The Heir's Redemption Chapter sixty one
The strange man stood by the window, staring down at the building with disdain. His nose flared and his eyes glared. The private jet which hovered overhead was loud enough to block out the noise from underneath but in his head, he could almost hear the voices of the old men as they schemed and planned to send him off, the memories that would forever haunt him. As the private jet landed, the man sighed deeply, attempting to school his features as he walked into the car that had been awaiting his arrival. "Welcome back, Master Jefferson." The driver said as he got in. "I hope you had a nice trip." "Thank you, it feels good to be back." He replied with a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes. "We have the Intercontinental suite ready for your arrival, sir. We have also made a reservation - exclusive - for your dinner." The driver said with a smile. Jefferson shook his head, he was not interested in the fancy welcome that they'd done to impress him, he wasn't easy to impress wi

Chris marched into the meeting room, more angry than he had been in a very long while. Evans was right beside him but the man's presence did nothing to comfort Chris. Pete was at the table and beside him was Jefferson, the supposed joint heir of the family. Chris could see from the surprised stares on other members' faces that Jefferson was not the stranger he'd thought him to be. Pete rose from his seat and performed the rites for the meeting to begin. There was a hush that fell over the assembly, no one looked eager to say anything. But soon, Hogan broke the silence just like he always did, this time with a question. "Is his return approved by the Jupiter?" He asked and Pete nodded. "How else would he be in our midst? The laws must be followed." He replied. Hogan frowned. Jefferson had been his rival long before Chris ever sat as the CEO of the company. Hogan had also faced scorn when Jefferson was the heir and just when he had stood a chance to finally take that seat
The Heir's Redemption Chapter sixty three
Christian sat by the terrace of the company building, his eyes scanning the busy city below. The Robinson Company was one of the highest firms in the city and beyond and people clamored to work there. Frankly, Chris could visualize the appeal from the outside, but as a member of the family, he grimaced at the struggles he went through just to remain relevant to the firm. It was no longer a question of who was worthy, it was now a question of who would fight the hardest and Chris was not known to ever give up in a fight. "You'll need a lot more than meditation to get out of this one, boy." A loud voice came from behind him, Chris did not need to turn to know who the voice belonged to, it was unmistakably Hogan's. "This battle seems a little out of your class, don't you think?" His eyes still cast away, Chris replied flatly, "And what do you know about battles? You've never had one all your life," "I've told you this one time too many, Christian, your enemies are fast growing and th

Loyalty, Chris knew as a song of the skilled. Being loyal was almost as hard as thwarting the family business, both were a herculean task. As Chris sat in his car that afternoon, he wondered how hard it would be for someone to stay loyal to one person, he wondered how easily the family could be bought and how soon he'd find out about it the hard way. Evans was right, Chris thought with a sneer. The table was not a place he could trust. Almost everyone could be bought and the chameleon nature of the members was a cause of concern.Chris huffed as he looked at his rearview mirror again, nearly praying to be wrong and that there was probably a reason why Potter, his trusted family butler, and driver, was speaking with Jefferson in a hushed tone. He'd seen Jefferson exit the building with a manilla envelope that Potter had handed to him secretly in the hallway, the CCTV had caught it and although both of them had been very quick and sly about it, Christian's trained eyes could still. p

"Jefferson?" Chris asked in shock. "Yes, he has a hold on me so strong that I... I feel helpless." Potter said. Chris knew how hard it was for the man to open up about how he felt. Potter was always strong and capable, seeing him so vulnerable and in despair touched some part of him that he'd thought was buried deep inside. "Do not worry, Potter, we can sort this out." He said. Potter shook his head slightly, "I am certain that you will, master, I am just afraid that it will take my kids away from me, he has promised that if I tell... " Chris stopped him before he could continue, he had his fair share of blackmail and he knew that they thrived on threats, fear, and weakness, the fewer people that knew about it, the better for the blackmailer. "How could you possibly believe anything he's said? He has no power in this city, he has just returned," Chris explained, trying to calm him. "You don't understand, master, Jefferson is not an easy man as you think, he was quite the charac

The large living room smelled of strong coffee and waffles, the chef walked in with another tray of freshly fried salmon and crispy potato chips, he laid it down and bowed slightly before walking out. "I don't think I'll have breakfast, I might grab something on my way out, I'm already running late," Chris said to his chef. The man nodded and went to clear the table just as Mr Potter walked in. "Ahh, Potter, welcome to my home, but again, I guess you made the choice yourself so... What's new?" Chris Joked and grabbed his coat from the hanger on the wall. "Good morning, Mr Chris, it is a pleasure to be here." He replied with a smile that did not quite reach his eyes. Chris saw this smile and immediately slowed down, "We might be late for work but I don't think you're here just to give me a ride, I do remember asking you to take the day off." Potter nodded, "I will take you to work, sir. That is all I live for and I need work to take my mind off things, but, I have to talk to you." H

The name resounded in his head. It was the only Melissa he knew that had any ties to his family. Chris remained calm and looked at the journalist quizzically. "That name doesn't ring a bell." He replied steadily. The beautiful woman frowned and rummaged through her bag for a passport photograph, she handed it to Chris who took it and still looked blankly at her. "You still don't know her still?" She asked. "I'm afraid not, I'm sorry if I've disappointed you, did you think that I would?" He asked with a casual shrug. Luciana had no doubt thought just that. She didn't come to the Robinson company willingly, in fact, she had been a little afraid to show up with an ID card asking for information, she knew how strongly the family valued privacy and that their lawyers would have something against her if she spoke in a wrong tone. "Let me guess, you came here thinking you'd have your answer." Chris said and smiled, "Sorry to disappoint you, lady, but I have no idea who this is." Lucian

Chris was in his house, in the living room with Pete, a table between them and two glasses of Brandy on that table. Pa Pete had not taken even a sip, but Chris was on his second glass. "Alcohol won't solve this," Pete said as Chris gulped the second place and poured himself a third. "One reason I'd recommend you quench your thirst, the drink did nothing to offend you, huh?" He said with a crooked smile. "The election is tomorrow, Chris." He nodded and took another sip of his drink. "It's my election too, I don't think I'd forget when it is." He replied. "I don't reckon you would. I'm only reminding you how much this means to the family, and how this will likely go." He said. Chris held up a finger, "I'm very sorry, Pa Pete, but once again, you and I have different beliefs about life. I don't believe in fate and the predictable, I believe that a second can alter everything. " He said. "And that, exactly is your problem, boy!" Pete snapped impatiently, "You rise to make a declara

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
