Chapter 139

There was some short silence in the car as Michael scratched the back of his head before answering, “You're right. However, I still have some unfinished tasks that need to be tackled.”

“Hmm,” John only let out a shallow breath and didn't say anything. They both became focused as the car drove.

Suddenly, a notification from Michael's phone broke the brief silence that once filled the car. He brought out his phone and read the message.

After reading it, he slapped his forehead, “Oops, how could I totally forget that today is her birthday?”

The message that Michael had just received was from Ella, who was only reminding him about her birthday, not because she was expecting anything from him.

“Driver, please, stop the car!” Michael called to the driver and the car gently stopped. He turned his attention to John and said, “Please, you can move on. I have to be on my friend Ella's birthday.” He came down from the car where there was not much crowd.

“Ella?” John

    Chapter 140 The sales clerk was surprised and slightly frightened at the same time. She looked at Michael who demanded for the account to be paid into without him complaining about the price like other clients had always done. As she was lost in thought, Michael snapped his finger at her, bringing her back to the world, “Hey, the account details, please; I have somewhere that I'm going to.” He said with a light frown. “Oh, I'm sorry.” The sales clerk feigned a smile. “430 362……” She began to call the account details to Michael and Michael entered them swiftly and carefully. He entered the amount immediately after the sales clerk was done calling the account number and pressed the money to the account number. “Have you seen the money?” Michael asked the sales clerk who shook her head in response. “No, sir. Let's wait for it. I think it's a network issue.” She said, and Michael only sighed, annoyed with the fact that the network had always been his issue whenever he was try

    Chapter 141 Meanwhile, at the Grand Hotel, Lucy rolled her body as the morning sun shone through the windows, alighten the whole room. The bright morning sun shone through her eyes which caused her to slowly get up from the bed. She yawned, stretching her body, “It's morning seven o'clock already and I'm still sleeping. Oh, lazy me.” She got up, and remembered what happened last night, “Michael? Oh, no. How could you be sleeping up to this time, Lucy?” She yelled at herself. “I need to hurry up and go meet him, I know he must be resting, relieving himself from the stress last night.” She thought and quickly entered the bathroom, washed herself, brushed up, took her bag, and went out after turning off the lights. Lucy headed straight to room 010 which once belonged to Michael. As she stood in front of the door, she brought out a perfume bottle and spread herself with it one more time before knocking on the door with a composed demeanor to impress Michael at first sight.

But she called out to the security guards in pain, “Securites, come take her away!” Her voice dripped with pain and anger. Within a minute, security guards rushed in. The receptionist then yelled at them with command, pointing at Lucy, “Get her out of this place now!” With a nod, the security guards gripped Lucy’s wrist firmly, dragging her outside. “Leave me! Let me go, you brats!” She yelled at the security guards, trying to break free from their grips but failed. “Ah! She was not only a prostitute but a lunatic. Oh, mine.” The woman who had made the mock comment earlier said, hitting her forehead. “You? Just be quiet!” Lucy glared at her with so much hate.

His face also darkened, “Eat your breakfast and get your pathetic self out of here!’ Ella quickly interjected, walking to Michael, “What are you doing here? I was trying to call you not to come over. Please, you have to go before my Boss comes down.” Ella urged Michael to leave. But the customer interrupted, angry, “How dare you call me pathetic?” He blasted. “I can see that you want her to lose her job, isn't it?” “Just shut, your mouth stinks!” Michael shot back, “Besides, you're just a poor thing who can't do anything.” “You dare call me that?” “Yes! And what can you do?” “Enough, Michael! Stop it!” Ella stepped in, trying to make Michael not talk harshly to the customer knowing that his action might cause her to lose her job. “He's one of our customers and you

Her eyes blinked as she stared at it and her eyes shifted to Michael, “A gold jewelry? Where did you get it from?” She asked.Michael smiled, “From a jewelry store, of course. Where else do they sell it?” He asked.Ella wore a frown. She said, “That's not what I mean! My question is where did you get the money to buy it?” Her expression was filled with startlement.Michael was about to respond to her but then, the onlooker started to talk.“Oh, wow! That's the most expensive gold jewelry in a jewelry store.” One man said, “I took my wife to buy her that exact type, but the price was somewhat frightening, so I have to leave it and get her the silver jewelry instead.” He added, his eyes were wide open, envying the gold jewelry. “As for me, I have no intention of going to the jewelry store any time soon.” Another

    Chapter 145 Immediately the sales clerk asked that the doziness that had earlier formed in Michael's eyes were driven away. Michael frowned his face but later on, smiled with the thought that the sales clerk might have probably forgotten his face, maybe since she attends to numerous customers. He maintained his comportment and explained himself, “Don't tell me that you don't remember me.” Michael smiled slightly, “Anyways, I'm the guy who bought the gold jewelry. I made a transfer, and it was successful, but you said you didn't see it. I then made use of my ATM card.” He explained everything to the sales clerk briefly, unaware that she was putting on an act and that she vividly remembered him. “You were even the one who suggested that I should give you my number so that you will call me once you see the money.” Michael continued and then paused, “Do you remember me now?” He asked. However, the sales clerk stuck to her fake act, “I don't know what you're talking about.” S

Michael threw a fierce stare at the sales clerk, knowing she was acting but then looked at the manager, “How could you be so fast in judging someone? I bought gold jewelry from her. I transferred the money, but there was a network issue, so I had to pay with my card, telling her that I'd come back for the money once it dropped, and it has.” Michael quickly brought out his phone to back up his claim. He tried to show it to the manager but he was too angry to even look at him. “Enough!” He stopped Michael from getting close to him. “I don't want to hear any more words from you.” He paused and continued. “You want me to believe in your forged lies? Huh? How real does your story sound? You bought gold jewelry and made a transfer with your phone and when there was a network problem, you paid with your card and left without w

This simply means that the man who was with him right there in the shop was extremely rich to have made such payment and move.The sales clerk nodded her head, “Yes, sir. He wasn't lying. He actually did as he had said.” She confirmed.“And you?” The manager shot angrily at h

    Chapter 173 *Weeks later* The hall was decorated with balloons, and luxurious cars were parked everywhere in the surroundings. Men and women in elegant suits were happily moving around with glasses of red wine in their hands. Cameras were already mounted everywhere with photographers taking pictures. The event was streamed live on all channels all over the world making people stay connected to it. “Wow, this is a remarkable and unforgettable day of my life. I'm gonna frame this for my grandchildren.” One exclaimed, smiling widely, taking in the luxurious atmosphere. ‘Indeed, it is. It's worth sharing!” One responded.

He also wore a stole around his neck and a chasuble worn around his shoulders and stood in front of everyone. This is the priest.

    The Attack

    Chapter 172 On the podium, Mr. John pointed at Michael and said, “He's the president of this great company from today henceforth.” He declared firmly. And the whole hall erupted into applause. And murmuring started, “Oh, wow. He looks handsome and young to handle such a company.” “I believe he's capable of handling it, that's why it's been handed to him.” The announcement had been made and yet the journalists seemed not to be leaving. One brave journalist stepped forward and said directly to Michael, “Sir, please, can you tell us? Do you have any experience in this before now?” Michael smiled, shaking his head, “No, I don't. However, I have studied and mastered everything that has to be done through the mentor of my beloved Uncle and manager.” He pointed to John and Franklin. “So, if I must answer, then yes.” The journalist nodded, impressed, “So, tell us, sir. What's your exact age?” “Just 26.” “26, and you're controlling a trillion-dollar company?” She swallowed an

Inside the big office in the company, Mr. John Lewis and Franklin sat. He looked at Franklin and asked, “Have they arrived?” “Yes, sir.” Franklin nodded.“What about Michael, has he arrived yet?” Franklin shook his head, “I don't think he has arrived. But let me call him.” He brought out his phone and called Michael. The phone kept ringing but there was no response after several trials. John looked at him and said, “Maybe, he might be on his way. Just go and lead the journalists in.” Franklin nodded and left. Getting outside, he saw a group of journalists who were all dressed in black and navy suits. He approached them with an authoritative demeanor, drawing everyone's attention of everyone to himself, “Go

I just need a smartphone of any brand that has amazing features, a long-lasting battery, and fast browsing. Any latest model or brand at all.” “Alright, do you want an iPhone 16? It's fast and has a good camera….” The sales representative began. Michael interrupted, “And what about the battery? Just don't worry about it, I'm using that brand and the battery doesn't last long. Don't you have any other brand apart from the Apple brand?” The sales representative nodded, “We do. Samsung Galaxy is another best brand that provides you with a long-lasting battery and other amazing features.” “What's the model?” “Samsung Galaxy S24, sir.” “Please, bring that for me.” Michael requested, “Bring it in pairs.” He wanted to taste the brand as well. “Sorry, I forgot, bring two HP computers alongside.”

    Chapter 169 Meanwhile, after Michael and Philip finished freshening up themselves, they headed to the parking lot. Michael, holding two car keys, threw one to Philip while he retained one. The car key he handed to Philip was the one belonging to a Mercedes Benz AMG that was worth over $200,000. “That's the key to that car.” He pointed at the sleek black Mercedes Ben that was parked in the lot. “It belongs to you from henceforth.” He said, walking to hop into the same brand of car. “Mine?” Philip said out with disbelief causing Michael to halt in his steps. He turned back and nodded with confirmation, “Yes, it's yours. Whenever you're going out, go with it. This is a small gift from me to you for being a good friend.” Overwhelmed with gratitude, Philip was about to fall on his knees in Michael's front but Michael swiftly caught him right in the air, shaking his head lightly, “You don't have to. You were there by my side when those school bullies were after my life.” He said

Her face was filled with thick makeup that made her look extremely beautiful. Also, her neck was adorned with gold jewelry that added to her beauty. She walked into a compound with graceful steps carrying a handbag. As she got inside the living room where the whole family was sitting, she let out a warm smile. “Aah! Ella? You're here?” Rose jumped and hugged her, happily. “You didn't tell me you were coming so fast.” She helped with the handbag. Ella smiled, “But at least I told you that I'll come to visit you. That's what is important.” She then walked to Stephen, “Good day, sir.” Turning to Maria, she greeted, “Good day, ma'am.” Then to Grandma Isabella, she said, “Good day, Granny.” Grandma Isabella smiled, “You're welcome, my granddaughter. We have missed you a lot. And you look beautiful today.” “Yes, Grandma. I'm wondering what's making her look s

    Chapter 167Philip was startled, hearing that. His hand vibrated for fear, causing the glass of coffee to fall from his hand to the ground.Michael took a sharp look at him, “What's wrong, Philip? Is he the man?” He asked.Philip nodded, opening his mouth to answer but no words came out from his mouth. He then stood up as a group of officers walked into the coffee shop.“Here's that bastard!” Noah said, eyeing Philip with contempt.“Hey, you can't call him that!” Michael intervened, warning Noah. Noah glanced at him with a surprise yet furious gaze, “And who are you?” “I’m his brother and I won't…..” Noah interjected, “So, you're that bastard who had the guts to speak to me over the phone that way?” He moved to grab Michael but the senior officer interrupted, feeling belittled.“Mr. Noah, with all due respect, sir we won't tolerate this act of yours. We are here and you can't take laws into your hands.” He said and turned to Philip.“Young man, you're under arrest for trying to ru

    Chapter 166 Philip raised an eyebrow at Michael, “What do you mean by I know him?” He asked, “You're rich yet you don't know him. How will I know him then?” Michael, still wearing a smiling expression, said dismissively, “Don't worry, you will get to know when it's time.” Philip was silent, looking at him with dull and heavy eyes. He was slowly feeling sleepy, his eyes growing dim. He then managed to say, “Whatever.” He stood up and taped Michael's shoulder, “I need to sleep. Good night.” “Alright, have a nice rest,” Michael responded, also sensing his eyes going heavy, intending to sleep too. Without any more words, Philip walked out and slammed the door behind him. The next day around six o'clock, the morning broke at a sophisticated building with a spacious compound. By the left side of the house was a blue canopy accommodating two sleek black and red cars. Inside the living room of this house, a man was spotted, sitting on a sofa, looking through the door, and seem

    News All Over

    Chapter 165 “Why? Why should I leave the man I love?” Jennifer retorted her father's words, sounding angry. All this time, Morgan was still there, looking surprised and shocked, confusion washing all over him. He wasn't hearing what Jennifer was discussing with her father but her actions and replies were beginning to make him feel uncomfortable. Noah cleared his throat and explained softly, “Jennifer, it's not that I'm against your relationship with him. From the picture that you sent to me, it's clearly stated and instructed that no company, both small and big, should employ this young man that I'm seeing.” Jennifer squeezed her face, looking confused, “What do you mean no company should employ him? And by whose order was such law made? And why?” Noah, trying to steady his voice, said, “I don't know the reason why but the law was made by the newly elected anonymous president of the Golden Group of Companies.” “What?” Jennifer was startled. How did the new president even
