“What the fuck?” Nathan gasped as more smoke took charge of his nostrils. He ended up puffing it out through his mouth as he kept trying to make sense of the situation before him.

It then dawned on Nathan that the odd group he had just stumbled upon was dressed in corporate outfits. Some of them were wearing the same uniform as the receptionist he had just met.

With the file in his left hand, Nathan slowly released the doorknob and went on clearing more fog with his right hand and soon, his vision was as clear as ever.

The receptionist!

It was at that point that he realized she had tricked him.

“Who the hell are you?” Someone barked at Nathan.

He began taking steps inside the room and soon, the wares began to manifest before his eyes. There was a carton of beer underneath the table harboring a dozen beer bottles. While some groups were drinking, others were smoking and some people were at a corner playing board games. There were about fifteen people in the room.

    Chapter 123With Sammy on the floor knocked out, the employees began to exchange glances. Sammy had never lost a fight. No one in that company would even want to engage in combat with him. Nathan stared at Sammy who was lying on the floor and turned to them. “Leave this room this minute.” Without asking any questions, they began to exit the room mumbling incoherent words. Nathan turned toward the door just when a lady was hurrying to leave. “Excuse me!” He called out to her. She turned toward him with trembling lips. If he could knock out the fearless and powerful Sammy with little effort, she concluded that he could knock her out too. “Where’s the chief Secretary’s office?” Nathan demanded. She stretched out a shaky hand toward the door. “It’s on the fourth floor. There’s an inscription on the wall.” She replied with a rippling voice and quickly hurried out.Nathan shook his head. Dory’s office wasn’t on the fifth floor. The receptionist on the first floor had tricked him. He

    Chapter 124Nathan realized that Dory was making a mockery of him with her resounding laughter. She stood up and folded her arms across her chest. She looked down at Nathan and arched a brow. “You want to work as the surveillance manager? Are you crazy?”He sighed and lifted his head. “Alex Alcantara said I could work anywhere I wanted. He said I’m at liberty to pick whichever station I desire.” Dory was pissed. “So you’re telling me that you want to work wherever you want because you’ve got some backing huh?”“I’m just saying that…“Shut the fuck up, you pathological liar.” Dory barked at Nathan. She pointed at the door. “I guess I’m done being nice to you now get the hell out of my office.”Nathan had a dropped jaw. “You are dumb or what? Get out of here!” She yelled at his face and gave the table a tight slap. Nathan didn’t move an inch and Dory couldn’t be more irked. “Well, since I tried to be civilized and you’re not cooperating, we might as well go the uncivilized way.”She

    Chapter 125Larry noticed the mischievous smile Nathan was bearing and he realized that the young man was up to something. Nathan pulled out his official phone and cleared his throat loudly. Larry folded his arms across his chest, watching Nathan in action.Nathan then dialed Dory’s phone number using the official phone that qualifies him as Alex Alcantara.“Hello, sir!” Dory responded immediately after she picked up the call. Nathan heard her voice quaking and he could tell that she might be terrified.“I just finished speaking to Nathan Smith, the candidate I sent to you.” He went straight to the point.He heard Dory gasp over the phone and his suspicions were confirmed. She was indeed terrified.“What was the meaning of that?” Nathan fired at Dory, acting like he was pissed.“I’m very sorry sir. I apologize for the incident that occurred this morning.” She said in a solemn tone that made Nathan wonder if she was actually the woman who had him thrown out a while ago.“Yoo can’t apol

    Sammy traced his way to Dory’s office after watching Nathan being thrown into the elevator. He barged into the office and met Dory pacing back and forth in frustration.He ran his hand through his hair and crashed on the chair facing her desk.“Did he create trouble here also?”Dory sighed and sat. “You’ve met him I guess.”“Yeah. He was the kid that walked into our meeting and tried to pick up a fight with me.” Sammy said.Dory’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets. “He tried to pick up a fight with you? Nathan Smith has some nerves.” She smirked.Meanwhile, Sammy was in Dory’s office to report the situation that occurred in the party room but after he saw the way the security officers were dragging Nathan away, he felt there was no need to speak to Dory about it since the insolent boy had been taken care of. Also, he wasn’t going to tell Dory how Nathan kicked his ass.****Larry wheeled the car to Phoenix junction and pulled it to a halt away from the road. Nathan grabbed his f

    “Hey!” Nathan heard Dory calling out to him.Cecil stopped and together with Nathan, they turned around to face Dory who was taking fast steps toward them.What now? Nathan thought as the angry woman continued walking up to him.“Can I talk to you for a minute?” She requested after reaching Nathan.She motioned to him with her head to join her at a corner away from Cecil. Nathan did.“I want you to listen to me very carefully.” She began. “The fact that you’ll be heading the surveillance department doesn’t make you the boss of me.”“Yes ma’am,” Nathan said, wondering why she needed to call him to order.“You are answerable to me Nathan Smith and I want you to know that you’re more of an intern in that unit.” She said.That was harsh Nathan thought. After heaving a sigh, he acknowledged her statement with a nod.“Yes, ma’am.”She wasn’t done yet. She pointed at him and said. “If you dare misbehave, I’ll have you kicked out of that office. It doesn’t matter whether you’ve got Alex Alcan

    Chapter 128Immediately after Elaine left the dilapidated office, Nathan placed a call to Larry. He told Larry to wait by the junction. He then traced his way out of the building and by the time he arrived at the junction, the Rolls Royce was already parked and Larry was standing beside it. “Well, at least you don’t look like someone that got kicked out the second time.” Larry teased and opened the door to the back seat for Nathan. Nathan hopped into the vehicle and threw his back against the car seat. “It was quite an eventful day.”Larry started the car and was soon hitting the road.He drove to Nathan’s rented apartment and when Nathan stepped out, he dismissed Larry. Nathan moved to his door and realized that it was wide open. Henry and Charles are the only people who had access to his spare key. Nathan walked into the room and saw Charles sprawled on the carpet, playing a video game. Nathan fell on the couch. “I’m so tired.”Charles paused the tie game and turned to him. “Lo

    Nathan tossed his case to the side and propelled the document toward him. “It’s your work schedule, sir, containing details of projects..” Rissa pointed out. Nathan arched a brow and grabbed the document with both hands. He went through several activity entries and was alerted by some of the entries. He lifted his head. “Why are there so many pending tasks here?”Rissa sighed and flipped her hair. Nathan pointed at the document. “It’s noted here that a partnership with Drone Electronics should be sealed by 11th May and this is the 27th”“We haven’t even met the supposed partners yet,” Rissa replied. Nathan was stunned. He went to the next pending item on the list. “It was also stated here that the manager’s office is yet to receive a grant for a renovation.” He shook his head. Elaine had briefed him on that already. He went on to identify two more pending projects from the list and all the responses Rissa gave him led back to the department’s lack of inclusion in the budget.Nat

    Chapter 130 Elaine stepped out of her office to check up on Rissa. Her station was right after Nathan’s door. “You’re busy already?”She was scribbling in a journal and reviewing some papers at the same time. “Mr. Smith asked me to sort out some figures.” She replied without taking her eyes off the journal. “I can help with that.” Elaine said and moved closer to Rissa. “You’re Such a life saver.”It took Nathan five minutes to sort the figures he needed while Rissa seemed to be taking forever. He needed her to be fast so that he could make a comparison and work on other things. A few minutes after Nathan left her station, Elaine grabbed the papers and gave a knock on Nathan’s door. He ushered her into the office. “I decided to help Rissa out.” Elaine said. Nathan commended with a nod. She walked up to his table and kept the journal she used to calculate the total figures required. Nathan brought out his sheet. According to his calculations, the sum of 9.7 million dollars

    Steve pulled the car to a halt in front of the airport building. Nathan turned to Avery with a smile. “You still want to do this?” He asked with his hand stretched out toward her. She took his hand into hers. “More than anything in the world. I’ve been running around for years and I never told you this but the main reason why I came back to Rockville was to make peace with your soul and then build my brand from scratch now that you’re here, I just want to spend as much time with you as possible, away from the whole chaos and drama. Just the two of us.” Nathan planted a kiss on her forehead. “Thank you so much, Avery.”She smiled. “I’m excited. It’s going to be my first time in Russia and I just can’t wait to explore the city with the love of my life.”Steve cleared his throat loudly. “Looks like I also need to find the love of my life and take her to Russia.”They laughed.Suddenly, Nathan’s phone began to ring.

    Morgan turned to his bodyguards who had been inside the lounge with him all this while. “Call for reinforcements. We’ve been tricked.”Derrick darted Morgan’s attention toward the chip on the table. “It’s a camouflage. It’s all programming shit.” He said and began to take off his jacket. Morgan was already sweating profusely. “I must find the real Alex. I need to kill that bastard today.”“Are you even serious?” Derrick cried out. “We are in a mess. That chip proved that this whole session was recorded.” He took his head into his hands. “I should have listened to Kelvin. This was a bad idea and now, we’re doomed. I’m not even sure if we’re the only ones in this building right now.”“I reserved the whole damn building and apart from the staff, there’s no damn customer here.” Morgan retorted and threw his gun on the floor. “My backup team will be here any moment from now and we’ll get the hell out of here. As for that recording chip, I don’t care about what’s in it or who had access t

    “Now that your girlfriend is safe and out of the picture, let’s talk business,” Morgan said to Nathan’s camouflage who was sitting before him and Derrick. Both men had no idea that the man sitting in front of them was a product of science programmed to function like Alexander Alcantara with a chip buried in his head. The camouflage was programmed to follow Cole’s instructions and ever since he walked into the longue, his words and actions were being directed by Coke from outside. “Why did you kill my parents?” The camouflage asked Morgan. Morgan broke into a laugh. “Seriously? Do you think I have time for this? Do you want me to respond to your stupid questions? You’re doing this to buy time right?”“Isn’t it obvious that you have me under your mercy? If you are going to take me out then at least I deserve the chance to know why you killed everyone in my family.” Nathan replied. “For my brother’s sake.” Morgan quickly replied. “You killed Corrigan, the only person in the world wh

    Nathan stretched his hand toward Avery and held her hand tightly. “You’ll be fine.” He mumbled to her lovingly. She nodded repeatedly.Derrick clenched his jaw and looked away while his bowels continued to heat up with rage. “You’re lying,” Morgan replied. “I gave you ten minutes to come here and according to my guards, you came alone so how did you get to rally troops and station them here?”Nathan chuckled. “I didn’t bring any troops from home. If you and your partner were smart enough, you’d know that this is the Grandiose Hotel and the Grandiose Hotel belongs to the Alcantaras.”Derrick and Morgan exchanged glances. “Shit!” Derrick cussed and rubbed his hair repeatedly. “It didn’t cross my mind.”Morgan frowned. “All I had to was give the manager a phone call before coming in. I told him that if four minutes pass by and Avery does not come walking through the door, he should tell the restaurant security squad to start firing.” Nathan said. Suddenly, Derrick snatched Morgan’s g

    The waitresses returned carrying food trays. They graciously placed it on the table. Morgan reached for the plate of steak and began to devour it like a hungry lion. Avery kept staring at her plate of pasta and meatballs. “Are you okay?” Derrick demanded. “Yeah.” She replied and looked up. “Don’t eat that.” Nathan’s voice came through the chip. She heaved a deep sigh because that was exactly what was on her mind. What if the food was poisoned? She kept thinking. Nathan continued speaking to her. “Leave your bag there and get up. Act normal and tell them you need to use the restroom then you head out.”“I think I need to pee,” Avery announced. Morgan stopped eating and dropped his plate immediately. “But you just got here?”“Yeah.” Derrick agreed with a nod. Avery faked a smile and quickly stood up. “I think I had a lot of water earlier and now, I need to pee. I’ll be back soon.” She said. She was about to turn around when Morgan spoke. “Excuse me?” Avery turned around lookin

    “You look as gorgeous as ever,” Nathan commented while Avery was tracing her way down the staircase. It was time to meet Derrick. He had already dropped the location and had called a while ago to say that he was on his way. Avery was wearing a short black floral dress with black sandals to match. Nathan had insisted that she apply makeup so that Derrick doesn’t sense her insecurity. “Are you sure about this?” Avery asked when she reached Nathan. Nathan took her face into his hands. “You’ll be fine. I promise you with my life.”She smiled. “If you say so.”“Remember, act normal and do as he says. Okay?”“Got it,” Avery replied and walked away. By the time she arrived at the restaurant, Derrick was already inside because he had texted her about three minutes ago that he had arrived. On her part, Avery had convinced him that their meeting was a secret because Nathan was not going to approve. She had taken a cab to get there. When Avery walked into the building, she was stunned by i

    “Welcome, bro. What can I offer you?” Nathan demanded the moment Kelvin walked into his living room. Kelvin marched in and didn’t even look at the couch Nathan was presenting to him. “I don’t think I can sit.”“You look restless. What’s the matter?”Kelvin sighed and faced Nathan. “It’s Derrick. He had been in my place for the past three days and he’s been looking like shit.”“Did you ask you to come here and convince Avery to go back to me?” Nathan asked. He then raised an index finger. “Listen, tell Derrick that if I see him close to my woman, I’ll kill him so he should leave her alone.”“That’s not why I’m here.” Kelvin sharply replied. “Last night, he went on a rampage and drank several bottles of my wine and when I walked into him in my living room, he was half conscious and he said some things.”Nathan abruptly stood up. “What did he say?”“You and I both know that it’ll be difficult for a man like Derrick to change.” Said Kelvin. “It’s not like I’m condemning him.” He quickly

    “He’s coming out shortly,” Daniel reported and sat with the rest of the team. That morning, Morgan’s allies stormed his mansion to talk about the tragic events that were unfolding. It was no news that his biggest warehouse was burnt to ashes. That evening, another one was looted and by midnight, Morgan got information that his security guards were attacked on their way back from the club and 6 perished while two were in a coma. Morgan made his way down the staircase, carrying the weight of his problems. However, he was sober and didn’t display any angry reaction. Perhaps, he was too beaten by the incidents that he had lost his will to react. His Allies looked upon him as he made his way toward them. The group consisted of his friends and partners who had helped him execute shady deals in the past. After he sat, Daniel stood up and cleared his throat loudly. “There is no denying that we all know who is behind the constant attacks. Without mincing words, I’d like to inform you all t

    It was Saturday morning and during the weekends, Morgan plays tennis with Daniel, his assistant. Daniel is no fan of table tennis and barely knows how to hold the bat but every Saturday and Sunday morning, he shows up dressed in shorts with his gears just to impress Morgan. Also, Morgan knew that his assistant was bad in the sport so it gave him an edge to defeat him completely all the time. This morning, Daniel was already seated by the court in Morgan’s house and was waiting for his boss to show up. Morgan had just stepped out of his room and was on his way toward the living room before heading out to your court when his phone began to ring. He frowned and didn’t pick up the call. Even though he was a workaholic, he had made it clear to his workers that none of them would disturb him with work matters except if it was an emergency. The call persisted and the warning bells in Morgan’s head began to ring. What if this particular call was a case of emergency?The call was coming fr
