The Rise of Arthur McCain Chapter 110
"Forgive me for being so unconcerned. I've been working with you for over two months but haven't bothered to know your name. I'm sorry about that. Since you're already working for me, I'd like to know what your name is."The taxi driver smiled. He was also at fault. He should have gone ahead and told Arthur his name even without him asking. "It's Dario and I'm happy to be at your service."Arthur nodded his head and after a long pause, he said to the man. "Alright, Dario. I'm Arthur. Arthur McCain."With a cheerful grin on his face, Dario nodded and continued driving. He already knew Arthur's name some time ago.A while later, they pulled over at one of the addresses and Dario pointed to the place.Since the room number was part of the messages that was sent by Oscar, Arthur wanted to go over and knock on the door of Mr. Leo's house but decided to wait. Mr. Leo was one of the men who joined forces with Rosaline and sent him to prison. Arthur was on a mission to pay them with their co

"How do you know about that?"Arthur began to laugh at him. Strolling around the place, Arthur went to stand before Mr. Leo with a smirk on his face."Gregg, my father was merciful to you and your partner in crime. Unfortunately, I'm not my father. You conspired and framed me after being paid a huge amount of money by Rosaline, my so-called stepmother. Because of what you did. I dropped out of school and was sent to prison.""But, it wasn't me who sent you to prison. It was Rosaline who made your Dad do it." Mr. Leo retorted."But you had a hand in it. You framed me and now I've come to make you pay." Mr. Leo was becoming more scared. Especially because Arthur knew about his interview. But how did he find out about that?"How did I find out about the interview?" Arthur jolted him out of his thoughts and Mr. Leo gaped at him. "Well, you should be scared of me because you have no idea what I can do to end your career. I should have arrested you but won't do that. You'll never get a goo

"Let me guess, your partner in crime has been calling you. Well, he has just received his own dose and of my payback. I know you're coming back from an interview. You're also very qualified for the position but don't worry, you won't receive a call from them about any employment. The company belongs to me and you're never getting another job."Mr. Mason's jaws dropped. "Ho… How did you…" He paused in his words when his phone began to ring again."Go ahead and pick your call, then you'll confirm my words."Reluctantly, Mr. Mason picked up the call and placed the phone on his ears while throwing glances at Adam."Hello.""Arthur McCain just left my house. I think he's heading to yours. Maybe you should desist from going home at the moment." Mr Leo tried to warn his colleague but it was already too late for that.Well, the warning was no use because Arthur didn't need to meet with them face to face before making them pay."I think we're in more trouble because of joining forces with Rosa

Even though Anna and Hannah were twins, they had different voices and Arthur could differentiate them through it. It was why he learned that Annah was standing before him."Nice to meet you again, dear Anna." With his face tilted, Arthur spoke in a sullen voice and could imagine the look on the lady's face. She froze at a spot and her face paled instantly.Dario stared at Arthur open-mouthed and also directed his gaze back to the woman standing before them. He had never seen her before. However, the look on her face was like someone who had seen a ghost.Anna was speechless and could not get herself to utter a word.Arthur pretended not to notice her discomfort and went ahead to make an order."Come on, Dario. Go ahead and make your own order. I'm sure their food will have a nice taste."Hesitantly, the man awkwardly pointed to some dishes and Anna took note. She quietly turned around and began to walk away."Be snappy about it." Arthur ordered with a smirk on his face. He could see

After saying the words in his mind, the waiter went ahead and asked him the question without mincing words. "Sir, how did you know about the twins who work here? I'm quite sure you didn't see both of them together."Arthur glanced at the man and he stopped asking questions. Instead, he went ahead to call Anna and Hannah. As the girls hesitantly approached Arthur, the waiter stood a distance away and watched what was going to transpire between Arthur and them."Sir, you called us. Is there anything you want any of us to do for you?" Anna managed to mutter amidst a shaky voice. They were sweating even though the place was cool.The sisters had tasted Arthur's wrath and was afraid he'd cause them to lose their current jobs if they disobeyed him.Arthur remained silent. After a moment of silence, Arthur took out his wallet and brought out some money. "This is for our meals while the extra is for you two. I know you don't have any money after spending all your money to get yourself out o

Since he took a day off, Arthur decided to explore the city. He couldn't possibly go home very early and do nothing. After a little adventure with Dario, he decided to wait for Jesse and Jenny at their residence.The sisters were not yet back from work so he waited in the car. While waiting, Arthur thought of ways to get back with Jesse. What if Jenny refused to help? What if she tries and Jesse still refuses to accept him back? Either way, he'd still give it a trial. Who knows, Jesse might come around and let him back into her life.After waiting for half an hour, Jesse's car drove by and Arthur quickly came out of the car. He rushed towards the place and stood before their car that was being parked at the garage of the place.Jenny was the first to come out of the car with a warm smile on her face. "Hi, Arthur. I mean, Mr. McCain."Arthur wanted to laugh but managed to keep a serious face."Hi, Jenny. There's no need to be formal here. We're friends, aren't we? I'm still that guy y

"It's been a while since we chatted? Tell me, what has been happening around you?" Nick cornered Arthur the next day at work as soon as he got into the mall.Indeed, Nick no longer understood what was happening with Arthur. He also noticed that the latter hadn't come to him for some advice. On the other hand, Arthur could not tell the man anything because Jesse was still angry with him. It was only her who knew about his real identity."Arthur, what have you been up to?""Uh, nothing. I've just been busy?" Arthur replied and turned his face away. He knew where the conversation would lead to and was trying to avoid it."You've been busy with what? Tell me, how's it going with you and Jesse? Have you been able to get her to forgive you? Why does it look like you're forgetting about me?" Nick was grinning as he asked and Arthur could not help but let out a chuckle. He wished it was indeed the way Nick had spoken. Unfortunately, Jesse didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore.

"I was only trying to help. Wait, how did you know what I discussed with Ma'am Jesse? What if it was about work?"Arthur shook his head. "I'm sure it wasn't about work. The way you left the discussion and made your way to the elevator."Nick was at a loss for words. After a deep sigh, he said to the young man before him. "Ok. I went to speak with her on your behalf. I only want what's best for you, Arthur. It's the reason I tried to help."Stretching out his left hand, Nick placed it on his shoulders. "I saw the look on her face and I know that she also misses you. It won't be long until you two get back together. Just be hopeful. See you around, Arthur."With that, Nick began to walk away from him. Arthur sighed and went to his assigned post. He was at the place when Jesse approached him.The noise from Jesse's footsteps made him lift his cocked head. In the next few seconds, Jesse stood before him with an indifferent expression."Uh, How are you doing?"Arthur's jaws dropped. Did J

“Dad?”Arthur could not help but to panic when Gregg suddenly went mute. He had just said something to Bryan. Why was he not speaking again?Tilting himself, he reached out and began to shake his father. “Dad?”“Doctor, please find out what is wrong with my Dad. He's no longer moving.”Swiftly, the doctor went ahead to check Gregg's vitals while Arthur turned to glare at Bryan. He was praying in his heart and hoping that nothing happens to his father.After about a minute, the doctor lifted himself and turned to them with a very sad face. “I think we should take my dad to the hospital.” Arthur suggested even before the doctor was able to say something.He beckoned on Kimora and the guards to come and carry Gregg. However, the doctor stopped him.“There won't be any need for that because your Dad is gone. He's dead.”“No.” Arthur screamed and fell on his father's body, shaking it vigorously.“Dad, no. Please don't do this to me. Wake up and talk to me.”Bryan, who was kneeling on the

With a stunned look, Arthur rushed towards his father. He tilted himself and tried to lift Gregg's face which was not visible to him. “Dad?”That moment when his father did not open his eyes, Arthur's heart began to pound hard. He thought that Gregg was dead.Turning to face Kimora, Arthur asked him with a raised voice. “What happened to him? I thought you said that he wanted to see me.”“Yes, that's what he said to me a while ago. Maybe he slept off before you came.”Without wasting any more time, Arthur checked Gregg and saw that he still had a pulse before he began to shake him. “Dad, wake up.” “Kimora, call the doctor immediately. I think my Dad's not well.”While he was vigorously shaking his father, the man gradually opened his eyes and called out his name.“Arthur, you're here.”“Oh, Dad. You scared me. Are you okay?” Arthur let out a deep sigh as he kept gaping at his father.He tried to help him sit up but Gregg refused. “I'm ok this way.”“Are you sure?”“Yeah, I'm sure. I

Jesse stood up and started towards the door but Nick didn't follow him. He was still so dumbfounded.Dazed, he kept staring intently at Arthur and also at the sisters.“Um, Sir….. Do you mean, uh… Did you just promote me as the new manager of this great organization?”With a smile that reached his eyes, Arthur nodded at him. “Yeah, I just did that. You're now the manager of this organization and I hope you'll not disappoint.”Placing his left hand on his mouth, Nick let out a gasp. “Oh my God. Wow!” Out of impulse, he fell on the ground and began to thank Arthur. “Thank you so much Sir. This is really unbelievable.”“Thank you, Thank you Sir.” Nick kept appreciating him. He could not also get himself to address him as Arthur after what he had just done for him.Arthur has changed his status. From a mall guard to a manager. It was indeed a very huge elevation.“It's ok Nick, stand up. You don't have to fall on the ground to show your appreciation. I can already see how grateful you ar

They were her ex boyfriend and ex friend, Anderson and Michael. The duo came to shop at the mall when they saw the media hovering around some people. The couple decided to find out what was going on. It was then that they saw Jesse and her sister standing alongside some rich young guy who just announced himself as a rich heir.Once their eyes met with each other, Jesse smiled and raised her brows at them before clinging tightly onto Arthur's arm. She no longer cared about the multiple cameras before her face. At the moment, she just wanted her ex friend and ex boyfriend to feel envious of her.When Arthur was no longer interested in replying to their numerous questions, he turned around and began to walk into the mall together with Jesse and Jenny. As they made their way into the mall, the journalists wanted to follow after them but were stopped by the bodyguards and the other security guards.Anderson and Michael could not get themselves to go into the mall as they stood back outside

“But I didn't ask you to kidnap anyone. I didn't ask you to commit a crime. Why did you have to kidnap Arthur's girlfriend? You should have….”“That's enough mom.” Janet replied with her voice raised as she turned around and faced her mother. Her raised voice distracted the others and an officer came to give her a stern warning.When the police officer left, Janet let out a deep sigh before saying to her mother. “It was all your fault, Mom. You pushed me into doing what I did. If you were ever a good mother, I would not have turned out like this and ended up here.”After glaring at her mother one last time, Janet snorted at her. “Just get me a good lawyer. That's the only help you can offer right now.”Stella was about to say something when a policeman came to meet them. “Ma'am, you should leave now. You've had enough time with her. Just go and get a lawyer because she'll be charged to court soon.”Without another word, Stella turned around and left the place to get a good lawyer.Des

“Please, have pity on my daughter.” Stella's voice was heard as she ran towards them and fell on her knees before Arthur.“Please, forgive Janet. I promise that she'll never do anything like this again.”Stella, Janet's mother, had been informed of her daughter's current predicament. She was also informed of her actions that led to her arrest so she hurried to the station.Even though she pushed Janet into such action, she never asked her daughter to commit a crime just to get money. However, she also took some blame. She had not been a good mother but Janet was still her daughter and she loves her dearly.“Arthur, for old times sake, please don't send my daughter to jail.”The trio watched the woman with disdain and exchanged glances. They said nothing at first. Turning to Jesse, Stella held onto her legs. “Ma'am, I understand that you're the victim. But please forgive my daughter and talk to your boyfriend. I promise you that nothing like this will ever happen again, I'll make sure

Swiftly, he took out his phone to pick the call. It was from the police and they had found Jesse.Jenny watched in anticipation as Arthur answered the call. She was even distracting his conversations with the police.“Is that the police? I hope they have good news this time?” Although from Arthur's tone, she could deduce that it was the news she had been anticipating.Arthur raised a finger at her and she stopped disrupting his call. However, she was already pacing the place in restlessness.“Ok, we'll be on our way.” With so much delight, Arthur turned to Jenny and nodded at her. “Jesse's has been found. I told you that the police will find her.”“Wow! That's great. Come on, let's go meet her. In fact, I need you to put a call through to that number which just called and let them give the phone to Jesse.”Jenny had started walking towards the car but stopped in her tracks to talk to Arthur.“Hurry up and dial the number. I want to speak with Jesse to find out how she's doing. I hope

“Please, just go back home and let us do our job. We understand that you're trying to help. However, the best way you can help now is by not getting involved so as not to escalate the whole situation.”After a long pause, Arthur nodded at the policemen and instructed Dario.“Please drive back home.”“Right away Sir.”The officers drove away from there while Dario turned to the direction leading to Arthur's home.Meanwhile, the policemen that had been following Janet were surprised to see her pull over at her mother's coffee shop. From where they were watching, they saw her alight from the car and started towards the door of the shop.They had thought that she had other places to go. After waiting fruitlessly for some time, one of the men stylishly went closer to her car and placed a tracker on it. After that, they left the place.The police were certain that Janet knew about their presence which was why she stayed put at the coffee shop.After successfully placing the tracking device

Arthur stood speechless at a spot. He could not believe that Jenny was blaming him for Jesse's kidnap. She was even calling Janet his girlfriend.“She's not my girlfriend and will never be one. Jesse is the only woman I love.” Arthur spoke to the retreating figures of the ladies. However, no one replied to him.Once Jenny was out of sight, he took out his phone to make a few calls. He also contacted Axel to make the necessary arrangements for Benita's education. He had already made the promise to the girl and won't go back on it.After forcing himself to eat something, Arthur tried to plead with Jenny to eat. However, she was able to come out of the room after much persuasion.“Please, come and eat something.”“Have you heard from the police?” Jenny asked Arthur with a serious face, she was already looking sick from getting worried for her sister's safety.“Nothing yet.” Arthur replied with his eyes glued to hers. “Please, eat something first so you can have the energy to worry about
