Jake sat on the comfy swivel chair in the office of the old chairman, which is now his office but he has not yet moved in, it still looks more like the way the old chairman left it, there are no changes at all.

He faced the huge glass window that replaced the wall that was supposed to be there.

He had his index and thumb finger on his chin, deep in thought.

Just when he thought that he had finally solved the huge mystery in his life ever since he was told that he was the rightful heir of the McPherson consortium, he discovered that there was another one who seemed greater than he thought.

He had offered an opportunity to Josh to choose between two choices, the first one was that his cases would be reported to the police and he would be arrested, with the power he is now possessing, he would make sure he was either on death row or is spending his entire life behind the four walls of the cell. The second choice he offered him was that he would dedicate his life to him, act, and do e

    Jake sat still in the car, watching people walk in and out of the bank, some with smiles on their faces. Some with a blank expression. It didn’t take up to thirty minutes for Max to call him back, it seemed like the operation had been completed. He stretched his hand to grab his phone and swiped to answer the call, he placed the phone by the side of his ear.“Sir, it has been done, I will forward the soft copies of the documents to you now, sir,” Max said immediately after Jake had picked up the call.“That is great,” Jake said with a nod of his head. He stepped out of the car, a loud sigh escaping his lips, he looked down on himself to take in what he was wearing from head to toe. It was a simple casual dress, he had taken off the suit and shirt he wore to work. “Send it to me, I will let you know if I need anything else, later,” he said and walked into the bank building. “Alert all the workers of a meeting today to announce their sale to the McPherson consortium, the bank is to c

    “No way, our new boss?” “What does he mean, this is a joke, right?” “You’ve got to be kidding me?’ They were all murmuring among themselves, their voices filled with panic. Jake looked around, his eyes moving from everyone, the look on their faces was enough to tell him about the people who had insulted him. The manager was the one that was taken aback the most but he quickly composed himself before Jake laid his eyes on him. He quickly cleared his throat, “Congratulations sir,” he said, beaming with a smile, his hand stretched forward for a handshake. Jake looked down at his hand in disgust, he slipped his hand into his pockets and raised his head to look at him, his eyes were dark and cold, and his lips stretched into a cold smile. He pulled his hand out of his pocket and accepted the handshake, gripping his hand tight, he closed the gap between them and whispered in his ear, “I guess you already know what to do or do you need me to remind you about it?” “Um… I don’t know wh

    “It’s fine if you don’t want to answer that, I will understand,” Jake said with a blank expression on his face. Her facial expression shows that she probably knows that she wasn’t being raised by her real family.She bent her head down, her eyes on the ground, she hesitated before proceeding to talk, “No, it is fine, it seems like you already know, and so what is the use of not answering you?”“OK, I am waiting for your answer”“They told me a long time ago that they are not my biological family” she answered, with her head still bent low, her voice wavering.“Do you know who your real family is?” She raised her head to look at him, wondering why he was asking her those questions, “No, I once tried looking for them but it was all to no avail, I couldn’t find them, no matter how hard I tried and I don’t even have the resources to do so. I gave up eventually” “One thing you must know is that your family is a very powerful and dangerous one, one good side to it is that they are powerfu

    Jake’s hand gripped the steering wheel tightly, his foot pressing the accelerator pedal as hard as he could, swerving to escape cars as fast as he could. He could feel his heart beating fast against his ribcage like it was trying to break free, he was barely able to think straight. He glanced at the map on his phone briefly, he followed the direction it was leading him to and turned right, taking another glance at his phone to check the time, he had started a timer immediately after he had received the text message. He had less than twenty minutes left and according to the map, it was supposed to take him forty minutes to get there but he had already spent less than half of that time for more than half of the journey. “Fuck!” he muttered under his breath, driving as fast as he can, his son’s life was in danger. He started regretting why he hadn’t pushed harder for the custody of his son after he broke free but at that moment, that didn’t seem like the best thing to do, it would crea

    "Why are you hesitating to answer, this isn't something you are supposed to be hesitant about," Jake said, stretching his arm wide apart with a serious expression on his face, he was acting like he was serious about it but deep down he wasn't, it was all just a bravado while stalling for time, but either way it goes, it is all in his favor. There was no way he would lose in a fight against Shane. Shane looked around, his gaze lingering on Maddison before moving back to Jake. "Why will I waste my time on you?" he questioned with a mocking expression on his face. "You are bred up to be a thug, I am brought up differently, engaging in a fight with you is a waste of my time" he added, a slight chuckle escaping his lips. "Huh? Is that what you are forcing yourself to believe?" Jake asked, shaking his head, "So you mean to tell me that if you were with your wife, the both of you without bodyguards and you were attacked by even a single person, you would turn and run away with your tail b

    Shane chuckled nervously, raising his arms above his head. “It is just a harmless prank and it is not my idea, it is hers,” he said, pointing to Maddison. Maddison turned to look at him with a surprised look on her face, “What do you mean by this is my idea? Wasn’t it you who came up with it and told me that it was just to get back at him for what he did to you?” Maddison disagreed. “Not like it is any of my business who came up with the idea, the only person I have business with is you,” Jake said, pointing his finger to Shane, who shrieked back in fear.“Me?” he pointed to himself, looking around, a nervous chuckle escaping his lips again, “What more do you want from me?” he questioned. “A lot Shane, a fucking lot,” Jake said, walking towards him in slow strides, with each step he took, Shane made sure to take another one backward. “You can just tell me the answer to the question that I have been craving an answer to or I will carry you back to where you escaped from and this tim

    Jake leaned on his car with his arms folded across his chest with a blank expression on his face, he watched Shane being pulled out roughly by his bodyguards, and he struggled to break free from their grasp. Immediately he was dragged to the front of the car, he kept looking around, his eyes searching, after noticing that what he was looking for was nowhere to be found, a look of disappointment slowly crept in. He stopped his struggle and entered the car, complying with the bodyguards who pushed him in, they closed the door and stood still with their hands by their sides, turning to face Jake, waiting for orders. “Take him to the senior McPherson home, I will be right behind you” he said and entered the car he had come in, which was behind the car where Shane was kept. The front seat door was opened and Max came in. He watched them enter the car in front of him and ignited the engine, driving into the asphalt. He followed them closely behind while the last car that occupied the rem

    The next day, Jake sat in his new office which was the same office of the senior McPherson who once occupied the office before his death. He was lost in thought, his elbow was kept on the table while his hand was folded under his chin. The previous night didn’t go as planned, he thought he could try and stop them but it seemed like he didn’t prepare well, the only thing that he was able to confirm was that the rival he was up against was not small, the person might be far ahead of him when it comes to experience, which might come in handy, the only thing that Jake is on par with his rival is money, but the rest, he seems to be far behind. The only ally who would have been very useful in this fight has been taken off, which was his grandfather. He had tried tracing where the message he received had been sent from through his former college mate but it seemed like the person who had typed it was inside that van and had thrown the phone to the floor, letting the van go over it. “Fuck

    “What about her?”. Sarah pointed to Elizabeth.Jake walked close to her and grabbed her by the clothes.“Give me one reason why I shouldn't put your body alongside theirs”.“I am not going to beg, I deserve anything you do to me”. Elizabeth said not displaying any fear.Jake released her.“I'm letting you go, not because I am too weak to kill you buy because you deserve a better punishment, you will live the rest of your miserable life, thinking about how you failed in this world, and the deaths of all these people will be upon you alone”.Elizabeth did not know when a tear dropped from her eyes, she would have preferred death over leaving like this, when no one was looking she grabbed a gun and shot herself in the head. Jake didn't say anything, he didn't even feel anything, he only held Sarah close to himself and said, “Let's go”.They drove back to the house, and this time it was finally over, when they got in neither Cassandra nor the old man was at home, and a maid told them that

    Aiden's grip on Tyler was strong, he pulled him along to a safe spot away from the bullets that flew recklessly, “What has gotten into you, do you want to die? is your life not important to you, how can you rush head on just to get the deed”.Tyler was not listening, his mind was roaming,“Aiden, I've got a plan, since it's just the two of them and we have more men that are armed, why don't you distract them, while they try to catch up with you, I will just round up around the back and pick up the deed, he dropped it when he shot that guy I saw it”.Aiden was not okay with it, but Tyler can be very persistent, “Okay, but make sure to come to the car in ten minutes, I will try to hold them off for that time”. They followed different directions.When Aiden looked out he didn't see Sarah or Jake, he never thought Jake would have the balls to pull a fast one on them, he has to be careful, he saw three of his men and told them to go with him quickly, but Max ambushed them and Sarah's men,

    Tyler started laughing, he laughed so hard and loud that tears formed around his eyes, Jake even wondered what was so funny about what he said, when he got his breath back he looked into Jake's eyes, “I always knew you were a smart guy, that is why handling you has been theost difficult task to do, i hear your terms but I don't know if Aiden will agree to it, if he doesn't agree to it you have no choice but to come along with it”.“I have a choice and I'm not giving the deed until I see that Sarah is safe and she is beside me”.“You are quite adamant, fine I'll see what I can do to make him accept, although it will be difficult, don't get your hopes up”. Tyler still laughed a bit as he turned his wheelchair and wheeled himself out.Jake gave a huge sigh as he left, that should work, in two days the would have Sarah back, he called in Max who had fully resumed work with Jake.“I just saw Tyler leaving, still on his wheelchair”. Max said.“I am surprised as well, anyways let's forget ab

    “Jake?, I've studied him even before Robinson found him, I got to know who he really was but I didn't make any move on him, keeping his identity secret guaranteed his safety more than anything else, but when Robinson found him out he did not hesitate to announce him as chairman, knowing fully well that the people on the hunt for his existence will stop at nothing to find him”.Elizabeth just gave Sarah some useful information, “if you had found him long before, why didn't you approach him in secret, he must have yearned for a family like you all those years, and probably prepared his mind for events like this' '.“You are not getting me at all, revealing myself would have posed a lot of threat to him then and could have gotten him killed, how did you think we were able to manipulate his ex-wife and her new husband into going against him, at least he has the resources to defend himself now, I don't even have anything to say, just that I am not scared of anything happening to me now, I

    Aiden walked straight to where she was huddled and sat beside her not minding her hateful stare, “I am going to ask you one last time, why have you not been eating the food brought to you?”.“Because I'm not hungry, I don't feel like eating anything”.“But you drink the water, do you think the food is poisoned if so it would be easier to poison the water that you drank without any hassle, now listen here, I'm not giving you the food out of courtesy, I'm giving you to hold my end of the deal with your boyfriend, although I promise to give you back to him in one piece, that is if he delivers what I want on time, so next time one of my men bring in your food, I need you to eat and finish it up, do you understand me?”. Sarah gave a nod to show she understood everything that he said.“Good girl”. He tapped her cheeks and left the room with Tyler.“So what do we do now?, Do we just sit and wait?” Tyler asked Aiden.“That is the only thing we can do, wait for him to come to us, don't worry y

    Cassandra grumbled loudly but it fell on deaf ears, “I am now a married woman, you both can't keep making decisions for me”.“Not when it concerns your safety, we will make the decisions to the end, I need you to comply with this one Cassie and I'm not asking”. Max said with a tone of finality.The next day Jake had assembled the top members of his board and Important executives from different branches, he also got a small amount of media personnel to be in the room with them, he was making a statement to Aiden and Tyler, that he was doing as they asked.“Gentleman and ladies, you all must have been wondering the reason for this gathering, as you all know, my grandfather your former chairman found me after plenty of years of searching, and when he finally did, he did not bother that I did not grow up learning the family business, or that I had no idea how to keep his legacy running, but he entrusted me with it all the same, I have tried all I could from when I resumed my responsibilit

    As he got home his mind was calm, there was no longer fear or worry in his mind, and he was just full of determination, he knew he had to move with conviction, no negative emotion must flow from his mind, he didn't see Cassandra and Max as he intended to, instead he showered and changed his clothes and went for a run atiu d the mansion, the run will help keep his mind focused and straight, he ran till he was out of breath and had to walk all the way back. When he got inside he slumped in the chair and signaled for the maid to get him a cold refreshing drink.“Do you want to kill yourself by running that long?, I saw you when you started you know, I just didn't imagine you would go that far,you do not have to stress yourself like that”. Cassandra entered and sat beside him.“Where is he?” Jake asked referring to their grandfather.He's resting inside now, he was just putting up all along, but he is really tired and needs to rest so I took him to a room, he seemed familiar with this pla

    Their grandfather who had been quiet all along finally spoke up, “My dear child, you don't have to blame yourself for what happened, we were more than happy to partake in your joyous moment, I'm sure my dear wife does not regret it one bit, and would give anything to attend any celebration of yours, for years after we stayed away from the McPherson's because of Tessa's death, we still kept our ears opened for any information about you both, we didn't lose hope entirely, my wife would always encourage me and together we waited. When Jake became chairman we were aware of it but decided to give him time to adjust instead of throwing the big news at him that we are his grandparents, and knowing Robinson he would have declined us coming close to you both, he would have been angry as we did not help look for you both, but it wasn't easy on us, we lost the only daughter and child we had, there was no we could have been comforted, we were jealous of him at the same time, which was wrong, he s

    Tyler gave Jake a wicked smile as he walked out of the prison building, “I should have told you that I would not stay in this hell hole for long, but that would have spoiled all the fun, did you enjoy the show that my brother put up?”.Jake was quiet as he opened the back seat for Tyler to enter, he took all of his restraint not to punch Tyler in the day, or rip his head out from his neck, as he started the car out of the driveway, “how is Aiden your brother, isn't he Fred McCarthy's brother”.“Oh Jake, you never learn,I always thought you were wise and had some kind of reserve for you,but you just proved me wrong, were you thinking that he is doing it juy to get revenge on Fred,heck no, we don't care about that guy at all,he was just a sacrificial lamb, made to stake out his neck for us, but he was useful while alive, I think that is the only reason I will miss him, before I forget,my brother told me that you have destroyed all evidence against yourself, so we don't have anything aga
