Dylan gave a quick nod to what the man asked. He couldn't be any surer than he was at the moment, he was bathed and humiliated then tossed at like he didn't matter. He stepped forward. "I was not having moustache around youth when I mattered it."

Mr Tuner finding sass in Dylan's sentence chuckled lightly. "You might need to get your feather to believe that, he thinks you have outgrown the air on your face and won't let you anywhere close to being the head of his conglomerate."

Dylan stepped back, rubbing his hand slightly on Mr Turner's shoulder. "I will take care of this."

The assured answer made the man raise his shoulder as he stepped up to the back of his steering wheel and revved the car.

    The heat was unbearable. . .Dylan felt a bead of sweat slowly dripping down his neck and sacrificed itself through the cotton confine of his already damp polo shirt. He strategically fanned a piece of paper at his face looking up at the clustered sky, the last thing he wanted was for rain to fall, his whole body seemed to be melting. Hours later wind whistled across the city, the sky screamed of darkness and thunder rant aloud. Shortly after the water starts to dribble, Dylan rushed into Crescent's company, his hand covering his head, drenched in rain he hung his cloak on the rack and stepped forward to the lobby. His eyes scanned around. "I told you, Francis, didn't I tell you it was Dylan I saw." A voice teased. Francis gives Wayne a silly look and set down his glass on the table by his left. "You're the new janitor?" The ladies laughed, handing the mopping stick and bucket to him. Dylan gives the familiar woman a bitter look while he hung his head at the menacing loo

Dylan asked."Ebony hair, blue eyes, sharp jawline, milky skin and a poor background. Who says you can't be rich Dylan?" His leg was tipped to the ground. "Yes you're right, wealth is here calling out to you and you have two options you either choose to be wealthy by my side or stay stoic, the choice is yours in whatever way."Dylan was tempted but he flew his arm back. "If this is a joke. Old man, you have got to know something I'm used to people like you treating me as if I were trash."The man cuts in. "And you despise it, you're not used to it, no one is used to being wasted, especially not you, you are a man of ambition and you crave vengeance. Let's cohabit." Dylan had made his research on the man, every of the rich in the city knows he was a super-rich conglomerate but they never get to meet his family, high-end, for Dylan t

The doctor said, "What can you afford here, like seriously, painkiller drugs are over two dollars, from your shabby look I can sense you haven't made a cent today."Dylan forced a smile and stared at them. "Look, he is just as speechless as a moron, he can't speak, can he? What a pity, he must have seen himself in the mirror over there." "He's no star or anything, just to think he's a huddled piece of prawn." The nurse purses her lips in disdain and sneers.Dylan was not amused by their rants, there were so many people in the world these days who judge others by their appearance."Well you can see, we're not remorseful but grateful you got yourself another helper. We're no charity like them. Excuse us, we have patients to tend to." The doctor said trying to get away from the drama they started.Dylan didn't react; he just watched them as they

    Minutes have passed Dylan still finds the situation he's in a joke, he's a grown man and for whatever reason, they thought they could turn his head as they like."What? That suits him better." Wayne let out without remorse. "It's not like he does his worth at the company or at home either."Debbie let out the most annoying scourge. "Who cares after all he's tired and weak like a chicken." She scoffed."Dylan looks pale, he can't survive without us, that is certainly more like us trying to ease the burden on him."Natalie, tired of what the mother along with her sister, Wayne we're doing swarming over the honey let out an irritated sigh. "Let's be informed this is not the right time to bring about my. . ." Natalie raised her brow and gave DYLAN, a kind of irritated look. "Fine I messed up big time, can we talk inside Natalie?"

The fact that they were monitoring him had given him a hint on what to say."No I'm not working undercover, Wayne it's clear I'm busy.""No, these street guys with nothing to their name, you can't predict their level of desperation," Wayne explained to Francis."You know the VIP ticket will be occupied if we stay any longer than we have." Francis spokewhivh brought Wayne out of her thoughts. "We need to be among the toppers so get yourself together, will you?""Why do I have a bad feeling about this?"

He lied and scurried away.Natalie looked to the side toward the cage for Dylan and figured that his wife was on the edge."Natalie, I told you I would get out of there. And not embarrass you."

He gave Mr Turner a quick glance, then he paused his lips and nods."If we want to land the new Stone City project we would need to meet face-to-face with the new mayor." He dropped one card and picked another from the table. "When does the nomination period begin?" "The floor leaders of the leading and opposition parties are waiting for your call, sir." Mr Dorogo studies the images while one of his workers announces."Is it not my money they're waiting for?"

    Ric turned to face his mother with a look of oblivion in his eyes. "It's Dylan." He points his finger in his direction.They saw Natalie tucking her hand into his and dragging him out of the mansion onto the pouch, they stood there. His height condescending to Natalie, she gulped scrubbing her hair and pulled it off."Thank you.""For what?" Dylan knowing fully well as she thanked him wanted to be specific. He stepped closer to Natalie. "I did not sign the divorce paper, as you wanted," Dylan said."For saving me!" She evacuated the last word.Dylan chuckled and stepped closer this time they were only breathing apart."There's a tag on your shirt. Don't rush downtime."Natalie with a fluttering heart swat his hand away. "Don't think your call saved me.""Stop being dramatic, you just said I saved you." Dylan had a playful smirk on his face."Your father really cares about you. You should meet him, at least when he's least alone." Dylan edged towards the staircase.Natalie wandered aro

    The stretchers were being moved along with the casualties, groans of pain echoing through the villa.Natalie held her hand to her chest. When her phone managed to turn on, she received a notification that said the meeting scheduled for eight o'clock pm had been cancelled due to a security threat."What happened back there?" Mrs Debbie asked curiously as she glanced through the screen."There is a blast and everywhere reads that it's the villa Natalie went to instead of the father," Ric said with concern."Her number is not pushing through either," Francis said chewing down on his finger, he used to do this whenever he was nervous and figured out there is a serious situation."Does that mean Natalie could be dead?" Wayne's voice cuts in, her nails tapping on the staircase rim with her face indifferent."Don't be so stupid who is talking about death here? She can't be dead!" Mrs Debbie yelled shunning Wayne.Wayne rolled her eyes. "It's just a simple meeting and nothing dire and if ever

    "It is only a matter of time, you have to let her die as part of your revenge or save her." The old man said to Dylan as he tried to piece the whole situation into one big frame."Why did you say that?" To him meeting the president wasn't something to cause a fuss about, it could be deadly but not for a task that looks fruitless as this. Natalie had gone for two days now and the mansion gate had been locked."I want to know," Dylan said. The man stopped on his heels and stepped towards Dylan."Mr Dorogo will prefer it if you keep your lane as his successor.""I should know why he showed up at Tiffany's launch and created a fuss that night. If I must succeed him these are things that shouldn't be kept a secret." Dylan's piercing gaze was seen through his voice.The man stepped closer, laying his hand on Dylan's chest, the street light illuminating both men as they were close together."I've scored more than I should and my loyalty is questioned.
