“Mr Donaldson told me himself that he was ready to take whatever penalty of his actions there was. He told me that if I wanted to kill him, his hands were wide open waiting for me. If the police would come, he would be at his house.”“So what do you want to do to him?”“He's the only one safe, father. He decided to turn from his evil ways and expose the truth. He didn't have anything personally against, and since you said none of them ever had an attack against the Wright empire, then, he is okay.”“And Mr. Tate?” He asked.“He might be the hardest to penetrate, but I will definitely find something against him,” Alaric said, his head immediately thinking of Kimberly. “Did he do anything to you?” Mr. Wright asked. Alaric was hesitant to answer the question, but he shook his head. “Nothing to the company, but to me, yes, father,” he said.“Then, what do you plan on doing to these people as a method of revenge?” Mr. Wright asked.“I want to put an end to all of them. There were so many
The car pulled up at a cafe, and Evelyn wondered to herself why they had been at a cafe earlier and just arrived at another one“Is today all about drinking coffee?” She asked.“Funny joke, but no. It just happens to be my favorite venue for a meeting,” he said, as he stepped out. He went inside the cafe, and sat down, taking a table. One of the workers immediately walked up to him.“What can I get for you, sir? And your wife, ma'am?” He asked, looking at Alaric and Evelyn.“What?” Evelyn said in shock. “Wife? I'm not his wife.”“Don't mind her. She's going to be my future wife, but you know how shy women are. She's in the one I'm actually taking on a treat today. Wait a little while, the main character is coming,” he said. Evelyn, pissed by what Alaric was doing, began to mutter to herself.“Main character huh? Which means I am an ordinary character in this story. Well done, sir, for degrading me.” Alaric, seeing that she was beginning to get angry, smiled. “You know that you will
3 DAYS LATER.Alaric was in his office going through some files that had been presented to him earlier when Steve suddenly rushed into the office.“Young master, the police are here,” he said, as he made way for them to enter the office. “Good morning Mr Alaric Wright. I am Inspector David Williams, the police officer who is in charge of the case in your company. I have two other police officers with me today, and an investigator,” he said, pointing at each one of them.“Good day, sir. I am Investigator Adam Phil,” he said, extending his hands. Alaric shook hands with the police officers.“It's good to see you all today. Our legal department reported a case and I'm happy that it's being looked upon,” he said.“Don't worry Mr Alaric. We will do our best to dig to the bottom of this,” he said.“Okay, so, how do we start?” “First of all, we have to collect the necessary information and evidence you have against the culprit. Then, you have to come to the police station to submit your s
“Mom, Dad, look. We are finally getting back investors who left us before. They want to give us a second chance and invest in the company again. This is such great news and it's overwhelming,” Norton said, rushing down the stairs to meet his father and his mother who were in the living room. Mr. Jefferson turned around. “Really? Have our investors come back?”“Yes, Dad. Look at this, Mr. Peter said that he wants to give us a second chance and that we should not fail him this time. They want to invest in the company so that we can use the amount to produce and make a profit,” Norton explained.“That is very good news, son. You are doing a very good job when it comes to handling the company. This calls for a big celebration,” Mr. Jefferson said.“Dad, relax. We have to make sure that we get everything back before we celebrate. If we have all we need, then we can wine and dine and there will be no one to stop us. This is the first step, there will be more steps ahead,” he said.“Look a
"These blockheads attacked me and the first thing they seized was my property. I didn't know they were eager for my money.”“Money that you earned dubiously?” “What do you mean to say by that? I worked at the company of your long-term rival, remember? My salary can feed your family for months,” Lucas said.“I can't believe that you still have the guts to boast even when you are in the police station, behind bars. What the hell is wrong with you? None of that is going to save you now, Lucas, so quit dreaming?”“I am not going to be here for as long as, loser. That, I can assure you. I will do everything in my power to get out of here. Look, son, have you thought about escaping?” He asked.“Even to the end, you are still having devilish thoughts. What makes you think that you can even escape from here?”“I was just kidding, bloke. Just know that I won't be staying here for as long as you.”“Well, only if you are proven to have committed the lesser crime.”“There's nothing to prove, bro
"And your last wish?” Norton bowed his head, trying to hold back the tears in his eyes. “My last wish…”“Yes. Tell me.”“Please, forgive me. This is my last wish.” Alaric was surprised.“What?”“Yes, young master. That is my last wish. If you can grant me these three wishes, then I don't care if I die. I will live without regrets. I just want to make sure that my mother is okay, but if I have the forgiveness of the woman I love, and that of yours, then I am satisfied,” he said. Lucas was just staring at what was going on without saying a word.“So you want me to go and give your mother money?”“No, young master. Support her in any way you can is all I ask. Please,” he said.“Consider your last wish granted. I forgive you, Norton. I have already forgiven you a long time ago. I just wanted you to learn your lessons and end it all by putting you in prison,” he said.“Thank you for this, Alaric. I will forever be grateful.” Alaric turned around to leave, and Lucas said, “Forgive me t
Evelyn was working in the office when suddenly her phone rang. She picked it up to see who was calling, and it was Mr. Steve. “Good day, Mr. Steve. Can I know why you are calling me? I am currently doing something at the office,” she said. “You need to come here right now, Miss Evelyn. Someone wants to see you, and she requests that you be here soon,” he said. “What? Who wants to see me?” She asked. “Someone in the household wants to meet with you.” “I don't really know if I have the chance to come because I have a lot of things to do right now, Mr. Steve. Can this meeting be scheduled later?” She asked. “It is not a business meeting, Miss Evelyn. In case you didn't hear me, I said that someone from the household wants to see you.” “The household? What do you mean by that, Mr. Steve?” She asked. “The mansion of the Wright family,” Mr. Steve said. “Really? A member of the mansion wants to see me?” She asked. “Yes. Come quickly, it's urgent. I'm sure you know where the Wright M
Alaric watched as the other players of the team did a great job in the practice. While staring, he knew he couldn't match up to them. They had always been better than him. They always were. He was weaker in every way anyone could think of, and while he didn't have money for tuition, he had to depend on this team to make a living. If he played for the team, then he would receive allowances. He was a poor little college guy who didn't have the basic necessities and couldn't afford them, coming from a very poor family. He was no match for them, all these rich folks, who played much better and taunted him all the time. "Come on Alaric. The ball!" Some of the other teammates hollered at him, urging him to make a defense and dribble Jake, a top player, who was attempting to take possession. His feet faltered and he fell to the ground, Jake passing him, and kicking his legs to the side, as he attempted for a goal. Alaric groaned as the pain coursed through his muscles and bones,
