Let me go, and he will live; don't use your stupidity to make me end his life,” he warned, slitting his throat a little. Blood started dripping from the hostage's neck. James's eyes widened in horror, and he clenched his fist tight beside him. He looked around and noticed Lucas was not among the securities that came in; he served only James. He thought of saving the man and apprehending the criminal; he thought of fooling him by pretending to let him escape. He pretentiously looked terrified, and his eyes met with the man and he shouted, “Let's let him go!”“Sir, he is a criminal; we can still arrest him.”“No one should touch him, so you want him to commit a crim

Unfortunately, you chose death for them.” James threatened “Please spare my family; I will tell you who sent me, please!!!” tears began to drop from his eyes. James smiled and raised his chin, “Family is the weak point of most people, imagine you killed the man you held hostage,” He dropped his jaw and said in silence, “Who sent you? The man instantly spoke, “Dominic gave me a map of this company, helped me in, and asked me to destroy the CCTV cameras, which I did. Please forgive me.”James’s eyes were pale, and he clen

The manager began to press his phone and read out the answer from Google. “The president's salary is 50 million dollars with an allowance." Dominic smiled and said, “Good, it is not bad monthly, ask for other ways to make more money as a president apart from salary and allowances,” The secretary pressed his phone and said, “Sir, there is no other way except by diverting the public funds into your pocket; you can divert as much as 500 million dollars in a month.”His eyes widened when he heard he could tenfolds of his salary into his pocket. “That is ten times my main salary.”“Yes, sir,”“This is a rare opportunity, I could see why many people want to become the president, salary, allowances and public funds, let's milk from the national cake of Aston Villa.’ A smile spread through his face. “Okay, sir, that is a very good decision,” the manager encouraged him“Obtain the form ASAP, the company will suffer a small blow.

Amelia squinted her eyes while explaining James noticed Amelia's pale expression and said, “I have never seen you like this; it is not a crime to fall in love, but Jackson is a subordinate of Dominic, I will advise you to stop your feelings for him; he is not from a good family, and good things won't come out of it if you need a husband, tell me, I will find you one instantly, now that I'm becoming the president, it will be easier.

James walked to the living room and he met Amelia and Maureen waiting for him. A smile curled from the corner of his mouth when he saw them, he was stunned. Could it be that they didn't sleep because of him? “Good morning everyone,” He greeted“Good morning Mr. President,” they chorused. He blushed when he heard that. They couldn't wait for him to get elected before calling him the president. He heaved a sigh and adjusted his tie. Maureen walked closer to him and said, “Please be careful; I wish you the best.” her expression became pale instantly.

Dominic was silent for a while; he had no vision for Aston Villa. His motive was to divert the public funds into his pocket. He puffed a breath and faked a smile when his eyes met with James and cursed him inwardly. “I have a lot of vision for Aston Villa if you don't mind; I have done a lot of research days and nights with my PA Dave, to help this country, if you can allow him in, I have some with him.”The committee glanced at each other, and their eyes met and nodded. “We never mind; kindly allow Mr. Dominic Saint PA in.”Dominic kept glancing at James, James smirked as their eyes met. The door swung open, and Dominic Manager scurried in with a palm top clutched in his hand. He bowed when he entered. He went to Dominic and whispered to him, “Your clothes are neater than mine, I didn't take note, that is not important now, I know you are watching us; have you provided an answer to the question they asked me?”“Yes, I have searched for it, should I read it?”Dominic worried an

How do I get this opened? And the owner is dead,’ he thought in frustration. The death of the man was still lingering in his mind. Just when he was about to give up, he remembered that Amelia could have a solution. He took his phone and called her to meet him in his library. Amelia had not been to many places in the house; she didn't know how to locate the library in the house, so she called one of the maids to take her to the library. James heard a knock on the door and said, “Come in, Amelia.”“You called me,” Amelia said “Yes, the flash has been passworded, and the man is dead; there is no way I can open it.”“I can open it,” she assured himJames couldn't wait, he wanted to know the content of the flash and pleaded, “Please, come and open it now.
