Sasha glared at the lady as she slammed the bills on the table. She was determined not to back down, so she pulled Damson to a corner, whispering to him.

"I need $2000 dollars, right now."

Damson looked at her in disbelief, his eyes wide with shock. "What do you mean, Sasha? We're here to buy just a ticket, not 20 tickets! We didn't plan for this. You're going too far. Let's focus on why we came here."

"I know, but I can't let them win. They're trying to intimidate us. They think they're better than us just because they have more money? No way. I need $2000 to show them we do belong on the same level."

"We're not riffraffs, but by the time we leave this place without doing anything, we're accepting that everything that everything they said is true."

Damson shook his head. " Sasha, think about it, We're students. We don't have that kind of money and even if we did, it's not worth it just to prove a point. We don't even know them. Let's just leave."

Sasha was adamant. "Find a way,

    Damson left the bathroom and went straight to the office where the previous owner, Mr Matthews, was sitting. He barged in without knocking, which made Mr Matthews glare angrily at him. "Who are you and what do you think you're doing in my office?" Mr Matthews asked, angrily. "Have you no manners? Who sent you to my office? I already told my workers to let you all know I have no hand in the winning process. If you're here to beg me for help, I can't do anything. Get out of my office, you rude and mannerless fool." Damson chuckled, sitting down on a chair. "Quiet! Your voice is too loud, you're hurting my ears. I'm right in front of you, you don't have to yell." Mr Matthews was surprised. He saw that Damson was wearing the shirt that had a university logo on it, so he was just an ordinary student. "A university student is right here in my office, telling me to keep quiet? Are you out of your mind?" He grabbed Damson by his collar, fuming with anger. "You must be crazy. You think yo

    Damson was caught off guard and couldn't react fast enough. He watched as the person dissappear into the crowd, taking the money with him. He immediately stood up and ran after the person. "Stop, thief! Stop running!" He yelled as he chased the person who had taken the bag. "I'll call the police if you don't stop!" He threatened, bumping into people and breathing hard. But the person didn't stop, he kept running and dodging through the crowd and cars. Just as Damson was about to give up chasing after the thief, the person's hoodie fell off, revealing a face he didn't expect. It was Kate! He was shocked. She looked back, smiled, quickly covered her head and ran as fast as she could, with Damson chasing after her. Damson had been trying to find Kate for a while. The last time he saw her was on a CCTV footage, and now he finally had a chance to catch up with her. He pulled out his phone and called Luis, breathing heavily. "Luis, I need your help." Damson said. "I just saw Kate and

    Damson, who had been watching Madison's mother with growing irritation, quickly stepped forward and held her hand as she grabbed the scalpel. "This is a hospital." He said, angrily. "You're causing a scene and disturbing the other patients. Luke is also a patient, stop handling him like he's not. He's also injured. Can't you see the cast on his leg? You need to let go of him right now."He quickly pried the scalpel out of her hand, handing it to a nurse standing nearby, who quickly took it away. Everyone was shocked. They couldn't believe Damson stood up to Madison's mother after what she had said. "Does he have a death wish?" Linda whispered to Aria. "What is he thinking? He's so stupid." Aria nodded in agreement. "Madison's mother is going to crush him like a bug. What was he thinking, standing up to her like that? He's either very brave or very stupid. I'm not sure which one it is."Linda shook her head. "I think it's a little bit of both. He's in deep trouble today."The two g

    It had been a month since Damson last saw Maria. He had received many text and calls from her, but he ignored them all. He knew he had done something wrong, but he wasn't ready to reveal his true identity to her, and he was also avoiding her questions. Feeling guilty for ghosting her, he decided to check up on her. He initially wanted to call Luis to pick him up from school, but he changed his mind. Instead, he took a taxi to the apartment. When he arrived, he noticed a black van parked outside. Confused, he walked closer to check it out, that's when he saw Maria struggling with two men. They were trying to drag her into the van."I'm not going with you! Leave me alone! Stay away from me, I'm going to call the police if you don't let me go." Maria screamed, struggling to break free from the men's grip. "I promised to pay you back. It's not two months yet. You can't take me with you! Somebody help me, please! Help!" She screamed, fighting back tears."You can't do this to me!" She

    Maria woke up with a terrible headache. She sat up slowly, holding her head in her hands. She looked around, taking in her surroundings and found out she was back in the apartment, but she didn't remember how she got there. The last thing she remembered was almost getting hit by a car. She dragged herself out of bed and walked to the kitchen to grab a glass of water, trying to remember if she came back to the apartment on her own or someone brought her back but she was sure no one saw her leave the house. As she entered the kitchen, she was surprised to see Damson cooking at the stove. At first, she was surprised and happy to see him, but got angry immediately when she remembered what he had done to her. "What do you think you're doing here?" She asked, angrily, folding her arms. Damson turned to her, a smirk on his face. "Oh, you're finally awake. I was getting worried. You seem to forget that I also live here." He said, his tone playful.Maria let out a sarcastic laugh.

    Luis fixed Damsons tie, concern visible on his face. "Young master, are you sure you're ready to face the shareholders?"Damson nodded. "I'm ready, Luis. One way or the other, I have to face them. If I don't do it now, they might sell their shares and before that happens, I need to show them what I'm capable of." Damson rubbed his hands, nervous. He hadn't slept much the night before. The first reason was because of Maria. Last night didn't go as planned. She was angry with him and her reasons were valid. He wanted her to share everything about herself, but he was holding back from telling her the truth about himself. He was also worried about the meeting with the shareholders, he didn't know them and didn't know what to expect. Luis had sent him files about them, including their names and what he should expect from them. There were five of them: Ethan Thompson, Alexander Pierce, Julian Lee, Gabriel Reed and Lucas Brooke. Julian Lee and Lucas Brooke were businessmen who took thei

    "As for you two. Damson said, pointing at Julian and Lucas. I know all about your silly and foul games. I have the annual financial records with me here and from what I've investigated, the funds you've been receiving in your accounts haven't been matching with what's written down in the records. Do you want me to investigate further and see why there's no balance?" Damson laughed, a cold hard sound. "You want to continue your fraudulent activities, that's why you want to get rid of me? You're very wrong. I'm here to stay and I'll make sure to get rid of leeches like you all from my company. You dare look down on me? You're all crazy fools." The shareholders were shocked and scared, their faces pale. They hadn't expected an outburst from Damson. They thought he was someone they could push around and control, but Damson just proved them wrong. He stood his ground."I didn't agree to this meeting in the first place." Alexander said, sitting up, his voice shaking. "I really don't have

    Sasha knocked the passenger window, startling Damson. He quickly got out and opened the door for her, showing his chivalrous side. "Chivalry isn't dead." She said with a chuckle as she got in the car. Damson got back to the driver's seat and started the engine. "Where to?" He asked, looking at her. She typed the location of the beach into the GPS and he started driving."You look really beautiful." Damson said, smiling at her. Sasha blushed and replied. "Thank you." But after that, the atmosphere in the car became awkward and they both fell silent. "This is a nice car." Sasha said, breaking the silence. "I didn't know you had one." "Oh, I rented it." Damson replied, scratching his head. "I didn't want us to go through the stress of getting a taxi." Sasha nodded, impressed by his thoughtfulness. They listened to soft music for the rest of the drive until they arrived at the beach.Damson found a parking spot and they made their way into the beach. As they walked, a feminine voi

    “I worked all my life for your father,” Luis began, his voice filled with bitterness. “Tirelessly helped him build Stellarcorp from the ground up. And when the company became big, he still used me like a fool.”“I didn’t mind at first,” he continued. “I treated Stellarcorp like it was mine too. Gave it everything. But then, out of nowhere, he decides to look for his long-lost son, to give you the company.”Luis scoffed.“He didn’t even ask me what I thought. Didn’t care. Just ordered me to find you and hand it all over. To make it worse, he told me to watch over you while you ran the company. Can you imagine that? Me, the man who brought Stellarcorp to fame, reduced to your babysitter.”“The company should have been mine, not yours. Your father’s lucky he died when he did, helping you escape. It was supposed to be you six feet under, not him. But you were just lucky that day. My men did a sloppy job.”Suddenly, a voice rang out.“Enough of your talk, just kill this bastard already!”

    “Am I in a moving car? I’m definitely in one.” Damson thought to himself as he opened his eyes groggily. He tried to sit up and realized he was in the trunk of a car. He banged on it several times, trying to get it open, but it wouldn’t budge. He began to sweat, helpless and disoriented, forced to wait until someone decided to open it.“Who did this to me? What happened?”“Why can’t I remember being put in the trunk?” Is Maria okay? Was she also shoved into another car?”So many questions ran through Damson’s head. He was confused. His head felt heavy, too big to carry.He eventually laid back down and decided to wait until the car stopped. After about twenty minutes of pure torture, the car finally came to a halt. Damson let out a small sigh of relief. He heard muffled voices outside, and then suddenly, the trunk flung open.He blinked against the light and tried to sit up, but his body failed him. He couldn’t move. No matter how hard he tried, only his head responded. “What the he

    Damson couldn’t leave the Wilsons just like that after finding out what Mr. Wilson had done for him. The man saved his life, and the least Damson could do was help the family with the funeral preparations. He paid for all the expenses and also gave them a large sum of money to sustain them for a long time. He even advised Logan to invest wisely.He had wanted to stay longer, but Logan asked him not to. His mother and sister would only feel more pain with him around. His presence would be a constant reminder of what happened to their father, and they didn’t need that. Damson understood and didn’t push further so he left.At first, he decided to head to his apartment, but then he changed his mind and went to the dorm instead. He hadn’t been there in a while, and he wanted to see his friends, Luke and Fred. They had reached out to him several times, asking where he was and why he hadn’t been around. At the time, he couldn’t tell them he was married, so he just told them he had gone job

    Maria sat in the car, fiddling with her fingers, random thoughts flying through her mind as she stared out the window. Kate was seated beside her, and two other men were in the car with them.She didn’t fully understand what she was doing or what she had just agreed to but one thing was clear, she couldn’t die because of someone else.Damson would do the same, right? Maria wondered, now biting her nails.He’d choose survival too, even if it meant putting me in danger… right? Anyone would… right? She was disturbed.“But Damson betrayed me too. He treated me like a fool, lied to me, and deceived me. I thought that we were close, that our bond was real.”“Had he been acting all along?”“How is he even the president of StellarCorp? When did that happen?”“He was the poorest student in school. So how? It doesn’t make sense.” Maria’s thoughts raced, growing angrier by the second.“I could’ve gotten more opportunities. I could’ve had a good job in his company. I was close to him! But he de

    “What! No, no, please don’t kill me. Please don’t,” Maria cried, scared for her life. Today has been a rollercoaster of emotions. She was scared, disturbed, and deeply worried and she couldn’t help but be angry at Damson for dragging her into his mess.She was in this situation because of him.“Caleb and the boss want Damson dead, and now, because of him, I’m going to die too.” She thought to herself. “Where’s Kate?” the boss asked, ignoring Maria’s cries.“Since the last time she almost got caught by Damson, Kate had been lying low.” One of the men replied. “Tell her to come here right now. She has someone to get rid of.”“Is that really the next thing you’re supposed to do? I don’t care what you do with Maria, but can it wait till we finish off Damson? Why are you wasting time killing people you’re not supposed to!?” Caleb asked the boss, frustrated.“It’s your fault this is happening!” the boss snapped. “I told you nobody was supposed to know that Damson is the president of Stel

    Caleb ran his hand through his hair angrily. His body trembled, and all he wanted to do was find Damson and end his life. He wasn’t interested in whatever plan the boss had to offer. He just wanted to carry out his own.His life had taken a dip after his father lost his company and couldn’t get help from anyone. He had called all his father’s friends and visited different companies for assistance, but everyone gave him the same answer, they couldn’t help. He was devastated. His father became ill, and they had to sell their cars and properties just to afford treatment.Caleb was left with nothing. He was broke and had to struggle to get by every day. Because of that, he hardly showed up at school. Everyone had known him as one of the richest boys in the university, but now, everything was gone. He had nothing.To avoid questions and rumors, he stayed away from school and wandered around. He spent most of his days at clubs, stealing from people and drinking. It was during one of those

    Maria blinked hard, hoping she was seeing the wrong person but she wasn’t. She didn’t want to believe who stood in front of her.“Long time no see, Maria,” Caleb said, smiling sheepishly. “Did you miss me?”“Caleb… what…what is going on? Why are you here? Why am I here? Who are these people?” Maria stuttered, struggling to pull herself together. She didn’t want to believe Caleb had anything to do with her being kidnapped.“I asked you a question, but you’re throwing more at me in return.” Caleb said, his smile fading. “Courtesy demands you greet someone when you’re seeing them for the first time in a long while. Or have I become just ‘anyone’ to you now? Have you forgotten me so easily, huh? I made you a university student and suddenly you’ve grown proud?”“Cut it out, Caleb, and answer me!” Maria snapped, cutting him off. “What the hell am I doing here!? If this is one of your silly pranks, you better stop it now. I don’t have time for this! I’m not interested in whatever this is, s

    Maria paced back and forth, staring at her phone. She had spent the last few days thinking about the argument she had with Damson. She hadn’t tried to reach out to him since they last spoke, and he hadn’t reached out to her either. She was angry about that, but she had more to think about than just her anger.Damson and Viktor had acted really suspicious on the day she last spoke to Damson, and she was dying to know what was going on. “What emergency could Viktor have been talking about that made Damson react that way? What exactly went wrong?” she wondered to herself.She had had her suspicions about Damson before that day, but the way he acted even when he was injured made her realize something was definitely going on.She decided to find out for herself, so she packed her bags and left for Damson’s apartment. She wanted answers. She needed to know what was going on — and most importantly, the truth about his relationship with Luis, who represented Stellarcorp at the charity organi

    "Leo was the reason why my father had a stroke and had to be using a wheelchair. These past few months before you came have been brutal. Leo came with his friends to raid our house. It was just very sad that I was out clubbing on that very day. I should have been around to teach that bastard a very big lesson he would never forget." Logan said angrily. "I've been looking everywhere for Leo but I just can't find him." Damson replied. "If not that I have more pressing issues at hand, I'd do everything I can to fish him out from his hiding place." "I don't think you can find him just like that. Also, I think Leo also has something to do with the strange men my dad has been seeing. I don't know if it's true but that's what I just think.""That's the only reason why my dad would still be in contact with him after everything he had done. I can't even start mentioning everything that the bastard has done to our family and to be honest, I just want him dead!" "Can we just put Leo aside fo
