This wasn't at all intended to be a way of testing his loyalty but it worked out well for that. And he could now say that Jake was someone he could trust.Leo Casually smiled again as he stared at Jake "Okay then, you should as well follow me if you wish to"He had added. Both of them packed their bags and stuff and later on Walked out of the Company together.Eyes were already on them while they left, but They didn't seem bothered while leaving with their stuff.As they got outside, The reporters who seemed to have been waiting began clustering around them while asking endless questions.But Leo was with some of his security who pushed these reporters aside. Two of his security men had helped make some way for him to pass through. And then Leo and Jake got into their car and Jake drove them away.With Jake on the wheels, Leo causally sat behind while scrolling through his phone..he was reading through posts that had already begun circulating.The incident that had just happened a wh
Jake had his eyes on the road as they drove ahead. For a while he didn't say anything or even think of replying back to Leo's question. but he guessed he had to anyway."If you don't wish to tell me, then I don't think it's necessary to ask you. I won't, so when you're ready to tell me or someone, you will naturally do so " He expressed.Leo stared at the driver ahead of him and smiled" Hey, has anyone ever told you that you're an amazing friend?"Jake returned the smile as well "I guess this should be the first time I'm hearing it" he stated."Then you should know that. You're really a good friend" Leo complimented as Jake smiled.****They had quietly driven off as they soon arrived at their destination. Grandpa Ellison's Mansion.Both of them got down while Jake waited outside the Mansion. Leo on the other hand walked into the Mansion to meet his Grandpa.On meeting him,.both of them sat down opposite each other to have a chat in the sitting room.His Grandfather questioned him and
The meeting the next day at the L.E company Enterprise wasn't a fun sight at all.Mr Lun was the one holding the meeting while the other board members sat there looking at him. He simply wasn't the type to work with, he was the type whom people always got annoyed working with.And it didn't seem like anyone liked working with him at all."And what's this? Didn't I tell you all to get me meeting suggestions for the upcoming project before today? Why hasn't anyone submitted Anything?" He questioned them.For a while, no one Said anything but kept looking at each other. Mr Lun was pissed off as he questioned them more."Am I a joke to you? I literally gave you something to do and submit to me and no one did anything? Do you all want to lose your job today or something?"some hesitated "Well... about that... " One of them decided to do the talking " Well we couldn't have possibly gotten it done with. it's somewhat impossible because what you requested from us usually takes like a year and
The board members were stunned. Staring at themselves, they didn't expect something like this happening and it resulted in something like that!It had all come like a surprise and their expressions said it all. Staring at each other, they looked at Mr Lun again "Sir...You got it all wrong this is..."Someone tried explaining but it didn't seem as though Mr Lun wanted to listen to any of that. "you should know that I don't wish to listen to any of your excuses. So you all should leave here before I lose my patience"He Said.It didn't seem as though all of them wanted to plead to him. Some angrily got up and zoomed off. While some stayed behind seeing if they could at least beg for their stay there.But Mr Lun didn't seem like one who was going to give anyone a second chance " I can't have such people working with me. So don't waste your time and leave unless I take another drastic measure" He threatened them.And just like that, Mr Lun had fired the whole of the board members who had
"I asked...how may I be of help to you..and what the hell are you two doing here?" Katy still questioned them."Look at her face..I can't believe you said have the guts to act all cold and Proud When you have nothing now." Beth started with a smirk."Your so-called husband is now a pathetic loser" Mr Lun added, walking up to Katy "He has lost everything to me now as you must have known. So he's basically... Useless. And to think that he's just the stand in...I wonder how the real CEO who no one has ever seen must be feeling "he said, staring into the cold and furious face of Katy. "Oh, so he's not even the real CEO" Beth said, staring at Katy"Do you mean to say that your husband is just a stand in of the company? He isn't the real deal? Then...who is the real CEO? Where is he?"Katy Stared at her without even bothering to say a thing. "I bet she won't answer so don't bother asking her about it. I doubt she even knows anything about it" Mr Lun added.Beth looked around the company"
Leo had made his trip to France, Paris. And there he had spent over a week there. He was basically having a break as he claimed. Specifically resting while coming up with a perfect counterattack to get back at Mr Lun and what he had done to him.Now he was more than certain that he wasn't going to let Mr Lun off. Rather he was going to come up with a perfect plan that would get back at Mr Lun and destroy him once and for all.That was his determinationBasically, His plan was to use his power and authority against him. Leo had initially planned on using his Power, connections and money to pull him down. But he guessed he wasn't going to do that anymore because his plan suddenly changed after he saw something...*****On a typical Sunday, Leo had gone to the nearest catholic church. He obviously wasn't gonna miss it no matter how busy he was.He had recalled spending time that morning looking for the nearest catholic church that he'd attend. And he found one eventually.After he had r
"I want you to help me investigate more into this and into their Company. look for the possible best clue and stuff you can get as to why they weren't the ones who owned both products and all that...I don't know how to explain it but you should know what I'm talking about, right?""Ok, don't worry.. I'm going to make efforts to get that. I totally understand what you mean and I'm going to make some Investigation regarding this and see what I can dig out " Jake assured him.Leo smiled" Thanks a lot. I owe you a lot for that ""Don't mind it Young Master, it's my duty to do so" Jake stated before they ended the line.Leo trusted Jake and knew he was typically exceptional in his work. He knew he could trust him with getting the information he needed because he was highly skilled in it.He didn't know if it was true or not, but Leo had overheard somewhere that Jake had Once studied for crime and investigation. So he guessed that was where he got his talent from because he was a guru at th
After listening to the story and analysing it within, Leo thought he might as well know the name of the company which originally made the Maga product. And that was where they were located. And so he asked the man. "And where Is this C.F company located?"The man had taken a while to think it through before giving his reply..he had mentioned the country and the city which was pretty much familiar to Leo.It was actually in the states where he lived and the city wasn't so far away from where he had lived in the states. He Knew the city but hadn't visited the city before. He guessed he was lucky enough to have the city that close.And after gaining the information which he had needed, He bought one of the mega x products and made his way home.He went home to the apartment where he stayed, while analysing the information he got from the man and waiting for further information from Jake.He knew the story was gonna be a big one after he found it all out. And he was pretty much invested i
SIX MONTHS LATERThe Ellison empire had been restored with Leo the sole Heir of the throne. With the news of his identity breaking out on that night, the internet was broken as expected. For over a month, everyone was talking about it. And eighty percent of the comments were basically positive. They acknowledged him after the whole truth was out.Max was bashed as expected and forgotten in a couple of months. Now Leo has become the hottest topic of the moment.He was back as the CEO of the Ellison Empire ( as he has changed the name from whatever Max had given it. And now turned it to this new name)Leo had merged his previous company with The Ellison empire, expanding his power and riches. The company has grown into a great one in a matter of months. A great empire that had become top 1 in the country and still expanding internationally with top spots. It was growing to become bigger than it was when his grandfather had it.It was an achievement on his part.He had also restored the
"let go of me! Let go of me you jerks! Let go!" Max struggled to set himself free from the grasp of the police men to drag him away. But to no avail. They had brought him to his car, about to take him in when Leo arrived at the scene.They stopped and let Leo bid him farewell before they took him away.Max paused as he stared at them for a while. Zane, Leo, Jake, Mr Otto and Katy were standing there right before him. And he burst out into laughter, a bittered one."I can't believe this...you freaks... All ganged up against me? Only me? Then this shows how powerful and great I was.. for all of you to gang up against me alone!" He laughed.Leo sighed with a smile as he walked up to him "That should be the least of your problem" he expressed as he leaned close to him "What you should worry about now...is what is about to become of you""Highest I'll go to jail... And I'll be back soon... You can mark my words for that" Max said confidently.Leo found himself laughing out loud "Come back
While Mr Otto stood there reading the details of the file confirming Leo's identity in front of al, max was getting sick of it all.He felt some headache while he staggered backwards for a while. He was pissed off and annoyed..he wasn't sure he could stand here any further."Ridiculous...All pathetic..." he mumbled to himself in annoyance as he turned to leave but Zane stood there before his eyes. Blocking his ways."And where do you think you're going? I'm sorry but you can't leave until the party is over? Leaving before it is, is rather... rude.. don't you think so?"He glared at Zane with fury and annoyance "You disgusting pest... Get out of my way this moment. Traitor" he spoke in a low tune while Mr Otto's voice was overshadowed as he read the whole paper to everyone's hearing."I didn't betray you..." Zane smiled as he leaned towards max and said "I just did what you wanted to do to me before you did it.."He continued "I already know you like the back of my hands... I know your
"This is a certificated and verified file containing marital proofs and confirmations that Leo Ellison is in fact that Grandson of Mr Ellison, The Once business Tycoon. Making him the correct heir to the throne of the empire" He read out the summary of the file.Max was speechless as he paused for a second and then looked towards Leo's direction "What the hell are you reading...? That's not what I gave you what bullshit are you talking about?" He snapped.Everyone had started mumbling amongst themselves as they looked around in shock. They had even stared at Leo who casually sat there. He was calmly enjoying what was happening."I'm only reading what I saw on the file, no need to blame me" Mr Otto expressed while shrugging "And I shall read further...."Max didn't let him go further as he snatched the particular paper from his hand "Shut up! You're talking gibberish! That's not what I asked you to read!" He flipped through the paper he had in his hand to see what Mr Otto was on about.
EARLIER THAT EVENING When Max and Zane were in the car heading towards the venue of the event, Max was sitting at the back going through his plans and making sure everything was in order. Zane on the other hand had already planned everything.He cautiously sat there looking through the mirror and making sure Max wasn't too attached to the file that was beside him.They had arrived at the Venue of the event and Max got down, he then handed the file over to Zane and said "You'll be with it. When I call upon you on the stage, I want you to come with this particular file. Then we're gonna end it all with it" He explained.Zane nodded while accepting the file from him. He wasn't too curious but he asked for the sake of asking "They already know me for the bad name I have... And seeing me with you isn't going to spark too positive of a vibe... I'm worried about what people would think of you if they saw me with you..." he expressed, worried.
The murmuring intensified as soon as Max's name was called. Everyone was shocked as they didn't expect someone like him to be called on stage.Max didn't seem to care about what they were saying. Whether they were slandering his name or praising him, he didn't seem to care. Because he came in here with a mission that would change things for the better. And he was bent on achieving that.He got up from where he sat and happily walked up to the stage. With all eyes on him he went straight to take the microphone from Mr Otto, who handed it over to him, and then made his way to make his speech.He was standing before many eyes, anxiously waiting for what he was going to say. And he was glad he had that audience and that attention at that moment. With a smile he proceeded with the pleasantries.He started off on a formal note by thanking everyone for inviting him and appreciated the event and all. Not many people seemed to care about what he was on about but he didn't care. He went on anyw
Leo had attended the event with his dear wife Katy. Both walked hand in hand along the bustling hall of the party while greeting people and exchanging pleasantries.There were people from different countries. All rich fellows of great businesses who were making it to the top spots of the business world. This, Leo was aware of.While they were making themselves at home and welcoming and chatting with people, Max on the other hand had packed just outside the Event building.He came with Zane whom he took to the entrance of the event. He presented his invitation card which he had managed to obtain from heaven knows where. He had insisted on taking Zane in as his "servant" and they had allowed him in.Both walked into the Hall, admiring the Classy decorations made and an exquisite set of people who were present at the event."Beautiful. This is literally my stepping stone to being one of the best CEOs in the country. And I can already feel it
Max had gone forward with making preparations for the upcoming grand event that he had set his mind on attending. He had begun seeking means to enter the event and he had gotten close to achieving that dream.He had met with some people and after some hand shaking and deals made behind the scene with money and all, he had managed to secure a position at the event. He was now assured of attending the event after putting in efforts into it. He was relieved about that.After achieving that, he worked towards his next issue. Which was confirming the information Zane had given to him. The files.He had done this without information Zane, because he had to make sure that Zane wasn't lying to him. But Zane had already known he'd do further investigation on this. Leo had already predicted it. And sequel to that, already had his way of handling it.Zane had called Leo on an evening and updated him on everything that was happening over the phone. He has his ways of finding out that Max was maki
Zane had encouraged his plan of getting into the party as well, that was his plan after all. And both of them had taken their time to discuss some means of achieving this. They didn't come to a conclusion on how Max was going to find his way in, but had stopped it at some point."I'll have to begin seeking for people who can help me get in. I'm pretty sure I have a handful of connections that could help me in. So I don't think that should be a problem" He expressed while leaning backwards into his seat.Zane nodded in agreement "Certainly you will. All you have to do is get in there. And you'll be able to turn the table against him. So the person who leaps to the top in the end...will be you" He hyped..Max nodded in agreement and approval of his praises "So what next? What's the second important information you found?""Oh yes.." He hesitated while looking around "This second one is literally a game changer. The most important information you'll
