Nathan and his friends stepped out of the house to meet Larry who was waiting for them outside. He was with the Rolls Royce.Charles was holding a bag containing some gym supplies. Nathan had told them a lot about Ben’s gym and how versatile Ben was at training so they decided to hit the place that evening.They stepped into the vehicle and Larry drove away.After driving for about five minutes, Larry pulled the car to a halt. The gym was down the street, just a few miles away from Nathan’s home.They stepped out while Larry remained in the vehicle.Nathan was the last to step out of the vehicle and when he looked at the spot Ben’s gym once stood, he was shocked at the spectacle before him.It was the same building but Nathan noticed that the gym was repainted and the name tag was changed. There used to be a bold inscription at the signpost with the caption BEN’S GYM. Now, the name was replaced with WILLIES.“Is that the gym?” Charles pointed at the signpost.Nathan couldn’t give a re
Nathan slammed the car door and charged toward Ben who was about to drop another luggage bag inside the van. Ben turned around and saw Nathan walking toward him. Nathan reached his spot and folded his arms across his chest. Ben sighed and concluded that the boy must have learned about his fate. He rubbed his palms against each other and rested his back against the car. “Hey!”“Good evening Ben,” Nathan replied and darted his gaze to the van. “You are leaving?”Ben sighed. The thought of leaving Rockville City was driving him insane but that was the only option he had. He exhaled and looked at Nathan. “I’m sorry that you guys can no longer make use of the gym. Listen, Nathan, this hurts me more than anything but…” he shook his head. “I don’t even know where to begin from.”“How about we start with the men who threw you out of your gym?”Ben arched a brow. Nathan lowered his hands to his hips. “Curtis told me everything.” “Those men are bad guys Nathan. Right now, I need to do wha
Nathan stepped out of the lecture theatre amidst the crowd of students. He saw Charlotte by the door going through her phone and he quickly turned away.He sighed in relief. Thank Goodness she didn’t see him else she was going to throw questions at him, taking him back to her rescue mission at the Millonares party. Nathan was also not in the mood for any drama with Greg so it’s best away from Charlotte.Charles and Henry had gone to attend a lecture for their elective course but as for Nathan, it meant free time. He quickly left the hall premises so Charlotte wouldn’t spot him. After getting away from the spot, Nathan decided to stride down to the pavilion for some time out before his friends show up.On his way to the pavilion, Nathan noticed Avery and Kelvin engaged in a heated argument. They were standing under the lemon tree opposite the pavilion. He decided to go closer to them to have an insight into the conversation.Avery’s hands were up. Kelvin was facing her and she was addr
The Vice chancellor took the lead while Avery followed. When she decided to report Kelvin to the VC, she thought he was going to assign the dean or one of the school disciplinary committee members to handle the situation. Now, he was on his way to the school clinic, thus violating her expectation. They got to the school clinic just when Nathan was getting discharged. His bruise was treated. The bleeding was stopped and it wasn't severe so the nurse felt there was no point placing a bandage on it. She had treated the injury and was handing over an analgesic to Nathan when the VC stormed in. "Damn!" Nurse Stacy muttered under her breath at the sight of the Vice chancellor.Nathan turned around and saw the Vice chancellor walking up to him alongside Avery. He sighed knowing that it was all Avery's doing. "Good morning sir!" "Morning, Stacy." The VC replied and motioned to Stacy with his head to excuse them. She nodded in understanding and left. Nathan stood up, trying to mask his a
Nathan walked into his apartment and slumped on the sofa. Thank goodness, the bruise he got from the fall was a mild one. Kelvin had to be a pain in the ass.He shut his eyes and the image of Ben's face fluttered in his mind. It immediately dawned on him that he had made a commitment to himself. He had vowed to get Justice for Ben by helping him to reclaim his property.Nathan quickly went for his phone and placed a call to Mike."Young Master!" Mike responded. They exchanged a few pleasantries. Nathan didn't tell Mike about the incident with Kelvin at school. He concluded that Mike was probably going to over react when he learns about it. "I want to buy a property. A building." Nathan told Mike. There was silence from Mike's end and Nathan couldn't help but imagine the stunned expression on the man's face. Why would he need a new property when there were dozens in his name. "Why do you need a building?" Mike demanded. Nathan sighed and decided to come clean with Mike. "Do you re
“We will get back to you.” Fredrick assured Daniel and his colleague with a warm smile.They left. He walked up to William with a clenched jaw. “What are you up to?”Will turned to his brother after heaving a sigh. “I saw a place, wanted it and decided to have it because I felt that it was going to be an ideal boxing house.”“Well, maybe, you should have thought about the repercussions since you were so dumb not to get the original property papers.”Will ran his hands through his blonde hair. “Now that the mistake has already been done, maybe you can help me keep the place.”“There’s a resolution. The only way you can keep this place is by participating in the bidding they proposed. I can help you with that. It’s not a big place anyway so less than a million will suffice.” Fredrick replied.William was all smiles. “Thank you so much brother,”“Think before you leap, Will.” Fredrick said and left the boxing house.****“Hello!” Ben’s voice came on after he responded to the call.Nath
“They are here sir.” One of the guards announced.William heaved a deep sigh and turned to his brother. “We’ve got this. He then turned to the guard who brought the news. “Bring the in.”It was the day of the bid.The bid was scheduled for that morning, the next day after Daniel showed up at the boxing house. That night, Will got a text that some investors were ready so they’ll be dropping by at the boxing house the next day by 10 am where the bid was scheduled to take place. William immediately called his brother to inform him about the development.At 9: 45 am, The Tysons were already seated.The door to the boxing house was opened by the guards. Two men, dressed in Italian suits walked in, they stopped at the reception where the Tysons were.They were the investors. They exchanged a few pleasantries with Fredrick and occupied the twin couch at the reception. Will didn’t utter a word to them. They were the men who wanted to take the gym away from him after allFredrick was about to
CHAPTER 119Immediately after they stepped out, Ben and the investors shook hands, bearing congratulatory smiles.“We need to get out of here.” Ben said and motioned to them to hop into the vehicle. They got into the car they came with. Ben joined them in the vehicle and the driver sped off.Meanwhile, Nathan and Mike had been waiting for the group’s arrival. They had agreed to meet at a private lounge. About ten minutes after Ben and the investors left the bidding venue, they arrived the meeting point. The men alighted from the vehicle and hurried into the private lounge.Nathan was seated right next to Mike. He was wearing one of his luxurious suits and had covered his nose down to his jaw with a mask. At this moment, he was Alex Alcantara.Mike had informed the investor’s that the entire bid was sponsored by Alcantaras. He never mentioned that they’ll be meeting the Alcantara heir. Seeing Alex, seated right beside Mike was already giving them goose bumps.Ben pretended to be ignora
