“Good day, Mr. Lincoln. I'm Mr. Henry. I'm calling from France. You may not know me, but I know you and I've read a lot about you on the net.” James said over the phone call.“And…?” Mr. Lincoln said, wondering what the call was about.“I'm interested in securing a deal with you if you are in currently interested in one.”“And how much are we talking about.”“It's a deal that's going to worth a hundred billion dollars within two months. But I'll be investing 30 million dollars first which would be a covering for both of us.”“Meaning I don't have to invest my money, yet?”“Yeah. All I need is to see how great you're going to pull this. Once it turns out great, then there can be more partnership deals for us.” “Whoa. That's… that's remarkable. But… but how do I know this isn't a scam?” Mr. Lincoln asked, squinting his eyes at the absurdity of his wish coming true so quickly and even in an easier way.“Well, we could switch to a video call if you want, and if that's not enough for you,

The employees were taken aback. Why was Charles suddenly annoyed? He had been a little impatient earlier, but not mad. Also the mini-robot had detected it when his mood switched to a sad one."Sir. Um, we'd like to know what made you mad all of a sudden. Did we displease you in any way?" The leader asked, with his hands held in front of him.Charles inhaled, and exhaled, his expression softening, then looked at the robot. He studied it for a while, then nodded. "The mini-robot is good." He commented, but they didn't know if they were to feel good or not. "You're not… you're not angry with us about anything?" The leader asked, still with his hands politely clasped together. "No, that was just a trick. I'm not mad at you for anything. Rather, I'm a little impressed. So, I think this little man can really detect emotions, but it won't last more than five minutes." He informed them, and the leader scratched his neck."Actually, that was… uh…" He began, but didn't know how to complete h

Charles' brows furrowed as he noticed that corruption had been going on since the last time he thoroughly checked through what was going on in the company.Then he assembled the people who were involved and investigated them, questioning them one by one until they confesssed.“I would have decided to arrest you all because I have the power and right to do so, but I'll let you off the hook to learn your lesson, but from now henceforth, I don't want you in this company anymore.” Charles spoke loudly and then rose to his feet.The four men who were involved in the embezzlement all knelt down, begging Charles.“I have spoken and that's how it should play out. If you anger me, I'll have no choice than to send you to jail.” He threatened and then turned to other staffs who were watching.“I know there are still some people like these men here, but I'll adjure you to change now when you still have the chance or your punishment will be worse than theirs.” He warned, and walked out.Vera follo

“And who are you, exactly, Mr. Andrews?” Tyson questioned, sneering at Charles.That was the moment Charles realized that he had overdone himself. Out of anger, he had pushed himself closer to suspicion.Any intelligent person would know that if a poor man could stand up to Tyson to yell if he knows who he was, then he must certainly have something he relies on.Charles lowered his eyes, then moved backwards a little.“I… I apologize, young master. I'm currently having a bad day.”“No, Andrews. Tell me, who are you? That's what I'm interested in.” Tyson questioned again, closing in on him.Right there, Charles’ tongue became crippled of words as he couldn't think of a convincing reason to let himself out of the suspicion zone.“Don't you have ears, Andrews? My son is speaking to you!” Sandra yelled from the dining.Charles glanced at the dining room and noticed that everyone's eyes were now on him. Some of them had this intrigued expression, while some were curious on how this was goi

Charles smiled to himself, unable to hide his excitement. It was the kind of opportunity that made everything fall into place. "Turns out this shelf hasn't been dusted in weeks." He suddenly heard Tyson say, and turned.Tyson was standing by a shelf of books he had seen the maid cleaning a day ago. It was obvious he was doing it on purpose. He opened his mouth to say something about the maid cleaning it, but Tyson suddenly held up a duster. "Dust it." He ordered, staring at Charles expressionlessly. Charles gave a little smile, as that was the only way he could refrain his anger from showing on his face.He walked towards Tyson, and took the duster from him. Very soon, it would be over, and relief would wash over him like a cool shower on a hot summer's day. Charles began to dust the shelf, and the books on it, waiting patiently for the time to clock seven, so they could leave, and he'd begin his work. When he was done cleaning the shelf, he ran some more errands, and was final

"Now this is a big deal." Charles said to himself with a smile, as he brought out his phone from his pocket and took pictures of the illegal drugs.He checked the pictures, and ensured they were bright enough, and couldn't be mistaken for any other thing before zipping up the bag, and returning it back to its place. Then he looked around, ensuring there would be no cause for suspicion. He didn't want them noticing anyone had sneaked into their rooms.He left immediately, walking down the corridor, as fast as he could, and immediately Charles got down the stairs, he sent the pictures of the drugs to the cops, and to James. He got a call from James immediately, and smiled."Did you find all those at Mr. Lincoln's house?" James asked, immediately Charles picked his call."Large amounts of it. They were in Sandra's room to be precise. Although I found some dollar bills covered in cocaine dust in a safe in Mr. Lincoln's room." He answered, pulling the fridge open, and taking water out o

Charles was ushered into an office to wait as the bank manager was on his way to him. While waiting as he sat on the comfy sofa, it occurred to him that he had mistakenly blurted out the truth behind his source of wealth to James, but thankfully, James didn’t notice he had said something weird.He was also carried away by the joyful news Charles shared. Charles breathed out an air of relied through his mouth, and then leaned against the sofa.He checked his watch, and he wasn’t comfortable with time ticking, and all he was doing presently was waiting for the bank manager.James was meant to have traveled to France so as to meet with Mr. Lincoln, but they had arranged another person who looked very similar to the appearance which James disguised in during his video call with Mr. Lincoln.This was the moment Charles needed James the most as things were beginning to work out just the way he had always wanted for son long when he began his revenge on those who treated him wrong.“Good day

“I think he’s being too unprofessional, mother. How would he be given a job, and then unserious about it?” Tyson added, sneering at Charles.“I asked a question, Andrews. And you ought to answer without wasting a time.” Sandra said, looking at him in spite.“I apologize for coming in late, and even as I have something, I need to inform you about, this is the wrong manner and time to tell you that, but it is beyond my power to avoid this.” Charles spoke, without budging at how threatening the Lincoln family looked.“And what is it you have to say?” Sandra questioned as she crossed her legs.“I can’t continue to work here. Due to some things which came up, I have to resign.” Charles informed, and then handed over his resignation letter to them which had been written a long time before he got to work at the Lincoln’s company.Sandra and both her sons were shocked as they weren’t expecting such from him, but for it not to seem like they cared, they decided to hide their shock.“That’s muc

Charles couldn’t get rid of the whole shock immediately. These three seemed like unlikely allies. If someone had predicted that Vera was going to partner up with them in the long run, he wouldn’t have believed.He was lost for words, and the only thing he could do next was to applaud them.“I really don’t get it. How could abducting James be worth all these?” he questioned, finding it difficult to understand how they would think a stupid idea was worth how they waned to get back at him.“Shut the hell up, Charles! You have nothing reasonable to say. We have had what we want, and it feels so good to know you’ve experienced defeat. If you thought you could have a nice life without me in it, then I hope this incidence have taught you that you can never be as big as you want.” Vera said, looking like she could hit him with any sharp object if she was allowed to.Then Tyson pushed James towards Charles. As Charles wanted to bend down to pick James up, Tyson shot him in the leg.“Ahhh!” Cha

The siren blew as they all parked their cars around Charles’ house. They had even called the fire trucks to put out the smoke and fire that had been caused by the explosion.Charles sat at the back of the ambulance as they ran a quick check up on him to be certain he was okay.“You are fine sir. You weren’t affected in any way.” One of the paramedics informed him.“Thanks.” Charles responded in a low tone.Just when he wanted to celebrate one of his biggest wins, this calamity befell him, and worst of all, the man who had abducted James had not gotten back to him, since then.“Mr. Lincoln, do you perhaps know of anyone who might have a grudge on you that could have done this?” One of the cops who walked up to him, questioned him, while holding a note in his hand.“I don’t have an idea. It’s more like I’ve gotten rid of the enemies who let themselves known that they are my enemies. Right now, I have no idea.” Charles spoke, sounding really broken.“Alright, we’ll ensure we get to the r

The next day, Charles woke up to James’ call. He rubbed his eyes, and then managed to sit up as he was feeling very tired. Although, he was meant to wake early today, especially because he had a flight to catch, but his bones were too tired to help him act as sharp as he ought to. As he answered his call, his eyes opened up immediately due to James’ overjoyed tone. “Boss! Boss! We did it! We finally did it!” James voiced out happily.Charles adjusted himself on the bed, and made his feet to touch the ground, wondering what news James had this time that made him to sound this way.“What’s going on?” Charles asked, with his curiosity taking the best of him.“Boss. Mr. Van actually did something great, last night. He told me this morning that he sent an email to Mr. Jayla about our need for vibranium, then he mentioned your name. About an hour after he talked to me about it, I received a response through the company’s email, from Mr. Jayla, expressing his joy that we had actually reac

Charles stepped on the throttle and zoomed off, trying to cut through and ensure no one was going to take up space on the road which he could take advantage of.“If I’m able to drive faster than this, I should get to the nearest hospital very soon.” He thought to himself and then sped up.Fortunately, there was no traffic congestion this time, and the hospital he planned to go to was just right around the next main road.There was just ten minutes left and apart from getting to the hospital, there would obviously be some little process one would have to go through before making payment. Soon, I got to the hospital, and then walked in immediately, heading to the reception.“Good day. Please I’ll like to make payment for any patient who is need of medical attention or anyone who hasn’t been able to make payment.” Charles said to the receptionist.“Alright, sir. We’ll go through the records now. Please kindly have your seat while I make my research.” “No. I need to make an urgent payme

When it was evening, he packed up his bags and was ready to leave for his home when James walked in.“You’re about leaving.” He said, noticing that he had packed up.“Yes. By the way, Mr. Van will be the one to go with me to Paris, and I’ll like to leave you to the company to take care of other things.”“Oh, are you sure about this? You know, you might need someone who you’ve really known, to go with you to another country.” James expressed his concern.Charles understood that he’s more vulnerable in a different country, especially with someone he hasn’t worked with, long enough to know if he had good intentions for him or not.“I understand. But I also need someone with experience, someone I can trust, that can stay back and that’s you. You don’t have to worry too much. Just do fine, here.” Charles spoke.“Alright, boss. I understand. So, are you going to set your eyes on the physical idea which the production team will prepare first, before you leave, tomorrow?” James asked, out of c

When Charles got to his office, he asked to be left alone as he needed to strategize and see how he could make things work.“System, show me how many points I have gathered altogether.” He inquired and waited patiently for the system to show him his points.YOUR POINTS ALL EQUAL TO 15. DO YOU WISH TO USE THEM? YES/NO.Charles tapped his chin lightly, thinking if he can get through with anything with those fifteen points.“Show me the skills I have as options.” He uttered, and focused his eyes on the screen before him.YOU HAVE THE VARIOUS SKILLS OPTIONS AND THE POINTS YOU CAN USE TO GAIN THEM AS WELL ARE AS FOLLOWS: A. FIGHTING SKILLS (15 POINTS) B. MIND READING SKILLS (20 POINTS) C. MARKETING SKILLS (25 POINTS) …Although, Charles was a bit worried with the number of points needed for the various skills and the points that would be needed for the last skill which the system would bring up. But more than that, he was more worried about if the last skill that would be brought up would

“We’ll talk more on this, tomorrow. As for today, you know how sacred it is for me. I won’t be engaging in any work, no matter how pressing it is.” Charles said, standing on his ground.“I understand, boss. It’s noted.” James replied, acknowledging what was more important to Charles, at this moment.They both stayed at the cemetery until it was 6pm.“Alright, it’s time to leave.” Charles urged as he rose to his feet.James also rose to his feet and helped Charles pack up the few things he had set up and then placed it in the car.“Thanks for your help, James. You should go home to rest and then tomorrow, we’ll look into the problem we have. Thanks for your concern again.” Charles appreciated him and then got into his car.James smiled and then walked to his car as well, then got into it and stared the engine immediately Charles drove off.He was glad that Charles was okay and nothing bad had happened to him, but he also hoped that their current problem at work would have a solution.

James tried to call him again, but his phone was still switched off. He rose to his feet, then rushed to his bedroom, preparing to drive out to where Charles was, but he stopped halfway when he got back to the living room.He already had a second thought and which was to be patient. He felt that the information could wait. After all, all he just needed was confirmation if they were to go on with the idea of using vibranium or not.In a situation like this, he was used to reaching out to Vera, but now, he couldn’t. Well, he was going to get used to it, soon. He decided to put a call through to Mr. Van and the reason he decided this was so Mr. Van could get a hang of this work quickly and know what to do in different situations.“Hello, Mr. Van.” He greeted.“Good afternoon, Mr. James.”“I hope you’re getting the hang of things at work?” James asked as he sat on the sofa.“Yes, I am.”“Alright then. I need you to make a research on people who have vibranium in possession.” James instruct

The next day, Charles had had his bath, and was searching through his wardrobe for something simple to wear.Today was his mother's memorial and as usual, he doesn't do anything on that day. He decided to wear a dark suit as that's how it has always been.After dressing up, and ensuring he was leaving nothing behind, he walked out of his room, with his shoes making tapping sounds which echoed as he walked down the stairs leading to his living room."Good morning sir." Martha greeted politely."Good morning." He responded with his hands in his pocket."Here are the flowers you ordered. They came in an hour ago." Martha informed as she handed the bouquet of flowers to him.Charles removed his hand from his pocket and received the flowers, then sniffed the scent in."Smells nice." He spoke as he nodded his head in acknowledgement. "Alright then. Until when I get back home."Charles turned towards the door and then halted before he turned back to her."You should also take the day off." He
