The Invincible Student Heir Chapter 133
I watched Annie walk into the club the next day with a partially revealing cloth and makeup that made her look older than her age. If she wanted to help me out she needed to be fast about it before she was caught. She sauntered to the bartender's stool and helped herself on it. Every move she made was reported to me because she had a camera in her phone as long as a phone was out of her it would capture every scene. "You look like you could use a drink." Matt, the flirty bartender whispered, probably seeing her as a prey. Annie moved backward, pushing up her dress so that he could be even more seduced. I shook my head at his delusion. Why did many men not see beyond their limited eyesight? He wasn't her target so I didn't care about whatever it is both of them were about to do. "I am here to have a good time. I don't want any drinks. Do you know if any important person is going to be present tonight?" Annie whispered, yet remaining assert

Mr. Coker pulled Annie closer to his side, making me a bit mad at his attitude. He wasn't even ashamed that she was almost his son's age.Annie planted her feet on the ground angrily, refusing to leave just yet. "I don't think I like the way you rough handle me. I don't think I appreciate the way you move. This means that there is something else I'm not going to waste so much time handling something I could have done better.""I am going to make sure that your life turns around for good. Tell me who doesn't want that."Annie struggled against his hold, and I had to remind myself that I was no longer there, so I had no right to rush over to help her. He dragged her a bit close again, and I held a breath, hoping that I would not go off on him. "I know how girls like you operate. You love the chase and the money involved. I want to know you better." He said with his meaty fingers running down her arm. I knew that I was probably fifteen hours away from her but it didn't stop me. "I ca

I reached out to the district attorney the next day, with a small smile, still trying to find a better way of handling this discussion without letting the core information out. "Master Jordan, it's so heartwarming to hear your voice. You disappeared from the limelight. Do I need to be worried?" "Of course, you need to be worried because it's quite unlike me, isn't it? Now that you know that I have an ulterior motive, what are you going to do about it?" I smiled circling the blank space in front of me. There was a brief pause before answers started pouring in. "Of course, you should be aware that there is something else. I have pretended not to have heard from you to a lot of people, which was quite true, but now that you have called, I feel like I am doing them a great disservice.""Right... That's a great idea. Did you know that there's absolutely nothing wrong in you telling them that you have met up with me after all this while?""And sounds like something you'd like to do, do y

Annie's call kept beeping on my phone and I got very worried. Something was wrong and I needed to find an answer as soon as possible so that I could be free and breathe. If there was a way for me to get through to him I would definitely take it instead of wasting my time and energy waiting for something that was practically non-existent. "I think he is going to find me no matter how much I hide and I think this is the right time for me to confess that there is something else that I've not told you so far," Annie said.If I was a bit confused in the first moment I knew this was going to set my brain back to reset mode. I needed more than just a conviction. I needed something stronger that could put him behind bars and not just something that he could easily wave off. He was someone who was never to be messed with. "Mr. Coker is rumored to frequent various high-profile venues with ladies, especially underaged. I think this is the best thing we have against him because none seems to

I walked into a bar the next day for my evening perusal. Of course, I would never have imagined that a day would come when I would be so enthused to go into a bar. I headed towards the bar stool, staring at one of my favorite bartenders who had good business acumen. His eyes snapped up in recognition and warmth, "Jay, I didn't know you were going to be working overtime today. Have you had any rest?" I asked him. His gaze held something deeper than I wanted to think of, but I realized that the only way to deal with such a situation was to continue keeping quiet and allow people to speak."Hmm, you don't think that I must be here, right? We are having guests over today at the bar. It's almost like the launch of a business deal but it's going to under wraps." He confided in me, before bringing out a glass. "How do you want your drinks today?" I didn't want any drink. I was here to get some information that I considered very important to my well-being. I wasn't going to waste any mor

Jay's eyes widened in trust and he looked like he was about to divulge everything between both of them. 'I have heard that he has helped a lot of people here and he frequents only whenever he has the time. Do you know that he asked that a lot of girls be prepared for him? I think he is into something nasty but that's none of my business as long as I can make the money I want." I smiled at him pretending that I loved the flow of conversation when I was only thinking about the next way to strike. It would be great if I was able to get people on my side and make them understand what exactly was going on. "Hmm, do you think that he is trustworthy enough for you to stick your freedom on?" I asked him stylishly. Since I didn't know the complete state of his heart I couldn't just advise him to forgo that agreement because I had nothing to give to him. "I can see your judgmental eyes but I can tell you for a fact that it's nothing serious. I can tell you that a lot of people right here do

"What do you mean by my grandmother collapsed twice and no one thought it wise to tell me? I can't believe you, Annie. You call yourself my friend and this happened? Didn't you think that it was necessary to tell me?" " I don't want anything bad to happen to her no matter what. She is the most precious thing that I have in my entire life and I'm not going to let that slip off my fingers. Do you understand the gravity of what you have done?" Annie heaved a deeper sigh, and I ran my hands through my hair, even though no one could see me already. I could already envisage how this was portrayed. I was a bad son who didn't care about his grandmother. This wasn't even what I was looking forward to at all. I wanted to return home and meet her in good shape but that didn't look like the case. "I have seen a lot of people whose parents collapsed and they never recover from the backlash. It's scary to even think that my grandmother has suffered such a fate." I said all in a rush before deci

Desperate situations call for desperate measures. This was my mantra for the day as I went about trying to figure out the next move. I was not going to pretend like I was not aware that there was a decline in the rate at which a lot of people wanted to be true period it was almost like a competition of those who could be coolI wore my sneakers and buttoned my leather jacket. This was the best outfit to blend in the club without drawing attention to myself Annie and my grandmother had tried to call several times but they knew I was not going to pick up anymore. The meaning they said those words they knew that it was over. I wasn't one of those people who was going to pretend like everything was fine when in entirety it wasn't. I Stepped into the bar and looked around, enjoying the scenery. There were too many things for me to pick out but there was only one that stood out which was the attire that all the women wore.They were all dressed scanty that would make anyone's head spin bu

The crowd swarms City Hall’s steps again. Always with their banners, their chants, their 'hope'. I lean against the stone column, arms crossed. The mic waits. I don’t. “You want a mayor?” My voice cuts through the noise. They freeze. “Pick one. Not me.” Signs drop. Faces crumple. A woman in front—frayed coat, eyes red—steps forward. “But you 'exposed' the rot. You 'know' who’s clean!” “I know 'nobody’s' clean.” I jab a finger at the courthouse. Its cracked dome glints in the sun. “You think I’m your savior? I’m the guy who lights matches. 'You' rebuild.” Murmurs rise. A man shouts, “We 'trust' you!” Others echo. Trust. A fragile word. Brittle. “Trust?” I laugh. Hollow. “Trust got Gregory Tran killed. Trust let Coker fester. 'Trust' is your problem.” I turn to leave. Hands grab my sleeve. Desperate. Clammy. “Please,” the woman begs. “Just… guide us.” I shake her off. “Guidance costs extra.” ''' They follow me home. Petitions piled on my doorstep. Candles lit like a

The cameras flash. Always flashing. Like a strobe light hell. 'Click. Click. Click'. I straighten my tie. Cheap polyester. Scratchy. 'Good'. Reminds me I’m not one of them. The podium’s edge digs into my palms. Cold steel. Biting. The crowd’s a blur. Suits. Lipstick. Teeth. Hungry for blood. “Ladies. Gentlemen.” I let the mic screech. Feedback whines. They flinch. 'Perfect'. “Tonight, we carve out the 'rot'.” A paperweight sits on the podium. Glass. Useless. I hurl it sideways. It explodes against the wall. 'Crash'. The crowd jumps. A reporter spills his coffee. Dark liquid bleeds across the road. 'Symbolic'. I don’t laugh. “Coker,” I say slowly. Let the syllables rot in the air. “Saint of the City? 'Bullshit'.” The screen behind me flickers. Grainy footage. Coker’s docks. Midnight. Shadows slithering. Crates cracked open. White powder glowing. Ghostly. “Drugs.” I click the remote. Next slide: Judge Eleanor Pryce. Diamond earrings. Smug grin. Pocketing an envelope thick as a b

Jordan’s POVFirst, a ding, followed by a mild vibration.A smirk played on my lips as I dipped my hand excitedly into my pocket and brought out my phone. I had been expecting this message and it came at the perfect time.My eyes scanned the notification on the phone after which I unlocked it to view it better.It was from FriendsMe, a secret platform I and Josh created when we were just kids, whispering about taking over the world in hushed tones.Back then, FriendsMe had been a platform where we could dream big and fantasize about anything. It was our safe haven where we could plot our future and plot ideas without anyone watching us.But things had changed— I had changed.“I know it is you. Behind all of this. The accidents. The disappearances. The chaos. It’s you, isn’t it?” Josh asked.I let out a chuckle as I read the message again. Josh had always been smart but he wasn’t smart enough.I left the message on read and wanted to lock it when another message came in.“Listen man, I

Jordan's POVThe scent of fresh paint and polished wood filled the air as I stepped into the Langston Consortium’s main building. Truly it was fascinating how far we have come and I was so proud of myself.Months of silence had been replaced with ringing phones, busy days and nights, we had so many clients that we had to open a waiting list and that still got filled up.I walked through the hall, hands tucked into my pockets, watching the company my grandfather built come alive once more. It was mine now and I hoped he was proud of the slight changes I made.His death didn't go unpunished and I wouldn't let anything happen to this company no matter the cost.Near the entrance, an older man in a faded suit approached, his steps hesitant. His gaze held quiet hope. “Mr. Jordan, I’ve been with this company for thirty years. My loyalty has never wavered. I—”I lifted a hand, cutting him off gently. “The past stays in the past. It’s time for something new.” I uttered in a finite toneHis th

Jordan's POVThe courtroom was filled with tension. No one said a word but you could feel it in the air as we waited for the video to play.Mr. Coker sat stiffly at the defendant’s table, fingers locked together as though he wanted to strangle me.His lawyer whispered something, but he didn’t react. His jaw worked as if grinding gravel, his eyes shifting to the large screen where the next piece of evidence played.It was a briefcase exchanged proving Coker had bribed the inspector. The official took it with a quick glance over his shoulder, counted the cash, then nodded. Mr. Coker’s voice came through as he gave clear instructions. “This needs to be handled. No complications.”Gasps rippled through the courtroom.I leaned forward, hands gripping the armrest of my chair. My throat felt dry. Across from me, Mr. Coker’s wife pressed a hand to her mouth, face drained of color.The prosecutor stepped forward. His eyes flicked to the judge, then back to the screen. “For the record, this foo

The weight of my words had barely settled before the world caught fire.We couldn't even continue the interview because of how fast the clips circulated on news channels, social media posts multiplying like cells under a microscope. The video surged past fifty million views in hours, tearing through every platform like a storm with no intention of slowing down. "Jordan Langston exposes billionaire Coker in a shocking interview!""Explosive truth: Young heir accuses Coker of murder!""What really happened to Mr. Langston? The answer stuns the world!"Comments, opinions, speculations poured in. Some hailed me as brave, a warrior dragging hidden rot into the light. Others called me reckless, a kid playing with fire, a target painting himself in the brightest red.I sat in the dim glow of my phone screen, scrolling, skimming, watching my own words loop over and over. The sound of hurried footsteps pulled me from the trance. The door swung open. My mother stood there, her breath uneven,

I straightened in my chair wiping off invisible dirt off my suit, I was to look perfect today.We were at the TV station, bright lights beamed overhead, hot against my skin but I didn't break a sweat, we were surrounded by cameras and the interview team.Beside me, my lawyer adjusted his cuffs, his movements smooth, practiced, deliberate. He smelled like expensive cologne and fresh paper, like someone who knew his way around battles fought with words instead of fists.“You good Jordan” he muttered not out of care but hoped I wouldn't make the wrong move.“Never better” I reassured, giving a smile that would be stuck on my face for most of the interview.Soon the interviewer took her seat, a woman with clipped curls and eyes that held the hunger of someone searching for a story, she leaned forward. Her lips, painted the color of ripe cherries, parted as she spoke.“Nice to have you here today” she began giving a big smile for the camera before she returned to us."Mr Jordan, given the

I trust Silvia to do just as I've told her to. All I was expecting at the moment was just results, results of the strings I was going to pull, something he'd never recover from. At some point, I felt selfish. I was literally putting Silvia's life on the line because I know he'd surely come for her after everything's going to be leaked. I should have tried another alternative. It just occurred to me. I gnashed my teeth in regret. I've been running for my own life and now I'd have to protect two souls at the same time, I grabbed my phone, “Silvia…yeah I know…as soon as you're done, grab a few stuffs and come over…I have spaces here…I know, but believe me when I say this, Coker will come for your head and he won't take chances, that's why I said you should come” I hung up the call almost immediately. I've said what needed to be said. Preparations for the primaries to determine who the flag bearer for the parties was almost underway. I'm sure Coker will be all smiles, with the mindset
