The Rise Of The Penniless Son-in-law CHAPTER 179
Alex walked with Andrew into the living room, and on television, it was broadcast live with a lot of FBI in front of the orphanage home. "Isn't that where you grew up?" Andrew stared back at Alex, who was as surprised as Andrew was. "What is Xavier getting at by taking the orphanage hostage? Alex tried to call some of the orphanage's main lines, but it wasn't going through. "I guess they cut off all the communication lines." Andrew looked at him. Judith and the rest of the staff all came out to look at the news being displayed. All of them knew how passionate Alex was about where he grew up, and the thought of Xavier endangering his single life was scary. Alex rubbed his hand gently over his hair as he failed to call Agent Miller's number. "Have you seen the news?" "What news, Alex? You know I am a very busy man. Jacob Wills has just been killed by Xavier, and we are at the station right now. "What do you mean, killed? He has just taken the whole orphanage hostage." Alex replied

The body of Jacob Wills was immediately arranged for burial. Charlotte and her family bought a place to bury Thier dead while they said Thier fib goodbyes. Claire was devastated and vowed to make Xavier pay for what he had done, one way or another. "He is not getting away with this, mother," Claire said, looking at Charlotte, who was still in mourning. "I heard they have him surrounded already. He is going after Alex Davis." Claire's brother said, looking at both Claire and Charlotte."I need to get some sleep." Charlotte said, softly asking for some time alone.Claire walked into the living room and switched on the television, and the news was all about Xavier taking the orphanage hostage. Benjamin looked at Claire and said, "Shouldn't the FBI have this under control by now?" "I think they are trying their best, but Xavier is just not any man. I am sure he has a plan already." Claire replied "Do you know Ruby has been found dead?" Ben said it again, looking at Claire's face. "Wha

Back in Maimi, Alex had called Paulina, asking her to make sure she found Henrietta at all costs. He was going to stall for time as soon as possible to make sure they had the document. "I am trying, Alex. You know Maimi is a big country, and finding Henrietta is like finding a golden fish in the middle of an ocean." "I know what I am asking of you, honey, but the fate of the innocent kids rests on this. They are going to die if Xavier doesn't get what he wants." Alex replied "I will try my best to locate her, although I have news about her already. I think she is trying to sell the documents to some rich man in the city here. I just need to track who it is and make a deal with him." Henrietta replied, looking at Naomi, who wanted to speak with her father. "How is she?" Alex asked over the phone. "She is here, and she wants to say hi." Paulina smiled "Dad, when are you coming over?" Naomi's voice made Alex laugh."Soon, baby. We are getting over the hostage case soon, and I am com

"Who has it?" Paulina asked, looking at her face. "Simon does." Henrietta replied. "Where are you meeting with him, or is this just another plan of yours?" Paulina looked at her face. The tension was high as they took their seats. Paulina immediately took out her phone and called Alex. "I think you might need to stall for some time, or better yet, come down to Maimi. It looks like Henrietta doesn't have the documents." Alex rubbed his hands over his hair gently as he listened to everything Paulina was saying. "I can't come down to Maimi at the moment. I need to sort out what is going on here." Alex replied "What about Henrietta?" Alex added "She is right here with me." Paulina replied, passing the phone to her. Henrietta shook as Alex spoke to her, and Paulina looked at her and wondered what Alex said to her. The line was cut off: "I can help you find him." Henrietta looked at Paulina. "You mean Simon?" "Yes, I know where he might be hiding." Henrietta said this again, looking a

"Paulina has the document." Alex said it with a happy face. "That is good, but don't tell me you are going to give the documents to Xavier." Andrew's face turned pale. The two men stopped talking and looked at themselves. "I haven't thought much about it. I think the fake document you gave me might come in handy, but then what would you do if Xavier knew it was a fake? Then I would be risking the children's lives for a piece of paper." Alex replied "Listen to me, Alex Davis, that document isn't just any document, and it is definitely not a piece of paper. It is a lineage of business passed to your grandfather and was supposed to pass to your father and then finally to you. The document is the secret of mining and how to make your business excel. I think you need to decide what you're finally going to do with it when it gets back into your hand." Andrew advised as he stepped outside his study room. Alex sighed, knowing what Andrew said was true. He needed a plan that could work witho

Victor was just packing his things when he heard a gentle knock at the door. "Hello, who is it?" He said he was gently walking towards the door with his pistol. The door was kicked down by Joe's kick, and he was standing face-to-face with Victor. "Who are you, and what audacity do you have to kick down my door?" Victor shouted at him. " Me?" Joe asked, looking back to see if Victor was really talking down on him. "Are you Victor?" Joe asked, dipping his hand into his jacket. Victor quickly pointed the gun at him and said, "II will gun you down if you try reaching for your pocket." "You have got some balls." Joe replied, bringing out the picture to confirm if he was really standing before Victor. "You do know that everyone who betrayed Xavier Richmond doesn't leave to tell the story, so why do you?" Joe asked, and before he could finish his statement, Victor shot at him. Joe was fast; he managed to dodge the bullet and looked at Victor. "Well, you ain't as dumb as I think. Here is wh

"No, we didn't. Xavier managed to escape with Alex taken as his prisoner." Agent Miller reported the case to Steve. "I need all the FBI agents out there looking for him. Make sure he is caught." Steve ordered Agent Miller and Alice immediately gathered more men to look for Xavier. The bodies were left over for the forensics team to work on. The police were on their sirens as they all drove into the street looking for Xavier and Alex. The news was aired on television and all social media platforms about Xavier's escape. The city was on high alert, with every available law enforcement officer on the lookout for the fugitives. The streets were flooded with blue and red lights, and the air was thick with tension.***************************************************************Victor stumbled through the alleyways, his breath coming in short, painful gasps. His side ached from the fall, and he knew he needed to find a place to hide, and fast. The shards of glass had left deep cuts on his

Xavier picked up his phone and looked at Claire. "Make sure he doesn't go anywhere." He said it with a stern look on his face. Claire looked at him with disdain and wondered why she would be receiving orders from a man who killed her father. "What are you doing here, Claire?" Alex looked up to meet her gaze. "I am going to kill him." She replied sharply, looking at Alex, who was tired."Listen to me, Claire; whatever you think of doing has to stop. Get the police and let them know where I am." Alex looked at her, but she was bent on having things done her own way. "Don't tell me what to do, Alex. We are not a couple any more, remember?" Claire snapped The pain of losing her mother and father at the same time was unbearable. Perhaps the Wills deserved everything that was coming their way. Xavier walked back into the house. "We are having companies soon," he said with a smirk."Remind me, how did you know I was here once again?" Xavier asked and looked at Claire. "I was at the orph
