The Heir's Redemption Chapter forty six
The high-rise building was the finest in the metropolis, dozens of people walked animatedly up and down the stairs, in and out of the elevator. Chris wrinkled his nose as the smell of the house plant assailed his senses. He was in the waiting area and had been there for the last twenty minutes. He had an idea that the woman he'd come to see was not busy but she had kept him on purpose to mess with his head. These were cheap psychological tricks he'd learned years ago as an amateur businessman. "How much longer do I have to wait out here?" He asked the petite receptionist who had just replaced his untouched cup of coffee with a freshly brewed one. "Miss Saint will be with you in a short while." She replied in a monotone, sounding more robot than human. Chris could see the boredom in her gaze and he guessed rightly that she did not like her job in any way. Immediately, a largely built man strode into the reception desk and called the young lady aside. Chris noticed as she froze at t
The Heir's Redemption Chapter forty seven
The air was suddenly too pungent for him, Chris could not tell if it was the wildhouse plant or the sickening nerves of the lady before him, he could not seem to steady his breathing anymore. "This can not be so difficult, Mr Robinson." She said with a smile and nodded at the documents, "This is a lot of money, and it could be worth a lot if I want to do business with another company." "Do you know how absurd you sound? You came highly recommended and we have had a diplomatic understanding for a contract, now you are trying to breach it?" He asked, baffled at her guts. Sylvia sat there, unaffected by his rage, she looked at the contract on the desk and back at him. "This is the only agreement I had with you and it's clearly worth 200 million dollars, that's what we agreed on__" "That's a big lie! The Robinson family could never budget so much for such a worthless contract, we only came to you because of a trusted partner and I never would have guessed you would be such a great d

Chris should have known that Sylvia Saint was not an easy cat to catch. She was not just ambitious but she was unwavering. After her senior partner's appearance at the board meeting, Chris had thought that he was done with her for good, but he was so wrong. In his warm office, the thermostat was turned on full blast and it warded off the cold from outside. Winter was fast approaching but what with global warming and all, it was too hard to predict the weather. In the solitude of his opulent office, deep in thought, Chris decided to put a call through to his accountant and sort out his records once and for all. He knew there was a cankerworm in his companies and he knew that it was someone powerful and someone that was in a strong managerial position to have access to all the accounts. The subtle changes were so slight that the Inexperienced eyes would not have ever guessed, he was anything but inexperienced. "Put the secretary on the phone." He said and the man hurriedly did as

Potter opened the car down and Chris stepped out of a Bentley. He nodded to the older man respectfully. "Shall I be off until you call for me, sir?" He asked, he knew how private Chris wanted his life and he never, ever meddled no matter how helpful he could be. This was one reason that Chris could trust him. "No, Potter, I won't be long." He replied. Potter drove a few meters away and parked at the side of the building. Chris did not want to draw any attention to himself, he had not announced to his directors or HODs that he would be coming to the company. He rarely ever did so and each time he did, he sent a mail out to notify them. A thief was preying on what they believed was the leftover, it was taking a toll on the company's finances and they were relentless. Jugs Oil was one of the most profitable of Christian's companies, he had opened it quite early and sank billions into it, getting the right connections and network to ensure a smooth operation. He also knew ho

Chris left the Jugs oil and Potter drove him to the Robinson company. He was still furious at what Eugene had said at the meeting. "Do you want to drop by the hotel for a change of outfit?" Potter asked. Chris smiled, he knew it was odd for the older man to see him in such casual attire. "I think I'll stick with this for the entire day," Chris said with a smile and nodded. At the Robinson company, Chris walked into the lift just as Hogan got off with a nicely dressed clerical officer. "I'll see you later," he said and the woman smiled widely at him and walked out. "I heard the Hilton partner isn't taking it so easy on you," Hogan said with a smirk. Chris did not need to ask what he knew, it was obvious that Hogan knew about Sylvia's threats. "Let me guess, she hasn't mentioned her demands to you," Chris replied. Hogan frowned, "Why should I care, you're always the one boxed into a corner like a dog, by women that aren't with much." Hogan retorted. "The truth i
The Heir's Redemption Chapter fifty one
Chris knew for sure that he had been double-crossed. On one hand, Hogan had told the truth. He was having a growing number of foes and he could not exactly place who was trying to sabotage him this time. Hogan was a competition alright but Chris was almost too sure that he would not involve himself in anything that had to do with gambling with the Robinson shares - especially with strangers. Hogan wanted his shares so badly and he wouldn't sublet it to a woman like Sylvia. But then he too knew Sylvia and from all he could tell, she was not the sort of woman you could put under your shoe that easily. These reasons crossed Hogan off his suspicion list almost as quickly as he crossed his mind. The ceiling fan overhead was sounding rather odd, its jerky movement was not comforting either but Chris could not move from the spot he had been given."The boss will see you now." The goon, a dark and hunky man said and led him to what was a container. The interior of the container had been d

In his car, hands on the wheel, Chris listened as the investigator narrated all he had found out even as he sent him the necessary pictures. "She has been having a weekly meeting with Miss Saint, I guess that she is the brain behind the first deal being a mess." Chris couldn't agree more, it all made sense. Beatrice was the only person who could have access to all his important information, she had no doubt sold it to Sylvia and that was the edge she now had on him. "Beatrice has received eight alerts from a private bank and when I tracked down that bank, I found out that it belongs to one of the Hilton accounts, I'm guessing Sylvia isn't alone on this one, she may be getting help from someone else who wants you out." The man added. Chris sighed, he could not stand any more drama. It was bad enough that Dave had been bought over with God knows how much, now the news of Beatrice having a connection with the Hilton Empire was enough to make him furious, even the thought of anyone el

The winding road finally came to a stop in front of a small studio apartment. Chris hit the brakes and looked at the truck he was following. The car slowly rolled to a stop too and the front door flung open. Beatrice stepped out and so did a younger man from the driver's seat. Chris watched as they exchanged hugs and a passionate kiss and then the man drove off as she walked to the apartment, retrieved her key from her bag and entered it. Satisfied with his trail, Chris reversed and drove speedily out of the suburb. He knew where to find Beatrice should he ever need to. She was going to face legal implications of her actions if it got to that. But she was right, he did not have any evidence on her, only a meeting at a public spa that anyone in the city was free to attend. She'd been smart enough to make sure that all her deposits were from a company account and that meant that it was an official transaction for a job. Chris decided that he would not beg her for answers, he had on

Sonya couldn't believe her eyes, she gasped and that was how she fell into the orbit who was right behind her. One of them caught her swiftly and everyone quickly called for the company doctor. Chris remained calm. She was just in shock and would no doubt be revived with a little air and water. He could only imagine what it felt like to be thrown down after such years in power. "Where have you been, son?" Pa Pete asked and Julius only smiled. He was a spitting image of his twin, Evans Robinson and he didn't look like the years had treated him badly at all. Some of the men on the table who knew that their hands were stained and they'd been working with Sonya to condemn Christian, all looked down in shame because they could face him or Julius. "Now that you're back, what will be the fate of the executive board?" One of them mustered the courage to ask. But that wasn't really what he meant and everyone could tell. He was trying to find out what Julius would do to them that had gotten

Evans was a little shaky as the man took them to the inner recess of the tunnel and it became dark. Christian could still remember the way to Orton and he certainly could tell that it wasn't the same route they were being taken. "What's going on? Aren't we meeting with Orton anymore?" He asked and the man simply looked at them without saying anything. Christian swallowed nervously but quietly followed him until they got to a part of the tunnel where the light became brighter and they could see a glass room in the distance. Right through the glass sat an old man at a desk, Orton. "While I still breathe," Evans said as he entered the glass cave. "I never thought I'd see you after so many years, I could swear you vowed never to see the Robinson family again." Orton looked at them quietly and then offered them both the double-seated couch, asking if they needed a strong Irish coffee. "We'll be needing more than a cup of coffee from you," Evans replied with a serious face. He pulled ou

Evans had a plan and that plan was foolproof - or so they both believed. Right there in the living room, Christian showed the token to Evans and after he stared at it in awe, he said it would take them right to Berlin. They arrived at the small town the next day. Evans was in the front seat and Christian was in the driver's seat. His face was twisted in an ugly frown. "I told you to let Potter drive us, he's more mature on the wheel, we almost had an accident on the way here, I hate to think what will happen as we return," Evans said as he stepped out of the vehicle. "I hate this place, I could almost swear nothing would ever bring me back here," he spat angrily. Evans laughed at him, "Never say never, my son, life can be a rollercoaster sometimes," he said. Christian wiped at his head, a bead of perspiration had formed from the warm air. He pulled off his sunglasses and stared at the small pub that still stood in the distance. Karen was still in business and that only meant one t

It was four days after the legendary meeting at the Robinson lobby. Christian hadn't shown up at the company for that long. It made Jupiter happy that one thing she'd hoped for had worked out - Christian was too embarrassed to come back out. That fateful afternoon, Christian was at the Robinson estate after such a long time. If there was ever going to be a time he needed Evans' help, it was then. Arriving at the door, it was Melissa who welcomed him in and he nodded at her mutely and crossed the threshold. "It's been a long time since I last saw you, Christian," Melissa said as she ushered him in. Christian didn't say anything still. He didn't want to talk to her, he was in too sore a mood too. "I know what...how it went last time was not ideal. I know you trusted me with...well, I disappointed you and tried to cause a rift between you and Evans, I'm sorry," she said. Christian again simply nodded. Melissa sighed, she looked remorseful. She was dressed in a sheer green gown and shaw

Sonya did not look so confident anymore, her weak bones trembled and she quickly grabbed onto the desk for support. Christian still wore a smirk on his face as his grandfather, Pa Pete looked warily at the document on the desk."You got the deal?" He asked, his tone disbelieving. Christian did not reply, at least not verbally, he remained standing with a smile on his face. "This is ridiculous!" Sonya yelled, "There is no way this boy could secure a deal with Otec, there is also no way in hell that he knows Orton Berlin," she snapped. Christian dipped his hands into his breast pocket and retrieved the token that Orton had given to him, he did not bother handing it to her but simply slammed it on the table. With shaky wrinkled hands, Sonya picked up the token, she turned pale, her eyes wide in shock. "But how! I have been dying to meet this man all my life, how could you get the Supreme token?" Sonya asked, still in disbelief. "You are not the only one that can weasel your way into p

Sonya took the flowers and had half the mind to toss it in his face but she had to reign in her temper. She instead snatched it up aggressively and tossed it at one of the Orbits who held it like it burned. "What do you have to say concerning the challenge you called, Christian? Are you having a change of heart?" She asked and immediately one of the board members said loudly, "He can't do that! The entire board knows about it and we won't allow such cowardice!" The man snapped. "Who said anything about backing out?" Christian asked and the man began to stammer foolishly before sitting down. Jupiter was pleased with the way they all treated Chris, everyone was attacking him. "Will we all let him speak?" Pete snapped, his voice rising above the others. Christian rose and nodded at the roses he'd just gifted Sonya, "I picked those out myself, it's a shame you won't even appreciate it," he said and Sonya rolled her eyes, "I didn't recall asking you for any flowers, Chris, last I checke

Pa Pete was hesitant to begin the proceedings of the meeting and everyone on the table noticed, especially Chris who was just right beside him.Sonya must have noticed too because she smiled and said mockingly, "Are your feet getting heavier for you, Pa Pete? Perhaps it's not just your grandson that needs replacing, you too might be getting a little too old for that seat." Pete ignored her and looked at Christian who calmly nodded at him, a silent approval to commence the meeting. There was no need to wait, it wouldn't change the outcome of the meeting anyway. The orbits were right behind Jupiter, all six of them stood like rods, stuff, unyielding, with their hands crossed. Pete looked at them scornfully and then cleared his throat a little too loud. "Is there something you have to say? We don't have all day, Pete." Sonya said, her lips still bearing the same smile she'd exited the vehicle with that morning. "I think we all know what I'm about to say," Pete said, looking at member

Hope is a formidable force, even a single ray can light up the darkest abyss. Christian Robinson could attest to this as he woke up that morning, feeling a lot better than he'd slept. He had a feeling that the world was aligning right where it ought to be and he was at the helm of it all - where he'd always wanted. "Sir, your suit just arrived," his servant bowed as he entered the room. Christian hadn't heard him knock but he was sure he had, he'd no doubt been too lost in thought to hear. "Thank you, I'll be right out." He replied and the man nodded as he left. He looked again at the mirror and smirked, his crisp white shirt was tucked beautifully into his black trousers, and his shoe just a little shiny. He'd called back his servants the previous evening just as he'd gotten that token from Berlin. He had a feeling his life was about to change for good, he had a gut feeling. Christian left the room and took the suit from the servant as he got to his car - he'd decided he was dri

The exit of the tunnel led to a small boutique that was on the outskirts of town, close to where the train station was. As he climbed up to the stairwell and pushed the door open, he noticed that no one seemed interested in him even though they'd seen him crawl out of the ground. The receptionist at the desk simply looked at him blankly as he walked out the door and Christian figured that the establishment belonged to Orton, a way of making the tunnel he'd made. It was a brilliant idea, there was no way someone could guess that there was an entire world down there, an entire company. Chris could not get to his car that morning, he'd barely been able to get home in time for a change of outfit before he headed down to Otec - again. This was his second time parked outside the gigantic building and he didn't fail to marvel at the beauty of it all. He sighed as he pulled out the proposal from his dashboard and clutched the token that Orton had given him firmly in his grip. Coming down
