The Rise of a Billionaire CHAPTER 65
Victor has seen and gotten all the information he needs. He sighed when he realized he had to travel to a different city for this mission. The young man he saw the other day looked very gullible and soft. It would be much easier to convince him than an old man. He has never had so much in the past few weeks, up until he got an email inviting him to the Pedro Mega Tower. Victor twirled and whistled with his towel wrapped around his waist. His flight was booked at 8 a.m., and at 7 a.m. he was dressing up to leave. His house was a mess too, and now that he would be six tiles richer, he had to hire a maid as soon as possible. He didn't believe that Mr. Jim was so easy to reach until last night. “Whoa! I'm going to be a billionaire soon. I'm going to be a billionaire.” He sang and did a horrific version of Michael Jackson's moonwalk dance in his room. While whistling “beat it, just beat it” and snapping his fingers. He soon got fully dressed, but he thought he wasn't complete with his

Victor smiled, losing his confidence a bit when he heard the question. Jim was seated calmly with his hands clasped together on the desk.“Well, it's not a very huge thing.”.“Okay, I am listening,” Jim replied, scrolling through his system. "Well, it's about the solar panels the Coleman group is making." Victor began in a slightly shaking voice. Jim put down his pen and focused on Victor.“What about it?”.“Well, there is no problem at all; it's just that I feel you are making a big mistake by investing in that business '. Victor cleared his throat.“I have watched Peter over the months, and all I see are great results, so why do you say otherwise?” Jim asked, flashing him a suspicious look. Jim had the feeling that Victor's visit to his offense would only be a trip to sabotage his brother because, all the while he sat with Peter a few days ago, he never mentioned his cousin coming to pay him a visit in Houston.“Peter had never been straight when dealing with people. My uncle's co

Peter and Tyler were still working on a few documents in the office when Mia's call came through. Peter looked at it at first and ignored it, but then, on second thought, he didn't know what Mia had to say, so he grudgingly picked up the phone.“What is Mia? Why are you after my life?” He said that and dropped the phone.I'm sorry for the meddling boss, but I think you should listen to her. Tyler advised.Peter frowned, picked it up, and stared at the number again. It wasn't saved to his phone, but it was in his memory. "Why is she calling me?" He sighed deeply.She's been calling for days nonstop, and I am beginning to get irritated. He paused and stared at it for a while."Your ex-wife? Same one that dumped your ass for some rich man?". Tyler asked."Same woman. That's her!" Peter answered casually."Maybe you should just answer the call and then hear her out; it won't hurt.”."There's no way I'm getting back with Mia. I am already in love with someone else. He spoke with all the a
The Rise of a Billionaire CHAPTER 68
Two days after Peter had met with Mia, he decided to be friends with her; at least she was once his wife. The day was slow at work, so he decided to check up on all the proposals he had gotten for the day. Tyler had helped him make a selection of the five best proposals to pick before his phone began to ring.“My phone…” Peter replied, rummaging for his phone, where he kept it. He was so busy that he didn't notice he had locked the phone in the last drawer on the table. “Why is Mia calling me again? I thought I made it clear the last time,” he murmured. Tyler winked at him and began to blush.“Please continue with your work,” Peter said with a finger pointed out. He swiped the phone and placed it on his ear.“Yes, Mia. What do you want? I thought I made it clear to you the other day.”."Peter, please come to Hannah's Ville; I don't know what I ate. I am dying." The voice boomed into the phone. Peter ended the call and immediately became unstable. “Is everything alright, sir?” Tyler
The Rise of a Billionaire CHAPTER 69
Peter had just gotten home. He had planned to sort things out by himself and not get involved with the police so it wouldn't get to the public hearing, but just when he got into his house, he found Kayla standing at the center of his sitting room.“What in heaven's name is happening, Peter? What is this rubbish I see online?” Peter asked casually. "Kayla, let me explain," Peter said, but as he wanted to speak, Kayla jumped in and blamed the whole incident on herself. “I caused it, Peter, to her. He didn't want to go there, but Mia told me that she was at the point of death, so I had to go. See, I have my evidence against them.” Peter turned and told her. "Yes, I have my evidence. There's a small chip on my smartwatch. No one knows about it. I kept it there for a reason. I noticed something was wrong, and when I realized Mia was not a clean person, I decided to add that chip to record everything, and I am so happy I did. Peter pulled the chip from his wristwatch and inserted the dis

Kayla looked at him and smiled. She had loved Peter From the beginning, but now she feels really bad for hitting Peter without first finding out if all that happened was true, it was already too late to regret it, though the guilt was going to linger for a while. Shenleaned closer and laid on his legs. When Kayla left his house that evening Peter decided to go look out for his enemy with the details he got from Tiger. There was no need to go with his expensive car on such a mission so he walked a long distance, angry and fuming, until it was dark enough for him to trace Henry to his little guest house. Peter trailed him when they had the issue at school, but he decided to refrain from his plan when he met his grandfather. He flagged down a taxi and went straight for the Blue Club apartments. He took his time to learn about the environment. He knows Henry's schedule even more than he does for himself. He had always wanted revenge on him, and this time he was not going to look bac

Mia couldn't grasp the message Peter had just given her. After he left, she hurriedly got a change of clothes and headed to Henry's guest house. When she got outside her apartment, she flagged a taxi and hopped in. Her entire body vibrated vehemently as she approached the venue. She hoped it was just some sort of Photoshop, but if it was real, then she was in really big trouble. Henry's mother is a well-known entrepreneur, and she had all the money too and he would fish her out as one of the culprits for his son's misfortune. She panicked and bit her lower lip in regret. But it's too late for all that show of remorse. For the years she spent with Peter, she knows he doesn't go back on his words. And if he had shown her what he had done, then that was it. The moment the taxi got into a traffic jam a few blocks from the Brothel she tapped the driver from behind. The man stopped sharply. She threw the cash at him, ran out, and jogged off the remaining distance. It was 7.30 p.m. as

She managed to put the call through and leave it. “His mother is a well-respected businesswoman in town, and he will be here soon,” she informed the doctor with pride. The specialist didn't express a lot to her. He turned out well for him and requested that the medical caretakers get things arranged for the medical procedure.Mia sat in the gathering for some time and, afterward, chose to extend her legs a little. A tight issue in her legs, she moaned, gradually easing the hurt as she could scarcely feel her feet on the ground. She left the reception, and afterward, similarly, as she was going to go off in an unexpected direction towards the backyard, she heard the booming alarms coming from the oncoming vehicles. Her heart siphoned boisterously at her. She stopped and turned, her eyes widening.She saw the patrol coming in from the front gate. She ran back inside as fast as possible, smiled at the nurse at the front station, and comforted herself. Henry's mom is here," she informe

Reynolds has his eyes on the records. He has checked all the files he printed out, but there was simply no name that matched Red's name. He wondered while sitting in his office alone. He has done all he could to make sure he wasn’t making any silly mistakes with the names.He paused, looked at the files for a while, and smiled. He knows that he will find what he is looking for. Just as he was about to scroll again, the door to the office creaked open. Cora was shocked to see him sitting behind his desk with his eyes wide open and focused on the door.“Hey Detective Reynolds! What are you doing here at this time? It’s the weekend, and you should be home." She said this to him as she walked into the room.“Well, I know it’s the weekend, but I have got so much work today before next week. Remember, the case with the Colemans is a very crucial one, and that is why I put you in my eyes to see the places I can’t see. “I see!” Cora exclaimed as she took her seat on the desk.“What’s your fi

Victor said this on his couch in his living room, wiping off the blood from his nose. The hospital seems to know him for always getting into fights, so he was not going to waste his time answering any questions or even driving down. The blood from his nose has increased incredibly, so he picked up his phone and called his personal doctor to come over. In less than thirty minutes, the doctor had pulled up outside the house.“You sounded really urgent over the phone." Dr. Kylian said as he hurried into the house.“I'm bleeding, doctor. I want to call if it isn't urgent." Victor answered. “I see,” the doctor replied, placing his first-aid box on the table.“You got into a fight again. Typical of you”. He teased and laughed.“The bastard always has a way of showing up here to fight me, and I am not going to let him beat me up all the time.”.‘Don't you think it's time you let him have his peace? You have done more harm than good around that man." Dr. Kylian said.‘Stay out of my family

“Talk to me, Victor." She pressured him to speak, and then he finally spoke by asking her the question that had been bothering his heart for almost two hours.“Do you love Victor?” “What? How dare you ask me if I love that goat? Peter, I am wearing your engagement ring, and I am carrying your child. How. Can you degrade me to that lebel? Is that how you see me? Is this what you think of me? Kayla was broken by his question. She looked at him and let tears well up in her eyes.“I saw the pictures of the two of you standing at a close range like lovers,” Peter lied.“A picture? Show it to me and tell me about the idiot who took the picture. This is a setup, and you want to believe it after all we have been through together?”. She asked in disappointment.“So are you going to tell me what happened today after the ice cream shop?”.“Ice cream shop? Wait a minute. Are you stalking me?”“Someone saw you, Kayla, so this is what you do behind my back?”. Really.Okay, Peter, now you are going

Peter sat in his office thinking about what he would do, and just then his alarm reminder for the meeting ahead came beeping. He turned his eyes to the phone and saw the notification. He grabbed his phone and got up. Just as he was about to leave the office for the conference room, Tyler came in to carry the laptop. Peter was already disheartened by the pictures and interpretations. He didn’t say much. He didn’t know what to do, but he was sure he would do something to protect his woman from Victor..He went to the meeting, and when everything was finalized, he got up from the chair, shook the men, and went back to his office."Boss, is everything alright?” Tyler asked as he had noticed his boss’s change of demeanor before the meeting commenced.“Sir, you look bothered. Is there a problem? Is everything fine at home, boss?” Tyler asked as she raced behind his boss, who had increased his walking pace. Tyler could sense that Peter was angry, and so he tried his best to sort out whateve

Victor walked away in shame while Kayla and Nurse Betty drove off. The Camry waited for a while after Victor’s car moved before driving off. “Hello Rey. We got your man trying to bully a lady but I think someone fought him off already”. Cora spoke the moment Reynolds came on the phone.“Oh! Great. You got some pictures?”“Sure. What I am doing as a detective if not providing pictorial evidence?“Great job Cora, you can drop the photos on my desk. I shall check them as soon I get to the office.“Alright boss’. Cora answered and drove off with her teammate.In about two hours Reynolds reported straight to Peter’s office. The heavy knock on the door made Peter raise his eyes from the computer he had been focused on for the past three hours.“Detective Rey, it’s so good to see you again, it’s been like a week already is it?’ Peter spoke with happiness in his tone.“Mr. Coleman is good to see you again” Detective Reynolds spoke. The two men shook hands and then the Detective sat down.“Wh

CHAPTER 147
Kayla has been living her sweet life in her apartment by herself. And since Peter isn’t in total support of it, he tells nurse Betty to go live with her to monitor her resting and eating habits so it doesn’t affect the baby as the doctor had said. Kayla knows that if she agrees to Peter's options, she will be a wife in less than twenty-four hours, and that’s exactly what she doesn’t want. After all, she could still have her baby and live a peaceful life without Peter in it, but that’s not what she wants for her baby; she just wants a father and a friend whom he or she could play with.She enjoyed her childhood with her parents, especially her father, Ethan, who gave her almost everything she ever wanted in life. Kayla knows that if her father had more to offer her, he would go out of his way to get it. She lay on the bed and checked her time. Since her boss had decided to give her a day off work, she wasn’t going to misuse the opportunity. Today was also her antenatal day, and the ma

“I will be leaving in a few days,” Reynolds said to Pablo, who was busy picking pebbles and throwing them into the water.“In a few days? That’s quick?” Pablo responded sharply. He had only been in Reynolds Company for a few days, and he was beginning to blend in with his vibes so much.“And when do you plan to return?” Pablo asked like a woman whose husband was going on a war trip.“I do not know. But I am sure I will visit this part of town sometime soon.” There was a little silence between them for a while before Reynolds spoke again. “I wonder why he brought the factory this far; his father knows better. What could he possibly do after inheriting this space from his father?" They both chuckled at Reynolds' thought.“I hope you find what you seek, detective.”“You are the only one who knows about my mission here, and I know that we have had a good deal. Keep to your side of the bargain, and I shall keep to every word I said to you the previous night and now. He checked the smartwa

Reynolds got to his shabby apartment and spent the night. Now that Pablo had seen his real face, it was going to be a little bit difficult to be free around him with that mask on, but he had to do it after all. He took off the mask and lay on his bed while his heart raced through his home, wondering if his items were safe in the house.”I guess I have to call Richards to go help me check what’s going on with the house, or if someone has boggled it. He has his most valuable things there. He took a deep breath, rummaged his phone on the side of the bed, and called Richard's number. Richard answered the call with a cracked voice.“You must have been sleeping. I am so sorry for waking you up.”“No, it's fine,” the voice said at the end of the call.“Well, I want you to help check on my home to see if everything is still intact. I bet you still have my spare keys with you." He asked“Yes sir. I still do." Richard answered as best he could. After he finished with the call, he put the phone

CHAPTER 144
After a quick shower, Reynolds rushed off to the playground, where the others had been waiting for him to come and play the game. The moment he showed up, the crowd began to cheer for the victory of the previous day."Oh, my good friend is here, and today I shall teach him the ways of the old when it comes to chess.”“Be mindful of what you wish for, my dear friend," Reynolds spoke, his fake white beards dangling from side to side. They played the game for very long hours as no one of them was willing to quit for the other, and then at the last minute, Reynolds won again.This time, Pablo had put his one hundred dollars into a bet. Reynolds laughed hard and patted him on the shoulder. Pablo shook his hand off with all his strength and then fell back into heavy laughter."Man, you are a monster. Now I can believe that you are a lord when it comes to the game of chess. I will hand over the crown to you for as long as you are here." He told Reynolds, who was busy taking his drink. Reynol
