"You're really what they said you are. I had been hearing much news about you from the lecturers and professors, and today you proved what they had been testifying was all true; you deserve an accolade for this action." Mr. Bruce, the Chancellor, commended Rex for his generosity.

However, he decided to wave off the thought of how Rex was able to acquire his wealth.

"Even if he acquires it in the wrong way, it is none of my business; after all, he uses it for something good, unlike others that flaunt it after involving themselves in many city acts," Mr. Bruce muttered.

"Thank you, sir; I'm more delighted," Rex responded with a cheerful smile.

He stood up to leave when the man drew him back with his remark: "One more thing, please. Tomorrow, make sure you meet me here exactly at the time you visited me earlier; we will discuss further concerning this with other staff members."

Rex sighed as he realized the next day was the day he should be having his business deal with Mr. Darius. He th

    Ava froze as she realized what she had just done. She did not even know how everything just happened; she had never thought of shooting anyone, and how she pulled the trigger was what she found difficult to understand because she had never handled a gun before. She was such a fragile person who hardly kills mosquitoes compared to killing someone. This made her realize what struggling for survival could lead someone to do.She wanted to panic, but after remembering one of the adversaries was still with them, she remained robust and walked over to Rex."What do we do next?" She whispered. "Let's get him eliminated too, because he will surely reveal you shot the lady here," Rex suggested."Who are you? Who sent you?" Rex reacted to the man kneeling; he walked over to him and unmasked him."What! So it's you? Did you come to kill me? For what reason, what did I do to you?" Ava exclaimed as she noticed the man was her colleague at her former company. She rushed over to the lifeless body o

    "What do you have in there?" the officer asked, approaching them.Ava, hurry up; don't listen to him; don't even do as if you heard him; let's throw this before he approaches us; it won't be funny if we are caught, ready? 1, 2, throw! " Rex summoned her, and they immediately used all their strength to dump the corpse, pretending as if they did not hear him asking.After they had tossed out the deceased corpse, Rex's heart stopped racing. At least, even if they get punished for not responding to the officer, it would be nothing compared to what they would face if the man realized what was in the huge nylon that they dumped."Why did you insist on dumping that? Did you not hear me calling? You heard it and proceeded to your wills, right?" The man reverberated."Well, even if you bark from now till morning, the deed has been done and you can't revise it; thankfully, the depth of this erosion is above going in to bring out an already dumped item," Rex mumbled, feeling satisfied."We're so

    "And where is he? We're the only two people in this office, of course," Mr. Darius responded as he became confused about what Rex said.Rex let out a grin, drew his chair closer to the table, and made a remark that sent the man aback."I'm the buyer, Mr. Darius; you're surprised, aren't you? Well, I'm the one who intended to buy it right when you disclosed to me that it was on sale.""Are you kidding? Rex, we're not here for a prank; let's go straight to the reason why we are here. If the buyer had failed, just let me know it's nothing compared to so many deals I've lost in the past," the man stated."And I'm damn serious about it, man. First and foremost, I'm sorry for not letting you know about it; I was somehow afraid it would not work if I had let you know earlier about it, so can I have the papers where I will sign?" He politely asked."Are you for real? Well, how could you afford to buy this company? Well, that's not a relevant question anyway, as I don't know your net worth." M

    It was finally the day the school Chancellor and Rex acquiesced to having the meeting, which would require the presence of the school staff. Rex did not make it to wake up early as he intended to prepare for school because he was devastated by the night's stress. He checked his phone and realized it was still a few minutes before his lecture started. He dashed out of the room to his car garage without even taking a proper look at himself in the mirror, as he does after dressing to see how he looks. Rashly, he drove to school without even dressing as he intended, as he would be having a meeting with the school's top lecturers.Luckily, he made it to school before the lecture started, though the lecturer was already inside the lecture room about to start lecturing. Fortunately, the lecturer was not among the strict and mean lecturers who have strict policies about not attending his class after he entered.Nonetheless, what he noticed as he entered the lecture hall put him in confusion;

    "Take it easy, young man; may I know who you are?" The doctor inquired; he was trying to make sure Rex was indeed a friend of Andrea, as he stated.Rex felt irritated at the moment; he was trying to catch sight of his friend while he was still alive, as the disease he was suffering was very difficult to overcome, yet the doctor was obstructing his way."Sir, can you just lead me in? I'm his friend!" He yelled, but his effort seemed fruitless."Sorry, I can't let you in if you don't explain yourself; it's against our policy here," the doctor stated.At this moment, Rex realized his aggressiveness would not yield any profit; he then brought out his phone to prove himself right."This is my evidence; I hope you're satisfied now," he stated as he was showing the doctor the amazing pictures he took with Andrea.At that moment, the doctor was already convinced; he led Rex into the hospital ward where Andrea was admitted and left them to their solitude.As soon as Rex entered the room, the si

    "I'm sorry, here it is," He apologized, giving Rex the account number.Rex dialed the number on his phone and entered his PIN. Within a few seconds, the doctor's phone pinged, signaling there was a message that had just arrived. With amazement, he broadened his face and unlocked the phone to know if Rex really transferred half of the money he expected him to send."What! What am I seeing, or is it nine hundred and ninety dollars that I'm mistaken for nine hundred and ninety thousand dollars?" He exclaimed and reread the message to verify if it was really what he read. "But it's Nine hundred and sixty thousand dollars I mentioned," he added with curiosity."Credit alert: Nine hundred and ninety thousand dollars.From: Rex HumphreyTo: Crown Hospital London" "Wonderful! You even sent more than what I requested? This teaches me not to underrate anyone again despite their status," he exclaimed after substantiating it was really what he read."I did not come here to joke; when is the trans

    "I hope everything is alright." He sighed and read the message.Dear honorable CEO, We are writing to inform you about the company's slow development over these few days due to poor management, which resulted from the vacancy of a manager. Since the manager was fired, no one had been able to get access to the current transactions made within his present, so we could not proceed with signing some checks or purchasing goods. Everything is directly turning to me, the assistant manager, because I'm the one expected to do better. This text is to tell you the value it'll create for the company if a new manager is hired as soon as possible. Thanks, kind regards, Joe Magnus]He sighed and dropped the phone. How is he going to handle this issue because he cannot afford to make that mistake ––losing the BOD Company, the overall company that made his grandfather what he became?"Just now I haven't finished thinking about it, and they've sent me a message, Ava, you need to start work," he muttere

    He was now heading to the company, which was where he intended to go, when a thought of Andrea ran through his mind, and he drove to the hospital.While he was driving to the firm, he was filled with satisfaction – at least his friend is now okay! Few more minutes for Rex to arrive at his destination, the car alarm started beeping. With a confused look, he wondered what could be the cause of that.This happened to him because he was not familiar with the Rolls Royce; he had never been in such a car. The only car he was very familiar with — the car he had mastered everything about it was the mini delivery van, which was the car he used those days when he was an errand boy. He drives cars because he runs errands for different people, both his fellow students and even the school he was studying at."What the hell is the meaning of this, for goodness sake? And Jackson wasn't with me here, because he would certainly know the cause of this sound. After all, he had been driving different sor

    At Range Global JD Hotel Street, the road was a busy one as different cars were trooping in and out of the hotel. Just then, a black Mercedes-Benz pulled up in the street. Though the hotel street has been busy with tons of flashy and expensive cars, however, there was no passerby the car came across that wouldn't halt and take a second glance at it. After about two minutes, the car arrived at the magnificent hotel and halted at the entrance gate, waiting for the gate to open so it could enter. Without much waiting at the entrance gate, after about thirty seconds of waiting, the gate automatically opened, and the car drove in. The gate took so much time because its monitor was checking the car to know if it was really worth entering the hotel as the car owner was not a regular customer of the hotel. Hence, the gate didn't recognize the car immediately when it arrived to open. The car was directed to a parking slot by the hotel attendant. Meanwhile, at an empty table, a lady was sea

    "Alright, dear. Trust me, I won't let her cross her boundaries," Rex stated."Good, boy. Always strive hard to be a good boy," she teased, and Rex laughed."Sure, mummy," Rex responded jokingly."Goodbye; I'm in the office right now, and a visitor might come in at any time.""No problem, dear, till we see again," Rex replied."Okay, but please remember our wedding is a few days from now; don't do me dirty, please," she pleaded, her voice so soft and cold that Rex could feel her emotions."Dear, worry no more. We're going to live together until nothing separates us. A mistake can't be repeated by a wise one," Rex affirmed to her, and the call ended.He let out a deep breath of relaxation.

    "Alright, I'll text her right away with your number," Andrea responded."No problem," Rex responded, and the call ended."Wonders shall never end," Rex muttered as he was surprised by what he heard. He could not believe Cassandra was still in the country."This means she broke up with Kanye, probably after she couldn't resist his inability to stop cheating anymore." Rex was curious."Well, I shall hear the full story," he concluded, and he stood up to perform his morning activities before eating.As Rex squatted down and began his martial skills, he was interrupted by the ringing of his phone; however, he ignored the call because he didn't want a disturbance. However, the call came in again after the first ringing."Maybe it would be Mr. Montgomery," he let out, quitting his action to answer the call.Mr. Montgomery is a well-known businessman Rex had recently linked up with; hence, he didn't want to miss his call.However, upon picking up the call, he heard a female voice.

    At 6:30 p.m., the party began at Rex's building.Everyone was so jubilant and dancing to the classical music rhythm that it was difficult to detect who was superior among them because they were dancing together. Rex did not show any atom of being their boss through the way he danced and associated with them.After about an hour had passed, everyone had been tired of dancing. They sat down, while Rex remained standing. It's time to let them know the purpose of the celebration party."I'm glad and excited to share this beautiful moment with you all," he remarked, clearing his throat before continuing. "I know you all must have been eager to know the reason for this urgent celebration party, right?" he asked, smiling."Definitely, sir," Tyler responded loudly."Well, this party was held to celebrate my little achievement, to celebrate how I conquered the problem I faced these past four weeks," he said, taking a deep breath.

A few minutes later, they arrived at the school, and Tyga parked the car in the parking lot and waited for Rex while he went inside to consult the school HOD. *** It was already mid-evening when Rex came out of the HOD office.
