Maxwell kept struggling with the guards but they just took him outside and tossed him like a ragdoll. The guards then blocked the entrance refraining him from entering inside."Hey let me in! My fiance is in there. Hannah!" He yelled."Get out of here you poor trash!" The guards booted him as he fell on the floor helplessly.He kept ranting sending threats to them."Just go home!" They taunted him.All of a sudden a car stoped at the entrance, it was accompanied by two more similar cars. Maxwell and the guards opened their mouths in shock when they saw the logo on the car. The Blackwoods."No way," he gasped.The driver's seat was opened and the driver came out rushing to open the passenger's seat. Sam came out first, then followed by Marcus."Marcus?" Maxwell said unbelievably.What the hell was Marcus doing in a Blackwoods vehicle?Marcus was gracious in his appearance, exuding an aura of an Alpha male. His black suit was perfect, and Sam also wearing a black suit.Marcus walked ins
The entire crowd began to laugh at his defeat. They hailed Marcus for his physical strength and financial potential.Marcus then turned to leave but Maxwell held his legs. "Please forgive me!" Maxwell begged, he had realized Marcus was indeed the real Blackwood, he didn't cared to know how it was possible but the fact that Marcus just did what he did that was a fact.Just then the Berlings and Magnus came outside too, Martha had heard the rumors that the Blackwood was outside."Marcus?" Hannah was also shocked, seeing Marcus and Maxwell begging him on the floor. Hannah's mind was racing as she tried to process what she was seeing. Marcus, the man she had once loved and lost, was now a billionaire, and he was somehow involved in whatever was happening with Maxwell. And the security guards - they were obviously there to protect him, which meant he must be someone important. She felt dizzy, her thoughts swirling around her head."What is this man still doing here? Guards he's harassing m
"What did you think of me Maxwell? That I was some kind of a prostitute who came to you because of your money?" Hannah asked."Then why did you come to me? Why did you divorce Marcus just to be with me?""There are some truths that are meant to be hidden from the likes of you. Good bye Maxwell." Hannah said moving away."Don't you dare walk away from me!" Maxwell thundered, getting up from the group to grab her hands."Crack!" The security guard hit his elbow with his baton and immediately Maxwell's arm was broken."Ahh!" He cried out rolling on the floor, Hannah gave a single glance at him before walking away."Don't leave me Hannah! You left me for Marcus! You used me for your stupid games. I'll come back for y'all, I will take my revenge!" He declared but Hannah didn't stop from walking away.***At the party ground Marcus had stolen the spotlight from Magnus, everyone was attracted to him. Seeing a Blackwood is not an everyday thing.Hannah walked inside, she kept staring at Marcu
A taxi stopped outside the mansion as Carmelia rushed out, she had gone looking for Mr. Matthew at his house but he was not around, and the maids told her he would be attending the Berlings event. She wasted no time getting here. He was her only hope in getting her mother's treatment bill, or else something bad might happen to her.She ran inside the mansion when the guards blocked her path."Your invitation card please madam." The guards requested."Please I don't have that, but I need to go inside. It's something very important. Please, I need to see Mr. Matthew.""We're sorry madam but we can't let you go in.""But I have to go in, my mother's life depends on this, please let me go in!""You need an invitation before you can go in madam."Carmelia burst into tears, she begged them to let her in, but the guards were only doing their job. She then thinks of a way for her to go inside. She thought of going inside through the window.She then went out of there, she went round the mansio
Carmelia walked back towards the hall and made a turn to a passage leading to Daniel's room but then she spotted Mr. Matthew. The man she had been searching for. Immediately she saw him, a mixed feeling swept over her. She was angry seeing him happy, after everything he had done to her family. He was enjoying the wealth she and her mother was supposed to be enjoying, she wanted him to pay dearly for all his crimes. But then again she was happy she found him.She believed he would be able to help her, since he was her last hope anyways, she had to try her best."Mr Derek" she called him but he didn't hear her so she called again a little bit louder. "Mr. Derek!" Then he turned."Do I know you?" He asked, he couldn't recognize her because she was wearing the maid's uniform so her appearance changed."It's me Carmelia" she replied walking closer to him."You. What are you doing here?" He grinned, he had also hated Carmelia and her mother, because they were trying to seek justice for wha
Marcus heaved a sigh, he felt pity for her, he felt she was saying the truth. But the truth isn't enough to seek justice against a successful business man like Mr. Derek, she needs proof or something that would back up her claims.Marcus then walked out of the mansion, he didn't inform anyone he was leaving, he just entered his car with Sam and was escorted by his guards.“So are we heading home?” Sam asked, he knew when Marcus thought of something else.“No, let's pay the station a visit.” He replied.“Why? Is it about the lady?” Sam asked.“Yes, I can't tell, but I feel like she was telling the truth.” Marcus said.“So you believe we should get ourselves involved in this?” Sam asked.“It's not a big deal if we do, if we can help those in need why not” Marcus said.If there was one thing Marcus had learnt in life was that, the rich always bully the poor. Even if the rich were the ones on the wrong, it's always the poor who get punished. Hannah and Maxwell had taught him this lesson.
“Please Mr. Blackwood it won't happen again, I'm so sorry” the officer pleaded with her head down.“Who asked you to do this?” Marcus enquired.“Wha...""Who asked you to do this? I know someone paid you to do so. Now tell me who it was!" The officer trembled from his voice."It was...it was..." She stammered, scared of calling the name of the person."Who was it!""It was Mr. Derek, Mr. Blackwood. He agreed to pay me five million. I'm so sorry." She confessed.Marcus wasn't too surprised, he had been suspicious of the whole thing."How awful can you be? you caused harm to your fellow human. for what? money? is five million worth more than her life?" Marcus angered."I'm sorry Mr. Blackwood, I accept that I was greedy, please forgive me!""You won't get away with this! I promise you that, I'll make sure you lose your position here, and also rot in prison. people like you don't deserve to stay in this society!""Please I need this job to take care of my daughter, I'm sorry!"The officer
At night Maxwell could be seen at a bar, with so many beers on his table.His eyes were dirty, he was completely drunk, he had been drinking ever since he was kicked out of the Berlings mansion."I hate you Marcus, I'm gonna kill you!" He screamed to the air, as all the other customers looked at him and laughed.Maxwell had sworn with his life to take his revenge on Marcus, even if it meant killing him. In just one night his entire life was turned around, from somebody to nobody he was as useless and broke as a beggar, even the old Marcus who was an ordinary cameraman was way richer than his current situation. Marcus didn't even spare his bank account, he froze everything, his cars, mansion and also his assets were no more. He was just a homeless man with no other plans in life. Not only did he lose his wealth, but also discovered Hannah's betrayal.When he first found out she was the daughter of the Berlings he was excited and thought it was a perfect opportunity to double his Weal
