2024-12-09 15:16:12Clyde drove the Lamborghini bull, galloping all the way. He was like a dazzling laser light, attracting attention wherever he went.
He had taken the sports car to cruise the highway of Gold City and clear his head. After all he's been through, he didn't want to take any more chances. After a while, Clyde came to a public parking lot. He stepped out of the car. He wanted to scream out his frustration, but he knew it would be impossible to do so. How could he not see that he was being led on? He was being cheated on by the woman he loved most. And for what? Just a few thousand trium? What's a few thousand trium compared to the billions he had? 'I have to calm down. First of all, let me park this car someplace safe, I need to trek for a bit and plot out a plan on how deal with Seth and make them regret ever going against him. Clyde rushed back to his car, entered and drove off towards one of the most famous five star hotel in Gold City. [MAJORDOMO FIVE STAR BAL HARBOUR RESORT. GOLD CITY, ZIZOU NATION]. His car attracted so many unwanted attention and a few people took photos of the car. Clyde gave the keys to the Valet and walked into the hotel. He went straight to the receptionist who seemed to be a young lady of about twenty one or so. She was extremely pretty and had a professional smile planted on her face. “Good day Sir, welcome to Majordomo Five Star Bal Harbour Resort. What shall I do for you Sir?” the lady spoke in a professional manner. Although her face was of smile, but her tone showed otherwise. The moment she saw that Clyde entire clothing and shoe wasn't even worth up to four hundred trium, she could not help but feel disgusted at the guts Clyde had to step into this classic hotel reserved for the rich and wealthy. If it wasn't due to the fact of the hotel rule to attend to all kinds of customers first before any extensive action, she would have called security to throw him out. How dare a slum dweller, a beggar step foot into this prestigious hotel. Clyde noticed the disgust in her tone but didn't give a damn as his main objective right now was to park his car in their care while he plot against Seth and the Omega Lorenzo Royalty. He plans to replace them with his very own people. 'Let's see your face when I will walk into the company as the new owner. Hehehehehe.' Clyde was happy and giddy as he could not wait to see the gobsmacked faces of Seth and Clarissa. But for now, he has to settle the hotel and get his car here. He didn't want the Royal family to know he was playing 'Scorpion's Revenge' with Clarissa and Seth. “How much for a day?” Clyde asked casually. His casual tone made the lady frown. She couldn't believe the beggar in front of her was still standing there casually asking about the price of the hotel lodgings. Who does he think he is? Some sort of a big shot? Perhaps it's time she puts him in his place. “Sir, all rooms here are made for the rich and wealthy, and each room costs two thousand trium a day. I suggest you go to a motel Sir.” the lady spoke in an arrogant tone. “How much for the suite?” Clyde asked again in a casual tone as if he never heard what the lady said. He wasn't interested or took offense in her arrogance. He had met this very kind of people before, so it didn't bother him that she looked down on him. He always enjoyed the shock on their faces at the end of the day. During his time in the military, he always deliberately appear weak to his enemies so as to take them off guard.. it was always good to see that classic shock face and hear them stutter as they try to reconcile the present with the past. “That's five thousand trium a day.” the lady said with a smirk on her face. She looked at him in the eyes and was expecting Clyde to reply with 'I will get back to you later' and then leave the hotel. That way she will take the opportunity to call security and claim that Clyde, a beggar had just come to waste the time of the hotel, then have him thrown out. But what Clyde did next caused a chill to run down her spine. “There's twenty six days left in this month. Okay, I will rent the suite for the remaining twenty six days. Please do the transaction, I have somewhere else to be.” Clyde said and brought out his black diamond bank card. The card reserved only for those who were the top brass of the Empire. 'B.. black diamond bank card!?' the lady began sweating despite the air conditioning in the hotel. One must know that only those who are truly wealthy were given access to black diamond bank cards. Now she had actually wanted to call security to throw this man out? Wasn't she the one at the risk of being thrown out should the situation escalate? Heck! She may even be jailed! She felt like slapping herself ten times. With trembling hands, she took the bank card and ran the transaction. She could see the face of the man on the digital ID, this indicated that the beggar in front of her was truly the one who owns the card.. was he even to be called a beggar? Such a rich man who owns a black diamond card can get her fired for just speaking out of turn.. swear rolled down her forehead as her back was also drenched in sweat. “And please my car is in the parking lot. It's a black Lamborghini Aventador SVJ. I won't be going home with it as I will be traveling.” Clyde said to her with a smile on his face. Stumped! Gobsmacked! 'Lamborghini Aventador SVJ!?' “O.. okay Sir.” she stuttered. Clyde smiled again and left the hotel. “Now, that was satisfying.. time to do the same to Clarissa and the midget Seth.”

Clyde took a cab to the Omega Lorenzo Royalty company building. He knew what he had to do, but how to do it and get the best result was what he contemplated on.'I think I should call Danielle, she will give me the best idea there is.' he thought as he took out his phone and dialed a number.“Sir, do you need for anything?” Danielle's voice rang forth.“Yes. I want take over the Omega Lorenzo Royalty company. Make it happen. Also replace Seth's father with one of our trusted person.” Clyde spoke in a serious authoritative tone.“Hohohoho!” Danielle chuckled“The young master is out for revenge. I love it.

“What young master!?” Seth questioned manager Howard.“How can you call this lowly slum dweller 'young master'? Don't be deceived by this conman. He's nothing but a poor and wretched slum dweller.” Seth's frustration was already piled up.“Are saying I don't know who my Boss is?” Mister Howard questioned with a frown on his face. He was clearly angry at Seth's rambling, but this only excited Clyde more.'The higher they are, the bigger they fall.'Clyde felt someone staring at him, he turned around and saw Clarissa's eyes on him. She had this thoughtful expression on her face as if she was finally comprehending all that was happening.“Your Boss!? What Boss!? Let me elaborate these to you Mister Howard! That man sitting there is the full definition of poverty. If he was rich enough to buy this building, then he won't be living in that shack at the slums!” Seth then turned to Clarissa.“If he was so rich, it won't be easy for me to get under the pant of his wife! He's so poor that hi

BADOOM!It felt as if an atomic had been dropped on Seth. He certainly could not believe what he was hearing; did the slum dweller just told him to clear out his office or else he would call security? No, he must have misheard. There's no way that the low sonofabitch who used to work as cleaner will suddenly become the Boss.'And where the hell is Dad!?' Seth could not help but panic. Just then the door opened and Seth's father stepped in.Mister Mandeep was average in height and bald, he was just a little above fifty but now he looked like he's aged eighty.“Dad! Right on time. This trash here says he now owns the company and he even had the guts to ask me to clear out my office in five minutes else he would call security to throw me out.” Seth laid out his complain but his father didn't even once glance at him.

Seth stood there, holding the phone to his ear, his mind struggling to process what had just happened. The words from the bank manager seemed like a bad joke: his accounts, his entire wealth, were frozen indefinitely. There was no way this was real.“What the hell is this!?” Seth yelled at the now silent phone, his voice trembling with disbelief. His grip tightened, as if the pressure could somehow reverse the bank’s decision. His heart raced, and he could feel the anger and panic rising like a tidal wave.He glanced at his father, expecting some kind of support, but Mister Mandeep’s face was ashen. The old man was staring at the floor, wringing his hands as if trying to wish away the nightmare unfolding around them.“Dad! Tell them to fix this! Tell them that this is a mistake!” Seth’s voice cracked as he turned to Mister Mandeep. But his father remained silent, too terrified to utter a word.In the silence that followed, Clyde’s calm voice cut through the tension.“Everything you’ve

If stares could kill, his was definitely throwing daggers at Clyde. “How dare you!!” He roared and opted to get physical with him. The security men around held him down immediately. He struggled to be set free but they held him in strong bonds, he only managed to throw fists in the air. “How dare you lock up all my accounts and funds! Who do you think you are, huh? You wreck!You'll pay for this! Mark my words!” He threatened, pointing fingers at him.“Take him out of my company. I don't need a psycho in my business premises.” Clyde said nonchalantly_ obviously he wasn't bothered by any of these at all.“You heard the Boss! Get this filth out of here!” Mr. Howard yelled at the security guards when he noticed their sluggishness. They quickly picked Seth up in the air and carried him out of the company.“This isn't over Clyde! You hear! This isn't over!! I'll deal with you! You haven't seen the last of m

Who would have thought Clyde was a billionaire?“Clarissa?” Rachael called but heard no response. She was in the kitchen making dinner. She heard someone enter the house, she thought it was Clarissa and so she waited for her to talk or call out her name as she was fond of but instead, it was a long gravy silence that ensued. She called out her name again, yet no response.. she decided to find out who it was with her special weapon, the frying pan.“Oh! it's just you.” She heaved a sigh of relief when she saw her. “Why didn't you answer me?” She fumed.“Clarissa_?” She called, stunned at Clarissa's awful appearance and calm demeanor, she lowered her weapon and approached her.“Don't!_” Clarissa warned. “Stay away f

There's a saying, the higher the throne, the greater the opposition. Seth knew one truth about power: Every throne invites opposition. Enemies lurked in every shadow, families lie in wait for the heirs of the throne to falter. A single misstep could bring an entire dynasty crashing down. The Darkfang dynasty was no exception. The Kylain family, sworn enemies of the Darkfangs for generations, had long vied for the Zizou throne. Their power rivaled the Darkfangs', with family members entrenched in the empire’s military ranks, weaving quiet, sinister schemes. The two families' rivalry had left a trail of blood and betrayal, but today, Seth Mandeep was about to cross enemy lines—not for conquest, but for alliance. He stood before the towers of the mighty Kylain dynasty. The gates were monumental, a fortress of iron, brass, and steel. They were impenetrable to anyone without the proper validation, and even if someone managed to breach them, the sprawling security network of guards a

Is he Jealous?Back at the hotel, Danielle paced the room. Clyde’s abrupt departure left her uneasy, and the news report on the tv hadn’t helped. She couldn’t shake the image of Clarissa’s bloody, broken body from her mind.She felt a pang of guilt and pain. She felt it was all her fault. For shutting the door at her without letting her get to speak to Clyde. Maybe that would've changed everything.The sound of the door creaking open made her spin around. Clyde stood there, his face unreadable.“Young Master,” she said, her voice a mix of relief and worry. “What’s going on? You left like the city was on fire.”He stepped inside, his movements deliberate. “It’s complicated,” he muttered, brushing past her.Danielle grabbed his arm, forcing him to stop. “Don’t give me that. Tell me the truth. What's going on?”Clyde sighed, running a hand through his hair. For a moment, he softened and she saw the storm raging inside him. “Clarissa’s in the hospital,” he admitted. “Someone ran her off t

He took heavy, mechanical strides towards the Tv, his pulse pounded like a war drum in his ears, his mind confused. He snatched the remote from the table and pressed the power button, channel after channel he kept searching, blurred past them until he tuned to the local tv station, he froze.The screen showed Clarissa’s body being carried from the mangled wreck of an accident site on a stretcher and into an ambulance van.Security men scattered around the venue as they kept tags on the scene—exhibits and evidence. Rolling the usual caution tape over the part the accident took place.Her limbs were soaked in blood, she looked more like a broken doll than a living person.

SassyClarissa gazed up at the towering skyscraper before her. The building seemed endless, its reflective windows catching the glow of the late afternoon sun, and freshly installed flowerbeds added a vibrant touch to its modern aesthetic. She glanced at her phone, double-checking the address Rachael had sent her. It was the right place.The hotel was breathtaking. Memories flooded her mind—her first and only visit to a five-star hotel years ago with her father, back when he was still a man of importance. If Clyde was here now, it only confirmed what she’d heard—he had wealth beyond imagination.Taking a deep breath, she smoothed her dress and clicked her stiletto heels against the paved path leading to the entrance.*A man watching keenly from the comfort of his car stared at Clarissa. He picked up his phone and placed a call.“Target sighted. What should I do?” He said.“Make it swift and quick. Make it natural.. no suspicions.” The voice at the other end instructed.“Okay boss.” H

A mere assistantOutside the palace_The night air was crisp, carrying the faint scent of jasmine from the palace gardens. The tension between them was almost tangible as Clyde tossed the sleek leather luggage into the boot of the newly released, limited-edition Mercedes. Only four of its kind existed in the entire world, and he was privileged to own one.Danielle stood nearby, leaning casually against the car. A book was in her hands, her glasses perched delicately on her nose, giving her an air of quiet brilliance.She looked every bit the intellectual, lost in her own world, but Clyde couldn't take his eyes off her. A smile tugged at his lips, unbidden, as admiration coursed through him."All set. Let's go," he said, stepping closer, his voice low and warm.She raised her head from the book, her expression calm but unreadable. "Sure," she replied, moving to open the car door. But his hand shot out, stopping her."Uh…" He hesitated, his usual confidence faltering. "Are we still goin

The world belongs to the strongIn the dimly lit VIP room of his favorite club, Seth sat ensconced in luxury.He leaned back on the plush leather couch, surrounded by women laughing at his every word.His expensive whiskey glistened in the dim light as he reveled in their attention. His hands wandered freely, eliciting giggles, and his laughter boomed across the room, a testament to his dominance and indulgence.The mood shifted abruptly when the doors bursted open. Four men in black stormed in, their faces concealed by menacing masks. Their mere presence sent the women screaming and scrambling for the exits, their high heels clacking against the floor in desperation.Seth froze, his smirk fading. His sharp eyes caught the fifth figure entering the room—a mountain of a man, towering and broad-shouldered. Dark hair spilled over his hoodie, which hung like a cape, casting an ominous shadow over his face.As soon as he crossed the threshold, the man lunged forward, gripping Seth by the t

Unspoken emotions*“I miss her too,” Danielle whispered, her voice trembling.Without thinking, she reached for Robin and pulled him into a hug. He stiffened for a moment, then melted into her embrace, his arms wrapping around her as if holding onto something precious.The two of them stood there, the weight of their shared grief pressing down on them in the shadow of their mother’s grave. The world around them seemed to disappear as they held each other, the silence broken only by the quiet rustle of the wind.“I wish she could see us now,” Robin murmured, his voice thick with emotion. “See what we’ve become.”Danielle closed her eyes, letting the tears fall freely. “She would be proud. Of both of us.”Robin pulled back slightly, his eyes searching hers, his face a mixture of sorrow and longing. “You think so?”“I know so,” Danielle said firmly, her voice steady despite the storm raging inside her. She managed a small smile, brushing a stray strand of hair from his face. “You’re eve

A determined HeartThe first day was grueling. The recruits were subjected to endless drills—running, climbing, sparring, and endurance tests. By the end of it, Danielle’s muscles burned, her hands were blistered, and her vision swam with exhaustion.“Still standing?” Lythos asked as she staggered to the line where the others stood.“Yes, sir,” Danielle gasped, barely able to catch her breath.“Good. Tomorrow will be harder.”The boys didn’t make it any easier. They teased her relentlessly, sabotaging her equipment and tripping her during drills. But Danielle didn’t retaliate. She focused on her training, pushing herself harder with every challenge.The turning point came during a sparring match. The trainees were paired off to practice combat techniques, and Danielle was matched against Garrick, a towering boy with a cocky grin.“This’ll be quick,” Garrick said, brandishing his wooden sword.Danielle said nothing, gripping her weapon tightly.The match began, and Garrick came at her

A skinny, bookish man, but a man nonetheless.”Robin adjusted his glasses, a sheepish smile on his face. “I’ll take that as a compliment.”Danielle’s gaze softened. “It is. I’m proud of you. You’ve always been destined for great things, and I can see you’re well on your way.”He blushed but tried to contain it.She held his hands, her eyes scanning his face. “How has it been over there?”Robin adjusted his glasses, a nervous smile tugging at his lips. “Busy with studies, mostly. But I brought something for you.” He rummaged through his coat pocket, his movements precise and deliberate.Danielle watched him with quiet admiration. Her little brother was now a man, though his slender frame, pale complexion, and tired eyes told her he had likely been pushing himself too hard.From his pocket, Robin produced a small objec

Mom would be proudThe Gold City chapter of Clyde’s journey had come to an end. The artifact was safe, and his mission complete. Yet, as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows over the palace grounds, his thoughts returned to Marula.The insurgents remained a looming threat. Though his cover had been blown, Clyde vowed to continue the fight against them, working from the shadows.For now, the road back to Marula awaited—a path paved with danger, uncertainty, and the weight of unfinished business.*Danielle had one wish before leaving for Marula with Clyde: to visit her mother’s grave.As she made her way to the graveyard, the air grew colder, and the wind carried the faint rustle of leaves. The moon bathed the path in silver light, lending an eerie tranquility to the night.Approaching the grave site, Danielle froze. A dark, frail silhouette knelt before the cremated tombstone. The figure was wrapped in a long coat, holding a bouquet of freshly cut roses. He sniffled
