The Formidable Luthan King Is Back chapter 1
Three years ago, Luthan King had returned home from prison, hoping to be received warmly by his family, especially his younger brother, Arthur, whom he had gone to jail for. Yet, he was met with harsh gazes and cruelty. “Luthan?” Camille, his wife, who was now heavily pregnant with his brother's child, exclaimed, face white as a sheet. “What are you doing here?”Luthan's eyes remained fixed on her protruding stomach, eyes widening in shock. “You're pregnant?” He exclaimed, raising his voice in exclamation. Camille staggered back in shock, unable to meet his eyes. “Honey who was…” Arthur, his younger brother, paused by the stairs, shocked to see Luthan in the mansion. “Aren't you supposed to be in prison?”Luthan was at a loss for words, overwhelmed with emotion. Seven years in prison and he had returned to a pregnant wife and a brother who seemed irritated by his presence. “You haven't answered my question, Luthan. What is an ex-convict doing in the prestigious Kings mansion?” Ar

Luthan's fury was evident on his face after hearing those words. He knew that the Lynns never accepted Mary as part of their family but selling her off was just too much. He didn't know much about the Carters but one thing was certain. He was going to her back tonight.The Carters were currently hosting a big celebration. It was Lionel Carter’s birthday and as the eldest member of the family, it was a high-end event and strictly on invitation.The family had a net worth of roughly eighty million dollars, and as such, the invite was closed to anyone below the benchmark of twenty million dollars.All the influential families were present at this event, including the Kings. On arrival at the hotel, the guards got the door and Luthan stepped out. His eyes scanned the hotel briefly. He couldn't remember the last time he had been to such a cheap hotel but he wasn't there to stay. The plan was to retrieve Mary and leave.His Porsche had already attracted the attention of the guests, as m

Everyone present in the event centre stared at this man who just walked in. No one knew his name or even saw his face on the papers except Arthur, of course.He stomped over to Luthan and grabbed his shirt. “What are you doing here? Are you trying to embarrass me here? How did you even get in?” Arthur demanded.Luthan merely stared coldly at him while his guards tore Arthur away from him. Lionel Carter was displeased with the distraction. His guard rolled him in his wheelchair to the centre of the room. “That's enough!” He stated. This is my birthday, and you don't get to act however you please. Young man, who are you?”Kimberly stepped forward. “Father, he just sent twenty million dollars to our family account as a birthday gift to you,” She announced. Gasps erupted from the halls.“That is simply ridiculous!” Lionel exclaimed but Kimberly showed him the alert on her phone. The guests mumbled amongst themselves. Who was this man that could decide to just give out twenty million

Luthan's eyes burned with rage as he glared at the greedy man before him. “Father, don't you think it is a rather high amount? Our guest here is possibly bankrupt already. There is no way he could buy her off,” Kimberly spoke up and the audience laughed.“I suggest you leave, Luthan, before you embarrass yourself. We must, however, thank you for being stupid enough to blow off all your wealth in pursuit of recognition. We don't need a murderer and rapist amongst us. This event is for nibbles and…”“Shut your mouth!” Luthan fired and everyone was taken aback. The power in those words left them dumbfounded and unable to speak. “I will send you your miserable net worth now!” Signally at the guard who held his phone, everyone watched in awe as eighty million dollars was wired to the Carter family. The shock on their faces meant nothing to Luthan as he walked over to Mary and showed Alexander out of his way. There was just one thought running through everyone's mind as they stared in a

Camille and Arthur remained in the car staring at the exquisite hotel. It was a five-star hotel. The most expensive in the city. “Do you think he is lodging here?” Camille asked Arthur. “He hasn't been outside in almost an hour. They won't let him stay that long if he was walking around,” Arthur retorted.Camille stared at the hotel once again, a puzzled expression settling on her face. “Where do you think he got so much money from? He just threw the Carters’ networth in their faces without even blinking…” Camile trailed off. Arthur opened the car and got out. “Definitely not by any clean means. The last time we saw me, he was on the streets, wearing nothing but rags. We took everything from him, and even then, he didn't even have up to thirty million dollars,” he said as Camille joined. “We will go in there and confront him. He's hiding something big and if he won't say it, we'll let the police force the truth out of him then.”They walked into the building and Camille was immed

Luthan sat in the hotel lobby, eyeing his unwanted visitor warily. Camille sipped her coffee, throwing him casual smiles.“I didn't come here to watch you drink. Get to the point and leave,” Luthan said candidly, but she remained unfazed by his words. “How have you been, Luthan?” She asked instead. His eyes narrowed at her.“My well-being is not the reason you're here, Camille. Cut the chase or I will be forced to leave you,” Luthan coldly stated. “You are still as impatient as ever my dear, Luthan,” she smiled. “What is wrong with checking up on my ex-husband, huh? Can I even say that? Last time I checked, we were still legally married.” Luthan was flabbergasted by the boldness. First, she connived with his family to take over his properties and slept with his brother, even had children for him, and now, she was here, reminding him that they were still legally bound. “I suppose you're here for a divorce then. I'll have my lawyers prepare the papers and send them over to you,” Lut

After his tour with Raven, Luthan decided to visit one more person before returning to the hotel.When a Royce drove into his compound, Barry simply assumed it was a business associate who didn't know the boundaries of work. None of his relatives could afford a Royce. Barry leaned over the balcony, waiting for the visitor to step out. About three minutes passed before the car door opened Barry saw the one person he never believed he would see ever again. Luthan King. What in heaven's name was the man doing in his house? Three years had passed since their last encounter but this Luthan looked nothing like the man back then. Still, there was no way he could afford a Royce. Was it possible he was showing off another man's car? The Luthan he knew was straightforward. He didn't pretend to elevate himself before others. Either way, the man had no business in his compound.“Stop there!” He yelled from the balcony and Luthan stopped, lifting his head to look at Barry. “What business do y

Camille signed and retrieved the brown envelopes from the delivery man. She was curious as to what it was and decided to pry just a little.We were family, after all; surely they wouldn't mind just a little. She picked up the first one and opened it. “Divorce Agreement,” Camille read with a scoff. “The bastard was serious with this whole divorce thing. I will just have to meet Barry to discuss this later. Maybe there is some loophole we can exploit. I don't plan to watch him spend all that lottery money alone.”She put the document back in the envelope. She picked the second one and headed upstairs. Arthur was nowhere to be found which was a good thing. She quickly buried the document underneath the rug.Camille wasn’t ready to deal with it yet. She proceeded to open the next document, and her features paled out when she saw it was from the bank. She didn't want to believe it, so she flipped through page by page, reading as fast as she could. Apparently, Anthony Kings had used the m

Camille didn’t say anything just yet. She looked straight at him and thought about what expression would be best to tackle this situation.“What I want to know is why you have targeted two members of my family,” David looked down at her. “What is it that you want from my family Camille?”“I don’t know what you want from me,” Camille began, finally settling on a blank expression. “I’m sorry to disappoint you if you were expecting to make some huge discovery but-”“Do you have anything to do with the amount of money that the Carter family just lost?”Although he interrupted her, the question did not take her by surprise, luckily. She was prepared for him to ask her something like that so she furrowed her brows at just the right moment and there was no way that he could get anything from her expression.“I might be a dumb bimbo according to you,” she finally said after looking confused for an adequate amount of time and shaking her head as though to shake away the confusion. “But even I

The wait until they could get their hands on the money was excruciating. According to Arthur, the guy who did the entire technical job to get them the money dictated how and when the money would be available for them to use. Camille chose not to ask questions because she got to face Kimberly everyday and she was afraid that she was going to slip up and spill something if she knew too much.When the money finally got into his hands he behaved so normaly that Camille would not have been able to tell that he recently got so much money if he hadn’t told her himself.“Don’t tell anyone,” he had insisted. “We have to keep everything on the down low so that the Carters would not be suspicious of us.”“But you have to give Jordan Reigns his money soon enough or he’s going to take away the family company.”“We can wait just until we have to give him the money.”Camille nodded along to his plan, happy that the money was available at least. She could now save her worry for other important things

By the time Kimberly came downstairs Camille had already hurriedly set the table and pretended as though she had taken her time with the process.“Took you long enough,” she said.“Sorry, I had some sudden and important calls that I had to make,” Kimberly apologized. “Hope I didn’t keep you long?”“It’s fine,” Kimberly said. “I had my phone with me.”Camille kept having serious anxiety about what had just happened. Her mind kept playing a scene in her head where Kimberly came downstairs while she was in the closet with Alexander and saw all that was happening on her computer then hurried upstairs afterwards to keep the charade. She comforted herself by reminding herself that someone like Kimberly Carter would not pretend for any reason if she found something like that out. She would’ve directly walked to the closet and dragged Camille out of it by her hair and since that never happened, she was safe.They ate the meal they had made and discussed. This time Alexander was not invited to

In less than two weeks Arthur would have to deliver on the deal he made with Jordan Reigns. Tensions were high and Camille was proud of Arthur for keeping his cool in spite of what was going on. She had actually decided that if he couldn’t raise the money on his own until the last minute she would support him. Thanks to Luthan’s money, she had enough to spare. But she was going to hold out until the last minute because she didn’t want Arthur or Anthony to know that she had that much money at her disposal because as much as she loved being taken care of, she knew trouble when she saw it and no amount of love will make up for security. Having money to save herself and her children should the tides turn —or rather, should the situation get worse— was something that could not be compromised on.While they waited for the big day, the day when they could finally carry out the plan to take from the Carter family, Camille knew that she had to get some information to give to Kimberly. She met

Camille turned around, frightened. It was one of Camille’s brothers. She thought quickly and immediately brought her hand to her chest to explain her reaction. “Gosh, you scared me.”He looked at her suspiciously. “I don’t think we’ve met and it seems you were looking for something?” he ended it like a question.“Yes,” Camille said, fixing her hair casually. “The bathroom.”He looked at her, gaze unwavering. “I don’t think we’ve met.” He said.“We have but you probably won't remember me because I was not the most important person in the room.”“I doubt that I would forget seeing someone like you,” he blurted and there was silence for a few seconds as they both processed his unplanned words. His ears reddened and he coughed and Camille immediately recognized an opportunity. She wasn’t getting into trouble this time. She quickly regained her confidence and slipped a strand of her hair behind her ear.“I was at your grandfather’s birthday,” she said.“Ah,” the man muttered. “I see.” His

Camille wore her absolute best on the day she went to see Kimberly. She didn’t want to appear broke and shabby, of course, so she secretly went shopping. She bought the latest clothes and new shoes, bags, make up and jewelries. She felt the exact same way she did when they had so much money and none of the debts they had now. Now that she thought about it, they were riding on Luthan’s money then and she was still dressed in Luthan’s money now. She was not one bit ashamed, especially after she got such a surprised stare from Kimberly.Kimberly came to meet her at the door after the maid let her in. Her eyes widened into saucers but she quickly got her expression under control. She must have gotten used to seeing Camille in clothes that were not quite the latest fashion styles among ladies of class.“You look fantastic Camille,” Kimberly said, giving her a quick hug and an air kiss. “Is that Carla Ortega you’re wearing?”Camille spun around to give Kimberly a good look at her entire out

“Where the hell have you been?” Anthony crossed his arms, he had not yet recovered the body weight he lost in jail so he didn’t look as intimidating as he usually did but Camille knew that Arthur had to be terrified. She was scared herself.“I’ve been out of town looking for the money to pay the Reigns so we can get our company back.”“And how did that go?” Anthony asked.“I got seventeen million dollars,” Arthur said. His stance looked very confident and that was an impressive amount. Camille would’ve been more impressed if she wasn’t entitled to half a billion dollars as Luthan King’s ex wife. So much had changed since Luthan got back from prison to the point that Arthur coming home with seventeen million dollars in a matter of days is considered not so impressive. Perhaps that was the influence of a billionaire on them, now even their problems come in hundreds of millions of dollars.“And where, pray tell, did you get that amount of money from?” Anthony said looking thoroughly unco

“Luthan?” Came the voice through the phone.Of all the people, of course it had to be Camille. If he had looked at the caller ID he wouldn’t have picked up the phone. He’d have told Mary Lynn that the call was not important because it really wasn’t.“What is it?” he asked as he went up the stairs.“No need to speak with that tone,” Camille’s voice came from the other end of the line. “I’ve got good news.”Any news at this point would seem like terrible news. A lot of angry words circled through his brain but he inhaled deeply and said only one word, “shoot.”“I got invited to the Carter house, it’s insane!”“It’s your job,” he deadpanned. “It’s what you were supposed to do in the first place.”“I don’t remember you paying me for it,” she grumbled, “now you’re calling it a job.” “How about you give me some results, then we’ll think about it.” Luthan said. That clearly made her happy.“Now if you don’t have anything else to say,” he said then hung up as soon as he was sure that that wa

Luthan stood and watched as her car drove into the distance. The sun was setting and he had to return home soon. He didn’t really come all this way just for a meeting with Camille. He had something to discuss with someone important concerning his business and since Camille had insisted on seeing him today he figured that he could use that to his advantage.“Sir, shall I get the car ready?” The butler, Matthew, asked. “Miss Mary Lynn should be returning home soon.”“Yes, please.”Matthew nodded and walked away. After a while, he returned to let Luthan know that the car was ready.“Mr. King, I hope you don’t mind me asking but why did you offer her so much money?” The Butler asked. “She cheated on you, helped steal all of your assets and properties and pretty much left you for dead.” Matthew had worked for Stanley Flair until the man passed away so Luthan Knew that he could trust him. “Matthew, have you ever wanted to get something really bad but found out that it was far beyond your
