THE RETURN OF BILLIONAIRE DON Chapter 68: What Causes Flames
I brought in a white board in front of the parlour. “Look here. I am trying to put these things together. None of it is actually making sense now. I feel like there is something that is not showing on the surface.” I said looking at the clues that we have been able to gather. “For now we need to see how we can find any of those witnesses who said they saw the person who set the fire.” I added. “I think Ashely should be able to help with that. She received a call from someone who claimed to have seen the person. Let me call her. What should I ask her?” Pain asked. “ask for the witness number. We need to talk to the witness.” I added. “ok Pain replied as he walked aside to handle that. I downloaded the image of the burnt malls. Also pictures of all the investors of the mall and even various rival’s malls and I found out something shocking. I discovered that the guy who Maggie had told me about in the conference owned a rival mall. He is also an investor of one of the malls, the one

I printed out some more pictures. “I have it, the CCTV footage. Ashely sent it.” Pain said. I took it and as we looked at it, we noticed something. “something is off.” I said as I replayed the footage over and over again. “That lady said there was a truck parked outside but there’s no truck at all in this video.” Pain said. “yes and also it looks like someone tampered with the video. This isn’t the complete thing” I added. “whoever is behind this must have planned this for a while.” Pain said, shaking his head. “We have to identify the possible suspects for the fire.” I said looking at the pictures I had printed. I took El Malid’s picture and placed it on the white board. “he is my first suspect because he owns a very huge mall at the eastern bay and yet he owns a share in the one that just got burnt. Why invest in your competition?” I wondered. “Wait, what if the guy is just very ambitious? What if he sees profit in it?” Pain asked. “hmm. You are right though. I thought about tha

John walked back to his office really confused. “that day was the same day that Tony was missing wasn’t it? That was the same day that Tony left my son alone in his house.” John said, pondering. “but Tony told me that he went to see a friend that day. Why would he… something is not right. Trina was also feeling very panicked that day. A lot of things don’t just add up.” John said calculating. John was confused.I entered El Malid's tech company and he did have a lot of workers. I walked straight to the receptionist. “Good afternoon. I am Tony Jason. I have an appointment with Mr. Malid.” I said looking at the watch hoping not to waste time there. “ok sir. Hold on let me check.” She said as she picked up a cell phone and called El Malid’s office. “tell him the president of BRADON.” I added. She looked at me weirdly and said. “he claims to be the president of BRADON.” She said sizing me up. She dropped the call and said. “ok you may go to the first floor someone would be there to rec

Pain was shocked at his discovery. “I can’t believe that Malid was supposed to marry Maggie. Tony needs to hear this.” As he picked up the phone to call me but remembered I told him I will be busy for a while. He then continued to clip the extra information on the board. As I walked out of the company, my instinct told me to check the van. I waited outside for those where driving the truck to leave. They parked it and left. I walked towards the truck and looked through the truck to see if I could find anything. I then began to smell a strong smell in a particular truck. It smelled very similar to kerosene, but nothing was inside the truck. I then heard a voice behind me. “Hey, who are you? You are not supposed to be here.” The voice shouted. “oh I am sorry. I must have gotten lost on my way out.” I said pretending not to know where I was. “Thank you so much.” I said as I left. At this point I was very certain that Malid had something to do with at least one of the fires if not bot

“I will count one to three. You will transfer all the money that Maggie had lost from her bank.” I said with a more serious face. Malid looked at me scared. He was trying to reach a device on his hand. He finally did. “I won’t do any of that.” He said with a loud voice. The next thing I know a bunch of bots came and started to shoot lasers. Pain had to let go of Malid as we both tried to fight the bots. Malid was trying to run away. “Tony don’t let him escape, I will stop the bots.” Pain shouted. I ran after Malid who was trying to get into his car. He got into his car and I chased after him with the nearest car. I broke into the car and chased after the car. He was driving at a high speed and I increased my speed even more. I was able to corner him. “come down from the car Malid there’s nowhere for you to run.” I said as I got down from the car and hijacked him out of his car. “Why are you after me? you don’t even know me.” Malid shouted angrily. I took off the device on his hand

I walked towards the lobby to pick up the call. “Hello Sarah, how are you?” I asked. “I am fine tony. How are you?” she asked back. “I am good.” I replied. “oh ok. I was wondering if you would be free tomorrow?” she asked. I wondered what she wanted. “yeah, is there any problem?” I asked. “no nothing really, remember when I said from now on I was going to take care of you? Yeah I really mean it and since you are free tomorrow it’s a win, win. Can we both go on a second date?” she asked shyly. “a second date!?” I exclaimed. I was a bit surprised that she would call it a date. “Yes, a second date. I hope I am not disturbing something serious?” she asked. “no, no you are not. I don’t mind. I just thought that you wouldn’t be psychologically ready to go anywhere yet since what happened.” I replied. “yeah but a therapist has been seeing me and told me to even go out and not stay locked up.” She replied. “Yeah, the therapist is right. So how does tomorrow morning sound?” I asked. “Yeah,

“Miss Wellington, you had a visitor.” Mr. Walter said once again with a serious face. “you left this house very early when you thought it was Tony that sent you a message. But now you are playing with Frankia when you have a visitor, Miss wellington.” Mr. Walter said seriously. “What do you mean Mr. Walter? Am I not allowed to play with my dog?” Sarah asked in an angry tone. “Of course Miss Wellington but not when, you know what I mean.” He added to his defence, noticing her change of tone. “I just want to understand better. Do you like Tony?” he asked further. “Since when have you been interested in my love life Mr. Walter? You never really cared before when I had a boyfriend so why are you so curious now?” Sarah asked playfully. “Well because you are grown up I have noticed the way you are with Tony.” He replied. “So what if I like him?” Sarah asked. “You know it’s not possible right?” he replied. “why isn’t it? Because we might be different and were brought up differently?” Sa

“Charlie! What are you doing here?” I shouted. “I am here to formally apologise to you.” He replied. “apologise!?” I was confused. “Yes, apologise for everything I had done to you both in the past and present.” He added. “I don’t know exactly what you are playing at, but listen Charlie if you’ve forgotten. I know you so well. There’s no way you are here just to apologise. And if it is an apology, I don’t want it. Please leave.” I said as I walked closer. “Tony I know that I had hurt you a lot in the past but your attitude is still the same. You are acting like you have never made a mistake and wanted to rectify it so bad. I agree that kidnapping Miss Wellington was a bit overboard but Mr. Wellington didn’t want to agree. It was the option we had.” He said. “it was the option you tried. Besides that, being a flimsy excuse. Trying to force someone to sign a deal is bad and illegal. For your information we know that the Lotus group is not how they paint themselves to be. Please don’t

Chapter 227: The Hustle Paid Off Poverty
I wanted to save his face the disgrace of his past life. I asked him to walk to the cafeteria while I follow him behind and he did as I commanded him. The cafeteria is a big one with so many serving tables here and there. Some of the costumers were eating some Kenyan delicacies and you needed to see how they were devouring the "sumptuous" meal. It had a good aroma that would cause anyone that is famished to salivate but this wasn't the time to try their food. Douglas and I had something important to discuss. We sat at the nearest serving table as I signaled the waiter to get us soft drinks. My kindness caused Douglas to fear the more. He thought I was doing him a favour that he would pay back in a thousand folds. But this wasn't so. He wasn't thinking well enough. I wanted to hear his story. Everything about him. The waiter had served us the drinks. It was enough to calm my nerves down. I gulped it as I was thirsty. Douglas felt very reluctant to take his drink. But I asked him to tak

Chapter 226: Guess Who I Found?
I wasn't too sure if the idea of naming the child George was a good one. How will John and his wife take it? Will they be happy about it? Will I be mocking them with the name? I hope my son will not die prematurely like the late George? My mind was preoccupied with these thoughts so I had to relax for a while. When there wasn't any other name that my heart desired, we named the child George. Sometimes, our fears only threatens us but if we shun the threat, we would be heading for success. The christening was a success and to my greatest surprise, John and his wife were happy about it. The way they snuggled the child in their arms read a million meanings. Lyda said that he looked like George during his days as a toddler. She smiled and hoped that he lived long. Thank Goodness I didn't change the name. After another week or so, I travelled for a leadership conference at Nairobi - the capital of Kenya. It was hosted by one of the most accomplished business man in the world and it was hel

Chapter 225: The Return of George
Maggie and I were having all the fun in this world. It was just she and I. No disturbance. I kept the news of Mama's death at the back of my memory. I wouldn't let it interfere with the nice time I was having with the love of my life. The wailing was for Uloma and Lizzy to do. I wailed enough while she was alive. Even in her wickedness, I loved her. I hope that her soul find rest in heaven or wherever! It's God's choice not mine. It was the first time Maggie had a sexual experience. She was a virgin. No one would believe she was because she was a full grown up lady. All through her years with Malid, they maintained "sexual distancing". Malid must have his own good sides too. Waiting till after marriage before such an experience must have come with a lot of patience. But maybe he wasn't patient enough so he loose his girl and not only his girl, but now, his life. I wonder what explanation he was going to give his creator for taking the life that was given to him on a platter of gold. I

Chapter 224: Farewell to a Miserable Life
In as much as we all enjoy peace, no one desires an eternal peace or say rest. But this wasn't the case for Mama - Uloma's mother. She desired death even though her children rebuked her severally. "Mama, don't say that!" "Mama, stop!!!" They cautioned. They warn her on a daily basis about her pessimism but she turned deaf to everything they ever said to her. She wanted a ticket to hell or wherever because life was teaching her hard lessons. She suffered from chronic fever, an illness one would consider "minor" or "ordinary" but it was getting worse by the day. There wasn't any kind of treatment Mama didn't receive. They did one thing or the other to ensure they meet up with the bills. They sold some of their properties and even their bodies for money to take good care of Mama. They went out of their comfort and did some menial jobs and secured something profitable for themselves. There was virtually nothing they didn't do. But their efforts were not amounting to any positive result.

Chapter 223: Peace Comes After Justice
I danced David's dance at the reception of my wedding. We were so elated and fulfilled. I now had a woman I could call mine with confidence. Friends and family joined in our dance. The bridal train were not left out too. The songs were so melodious. I mean, it was remedy for any broken heart. The musical instruments synchronized without any flop and we were just taking different steps - from left to right. We heard of the tragedy. It was as though we didn't hear the right thing. But it was true. Zero lies. It was so pathetic - the untimely death of Malid. No one could have thought that he would kick the bucket so quickly with the life of wealth he lived in. It was no news that he killed himself with poison right inside his room. He just wasted his life for nothing. He threw his poor family into mourning and complete bitterness. They hearts were heavier than the stone that was used to cover Jesus' tomb. The rumor was all around the place. It was everywhere that the founder of El-Tech c

Chapter 222: The Last Drink
Nobody would believe that I "snatched" Maggie from him. After all, I didn't do that. She simply got too tired of him so she "kicked" him out of her life and will not allow him back. Thank God for Thunder who stopped him right at the gate perhaps he would have done something worst. He was such an animal. I think God assigned some angels to create him and that day, they were too tired to add a pitch of calmness in him. He just liked to burn everywhere he is found. But the fire from a lantern is not same as the one that erupts from a cooking gas. Thunder's punches were enough lessons for him and a warning never to thread the path of lions like us. Malid got home badly injured. He collapsed on his couch in tears. He had sacked all his staff and some of them resigned because they could no longer be patient with him. He was acting like a demigod and they wouldn't let another man trample on them like a snake Malid hates to see. He was growing more wild by the day so they all had to leave him

Chapter 221: No way!
I think Maggie is truly the divine woman made for me because for the first time in my entire life, I felt truly loved by a woman. I was betrothed to Uloma by her father who considered me a responsible man. He was sure that I was going to take good care of his daughter because of the traits I displayed during my stay at his house. I felt like I was marrying my step sister even though we were not in anyway related by blood. This was his death wish so I decided to honour the poor man. But one of the lessons I have learnt in life is never to marry a man or a woman in pity. I had compassion for Uloma and her family especially after the demise of their lovely father. So I married her but I regretted it quite too early. I wonder how Uloma, Lizzy and Mama coped with a man whose spirit provoked their demons. He was just one of a kind. A complete father and an epitome of love. I mean, he took me in without knowing a thing about me. Just assumptions and the fact that I was a human being as him.

Chapter 220: Shall We?
Now I had to tell Maggie the story of my life to clear the air. She kept asking too many questions and I couldn't deny her the right answers because she was now very dear to my heart. I mean, can one withhold the truth about the colour of one's skin from one's buttocks? That would be eating beans with the eyes. Maggie was pensive when we got home. It was as though she had just finished watching a Hollywood movie but this time, she didn't watch it on screen but on set! She was amazed to see me take them down, one by one, as if I had prepared for the attack. I didn't prepare for anything but that sharp thought that flashed through my mind was enough to sense something. I usually had such a feeling when something goes wrong. My demons were never asleep. They kept on knocking the door of my heart until it dawn on me that there was something wrong about the route we were taking. I told Maggie about the Dark Dragons something I never mentioned to Uloma. Paula knew about it of course, because

Chapter 219: Dogs Can Bark and Bite But Humans Kills
It is true that once a soldier, always a soldier. But I also think once a fool is always a fool or maybe... Once a culprit, is always a culprit! Malid was at it again. His usual display of foolishness. I called it "foolishness" because he thinks he can play smart and get me tied to his trap. Me? What a dream! Malid couldn't sleep well. Of course, he wouldn't have. He was dreaming of the impossible. So how possible was it for him to find sleep? Sweet sleep are for those who have laboured in truth. Not some evildoers like Malid! I sensed it from the smile, the handshake, the gestures, uneasiness, friendliness, useless talks... everything! I knew he was surely up to something. Can I ever forget Aunty Raina? Even if she belongs to the family of evil-doers with Malid as the head. She would say; "a rat does not run in daylight for nothing. He must have seen a cat or something." Malid is the rat here but instead of staying clear, the idiot remains adamant, like a forgotten morsel of pounded
