The Heir's Redemption Chapter thirty eight
The dimly lit bar was quite noiseless despite being situated in a cheap neighborhood, with very few patrons at the corners, each nursing just a bottle and reading one magazine or the other. Chris moved impatiently on his seat and glanced at his wristwatch as he waited for Melissa to arrive. He was furious, but he was wise enough to know when he was between a rock and a hard place and that it was wise to play along until he had a bargaining chip. Shortly, Melissa arrived at the bar, dressed in a flowing dress that covered down to her ankles, her hair wrapped in a turban and her eyes hidden behind a pair of large sunglasses. "You're late." He sneered as she sat on the bar stool beside him and pulled off her glasses. "I had to be sure I wasn't followed." She replied and dropped her purse on the counter, asking for a glass of vodka. "We're not here to drink, Melissa." He said and she laughed, her head thrown back. “That's nonsense, a little drink never hurt anyone." She said and gu

Armed with the right weapons in his arsenal, Chris knew he would easily ward Melissa off like the bad force she was. Later that day, as she'd promised, she sent him a text to warn about her plan and she instructed - more like ordered - him to be present and he'd surely receive the news from Evans himself. Chris knew Melissa was not one to embark on an empty quest, she was not bluffing, she would surely not mind creating a rift between father and son if it could get her what she wanted and apparently what she wanted at that point was freedom from Evans himself. "What else do you know?" He asked his private investigator as he called him back after receiving the photo. The man hesitated for a few seconds and then said, "She may be making rounds on the table actually, I guess that Justin alone was foolish enough to fall right into her trap." Chris was surprised, he could not believe that Melissa would be having numerous affairs with members of the table when she knew how much Evans

Evans was confused at the sudden hostility in Melissa's tone, he looked at her curiously as she fumed at Chris. "You must have some guts." She snapped and Chris sat back as calmly as she'd arrived, undisturbed by her behavior. He knew all too well that she was going to make good on her promises to tell Evans about the setup she'd done. "What's going on honey?" Evans asked, turning to his wife with a deep frown. "Maybe he can explain that," Melissa said, trying to give Chris another chance to salvage the situation. Chris sat there in a stoic manner, he wanted nothing to do with her schemes. "I guess you've made your choice, Christian." She sneered and grabbed the remote control. IImmediately, the door burst open and Justin came in, an uninvited guest. Melissa turned to see Justin and her face morphed into a mask of shock. "I hope I didn't interrupt anything." He said. "Justin?" Melissa asked in shock, the remote control forgotten in her grasp. Evans rose to welcome

An elderly man stared at the TV screen with a scowl on his face. He knew the man on the screen and it made him mad that he had much influence while he was getting more penniless by the day. The man on that screen was Christian Robinson and the older man was his ex-father-in-law, Simon Williams. "That's Chris right there, he looks like he's doing quite well for himself, only if you weren't foolish enough to cut all ties with him." Simon scolded his older daughter who was seated right next to him, her eyes on the TV screen too with a frown of her own. "It was your idea that I let go of him, he wasn't helping my career or the family in any way, remember?" She said defensively. Simon shook his head with a mean stare, "You should have known if he was doing to become someone better after a while, he was your husband, how could you not know that he had big plans that would get him rich so quickly? Now look at him, all high and mighty and we can't even go and ask for his help." Simon snap

Christian looked at Anneliese with shock on his face, he could not believe she was at his office and with Carter. "He isn't allowed in this building, you better find someone else to work as your legal adviser." Chris snapped. Anneliese smiled, apparently satisfied with Christian's anger. She grabbed a hold of Carter and smiled at Chris. "He is my legal adviser and he will remain with me until I say otherwise. I must warn you, Chris, the press team is outside and they are ready to see how this all goes down." She said with a coy smile and walked up to him. "I'd suggest you deal carefully with us or the paparazzi will have a field day." She whispered with a wicked chuckle. "How dare you try to threaten me, Anna? I have long ended things with you, what right do you have to be here?" He sneered. Carter moved between the duo and handed him a subpoena, then said, "We won't be speaking with you, Chris. We'll allow our lawyers to do the talking."Christian frowned, he had no idea wha

Chris arrived at the Robinson estate late that afternoon, wearing a pair of sunglasses and a baseball cap. As he drove in, he met Evans in his car too, about to drive out of the estate. "Chris," Evans said simply as he rolled down the window of the backseat and acknowledged his presence. "I came to see you." He said. "I know that I have an important meeting that can not wait unfortunately." He replied. Chris stood still, he did not know how to beg, he could not stop him from going off either. "This is important, my image and companies are at stake." He said. Evans' expression changed to that of curiosity and even if he didn't want to see Chris, he wanted to know what was going on, he after all loved having the right info. "Make yourself comfortable, I'll be with you shortly. " He said and Chris nodded. The driver rolled back into the garage which had over a dozen luxury cars and trucks. Evans got out and led him into the house. The first thing Chris

Pete stood outside the courtroom, a hand on Chris' shoulder and a deep scowl on his face. "The press is ready to eat you up, Chris, you and I know you can not win this fight, not with all the evidence she has," Pete warned. Chris shook his head firmly, "She has lied typed down and you know it." "But the court doesn't! She has bought the sympathies of the court and the press with her story of negligence and helplessness, you can not win a fight against that." Chris looked back at Anneliese who was standing on the threshold with Carter by her side. She wore a black dress that extended past her knee and a perch hat over her face. Indeed, she was being sympathized and many people believed that Chris had cheated her or even stolen from her in one way or the other and she just wanted justice."I can't turn back now, that's cowardice and me clearly saying that I'm guilty, which I'm not," Chris argued. "But you know it is what is best for the family, could be selfless for once and do wha

The office was quiet, the tension so thick that it could be cut with a knife. Pete glared at the young lady that stood before him with a frown, he was not happy with what he was seeing. "This is absurd!" He snapped and flung the stack of papers on her. "I don't know what happened sir, I...I guess this was..." "You better guess right or you will be losing more than your job," Pete warned with a scowl. "Who signed this contract?" He asked and the young lady stammered helplessly. "I want to believe that you're not deaf! Who signed these contracts?!" Pete repeated angrily. "It's Master, Christian." She replied slowly. "Summon him to the conference room, now," Pete instructed and the young lady scampered away, leaving the documents on the floor. Chris sat at the edge of his desk, his eyes scanning through his company records. Since Anneliese had lost the case, he was very interested in his finances and the process, he found some mishap that was going on with his account

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
