"Young Master, don't you think it's quite too much?" John asked looking at Alex as they walked out of the Villa."I helped you ask for the name of the family you were looking for so that the search would be easier." Alex shrugged.He could tell that John was hiding something from him, but he couldn't tell what he was so he just gave the latter that reply."I understand young master." John nodded, not noticing anything off about Alex."So where should we head to now?" John asked as they got into the car."To the Smiths family" Alex laughed getting into the car."Sir, isn't that dangerous?" John asked looking at Alex in fear.This was one of the reasons, he didn't want Alex to know which family it was. He was afraid that he was going to do something out of it. Then everything would be lost."Why is it dangerous?" Alex inquired, raising his brows, a smile surfacing on his lips."We....we." John stuttered not knowing what to say."We don't know what stand they have towards us, so we can't
"Who the heck are you?" One of the men frowned looking at Alex with a frown on his face."As I've said before, you're my uncle and I'm your Nephew." Alex laughed walking towards one of the sofas and sitting down."I don't remember having a nephew like you." The man sneered looking at Alex in disgust."Well I don't blame you." Alex laughed."How would you remember having a nephew like me when you almost killed me when I was little.""What the heck do you think you're saying?" The man flew into rage hearing Alex's words."Yeah, you don't have to look at me that way, I'm talking to you all, you're guilty of trying to kill me when i was little." Alex continued, not giving them any face."Boy, you're rude, get your manners right, or you leave this place right away" The old man suddenly said, looking at Alex with a slight frown."Old man, you're my grandfather, and yet, you want to chase your grandson away. What you did few years back hasn't been enough right?" Alex chuckled standing up fro
"Mr. Alex, I received a call yesterday?" Tesla's voice came from the other end of the phone."What was the call all about?" Alex Inquired, a wicked smile escaping from his lips."It was the executives and they said they wanted to meet with me to discuss something crucial to the company." Tesla hesitated for a while before she replied."Then what did you tell them?" Alex inquired, feeling rather amused."I told them that I wasn't in the Capital," Tesla replied."Did they ask when you'll be back?""Yeah, they did.""What did you say," Alex asked, the smile on his face becoming wider."I did tell them that I'm on a business trip which would take me some months, so it was going to take quite a few months before I returned." Tesla replied."That's perfect." Alex laughed."Is there anything you would like me to do?" Tesla inquired."Nope, not necessarily." Alex shook his head."Just make sure to tell. me whenever they call you again, that's all I need to know." Alex smiled."Yes." Tesla re
(Next Day)"Mr. Alex, I received another call today," Tesla said over the phone."Again?" Alex asked, a smile surfacing on his face."Yes Mr. Alex," Tesla replied."What did they say they want?" Alex asked, knowing well that the person behind them was getting impatient."They said they wanted to know the exact time that I'll be coming back and if there's no exact time that I should send over my location, that they will come over instead." Tesla replied."I see," Alex muttered under his breath."So what should I do?" Tesla asked, Alex could feel the unease in her voice."I'll come over to Atlanta in the next two days. Tell them you're in Atlanta and they should come over if they want to talk." Alex replied after a while.He was wondering why the other party was just so impatient. Seemed like they wanted to acquire the company so so quickly. Why were they in a rush?The company was not too big, so why were they excited, or could there be some other reasons?"Alright, sir," Tesla replied
(Two Days Later)"This should be it," Alex smiled walking toward the plane."Take care young master." John nodded with a smile on his face looking at Alex leave.It was already two days and Alex had shaken up the Capital. All the families were now aware of his existence and had quite a fear of him."If you need anything, just make sure to call me and I'll call right away." Alex said turning to look at John."Don't worry I will." John laughed looking at Alex departing.Alex smiled as he walked towards the plane feeling good. This was the maximum effect that he wanted.The whole of the capital had been shaken up cause of him. He didn't do much. After looking into his company, he saw that it was not just one company that was attacking it.It was more like a tug of war between the lesser families. The strongest was going to get it.They were first going to do a pull and push with Alex until he lost hold of the company, after that it was going to continue between themselves.So in short, t
"Young Master." Lucas' voice came just as Alex alighted from the plane."You're here already." Alex forced a smile looking at Lucas who was already waiting for him with a car."Yes sir." Lucas forced a laugh leading Alex to the car.He was just too excited for Alex's arrival as he knew that almost all of his problems would be solved as long as Alex came back.Though he wanted to get on with it as soon as he could, he knew he had to restrain himself, or else it was going to be another story."What about Tesla?" Alex asked, getting into the car."As per you've said, she's still at home while she made the executives believe that she was coming over." Lucas replied."There's a change in plans," Alex said after a while."What's that sir?" Lucas asked looking at Alex in shock wanting to know what the change was."Tesla would have to go and meet the executives, I won't go on her behalf anymore." Alex replied with a smile."But...""Don't worry, I understand the sudden change, but the situati
"Young Master, what should we do now.." Lucas asked looking at Alex with a frown...."We do nothing." Alex laughed, a glint flashing in his eyes.The Smiths had been targeting him, it was just that they had decided to use the back hand method and targeted those in Atlanta.Well that was a good strategy, but it was their bad luck that he came back too soon, or else they would have caused his company a huge loss.."This information, how many people in the company know about it?" Alex asked after a while."Well, apart from myself, just a person knows about it." Lucas replied almost Immediately."Good." Alex nodded in satisfaction."Now what you'll do for me is to keep that information to yourself." Alex continued."No one apart from you, that person and I should know about it." Alex Instructed."Yes sir." Lucas nodded trembling as he couldn't believe that Alex wasn't going to pursue the matter.He had thought that he was going to blame him for being careless, but the latter didn't even s
(The Next Day Evening)"Young Master, it's already evening time, the people you sent for have arrived and are all waiting for you." Lucas's voice came causing Alex who was lying on the bed to turn around while he opened his eyes slightly."Young Master, it's not good to keep them waiting for too long." Lucas sighed as he continued.The ones whom the Young Master had sent for had hurried over and had been in Atlanta since afternoon. Now it was already evening, and the Young Master was still sleeping which made Lucas worried.Though the Young Master didn't sleep the night before, he had been sleeping since morning and it was already evening, so he had no other choice but to go and check up on him."Younger Master." Lucas shook his head and called again."Mmmmm." Alex yawned as he opened his eyes slightly and sat up looking at Lucas blankly."Young Master, the ones you sent for have already arrived and have been waiting for you," Lucas said as he looked at Alex."Alright, Alright."
