Adrian kept on pacing around his room, his hands clenched and unclenched at his side as if trying to grasp a solution, knowing that there was a mixture of fear in him, he could not stop staring through the window wondering if the assassin was going to pop through at any moment.He was filled with fear, anxiety, curiosity, and anger. There were so many unanswered questions and he knew that he was only getting the answer from his Master.But how he was going to leave was now a problem, the securities had been increased and now everywhere was fortified, everyone was already suspecting him so attempting was going to be more difficult for him.Adrian tried all attempts to sleep but it was all in vain so he hurried downstairs and felt grateful seeing that there was no one in the living room and then he stridden towards the Back door, there were two securities there and seeing him, they both blocked his path.“I am sorry Sir, but you can't leave, we have been instructed not to let you go any
Albert shook his head, he let out a loud sigh before he finally began and knew that this was going to be a lot for the young boy to take in. “You see Adrian, there is so much about the spiritual world that you are yet to understand”“Yeah, I noticed. The woman who had approached me told me that I handled the matter with Avery too harshly and ended up rattling the underworlds, but why do I feel like you have been keeping most of this a secret from me and you know that I can't protect the holy light or even the fight the underworld if I do not even know what it is all about”“There are things that I have been keeping away from you for your own good. You were born with the spiritual power of the earth that was passed down to you from your mother who was also a student of mine in the past”“What are you saying, that meeting you was not a coincidence?” Adrian opened his eyes in shock, it felt to him like everything that he had known all his life was not true.Adrian had met his master Albe
As soon as Adrian left the estate, the two guards that were assigned to him knew that they were going to be in trouble if anything were to happen to him so they immediately went over to report to Daniel.Daniel asked both guards to keep Adrian's disappearance a secret knowing that most members of the family suspect Adrian of being involved in the death of the two men. After seeing the action that Adrian had displayed by sneaking away, he was also forced you believe that Adrian might not be allowed what he looks like.So he waited alone for him, although he could have tracked his cell phone, but he wanted to hear some explanation from him and as soon as Adrian stepped on him, he was so startled to see his father whom he thought would be fast asleep standing right there and staring at him in a descending manner.“Dad! You are still awake?”“Yes, I was waiting for you to come home and I must say that it took you quite some time”“I know what this looks like”“No you do not, so how about
More than Daniel was scared about everything that his son had explained to him, he was also not certain that his son had what it took to defeat whoever they were. “Adrian, I suggest that you stay away from Avery since that is what they have asked of you. You are my son that I have lost for years and I can't afford anything happening to you”“I understand how worried you are, but you have nothing to worry about, I am going to be careful and nothing is going to happen to you”“No! This topic is not up for negotiation. Whatever all this is about, let the adults handle it, as for you, you are the heir to Wesley Corporation and have a responsibility there, so I suggest that you start taking responsibility for your family and company rather than a delusional world!”Daniel concluded and was about to walk away, but then he came to an abrupt halt again as he turned to his son. “I have assigned new guards to you who are more capable of protecting you, after school tomorrow, you are expected to
There was a long sigh from the other end of the phone again before Mr. George’s voice came through again. “Listen, Reynold, we go a long way back, we have been friends and I have helped you in all ways that I can, but I think that this is as far as I can go. I have taken my hands off this and hope you find a means to pay off this loan”“George….” Mr Smith was not done talking before a loud beep sound came through and that was the call ending. He caressed the bridge of his nose as he lowered his head down to his computer like there was a solution sitting there, but even at that moment, he felt so lifeless.Just then, the door twisted open with his wife stepped in, she stared at him briefly before she asked. “Is everything alright?”“yeah, sure, why shouldn't it be alright”“Okay, I just thought that you looked a lot of distance lately”“It is nothing serious, I just have a lot on my mind” he responded with his eyes fixed on his computer while he thought that his wife was finally going
The next day, Adrian went to school with the new security detail that was assigned to him, it was not an easy one for him and although it was the last days of college, Adrian felt so hard keeping up with all the eyes around him.Once he was through with his exams, he went straight to the company just like he had agreed with his father.“Adrian welcome to the corporation, everything around here might belong to you, but trust me when I say that there will be no preferential treatment for you, you are going to work hard just like everyone here and you will have to earn your spot here”“You have nothing to worry about, I do not expect any preferential treatment and I am going to work as hard as I can to make you and every member of the Wesley family proud”“I am so glad to hear that, you are going to be working under Kelvin, he is much older than you and has been in the company since he was a child, so I expect you to respect him and do whatever he tells you to do”Adrian nodded his head,
The board members of the Wesley corporation were having a meeting with Kelvin as he was taking the minutes of the meeting. But after an intense time that had passed by, Uncle Theo suddenly turned to him as he asked. “Where is the minute for this meeting, I thought you were asked to copy the file before the meeting commences?”“Yes and I asked Adrian about that part”“Adrain? I thought he just started work today?’“Yes and he assured me that he could copy a file, i went as far as giving him instant on how it is done and he was clear on it”“Then where is he and the file?” Daniel who was getting impatient asked and they all had their gaze at the door wondering when he was going to come in”“Eva, hurry up and send for Adrian, he should be through with the files now, I do not know what is holding him!” Kelvin ordered.“Yes Sir” Eva nodded her head as she dashed out of the conference hall and hurried over to Adrian where she informed him that his presence was needed at the board meeting. A
Once Adrian and Kelvin both left the hall, Adrian followed him over to his office where Kelvin had a calm gaze on his face. Eva quickly stepped in with a cup of coffee but Adrian stood there, still confused at what just happened.“What was that that just happened?” Adrian asked once Eva had placed the cup and stepped away from there.“What are you talking about?”“You know exactly what I am talking about. You and I both know that you had clearly stated that you wanted those files ready in a week, because if you had asked me that you wanted those files ready today, you know that I would have done that, yet you still found it easy to make me look like a fool in front of the entire board, why did you choose to do something like that”“I do not know what you are talking about, you are the one who failed to listen while I was speaking, because if you had listened carefully, then you would have heard me say that the files would be used today, even Eva could bear witness to it, so what are y
