The Emergence of Raphael Gauthier CHAPTER 11: A TIP OF THE ICEBERG
“We're sorry Sir. You didn't deserve such disdainful humiliation for being innocent. We're sorry for not inquiring about what truly occurred that very day,” some of the guests who were still baffled by what had transpired reached out to Raphael with earnest apologies. Raphael inhaled and exhaled deeply in calmness and nodded his head in response to their pleas. He vehemently stared into their faces and beheld sincere beings who regretted not doing the civil endeavors to protect him from schemers. The staff and management in the restaurant all quickly gazed downward in shame. They couldn't afford to stare deep into the eyes of the man they all presumed was poor and did nothing when he was falsely alleged a thief. What could they possibly have done? The atmosphere was still engrossed with the shock of the abrupt revelation of Raphael's wealth. Who could have thought that the once so-called ex-Room service agent would own the same five-star hotel? Does it make sense? Raphael didn't
The Emergence of Raphael Gauthier CHAPTER 12: MORE TIPS OF THE ICEBERG
Mr Laurent sadly fell against the stone floor. His eyes were engrossed with a tinge of sadness and anger. He smirked at the fate of his family and all he could perceive was the worst ever scenario.Laurent Moreau and his wife Emma had managed the hotel for over a decade and have gained prestigious grounds from notable personalities across different provinces in Paris. Suddenly they've lost their jobs through their despised ex-son-in-inlaw?“Dad? Mum? Which Rapahel are you all talking about?” Chloe finally questioned. Since those words fell from her father's mouth she had wished it had better not be what she was thinking about.“Which Raphael! Huh?” she vigorously inquired once again, striving all she could not to lose her mind.“The…” Laurent was about to respond before his wife quickly waved at him to give her the honor of spilling the facts out clearly for their daughter.Mrs. Emma breathed out more mucus from her nostrils and wiped them off with the handkerchief she had with her.“
The Emergence of Raphael Gauthier CHAPTER 13: SORROW! SORROW!
Laurent dumbfoundedly stared at his wife who in response gazed at Chloe. It pretty much seems like one of those Hollywood film tricks. Mr Leo gotta be kidding so they presumed in their hearts.The senior butler gently ambled from the flashy whip and parted the back seat door open for the man who was about to place Moreau's family where they right belonged.Raphael majestically leaned towards the car door and calmly thudded his right foot against the stone floor. He quickly wore his sunglasses well befitting with his choice of attire that very day.He intentionally cleared up his throat in contempt and pulled forth his other foot at where it should be. His chest swiftly out, his shoulders slightly up before he sauntered towards his ex-family in-laws' presence.Chloe uncontrollably had her mouth widened right from the moment she set her alluring eyes on Raphael. The same man whom she dumped and chose his younger stepbrother instead. Pathetic!The words from her parents were vehemently b
The Emergence of Raphael Gauthier CHAPTER 14: SORROW! MORE SORROW!
Raphael headed into his first acquired property to supervise the vigorous removal of The Moreau's properties into the streets where he vehemently needed them to be.“Get every piece that belongs to them and have it all removed. I don't need to see a material of theirs in my mansion,” Raphael stated his words clearly. He sauntered back and forth the living and beheld Moreau's possessions being thrown on the street.Laurent, Emma, and their daughter; Chloe had sprinted into the living room with their necks squeezed to vigorously plead for forgiveness in the hope that mercy would find them.It pretty much seems like the more they cry out for help the tendency of Raphael intensifying his revenge against them keeps burning mercilessly.The screams of pain from Laurent, Emma, and Chloe got the attention of the neighbors as some hastened to their balconies to deduce what was unfolding.The sight of their properties being thrown at the roadside was most humiliating. It also got the attention
The Emergence of Raphael Gauthier CHAPTER 15: THE MOREAU'S FRUSTRATION
Laurent, Emma, and Chloe hopelessly glanced as Raphael shut the gate before their teary eyes. It was crystal clear that Raphael had got some financial weight to pull up such a humiliating stunt against them.Raphael isn't done yet! He's got a lot in stock for them.Just when Emma and Laurent thought escaping from Stamford luxury and suites would save them from being pursued by Raphael. They didn't know he was unleashing his revenge right under their noses.The thought of having nothing to hold back on was driving them insane. All this while Raphael lived under their acclaimed roof, he's cognizant of all their business deals and contacts.The mistreated so-called pauper they have despised for half a decade has come back to hurt them right where they can't escape from. Terrible!Emma glanced at their disarrayed properties on the floor beside the gate and wondered if crying would make Raphael have a change of heart or influence the sympathy of the passersby who had kept their eyes fixed
The Emergence of Raphael Gauthier CHAPTER 16: THE LOAN HEARTACHE
Laurent promptly ordered whilst sprinting to intercept his daughter's audaciously intended hit against Emma.“Shit!” voices from the neighborhood echoed. “She nearly slapped her mum huh?” they continually mouthed in disbelief.Laurent shockingly stared at his wife; Emma, whose face was squeezed in a reflection to dodge her daughter's hit against her. Raphael wasn't far-fetched. He had headed to the royal bedroom which his ex-family in-laws once occupied and fed his eyes with Moreau's frustration.Despite the fact he enjoyed every moment of chaos occurring in their midst he was still baffled that Chloe could ever attempt to hit her mum. Like Chloe? Same girl who has been calm despite her parent's incessant reasons to have her divorce him.But finally, she gave in and did as planned. Would Chloe be vehemently blamed for falling into her parents' will? Or did her parents wish for her best in their staunch pursuit to have Raphael divorced?Emma's eyes darkened in disgust at Chloe's attemp
The Emergence of Raphael Gauthier CHAPTER 17: THE MOREAU'S ORDEAL
The answers she uncontrollably sought were right beneath her very eyes but questions needed to be asked to avoid being misconstrued.“Dad… answer right away,” she requested further after struggling to mouth her words.Whatever reason for keeping Chloe in the dark on the loan request was secondary. The primary course was to get answers as to what befalls her parents would vehemently affect her as well.“Honey. Sorry, we didn't inform you earlier about taking a loan from Rowish Atlantic Bank of Paris…” Laurent deemed it responsible to divulge facts straight to her but before he fully responded, Chloe was already shaking her head in utmost displeasure.Laurent took five steps from where he originally stood in an attempt to rest his right fingers on Chleo's shoulder but she angrily stepped downward. Her face echoed; “Disappointment” Possibly it wouldn't be wrong to connote that her parents had ruined a large part of her life, huh?“Chloe please just listen to me,” his father maintained, s
The Emergence of Raphael Gauthier CHAPTER 18: TWICE BEATEN ALWAYS BEATEN!
It was already a day highly decorated with Moreau family's humiliation. Raphael needed to temporarily put on hold his disguise mission on The Lion Winery Industries to unleash his revenge on Laurent, Emma, Chloe, and others who have joined the host in his revenge book.His grandfather didn't utter any words to derail him from his revenge quests against his ex-family in-laws because he understood how his grandson's heart was vehemently made up.“Are those just the figures?” Raphael re-emphasized for the sake of clarity before he decided on his next course of action.The two bankers stole glances at each other in response to Raphael who was repeatedly calling a huge figure “Just” If by any means Raphael opted to buy off the landed property it would become the best sales they'd had since the month began.Laurent cried deeply in his heart. Raphael could have humiliated him and his household all day but he persistently prayed in his heart that he wouldn't go ahead in purchasing those prope

“In the course of the investigation, the president of France and other ambassadors from five South American countries got involved when they learned the esteemed Grand Lord, Raphael Gauthier, was also in the contest with The Ultimate Branded Champagne.”“I’m here to announce to y'all that we've acquired implicating evidence that over the last half a decade, Alexandre Petit has continually connived with twenty high-ranked staff of the European Winery Exhibition Contest to condemn justice and fairness, which has made him the winner in consecutive occasions!”The crowd slammed their voices in anger as they booed at Alexandre Petit with disdainful tongues.“In this year's edition, he had an accomplice by the name of Lucas Moreau, months back in agreement, they attempted to assassinate Raphael Gauthier and his stepbrother, Hugo Lambert.

CHAPTER 195: THE CONFESSION
“I don't care if I die the next minute or get arrested and pay for my crimes. As long as I divulge what has been hidden for decades, then my part has been done,” Hugo mouthed with a short gasp breath, his face gripped with sweat as he held onto his step-older brother.All along, Raphael had presumed his younger stepbrother was bluffing about having information to spill. It seemed like he had finally gotten his attention.“Really? You got any information?” his brows raised in keenness.Agathe waved at the medical personnel who sheepishly departed from the room. They had already overstayed. It's family time!“Yes, I do, dear brother…”“I know none of my words would change the past and the evil I've done to you, which led to the death of your mother, banishment, and many others, including sleeping with your ex-wife,” he spilled those hard words out. And once again, the ugly past flashed before Raphael’s face.Agathe strode towards him and patted his shoulder; she understood how painful i

CHAPTER 194: A DRY COUGH: A NEW BREATH
For the greater good of his power and what it believes in, Hugo Lambert should be saved by his older stepbrother despite the pains he has inflicted. GrandLord Raphael Gauthier, in a state of pain and anger, understood that and had to do the needful.‘Hugo you've fought so hard against death. Time to come back to us,’ GrandLord Raphael Gauthier communioned with the deteriorated state of Hugo Lambert.He believed he could hear his words. One of the containers had a well-prepared honey with herbal ointment in it as his inner power whispered what he should do.Agathe Lambert muttered a thousand prayers in her heart as her hands shook in fear. She might not be a great fan of Hugo from inception but she wouldn't want him dead either. The medical personnel stood in disorientation as they beheld the unprecedented movie being played before their eyes.GrandLord Raphael Gauthier signaled Agathe Lambert, who assisted in slightly opening Hugo's mouth to enable him to pour the herbal medicine insi

CHAPTER 193: A FLASH OF THE PAST
Agathe Lambert was struck in a state of slight confusion and vibrantness. She quickly strode towards where Hugo Lambert had laid for over a week as his health deteriorated. The medical renowned doctors followed behind to witness what would unfold sooner.It wasn't a pretense that the medical experts had little or no hope of what the GrandLord could do differently. They engaged in indistinct communication amongst themselves while their faces were etched with doubts, disbelief, and slight confusion.Grand Lord Raphael Gauthier stood face to face before his stepbrother. He exhaled deeply with his eyes intentionally closed while he trailed his oil-soaked right finger on his chest towards his abdomen back to his chest and throat.Agathe Lambert instantly wondered what Raphael's right finger was doing on Hugo's chest. She somewhat feared that he might want to avenge what happened to his late mother. The medical personnel maintained their indistinct conversations with their heads and eye gou

CHAPTER 192: HE’S HERE!
She knew GrandLord Raphael Gauthier was quite an intentional human and wouldn't mouth those unexpected words if he didn't mean them. Nonetheless, she couldn't control how astonished she seemed.For a moment she gave up on GrandLord Raphael Gauthier ever believing her about Hugo Lambert or what he had to tell him. She believed the past ugly incident would cloud his judgment on believing her.“The more time we waste the less chance he has to survive the poison,” GrandLord Raphael Gauthier quickly spoke out.He promptly offered Agathe Lambert his right hand as an aid to lift herself off the ground. He went ahead and offered her a white handkerchief to wipe off her tears while she made efforts to stand.The driver had his mouth slightly opened at how he thought he'd soon head back to the mansion or the office. However, his boss had other plans for the day.“Why the sudden change of heart? I could swear you would have zoomed off without looking back,” Agathe Lambert hinted as her eyes popp

CHAPTER 191: RECONSIDERATION
He tutted his lips even more in disagreement and displeasure with his lips curved in disbelief and contempt. He shook his head more often while anticipating what Agathe Lambert would say next.She wasn't making any single sense with her words about Hugo Lambert's poisoned state and his request to speak with him. Agathe Lambert temporarily went speechless while glancing at him and other gatekeepers who could grasp the building conversations.“Drop this trick to get me to heal him 'cause that's not happening. He caused the death of my mother. You wasted your time in making me come over,” GrandLord Raphael Gauthier blurted out while taking a step backward.He felt there were no more words left unsaid with his younger step-sister and got to head back to the mansion or, better still, see how Pierre was handling business in his absence.It was better than being at the wrong time at the wrongest time. Driving from the mansion on Agathe Lambert's request seemed like a waste of time.“Good day

CHAPTER 190: HE GOT SOMETHING TO SAY?
“Several medical professionals have conducted several diagnoses, but he's none responsive to their treatments,” Agathe Lambert, after a few moments, uttered more words to establish clarity.She had anticipated to bark at her immediately when she uttered the last words or even an immediate response which he didn't. Hence, she had to delve back to words that would build stamina to whatever his thought organs were entertaining.GrandLord Raphael Gauthier intentionally kept mute and steadily set his sight on her believing she got more words unspilled. His eyebrows were raised more with his two hands placed across his waist while trying to make sense of where Agathe Lambert was driving.“Hugo?” he somewhat mouthed with his eyes blinking. “Poisoned?” His last words followed with a question. “By who?” GrandLord Raphael Gauthier promptly inquired with a somewhat calmer tone. “When?” he went further in striding towards the path of questions.Questions engrossed in inquiries which was all Grand

CHAPTER 189: AGATHE'S SKEPTICISM
GrandLord Raphael Gauthier hastily mouthed with his eyebrows raised in building annoyance. He kept his sight steadily on Agathe Lambert striving to make meaning to her last statement. He knew she wasn't joking but needed a form of clarity in her speech.Agathe Lambert vividly remembered all that transpired between Grandlord Raphael Gauthier and Hugo and should be the last person to make such statements when the GrandLord is concerned.Agathe Lambert was somewhat confused about what to respond with as her gaze quickly dropped off. She reactively took two steps backward in perplexed thoughts. GrandLord Raphael Gauthier was swift enough to understand his younger step-sister's last action. He positioned his hand in an akimbo posture while still glaring at her.“I left my mansion for Hugo? That betrayer? You're kidding huh?” GrandLord Raphael Gauthier mouthed once more but his voice heightened this time.Still maintaining his body posture, he took one step forward in search of a response f
