The spectators formed a small crowd around Nathan who was struggling to get up from the floor. The blood gushing from his forehead sparked panic among them.

Charlotte turned to her left and caught Greg laughing at Nathan’s misfortune. Greg was happy that Nathan got bruised.

“Serves him right!” He screamed and his group of mean boys broke into a wicked laugh.

Charlotte tightened her jaw. How unreasonable she thought.

Nathan staggered to his feet and palmed his forehead with his left hand. His hazy eyes caught a glimpse of the blood stains on his hand.

Some group of girls mumbled a sorry while the ones who would do anything to be on Greg’s side were as silent as a tomb.

Nathan was about to take a step further when he fell to the floor on his injured face and instantly lost consciousness.

Terror instantly broke out and it was at that period that the crowd noticed the stone, lying beside Nathan and it was soiled with blood. When Nathan lost his balance a while ago, he fell with his face o

    “So how did you fall?” Charles demanded with his palms wide open before Nathan. “You are not the careless type.” He added.Nathan sighed and cleared his throat loudly. “I didn’t fall guys. It was the guys.” He replied.Henry gave the bed a right slap. “I knew it. From the moment I saw those guys carrying you here, I knew that something was wronged.”Charles folded his arms across his chest. “What did they do to you this time?”Henry and Charles were aware that Nathan was being bullied by some of the guys from the basketball team.Nathan signed. “Greg was furious because he saw me sitting next to Charlotte at the court.” He began.Henry and Charles exchanged glances.“That Greg huh!”Nathan continued. “He was mad and then he went ahead to accuse me of trying to make out with her.”Charle’s eyes widened while Henry shook his head.“What the hell? Is he crazy?” Charles said.“Charlotte tried to explain things to him but Greg wouldn’t listen. He started ranting then I felt that it was bes

    Larry kept shifting his gaze from Nathan to the straight path ahead as he drove to Nathan’s apartment. Nathan noticed the gesture and concluded that the chauffeur was worried because Mike might scold him for being careless. It’s no one’s fault that he got hurt Nathan thought. He gave Larry a warm smile. “I’m fine Larry and besides, my head doesn’t hurt that much.”“Are you sure?”Nathan confirmed with a nod. “I’m agile so trust me, I’ll be fine.”Larry wheeled the car toward Nathan’s lawn where he spotted a familiar vehicle that was parked beside the lawn. It was Mike’s, Range Rover. Immediately after Larry pulled the car to a halt beside Mike’s car, Mike stepped out of the Range Rover and hurried toward them. He had been waiting for them for the past six minutes. Before Nathan could step out of the vehicle, Mike had already traced his way to him. “Oh my God, Young Master. How did this happen?” Mike lamented after noticing the tiny bandage slapped on the cut. Larry lowered his he

Immediately after the man picked up the call, the vice chancellor stood up and began to pace in his office, aimlessly.“Good evening Mr. Baker.

How may I help you?” replied Greg’s father.Again, Dr. Barnes cleared his throat loudly and stared at the watch on, his left wrist. “We have a slight problem, Mr. Baker. Gregory involved.”“Gregory?” Mr. Baker demanded in a tone that suggested that the boy wasn’t bound to be found erring.The vice chancellor knew that it was paramount he chooses his words carefully at the moment else the Baker family was going to lay off the support it was giving the school.“You know these kids and how they behave.” Dr. Barnes began. “These boys are hotheads and will always look for the slightest opportunities to flex their muscles.

    Mike walked into Nathan’s living room and met Nathan sprawled on the largest sofa. Henry and Charles sat opposite him while Larry stood by the door, he was going through his phone. Mike walked up to Nathan who flashed a quick smile at him. Mike could tell that Nathan was faking the warm gesture because he looked sore. “I need to take you somewhere.” Mike began. Nathan sat up while Henry and Charles exchanged confused glances. “Somewhere?” Nathan demanded with a quirked brow. Mike moved closer to him with an assuring smile. “I’ll take you to a place where a specialist will look at your injury. You deserve first-class treatment.”Nathan waved the offer down with his hand. “Oh come on Uncle Mike, you don’t have to get a specialist. Besides, the nurse gave me some painkillers.” He said and went for the bag of medication. Mike shook his head in disagreement. “I insist Nathan. You are coming with me.”Nathan sighed. Mike stared him straight in the face and said. “Trust me, Nathan. Yo

    Chapter 23Nathan stared at the portrait of his parents in amazement. They looked younger and his mother’s bright smile illuminated the portrait. He was glad that she never had cancer and he would never have to worry himself sick about her. Mike pointed to the first room on Nathan’s right. “That’s your room, Young Master.”With a bright smile, Nathan charged toward the room. Mike slipped his hand into his pocket and pulled out a bunch of keys. He passed them to Nathan who didn’t waste any time grabbing them from him. The door had an inscription in gold. The letter N was slapped on the door and Nathan concluded that it was the first letter of his name. “You’ll love it!” Mike said before Nathan could open the door. Nathan hurriedly opened the door and walked into his new room. “Why don’t you check out your new room and then freshen up? I’ll be waiting for you downstairs.” Said Mike who was standing by the door. Nathan began taking strides into the room. It was like a self-con apar

    CHAPTER 24Nathan placed his phone on the table and decided to meet Mike downstairs. He took a proper glance at the table and realized that it was carved out of the finest mensonia wood. Everything around him was made from the best. He smiled and left his room. In the living room downstairs, Mike was speaking to a man dressed in grey plain trousers and a checkered shirt. Nathan concluded that it was the specialist Mike had earlier talked about. Nathan walked up to them and cleared his throat loudly, announcing his presence. Mike and the guest turned to face him. The man in the checkered shirt gave a slight bow. Nathan wondered why the elderly man was bowing before him. When the man lifted his head, he said “I’m Dr. Brown and I’m here to check your injury.”Mike took over. He presented the doctor to Nathan. “I’m sure you must have heard of the famous Dr. Brown Caston. He’s the best in the city and is known for carrying out successful operations, a highly skilled surgeon with experi

    Chapter 25Nathan stared at the sumptuous meal on the table before him and darted his gaze to the file Mike was holding. Right now, dinner can wait. He was dying to find out the content of the file. Mike slipped his hand into his pocket and pulled out a black wallet. He pressed it on the file and passed them to Nathan. Nathan collected the items and dumped the wallet on the couch beside him. He quickly opened the file and began to fiddle with the pages of the document. The documents contained statements he couldn’t comprehend so he turned back to the first page and was struck by what his eyes saw on the first page. With a dropped jaw, he lifted his widened eyes to Mike. “What the hell?” he managed to ask after letting out a gasp. Mike smiled and crossed his legs. “I knew that you’ll be surprised the moment you find out the list of companies in Alcantara’s possession. The first page of the file Mike had given to him contained the list of companies they owned.Nathan was overwhe

    Chapter 26Nathan slowly opened his eyes and rolled down the Versace sheet covering him. He laid on his back and let out a clumsy yawn. He slept like a baby last night. His head still hurts but the pain wasn’t as bad as it was when he went to bed last night. He couldn’t wait for the cut to finally heal so that the headaches would cease. Nathan shut his eyes and opened them almost immediately. He quickly sat up and roved his eyes around his large luxurious room. He gasped as the realization of reality dawned on him. He went to bed thinking that the mansion, the file, and the cards Mike had presented to him last night were all an illusion but it wasn’t. Nathan rubbed his drowsy eyes with the edge of his palms and cast his gaze at the edge of his kingsize bed. The file was still there with the wallet containing the cards. He sighed and got out of bed. He was already feeling on top of the world. To confirm that the events that occurred yesterday weren’t a dream, Nathan rushed to t

    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
