The unexpected rise of Ric Maximilanno Chapter 54
Ric had a told his friends that he ha a lot of errands to run so he was going to be a bit late for the launch. However Ric had several meetings to attend and different regulatory boards sort him because of his new project. News had spread in days about the new project of a smart estate being proposed by the new president of the Milano group of companies. Several people suspected that he was the same that had just been elected as chairman of the Hemsworth board but that information was reserved for only the top one percent of the Elites in the city. "Good afternoon Mr. Maximillano," Ric's secretary and the vice president greeted him cautiously. She knew Ric because he always accessed the building through a particular entrance and accessed his office through a separate elevator but she had never seen his face before as he always hid it underneath shades. Ric was not exactly trying to hide his identity from her since she was quite prominent and has no idea about his dual perso
The unexpected rise of Ric Maximilanno Chapter 55
Melissa had been married to Ric for over a year and in that time, she lived with him and saw him everyday so the glasses were not enough mask. She immediately recognized him. "I'm sorry Ma'am but please the both of you have to leave immediately." Rachel insisted more this time for fear of losing her position or even her job because of the stubbornness of the couple. Ric did not enter back into his office when he saw them, rather he walked right to them and spoke very few words. "It's fine if they won't leave, severe all ties with them at once." He spoke with that very thick Mexican accent that Melissa doubted it was Ric behind the glasses even if the man had similar features and physique as Ric. Just as Alessandro was about to go on his knees to hold onto Ric by his legs and beg, he got a kick from Ric and security immediately picked him and Melissa away. It was very embarrassing the way the security had dragged Melissa and Alessandro out of the building entirely and it was even

The Launch started and a variety of food was displayed on several tables with the most exclusive and expensive ones being displayed on tables with the Elites seated round them. The table Camille sat in coincidentally had Aaliyah and Lisa seated there along with several of the young men and women Ric had met at the Artificial Intelligence launch. "Oh Brother you came!" Gregory Martinez said when he saw Ric. Gregory was also a second generation rich man whose family was into interior decoration, he was also familiar with Ric from that day so most on the table easily accepted Ric since they were quite acquainted with him already. The Launch went smoothly and everyone had a bite of variety appetizers, main dishes and desserts. Ric had barely picked his plate most times and same with Aaliyah, the duo often glanced at each other during the event. Meanwhile Lisa tried her best to keep her mouth shut in order not to ruin Aaliyah's mood, Lisa had noticed that Aaliyah often got upset w

Lisa was the first to jump on the statement but one look at her friend Aaliyah and she immediately kept calm. "Yes he is," Lisa had already said what she said before she realized that Aaliyah had cautioned her to be discreet about Ric's past. "What?" Camille was shocked at the revelation but he asked to be double sure. "What right do you have to slander someone like that?" Gregory was so angry that he didn't care if what Leonard said was true or false. "Actually what he said was --" "You don't have to justify fire or defend anything he said, what gives him the right to talk about people's private lives in public?" At this time, Gregory was already raising his voice and people began to pay attention to the commotion. "I was just giving the Gullathova mistress a warning so ---" "The audacity he has to continue talking instead of apologizing." Camille stood to his feet furious. The turmoil continued, Ric suddenly got on his feet catching the attention of everyone, he looked like

Leonard's eyes widened in shock. Ric left his side, he walked over to Aaliyah's side Aaliyah was in her seat paying full attention to what was going on in the room. Seeing Ric walking close to them, Lisa who had a little smile on her face scampered away from her friend Aaliyah giving her some privacy with Ric “Do you want me to drop you home now?” Ric gently asked her again, sitting on the empty seat right beside her. “Are you finally taking your chances?” Camila teased Ric interrupting the scene. “Woah, I can’t believe someone is making his moves behind us.” Grey’s voice also came in. They had ignored Leonard leaving him to deal with his shit by himself. After all, they weren’t there when he caused it and he had completely denied that his family was keeping the secret too not until there was sudden news about it. “You should give them some privacy at least.” Lisa was so fast to pull both Camila and Grey away, leaving the two on the seat. Aaliyah had a little smile tugged a

Ric face hurt from the unexpected punch he received from Leonard. He wasn’t expecting Leonard to punch him so hard. Seeing his face it was obvious he held a lot of grudges towards him. Leonard had always hated him at first, but he hated him even more at the thought of him being behind his sudden misfortune. His family reputation which he was trying to build and improve suddenly crumbled completely to the ground At this rate, no one will want anything to do with them. Even his fixed appointments with the men of the higher class are automatically canceled. Leonard's anger increased even more at the thought of it. Ric massaged his face that hurt and watched Leonard who had a smirk across his face towards him Leonard walked close to Ric and suddenly grabbed him by his collar again. “What on earth did you do?” He yelled at his face out of anger. Ric only chuckled. “I did nothing, After all, I wasn’t worthy to be here just a few minutes ago, I was nothing but a killer.” He s

“Ok, fine, I will beg,” Leonard said, falling to his knees, he couldn't bear to look at their faces for a couple of seconds, because he needed no one else to tell him that he had fucked up. Deep down he was feeling shitty, seeing the expression on their face will only make the way he is feeling worsen. “I am sorry. I am on my knees, begging from the depth of my heart, whoever it is that did this, should please forgive me,” he pleaded, his voice filled with conviction. He raised his head to stare at Ric, “Please,” It was him, it had to be him, ‘cause no one else left the room, he was the only one that excused himself and in a couple of seconds, his life was already in ruins. “Wait, you guys want me to place my head on the floor and beg, huh?” he asked with a desperate tone, still keeping his eyes glued on Ric, “sure, I will” he added and placed his forehead on the floor. “Please, forgive me,” he cried out. “Well, I am not the one that did it and even if I am the one, I am

Inside the Conover Club, Ric and two others were seen at a table. Ric sat quietly and observed the event. The Grahams had lavishly spent on the drinks and food there was more than enough to go round yet Ric was not bothered with eating anything."Will you just sit there and act like you don't want to have a taste of these luxury dishes?" Alessandro found Ric on the table where he sat and taunted him.Ric did not waste his time to look up at Alessandro, he was more concerned about the feedback from the assignment Melissa was working on."Come on, don't act all busy. We all know just how jobless you are since you can't secure a job be a of your status as Ex convict." Alessandro intentionally let out this information and just like he anticipated, the people seated on the table with Ric exchanged uncomfortable glances."Is he really an Ex convict?""The man seems to be ignoring him, he may be bluffing.""He didn't deny it, maybe it's true."The couple were not comfortable with the knowled

"What is happening here?" Camille had finally remembered he was to pick Ric at the entrance and had rushed over. Good thing he only met the end of things."Ask your guests." Frank shrugged before tossing the gun in his hand at Camille's feet."This not some shooting range, why did you bring a gun along?" Camille paled at the sight of the gun at his feet."I didn't, just borrowed it from one of them so like I said before 'Ask your guests.' Will you?" Frank lied.He never went anywhere fully armed with more than just a pistol even when he wore just a polo shirt and combat shorts.Frank wasn't exactly the careless type and he wasn't going to take chances with the young Master at all."Please no weapons allowed inside." Camille put his hands together and beckoned on them that was when he noticed the three wounded men."Oh shit!" His eyes widened in shock alarmed."Y'all already had a complete show down didn't you?" Camille looked to all of them and Frank smiled politely."I already told y

When Ric appeared at the gate of the Conover Club, he was quite mesmerized by the beauty of the infrastructure. He had expected it to look beautiful but the pictorial panoramic view he had envisaged, was nothing compared to what his eyes beheld."Excuse me Sir, please can I see your membership card?" One of the security guards interrupted his thoughts about the place."I'm sorry but I don't quite have that" Ric was naturally a polite person so it was nothing to him to respond kindly to a lowly security guard."I'm sorry Sir, but your card type is the determining factor for the entry access you are granted" the security man was not being rude since Ric had dressed up properly and looked like a rich man, however, he was only doing his job."That won't be any trouble, I'll just call my friend to come out" the Conover club was a place reserved for only the richest of richest. Some of these accesses, Johnson could give Ric to drive through preferential gates but Ric severally declined unwi

Melissa did not care to know if Aaliyah was romantically involved with the man she saw with her, rather, Melissa was more interested in emphasizing on how much of a loser Ric was and also to put a stain on Aaliyah's integrity subtly without getting her directly involved."What are you talking about?" Aaliyah asked uncomfortably. Aaliyah felt guilty because she had been spending a lot of time with Ormond and she felt attacked by Melissa's statement.Actually, Aaliyah had entered into the store and seen Ric, she had not wanted to create an awkward scenery of Ric running into Ormond with her, it was not as if Ormond was unaware of Aaliyah's engagement with Ric but Aaliyah just thought that it was better if they did not meet."Oh, I said nothing actually. I only stated the obvious. Look, I am not saying anything to offend you, the only thing is that you are about to make a very big mistake by subjecting yourself in marriage to such a loser." Melissa was intentional with her words, she int

When the lady heard what Melissa said about Ric, she was a bit Ashamed of what was being said. The lady was Aaliyah.She had been passing and had only been oppurtuned to hear what Melissa said and because the man in question was related to her as her Fiance she had paid better attention.She had observed Melissa closely from her distance and concluded that indeed she was Ric's Ex wife."He is still so useless." Melissa scoffed annoyed.Melissa had dropped the items she carried in her car before she recalled she had wanted to pick an extra item and she had to return to the store in a rush.It was on her way back inside the store that she had bumped into Aaliyah on her way out."Oh, please watch where you're going." Aaliyah said politely when someone bumped into her.Melissa was rather rude, despite just being humiliated, she could just never change. That was how she was."You should also keep your eyes open to step aside before someone crashes into you accidentally." Melissa snapped at

Melissa was bothered about how she was expected to pay such high bills that Ric himself could not afford to pay. Frank was going to further play his game but Ric gave his hand a gentle squeeze and stopped him."You see, I was not going to pay for any of these if you were not present. Frank here was going to do it." Ric stated factly."Yes, I know how to reward those who are loyal to me handsomely and how to..." Frank paused and smirked. Melissa had her heart in her mouth when Ric remained expressionless, she feared that he would ignore Damon and keep her on her knees for longer but she was wrong.Ric was not like that, he did not intentionally hurt people or their images for self gratification or cheap glory and moreover, Damon had a right over him since he also considered Damon as his older brother.When Frank noticed Ric gave no response, Frank was ready to prolong Melissa's suffering."Oh Mel it seems you would have to-""Let it be Frank," Ric held up a hand to frank and stopped

Melissa was puzzled but then again she thought to herself that Frank surely was in a disguise around Ric so Ric didn't know who he truly was.That was just how Melissa was, it was better for her to think that way than for her to admit to herself that Ric could have such a powerful friend that frightene

Damon had stood aside watching for a while until he could no longer contain it by standing in the corner so he spoke up.He was met with silence from Ric and also frank."Damn it Damon!" Frank cursed under his breath annoyed. If Damon had not showed up then Frank already had a full line up for Melissa to give her a taste of her own medicine but Damon's intervention was definitely a change to the fate destined for her by Frank.Frank knew that there was no way Ric was going to continue after seeing Damon.Damon could be said to be Ric's weak point after his mum since Damon was the only person Ric considered family."Ric?" Damon called out to him when he got no response but Frank answered instead."Oh Damon it's not what you think. Melissa here is just really sorry and repentant for all the things she had done to Ric in the past and thought to render an apology." Frank smiled but Damon wasn't buying it.Even if Damon had not seen much, he knew Melissa very well."Are you sure about what

Melissa's legs felt like jelly when the words hit her ear drums. She was expected to apologize to Ric and that too on her knees."Is there a problem Melissa?" Frank was going to surely see to the end of it all.Just as the drama was taking place, Damon came back.Melissa was already on her knees before Ric but her lips were heavy, she found it difficult to apologize to Ric.It would have been easier for Melissa to render the apology to a complete stranger than for her to apologise to Ric. Even if Ric looked clean, Melissa was not willing to accept that he was worth being treated more than a street begger.Yes! She thought that lowly of him."Say the words, I don't have all day to waste here." Ordinarily Ric would have stopped Melissa and ended all the drama but this once he chose to put her in her place."You! Don't even try to act high and mighty because I'm apologizing to you." She was quick to raise her voice and scold him but she had lost her voice ever since when it came renderin
