Chapter 52

Charles repeated. “Are you affiliated with the Alcantaras?”

Henry shook his head wondering why Charles was drawing such inferences.

“Why don’t we get inside the house first so that you guys can rest,” Nathan replied, sweeping Charles’s analogy under the carpet.

The excited Henry took the lead. He traced his way inside while Nathan and Charles went after him two of the guards went to the Rolls Royce and collected the bags Henry and Charles came with.

The boys stepped into the house and were swooned.

Henry turned in awe. “What the hell? You can’t possibly own this place, Nathan. Is this really yours?”

He moved to the smart HD television occupying a large chunk of the wall. “This is the largest television I’ve ever seen. How many inches is that?”

Nathan grinned and showed them the bar stand. Charles strode to the bar stand. It was stuffed with the most expensive wines. He turned to Nathan. “These drinks here must cost a fortune!”

Nathan nodded and folded his arms across h

    Chapter 53Charles jumped out of the stool and rushed to the table. Together with Henry, they stood before Nathan with astonishing eyes. He presented the cards to them. “These are my cards.”“All of it?”Nathan confirmed with repeated nods. “Yes!”Charles went for the plain gold card. “How does it work? Like credit cards?”Nathan agreed with a nod. “They look different but work like the conventional credit cards.”The boys haven’t seen such cards before. Henry picked one of the cards and began to flip it. “Jeez Nathan. This is cool. I never knew you had three cards.” Said, Henry. He thought the only card Nathan had was the one he pulled out in the mall. Charles and Henry exchanged the cards and continued staring at them intensely. “This is pure Gold.”“This one even has your family logo on it.” Henry hinted while caressing the card with the letter A tag. Nathan pointed at the gold card Charles was holding. “I got this the day after my birthday.”"I went to the bank to confirm th

    They broke away from the embrace, their faces beaming with excitement. “There’s so much to see around here guys. I can’t wait to give you guys a tour of this place.” Said, Nathan. “This house looks like a museum Nathan and I’m sure there’s more to it,” Henry replied and roved his eyes around. “Well, it speaks for itself. The house speaks of wealth and luxury.” Charles agreed with Nathan, his eyes fixated on the medusa painting on the wall. “Why don’t we go upstairs so that I can show you guys your rooms.”Nathan took the lead. He aimed for the staircase while the boys went after him. He led them up to the hallway upstairs. The boys stood there for a while and looked down at the living room from their spots. “It’s such a great view over here.”“Yes. My room is by the right.” Nathan said. “Wow!”“This way!”He led them to the enclosed doors by his left. They noticed other shut doors on their left as well as their right. “How many rooms do you have here? It looks more like an hot

    Chapter 55Nathan opened his eyes after his alarm clock gave the signal. He wiped his drowsy eyes with the edge of his palms and sat up with a sigh. It was a few minutes past 7 am. He was certain that Charles and Henry were still in bed because, after dinner last night, the guys stayed up till dawn, chatting and sharing a glass of wine on the balcony. Nathan strode to the bathroom. After taking a shower, he sat by the edge of his bed and pulled out a file from one of his table cabinets. It was the file Mike had handed over to him a few days ago. He began going through the document containing the list of companies his family owned. Nathan was checking out the lists when his attention was drawn to the Phoenix Media House, which was the head of all other companies.He was acquainted with that name. He looked away, trying to figure it out when it came to him. Charles had mentioned it several times. Nathan went through the statement attached to the company where the staff, associates,

    “Wassup bro!” Nathan waved at Henry the moment he walked into the room. Henry joined them on the bed and sat next to Charles. “I could hear your laughter from miles away. So tell me. What’s the juicy news because you guys seem excited.”“How was your night?” Nathan asked, ignoring Henry’s assertion. Henry waved his hand down. “Forget about that Nathan. You guys should tell me what you were discussing behind my back.”“Answer the damn question.” Charles insisted. “Fine!” Henry agreed with a sigh. “I had a good night. Now tell me what’s cracking you guys up.”Nathan smiled. Charles cleared his throat. “Nathan is going to be a member of the millionaires club.”“Woah!” Henry was already beaming with excitement. “He’ll also be attending the millionaire’s party scheduled for this weekend,” Charles revealed. Henry shook his head with a smile. “You have no idea how excited I am right now.” He turned to Nathan. “That event is going to be grand. I can feel it already.”“Yeah!” Charles a

    “Wow!”“How comes we didn’t see this place last night?” Charles spat and began taking steps like a controlled robot toward the Bugatti. Nathan rumbled in laughter. Henry, who had a thing for Lamborghini didn’t take his eyes off the vehicle before him. He turned to Nathan with stars in his eyes. “That’s a fucking Lamborghini!”“I know right,” Nathan replied after a chuckle. Henry rushed to the Lamborghini and couldn’t wait to lay his hands on it. He went around the car with his pupils dilating and the corners of his mouth stretching with excitement. Charles, who was fascinated with the Bugatti turned to Nathan. “Is this the new Bugatti Bolide?”Nathan confirmed with a nod. “That’s it.”Charles gasped and folded his arms across his chest. “This is the latest vehicle and I heard that only a handful was made. Damn!”Nathan gave repeated nods and moved closer to him. “Only three Bugatti Bolides were shipped to Rockville city.”Charles had a dropped jaw. Nathan continued. “My dad got

    Chapter 58The boys dispersed to their rooms and assembled downstairs about an hour later. “All set?” Nathan demanded after his feet landed on the last staircase. “Ready as hell!” Henry replied with a wide grin. Charles gave him a soft pat on the back. “He’s so excited about driving us. He was the first to get ready.”Nathan smiled and slipped his hand into his pocket. He pulled out the key to the Lamborghini and handed it over to Henry. “There you go Mr. Chaffeur!”Henry snatched the keys from Nathan like it was some treasure. He dashed out. The boys shook their heads and hurried after him. When Nathan and Charles got to the garage, Henry was already settled in the driver’s seat. “Hurry up guys. Stop walking like slugs. We need to go shopping.”They chuckled and settled on the back seat. “Are you guys ready?” Henry asked, his face screaming excitement. The boys slipped their seat belts around them while Henry adjusted the front mirror. “I think we are all set,” Nathan said.

    Chapter 59The boys bore disappointing looks. Charles was the most disappointed and his countenance was more evident among the boys. Just when he thought he was going to look smart in that Brioni, the manager was about to end his dream of owning a designer suit. Nathan and his friends walked up to the manager. Before Nathan could speak, the manager spoke. “I’m sorry guys. You can’t have these suits.” Reiterated to the manager. “But they were on display.” Nathan countered. As far as he was concerned, outfits that were on display were not purchased ones so they had the right to own them.The manager cleared his throat loudly. “Listen! The suits are still on display because the buyer hasn’t claimed them yet. He’s not currently available but will return to pick them up.” He explained. Nathan sighed and pouted his lips in annoyance. “So you’re saying the buyer bought all our three suits?”The manager pointed at the Brioni. “Not just the ones in your possession. All five of them.”Hen

    Chapter 60From the moment Nathan humiliated him at the school mall by turning the tables against him, Kelvin had vowed to make Nathan’s life miserable so when he saw him and his friends entering Hose Mario, he decided to exert one of his revenge plans. Nathan folded his arms across his chest while Kelvin was taking bold steps toward them. Kelvin put on a straight face and looked Nathan straight in the face. “Why are you guys looking gloomy like some kids that lost their chocolates?”Charles and Henry clenched their jaws. After their expectations were violated in that store by the manager, Kelvin was the last person they expected to cross paths with. Several thoughts began to waver in Nathan’s mind. What the hell was Kelvin doing at Hose Mario at such an hour? It could be a coincidence that he showed up when they arrived but the way he slipped out of that corner with that mocking dry laugh was what Nathan found suspicious. Kelvin walked closer to Nathan and stood before him with h

    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
