Mr. Gilead stood from his window and saw as his favourite nephew arrived his house with an uber. His eyes squinted as he tried to understand what exactly was going on. Mark hadn't given him any complaints about his safety and last he spoke to Steven, he was handling the company perfectly. So why then was he not driving his car? Mr. Gilead could tell that something fishy had happened. He pondered if he should ask him about it or just let it go.He watched as the boy took slow steps to his front porch and he moved without saying a word. Few minutes later, he heard a knock on his bedroom door. "Come in," he said silently. "Hello sir. Your nephew is here to see you," his personal servant said. "Tell him I will be down in a minute. Thank you Stephanie." Gilead was still looking out the window when and he didn't bother to turn. He only did that when he heard the door close. He took his sweet time, with the intent that Levi's anxiety level will be high before he went down. He had a good
The auction was held in one of the most luxurious halls in the city. Name of the hall was a sight to behold. Beautiful and elegant with an ambience that could make anyone weak in their knees. Levi arrived in style and then he went into the hall without allowing anyone to sight him. "You know you can't hide forever, right?" Steven told him. "Of course I know that but then again, I have you to ensure that I almost do. Now." "Last time I checked, that wasn't amoimu.jin description so I am going to have to pass on that." "And I thought I had a good manager." Overtime, Levi had gotten close to Steven and he had begun to enjoy his company. He didn't wish for it to be any different. The first person Levi saw when he stepped foot into the hall was Micheal. He was dressed in what he couldn't define as a suit but a white garment that protrayed him as a British ruler. "Who's the one with the weird outfit?" Steven asked. "One I should try to avoid but unfortunately, I can't," Levi said an
"Well I really think you should stop judging a book by it's cover. It brings out no good thing," Michael said. "What are you talking about?" He asked."The same Levi Strauss that you depise so much is actually the president of Cosair Real Estate industry." McCall gasped. He couldn't believe what he had just heard. He was in the same room with the man that could change his life and he treated him with so much disdain. He couldn't help but think about how much he had messed up. "What do you mean he is the president?" Davina asked. She too could not believe the words she had heard."Do you know what the Corsair Real Estate industry is? Do you know that it is one of the...""Most prestigious real estate company in the world!" Michael helped her complete her sentence. "Yes, I am very much aware of that and I am telling you this instance that the company has been trusted to that man you walk around with." "That's posposterous." Davina still couldn't believe it. Levi didn't look rich. E
Duke's uncle looked very furious as he slapped Duke across his face. Duke tirned, terribly confused at what was going on. "Have you lost your stupid mind?! How dare you talk to Levi Strauss that way? How dare you insult him in that manner." His uncle kept saying. Duke did not understand what was happening. His uncle hated the poor. He never wanted to see them anywhere near him and now for some reason, he was being so caring towards Levi. Did he not know who the man really was? Did he not know that the bastard was just a low life brat trying to act like he had something?Duke saw right through Levi's act and he constantly wondered why no one else could. Why was it that no one believed him whenever he told them about how treacherous the man really was? Why did people somehow always pick his side?"Uncle..."Before Duke could even get a word in, his uncle raised his hand and stopped him. "Now you are going to apologize to Levi and you are going to do it well." Duke looked from his unc
Levi walked through a small crowd who stood amazed at what had happened. Everyone knew who Roberto was. Everyone knew that he was not the type of person one messess with but Levi had the audacity to talk to him in a very condescending manner. Everyone was eager to know who he truly was. "Who exactly is this guy?" Most of them asked, eager to make acquittance with the one person that could talk down to Roberto and he didn't move to do anything. "I know right. I also want to know who he is. I mean, for him to talk to a whole Roberto in that manner, then he must be someone very influential and very, very rich and dangerous." "But how come we have never heard of him. If he is all these, then we should have seen or heard about him at some point." The audience was in disarray. Everyone wanted to know more about Levi Strauss but no one did. They all couldn't still believe that he was the one talking. "So who the actual hell is this man?" They all asked."I know who he is." Finally someo
"Levi?" Davina called out, dumbfounded to see him. McCall did not give her any time to soak in what she saw, he held her hand and dragged her to the bar. "Levi, what are you doing here?" She asked again. Levi saw the look in her eyes and knew that she was having a difficult time accepting who he was. He wasn't deaf, he could hear the gossip that went about. He knew that almost everyone knew who he truly was."Well, I believe I am here because of the auction. You look beautiful by the way," he commented. "Thank you. Wait, are you telling me that it's true?""I'm afraid I don't know what you are talking about." "Well, everyone is saying that you are the president of Cosair Real Estate. Is that true?" "Yes. That's true." "Oh God," McCall gasped. "It's such a pleasure to meet you sir. I have looked forward to this day for ages," he took hold of Levi's hand and shaked rigoursly. "Wait a minute, how could you be the president? Last time I checked, you don't even have a car? How then
"We are done with jewelries. Now it's time we started bidding for lands. Ladies and gentlemen, we have a beautiful collection of land in amazing location today. We will start the first one with this land at the government road. Few years ago, it was rumoured that natural resources were gotten from this land and most people believe it till date.""Five hundred thousand dollars." "Do we have another price?" "One million dollars.""Five million dollars," Roberto said from the back and Levi smiled. "And so it begins." He said under his breath. "Ten million dollars!" Levi said and the crowd gasped. "Fifteen million dollars!" Roberto said. Levi couldn't help but notice the pattern he was trying to follow. He couldn't fully get how much the man came with but he knew the range to which he had. "Twenty million dollars," a man from the crowd said. Levi turned to look at who was speaking and he noticed a grey haired man staring back at him with so much contempt. He could tell that the man
The smile on Levi's face was evident. He couldn't believe that his devious plan actually worked. He was expecting Roberto to have caught up with his twisted plan by then. But the fool had played right into his trick and all he had to do now was sit back and win the next land without any stress. Life couldn't get better!Roberto couldn't stop sneering in Levi's direction. The boy was small but he had a cunny mind. He hadn't met an opposition like him before. He wasn't afraid to play dirty. "We can take solace in the fact that we have one land, at least," his assistant said, trying to make lemons from lemonade. "We are not taking solace in such disgusting fact. I came here to win and embarrass that boy and I will do just that." "How do you plan on doing that? We don't have enough money to go up against him and I am sure he still has tons packed in his account for this. How will you possibly win?" His assistant stroke a very good question. Roberto stared at the back hair of Levi thi
