The Emergence of Raphael Gauthier CHAPTER 54: ANOTHER SEARCH
For some peculiar reasons, Raphael hardly communicates with his buddies whilst away from work.He believes he will likely blow his cover and they could insist on visiting him on any of the free working days. But that shouldn't stay longer like forever.If everything seems the way it's become. Celine and Pierre would know sooner enough. This time during his profound emergence.Raphael didn't hesitate but indulged the chief of the police department in every progress he'd made thus far on bringing Mrs Elise and her family cohorts down.In the COP's words; “Raphael. You're extraordinary.” He has been quite pleased with his efforts thus far and would be behind him whenever he chooses to strike.But Raphael had resorted not to do the needful until he did one thing!He maintained he must discover the embezzlement documents hidden by Mrs Elise that showcase her signature and cohort.The documents Benoit got from Mrs Louise have the names of all her accomplices except hers.It's crystal clear
The Emergence of Raphael Gauthier CHAPTER 55: STUCK!
Blaise's hands started shaking profusely. It was a big challenge for the search mission. He quickly informed Raphael, Celine, and Pierre of the immediate challenge. Celine's knee buckled in profound fear. She was barely herself as she snaked her hands around her neck. “Trouble!”Pierre seemed calmer and stood on his own in deep prayer.Raphael smirked in his heart as he knew what he'd gotten himself into. Damn! A new message dropped; “Chevalier you got a minute to get out from there. She's almost there,” Blaise distinctly stated with hope Raphael would be able to make it in time before Mrs Elise closed in.Raphael was engrossed in several complicated thoughts and had no time to think but act! The revealed man's words were becoming more outstanding.Should he sprint off from the office and save the search mission till another day? Or should he stay back and continue searching with the unavoidable option of encountering the SHE DEVIL for the second time? Even if he happened to escape f
The Emergence of Raphael Gauthier CHAPTER 56: TRAPPED!
Raphael receded his footsteps back to the entrance door to deduce if Mrs. Elise could still be in her office or had left for the management meeting.He could slightly hear paper rusting which indicates she could be reading through a particular document.‘Wouldn't she head for the management meeting huh? Gosh! I'd need to communicate to Celine, Blaise, and Pierre,’ Raphael couldn't help but mutter inwardly. He perceived they were deeply worried given the fact they wouldn't outrightly comprehend what could be unfolding in Mrs Elise's office.Raphael didn't have a choice if he had extra time he could have divulged his whereabouts to them. Now he's trapped in Elise's secret room without a clue on how to escape without breaking a serious security breach.Raphael had already exhausted the ten-minute time which meant he would be completely exposed if he managed to make it out of the inner room which was likely impossible because the cheat unlock code had expired and if used again would trigg
The Emergence of Raphael Gauthier CHAPTER 57: HE FOUND IT!
The management meeting hardly exceeded more than one hour which connotes Blaise and Raphael had about thirty minutes more to figure out how to leave the HR manager's office with the embezzlement proof documents without being detected.Raphael ambled passed the first set of champagne placed on the well-tiled floor in search of any documents. He believed there was a reason why he got trapped in the inner room and would have to discover that in less time.Blaise, who hadn't been at ease since Raphael opted to stay back in the HR office, tried to maintain a calm gesture in order not to trigger any suspicion from his co-colleagues.He headed to the media powerhouse where the databases were all stored to figure out how to deactivate the CCTV camera further after the first attempt without attracting attention.Also, without the cheat unlock code, deactivating the CCTV would all be for a waste as such would make Raphael exposed. This goes in tandem with the popular expression that opined: “Ne
The Emergence of Raphael Gauthier CHAPTER 58: THE TEAM
Raphael's voice sent goosebumps across their shoulders. They stood at one spot in disbelief.Their eyes dance in profound awe. Celine wished not to be told Ralphael we mistaken just like she was the previous Wednesday.“Chevalier? You said what?” Pierre asked with his heart lifting in joy.“You're certain about those documents?” Celine finally gutted what had been on her mind all this while.Raphael instead of responding to their question burst into deep laughter and fell against the floor in relief. Celine and Pierre joined him in the happy quest and the atmosphere was engrossed with excitement.What a day!Celine was striving to control her breathing pace as she chuckled so hard. Tears gradually shimmered down her silky cheeks and found their way across her mouth and held up on her chin.Pierre stood and glanced at her as she expressed her undeniable emotions. Just when she gave up.Raphael made her realize it wasn't over yet. Pierre managed to gently hold her towards his embodied c
The Emergence of Raphael Gauthier CHAPTER 59: ONE MORE TRUST!
“What the hell are you all spilling? A board meeting is ongoing? And most of the staff have been called upon?” Mrs Elise confusingly inquired with her eyelid blinking for prompt answers.She inhaled and exhaled in more confusion with hitch breathing, her right palm on her waist with her eyes narrowed in thoughts. “This meeting is happening right now at Hall 3? It was scheduled ten minutes ago this morning? Are you all joking with me?”“This must be some sort of Wednesday early morning joke. What? Like you all seemed serious right now?” she continually questioned whilst she fixed her gaze on her family cohorts.Mrs Louise who had been making efforts to respond to Elise's incessant questions opted in clearing her throat. Mr Josue; the Account officer had been dumbfounded for over five minutes and wasn't in the right state of mind to proffer answers to any asked questions.Mr Chase; the inventory officer wasn't taken out of the ongoing confused drama. He had just resumed work only to beh
The Emergence of Raphael Gauthier CHAPTER 60: TEAM ALLIES
{FLASHBACK_38 HOURS EARLIER_} Raphael finally got to The Lion Winery Industries entrance gate after he successfully navigated from the basement floor with the evidence still intact in his work bag.He calmly turned and stole a little glance at the company and he breathed out in relief while feeling the ambience of the atmosphere.He vividly remembered the first day he set foot on his grandfather's company with a plan and it pretty much seemed like the essence of the disguise mission would soon yield productivity.As usual, he ensured footsteps weren't trailing him when he completely exited from the residence. His mind was on the next play of action.A certain luxurious car gently drove and halted in front of him. Raphael narrowed his eyes and stared at the driver's seat.“Hop in,” he calmly instructed.Raphael didn't hesitate but obliged and headed to the front seat. Wondering who the driver was? Could it be Benoit?After that, Ralphael convinced his allies to believe in him once aga
The Emergence of Raphael Gauthier CHAPTER 61: EYES ON FOUR
{_PRESENT TIME_}Mrs Louise, Mr. Chase, and Mr. Josue sauntered further to have their seats. They haven't met the founder for a long time. They suspended the uncontrollable questions in their hearts and did as being told; “Sit Down”Mrs Elise slightly sighed and continuously rolled her eyes in anticipation whilst heading to the seat. She felt uneasy and had a weird feeling about the impromptu meeting.Most Staff and Management of The Lion King Winery Industries were inarguably seated.Some couldn't drop off their bags at their respective units that morning. They quickly got notified of the meeting accompanied by the unexpected presence of Jacques Claude Gauthier.Jacques Claude Gauthier was seated beside the staff. He ensured his eyes would be on the well-fixed screen projector.The media department had exhausted over ten minutes in preparing the necessary projecting materials at the same time Mrs Elise and her cohort were contemplating the unverified purpose of the meeting.Celine, B

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
