The Rise of Arthur McCain Chapter 12
Arthur's heart skipped as the man brought out his phone. His thoughts reverted to the incident at the hotel. Has his identity been revealed?Hastily, Arthur snatched the phone from Nick's hands causing the man to cast him a confusing look. Is he ok?Paying no heed to Nick, Arthur watched a video of two men running after a young man and pleading that he gave them another chance. The men who were pleading seemed to have been sacked and was asking a poorly dressed man to forgive them.Arthur recognized the men. They were Frank and Harry while it was him hurrying away with a newspaper concealing his face. It was a newspaper that he took at the reception area where he sat before he was approached by Frank and Harry. He was happy to be in possession of the paper as it helped shield his face from those cameras.Tilting the phone so Nick could see the video again, Arthur asked. "Ummm… Why do you think I should have a look? I don't really understand what was going on there."Arthur feigned ign

Arthur was stunned at the response of the taxi driver. Really? How could he just ditch the man when he needed his services? To think that the man had become part of his undercover mission. Letting out a chuckle, he replied. "I'm waiting for you at the mall. Remember our agreement. No one must know about this. If you keep your end of the deal and not run your mouth, you'd be duly compensated.""Right Sir. I got your point clearly and can assure you that your secret is very safe with me.""Good."Arthur ended the call and made towards the exit door. His shift normally ends at 3pm and another security guard takes his place. Arthur was very ok with the morning shift. It meant that he'll have the rest of the day to do his other businesses. He has to keep an eye at the hotel and make sure Morris does a good job.The guy had been good to him for the two years they had worked together. It was why he gave him that huge responsibility. However, he needed to be sure that Morris was capable and t

Swiftly, Arthur took out his phone and made a call across to the hotel's CEO, Mr Mike. It was Axel who gave the man Arthur's real identity. The man had come in the previous night and came to work that day. However, he never parades himself around the hotel. That was the job of the manager. To supervise the activities of all the staff members.That was a huge responsibility. The CEO was mostly in his office watching what was going on in the place through the CCTV camera. As soon as he got the call from Arthur, he hastily summoned the staff members who converged at the conference hall. However, not all the staff had to leave their duty post since they had guests to attend to. A few stayed behind and would be learning about what transpired from those who had attended the emergency meeting.While Arthur made his way to the CEO's office to watch the show from there. The man stood before the staff members and addressed them."Good evening everyone. I'm sorry to have disrupted you from your
The Rise of Arthur McCain Chapter 15
That was the moment Arthur wanted to see. It was interesting to see the downtrodden person lifted above everyone else. That was his case by that time two days ago, when he just learned about his mother's family. He was at his lowest and all of a sudden, he was made the highest.That feeling was out of the world. He could imagine how it was for Morris.He saw Mike beckon on him to come address the other staff who were still stunned where they stood. His job was done so he left the CEO's office and started towards the manager's office where he waited for the new manager.Not long after, the door was flung open and Morris walked into it. Upon seeing Arthur seated at the manager's swivel chair, Morris fell on his feet and thanked Arthur."Thank you so much Sir for this great opportunity you have given to me. I promise to put in my best. I know it's all new to me. However, I'll never let you down."Arthur didn't say a word. He just stood up from the chair and helped Morris up. "I believe I

Gregg yelled at the top of his voice and got the partying fellas on their heels. With the way the man screamed at them, they feared for their life. He sounded like a growling wild beast and they all left the place in a haste. Including Bryan and Janet.With the way the man flared up, the staff of the house ran out and found Gregg on the floor. He was crying and all they felt for him was pity. Imagine what such a great man had been reduced to because he married a bad wife who tore the house apart with her irresponsible son. Gregg was crying like a baby when his butler, Oscar pulled him up with the help of the other staff. They helped him to his room and let him lie on the bed while Oscar called the doctor.After some time, the doctor came around and examined Gregg"So doctor, what is the problem with my boss? He sat on the floor and was crying like a child after yelling at his son who was having a party in the sitting room. I've never seen him so helpless like this before." Oscar inqui

After leaving the house in the manner that they did, Bryan and Janet went back to the mall in search of Arthur. Even though they had an intention of going there just to humiliate Arthur more, Janet would never pass up a chance to do more shopping. She believed that the money would always be available. Bryan, on the other hand, was so stupid to keep throwing more money on his brainless girlfriend who knows nothing about saving.As they got to the spot where they saw Arthur the previous day, they scanned around and couldn't find him. Maybe they believe that he'd always be at that spot waiting for them to come back and throw more demeaning words at him. Unfortunately for them, Arthur was done with his shift for the day.Frustrated, they decided to leave but fortunately met with Nick.Janet hastily recognized Nick but he didn't remember their faces because he came in contact with a lot of people on a daily basis."Hey mister." Janet called out to Nick as they approached him. With furrowed

"Oh! I'm so sorry ma'am." Arthur apologized to the lady who's hand bag fell on the floor. Tilting himself, he picked up the bag and was passing it to the lady when their eyes met."It's you." The lady who Arthur recognized as the manager of Royal mall said to Arthur. "What are you doing here?"Arthur gave her no response. Instead, he lifted the bag in his hands for Jesse to see."Uhmmm… You came to get a phone." Jesse commented and Arthur nodded his head."Yes ma'am."Confused, Jesse furrowed her brows as she thought. Why would Arthur choose to buy a new phone at another mall when they had a department that deals on phones. Arthur could tell what she was thinking but wanted for her to ask the question. Even though he didn't have a good excuse for a response, he still waited for her question."You chose to get a new phone here when Royal mall also sells phones. Why?"Arthur only smiled and stole glances at the lady without saying anything. "Nevermind. Maybe you have your reason. Since
The Rise of Arthur McCain Chapter 19
Stunned, the man received the phone with so much joy in his heart. "Thank you so much Sir. You have no idea how much this means to me.""It's fine. Enough of the 'Thank you'. Just take me home, I've had enough adventure for today.""Alright Sir." The driver nodded his head and started the car.As soon as he pulled over at Arthur's Villa, he thanked him again. "Thank you for the gift Sir, I'm most grateful for everything you have done for me."Arthur didn't not respond to the man, he just arched his brows and started towards his house. "See you tomorrow.""See you tomorrow." The man zoomed off and in so much excitement.***"Don't worry honey, I'd make sure to get that man fired from that mall. How dare he walk away when you were still talking to him? And that your so called ex boyfriend, I'll also get him fired for your sake." Bryan tried to calm Janet down. She was in a very bad mood since Nick walked out on her without giving her the response that she demanded from him.She took one

“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

“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
