The manager was furious and tried to stop him, but his entire bank details had popped up on the screen of the computer and as the manager glanced at it, his eyes went wild.
“My God!! What the hell is this, I have never seen such a huge amount of money before, there are so many zeros that we can't even count it”.
He exclaimed and as he drifted his gaze back to Lucas, he immediately went on his knees.
“Please, Sir! Have mercy, I sincerely apologize, I mistook you for a worthless human, please pardon me” He kept bowing his head as he apologized.
Lucas was stunned for this was a man old enough to be his father his head bowing at him on the floor.
“It is alright sir, please get up”
“Please sir, you are our number one customer and I assure you that we will never treat you with such disrespect again, I assure you ”
“I know that you won't, so please get on your feet. ”. A reassuring smile filled Lucas's face as he watched the old man return to his seat and did not dare look at him with a disdainful expression again.
There was so much excitement that filled Lucas's heart and all he felt like doing at that moment was scream at the top of his voice and let the whole world know that he was now a trillionaire and was ready to put all those that hurt him in their place, but he was educated and knew what better way to act than gloat over his wealth.
“So Mr Cooper, welcome to Chicago Wells Bank, your name has been identified as the top VIP of our bank and we promise to provide you with nothing but the best services”.
“Thank you, Sir, I am glad to hear this”
“Is there something that you will need me to do for you?”
“Yes! First I am going to need the limitless black card”.
“Yes Mr. Cooper, the highest blank card of our bank is the titanium black card and I will process it as soon as possible, please just be patient with me for a few more minutes”.
Lucas nodded in affirmation as he watched the manager scurry over to his fridge and strode back with a bottle of red wine and a neat glass.
“Here is some refreshment while I process your card, if this wine is not to your taste then please inform and I will provide something more suitable for your class and status”.
“This will be fine, just go ahead and process the black card”. The manager smiled politely and scurried back to his swivel chair while he kept clicking through the keyboard of his computer.
Lucas was slowly sipping through the glass of wine, he was exhausted and hungry considering that he hadn't had anything to eat or drink since yesterday because he was trying to save up for Lydia's birthday which didn't go well.
Once the manager was through with all the processes, he handed the black titanium card to him in an envelope.
“Thank you, Sir, once again I apologize for the way I treated you”. The manager kept apologizing as he opened the door for him.
Everyone in the banking hall who watched the door open from the balcony could not wait to crack up and mock him over his illusion transaction, but as they watched the manager apologizing and bowing before him, their jaws dropped in bewilderment.
“Could it be that he indeed has such a huge amount of money in his account?” one of the customers asked the staff that was tending to him.
“It will seem so, because that is the only reason why the manager will bow to him” The female staff spoke, her eyes never drifting away from Lucas as she watched the manager serve him politely.
Striding out of the bank, he was thinking of giving Lydia a second chance and having a rethink of her action. He knew that he finally had a chance to get Lydia back and there was no way that she wouldn't accept him if he showed him he had money. A lot of thoughts came into his mind, thinking maybe he should get himself Royce and an expensive thing to win Lydia, but said to himself that that was not a wise decision because she would come for money not him. Let me suffer a little humiliation from her for the last time and see how it feels if someone is rich and humiliated.
So he took the bus and hurried to her workplace which was a movie set location.
Despite all Jared has been promising her, she hasn't been able to act the lead role but was hoping that in the upcoming movie, Jared would finally give her the role.
She sat under the sun holding a mini fan while her assistant was standing beside her holding an umbrella that prevented her from getting her soft and silk skin penetrated by the sun.
Other actresses were sitting beside her, and suddenly she could hear a mocking laugh around there Lucas walked up to her dressed in the same old, torn and dirty clothes he had been wearing yesterday and she immediately felt like the ground should open and swallow her.
“Lydia! It Lucas, what are you going to do?” Sheila her best friend who was sitting close to her inquired.
“What else can I do rather than ignore him and pretend like he does not exist.” She replied and had her face in the other direction, but Lucas walked up close to her and stood right in front of her there was no way she could ignore him much longer.
“Lucas! Hi” Sheila greeted politely but Lydia rolled her eyes at her. “Are you this dumb or stupid, why would you even speak to a low life like him, this is perhaps the reason you haven't been able to act a tangible role since you started your career as an actress”
The words hit Shiela hard, but she still managed to maintain a pretty smile. Although she was not as pretty as Lydia, she had a smooth and fair face, her round shape complimented those deep hazel eyes and that pointed nose…
She was not as slender as Lydia, but she still strives towards it each day by going on a diet consistently while her long and thick black hair stumbles around her shoulder giving her a fairytale countenance.
“Lydia please can I speak to you for a moment?” He asked and Lydia took a peek at her surroundings as she bit her lips hard feeling furious at the mocking gaze around her, while some stared down at her with the belittled gaze.

Chapter Five Lydia knew that there was no way she could run out of there and all she needed to do was chase him away before Jared arrived else he might get a second thought of marrying her. “Lucas, what do you want? Why can't you just leave me, or is it so difficult for you to understand that I do not want to ever set my eyes on you, you disgust me so much that I get this urge to puke”“Please Lydia, I have money now, we can finally start our family and live a happy life” She scoffs sarcastically, the metaphor in his words was so hilarious that she could not help but laugh out loud. “You have money! You Lucas can not ever be rich in this lifetime or the next no matter how many jobs you work and what I hear you say about a happy family, you must be indeed delusional to think that anyone can be happy with you”“Lydia can you take it more easily, that was too harsh on him, he is also human and has emotions like we do” Sheila queried. “Will you shut up!

He went over there in search of Fabian at work who had advised him to play the bet even though it was his last earn, but it turned out that he had just been fired, even searching for him where he squatted in the past, but he had also been vacated there. There was a flash of frustration and disappointment in Lucas' eyes, he wanted to share this happy moment with the only one that has been with him through all thick and thin but fate decided to play a fast trick on them.

He muttered to himself, these people haven't changed their old ways, common gathering is on the news. "Lucas, this is the time to pay these people their coins, take back what they had taken fro

He glanced at the clock and was surprised to see that it was already the middle of the night. He ordered light food to be delivered to his room. His door was knocked after 5 minutes. He knew his food had arrived but didn't want the room service staff to enter his room because it was late. He hurried to meet her at the entrance and was surprised to see Abby's manager sleeping on his knees. He collected his food and sent the lady back. He noticed that he could not move one of his legs because it had been grabbed by the manager. He looked back and the manager started begging him that he should take the motor and kill him right away, he knew if he died after selling the car his family would not suffer again. Lucas observed him for 3 minutes and asked him to enter his room. He s

Chapter 8 Inside the club is filled with bubbling lights and calm music, every interior use inside was sophisticated ranging from the lodges to the bar and the relaxation area with an adorned piece of art and a bar filled with a wide range of drinks to suit every taste of their members. Behind the building, there was also a swimming pool and places for sports like golf, table tennis, and volleyball, which is why people find pleasure in coming here because, other than just the quality of the place, there were fine things that they could do or watch others doing. Lucas's gaze met the family of eight that were all sitting at a spacious lodge, and he strided towards them, biting his lip nervously. “Lucas! What the hell are you doing here, and who told you that you can finally come back to the clan's annual meeting?” Sean roared as he got on his feet while the entire family that was having a chit-chat turned their attention to him. “How did you get inside?” Uncle Tristan asked.

Chapter 9: The conversation went on and on while the others were having a good time, Lucas stood there pouring in drinks to whoever needed them. Sean suddenly got on his feet and walked over to Lucas, a disdainful smile on his cheek while he held his glass of wine and slowly sipped through it. “Lucas dear, how have you been, I never thought that you would ever come back to this family after how badly you have been treated, don't you have a single atom of shame in you” “This is my family, why should I be afraid to go back to my family?” “And you do not care even if all this same family has ever done was to ridicule you. I Remember vividly that the last time you were here, Uncle Kendrick called the cops on you and asked them to brutalise you, I don't know why he had a change of mind to let you stay for a minute this time around?” He allowed me to stay because he had eyes," Lucas retorted. "Do you mean he thought you had arrived because of this fake designer you put on, can he

CHAPTER 10 “Lucas! You need to understand that if this is some sort of replica of the original titanium card and you brought this shit out to deceive us, we are not going to let you get away with it” Says Madam Jane. “This is the original, it has its initials and there are only five people in Chicago that have access to it, even my Boss has tried several times to get it, but he was declined by the manager”.Everyone was confused about how Lucas could get his hand on something like this, his Initial ‘Lucas. C. ’ Was boldly written on it and there was no way one would say that he stole it. Madam Jane handed out the black card again to the waiter and he slotted it in, the payment went successfully before he handed out the receipt and the card to Lucas while bowing his head at him. “Thank you Sir for your patronage and we expect to see you purchase the membership Card of this esteemed club”.“Thanks, I will think about it” Lucas replied politely while everyone kept staring at him wit

Lucas drove back in his luxurious car to the hotel, he was so exhausted when he arrived at the hotel room that he dipped himself in a bathtub and dozed off. The next day, he had already sent an entire designer collection to his room. He got dressed in a blue leather suit. They were sleek and shiny, and one could see a reflection of themselves from it. The Chauffeur was already in the car waiting for him and they immediately drove off to COOPERS ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY. On their way, there was suddenly traffic but they could not comprehend what exactly was going on there, the chauffeur tilted his head outside hoping to catch a glimpse of what was going on and to his amusement was a scene of a man being beaten almost to death. “Sir! I think it is a group of men beating up a young man that has caused the traffic on the road” He explained and Lucas also stretched out his head outside to get a glimpse of the situation. The young man on the floor looked so familiar that he had to al

The manager of Coopers Entertainment Mr. Alfred had been informed of Lucas’s arrival and with the picture that he held, he had been waiting for him for a long time when he finally saw a commotion going on downstairs and noticed that it was the one he had been waiting for. He was almost startled, with his brow furrowed as he scurried downstairs to the scene where Jared had mobilized the securities that were going to beat Lucas up. “Boss! ” Alfred called and they all turned around wondering whom he was talking about, there was no way that a low life like Lucas who is a live-in Son-in-law of the Hales family would be invited here. “We have been waiting for you upstairs without realizing that you were here, is there an issue?” Alfred inquired as he narrowed his gaze to Jared and then drifted to the securities. “Not at all, I just met an old friend and was saying hello to him” “Alright, let's go inside, the others have been waiting for you”. Alfred bows to him while they watch with

Lucas and Sheila walked in like a newlywed couple.All eyes were on them; some couldn't believe what they saw; the clothes they were wearing were screaming wealth.Lydia rolled her eyes toone side as she saw them and muttered, “Lucas and Drama, who did he want to impress? He wore a fake designer to feel among them.” Two ladies who had attacked Sheila came before them and stopped them from moving forward.“Where do you think you are going? You have heard that the CEO won't make it here today, and you invited your pauper boyfriend to show up with fake designers,” one of the ladies told them.“Stay out of our way,” Sheila warned them, but they refused. “You and your stinky boyfriend should leave this venue now before we disrespect you.”A sly grin escaped from the corner of Lucas' mouth as she watched them rant.“It is obvious that you ladies are tired of working here; you will soon be served your relief of appointments,” Lucas said.“Who is he that will serve us relief from duty?” “Y

Elite should hold its stinky award for its dirty people; I don't do with the crowd; anytime it has a standard award, I should be invited." She talked so loudly that her mother could hear where she was, but she was unfazed; she thought Lydia was just talking to get her attention. She wondered where she was. Lydia wanted to drop her phone on the couch again. Her eyes swiftly caught the CEO on the text message, but she could not fathom what the CEO was doing in the message immediately. She instantly took the phone back and read the text message again. Her eyes lit up instantly; her eyes were brimming with joy as she read the CEO part. She thought another chance had come for her, and she had to be smart to take it. She walked to her room to check her poster and her skin. She saw that she had not been taking
