The president looked at Levi,smiling.
Levi smiled with contentment.
"Thank you sir. I knew I could trust you to do the right thing."
"Of course and please next time, don't hesitate to come to me if you have any problems."
"Oh trust me, sir. I won't." Levi smiled, took a bow and left the president's office with happiness in his heart.
He walked slowly back into the classroom and took his seat in the middle of the classroom.
"Hey Levi, I can't believe you are here. Didn't Mr. Robin give you a punishment?" Jake asked as he brushed his dirty blonde hair out of his chiseled face so that he could see clearly with his blue eyes. He was Levi's best friend in school, always the concerned one.
"Yes, I saw him talking to you after the end of the last class and you left very angry. What punishment did he give to you?" Claire asked. Levi looked at her and he still couldn't understand why she would decide to have red hair, especially since her dark brown eyes and her skin tone didn't go with it. But Claire wasn't the type to care. She lived her life as she pleased and no one dictated it for her.
"Oh he threatened me that I won't graduate under his watch because I refused to bribe him when he asked for it," Levi said casually.
"What?!" Claire exclaimed. "Why would the man say a thing like that? That man is just the devil himself, I tell you."
"Oh don't worry about that. He is soon going to be fired," Levi said in a loud voice with confidence. There was dead silence in the room before the entire class burst out in laughter.
"What the hell is this one talking about now?!" One of his classmates said.
"Do you know who Mr. Robin is?! He has been in this school for as long as the school itself. No one wants to fire him and that is why he acts so pompous."
"I know that but I am telling you that the man is about to lose his job."
"Oh Levi, you are just an arrogant fool and that arrogance is going to get you expelled from this school," one of his classmates added.
As soon as she was done, the bell rang and everyone stayed quiet, waiting for the dreaded Mr. Robin to come for his class.
When it was time, the man walked in with an air of confidence.
"Good evening class," he greeted the class and didn't wait for a response from them before he started talking.
"So today, we are going to be speaking..." The man stopped, squeezed his face and said, "Mr. Strauss, I thought I told you to never step foot into my class again."
"No, sir. You actually said that I am not going to graduate from this school unless I bribe you."
Mr. Robin's face became red with embarrassment. "Are you out of your mind?! Why would you say such a thing about me? Get out of my class, you disrespectful fool."
But Levi didn't move an inch. He sat comfortably on his chair and even crossed his legs.
"No, I will not do a thing like that." He loved every moment of the drama.
"I am warning you, Mr. Strauss. If you don't get your ass out of my class right now, I will ensure that all the other lecturers fail you as well."
"Trust me, Mr. Robin, if you try that, I will personally make your life a living hell." Levi stared at,coldly.
"Oh,really? And how will you be able to do that?!" Mr Robin laughed as if he had heard a big joke.
" I give you five minutes to pack out of my class before I throw you out."
Levi finally stood up from his seat.
He went to the front and stood domineeringly above Mr. Robin.
"And I am giving you five seconds to get out of this school before I throw you out."
"Did you hear me?"
"You throw me out?! Really, Levi I..."Before he could complete his sentence, the president's personal assistant came into the classroom. "Mr. Robin," he called out. "What is it?!" Mr. Robin screamed. "The president asked me to come tell you to evacuate the premises." "What?!" He asked and turned to look at him. "What the hell do you mean by that?" "The president fired you this afternoon and he asked me to come and throw you out of the school." "What?!" Mr. Robin asked, shocked. "I will go nowhere! I have worked in this school for years, you cannot kick me out like that." He kept screaming."Security, please come in and take this rascal out of here," the personal assistant said and Mr. Robin was dragged out of the premises. Levi looked at the scene with so much satisfaction. He turned to the class and the look of shock on their faces gave words to what they struggled to say. "Did Levi Strauss really get Mr. Robin fired from his job?" "What just happened?!" Levi's course mat
By this time, Levi was livid and he had gotten fed up with everything that Ethan was doing. "You know what Ethan, you have some nerves to talk to my friend in that manner?! Have you no respect at all?""You know Levi, if I were you, I would shut the hell up." Ethan sneered at him. Levi dug into his pocket, removed $5,000 and threw it at Ethan's face. Ethan looked at the money that fell to the ground and back to Levi's face. "What happened now?! Cat caught your town you little brat?!" Levi shouted. "I'm just wondering when you became a thief. I am also perplexed about who would be dumb enough to allow you to steal from them?" "That's enough!" A tiny voice screamed. It belongs to Brittany, the most beautiful girl in the class. "Ethan, we have all stood here and watched you humiliate everyone here and that's enough. I think you need to apologize to them." "Really?" Ethan's eyes widened in disbelief. "And who is going to make me?! You this Barbie doll?!"Brittany gasped. "Oh were
"Don't you think this place is too expensive? I mean, just look at the surroundings. It's...""It's exactly the kind of place we should be dining in. Can you please stop worrying?" Levi added and watched as Jake gave out a sigh. "Waiter," Levi beckoned on one of the staff. "Good evening sir." "Good evening, fine man. We are ready to order." "Okay, here is the menu," he said and handed the menu over to Levi. Levi took a glance at it and said, "I will get the Tomato Bruschetta on your starter pack. And my friend will get Caesar Salad. After the starter pack, I will have Grilled Salmon with Dill Sauce and please, can that come with a piece of lime?" He paused to ask the waiter. "Yes sir. I can tell the chef to include that.""Alright, that will be perfect. So I will get the Grilled Salmon for the main course of the meal and my friend will have Roast Beef with Vegetables. And for desserts, just bring us your Lemon Meringue Pie. Please bring a nice bottle of white wine. You look like
"I asked a question. Who are you and what do you want from us?" Still no one responded. "Who are you people working for?!" He asked again and still, no one responded. "I said...?" Before he could finish talking, one of the men, blessed with dirty blonde hair, slapped him across the face with the back of his gun. "Shut the fuck up!" He screamed and watched with no remorse as Levi coughed out blood. "Look," Levi spoke as his face was on the ground. "Whatever you are being paid, I will double it. Just tell me who your employer is."Again, he got no reply but the blonde haired man went back to his seat and Levi managed to get back to a sitting position. "Okay, I'll triple it," he said and saw as a man with dark black hair looked at him with interest in his eyes. He immediately knew that he had to ride on that. "Quadruple." "Are you serious about that?" The man asked. "Of course I am. Just tell me who your employer is and I will do the transfer.""We are being paid in dollars, yo
"It's not a blind date. I have seen her before and she is just lovely." "Is she?" Levi asked. To be honest,he’s not interested in dating a new girl now,but he didn’t want to disappoint his friend either,so he just nodded. "Okay. I will join you later," As they walked past, a few students gathered together, discussing something excitedly. "I heard that a mysterious student donated a huge amount of money to the school." "Really? How much?" The other student asked shocked "I heard it was about two million dollars." "Holy! That is a lot of money! I wonder who it could be?" “Hell,Levi. You heard that? Two million?! Why’s there no one who’d like to donate some money to me?” Jake widened his eyes and sighed,shaking his head.Levi smiled as he walked past them. He wondered what they’d say if they found he was that mysterious guy.***The evening breeze proved that it was a cold night. The type of night that he loved."Shit!" Levi exclaimed when he looked at the time. It was eight o'cl
"Are you an idiot?!"Susan burst out laughter and so did everyone around. "How did that man who is dressed so locally get such a beautiful car?" Passerby said and laughed more. "You can't just stop lying, can you?" Susan asked. "You really can't just stop lying. Trust me, you are not deceiving anyone. No one here believes you."Levi didn't have time to argue with her anymore. He simply brought out his key, pointed it at the car, pressed on the on button and the headlights of the car flashed its beautiful light. This action caused everyone around him to gasp. No one could believe that the car was truly his and Levi enjoyed seeing the shocked look on their faces. Immediately, Susan came to him with fake smiles. "Levi, so the car is truly yours?!" She asked as she started to slowly stroke his arms. "I have always known that you were not ordinary. I could tell that there was something about you. Something special!" "Oh is that so?!" Levi asked with a look of disgust on his face. It
Levi stood at the balcony of his new apartment and overlooked the city. He's in a good mood and decided to invite Jake for dinner to share his joy.The answer was a yes without any hesitation. "Should I come pick you up?" He smiled"Yep. I don't have the strength to use a public transport system when I have a millionaire as a best friend.". Levi laughed and ended the call. It didn't take long before he was at Jake's door. Jake came out wearing blue jeans and a white polo that showed his muscular body and they drove off to the restaurant. "I think I want to start with something light," Levi said as he went through the menu. "I'll just get whatever it is you're getting." "You know, you will have to start learning how to order meals," Levi said as he was going through the menu. "Yeah, I will learn that later." Levi ordered their food and it didn't take long for the waiters to bring it to them. "Okay, come on. Spill it," Levi said as he was halfway through his meal. "What
"Excuse me ma'am," the waiter drew the woman's attention. "Yes," she responded. "Did you really say that you will pay for this young man's bill? It's a lot of ma," he tried to warn her. The woman turned fully towards the waiter to look at him. "Take a good look at me, young man. Do I look like a woman who cannot afford this bill?" "No ma'am, you don't," the waiter said fearfully. "How much is it?" She asked "It's $2,000 ma'am." The woman brought out her phone and Levi watched in amazement as she quickly transferred the money with the bill for hers to the restaurant. "Have you gotten it now?" She asked the waiter. She did not care much for him and it showed on her face. She could tell that he doubted if she would be able to pay for the bill because she was a lady and it made her so angry. "Yes ma'am, I have." "Okay, you can leave now," she said and watched happily as the waiter walked away with his head held low and then she turned to face Levi. "Thank you so much
"So are you ready for it?" Gilead said as he approached Levi. "Yes uncle. I believe I am." "You must know how proud I am of you. You do know that right?" "Yes I do." Levi did not care of he was just father or his uncle. Since he came back into his life he has always treated him like his own son. He cared for him, gave him a bodyguard when people threatened his life. He did everything for him and never wanted to stop. He was more than happy that the man was just in his life and he did not care if he lied about being his uncle. "We should start going if we don't want to be late.""Yes. You are absolutely correct." Levi said. "Thank you for everything you have done for me, thank you." He said and walked away, heading straight to Brittany's room. "Did you ask him?" She asked when he got there but Levi could not answer. He was too mesmerized by the beauty standing in front of him. Everyday he saw new beautiful features in her and always asked himself how he ever got so lucky. "You lo
"Do you think that will work?" Levi asked. "It has to work because if that bastard does anything to my mother, I promise you it will be the last thing because I will use my own hands to kill him." "Okay, you just need to calm down now. I'm sure he will be able to..." Levi did not finish his statement when Brittany got another call. "Who is that?" Levi asked. "I don't know. Let me answer?" She said and picked the call. "Hello," Davina's voice was heard from the other side. "Davina." "I'm glad you already know who I am. Meaning that I don't need to do any sort of introduction, right?"."I'm guessing Henry gave you my number, isn't that right?" "Now now miss, it's not good to address your own father by his first name. That is disrespectful." "When that same father kidnaps my mother and wants to use her for randsom, I will do whatever the hell I want to." "Oh that is hardly kidnapping. What we are about to do will benefit you as well, you know." "How will lying to Levi to steal
"What? Today?" She asked. "Why?" "Well the company is having a party today and my uncle wants to use that opportunity and transfer the company and everything it holds to me. So you see, if we don't do this before that time, unfortunately, we may not be able to get what we want from this plan." "Wow, babe that's wonderful news. Congratulations!" Brittany said and ran to hug him. "Thank you but you did hear the other things I said right. We need to get this correct if not, it will not be funny." "Yes I hear you. I understand everything that you are saying. But I still think the time is too short. Don't you think she will notice and if she does and eventually finds out what we are trying to do, you know that every plan we have will be ruined like that. I honestly don't think we should do this." "We have no other option. It's either we do this now or we forget about it totally. Look, babe I believe in you. I know you can convince her. You just need to try and give it your all." "I h
Levi got home late because they had to stop by and get dinner. By the time he arrived, his uncle was already fast asleep. The young man walked into his home and slept peacefully with his woman till the next morning. As the sun rose, so did Levi but when he turned, he realized that Brittany was no where to be found. He turned around on his bed and saw a note beside him."Hi, baby. If you wake up before I am done, just know that I am in the kitchen cooking." He smiled when he finished reading the message and he proceeded to move to his kitchen. He was not able to make it because his uncle was waiting for him in the palour.."Is everything alright uncle?" He asked from the way the man stared at him. "You walked out on me yesterday. And you are yet to apologize." "I am so sorry sir. It's just that Brittany was in danger and I had to go save her." "I know. Jake told me everything. Listen to me. It does not matter how upset you are. You should never hold a woman the way you did yesterd
"What?!" Officer Joseph shouted. "Sir you can't fire me." He said"But I just did. Young man, you made an illegal arrest and you did not even go there with your partner because you know that he would have called you out on your bullshit. No, you decided to go with a rookie who would not agrue with anything you did. Not only did you not just defame the law, you made a fool of it and I will not tolerate any sort of nonsense in my force." "But sir. I was just...""If you say you were doing your job one more time, I promise you I will have you locked up." "Sir, if I may," Levi said as he pulled himself upward from his chair. "What could that be sir?" "Sir, I would love it if officer Joseph here could tell us exactly what it is that he did to ensure that he had strong evidence to back up his claims." "What?" Officer Joseph said in shock. "Well, you keep saying that you were only doing your job so now I want to know, what exactly did you use as evidence to arrest my woman with? Becau
"Okay, I don't really care about all these nonsense. I just want Brittany to be released. Can you guys please just do that before you think of what to do to this riff raff?" Levi said angrily. "Oh certainly sir." Jayden said but before he could move, he stopped when his name was called. "Officer Jayden, the commissioner is around and he is requesting to see you." "Okay, thank you." "Oh I see that the commissioner is around. Release Brittany and we will all go see him together." Levi said. "The commissioner?" Officer Joseph said, shaking. He was slowly realizing what he had gotten himself into. "Yes, the commissioner. Oh are you shaking right now. Please don't shake. After all, I can't do anything to hurt you neither can I even fire you. So don't worry, you are definitely in safe hands." Levi said mockingly and walked away to meet Brittany as she walked out of the cell that Jayden was opening. Jayden opened the cell immediately and Brittany ran out. She hugged him tightly, scare
Levi got to the station before the commissioner did and immediately he got there he walked hastily into the station. He did not say a word to anyone because he knew the station well enough. It was the same place Davina had stayed when he got her arrested.The man walked straight, ignoring all calls from other police men till he was eventually stopped by one. "Sir, you can't go back there. That is where we keep the criminal," the young man said while holding him. "Sir, first of all, you will need to tell me who you want to see and then I will be the one to either allow you to meet this person or not." Levi stood without talking, waiting for him to be done with whatever he was saying. "So sir, what I am saying is that you will have to come with me and give me information as to why you are here," the man explained again, thinking that Levi did not understand him the first time. "Oh don't worry Dave, I know exactly who he is here to see," beside him, Levi heard the voice that he was
"Levi Strauss!" The voice of his uncle brought him back to reality as he looked and saw that the man was boiling with anger. "Uncle," he said. "Have you gone out of your mind?" The man screamed. "When did you start holidng women by their necks and trying to kill them?" He said angrily. Levi looked at him. He did not know if Davina was lying when she said that he was his father. And he did not care to know..all he knew was that he was angry, boiling with anger and having him around was not going to solve his problem or make Brittany to be released from jail. Angrily he left the scene and ran upstairs. "Levi! Come back here!" He ordered but the young man was far gone. His uncle stood there in shock. He did not understand what was happening but he knew that he had never seen Levi is a disrespectful child and for him to walk out on him when he was talking was something he never thought the man would do. "What the hell has gotten into that boy? Is it me that he just ran away from?" H
"Please take her away!" The leader said. "Take your hands off her I say!" Levi said angrily and almost bounced on the man. The cocking of a gun by the leader brought him to an halt. He turned around to see the man holding a gun in her hand. "Step away from my partner or I promise you that I will shoot." "You actually have the audacity to point a gun at me?" Levi asked, his eyes turning red. "Levi!" Brittany shouted. "Levi, look at me!" She said, her hands behind her back, drawing Levi's attention to her. "Take care of my mom while I am gone and get me out of this as soon as you can." She said while being dragged out. "I won't let you spend up to an hour in there." He shouted as he watched her being lowered into the back of the police van and driven away. As the car zoomed off, Levi turned to Ivy. "You have the audacity to bring police officers into my home to arrest my woman." He said silently, taking slow steps towards her. "I had to do what I did for us!" Ivy said, not sca
