Outside the gate. Tom called the attention of one of those men who had been around watching them, and a young man, in his early twenties walked up to them...His gaze upon Tom was suspicious, but this was no surprise considering that they were holding lots of guns. "Hey man, what's up?" Tom asked, intending to keep the dialogue simple and his tone a little less threatening. "I'm okay," The man replied to which Tom nodded and proceeded to ask his next question. "Do you have any idea who lives here?" He asked, and the man nodded. "Yes," He said, "Wade Sylvester, he is very popular here." "Oh, how come?" Tom inquired, the more information he acquired, the better. "He goes out, and brings back a lot of things for us here, food, clothes, and many other things he was more like our hero or so to say." The man explained the look on his face gave away how much Wade's absence must have affected them. "What happened to him?" Oscar finally asked the question that had been on his m
7 a.m Axel City Saturday It had been three days since they had gone to the ghetto in search of Wade, yet the young man was nowhere to be found, and he didn't report to work throughout the rest of the week. All police units that were contacted claimed not to have him in their custody, leaving Oscar concerned. However, that is not the only thing that has been giving him concerns lately, the doctor had told him that Amy wasn't showing signs of recovery. He went to see her every day and spent hours in the ward with his mother hoping and praying that she would survive. The search for Jordan Henstridge remains mysterious, as though they were looking for a person who did not exist, and Oscar was no longer settled with all this. Jade was reported to have died the following day due to severe lung and liver damage due to her continuous drug intake. And as for Raj and the other two who had been arrested, they remained in custody, with Raj at the verge of going to jail because even
Aiden watched as tons of cops tropped into the Slytherin mansion as if they had come out of thin air, along with them was the lawyer, who so far has not revealed herself to anyone outside Oscar and will not until the time is due. Those bodyguards who have come along with Aiden were immediately alerted, they abandoned their searches and clouded their master like a protective shield, each one raising their guns as a defense mechanism. One of them quickly grabbed onto Oscar, and pointed a gun directly at his head, while signaling the cops to stay back. Tom being agitated wanted to hurry up to his master, but the police chief tapped his hand, signaling him to stay put and not make matters worse. "A setup up huh?" Aiden asked, he lowered his head and chuckled mockingly. "Mr. Aiden Slytherin," the police chief tried to close the distance between them, "You are under arrest, on charges of attempted murder and financial embezzlement. You have the right to remain silent, or whatever
It felt like a military war zone down there, but without the sound of a single gunshot. There were mostly physical combats and furniture damage. The cops were doing all that they could to keep these men at bay, whilst trying not to break anything, but that was far from reality. These men used all that they could lay their hands on as weapons, especially since most of their guns had been seized or knocked out of their hands. Aiden attempted to hide from the chaos but sat underneath the staircase, unaware that he was the first person Tom noticed as soon as he got down the stairs. Looking behind him, Tom almost chuckled at the coward who had come along with an army to fight them. At first, he wanted to assist the cops since they were not so large but then realised that if he had their leader, then they would compose themselves so that his life would be spared. "Hey!" Tom waved at Aiden, startling the old man to a point where he almost fell to the ground. "I used to respect you so mu
Oscar was quite impatient to get back to the Slytherin Empire to declare that he had regained his position as the CEO, he couldn't wait to see the look on John Carter's face, and how shocked Micheal would be when he learned that Oscar was back. But thinking of Micheal once again, Oscar couldn't help but sigh in disappointment, the young man never seemed to learn his lesson, and he thought maybe he wasn't doing enough. Oscar felt the need to push this to the next level, but he'd have to think about it for a while, before putting it to the test. Once he got dressed and ready to work, staring at the full mirror in the hallway, an idea came to his mind, an awful one. He was shocked as to how he could come up with such a dubious plot and commended himself for a job well done. "Just to execute it," He mumbled with a chuckle, only for his celebration to be cut short by Leo's voice. "Are you ready sir?" He asked. "Yes, very well," Oscar nodded in agreement and followed Leo downst
Without warning, Oscar, accompanied by all these escorts, walked into the building, with everyone stepping out of the way as they had no idea what was going to happen. Seeing Leo along with Oscar, John already guessed that the young man had betrayed them, "That's why you don't trust loyal people," He thought to himself with a disgusted look. He never imagined in his head that the cops were here for him, rather he thought that Oscar had come with the cops to kick Aiden Slytherin out of position. But to his greatest surprise, two cops approached him, and the next thing he knew, there was a handcuff on his wrists, and the cop said their usual words, "You have the right to remain silent or whatever you say will be used against you in the court of law." "What is the meaning of this?" He asked, "What have I done, all this is nonsense, you have no right or evidence to arrest me, Oscar, what is the meaning of this?" He asked and Oscar let out a slight chuckle. "Your boss is at
News spread like widefire that Aiden Slytherin had been arrested, and being such a well-known figure, a lot of people set out to know why. It was headline news on several channels and became one of the most trending subjects on a few social media platforms. Journalists went as far as going to the station to further understand what had happened, and with the information that they had gathered, they were able to enlighten the masses on the reason behind the arrest. But these left the masses even more curious, as they all wanted to know who this new CEO was, they were curious to know how much power he truly passed and most especially they were eager to find out whether or not he was a true Slytherin heir. So many speculation and rumours spread across the Internet within twenty-four hours, as many people predicted that the long-lost Frederick had returned to take his place as the rightful heir to the empire. While the masses tried to figure out what they could, Oscar was also try
Ellen fumed with anger as she paced from one side of the room to another, despite the widespread of information, it only just got to them that the CEO whom they put all hopes in had just been arrested, leaving the company with yet another CEO. It didn't take so long for the deals to be terminated, something that was just a threat was finalized, and every partnership deal was cancelled. It appeared that Oscar did not waste any time doing what he wanted to do, but they did not know that. But that wasn't the only reason why Ellen was pacing all over the place. In addition to the email, the company had requested that she leave her current fiance Micheal to date the CEO if they ever want a chance to get out of their predicament. After reading that part of the email, Ellen almost threw her phone to the wall, while Micheal just sat there in silence. One moment he thought he had everything, he thought that Oscar had been put to shame, but it only took one night for everything to vanish.
