The elevation of the zillionaire Son-In-law Chapter 78-THE GOOD NEWS
The question from Mariam left Tony stiff with no response to give, ever since he left Uncle Robert's office that was the only thought on his mind, while on the steering wheel, he couldn't find the answer to that question and even as the question lingered on the air with a thick cloud of tension, he still didn't have the right answer to the question. His heart was stomping hard on his chest and the lump was heavy on his throat as the weight of the question lingered."I haven't thought of that," Tony said with sincerity swimming in his eyes, his uncertainty about the question was palpable."What do you mean? The kidnapper said you should ask your father, there might be a connection," Collins countered with confidence evident in his tone. He couldn't believe Tony wasn't considering speaking to his father. He knew he was hurt but according to fact, all connected dots lead to his father."And that's why I'm pissed off, Collins. A man I never knew or even had any relationship with, all of a

It's been five days now and the news of the cure has spread like wildfire all over the country, even spreading across other countries.

The media and blogs weren't left out,it was the news that was spoken about for a five day stretch uninterrupted,the country felt gratitude towards Tony.

"Thank you so much Tony, this means alot to us,thank you," Helen uttered,while still smiling sheepishly but Tony wasn't smiling,his facial expression still unreadable and stoic."I said I will help you but it will come with a price," Tony uttered in his calm voice as he locked eyes with Helen. Helen felt emotions drained instantly from her face,she was blank like a statue."What!""What price?" Helen asked in a sharp voice,her tone raised much to her distress,she knew she didn't have to but she couldn't help herself. It was indeed shocking to her and she didn't think best on how to react."What price are we expected to pay for the cure?" Helen asked again but this time her voice was calm and firm,quite steady and she was grateful."Your company is the stake, fifty percent of the Lugards company," Tony said in his usual businesslike tone,he wasn't smiling or even regarded their various expressions. It was strictly business to him."Tony,I thought you have forgiven us and that you aren'

Collins sauntered into Tony's room in hasten, his feet heavy and his breathing quickened, the fear and urgency in his eyes were quick enough for Tony to notice. Collins brought Tony's phone forward, and the emotions in his eyes ignited something in Tony's heart immediately."What's it?" Tony asked the instant he saw the urgency in Collins's eyes, his own body in alert and energy surging into him, hammering heavily in his heart."Klint Morgan," Collins answered while bringing the phone closer to Tony.Tony quickly picked up the phone, his heart pumping rapidly, his shoulders clenched together in fury."What do you want?" Tony asked immediately he answered, his tone heavy but his voice was steady. As much as he wanted to shout at Klint Morgan, he couldn't ignore the fact that his Grandmother's life was solely in the hands of one man and he needed to shred with caution to avoid regret."Tony Eduardo, I see you haven't made your decision," Kilnt Morgan muttered in pure mockery laced to hi
The elevation of the zillionaire Son-In-law Chapter 82-THE PROPOSAL
Tony got to Uncle Robert's office and was surprised by the extreme quietness. The guards were nowhere to be seen and it was quite different from the Uncle Robert he knew who was always with his guards. Ignoring the sickening feeling in his heart, Tony and Collins walked into his office and were shocked to see Uncle Robert lying down in the pool of his blood."Uncle Robert!" Tony screamed out in pain, his eyes streaming with tears as he shook Uncle Robert severally while gracing for a response. Tony felt like death was closer than ever and the next target was unforeseen, he couldn't comprehend how Uncle Robert who he had just spoken to was dead and lying down in the pool of his blood. He felt regretful about how the last encounter with Uncle Robert went and how they didn't resolve things better when they had the time."Uncle Robert please wake up, I'm sorry," Tony said over again, while still shaking Uncle Robert, he was hoping for possibility and probably an action from him. Uncle Ro
The elevation of the zillionaire Son-In-law Chapter 83-Collins Plan
Just as the phone ended,there was a beep sound that came along and Tony and Collins rushed to where the sound came from and it was coming from Uncle Robert's phone. Tony locked the phone and the message read as follow,"WILL ALL THE THINGS THE STORM FAMILY STOLE FROM ME,INCLUDING YOUR COMPANYS,AND EVERY SINGLE PROPERTIES THAT YOUR FAMILY OWNS AND I WILL REVEAL MYSELF TO YOU AND STOP THE KILLING,BUT IF YOU REFUSE,YOU RISK THE LIFE OF YOUR GRANDMOTHER AND EVERY OTHER MEMBER OF THE STORM HOUSEHOLD. DON'T BOTHER CALLING THE POLICE,BECAUSE EVEN THE POLICE KNOWS KLINT MORGAN,THE HARDENED CRIMINAL.""What's the fuck,you son of a bitch," Tony screamed out and tightened the phone in his hands,upset by the discovery. How dare Klint Morgan threaten him with the Storm family inheritance,the thought of losing everything his mother suffered for all her life was definitely impossible. He couldn't even think about doing that and he was sure not even considering it at all."What's going on Tony?" Coll

"You mean Williams Storm?" Tony asked again, not believing the words he just heard Collins mutter. There was no way he was seeing Henry's father. The despicable, evil, and self-centered Williams Storm. There was no way he was going to see that man."No Collins, I would never," Tony countered straight away."Calm down Tony, I know Williams Storm is not your favorite person in the world right now, but look at the bigger picture," Collins muttered as he tried to convince Tony. It was ridiculous no doubt, but it was the best plan for now and quite authentic. Collin had hoped in his heart that Tony would understand that."What bigger picture Collins, that man is the reason why my life had gone haywire and my mother died," Tony muttered in total disagreement and pain, he was relinquishing his hurt as he spoke and he felt frustrated about it."He was the reason why I had to leave the house and was thrown to the streets to eat crumbs if not for Grandma Nicole's timely intervention," Tony sa

He couldn't dispute how fierce and strong Tony Eduardo was, which was something his son Henry Storm would never compare. The courage of Tony and his resilience was nothing short of amazing. With all the uproar happening in his life he still was kicking on was something commendable to Williams Storm.But his greatest regret was the only source they had over Tony was gone and he wasn't sure Tony would give in to his request, but still yet, he had to try."Has Tony called ever since?" He asked his secretary and personal assistant. He knew he was stooping low and that wasn't his style, but for the Storm inheritance, he was ready to stoop even lower."No sir, there had been no call from him," His secretary answered, her voice calm and very professional.Williams sighed deeply, though he was surprised but he thought Tony would have considered, for what it was worth, whatever had made him call him, was some

Tony knew they were going to come for him so he asked to leave and he did without knowing what his friend was planning to do."Tony, why am I being questioned about Tony. I am neither his mother nor his family relative. So why me,"Collins asked, his voice shaking. His demeanour was filled with fear and he was visibly shaking."Is that even a question for you to ask, from my informant, you're Tony's best friend and his closest ally.
