tell her that she loves him, even if he doesn't.With this in mind, he concluded that it was easy peasy.The next day at school, Thompson went live on his social media page, with the intention to profess his undying love to Ella. Lucas was ready for the drama because he was quite certain that Thompson intended to play around the situation and do as he pleased."Hello my dear students...this is a video you all have been waiting for", Thomspon started, with a bright smile spread across his lips.He was so anxious and nervous about this, especially because he couldn't help to think or imagine why the new heir wanted him
THE HEIR OF BELCRAFT Chapter 28
Thompson was cold when he listened to all what Blake said on the call. "What the hell is going on? What do you mean by saying that the new CEO watched my live video?" He asked, with his heart beating out of his chest.He was scared and confused because he has never set eyes on the CEO but it felt as if the CEO was watching him every minute."That was his message. He wants you to tell her the truth and you have less than thirty minutes to do that", Blake divulged, leaving Thompson who stared into space.Thompson wiped off the beads of sweats on his forehead after which he tried to keep his heart steady.This was becoming tougher than he thought or imagined. A moment ago, he thought that he had regained his face and stand in the college. However, doing this would mean that he is going to be termed a liar forever."Shit!" He cursed, smashing his fist into the wall and wincing in pain. He made to reject the order but he knew that it would cause a great problem for both him and his family

Lucas wore a big smile as he watched the different news that circulated around the internet about Thompson and Ella. Now, both their companies were in trouble and would be needing a big support from the Belcraft group in order to regain their name.Thompson was the first to return home after the fight with Ella. He couldn't even move around with his face in view. At this, he wore a disguise that prevented people from realizing that it was him.The minute he walked into the massive living room of his home, his parents were seated on a couch and awaiting his arrival. "How dare you drag our family's name in such manner?" His father roared in rage as he walked over to him, breathing heavily and clenching his fist. Thompson sighed deeply and darted his eyes away. Even if he felt bad for damaging the family's reputation, he didn't feel so much regret for what he did to Ella."I did what I had to do! Do you know how she pounced on me? She would have killed me if I didn't react!" Thompson

Lucas walked into his grandfather's quarters, with a big smile on his lips. He pulled him into a warm hug after which he sat across him."Grandfather, you asked to see me", Lucas said as he looked at his grandfather with a curious look on his face. His grandfather looked at him and smiled softly. He couldn't help but feel glad that Lucas came into the situation just when he was needed."I've heard of how you've been dealing with dishonest people in disguise", he said to Lucas who took in a deep breath and nodded his head in affirmation."Aren't you ready to come out and show the world who you are?" He asked Lucas who stayed mute for a while, but shook his head negatively."I need to remain low for now. It would help me", he explained and his grandfather nodded in affirmation.Silence rented the atmosphere after which his grandfather cleared his throat and rested his gaze on him."You need to get engaged to someone. That would make you look a lot more responsible and would also streng

Before Lucas could make a movement out of the location, a gang of boys had gathered already, surrounding him. The old man couldn't just stop calling him a thief even after he had explained to him that the money belonged to him. However, at some point in time, Lucas couldn't blame them. He had not taken his time to think through his actions. He should have known that it was definitely going to be outrageous for an odd looking man like him to display such huge amount of money, even if he was in disguise. No one but him knew he was in disguise as a poor man after all.Soon enough, it looked to him like the old man had filled the gang in with the wrong details. That explained the disapproving and angry stares they gave to him. It was unfortunate that even as he tried to plead with them so he could tell them the truth from the misconception the old man had, they had began to throw blows at him, kicking and slapping him at the same time.Lucas considered their action to be inconsiderate, i

He was more shocked to see the group of people staring at him, confusion spread out on their faces. There were just three of them. Three women, staring at him. And neither of them was ready to move away from the spot they were standing at. Although he wasn't surprised at how they stared at him. As of that time, he was no longer the rich looking, handsome billionaire. He was now an ugly haggard poor man who was sniffing around the cliff, probably searching for what to eat. After staring at them in silence for quite some time, he decided to make a move as he suddenly remembered what he had thought of doing if things didn't work out fine. As usual, there was always a plan B.Surprisingly, the first step he took made them take another step back. Despite given the distance, he could still see the distrust that equally led to fear on their faces. Of course, he should have expected that. “I won't hurt you please. I just need to ask you a few questions.” He said, taking another step towards

The last action he did was button up the torn trousers he was putting on. Unfortunately for him, he didn't have a mirror where he could look up himself to see how he looked in his disguised form. He had made a mental note to himself before leaving the house that he had to look the poorest ever.After his several attempts to make the people around him believe that Emily was not dead had failed, Lucas took it upon himself to go search for her himself. He knew how hard he had paid people to go in search of her. However, it was heart breaking to say that there was no one who took it in their deep interest to find her because if they did, he was pretty sure that some positive results would have come out. He was presently at one of the abandoned and deserted warehouses he knew about. That was another perfect spot for a billionaire like him to suddenly transform himself into a disgusted poor man which people would want to stay away from. He had chosen the warehouse, far from the mansion so

“He used to be a student at the school.” The words of Mr. Shaw couldn't stop playing in her head. “I was able to go into the city. That was the only place I could think of finding him since no one here knew who he was. And I had to start from where we had found you. When there was nothing positive there, I moved further. Along the line, I was able to find a group of people, young boys especially who had an idea of him. According to the people I found, he used to be a student at one Belmont Academy.” The old man explained to Emily.At first, when he had come into the house with the good news of having found the man in the picture and knowing his location, Emily felt her heart gladden. Even if they were on a maybe part of finding him, she believed a clue was worth something. But as it stood, she had just one question… how would she find him in a big school just as the old man described? From the look of the young man in the picture, he didn't look like one to still be in school. So, wh

It was two days gone in her new place, and Emily still couldn't remember who she was or where she came from. All she had with her was her name which sometimes she questions if it might truly be her name. And also the picture which she had given to Mr. Shaw to help her find the truth behind it. Ever since the date she found the picture, she took it upon herself to search every nook and cranny of the bag said to belong to her, with the intention of finding anything else that could tell her who she truly was. Unfortunately, there was nothing. It was just a bunch of make up kit, the name tag, and the picture. However, what Emily was truly focused on at the moment was finding out who the man in the picture was. She believed that if she found out who he truly was, it could be a lead to her real identity.Now, she was home alone like the previous days. Mrs. Shaw had gone to her place of business, insisting that she had to fully recover before she would start working for her as they had agre

Blake stood to stare at his friend in confusion. He didn't want to believe what he had just heard from him. But then, he was forced to believe him, owning to the seriousness on his face. “I have a lot of questions concerning this if you're actually serious about it.” Blake finally opened up to say.There was a reign of silence as Lucas didn't respond to him. “How did you leave to find Emily? Where did you also go to find her, Lucas?” Blake asked, hoping he would still get a response from him because definitely, he was curious.“When you all were asleep, foolishly believing that she is actually gone for good.” Lucas answered, a sting of betrayal playing in his voice. “Lucas, you're endangering your life.” Blake said, concern glaring in his voice.“I don't care if I had to do that. All I want is to find my woman.” Lucas said forcefully, turning to look back at Blake.“Let me remind you that this supposed woman is dead.” Blake said. “Her body was not found. That doesn't mean that she

“Is he still locked up in his room?” Mr. Belcraft asked Blake the moment he walked in. Blake let out a deep sigh firstly before he could respond.“I'm just coming in. But I bet he would still be locked up in his room.” Blake finally answered. The old man was the next on line to let out a deep sigh. When Blake watched him closely, he could see the wrinkles which had appeared on his face. It was clear to him that the old man was more stressed up than anyone else could be.And truth be told, he just had to be, owning to the fact that he deeply cared about his grandson.“Will you help me go check up on him?” Mr. Belcraft opened up again, pleadingly.“Of course Mr. Belcraft. I would do that.” Blake said, and he nodded his head in approval. Blake then turned in the attempt of doing what he had come to do as well as what he had been pleaded to do. However, just when he was about to take further steps upstairs, leading to Lucas room, he suddenly stopped. He quickly turned back to him. “Mr. B

All through the ride last night, Emily couldn't get her head off the fact that she was about to go start a new life in a village she knew no one or nothing about. Although underneath the scary feeling, she felt thrilled to go start a new life. When she thought deeper about the bold step she had taken towards an unknown destination, she pushed aside the fear that clunged onto her. After all, she couldn't remember who she was. There was a possibility her new journey could make it all happen. The clattering sound she had heard caused her to open her eyes, and sit on the bed. "Oh, God." She yawned deeply. For a minute, she had forgotten that she was now in the home of her saviors, the old woman and her husband. After she had pleaded with her to let her leave with them, the old woman had thought of it wise to inform her husband. Clearly, Emily didn't object to it. All she did was pray inwardly that the old man was going to accept it. And he did. While they took it upon themselves t

She had thought that the smell of drugs, syringe, and possible vomit had only conjured in her dream. However, she was all wrong when she opened up her eyes. Her first sight was the bulb producing light which was on, and the rolling fan. She stayed put for a while as she tried hard to realize where she was. Sadly, the harder she tried, the more pain she felt. The young lady closed her eyes shut again. This was in a bid to calm her hurting head, and also see if she could get anything. When she did it for the longest time she could remember, and nothing happened, she opened back her eyes. It was at that time she used the opportunity to look around where she was. Definitely, she had not been wrong when the smell told her she could be in a hospital. Even if her memory had a bit of lagging behind, she could as well recognize what an hospital looked like. But, she still couldn't think past the question she had. Why was she in a hospital? She thought. Despite the struggles, she finally
