Bodyguards dressed kitted in black with a pistol on their waist stood at both sides of the entrance. Their hugeness and the fierceness of their as they darted their eyes around for any suspicious movement could ignite fear in anyone.Marcus in his shabby and withered dressing stepped down from a taxi with Lawyer Badmus and the other men.

I’ll deal with it.” He grabbed his car key from the table and began to walk out hurriedly.“Where are you going dad?” Mento because inquisitive again.His father turned, the car key jingling in his hand. “I need to take care of something.

Sir. Hex was shocked to the marrow. Han was literally chasing him out of his office for Marcus.Seeing the shock on his face, Marcus smiled and relaxed, leaning in back more comfortably on the chair.“Shall we proceed with the rectification manager?” Marcus tried to dilute the tension in the air, his patience hanging on a thread.The manager averted his glaring gaze from Sir. Hex. He tugged on his suit before taking his seat again. His frowning expression faltered, replaced with a warm smile when he diverted his look back to Marcus.“So I'll just make a call now and the barrier will be lifted from your account. Also as a Vip customer. We'll offer you our exclusive and premium services.” The manager continued enthusiastically with professional gestures, the smile on his face Unwavering and hospitable which makes Sir.

Seeing the manager of Zenith escorting Marcus out of the bank, Lawyer Badmus gasped. Even the two men standing with him were puzzled, wondering what stunt Marcus pulled inside.“Thank Mr. Han.” Marcus collected the briefcase from him.“It’s my pleasure Mr. Hayes. Thanks for trusting us with your fund. Have a safe journey home.” With that, the manager left.Marcus turned to see the trio staring at him, their mouths wide open as if they just saw the inexplicable. Of course, how could they explain it– seeing Almighty Han Caufield carrying poor Marcus's briefcase. No one would want to believe them if they actually tell what they have seen!“Here is the money. Let’s sign the documents and close the deal.” Marcus said impatiently.“In cash!?!!” Lawyer Badmus gasped, his eyes bulging in shock.“Yes, any problems?” Marcus raised his brow.“Oh yes..I mean no!” The lawyer quickly collected the money and opened the briefcase case.He froze! His hand convulsed on the briefcase. He was speechlessl

Marcus was amazed by the luxurious set-up of the boutique. Racks, each beside another, displaying beautiful clothes catches the attention of customers, making it difficult to make a selection from the Apparel collection. A female attendant swung towards Marcus with a welcoming smile, her teeth sparkling just like the crisp white shirt she had on. She offered a professional smile, unfazed by Marcus's poor appearance which anyone could have easily mocked.“Good day sir. My name is Sarah. Welcome to Flashy boutique. As you can see, everything is flashy. What would you like to purchase sir?" Marcus smiled slightly, impressed by her humorous manner of approach. “I'd like to get the latest designer clothes for females...and collections of latest baby wear." Marcus said, looking around the boutique. Her smile widened. “I hope the baby is bouncing sir. Your wife must be so lucky to have a man with a high taste for flashy things. This way sir." She teased and led the way. Marcus
THE UNSTOPPABLE BOSS Chapter 24: Daughter!?
“I'm sorry..I'm sorry." Marcus squatted and quickly helped the woman pack her falling stuff into the bag. Unknown to him, the woman had secretly slipped her phone into his pocket. “Thanks." She smiled at him factitiously before she walked to a distance in the boutique and suddenly halted as if she recalled something. She started to search her pocket for her phone– the same phone she intentionally put in Marcus pocket. She zipped open her bag again, dusting out everything in it on the floor. “Thief!!! Someone had stolen my phone!!!" She screamed on top of her voice. Her voice attracted workers and customers to her. “What is the issue?" Sarah asked the woman. She began to wail, hitting her hand on her body dramatically in clamour “Someone took my phone..That phone cost a fortune!!" She dramatized it. Sarah stared at her, her brow raised in doubt. “You must be mistaken ma. Everyone here can afford a phone. You must have left it at home while coming" She said and everyone nodde

“Daughter!?!" Marcus who was vividly stunned with an astonished expression flashing in his eye.He looked at Sarah as if she just uttered an atrocious word. “What do you mean daughter?" His gaze bore into her eyes. “There she is, your daughter.” Sarah held the little girl and gently made her stand in her front. She wore a red dress, on which her hair which was packed in a ponytail fell upon. In her ear is a small sparkling diamond earring which accentuated her beauty. Her eyes sparkled, though still clouded with tears as she looked up at Marcus, smiling sheepishly. Before Marcus could say a word, the girl ran to him and hugged him on his leg. Marcus was shocked. His mouth quivered, unable to utter any words. His tongue totally dried up! He couldn't understand what was going on but the girl looked very familiar! It was the same girl in the picture on the phone he found in his pocket at the seashore!! Everyone watched the drama between the little girl and her acclaime
THE UNSTOPPABLE BOSS Chapter 26: Going home.
Will you take me home dad?" Rose's expression was priceless- her eyes softened, flashing a babyish expression. Marcus's heart melted, seeing the irresistible expression on her face. He knew she would never let him off if he refused to follow her. Secondly, that is the only way he would have to get the answers he needed –why did he have the face of a strange man. Now that he has coincidentally met his daughter, he hopes that eventually, his confusion will be settled when he follows her. “Mum can't wait to see you. She cries all night waiting for you to show up at the doorstep." Rose said, clutching the teddy tightly. “Mum?" His eyes widened. “You have a mum?" He repeated. Rose nodded happily. “She's your wife. She'll be very happy to see you." She smiled. Marcus gulped hard, batting his eyelashes. “Alrigh..t. I'll take you home." His voice came shakily, worries itching all over it. What would he say if he eventually met her mother who is also his acclaimed wife. Oh no

Nurses push a wheel bed along the passage of a hospital. Their running footsteps on the floor were collective, slapping against the marble floor of the Hospital. On the wheel bed is Laurent with blood all over his body while part of his body had suffered a serious burn. His eyes were shut– he looks dead.“To ward 10! Hurry!!" A doctor matched behind the nurses and Laurent was quickly whisked into Ward 10.No one knows if he's alive or dead. He was laid on a bed in the ward and quickly the doctor cut his cloth loose with a scissor. Medical devices and tubes were passed into his body to support his life. Beside the bed is a heart beat monitor which displays a continuous zigzag line.“He's still alive! We'll commence treatment now!?" The doctor's voice cuts through the minimum air in the emergency ward and nurses swing into action, preparing to commence treatment on Laurent.The news about the accident had circulated far and wide.

Chapter 57: Catastrophe happened after leaving the court.
Jaxon was cuffed and like a hardened criminal, he was pushed into the police vehicle which drove away immediately. Flashes of camera didn't stop flickering on him till he was totally out of sight.Journalists clustered around Laurent as he made his way out of the courtroom. They stretched microphones and struggled to hear from him as if he is a president of a nation.“How do you feel about winning the case Mr. Laurent?!" A male journalist raised his voice to his hearing but he didn't stop. He simply approached his car yet they buzz around him like bee on honey.“Where did you get the confidence from? You defended yourself without a lawyer and won!" A female journalist struggled to get to him but they pushed her and she fell.Laurent stopped and which also made the crowd to halt too but their microphones never lowered from the air, still willing to hear from him. The noises reduced drastically into murmuring.Laurent walked to the lady who fell and stretched his hand. He smiled at her

Silence fell over the courtroom momentarily after Laurent asserted that he came to defend himself. His confidence and bold stance got everyone stunned even Jaxon had to adjust on the his seat, a hint of nervousness in his demeanor.He had bribed both his lawyer and the judge- his way of making sure Laurent is judged guilty and end the rest of his life in prison.Seeing the collective shocks on the people's faces, Marcus laughed slightly.“Let's proceed." He broke the silence simply.The fat judge who was also in Shock cleared her throat and said.“Mr. Laurent. Are you sure about this? The Court can grant you few minutes to arrange fo r a lawyer." She said even when she knew Laurent is going to lose the case because she must judge him guilty no matter what.“You heard me well." Laurent simply added and glance at his wrist watch, seemingly impatient.“What a rude fellow. You're going to step out of here into prison. I bet you." The judge swore between gritted teeth. She hit the gavel ag
Chapter 55: Day of judgement.
Marcus got to the location of the address. It was under a bridge at the fringe of the city. It was dark and weary. No human could be at such a place especially at that time. Marcus waited in the car, tapping his fingers gently and nervously on the steering wheel.He could hear the sound of running water down the old bridge which added to the tension in the atmosphere.Just then, he sighted the headlight of a car coming from a distance. It reflected on the windscreen on his car. He shifted on his seat and his heart beat increased.The headlight shone more brightly on his face as the car stopped in the centre of the road. The front door open a man stepped out of the car. His huge shadow reflected on the ground by the headlight of the car which he left on as he approached Marcus.Marcus composed himself and took a deep breathe. “Let's do this." He muttered and stepped out of the car.As the man got close to him, he fell to his knee, his head tilted down. “My lord! Welcome back." He sai
Chapter 54: What he discovered in the wardrobe.
Inside of the golden wardrobe were documents, all white papers, each seated on another one, filling the wardrobe to the top. Marcus' eyes scan the documents, wondering what contents it holds.The silence that emerged in the room was deafening. The tickling seconds hand of a wall clock would definitely be heard loudly in the silence but unfortunately there was none but Marcus' heart took the function of a wall clock. He could hear it beating in his ear.He gulped hard and reached out to one of the documents. Carefully, he pulled it out and the document rested on his palm. On the front page is the name; Laurent Augusto boldly written on it.Definitely, Lauren had set up the place.The tip of his Thumb and index finger gripped the edge of the paper and he flipped it open. A soft rattling sound came from it as a new page was revealed.His eyes scanned the words on the document carefully. As it moved across it, his eyes widened more and more, a mixture of surprise and shock flashed in his
Chapter 53; The golden wardrobe.
“I’m giving you nothing, Abigail!!” Laurent blurted, his tone final as he glared at Abigail who stepped forward to him with a fierce gaze too.She snorted, a subtle deadly crossing her lips. “You must be kidding Laurent! This was our deal and a deal is a promise!” She declared, tucking a stand of her hair backward.Silence took over for some seconds which enabled both to hear the distant cacophony of Horn from the distant city. “The Laurent you knew is dead and gone!” Marcus broke the silence, his voice simmering with rage. “The new me will not grant what you want! Go in and pack your things and leave. Now!!” Laurent pointed his finger in the direction of the door, his expression as hard as a stone.Abigail was fully taken aback. She couldn't comprehend what he meant by the statement; ‘the Laurent you knew is dead is gone.’ Frankly, the former Laurent had developed feelings for her some steps into the marriage contract but Abigail is just a greedy chick whose intention is to have h
Chapter 52: Shocking discoveries.
In an empty warehouse. The silence in the vicinity was deafening. The squeaking of rats playing around in the dim space was the only sound heard in the dead silence.“Who sent you to burn the building?” Laurent's voice cut through the silence.He stood before the man who had been tied on both legs and hand to a wooden chair.“I don't know what you're talking about? Just kill me!” The man replied arrogantly.Laurent Chuckled. “You don't know? Huh?” He stepped closer to him and pointed a pistol to his head.“Are you going to speak now or not?” His finger rested on the trigger.The man laughed softly and spoke with a taunting voice. “Do you think I'm afraid of guns?” He Chuckled.“You will be afraid of where you'll find yourself after I pull the trigger because you're going to land in hell!” Laurent said, his voice filled with horror.“Another empty threat.” The man laughed out loudly, taking his statement as an empty threat.“Do you think I'm joking around here!”Provoked, Laurent pulle
Chapter 51: Fight in the club.
Abigail on the other gently laid Rose on the bed and stepped away from the bed. She looked at the wall clock; 12: 30am. It was very early in the morning and the sky was still as dark as coal.Regardless of the argument she had with Laurent earlier, she was desperate to know where he left without informing her.“Why is Laurent not home by this time?” She muttered, feeling restless and worried about her husband's whereabouts. She took her phone from the nightstand seated close to the bed and dialed his number.The phone rang but no one picked. Tension and uneasiness mounted in her heart.Just as her finger hovered on the screen to dial his number again, a message appeared on it.Her Heart skipped a beat thinking it was from Laurent but the messages were sent by an unfamiliar number.Hesitantly, she clicked on the message and viewed it. Her heart ruptured and her body trembled visibly as she fixed her gaze on the screen, staring in shock.On the screen is the picture of Laurent with the
Chapter 50: At the club.
Laurent was detained and it was Abigail who came to the police station to bail him before he'ld appear in court next week to either be proven guilty or innocent.Abigail boiled with anger as she sat on the driver's side of the car.“You really did this!!? I don't trust you anymore since you returned from the war!! The Laurent I knew would never do something of this sort!!” She ranted with a high voice.Laurent exhaled, his voice calm and convincing. “Abigail. You need to trust me that I never did this’ I never burn the building. They framed me for it!!” He raised his voice slightly at the end to show his seriousness.“Framed?” Abigail snorted. “Do you think I'm a kid, Laurent? They framed you and forged the evidence too?! That's lame!” She said and ignited the engine.Laurent heaved heavily as if to offload the burden of thoughts in his mind. He leaned backward on the seat and his mind spiralled with thoughts.“I’m just going to make her see that I didn't do it.” He concluded in his t
