CHAPTER 5
***
The night in the cell was hell for Chris as no one came over, he was so anxious that he freaked out being there and prayed silently to get out so he could confirm his reality or illusion that was sent to his phone.
"Did the bank later change their minds?"
He muttered to himself. "But I never requested more than that."
Chris was in a haywire as he couldn't wait to get out while Logan was gathering evidence of his deeds to make sure he stays there.
He was aware of Darius but he didn't know the person working for him was his son in Law, he had done some research and not even a decent background was displayed about Chris which would make it easier to pin him down.
He has taken down different companies and killed two of his fellow allies who were Involved in dirty politics and drugs and now he was coming for him.
"Why don't we use him, boss?" One of his men had suggested it and he thought about it.
"It won't be easy, he's working for Darius"
"Do you think Darius would treat him fairly? He's so wretched, inviting him with a cash payment would easily sway him."
"Hmm.." Logan nodded in agreement as he thought of that too. He could use him to bring down Darius' group of companies to his name and reward him handsomely or even kill him when he's done.
"Call the police," Logan ordered him as he leaned back on the chair and waited for them to receive it as it was placed on the loudspeaker.
"Mr Logan?" The voice echoed through.
"Yeah, it's me. Release Chris Brent from the Cell and direct him to meet me immediately."
"Huh…really?"
"Get the fuck away from my phone and do just that!" He slammed irritatedly and cut the call.
The phone ran after some seconds and he groaned inwardly and picked it up.
"I'm sorry Mr Logan but Chris has been released this morning."
He said at the other end and Logan sat up in shock.
"What, who released him?" There's no way Darius would do that, he was so sure of that.
"I don't know either, it was from a higher authority."
Logan scoffed and cut the call as he knew that something was wrong somewhere.
Chris on the other hand confirmed his fears immediately after he was asked to be released, he didn't care to ask who bail him out as he rushed to his phone to still see the amount being credited into his account.
"So I wasn't imagining things?" He muttered in surprise and tried to access the sender but he couldn't. It was anonymous and it wasn't from a bank.
His excitement was so evident in his eyes as he rushed to the company and got the account details to credit the company's account so he could use it and pay for whatever ransom Logan was requesting.
He would pay the sender later if he ever comes around to ask.
Right now, his family was more important.
Chris rushed back to the Mansion to see Darius, everyone was so shocked, they knew it would be hard for him to get out as Darius wasn't in the mood to help.
"I'm glad you're back!" Mia exclaimed and went to hug him but he pushed her aside carefully. If not for the pregnancy she was carrying he would have pushed her so hard as long as no one was watching.
"Chris?"
"What is it, Mia? Are you disappointed that I'm back?"
Chris asked her irritatedly, he couldn't believe that the woman he loved so much never saw her as a Man but a puppet for her father.
"Why are you so salty? You need to listen to this."
"Save it, Mia, I won't." He slammed and walked out to meet her dad who was having his breakfast.
Darius didn't react to his presence but he was shocked, the Logan he knew would never let Chris out of that cell, not after he had evidence that he was his son-in-law.
"Chris…" he called softly and Chris faked a smile, gulping his Saliva at the sumptuous meal they were eating. He never has the Rare opportunity of tasting that.
He had better leave this place before his stomach rumbled and disgrace him.
"I've gotten the money." He blurted out and Darius spat out the food in his mouth in shock.
"What sort of joke is that?" He sounded pissed that he came to distract his meal with such absurd news when the deed is already done.
"I'm not joking, I've credited it to the company's account and I'll place a statement tomorrow to pay for the required amount," Chris said, stretching the receipt to Darius who collected it and scanned the contents and his eyes almost bulged out in surprise. The account was under his name.
"Which bank gave you this loan!" He smashed the cup he was holding on the floor in anger.
"I specifically told them not to give you a penny so you won't bankrupt my company!"
"You told them?" Chris asked with spite, he already knew the order behind the incessant rejection but he was just curious to know which someone can be so cruel.
"How did you get this?" Darius asked.
"How do you expect me to get the money after shutting all the banks to cut their loan from me? Why are you doing this?" Chris yelled in pain.
"Stop answering me with questions and answer me! Did you touch my money?"
"I never did that, I was thrown into the cell barely after minutes of leaving the bank. I don't know how I got it but don't hurt my family! I've done what you requested in one day."
He scoffed and shrugged his shoulders.
"You were never going to come back under Logan's orders, how was I supposed to know?"
Darius said and picked the bacon on his plate to eat while Chris frowned so hard that his heartbeat increased its tempo.
"What do you mean?" He asked, barely in whispers and Darius sighed.
"I've burnt your parent's house, that's the least I could find."

THE SON THEY NEVER WANTEDCHAPTER 6****Chris' ears blazed in hot fury as he couldn't believe what Darius just uttered before him right now. He stared at the cheque payment in his hands as he chuckled bitterly."What did..you…just say?" He picked on his words and Darius sighed."You were never going to come out of that cell, why would I sit and do nothing when you made a promise?""BY BURNING THEIR HOUSE?"Chris erupted in fury, forgetting his existence but the anger that was boiling in his entire system."I only burnt a useless thatched house, now that you've paid for the damages done to my company, they are now free from my mansion."Darius dismissed him and Chis gritted his teeth in anger. This is the highest of what he could tolerate, it was too much for him to handle as his heart burned in pain. He badly wanted to smash his head to the wall right now and make him feel every inch of pain he has caused him."How did you get this money?" He asked casually."Nothing!!" Chris yelled

Darius prayed silently in his heart as he smiled at Thompson Brook." Can I spend the night here?"Thompson blurted out and Darius spat out his drink in shock "What?" He gasped."I'm afraid I might miss my schedule, your house is quite fancy and classy. I'll pay if you don't mind please."He said with so much class and elegance that Darius nodded rep

He blurted out and they all stared at him like a mouse and the effrontery he possessed to have suggested that."If you're going to hurt my family, I'll release the tapes of you ordering me to kill the allies that were a threat to you!"Chris slammed and that swept them off the table. Darius swallowed so hard that he clenched his fingers tight under the table.That was not a condition but a heavy threat.How dare he impose a threat to his father-in-law in his useless and shabby state "What the Fuck Chris?"

He asked again but he was ignored."The left turn, we must go to a secluded place to get the stuff!" One of them uttered and Chris frowned deeply, swallowing hard and sweating under the air-conditioned car."What stuff are you talking about?" He asked desperately "Where's the video?" The one who punched him asked harshly and he gasped."What video are you talking about?""The exact video you're hiding!" He yelled. "You have just a few minutes to start talking before we get to our destination or you'll meet your father's death!" They warned and Chris's eyes snapped clear at once.Darius sent these men after him, it was so obvious they were talking about the video he had threatened him about and he would rather die than have it out to them.

Not that any of what this rich man was saying is true."Say something Please," Thompson said worriedly after gauging a while at Chris's expression, he knew immediately that the two might have bad blood which might make things even worse. He swallowed bitterly as he regretted even mentioning Logan's name, that boy was nothing but a headache to him."There's nothing to say Mr. Thompson 'cause none of what you just uttered is true." Chris blurted out."Chris please…" He clenched his jaw tightly. "I'll not let you go back to that house and watch you suffer!" "Your presence is already making me mad!" Chris yelled and he flinched.

Not only that, the sweet Mia of last night asked him to get up to make breakfast for the family."What the hell Mia?" He gasped at her, writhing in disgust."You're not resting Chris, my family is going to wake up at any moment to eat and you're still on that bed. Get the fuck up, Chris?" She half yelled at him and he was dazed, twitching his lips and trying to calm his vibrating hands.Jesus Christ!What the hell was he even thinking last night?"Why did you wipe out my files Mia?"

She said, almost going over to hug him but refrained. They were here to deal with these scumbags and not to display any emotions."Something happened, but we are fine. What are you doing with them?" He couldn't help but gasp. He wasn't expecting such a twist of events. Why was she freely walking with the man who almost took his father's Life?"I know Chris, I understand your countenance right now but they've helped a lot and you will ask your mother why she allowed me to walk with them.""I don't trust them a bit!"

I'll check Derrick on your behalf and I'm sure that your mother would be there too." She tried to convince him and the thought that he had failed his tasks because of Darius and Ryker, fueled him in rage. He gritted his teeth and he knew that moment that he needed to teach someone a lesson before he broke down."Alright then, just keep me updated." He replied to her."And Tessy?" He called her again and she raised her brows."Thank you." He told her genuinely and she shrugged."For what? Looking after your brother?" Chris chuckled and shook his head."No, for everything.

They looked so dazed for a moment until Melissa decided to break the silence, clearing her throat."Thompson!" She called out shakily and the rage that flowed through him was primal. Not because of her presence but because she was alive and he wasn't aware, Chris couldn't even let him know about that as well and he was lost in his work world thinking that she was dead. Blaming himself bitterly over her death over and over again"So you were into hiding?"He asked her with a snort and she shook her head."It's a long story.""Yeah, but I bet that story was supposed to reach my side too.

He asked her oblivious to the presence of the men behind him."I don't know, I can't explain how the fire came up. But from what we observed it was an overheat in electrical gadgets and appliances. Last night, everything went blank and we stayed in the dark for the house without knowing the source.

Melissa continues and gets confident that he would budge to her demands as that's the level of trust Vike has in her."I already released her a few hours ago, after your call which reeks of danger, I had to send my men over. I still can't believe or get over the fact that you're alive. Damn!
