Chapter Ten
“The car is not a major problem for now.I will look into it when I am done with what is in front of me, there is something important I need you to do for me if you don’t mind Miss Kim” said Xander to his secretary“I’m all ears young master Kings” she said ,her iPads in hand ready to pen down her young masters orders.“Call me Xander please “ he insisted because he was not used to people calling him a young master,it sounded foreign to his ears.“I can’t call you by your name young master Kings, that will sound very disrespectful and I don’t think that-the grandmaster Kings will tolerate that kind of behavior” said secretary Kim“Never mind, please contact the number and email on this business card. I just bought Royal Castle and I need you to handle the paperwork for me and I don’t want any mistakes to happen, call me if you need any form of clarification and make sure the ownership documents are legal and authentic “instructed Xander in a serious business man tone.“Alright young master,what about the bodyguards ??grandmaster Kings said that security should be assigned to you because he doesn’t want anything to happen to you “Asked Miss Kim“It’s going to be so awkward for them to be following me around all of a sudden, everything is so new to me and I am still adapting to this new identity of mine”complained Xander to Miss Kim who seems to always have a solution for a situation.“It’s alright, they don’t have to follow you toe to toe when they can do their job from afar off ,they just need to be vigilant and attentive“ suggested Miss Kim and the idea was okay by Xander.“Thank you Miss Kim,we will take these one step at a time.Go and do what I instructed you to do,I don’t need you for the meantime” Xander dismissed Miss Kim and went into Zion's apartment to get a shower.“You’re rich overnight and you are all of a sudden surrounded by beautiful ladies …your lifestyle is a vibe” teased Zion when he saw how beautiful Secretary Kim,she still looks pretty even in her medicated glasses.“You guys are back?” Asked Erik looking shocked the moment we entered the living room“Yes, you thought we were going to get arrested and you abandoned us ,that was not a cool move bro”replied Zion with an accusing voice“What did you want me to do ? It’s not my fault that Xander was acting way above his means and class and I’m not ready to ruin my reputation and go to prison over something silly and because Of his stupid decision” said Erik,he wasn’t even looking remorseful at all and that was when Xander decided to make up his mind and remove Erik from the list of his friends, Zion is the only loyal and faithful friend he has.“Well the jokes are all in your Erik, you can’t imagine the crazy drama that went down when you left us and oh for the records , Xander now owns the damn restaurant “ said Zion looking into Erik’s shocked face with a triumphant smile.“You guys are just capping, that’s a lie.Royal Castle is the most expensive restaurant in this city and it will definitely cost millions of dollars.Even if Xander sells is kidneys and heart , he can’t afford that” said Erik in disbelief“Show him the black card, young master Kings “ said Zion. but Xander looked away while running his hand through his hair , he is not used to this lifestyle and he doesn’t want to seem like he is bragging about his new identity and position.“Hey, it’s alright Zion. Don’t bother him anymore. I need to shower and go shopping for some new clothes” said Xander dismissing the topic concerning Erik“Make sure you look dapper, you know that the Ice Queen Anastasia is a fashion icon and her date is supposed to look hot too” said Zion as Erik kept staring at the two young men , looking all confused but he didn’t speak a word.Erik ignored them and thought that Xander and Zion were just pranking him because he couldn’t believe the poor Xander is now a young master and already going out with the untouchable Anastasia, Erik is one of the men on campus that desire Anastasia in secret because they know that they can’t keep up to her standard.“This must be some kind of joke” Erik muttered to himself as he went back to playing his game shaking his head in disbelief.Xander took his time to shower , wore his only pair of clothes , picked his black card and head out to the big shopping mall which was the closest to the Princeton university , Xander took the train and it was when he paid his transport fare with his black card that he remembered that his secretary Kim asked him of his preferred choice of car.“This is so funny, I keep forgetting that I am now rich” whispered Xander to himself as he chuckled in disbelief.Xander Kings kept his mind busy on his way to the mall, he was thinking hard about his next business investment …what can he invest in that will yield him money and a good amount of profit ? He thought but his mind suddenly wandered to Anastasia, the beautiful goddess seemed so nice and polite towards him and he doesn’t know whether she wants him as a friend or something more. Xander knows that a lot of girls will soon start flocking around him because of his money and he needs to be careful about who he gives his heart to.Xander entered the shopping mall, went directly to the Mens clothing session and bought a simple blue shirt and a chinos trousers with matching timberland shoes, he has never attend any Rich or Elite gathering so he wasn’t so sure on what kind of outfits to buy so he stuck to the basic to avoid being extra“Even my grandmaster Kings was dressing casually when I met him” thought Xander when he finished picking up the clothing items and perfume he needed. Xander also bought a pen and a hardcover journal where he will be writing down all the business ideas that popped to his brain.“Excuse me, can you please cash this for me?” Xander asked the mall attendant politely“That will be 1200 dollars in total “ she said and Xander nodded his head and brought out his black card to give her , her hands stopped midway when she saw what was in his hands.“Is this what I think it is ! Hope you didn’t steal someone’s card?!””She said looking so surprised as she kept looking at Xander from head to toe with a judgemental look.“It’s mine, I will put the pin so that you will know it’s mine” said Xander feeling pissed and offended , no one has ever called him a thief and even when he was poor and at the brink of death…he never stole anything because he is a young man of integrity.“Wait a minute, I will be right back” said the mall attendant as she went back towards the office section of the mall.“Being a rich person can be so tiring especially when no one believes you ”whispered Xander as he patiently waits for the mall attendant to come back.“would have gone back but I need the clothes' ' thought Xander and that’s when an idea hit his head! Clothes are essentials and so are food and some daily provisions and groceries. The items and goods might not cost a large amount of money but when a large number of people buy it, the little amount of dollars adds up to a huge amount of money.“I’m going to buy this mall and add it to my chain of investment “ thought Xander Kings feeling really pleasant and satisfied with his decision.“Grandfather will be so proud of me when he finds out that I have already owned two large investments which are also landed assets in my name and I am grateful for the capital and the black card which makes my business ideas financially feasible ” thought Xander Kings.“Yes, that’s the guy I am telling you about. I don’t trust him ,no one has ever come to buy anything with a black card in this mall and it’s suspicious, look at the way he looks, check out his shabby hair for goodness sakes and his clothes are tattered!” said the mall attendant pointing towards me with some few other attendants behind her and there was one that had the tag called “Manager “.Chapter Eleven “Yes, that’s the guy I am telling you about. I don’t trust him ,no one has ever come to buy anything with a black card in this mall and it’s suspicious, look at the way he looks, check out his shabby hair for goodness sakes and his clothes are tattered!” said the mall attendant pointing towards me with some few other attendants behind her and there was one that had the tag called “Manager “.“Excuse me young lady, I will kindly advise you to refrain from making such assumptions” said Xander a little bit loudly feeling really pissed and tat attracted some customers attention and there was a mini crowd already forming “So sorry, young man. Let’s get to the bottom of this matter and resolve peacefully without attracting unnecessary attention please ” said the manger“Can you cash this for me and I need to talk to you about something important too” said Xander to the manager ignoring the mall attendants that were sending glances his way. “Okay, Can I take your card and ca
Chapter Twelve “I came to shop for some shoes and bags , so do you want to come along with me and maybe get me some things too, you know I love to be spoiled with gifts?” Karen said, biting her lips and speaking in a tiny voice. “No, I am busy . If that’s all, excuse me because I will like to take my leave “ Xander replied with a straight voice and no emotions written in his face “Why are you acting all dumb Xander, I thought you like me? You even gave me your family heirloom ring ,remember ?“ whined Karen moving closer to Xander and placing her hands on his arms as she made little seductive circle and moves on him.“That was in the past, I don’t have feelings for you anymore besides you have your boyfriend so I don’t want to have anything to do with you Karen“ said Xander slowly making sure it sticks into Karen’s head. “Are you sure about that ?” Asked Karen as she arch her back which made her boobs pop out , Xander could see her perky nipples from the angle he was standing since
Chapter Thirteen Duke Ambrose’s large mansion was located in the government reserved area of the city where only the elite live. There was tight security at every corner and all the houses around were magnificently built. Anastasia was on her phone throughout the ride while Xander kept looking outside the window and admiring the exotic scenery. “We are home “ said Anastasia in a sexy voice when the driver drove through an electric gate and parked in front of a large entrance that was wide open. A lot of chauffeurs were already standing by and they opened the door for Xander and Anastasia before bowing a little out of respect. “This place is breathtaking “ whistled Xander as ke kept looking around the house. His grandfather’s house was beautiful, so is Duke’s Ambrose’s mansion that looks like an estate because it was so big. The house was designed like a modern royal palace which is not surprising since Duke Ambrose is affiliated with the royal family , even the flowers and trees
Chapter Fourteen All this wouldn’t have happened if this tall giraffe wasn’t trying to steal my girlfriend in broad daylight!” barked Jordan Woods who seemed really pissed and drunk. “Did you just insult me and call me an animal instead of you to apologize to Anastasia?” Barked Xander seriously angry at how unreasonable Jordan Woods is behaving. “This wouldn’t have happened if you didn’t show up and danced with her, it’s all your fault…for fucks sakes just look at the way your dressed! It’s a disgrace that Anastasia is even allowing you to touch her right now !” Spitted out Jordan Woods which made everyone’s attention to go back to the three young people.“How dare you speak like that to my guest and in my very own eyes after hurting my daughter ! You have some nerves and balls young man!” Shouted Duke Anderson while Xander looked for a serviette and placed it over the finger where Anastasia was bleeding. “Why are you speaking to me like that, Duke Anderson, don’t you know who I am
Chapter Fifteen “Maybe I should have risked it and kissed her but then if she really wanted me to kiss her , she would have taking the initiative and ask me herself” Xander complained to his friend Zion, he is feeling a little but foolish for not kissing Anastasia back at the part and the thoughts have been bothering him.“Man, if I was in your shoes my brains wouldn’t have thought of acting responsible or about doing the right thing . Have you seen the Ice Queen? Anastasia is the most hottest girl in the entire campus and I am pretty sure more than half of the male population have one time had a wet dream or jerk off at the thoughts of her “ said Zion shaking his head, he was clearly disappointed that his friend had this juicy opportunity in private with the hit goddess only for him to blew it. “Hey, I can’t just assume things. I need her consent and it’s not like we are dating or in a relationship “ said Xander “There is no cap that she likes you, it’s just not clear why she likes
Chapter Sixteen “Have you seen any house that captures your interest Sir?” Asked the kind receptionist after a few minutes and Xander nodded his head in agreement. “I have four houses in mind. ''I told her and she came over to take a look at the mansions Xander chose and she smiled politely. “Will you like to come back again when you have the money to deposit?” She asked “No, I will like to take a look at the house right now “ Xander answered “Doing waste your time and your fuel on this man, he won’t buy it. Don't say that I didn’t want you” said the mean receptionist “He is my client and none of your business . Stop poking your nose where it doesn’t belong “ said the Kind receptionist before leading Xander out to her car, which was a small sedan, and they both talked about the different features and designs of the various houses on their way. Xander and the kind real house agent went to the first two house and Xander didn’t see anyone that caught his attention but his heart f
Chapter Seventeen “Does running away from Monday counts for cardio?” Xander murmured as he woke up the next day feeling very tired and he needed more sleep. “I have school and I haven’t told the school administration that I won’t be cleaning back school premises again. I have a meeting with the shopping mall stakeholders, I also need to go to the bank to draft a check for my new mansion… I obviously need a car now and some cash with me” said Xander looking at himself in the mirror. His life is suddenly all busy and his daily routine of reading his books, training for sports and cleaning the Princeton University Premises has now been seriously altered. Xander brushed his teeth, took his bath and ate on the dining table with Zion as he narrates everything that happened to him at the real estate management company. “I don’t get it why people will choose to be rude and mean when they don’t even know someone’s real identity “ companies the considerate Zion “The world is really a si
Chapter Eighteen “I would like to see the bank manager please?” Xander asked the banker in the ‘custom care’ section of the large Central Bank which had high ceilings, countless security cameras and a very cold air conditioner.“What’s the problem with your bank account if I may ask ? So that I can help you fix it” said the customer care sounding all professional and uptight in his blue business suit. “I will like to stamp a check for a huge transaction and also to withdraw some cash” answered Xander “I can help you with that if the transaction is below a million dollars” said the banker while clicking away on his computer.“Yeah,it’s a little more than that” answered Xander “Can I see some form of Identification or something?” Asked the banker as if he was running some kind of interrogation. Xander removed his black card and compliment card and showed it to the banker who went mute. The banker lifts his head up and took a long curious look at Xander before standing up fromHis cu
