The waitress brought the order in a tray and placed the cups of coffee on the table. Alaric smiled at Mr. Donaldson, and he tipped the waitress.

"Thanks for your service, ma'am," he thanked her, and she nodded.

"You're very welcome sir. Have a nice meeting. Thank you for the tip," she said, and bowed her head, before retreating to the counter.

"That's very generous of you, Alaric, but I already paid for every order we would need. The extra money which we might not make use of is given as a tip. Anyways, that's very good of you, Alaric," he said.

Alaric smiled and nodded. "Thank you, Mr. Donaldson. If there isn't any more to say about that, can we get to the real matter? I heard you have been proposing a deal with the Wright Empire, and have arranged this meeting today to specifically speak about it," Alaric said.

Mr. Donaldson nodded.

"Yes, Alaric. Anyways, I was expecting to see your father or your mother, because he was the CEO and owner of Wright Empire before the big annou

    "It was very nice speaking to you, Young Master Alaric. I hope you put into consideration all that we have discussed and I hope to hear from you soon. Have a safe journey home," Mr. Donaldson said, extending his hands to shake Alaric. He was reluctant at first but shook hands with Mr. Donaldson. He walked out of the café, with the words ringing in his ears. "I know you, Alaric Drones." It was as if it pierced deep into his heart, and he was troubled about it. If one person knew about his past and everything about his life a few days ago, then it was all going to be ruined. Steve walked up to him, with a smiley and anticipating face, accompanied by Evelyn. "Young Master, how did the meeting go? You're done already?" Steve asked, looking at Alaric who was trying to remain calm. He was lost in thoughts for a while, and it caught Steve and Evelyn off guard. They didn't understand what was going on with Alaric, and Steve snapped his fingers at Alaric's face. "Young Master, what's

    Alaric stared at his phone in bewilderment. He didn't want Kimberly to face any harm of some sort. He ran up to Steve, who was waiting for him by the car. "Are we ready to leave, Young Master? Can we go now?" Steve asked Alaric, who looked worried. "I think I will have to go now, Steve. I have something really important to attend to," Alaric said, his voice filled with urgency. Steve looked surprised. "Is there anything wrong, Young Master? Why are you sounding like that?" He asked. Alaric shook his head, and fear flitted across his eyes. "I don't think I have the time to explain anything right now. I will take one of the cars. Make sure not to follow me or send the guards after me. It's an order from me to you, do not defy it," he said, and headed to the first car. "But what happened, Young Master? Maybe I could be of help. It is my duty to make sure you are guarded at all times. The madam won't be happy if she hears that I didn't protect you and let you leave without telling

    Alaric looked at him with shock. He couldn't believe what he was hearing. Norton had found out about his identity. How was that possible? He had always tried to keep it a secret, and Norton had known about everything already. "What? Why do you have that surprised look on your face? Did you think I would be fooled for long? I know who you are, and what you will always be. A pathetic loser who can hardly stand up for himself," Norton said. Alaric was burning with rage. He tried to hold himself back from punching Norton right in the face. "Is that the identity you are talking about?" He asked Norton. Norton shook his head. "No, that's not it. I know you always wanted to match up with us and act classy, but you will never attain that, Alaric. Don't forget, I also know what you did to my brother, Arnold," he said. "Arnold deserved whatever was coming to him. That is none of my problems. He was the one that wanted a brawl, and I simply gave it to him," he stated. Norton's face

    Alaric's head pounded on a roll, and he felt his body ache all over, sending strong waves of pain constantly weakening his bones. He groaned, and rolled a little, before attempting to open his eyes. He slowly opened his eyes, his vision blurry and his body aching. He tried to move, but a sharp pain shot through his abdomen, making him wince in pain. The haziness in his sight started to diminish, and he could see well the white ceiling of an unknown place. He rolled his eyes at every corner. This was a bizarre place, and he saw someone beside him. He shook, startled a little, and took a closer look at who it was - a man. The man was letting out sobs, and he recognized him as Steve. Alaric knew it was Steve immediately he took a closer look, and he got agitated. "What? Where am I? Where is this place?" He asked, still oblivious to his surroundings. Steve raised his head slowly. His eyes were swollen like he had been crying for a very long time, and Alaric was shocked at t

    Steve looked at Alaric with a confused face. He didn't know what he was up to, and why he was suddenly asking for the account information and assets of Mr. Jefferson. That was going to be a very hard task. "If I may ask, what do you need all that information for, young master? I'm not sure if I will be able to get that, because Mr. Jefferson is no longer under us. Everything won't be the same as it was, and probably all his account books would have been destroyed or deleted from every computer," Steve explained calmly. "I thought you said that he once worked under us? Isn't there a possibility that we can get the info from there?" Alaric asked, with strong determination running through him. "Yes, Young Master. He once worked under us. He however had a company of his own, which wasn't so stable, so he was the managerial head of one of our branches, but we had to let go of him because he breached the contract agreement," Steve said. Alaric nodded. "What did he do? Why was the cont

    Alaric brought out his phone from his pocket. He looked up at Sasha's number and thought about her. He was worried about her health, and what she might be like, but then, he couldn't forget his motive. No matter what, he needed to get rid of everyone. There was no one as an exception, and everyone who hurt him needed to pay for it. His eyes rolled to the side. Luckily, Steve had brought his laptop for business purposes. This way, it was going to be way easier. "If I can get through Mr. Jefferson's Account, and use the details from the records at Dustin Firms, then maybe Norton and Arnold's information would be there too. He said he was going to pass his business down to someone, which means he had already registered their accounts," he muttered to himself, thinking deeply about it. The picture was finally clear and he knew what he needed to do. His phone rang. It was Evelyn calling. "Yes, Evelyn," he answered, as he picked up the call. "Oh, young master. I've been trying to

    "What do you mean by that, Evelyn? Don't you know about Mr. Jefferson?" Alaric asked, quite confused. He thought that Evelyn, his secretary who had been working with the Wright Empire long before he was proclaimed the CEO would know about Mr. Jefferson, Norton's father, but nothing but pure mystery just seems to circle the whole situation. "That is not the case, young master. I'm not sure if I know about Mr. Jefferson's deal with Dustin Firms, but I do know that he was the managerial head of the firm consisting of so many engineering industries," she said. "Do you know anything else about Mr. Jefferson? What he was doing, and why he was the managerial head? Do you know anything about his deal with my father?" Alaric asked, quite desperate to know the truth behind everything. "I don't know about that, Young Master. I have not always been a personal assistant, so I am not sure about Sir Wright's deals with partners. However, I only know that Mr. Jefferson merged his company with Du

    "Did you just say 100 million dollars?" Alaric asked, surprised by what Steve said. There was no way he just heard $100 million! That was a huge sum of money that Norton's father took from the company! "Yes, young master. That's right. It's about a hundred million dollars that he embezzled, and he managed to do it while he was the head of Dustin Firms. He took it to his advantage, and was able to duck out some money out of the Wright Empire's monetary source," Steve explained. "How did he do that? Didn't anyone else know about this? How come he was taking money and no one suspected it?" Alaric asked, not sure if the whole story was true." "Unfortunately, he didn't do it all by himself. He had some people to help him carry out the plan, and together they perfectly scheduled how to shorten budget capital, and increase expenditure," Steve said. "How many people helped him in his crime? Where are they now? They need to be punished!" Alaric said, almost yelling, and he was furious.

    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.

    "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

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?

    “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

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

    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

    “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.

    Mr. Wright was a little bit surprised. Something like that had never happened before and he was worried that something was wrong.“Hope everything is alright, son?”“There's nothing wrong, Dad. It’s just that I need your help for answers because I have questions that are disturbing my peace,” he said. Mr. Wright raised a brow. “Really? Then tell me, son,” he said. “Come have a seat,” he offered, pointing at the seat across his. Alaric sat down and looked at his father.“First, Dad, before we begin, I want you to promise me something,” he said.“What is that, son?”“I want you to promise me that you will tell me the truth no matter what,” he said. The question made Mr. Wright feel worried that something was wrong. “Son, are you sure everything is alright?” Mr. Wright asked again to be sure.“I am perfectly fine, father. As long as you decide to tell me the truth of the whole story, then every answer I need will be clear to me,” he said.“I promise to tell you the truth, then, son,”

    Evelyn, surprised by how he was able to guess every single thing that was happening to her, tried to hide her shocked expression. “H… how?”“Don't worry, Evelyn. I told you that I would make sure you realize your love for me, and this is just the first step towards it. Look how you were able to calm me down without even doing much. That is the effect of your presence in my life,” he said. Tapping on the button that winded down the windows, he snapped his finger at the guard outside. He entered the car and ignited the engine.“Take me to the mansion. I want to see my father,” he commanded, and the guard nodded. Meanwhile, Evelyn, who hadn't said a word, rested a finger on her lips as she reminisced the feeling of Alaric's kiss that sent jolts of electricity throughout her body. The car drove to the mansion as Alaric had commanded. Evelyn was a little bit worried that he didn't decide to drop her off at the office, and she wondered why he was taking her with him.“Young master,” sh
