"Alright Lord Lincoln it is done."
"In the next few minutes I will be sending out the information to the other directors for immediate execution."
Mr Chang immediately said, his voice was barely above whispers but laced with assurance.
"I will be expecting an update."
Kyle said as he immediately hung up the call.
45 seconds later, Kyle and Carlos Alfred got the notifications on their phones.
"That was fast." Carlos Alfred said as he stared at his phone.
"This should teach the Hunters and the Martin's who's the boss around here."
Kyle said as he and Carlos Alfred laughed out loud.
"Those girls are animals, I really still can't believe they made that horrible video of you."
Kyle stared at Carlos Alfred and smiled, "I have had worse experiences especially from Mr Stephen and Martha Webs."
His voice was barely above whispers.
Picking up his phone he stared at it in shock.
"Wait a minute!"
"The moment we pulled off the Platinum Guard Investors support from the Hunters and Martin's family businesses, their business stock plunged to -92%."
"Plus all their investors are selling their stocks on a loss."
"Now they just declared bankruptcy some minutes ago."
Kyle said as he stared at Carlos Alfred.
"Carlos Alfred, this is almost too much power."
Kyle immediately added, as his voice was laced with exhilaration.
"You haven't seen anything yet, Lord Lincoln."
Carlos Alfred immediately added as he laughed out.
Kyle immediately paced around the safe room slowly, "They deserve it, every bit of it is well deserving for them."
"Carlos Alfred, where have you been all this while that I have been suffering?"
Kyle immediately asked as he stared askance at Carlos Alfred.
Carlos Alfred stared back at him, his eyes widened in a mixture of disappointment and frustration.
"Lord Lincoln, I really searched for you, it's just that your dad really made sure you were hard to find."
"I only got to know of your existence some days ago."
Carlos Alfred explained as they continued searching through the safe.
"What I really don't understand is why your dad would keep your birth a secret."
"Seems to me that he knows something that you don't know."
As the search continued, they found hidden pictures of baby Kyle and his parents.
"When was this taken?"
Kyle immediately asked, his eyebrows furrowed in bewilderment.
"I really don't know Lord Lincoln, at this point I'm as confused as you are."
"I could recall a press conference with the top business elite and your dad was asked if he had any plans for an heir and he said no and smiled gleefully."
"I'm just as surprised as you are to some of these findings."
Carlos Alfred said as he stared at the pictures, his eyes were focused on a gold frame in the background of the picture.
"What is it Carlos Alfred?" Kyle immediately asked as he noticed the unease look in his eyes.
"It's nothing."
"It's just that I don't recall this gold frame anywhere around Lincoln's mansion."
Carlos Alfred said as he gave Kyle the pictures.
"I really need to find out why your dad sent me off his helicopter the night of the crash."
"It all seems strange and confusing."
"But I know something is missing in this whole media story, although I actually saw the crash remains of the helicopter."
"But my question is why?"
"Why did the helicopter blow up that very night?"
"I mean I'm no pilot but I assisted Nathan Lewis the pilot of the helicopter that night to inspect the helicopter before take off and he confirmed we were ready to go."
"So what the hell went wrong?"
Carlos Alfred asked as he plopped into the luxury leather chair in the safe room.
"To make matters worse, the police are just acting all strange about the crash."
His voice was laced with disappointment.
"Don't worry Carlos Alfred, we will find out what really happened that night…we just need to be patient and keep digging deep."
Just then Kyle's phone rang and he immediately picked up the phone and stared at the screen.
"Who is that?"
Carlos Alfred asked, his eyebrows furrowed in a mixture of anger and frustration.
Kyle stared at him immediately, "Oh, it's David…my friend."
"Don't answer it!"
Carlos Alfred yelled immediately, his voice was laced with a mixture of caution and anxiety.
Kyle immediately stared at him again, this time his gaze was laced with bewilderment and anxiety.
"Why not?"
"David is my friend."
Kyle spoke out in the defense of his friend, his voice was barely above whispers.
"Your friend right?"
"What about Jefferson Edward, wasn't he your friend too, but he stabbed you in the back and took Chloe Walter from you."
Carlos Alfred said as he paced around the safe room.
"Lord Lincoln, I think it's time to lose this friend of yours."
"I mean for all we know that David you call a friend could be a spy or an enemy."
Kyle gasped and stared at Carlos Alfred in bewilderment.
"How could you be sure David is a spy?"
Kyle asked as he silenced the phone and stared askance at Carlos Alfred for an explanation.
Carlos Alfred stared at him and shook his head.
Standing up immediately he walked to Kyle and held his shoulders.
"Lord Lincoln, I was your father's personal guard and I don't want what happened to your parents to happen to you."
"You just have to be careful with all these people, David, the Webs and others."
"We have yet to know who our real enemy is yet."
Carlos Alfred said, his voice was barely above whispers and laced with reason as Kyle nodded.
"Can I take the call here?"
Kyle asked, his voice was barely above whispers.
"Nope until you get out of this secured facility."
"For security reasons."
Carlos Alfred immediately said as Kyle pocketed his phone.
"Let's keep looking for more clues."
Carlos Alfred said, his voice was barely above whispers.
The search was fast, just then Carlos Alfred noticed that Kyle wasn't searching anymore.
He immediately turned and to his shock, Kyle was no were to be found.
Carlos Alfred's heart raced vehemently, beads of sweat building up his face.
"Lord Lincoln…where are you?"
The situation was intense as Carlos Alfred searched through but safe house for Kyle.Pushing open a door frantically, his gaze fell on Kyle who was backing him."Lord Lincoln, what are you doing here?"Carlos Alfred asked, his voice barely above whispers as he approached Kyle."Carlos Alfred, you have got to check out this book that I just saw."Kyle immediately said as he turned to face Carlos Alfred.Carlos Alfred immediately took a heavy breath of relief."Lord Lincoln, you really got me frightened back there.""How did you access this part of the safe room?"Carlos Alfred asked, his voice was barely above whispers as he stared at the weird book in his hand."My palm…it seems to be the key to practically everything in this room."Kyle said as he stared too at the book in his hand."Carlos Alfred what do you make of this book that has a biometric lock?"Kyle asked as he examined the book."Careful with that Lord Lincoln!"Carlos Alfred immediately screamed.Kyle immediately smiled g
"Mr Carlos Alfred.""It appears your secret code ain't any secret code."Jake immediately broke the shocking revelation to Kyle and Carlos Alfred who stared at the phone in bewilderment."What do you mean by that?""We found that code in a secured vault…there is no way it's not a secret code."Carlos Alfred immediately said, his voice was ortund.Jake kept silent for a while and then gave out a silent giggle."Jake!" Kyle immediately screamed."Okay you got me… it's a secret code and it belongs to Mr Douglas Lincoln."Jake said laughing out loud."It appears to be the code of 1 of his 32184 depository boxes at Vortex Vaults, the world's most secure vault system."Jake added now losing his playfully demeanor and putting on a serious look."Nice work Jake…nice work."Kyle immediately said, his voice was laced with respect for the young boy's expertise."I heard you run my dad's cyber security company?""Yes Lord Lincoln… I do."Jake replied, smiling gleefully from his seat in the Lincol
The situation was intense and palpable as Kyle paced around and began."It all began the day I was adopted into the Webs family…My foster mom, Martha Webs saw the key stuff on my neck and she took it.""She was like…I will keep it for you whenever you need it, you can come get it.""I trusted her and let her keep it…I didn't even know what it was, all I can remember is that I have always had it from the orphanage."Kyle Immediately cleared his throat and continued, "Since then I have tried asking her and she keeps saying it's lost.""It wasn't until last week I saw the star key on Sophia's neck.""I had earlier overheard Mrs Martha telling Sophia to keep the stuff which she gave her safe.""Immediately I saw the star key on the neck of Sophia, I immediately realized that it might be what her mom was talking about.""I didn't think it was that important so I hadn't confronted Sophia over the star key."As Kyle narrated, Carlos Alfred just stared at him, nodding his head slowly."This i
"Lord Lincoln, I would never lie to you." "Your grandmother, Lady Isabella Lincoln, is perfectly okay… what matters now is finding that star key." "We need to know what your dad has inside of those depository boxes." Carlos Alfred said, his voice was barely above whispers yet laced with assurance. Kyle stared at him, nodded and ran off to the Web's mansion. ************************************************ Now inside the Web's mansion, Kyle enters the ante room and turns, immediately he bumped into Juliet, the maid at the Web's mansion. "What the heck!... don't you watch where you are going?" Kyle immediately screamed as he held Juliet from falling to the ground. "I'm really sorry I didn't see you there." Juliet said as she immediately broke herself off Kyle. "Where have you been Kyle…I have really missed you." Juliet's voice was mellifluous as she smiled at Kyle. "What are you talking about?" Kyle immediately asked as his demeanor changed from exhilaration to a mixture o
I…I…You are what, kyle? Blurted out Juliet as she stared askance at Kyle who was still looking furious and confused trying to find the perfect excuse to his reason for stepping into Sophia's room in her absence.Sophia, realizing that she had sounded harsh to Kyle, turned down her tune and proceeded to ask him politely.“You are in Sophia's room, I hope you know that, and why's that so”?“You know how crazy she gets when I don't do her laundry or attend to her room”. Kyle's voice turned mellifluous.So I decided to check if by chance she had any dirty laundry. If you don't believe me, here's my broom and dustpan.Juliet said, her voice was barely above whispers and laced with a mixture of trepidation and anxiety.“How is it that some minutes ago, you made mention of trying to find something and here you are… in Juliet's room”. “And what's that you just placed in your pocket as you are pretending to be working?”.Kyle immediately swallowed a hard lump…“It's nothing Juliet… It's not
I can't believe this."Kyle Lincoln, you have got to see this."David's voice was laced with urgency as he dragged Kyle out of his chair and straight to the school Cafeteria."Dude, what the hell!""Quit pulling me around as if I'm some horse!"Kyle immediately shunned his friend."Kyle, if you know how serious this issue is you would leave me and run down to the cafeteria yourself."David's voice was barely above whispers as he bent down to catch his breath as he had ran all the way down to Kyle's lecture room.Leaving his friend, Kyle immediately raced down to the school Cafeteria.On reaching there, students were gathered and taking pictures of two people."What is going on here?" Kyle asked one of the students who started laughing at him and took a picture of him, the flash light of her iPhone almost blinding him.Pushing his way through the crowd, he finally found his way to the front of the crowd.What Kyle saw almost made him faint."Chloe!""What are you doing?"Kyle immediate
"Get into the car!"The man in the Armani suite said as he opened the door of a military grade armored Escalade."But my bike!"Kyle immediately screamed pointing to the direction of the garage."Forget your bike.""Lord Lincoln, your life is more important to me…get in now!"Immediately Kyle got in, the man immediately drove off.Moments later, Kyle is staring at the man driving the Escalade."Sorry, who are you again?" Kyle immediately asked as they were far off from the Silicon Mountain university view.The man remained silent, he was putting on dark shades that made it really hard to see his face in a way."I asked a question and I demand answers immediately."Kyle immediately yelled as he was now getting uncomfortable with the whole situation.Staring behind him he immediately noticed that they were already on their way outside of Silicon Mountain.He immediately swallowed a heavy lump as he stared at the man who was still focused on the road."Help me!!!"Kyle yelled as they spe
"I would love you to keep your cool and lay low at the Webs until we figure out what actually happened to your dad's helicopter and more importantly why it happened."Carlos Alfred said, his voice was laced with reason.Kyle stared at him as he pondered on what he just told him."You are definitely right, if my father's helicopter crash was a coverup news that means that I might be a possible next target."Kyle added, his face now etched with a mixture of trepidation and anxiety."Lord Lincoln, I'm pretty sure no one is aware of your existence.""Your dad did a great job hiding your birth from the world and I believe it was for a purpose.""Right now, like I said, lay low at your foster home and together we will figure out what happened to your father's helicopter that night."Carlos Alfred's voice was laced with a hint of assurance and security.Kyle only stared back and forth at Carlos Alfred and his mom's ATM card that had access to trillions of dollars.***************************
