"Hey, Pauper! My girlfriend and I need to assuage our thirst, the sun is pretty much today. Come and have this five ten dollars and get us a cold americano from the school cafe, then you can use the remaining two dollars to enjoy your life" a voice uttered amid other students, motioning to Adrain to move closer."Has he launched an errand job in the school environment? If yes, I would also like to send him to get some snacks for me at the cafeteria" another added in a ridiculous tone while other students burst into laughter."Why won't he go when the two Dollars can save him from eating trash on the street" the first guy retorted.Adrain stood and couldn't mutter any statement. He faces humiliation in school every day, yet there is nothing he could do about it. He was on scholarship because of his high level of brilliance, yet he was finding it difficult to cope but what would he do? Absolute nothing! Since it's the best place to get an education and not paying a dime made it easier.
Adrain screamed which made Matilda jerk off immediately. She was surprised and confused at the same time, hoping it wasn't Adrain that screamed her name.Adrain was watching her with a disappointed expression which made Matilda somehow uneasy. Had she known Adrain would check on her, she would not get away with Tony's love confession, to the extent of kissing in public.She kept opening her mouth like three times and couldn't think of what to say."It's not what you think, Adrain. I was only trying to help here. I was helping Tony to remove some dust on his shirt" she fabricated smoothly.The anger inside Adrian increased immediately. He may be poor but doesn't have any eye problems. He was sure of what he saw."Are you for real? Just try to listen to yourself. You told me you are sick and I'm on my way to check on you, but you are here kissing another guy and still have the gut to start lying?" Adrain ranted, making his vein come out of his forehead."You need to trust me Adrain, I w
"Five hundred Billion dollars?" He was confused!" Could he be dreaming? Hell no!" He quickly rubbed his eye with the back of his palm. Probably the cries had affected his eyesight since it's been long since he cried.He stared around, noticing nobody was looking in his direction. He stared at the phone for the second time and it happened to be true."Could it be a mistake? Who would have made the mistake of sending such a huge amount of money to my account?" He questioned himself but could not give a response to his inquiries.After thinking for a while, he concluded by going to the police station to lodge a complaint cox If he guesses that luck was on his side and begins to spend the money, what will happen if the money is later traced to his account and he gets arrested for such an indecent act? He may not have money but won't do anything that will tarnish his image.He wanted to continue walking when his phone began to ring.He checked for the caller ID and it was an unknown numbe
After conversing with his grandmother in the sitting room, she told him to follow her upstairs. Granny led the way while he tailed behind. With her walking stick, she was still agile.Both climbed the staircase and another route after that. Finally, they arrived at the room. Granny opened the door, gesturing to him to follow her inside. Adrain was left dumbfounded by the beauty of the room."Don't let me this is my room" he uttered in disbelief, staring at the king-size bed that was placed at the center. The room was painted white, with a few touches of blue."Don't you like the color, I'll ask them to repaint it immediately. I chose this room for you since it's the biggest in the entire building" Granny responded calmly."Oh no! I love it! It's far bigger than the entire orphanage! This is so huge" he kept smiling and wouldn't stop admiring the room.Granny walked in another direction, but still inside the room, and pressed a button. The door opened slowly, revealing what looked lik
He stopped a taxi and went straight to the mansion. He was appearing to be fragile till he entered inside. His granny was stunned to see him that way. He left the house not for up to two hours and entered with an injury!"Adrain! What happened to you?" She questioned with worries noticeable on her face.Instead of him to retort, he began to climb the stairs to his room."Oh my goodness! I wouldn't have allowed you to leave If I knew you were heading to the place you will get yourself sounded. All these while that I've been watching you secretly, you didn't get wounded like this'' Granny exclaimed."It's nothing Grandma, stop worrying about me, I wouldn't have known a friend from a foe if I didn't go" he responded and entered his room.Granny quickly called her doctor and ordered him to come immediately. Then, she went upstairs to check on Adrian. After fifteen minutes, a young man that appeared to be in his early forties rushed inside. He was directed to the Adrain room, where he met
The game was scheduled to take place in an old museum that was facing financial crises and needed to auction off a few of its paintings. The highest bid for a chosen painting would be the winner while the person that couldn't afford the payment will be the loser. All to test the financial capacity, Adrian.Tony rushed back to the lecture room, he had gone to seek the school's permission for going out with the school bus."The driver is already waiting for us. So, we have to go guys" he implored his fellow students to follow him. Truly, Tony was also a son of a Billionaire and heir to a reputable company but his father doesn't support lavish spending."Adrain, it's not too late to back off. We all know you can't afford to visit a museum, talkless of participating in the auction. Don't you like how some respect was accorded to you for your decent dress today? Must you embarrass your ancestors? A fool like you doesn't know what the real game is about! Dumbass!" Rachel scolded him before
Adrain was shocked! The gaze on his face said it."Where could the card be?" He asked one In particular while still searching his wallet and trousers pocket."What happened young master, time is going and your painting has been packaged," the curator asked again. His mates were also glaring at him. Some have commenced their mockery laughs.At that point, Adrain knew something must be done to save his face from embarrassment."Can I have your account details? I'll like to transfer from my phone since I can't find my card. "He opted for another option since he had more than enough in his bank account."Sure" the curator responded, smiling.Adrain"s money transfer news was confirmed, which earned him some respect instantly from his fellow students. Some began to request for his friendship but he didn't waste anything to decline them all. After that, they left for school.Despite the screams and hails from the students, Adrain didn't bother to take a glimpse at the students. Instead, he r
Rachel headed towards her hostel while Adrain followed behind. The hostel was located at the edge of the school and it was built purposely for her."Are you the only one living here?" Adrain asked, feeling stunned that such a thing could be happening. It was known that all students were living in the school hostel while the richest ones were staying in the white building.Seeing another self-hostel built separately for one student amazed Adrain."Yes, as you can see, I'm the only one staying here" Rachel retorted nonchalantly. She didn't care about Adrain's status, as long as she was the one to train him."Wow! Incredible! Never knew something like this existed" Adrain was in awe."Your grandmother made it possible. She has the largest share in this school, which made all of her requests possible. She knew a day like this would be coming, that's why she made the preparations ahead" She explained and opened the door.The hostel was bigger than be hostel. It was a two-bedroom apartment
Kiara was pulled into one of the male restrooms while Rachel was also busy looking for her.Draco, on the other hand, also waited and couldn't see her again. He had to stand up and went to the restroom side, looking for her.After opening two doors, which were empty and others were locked, he went back to the bar.The abductor turned Kiara's back, making their faces staring directly to each other before removing his hand from her mouth."Adrian?" She Called with a faint tone and Adrain smiled.He has been trying, controlling himself from missing her but he couldn't cope anymore and since he was still in the city, he decided to pay her a surprise visit.Despite her disguise and fake mask, he was still able to recognize her."Is this you?Adrain?" Kiara asked again, still in shock.Adrain pulled her closer for a tight hug."You are doing well for yourself. I was scared when Tony informed me about using you for this revenge but I'm glad to see you doing well" He whispered to her.Kiara re
Rachel rushed to dress up and packed her hair into a rough ponytail. She still couldn't believe that she just spent a night with Harry under the influence of alcohol. She only came to appreciate him but has turned into something else."Jeez! How did it happen? I was even drunk to the extent that I couldn't remember how it happened!" She scolded herself as she made her way out of the room.She got to the living room and saw Harry preparing tea for her."Don't tell me that is for me because I wouldn't take it" she uttered while Harry smiled."I think you should have a sip because it's good for a hangover," Harry said.She was left with no other option than to drink the tea.After drinking, she was set to go.Harry walked towards her and placed his hand on her chin."Rachel, I nearly killed myself when you were in a coma, thinking that you ain't gonna make it. I nearly lost my sanity over your accident. I realize that my feelings for you ain't fake but genuine ones. Please, be my girlfri
"Ava, Ana,what are you girls doing there?" Ruth yelled at the girls."It's our brother. He is finally here for us. Wow! The moment that I've been anticipating is finally here" Ava rejoiced.Ruth was confused until she saw Peter dressed in disguise."He isn't your brother. He just looks like him. Now, go to the backyard and start playing" she chased them inside.Ava wanted to talk but Ruth cut her off and chased her inside.After that, she walked to Peter, who was still standing due to the shock that the twins could recognize him."Hello Peter" Ruth greeted."Unbelievable! I'm the only one that was left in darkness. I can't believe that you all recognized me while I had no idea about your existence, talkless of knowing you" Peter was in awe."It's normal. I don't expect you to know us since your father refused to add us to the family register. But I'm glad to see my daughters knowing you. They have always watched your video every day and love the songs. Anyways, why are you here?" Ruth
###Flashback###"How dare you harvest the organ of that little girl? Don't you know it's wickedness? Not only a random girl but my best friend's only child that I have been raising, you are cruel!" Peter's mother yelled at the director."Don't you get it? She has the same blood group as you! Her heart has been kept and it will be useful whenever we need a heart again! Were you deaf when the doctor said we should prepare in case the same thing repeat itself on our only son?" The chairman shouted back at her.At that time, Peter opened the door happily. It was his last day in highschool and he also got an admission to study his favorite course in college. He rushed inside to share the good news to his parents when he started hearing the argument.He calmly went to the living room and sat down on the sofa, hearing all the arguments."That's just it! We can start finding a donor from now and not killing the innocent girl. Whereas, if his condition is detected early, an artificial heart is
"Peter!" His manager yelled and entered. Peter Jerked away from his thoughts and stared at him."Why did you yell at me?" He asked."Why won't I yell when I've been calling you for a while but you are lost in thoughts? What happened? Did something happen during the date? Did you confess your feelings to her and she turned you down?" His manager bombarded him with questions."Why are you here? I think that's should come first" Peter asked, totally ignoring his questions."Your doctor called, asking if you would like to go for an artificial heart since there is no donor in sight but the chance is 50/50. What should I tell him?" He informed Peter."I'll think about it and give you the feedback!" Peter answered, pushing him out of the room and smashing the door to his face, preventing being asked another question.★★★★Adrain had been feeling guilty and wanted to open up to Ruth but didn't know where to start.When Cassie was busy attending to these customers, he summoned some courage and
Two days later, Kiara woke up to see a message from Peter. He was asking for a date with her. Kiara firstly discarded the message but on a second thought, she recalled that he was Raymond's son and she was curious to know what he was thinking about his father. Maybe he was in support of whatever he was doing or not.She stood up and went to the living room, where Kimberly and granny were watching a movie."Hey Ladies!" She greeted and smiled broadly at them.They also retorted the greetings and asked about the baby."I am going on a date this afternoon with Peter. Please, don't say no" she begged."Peter? Isn't that dangerous? Who knows, he might be working for his father!" Kimberly uttered."Mom, I've been friends with Peter for a while and I've been going on dates with him, though not an official date. I just informed you today, so that you would know my purpose of leaving the house since it is a public holiday" Kiara explained."What about you going with bodyguards? I don't wanna
Kiara's car drove to the Car's garage and her driver parked the car. She stepped down from the car with Irene by her side. Both were dressed in spot wears and Kiara belly has started protudelling. At least, someone would know that she is pregnant."The last time that I saw him was good. He treated us well and gave us VIP treatment at his concert. I wish to see him again and appreciate him" Irene uttered."We met up after the concert. We only met them to discuss random things and we also drank some wine" Kiara responded."Really? Oh, you should have called me to tag along. I would love to talk while drinking wine with my favorite artist" Irene declared happily."You were too busy at that time, so I couldn't call," Kiara answered.When they were about to enter the gym house, Irene noticed two or her friends, who were also her classmates. They weren't best of friends but at least, they did greet each other.The Trios exchanged pleasantries and also greeted Kiara."She is pretty" Irene he
The following morning, Kiara was still sleeping when Kimberly arrived. She rushed into Kiara's room."My daughter!" She called in anxiety.Kiara and her baby were her only hope and she wouldn't use them as a joke."Mom, is that you or am I hallucinating?" Kiara asked, still in her sleepy State."It's me. I took the latest flight to come back home, because of you. I didn't bother waiting for the chopper to come and pick me" Kimberly answered and sat beside her.A mere look at Kiara, she knew that she was seriously hurt.Kimberly moved closer to hug her. "It's okay to cry. Hiding your pain wouldn't only hurt you but will also hurt your child. I am giving you my shoulder from crying on" Kimberly uttered and Kiara bursted into tears, explaining all that she heard regarding her mother's death to Kimberly.While on it, the door opened, revealing Tony's father."I'm back to apologize again for what happened then" he said."It's not your fault. You tried your best to secure a good medical tr
Kiara went back to her room. She picked her handbag and cleaned the tears that were threatening to fall from her face."See you guys later" she uttered and went out."Don't tell me that you are going to drive by yourself!" Tony yelled and ran after her."There is nothing wrong with me, okay? I can drive!" She answered and was about to open the car door when Tony blocked her."I can't allow you to drive this afternoon. Let me drive you home, if you think going home will console you" He suggested.Instead of Kiara to allow him, she annoyingly closed the door and left to take a cab home.On reaching home, she met granny in the sitting room.Thinking about her, granny was the one feeling the highest pain. She lost her son and grandson to the cruel enemy and she was still trying to be strong.She dropped her bag on the floor and ran to hug her.She wasn't aware that she had bursted into tears, until she felt granny reciprocating her hug and patting her back."Don't try to hide the tears. I
