2024-05-13 23:45:25On his way back to the Slytherin's mansion, Oscar couldn't overlook the jewel shop he saw along the way. The name of the store caught his attention especially because they make the most beautiful and expensive jewelry in West Arcadia.
He recalled how many times Ellen had told him that she wanted to visit this place, to purchase one of the most expensive Neal Diamond rings. For Oscar back then, buying a ring worth over two hundred million dollars was the last thing he'd ever think of. But with his current net worth, Oscar knew that he could buy one hundred of it if he wanted, and would still remain rich. But what was the point? Ellen was no longer with him, except... "Turn the car," He ordered the driver and Leo couldn't help but ask, "Did you forget something?" "No, I mean back to the jewellery shop, I need to get something from there if you don't mind," He replied, and Leo couldn't help but marvel at how respectful Oscar was, despite how much he had acquired overnight. "As soon as Oscar realizes the kind of people he'll have to deal with, he will have no choice but to be ruthless." Leo thought to himself, he knew that the world of wealthy people isn't run by soft-minded individuals, but by ruthless men and women who wouldn't hesitate to seize every opportunity to take down another. "Of course sir," He replied as the car turned around, driving straight to the jewellery shop. On getting there, he walked into the jewellery shop, along with one of the bodyguards, he couldn't help but admire everything he saw inside there, but Oscar was after just one thing, the Neal diamond ring. "Excuse me?" He met one of the shop attendants, a young man in his early twenties, tall and elegant, but full of pride, just like most workers here. "Yes, can I help you?" He asked Oscar with a straight face, he knew most of the influential people in Axel City, but he hadn't seen this man anywhere. Sure he looked wealthy, but most wealthy people don't come in here on their own, they send their assistants, so he believed that Oscar was nothing more than the assistant to a wealthy man. "I'd like to see the Neal diamonds please," He said to him, and the man rolled back his eyes disdainfully. "Would you like to see it, or buy it? We don't let anyone just see it, it's not an artwork on display." The man replied, with a hint of disregard in his tone. Oscar noticed this behaviour and just assumed that he was one of those underpaid workers who chose to transfer their aggression to innocent customers. "I'd like to buy it," He replied. "For who?" The man asked, trying to know which of the many rich men, Oscar worked for. "Excuse me?" Oscar asked. "What business do you have with whom I'm buying it for?" "Tsk tsk," "Why are you acting like you are buying this for yourself? We all know you can't afford it, so tell me, who is your boss?" Oscar's jaws dropped in astonishment, "This is how you treat customers in this place?" He asked, and the young man rolled his eyes. "Hey!" Oscar's bodyguard grabbed the young man by the collar, "He wants to see the Neal diamonds, then show him the Neal diamond." "Don't touch me!" He yelled, and this drew the attention of a few shoppers and other salespeople in the store. "I said if he wants to see the Neal Diamonds... "Wait, what's going on here?" One of the security who came in as soon as he heard the noise asked, he saw Oscar's bodyguard holding onto the salesman and instructed him to let go, but he refused until Oscar said so. "It's one of these assistants, he claims that he wants to buy the Neal diamond for himself, but we all know that he cannot afford it. I think he should be arrested because he must have stolen enough money from his boss." The salesman exclaimed and Oscar could not believe his ears. "How does someone just assume that I would even steal from... how can a person think like this?" He wondered. And what surprised him the most was the fact that a lot of people agreed with him, these included some customers and even other sales people. "Excuse me, sir, who is your boss?" The security asked and tried to approach Oscar but his bodyguards blocked his path. "Step out of the way," the security commanded him, but instead of responding, Oscar's bodyguard tapped the ear pod and uttered, "There is a need for back up in here, I repeat there is a need for back up in here." Back at the receiving end, inside the car that was parked across the store, the other three bodyguards got the message and proceeded to get out of the car immediately. "Is everything okay?" Leo asked. "It appears that Mr Oscar is in trouble." One of the guards replied, before closing the door. "What the hell?"

Walking into the store, Loe could not believe the crowd he saw gathered at the front section of the store where a few watches were on display. "Oh dear God," He uttered and rushed towards the scene, worried that something has happened to his boss, Loe was already freaking out so much. As he got to the scene, Leo noticed that Oscar was still standing and he looked fine, but the problem at hand was the fact that numerous people were accusing him of theft. "I'm sorry what's going on?" He asked one of the customers to confirm what was going on so he'd know how to intervene. "Oh, this man came into the store to buy something with money he stole from his boss... "What the hell?" Leo exclaimed, "And Oscar being such a nice man, wouldn't even try to defend himself properly, sigh, at least this has given him a clear image of what this place is like." Leo thought to himself before taking out his phone. "Excuse me!" He finally made his way through the crowd to the centre of attent

Thursday came faster than expected, and this was the day Oscar had been waiting for. Leo ordered the Neal diamond ring which was brought to Oscar that morning, and he was delighted to have it. It will serve as an element of surprise for Ellen. Before going to the office, Oscar had reviewed the companies, and he knew how much influence he had over who and who would not become partners with the Slytherin Empire. "Are you ready, sir?" Leo asked as he came to check up on him and to confirm whether or not he was ready to go. "Oh, I am very ready to go," Oscar answered with a mischievous smirk. He picked up the ring box and took out the Neal diamond ring with a smile before placing it on his finger. "Let's go," He said and left the house immediately with Leo. They used a different car this time, but the same number of escorts as always. The drive took the same time, and when they got to the parking lot, he could not believe the number of cars parked outside. It felt as though the enti

"Are you seeing this?" Ellen said whilst staring at the name of the CEO on the office door. "Mr. Oscar Fred Slytherin," Micheal uttered and chuckled, "If only it were Oscar," He added, before knowing on the door. "Come in," a voice replied from the other side and they both walked in, unaware of who or what they were about to meet. "Good day," the man on the desk greeted them as they walked in and both Micheal and Ellen proceeded to shake hands with him, the relief on Ellen's face when she saw that it wasn't Oscar could not be overemphasised. "You must be Mr. Oscar Slytherin, it's such an honour to meet you, sir," Micheal said while he took his seat, but the man on the desk shook his head and said, "Unfortunately I'm not, my name is Leo Angus, the CEO is not here right now, and he had asked me to carry out this interview on his behalf," Leo replied and Micheal sighed in frustration. "Can we wait for him?" He asked, "I'd love to speak with the CEO by myself if you don't mind.

In a fit of rage, Micheal walked out of the elevator on the ground floor. Those who saw him avoided him because he looked just like he was about to start a war. As he got to the receptionist's desk, he dropped his documents on the table so loudly that it startled the receptionist herself. "Is there something I can help you with, sir?" She asked him, remaining as calm and composer as possible. "Yes, I want to see the managing director immediately," He said to her, his tone so harsh that he got people staring at them from all corners of the vicinity. "Micheal please bring your voice down, yelling won't solve our problems right now," Ellen said to him with a sigh, she was more than embarrassed by his current behaviour, even though she clearly understood the reason behind it. "I'm sorry, sir, but Mr. John Catar is very busy right now. He had a lot of appointments just like you. He has representatives for interviews. I suggest you come back tomorrow, I can book an appointment for yo
The Secret Heir Of Slytherin Empire 23. It was a mistake
Oscar was seated in his office, more than ten minutes after Micheal had gone to see John Cater. He wasn't doing so much in the office until a knock was heard on the door and he asked whoever it was to come in.Mr. John Catar, the managing director walked into his office looking displeased, he held the documents from the Caribbean enterprise in his hand while he said,"Pardon me sir, but is there a reason why you refused to see the representatives from this company?" He asked, and Oscar nodded his head and replied, "Yes, I have my reasons, is there a problem?" He inquired, hoping that the MD hadn't come to talk him into changing his mind."Not that there is a problem sir... but uhm, Mr William Hudson, the CEO himself was a very good friend to your father, they've been in contract together for years now, and although they aren't the largest of companies they are one of our investments" John tried to explain, but Oscar wasn't listening. "Like I said, Mr John, I have my reasons, don't
The Secret Heir Of Slytherin Empire 24. Guilty not guilty
Micheal couldn't wait to tell Ellen the good news, he knew that she would be relieved as much as he was, even if he had to wait a week, it didn't matter to him, as long as the contract was not terminated. Getting out of the elevator, Ellen couldn't wait to ask him how the meeting with John went. As soon as she saw him, she left her seat and walked up to him. "It was all a mistake," Micheal said, even before she asked, and Ellen heaved a sigh of relief. "I told you not to worry," she said, "I'm so glad it has been sorted out... "Not yet," Micheal interjected while walking toward one of the seats. "I'll have to come back in two days." While the couple chatted away, Oscar stepped out of the elevator, and the first thing he saw was the both of them. "Oh shit, I thought they'll be gone by now," He cursed, but unfortunately, he couldn't turn back now. His bodyguards were behind him, and he felt that it would be very awkward to just turn around and head back into the elevator. "Osc

"I was very disappointed sir when I saw her, I feel so bad that she had to leave you to be with someone else, now look at you, she would be left speechless when she learns that you are the CEO," Leo uttered after Oscar had narrated his ordeal with Ellen. "Let's not be too hasty," Oscar replied while looking out the window of the car, watching the street was a good source of entertainment for him. "I'm not even sure how long this will last," He added, as much as Oscar enjoyed what his life had become, he kept it in his mind that it could all end in the blink of an eye, if he wasn't the true Slytherin heir then it's over. "What do you mean by that sir? You are where you are supposed to be, of course it will last long, as long as Mrs Amy Slytherin is here, no one can stop you," Leo tried to encourage him, he was also aware of the reason why Amy was in such a haste to make Oscar CEO, and he supported her decision because Aiden can not be trusted. If not because the police had no evi

"What the hell do they want with me?" Oscar wondered while keeping his head low, the piece of glass pricked him, leaving his blood stains on each one he picked out of his skin. "Can this car go any faster!" The bodyguard yelled at the driver while trying to shoot down the men on the bike through the window. "Hold on!" The driver exclaimed before taking a sharp bend that caught everyone off guard. Both Leo and Oscar lost balance and leaned against the body of the car it turned. Before long, the next sound took them by surprise, and the sound of metal being dragged along the tar at high speed filled the air. The unpleasant sound that followed that loud bang could only mean one thing. "Shit, we've lost a tyre," the driver exclaimed. As the car stopped, it was only a miracle that the car did not flip from the impact of the explosion. "I guess we'll have to do this the hard way," the bodyguard quickly stepped out of the car with both guns in his hand. As the bike approached, he shot

As he walked into the Slytherin mansion, Nigel couldn't believe his eyes, it looked as if they lived on an entirely different planet because their home was just grand both inside and out. For a moment, he wished to become a member of the family, just so he could visit the mansion every day or even live there. But his admiration of the mansion was cut short when the voice of a young man called his attention from behind. "Please sit down," He said and Nigel nodded before taking his seat on the sofa, waiting for them to attend to him as soon as they could. Mark came to him in less than five minutes and he submitted the papers. Mark signed on to other blank spaces and spent a lot of time reviewing the information on the documents. It has a lot to do with Nigel's contributions to the company handed down directly from the managing director at the London branch, and it was meant to help Mark determine what kind of promotion Nigel was to be given. After accessing the information, which

Inside the elevator he took a deep breath and waited until he got to the sixth floor. He stepped out and walked his way down the last office and knocked gently on the door. “Come in,” Aston's voice responded from the inside, and without further ado, Nigel walked into the office and met the CEO of the Slytherin Empire staring at a picture on his phone. The expression on his farces was somewhat disturbing, like he had just seen a dead body or a gruesome sight from a crime scene. Looking at him again, anyone could think he was irritated, but Nigel would rather not ask him any questions since it had nothing to do with him, but at the same time he hoped he wasn't being too insensitive. “Good afternoon sir,” He greeted Aston and the CEO lifted his head from the phone and replied “Yes, sit down,” His gaze returned to the screen, and this time, Nigel couldn't hold back his curiosity. “Hope I didn't come in at the wrong time?” “Huh?” Aston raised a brow, clearly he was distracted, bu

They picked up Nigel not so far away a headed fod a garden far-off into the city. The drive was rather peaceful, no one said a word to each other, not even Oscar. The lively moments between mother and son ended and now the depressing moment carried on until they got to the reserved park. Once they got into the park, there were several suits and exclusive restaurants scattered across the land mass, and with the help of Tom, they got a reservation at the best sitting area. It was situated inside the hotel at the park, designed for the elites. As the walked in, drinks were already set on their table, with clean glasses for them to drink with. As they sat down, a waiter approached them to take their orders, and in this place, whatever food was ordered will be cooked and served fresh, and just to make it more exciting and luxurious, the customer were given the exclusive menu, consisting of the most exotic dishes from across the world. The menu was a large book, having pictures of

Oscar did not just take Amy out of the room but out of the mansion, she made her get into the car and for the first time in a long while, Oscar was going to drive into the street alone. But Tom having spotted them from afar, signalled other bodyguards and immediately followed them from behind, whilst maintaining a good distance. Neither Oscar nor his mother said a word while they were together, he knew the emotional tumult, he knew that her heart was broken, shattered to pieces. He knew that she wanted to strangle Aston to death and he didn't blame her for feeling that way. Aston was a dubious man, nothing about him was good maybe the fact that he founded the Slytherin Empire. The tales he's heard of this man from Stephen are not ones of he was willing to share just yet, but even though it was not part of their plans, Oscar felt that it was time to introduce his mother to Nigel. Stephen had introduced Nigel to him and had told him how far they had gone in their research befor

She paced back and forth in the room and both Oscar and Leo watched her without saying a word, she was in a very bad state, and if only Oscar would let her, No was willing to run out of the room to make trouble with her husband. For a woman in her mid-fifties, Amy was quite strong, she knew how to get what she wanted and would go to any length to get it, but with Oscar pleading with her to stay calm and keep the door locked, she has no choice but to inhaled and exhale repeatedly until she was a little bit calm.Suddenly a knock was heard on the door, looking through the peephole, Oscar sighed in frustration, it was none other than the man whose presence had ruined their whole day.He opened the door to let him in, and as if Amy knew he was the one, she threw a pillow at him, one after the other until Oscar came in between them and stopped the pillows from hitting Oscar. He also approached Amy and tried to stop her once again. "What a way to welcome me, Amy," Aston scoffed, staring a

“I see that we already know each other,” Aston smirked, his eyes staring into the eyes of the young man who was supposed to be his son. How quick they were to conclude, how swift they were to make him the CEO in his absence without even knowing whether or not they were related.The striking resemblance was too much to go unnoticed, but most people will argue that it's possible because people look alike in the world and this could just be a sheer coincidence.“Yes, so it seems,” Oscar nodded his head in agreement,“And from what I know, you went missing three months ago, it's good to see you back,” Oscar said and didn't let go of Amy, the lady fuming with anger and Oscar could feel it build up with each passing second. “Well yes, I have been away for a long time,” Aston uttered nonchalantly, and stole a glance at Amy, “And oh, before I forget,” He added and turned around to face Miles.“This is my son, Miles Slytherin,” He said, leaving everyone's jaws to drop to their feet.

Within three days, the drama had subsided, all the Slytherin Empire companies were back to resume operations, and as easy as it may seem it was truly hell for all of them, both CEO and those under him. When Oscar returned to the mansion, Amy had already hosted a party to welcome him, inviting a lot of people to the Slytherin mansion, both within and outside the Slytherin Empire The celebration was grand, and Oscar was delighted to have come back to such a gathering, and he appreciated all those who came to celebrate with him. As for William Hudsons, he had confirmed by himself that Micheal was alive after he noticed that the detectives knew the truth. He tried to conceal it but only went into more trouble with the authorities. He was arrested under several charges, and his company was suspended. Micheal's son was also arrested for conspiracy, and as if that was not enough, most of their assets were confiscated, including their homes and land across west Arcadia. The case ended
143. especially Oscar
“Why do you think so?” Oscar inquired, even believed that Micheal was dead, the evidence was so clear even though Micheal's pictures were not shown. “Think about it sir,” Leo replied, “Mr William Hudsons did not say a word about his son's death until two days after the supposed incident that caused him to lose his life, and while many people think he was grieving, I don't think so.” He came out two days later and claimed that the Slytherins had killed his son, and it had been four days now since the incident and Micheal is yet to be buried, what's causing the delay.” “He didn't see the need to publicize his son's funeral?” Oscar replied but in such a way that it seemed like he was also asking a question. “I thought of that, but Mr Williams is not known for keeping quiet, he announces everything very quickly. Take when he lost his mother for example, the funeral took place two days after, and there was a full life coverage broadcasted on the news, so what makes Micheal different?”
142. Micheal is not dead
Days turned to night and things were not going well with the Slytherin nor with the Caribbean enterprise, the company clash became a more brutal war, especially after the death of Micheal Hudson. Without any logical evidence, Williams concluded that the Slytherins had everything to do with the death of his son and no one could tell him otherwise. He went as far as suing the Slytherins for murder, but as powerful as the Slytherins were, proper investigations needed to be carried out before the arrest. And in this case, the Slytherin Empire had the upper hand and no action was taken. Oscar was already sick and tired of the travels. Within the past week, he has visited five top political officials, people he never thought he'd meet in his lifetime. He spent more money than he had ever spent all his life, trying to solve the problem at hand, leaving the Slytherin experts to deal with William Hudson, but the suspension was yet to be reconsidered and he never thought it was going to be
