The unexpected rise of Ric Maximilanno Chapter 71
“We are running late already,” one of Ric’s friends, Damon said. They were all in a large room where clothes were scattered around. “Why are you hastening us?” Another of his friends, Gordon reprimanded as he changed his sleeping position on the couch. “There is no need for all the fuss. We will just pick some designs of suits, pay and leave,” Ric shot from the bathroom. Damon groaned, trying to fix his pants. “It is not that simple, idiot! Get up, sleepy head.” He smacked Gordon’s butt. “Stop it. I am straight!” Gordon turned again. He barely had any sleep last night, and now that he wanted to get some sleep, his friends are disturbing him. Ric came out of the bathroom in a towel. “You are not obsessed, are you? It is just a wedding, and the date is not even that close yet.” He rolled his eyes at Damon’s fuss over the suits picks. “The earlier the better, man. It’s almost 2pm already,” Damon patted Ric’s shoulder while he put on the straps of his wristwatch. Gordon final

“You are the manager of this place and you behave like this?” Damon asked. The manager adjusted his standing position. “Excuse me, how did I behave exactly? I only stated the popular fact that this boutique doesn’t entertain people like him here, especially not people dressed like this.” “How are we dressed? We only wore normal outfits. How is that a problem related to what we want to buy here?” Gordon chimed in too. It was really getting annoying for them. It was already enough that Alessandro had gotten his way with taunting them about their financial capability, but does the manager have to do worse? Alessandro suddenly laughed. “Should we bring out a weighing machine to see how much your outfit cost? I can bet with you that none of those complete outfits are up to five thousand dollars.” He mocked. “My complete outfit cost three thousand dollars all put together. What do you mean?” Gordon said proudly as he twirled for them in a funny way. Alessandro and the manager lau

“I’m glad you could see that they aren’t worth buying goods from you,” Alessandro told the manager. The manager smiled. “Of course. Not everyone can afford to buy from us. They can’t be as exclusive as you are, Mr. Alessandro.” They shook hands once again. “Have they been here before though?” Alessandro asked, referring to Ric and his friends who had just left the store. The manager quickly shook his head, “Them? No, not at all. This is the first time I have seen them here, and I guarantee that it will be the last,” he said. Alessandro smiled viciously. “That is great,” he muttered. He had always wanted to show Ric that he was above him in every way, and that was what he had just proven now. The manager suddenly jerked as he searched his pocket for his ringing phone. Who was calling him so hurriedly this way? “I thought my line was placed on voicemail!” He shouted at the secretary from where he was, even though he knew she wouldn’t be able to hear him if her mic was off.

“Please, sir. I beseech you to return with me to the store.” the manager said in a pleading tone, almost going on his knees while Ric and his friends stared at him. Didn't he just send them out of the store just now? Why is he back, wailing for them to return to the store? Ric’s glance returned to the cup of coffee before him, he sipped and tapped his fingers on the table gently, ignoring the man before him. When the man sensed Ric’s ignorance, he fell to his knees, crawling to Ric side. He grabbed Ric by his feet and cried. “Master I'm sorry for being stupid earlier. I was drunk and mistakingly chased you out of the store when I wasn’t supposed to do that.” Ric raised his brow and pursed his lips into a thin line before saying. “Please let go of my legs.” The manager shook his head. “No sir, unless you follow me back to the store.” “I don't want to,” Ric replied to him. “Please forgive me, Sir. My family's survival depends on me.” he sobbed. “My daughter is sick, my father has

“Hmm…” the designer breathed in heavily and looked at the manager. “Chase him out.” “He wouldn't dare!” Alessandro said. The manager seeing that he was caught in between the two young men decided to use his senses. He can't annoy Alessandro as he is from a wealthy family and his father might withdraw his membership card, on the other hand, the designer if provoked might not want to interact with their store. He might even convinced other designers not to partner with the stores so he cleared his throat. “Sir, you're our special client and so is him. If I chase him out I might lose my job. Please try to understand me and not put me in a tightened situation.” The designer became quiet as he took his phone and scribbled on it before dropping it back in his pocket. Silence engulfed the air except for the small muttering that emanated from the designer as he conversed with Ric. Not long after a new man walked in and stopped in the middle of the store introducing himself.

Alex walked out of the exclusive shop angry and embarrassed. How could this happen? Why was Ric given a preferential treatment over him? For all he knows, Ric was nothing but a poor church rat, where did he get the money to be able to afford the clothes sold at the store? His entire face was red with fury and his fists were clenched as he blew off steams from his ears. "Until you pay the outstanding balance you owe, you're not going to be allowed into the building, Mr. Alex." The words of the new manager who had walked in that moment rang continuously in his head. "What the heck was going on?" He asked confused and walked over to his car parked outside the building. He pulled the door open and slid into the driver's seat. Alex wanted to shout, he had just gotten a premium firsthand embarrassment but he could do nothing. He had to keep his cool and just leave the place. He threw an angry gaze toward the building he'd just vacated and cursed under his breath. He should be the

Ric was well aware of the news of some sketchy people who were currently searching for him. He had gotten the information from a trusted source and he had been warned about being careful and staying hidden. This was the same reason he decided to lay low at the moment. His life could be in danger and he didn't clearly want to take any risk. Here he was seated in his living room with his gaze fixed on his phone when he heard a car horn right in front of his building. Ric wasn't expecting any visitor and he was left with no choice but to conclude that no matter how much he decided to ward off any trouble for himself by staying back in his home, there was still one coming to him. And, it was in the form of two people he wasn't ready to see anytime soon. "You have a visitor Mr. Ric." The servant had said, informing him of Alex's arrival together with his wife. What in the world were they here for? He thought as he instructed the servant to get them to come in. Few minutes later, Ric sa

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
