The little girl revealed herself.
:[Name= Abigael Kenter]:
:[Titles= Adopted daughter of the High Matron- Little Lady of the Kenter Empire]:
:[Net worth= Not calculated- Aged 4]:
:[Potential= Extremely High]:
The young girl greeted Miles with smiles and Miles got to realize that his mother was so lonely for a child that she had adopted one. That saddened him so much.
The little munchkin told Miles her name even though his system had.
"You are going to school?" He asked, noticing she had a beautiful school bag with her. The girl nodded happily.
Miles pondered a little and offered that he will take her to school himself. And the girl was so happy, she hopped into Miles's arms as he lifted her off the floor and walked out of the room.
Miles ordered Bertram to give him the most expensive car in the mansion and Bertram obediently acted.
The black Bugatti sports car was parked in front of the mansion and Miles walked down the steps with Abigael carried on one arm. Miles tried to act like he wasn't excited! His heart was beaming with joy as he walked down the steps. He couldn't believe he was going to drive an expensive car.
He carefully put Abigael in the front passenger seat and buckled her into her seatbelt before he moved to the driver's seat.
Miles stared at the steering wheel and the opulent interior of the Buggati. He had spent so many years repairing vehicles that he never expected he would own one someday and a really expensive car for that matter.
:[La Voiture Noire= Black Colour, 1500horsepower]:
:[Brand= Bugatti]:
:[Price= $20,000,000]:
Miles exhaled and took in the fresh new leather smell as he turned on the engine and drove out of the mansion. The GPS helped him navigate his way out of the huge assets owned by the Kenters and into the main city.
He spoke with the little adorable girl as he drove. Miles felt the urge to look after the girl like his blood sister and even like a daughter.
He noticed people were staring at the car as he drove. It wasn't their fault, this must be the only model ever in town and the magnificent 'K' inscribed on the car plate even brought more stares.
Miles took the car to the Veruskeep district which was the most exquisite districts ever to be known.
The parking lot was quite far away from the main vicinity and Miles carefully parked the car. He got out and also carried Abigael out of the car.
The security men in the parking lot were shocked to see such a roughly dressed man to emerge from a very expensive car and hold an adorable young little girl in his arms that didn't look like his daughter.
They found Miles suspicious, but also let him be as he walked to the main vicinity, glaring around the district which his empire must surely own a share.
:[Name= Veruskeep district]:
:[Networth= $70.5 billion dollars]:
:[Shares= Kenter 90% — Ashton 6% — Roger 3% — Others 1%]:
Miles couldn't believe it. He actually owned 90% of this district. He couldn't help but smile warmly as he lowered Abigael to the ground and held her by the hand as they approached the shopping mall.
He walked with confidence now he knew he was extremely rich, after all, he literally owned this place. The cars here were worth not mentioning to him or comparable to his.
The security guard that was stationed at the entrance saw Miles walking towards the door and he frowned. From the looks of it, he could see that Miles was poor and would not be able to afford not even a single item in the mall.
Miles greeted the security guard happily once he approached. The guard skimmed him and Abigael before sighing and just doing his work. He scanned Miles more than the number of times needed to be sure if he wasn't here to rob.
Miles smiled again at the man and entered the shopping mall with his little sister. Wow!
The inside of the mall exceeded Miles's expectations! It was a grandeur, a magnificent sight! His eyes darted to the Versace clothing store, glimmering with golden lights.
Miles walked into the store, admiring it with his little sister when a saleslady rushed to him. "Good morning, sir. How may I help you?" She offered.
"I want to buy some really good clothes," Miles said and pondered. "And a phone too."
He looked at Abigael and she looked at him too. "Would you like anything?" He asked the little girl and she quickly pointed at a very large, red teddy bear positioned at another end of the mall.
Miles smiled and also added that to the list.
"Okay, sir," the woman replied nervously, quickly noticing Miles dressing. "Will that be casual clothes?"
"Yes. And some really fitting suits as well. Black is the colour," he said. Miles knew how Masters of Empires dress. They do not dress flashy with glittering clothes, rather simple plain attire was the tradition.
The saleslady nodded and led Miles to the array of causal clothes first, letting him choose the ones that he wanted while she offered to get him the most efficient and expensive phone like he ordered.
Miles momentarily let go of Abigael's hand while he shuffled his hands through the clothes and then through the suits. His system didn't fail to display which one had more value and which would fit him better to exude authority.
While he was skimming through, he suddenly heard commotion in the mall and the shouts of people, Abigael's voice was one of them.
Miles quickly rushed out of the clothing store to take a look at what was going on.
There at the end of the mall where the big teddy bear was positioned, Abigael was crying because another child was about to be given it by his parents. And to Miles's surprise, these two people that he termed the parents of this child was none other than Derek Ashton and his ex-wife, Layla Robson.
It was 10'oclock at night at the repair workshop in the 24-hour service station. The sound of clanking metal filled the air as the mechanics were finishing off some works for the day—two mechanics lay on creepers underneath some vehicles, focused on their work as closing hour drew nigh.A few others were discussing and cracking jokes like teenagers when they were actually grown up men. But one of them was at a corner, his mobile phone to his ear, hoping to get a response from who he was calling. This man was Miles Robson and he was trying to privatize his call away from his jeering colleagues. After a while and there was no response from the other end, Miles lowered the phone with a saddened face and tucked it into his overall pockets. His work mates had eager expressions, beckoning him to gist them on his conversation. But the look on Miles face could tell them that things wasn't going well.But Miles wasn't ready to give up. Today was the 2nd year anniversary of his marriage and h
As their truck approached the vehicle, Miles could see its red sleek color shimmering under the moonlight and he was certain whoever had his this Rolls-Royce was someone of a high caliber.Their truck halted just behind the car and his colleagues pilled out, picking up their working tools and equipments. However, as usual, Miles's head mechanic sent him to greet the owner of the car. This was because Miles had a high charisma and they used this to their advantage in getting more money from their customers.Miles who was beaming with joy, buttoned all buttons of his overall and adjusted himself as he approached the window of the driver's seat. He bent down formally with a friendly approach and peered into the front seat of the vehicle through the window that was lowered.Miles couldn't believe his eyes!There in the front seat sat a man devouring the lips of a woman in the passenger seat across him. And that woman was no other person than his wife, Layla! He could easily recognize her
Miles's Chief mechanic and the crew didn't hesitate to get to work and repair the quick issue with the car, leaving Miles to battle his problems."Layla, today is our 2nd year anniversary. And you're doing this to me?" Miles pleaded stepping forward to touch Layla's hand.Layla only drew away from Miles like he carried a virus. "2nd year what?!" Miles could hear ask irritatedly.Miles couldn't believe his wife didn't remember that two years ago today was when they became man and woman. He looked down at her fingers and noticed she didn't have her wedding ring on, she never did. It just occurred to Miles that Layla had already placed their marriage on the back burner and she was now throwing it at his face, expecting him to accept it.Miles put his hands into his overall and pulled out the $40 he had planned to buy a cake and a necklace with for what was meant to be their special night. "I was going to buy you a cake and a beautiful necklace, Layla," he said, displaying the $20 bills.
Miles was taken to the hospital by the police and his work colleagues. There he was told that his legs were crushed and it will be impossible for him to walk again.Miles weeped endlessly as he lay on the hospital bed, his mind racing with thoughts. The day that was supposed to be a blissful 2nd year anniversary for him turned out to be the day he got crippled. Miles thought about the hospital bills that he would never be able to pay off and the money he owed his best friend too. When Miles thought things couldn't get worse, the door to his hospital room he was in opened.To his surprise, his visitors were his wife and mother-in-law."Layla?" Miles could only whisper her name as he pushed himself to sit up.Layla didn't reply him, her face and that of her mother's were stern and unfriendly. Miles frowned when Elsa gave him a disgusted look and his frown even deepened when he noticed his sister-in-law, Clara coming into the room with his bags and belongings."Layla? I don't understand
Only a few minutes after the strange call, the door to his hospital room flung open. Miles looked at the door to see a group of men dressed in red suits and dark glasses pile into the room. Their faces were stark and serious as they alligned themselves to give way for a much older man in black suit. Miles's heart began to race as the troop of men filled the room with their domineering stature. He wanted to move away from them but his legs couldn't move, all he could do was stare.Miles thought that this was his end and Derek Ashton had sent his men to punish and kill him for fighting with the heir of the most reputable company in town. Miles could see their black pistols perfectly sheathed under the tailored suits.Miles expected the worse as the men moved their body, but instead, each of them dropped down to one knee in unison.Miles's eyes widened in surprise. What was happening? He had asked himself."Young Lord! The High Matron awaits your return," their voices spoke, reverberat
Miles was carefully loaded out of the car and into his wheelchair that he started to feel guilty of giving these men the trouble of carrying him. But to Miles endless surprise, the men carried him like it was an honor to do so before placing him in the wheelchair.Miles looked up at the towering flight of stairs that led up to the doors of the mansion. Miles couldn't believe he was in a place like this! He had to bend his neck over the headrest of the wheelchair to be able to see the roof of the mansion. He even glared around the compound that was large enough to contain six more similar buildings. There were more men in black suits while some in white suits, all wearing shades despite it was night time and positioned at different places of the manor. There were series of cars! Not only those that escorted him, but there were more cars. Miles noticed the mansion was a mixture of historic construction and modern upgrade. Even the wheelchair he was provided made a humming sound and s
The woman immediately cupped her mouth and burst into soft tears as she came close to Miles. Miles couldn't understand what was happening. He was taken to where he had no idea of and now, a woman old enough to be his mother was sobbing before him. The woman knelt down before Miles and places her hands on his cheek, slowly cuddling them. "It is really you! My son!" She proclaimed with tears in her eyes.Son? Her son? Miles couldn't phantom the absurdity he was hearing. He was an orphan and never grew with parents to the extent that he thought all orphans appeared on Earth without parents. But by looking into the woman's teary eyes as she caressed his face, Miles felt a deep sense of loss and bonding. "Mother?" He only whispered.The old woman with white hair nodded her head as she kept touching Miles all over his body. She held his hands, showing no regards for his dirty overall he was still wearing. Miles felt warmth in his heart as the woman embraced him. "Who did this to you?!" S
Miles could only sit in the wheelchair as his mother ordered for everyone to walk with her.They left the majestic loungy office and before Miles knew it while he was busy admiring the heavenly place, he found himself going underground with his mother, Bertram and a few bouncers. "I want to make sure that the Kenter empire will rise to the top once again and remain there forever," Miles's mother spoke as they were being lifted down by an in-built escalator that went underground. "I'm glad we found you, son. Only God knows what would've happen to our empire in the coming years."Miles looked up at his mother and could see tears leaving her eyes again. "But, mother. You are the High Matron.""Yes, i am. But with my fatal health, i don't think i can continue, Miles."What?! Fatal health?! "Don't say that, mother. You are very healthy!"His mother only gave a slight chuckle as Miles's concern brought joy to her heart. "After my coma, I have never been the same. I have tried my best to ru
