Tyler Welensky's Rise To Power

Chapter 0005

Bella saw Tyler walking towards the car, it was obvious that he left the house in anger and disappointment. He walked with energy, swung his hands powerfully and opened the car door. “You look furious.” Bella said immediately Tyler took a seat beside her.

“Yeah I'm furious, those arrogant people know nothing else but just to humiliate someone and treat ‘em like trash.”

“What did they do to you?”

“Nothing they haven't done before.”

“And you let it all slide? Tyler, let's go back in there and I could make them all bow to you, they would go on their knees!”

Tyler shook his head in disagreement. “Not now Bella, I don't wanna go back in there. But one day, I'm gonna make them go on their knees for me, and that day is close. But not today.”

Bella looked at Tyler, she could feel the hurt in his heart, it reflected in his eyes and his breath smelt of pain.

“Let's get outta of this goddamn place!” Tyler said and she brought the car’s engine to life then zoomed off.

Bella took Tyler to one of the most luxurious apartments around, he couldn't help but praise the beauty of the place almost every second.

“This is some lovely place, for real.”

“I know right. That's why I chose it for you.” Bella said smiling.

“For me? What’ you mean? ‘you serious right now?”

“Yeah Tyler, you can live here for a while.”

There was shock on Tyler's face. He'd been a delivery guy if not doing his janitorial work and he used to deliver expensive packages to the rich people who lived in that apartment, he never expected to become an occupant of such a nice place. “You gotta be kidding me.” Tyler said in his mind.

Bella could see him just looking around without saying a word and she wondered “You're quiet, you like the place?”

“Sure I do. It's truly amazing.”

“Tell you what, this is nothing compared to the other properties that your family owns. In fact, this is the worst property owned by your family.”

“Are you kidding me right now?”

“Have I ever done that? I'm serious Tyler. And better places will be arranged for you soon, just stay here for a while.”

“For a while? I can stay here forever! Who's complaining?” Tyler joked, he could finally feel drops of happiness down his heart and he managed to find his sense of humor.

“Ha ha you wouldn't say same when you see everything that belongs to your family. It's heaven on earth.”

Tyler was happy but wondered what's been happening in his family since he left. He didn't know how big the family business had grown but with everything he'd seen and heard so far, he could tell the business grew massively.

“Here are the keys to your new house Mr Tyler.” Bella put a bunch of keys in his hand and they opened the door.

Bella put some papers in Tyler's hand “What are these?” He asked

“Inheritance papers for you. Who else would inherit all the luxury and properties of your father if not you, the son?”

Flames of confidence rose within Tyler, he could feel it, his life was about to change completely.

Ding! Dong! Tyler heard the door alarm ring, who could wake him up from such a comfortable bed on his first morning in a luxurious place like this? He wondered. He stood up, stretched himself and went straight for the door.

“Good morning Tyler.” Bella’s smile was brighter than the early morning sun. “Bella, I knew it could only be you.”

“How did you feel after spending a night on such a big bed? Comfortable huh?” She hoped she didn't sound like everyone else who made fun of him. But for some reason, he felt embarrassed.

“I need to take you somewhere” Bella said “and you need to wear this.” She handed him a neatly packaged cloth.

“What's this?” Tyler asked.

“A suite. You should try it on.”

Tyler rushed back to the bedroom and after a few minutes, he returned looking completely different, dressed in the black suit and his thick black hair neatly brushed backwards, a gold color watch on his left wrist and shiny black shoes to complete the dressing which was more of a transformation.

“Wow! Just wow!” Bella couldn't help but exclaim. “You look completely different.” She added.

“Say it in one word.”

“Official! Let's go.”

Bella and Tyler enjoyed the cool music in the car as it pulled up in front of a very beautiful hotel, grand style “Oh wow!” Tyler said as he saw the bustling energy of reporters swarming around them like bees to honey. “Hey, make way! Shift back!” The security guard said as he cleared a path guiding Tyler and Bella through the crowd.

“This is where you wanted to bring me?” Tyler asked, trying to hide his face from a stranger's camera.

“Yeah.”

“Why are we here?”

“Don't worry, you'll soon find out.”

Just when they were about to open the door, Tyler saw a familiar figure amidst the swirling sea of journalists. “What?” He didn't expect that. Their eyes locked for a fleeting moment as they shared a silent recognition in the midst of all voices and flashing cameras. Tyler was about to make a move before Bella interrupted “We need to go in fast!”
