Chapter 4: good news
The man approached him and hugged him. Richard was surprised and gently pushed him away. The man pulled away from him and looked at him with a big smile.
The moved old man said with tears in his eyes "Richard, young master, you have grown a lot, you are no longer the little boy I knew, you are now a man". In his voice we could feel joy and excitement.
"Are you Mr. Robert?" Richard asked uncertainly.
“Yes, it's me! It's me! " The old man said in joy .
Richard was surprised . Mr Robert been loyal to the Johnson's family how had he approached him so warmly?
Richard's face changed to give way to hostility "how can I not remember you, when you chased my parents and me away like vulgar dogs. What do you want from me Mr. Robert?" He asked, frowning.
"Your grandfather is looking for you, when he learned of the death of your parents, he was so sad that he sank into depression, since then he has been looking for you Richard. And after chasing you, he stayed to surrender. Realize that your father had not made a bad investment but rather a very big investment, he had been looking for you for a long time but in vain. He is very sorry for having caused you and your parents to suffer. He would like you to come home "Mr Robert said with a pleading look.
Richard's face froze then he laughed, it was an angry laugh. He said coldly, "How dare he look for me when they chased my parents and me away like vulgar dogs, tell me! If he hadn't kicked us out, my parents surely wouldn't have died and I will not be in such a situation. Look at me Mr Robert I am a beggar, a man without dignity " Richard stamped his foot on the ground to evacuate his anger, he will never forget the way in which his grandfather drove them out of his home .
After his grandfather chased them out of his house, with the little money they had, they decided to change state mainly because his grandfather had said that if he ever saw them again, he would never see them again. would not hesitate for a second to kill all three of them.
Once settled in a new state, in Karta city, in order to support themselves, his parents went to different cities to buy groceries and returned to sell them in Karta city. But their last trip was a trip of no return. After they died when he was only 8 years old, he was placed in an orphanage.
"Young master, Mr. Johnson gave this for you in case I find you," he took a card out of his pocket and handed it to a startled Richard.
Seeing the surprise on her face, Mr. Robert hastened to explain to her. "Young master, you are no longer afraid, take this card, it contains 5 billion dollars it is for you, it is a certified card, that is to say that it gives you access to many more things and privilege than just a card. Think of it as compensation."
What ? $5 billion? For him ? It was unimaginable, he couldn't believe his ears. He wanted to refuse when he thought about the death of his parents but took when he thought of Hellen and the promise he had made he decided to take this money. After all it was also compensation for him.
"Thank you for the money. But know that I won't set foot in Grandpa's again and I won't forgive him for anything in the world for what he did." Richard said coldly before taking the card.
Mr. Robert said in a calm and friendly tone "it does not matter young master, the main thing for now is that I have found you. Mr. Johnson will be very happy". He took a card out of his pocket and handed it to her, "Hold this young master, call me if you need anything."
Richard took the card shyly then read it, Mr Robert saw the tangle on his face and asked him "a problem young master?".
Richard couldn't believe it, on the card he could distinctly read that the fashion show company belonged to his grandfather, and at the moment, he remembered where he had heard that name from, it was during the meeting. of the Travisons, a meeting where a cleaning lady had caught him spying.
Richard asked stunned "does the fashion show business belong to grandfather?"
Mr Robert smiles before answering him as if nothing was "yes young master this company belongs to your grandfather and now it belongs to you at 50% and if you come home you will have even more".
What ? Was the fashion show business 50% owned by him now? The company the Travison family once dreamed of working with was now owned by him at
50%. His heart was filled with joy.
Richard still says in shock “you mean this company is 50% mine?”. He turned on himself to take a good look at the enterprise, to consider it.
Mr Robert patted him on the left shoulder then laughed "yes young master! I'm so happy to have found you, I'm going to announce the good news to Mr Johnson, he will be very delighted".
He hugged him and turned to leave then retraced his steps before telling him kindly with a wide smile "young master don't hesitate to call me if you need help". He turned and left.
Richard watched him walk away, he was still in shock. He only took his eyes off of him when he got into his car and drove off. He pinched himself to know if he was dreaming, he felt the pain so he wasn't dreaming.
He was now half owner of the largest company in the country, had $5 billion in the bank. Finally he was going to be able to take care of his wife like a real husband, and now his beautiful family was going to respect him and his wife.
He remained motionless for about two minutes while he regained his senses and digested what had just happened to him, then jumped for joy and exclaimed "finally! Finally, Hellen you will be respected. God has avenged me. thank you lord! "
The people who entered the company were surprised, all took him for a madman, and stared at him seeing his attire and the way he had shouted and jumped for joy.
“What is this mad, vulgar dog doing here? How did he get through security?” asked an old lady on duty in the company, looking at him like a rot.
Richard didn't even pay attention to him after all he was now a billionaire. Did she even know that he now owned 50% of this company and could have her fired instantly?
Richard came out of the company fashion show happy, he got on his bike and started pedaling towards the secure money bank to check the balance of his bank account. Because he still couldn't believe it, he had to be sure that he really was a billionaire.
After 20 minutes of pedaling, he arrived at the secure money bank, got off his bike, and hurried up the stairs.
He heard a noise behind him and turned around, it was his bike that had just fallen. He was in such a hurry that he didn't chain it.
He quickly descended the stairs, chained his bike and climbed back at full speed until he bumped into someone, when he lifted his head, he swore surprised "him again?"
Chapter 5He had just entered Mr Eliott, this day definitely revealed many surprises to him.Mr Eliott stopped his arm and looked at him for a moment, his face telling him something but he couldn't remember where he knew him from.When he remembered, he said in a mocking tone "aren't you the slave of the Travison family? I see that you really like getting into people". Richard said with an emotionless face "Sir, I'm sorry, I didn't see you".Mr. Elliot haughtily said "What's a waste like you doing in a big bank like this? Aah I see you're doing an errand for the Travison family"."I have nothing to say to you sir, please let go of my arm I'm in a hurry" Richard said pulling his arm out of his hand.He pulled his hand away and walked into the bank, Mr. Elliot not realizing what had just happened. How could a trash talk to him like that?He swore angrily "What a fool, by what right does he dare speak to me like that?" He went to get into his car and left the bank in a rage."Hello sir
The bank manager walked towards them, his face filled with incomprehension. “What are you doing gathered here? Are we in the court of the petro king? This is a bank and not a show shop." he said angry. The employee rushed to answer him "hello sir! It's this gentleman dressed like a tramp, he claims to have a certified card sticking out for the others, he's the one who created all this scandal" she said, fingering Richard. She hastened to tell him because she was afraid of being fired. The bank manager turned and looked at Richard with a curious air "sir, it was you who caused all this?" "Yes sir it's him! Guard, please step outside" the clerk said hastily. "Sir, I didn't cause anything, I came here to know the balance of my account and withdraw money but this lady refuses to offer me these services" Richard said annoyed. "Sir ask him to show you his card and you will see for yourself" the employee explained looking at him. When she said that, Johnathan added "yes Richard show
He pedaled while miming the words of a song that his parents liked to sing to him when he was little, which brought back some memories of his childhood, he missed his parents a lot, he felt a void in him. A tear escaped his eyes and crashed on the handlebars of his bike and in that moment he knew he would never forgive his grandfather, even if he wanted to, he would never get there.Another tear fell and he quickly wiped it away with the back of his hand. Then he began to think about how he was going to give Hellen the money, if he had to tell him that he was now rich or he had to hide it. He was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn't see a car speeding towards him. He looked up and saw the car rushing towards him, he avoided it at the last second."You bastard! Motherfucker! Can't you watch where you're going? What are you doing on a road like this with a bike?" The angry car driver insulted him before continuing on his way.Richard didn't even pay attention to him, he didn't eve
She turned to face him, looked at him in amazement, then laughed so hard that everyone in the house heard her laugh. Richard didn't understand why what he had said amused her so much. He was very serious, and what he said was true.Elena stormed into the bedroom . Seeing her,Hellen stopped laughing and looked serious."Honey what's going on? Why are you laughing so hard? We hear you all over the villa" Elena asked, frowning."Sorry mum! Richard was telling me such funny jokes, I couldn't help but laugh." Lied Hellen, because she couldn't tell her mother the truth, that Richard had just told her he was a billionaire. How would she react? She would surely have thought Richard was crazy, and that was going to get him in more trouble than he already has.Elena wasn't totally convinced by what she had just said, but didn't insist at the risk of offending her and making her no longer want to go out with Mr Eliott. Such the materialist that she was, she only thought about money. She smiled
Hellen spoke, which snapped him out of his thoughts"Harley invited me, she asked me to come accompanied and since mom, dad, Emerald and Solomon are at grandma's, so there is only you to accompany me".Richard was disappointed to be his last choice."Who will be at this party?" He asked with a raised eyebrow. He didn't want to have any bad surprises, already being in the same place as Sarah was going to be difficult for him and if we added more of Hellen's friends it was going to be hell for him."I don't know, probably lots of our other friends," she said disinterestedly."I have to go? I mean you know your friends don't like me especially Sarah.""Believe me, I don't want it any more than you do. But if you don't, it's fine, I'll manage to find someone else" she says, turning to leave the laundry room, hoping that he will stop her and that's what he did."It's okay, no need, I'll go with you" he said in spite of himself."Okay! Great get ready, we're leaving in an hour" she said befo
Chapter 10Harley didn't believe what she had just heard, then she asked aloud, "How come it's so expensive? Didn't you make a mistake?"The waiter frowned, handed her the bill, saying, "Check the bill yourself. The lady next to you just ordered braised A5 meat which costs $10,000..."Hearing the server's words, everyone jumped and then looked at Lynseh, who was sitting next to Sarah. She had just finished her meat.Everyone looked at her. Lynseh panicked and instinctively paled. "I...I didn't know this meat was so expensive...Harley, I'm sorry..." she apologized.Harley said fiercely, "Your apologies won't help now...I only have about 10,000 fucking dollars..."After a moment of silence, Harley gritted her teeth, looked at everyone, and said, "Well...could someone have some money on hand? Help me pay the bill, and I I'll give it to you later."Hearing this, everyone checked their wallets. Linsey said she didn't take any money with her. Sarah took out about 1000 dollars. Hellen and Dy
Chapter 11:"What? What's the matter?" He asked her. Fear crept into his voice."Richard what the fuck is your problem! Why can't you hold your tongue?" Hellen asked trying to be as calm as possible.When Hellen spoke trying to be calm, nothing was right and Richard knew it."I don't understand you, what did I do?" Richard really didn't understand what she meant. What else had he done this time? He had behaved well these last few days, hadn't he?"Don't play that with me, you know what you did." She said raising the tone of her voice."But..." She cut him off before he finished speaking."Shut up and follow me!" She said before leaving the room.Richard wanted to ask a question but refrained, he knew it was only going to make the situation worse, he just followed her without flinching. At this moment, he asked himself a thousand and one questions.What had he done?Where were they going?Was it something serious?Her heart pounding, Hellen headed for the matriarch Mrs. Travison's hous
Richard frowned and widened his eyes not understanding where she was coming from. She wanted a deal with him? What deal? And with him Richard? That was a good joke."What? Did I say something wrong?" Emerald asked him, not understanding his astonishment."Tell me what do you want?" Richard asked in a cold tone."Oh oh! Stop! Here I'm the one asking the questions and you just answer them, okay?" She said, looking at him with contempt.Richard looked at her and said nothing."Okay I guess you understood, as I was saying earlier, I would like to make a deal with you" she stopped, looked at him before continuing "I would like you to be my courier and in exchange I will do my best to that we keep you in this house, so of course you do what I tell you without complaining. No need to thank me, I know I'm a girl with a big heart" she said this last sentence with stars in her eyes .She had a cult of her personality, so how could a naughty girl like her said she had a big heart? No, but who w
