The Rise of Arthur McCain Chapter 24
"Please, help me search for my son." Gregg seriously pleaded. The expression on his face was pitiable. Oscar could not help but feel bad for his boss as he stared deep into his eyes. All he could see was a depressed man who was full of regrets."But Sir, we've been searching for him for some time now. Still, no trace of the young man. And even if we find him, are you sure he'll be willing to come back home?"Gregg shook his head vigorously. There was no way he would accept that Arthur could not be found. He wanted to see him first. Even if he had to lie on the floor and ask for his forgiveness, then he would. Provided he comes back home. "No, you have to search more. He's got to be somewhere out there." Gregg probed further and Oscar only nodded. "Alright Boss. I'll do my best."The two men were still talking when they heard someone approaching the room. Before they could make out who the person was, Rosaline walked into the room with her eyes fixated at Oscar. Ignoring the presence

Arthur rolled down the glass window of the cab and found Jesse standing outside. At first, he had thought that it was the taxi driver who came back. He had earlier gone to buy some snacks for himself. "Ma'am. How were you able to find me here?" Arthur was curious. He kept wondering what would have led the lady to notice that it was him in the cab. He opened the door and came out. Standing opposite the lady whose arms were folded across her stomach, Arthur asked again. "How come you recognized me? It's already dark outside."Jesse could not help but smile at the young man before her. "I can't explain it myself. Let's just say that it was a coincidence. My eyes went to the cab when I drove past it. I had this feeling that the person on a call was familiar to me so I decided to find out for myself."Moreover, your cab was parked outside the place where I drive by everyday. I already told you that I always come to pick up my sister." Jesse paused and gave Arthur a questioning look."Is a

Searching for the right words with which he'd reply to her, Arthur stuttered. "Ugh… I… Not…"The expression on the lady's face was serious and Arthur was not liking the moment. It was a little tense. He had said something he wasn't supposed to say and Jesse must have misinterpreted it."I didn't mean…" Arthur was still speaking when she burst into uncontrolled laughter. Arthur could not help but fake a smile. Wow! The lady had given him quite a scare and now she was laughing."You should have seen the look on your face." She commented after she was done laughing at Arthur. Arthur thought that the scene was not funny. How could she feign such seriousness when she didn't mean it? Or was she just trying to cover up? Arthur was overthinking it."I actually didn't mean it the way you thought. It must have slipped my tongue." Arthur tried to explain but Jesse just smiled."Come on." She said and started towards her car. Nothing Arthur said at that moment made any sense. She didn't even pay

Jesse also paused as she watched Arthur in perplexity. "What happened? Why are you acting strange?"Swiftly, Arthur turned his back and started towards the exit with Jesse following behind. He stopped outside the restaurant and waited for Jesse to catch up with him. "What was that for?" She asked the guy, confusion evident on her face. She was no longer comprehending anything that was happening. First, he brought her to the place with the reason that he was hungry, Now he just ran out of the restaurant as if he was running away from something or somebody.Of course he was running away from Janet."I'm so sorry about that." Arthur apologized but it seemed that the apology didn't go well. What was he apologizing for anyway?"I'm still waiting for you to explain the reason for this strange behavior of yours."Arthur could not tell her that it was Janet that had made him leave in that manner. He didn't want to have any physical contact with her, not when he was in the company of someone e

"Arthur, You're not saying anything. What's the name of your street?""House 34, Roban street." That was the name that came to Arthur's mind. It was the house of one of his classmates who had once invited him. The guy had been close to Arthur. However, Arthur kept their relationship casual. He didn't want too much attachment with anyone. Arthur prayed in his heart that the place won't be an above standard residence else Jesse would raise brows and throw endless questions at him.He wasn't sure of the social status of his classmate who lived at the place."Ok, So you can give me the directions." Jesse said, causing Arthur to cast her a puzzled look. Jesse stole a glance at him and immediately focused on the road. "Don't tell me you don't know the way to your house.""Actually, I don't. We recently moved into the neighborhood so the place is still so new to me. Maybe we should check the map."Taking out his phone, Arthur realized that he couldn't surf the internet with the kind of phone

That's right. They might grow very close to each other and Jesse would want to pay Arthur a surprise visit. What would happen then? Arthur thought that he had gotten himself into a big sh*t. Well, there'd always be a way to get out of it. Arthur waved it aside and quickly dialed the cab driver's number. The man picked up as soon as the call came in. It was as if he had been expecting Arthur's call. "Sir, I thought you weren't going to call again.""Come and pick me up at Roban's street. I'm standing outside house number 34. Please be fast." Arthur ordered the man and ended the call immediately. It was already a few minutes to 9pm and Arthur thought his hanging around in a neighborhood that was not his looked rather suspicious. Ok, his classmate said he was staying at the place but how sure was he? Should he knock on the door and confirm? Nah, that'd be awkward. What if they were no longer staying at the place?Arthur thought it was stupid to visit someone by that time. Especially a f

He had thought he'd always do anything that money could do just to please Janet and get her not to leave his side. However, this request was out of it. There was no way he could grant such a request.With furrowed brows, Bryan stole a glance at her and saw her smiling. "You don't mean that, do you?" He asked her."Of course I don't mean it. A Rolls Royce is a very expensive car and I know that you can't pull that off." Janet replied with a grin plastered on her face. Slapping Bryan's lap, she said. "You needed to see the look on your face. Come on, I didn't mean it, it was just a stunt. However, you would have to get me a car. I can't be seen boarding cabs when I have a rich boyfriend."Bryan glanced at her without saying anything. He just kept mute and continued driving.Seeing that Bryan wasn't saying anything, Janet slapped his leg a
