It took just five minutes before he got to the bar where Isabella said she was.Elijah dashed out of the car without even parking properly. His head was a big mess right now and he had no control of himself.He ran into the bar and navigated among the people inside the bar but couldn't find a glimpse of Isabella anywhere.He began to ask people of Isabella by showing them her picture but no one knew her or where she was.Elijah dipped his hand into his hair and sighed in frustration. He decided to check all the nook and cranny of the bar, so he left the bar and went to the backyard. Just when he was getting close to the backyard, he began to hear Isabella faint voice and the voices of some men. “ Hey pretty girl, take off your dress let's have a good time together” one of the men said and began to take off Isabella's clothes but she kept struggling with them.“ No! You're not my Mr handsome so go away!” Isabella struggled weakly with them.“ Stay out!” The second man said and slapped
Elijah took Isabella to his villa. He took her to the guest room and lay her on the bed before covering her with the duvet.“ Such a hard life you're living” he shook his head before leaving the room.Elijah returned to his room and had a good night shower before heading to bed. *****Next morning, the aroma of food coming from downstairs woke Elijah who was still asleep.Since Bishop Leo bought him the villa, he has never used the kitchen or the utensils in it, so how come the aroma of food is penetrating his nose?Elijah rolled from one end of the bed to another but was forced to stand up when the aroma became really stronger.He took his bath and wore a sweat pants hoodie before stepping out of his room.“ Who is cooking in my house? Is it you Hank? I never know you're a good chef” Elijah smiled as he stretched his body.“ Do I look like someone who knows how to cook?” Hank was seated on the dining chair waiting for the meal to be served.“ Then who is cooking in my house? A ghost
“If I were you Damien, I would quickly stand up from that seat before you end up in prison. I won't consider the fact that you're my brother and send you to jail” Elijah gritted as he moved closer to Damien who still had his smirk on.“ Why won't you believe? You knew that this Empire belongs to me that was why you didn't ask for Grandpa’s will after he died” Damien said and murmurs flew all around.“ Wow! I guess you must be really desperate to have this Empire to yourself so as to squander the funds right?” Elijah said and Damien frowned and stood up from the seat.“ What do you know?” Damien muttered with anger and hatred in his eyes for Elijah.“ You think since I have lost my memories, I won't find out how you squander the funds in West construction three years back” Elijah smirked and murmurs and whispers increased.“! All that doesn't mean now, since I am the new chairman” Damien smiled and went back to his seat.“ Who appointed you as the chairman? Them?” Elijah asked, pointin
“ Welcome back Mr Kim, you have some guests in your office” the receptionist from the Law firm said cluelessly.She never knew that Elijah and Hank already left when she went to urinate inside the bathroom.“ Oh okay” Mr Kim flashed her a smile and left for his office, on getting there, he met no one which made him frown.“ Didn't she say that there's some guest waiting for me? So where are they?” Mr Kim asked no one as he dropped his bag on the table and was about to meet the receptionist to ask her where the guests were but his phone rang and he took it out of his pocket before picking it up.“ Hello Mr Damien, what may I do for you?” Mr Kim asked.“ Thank you for your help, if not for you, I wouldn't have become the chairman of the West Empire.” Damien was sad and Mr Kim smiled.“ About my daughter's surgery payment, when will you pay it?” Mr Kim asked excitedly but the next word from Damien made his smile drop from his face.“ I said I will pay it but I didn't promise, did I? So c
As Hank drove on the lonely road with Lawyer Kim in front of him, he noticed some cars following closely behind him.“ Shit, I guess Elijah has disclosed the surprise to them and they are after us” Hank smiled and added more speed and they drove so fast.“ Are they Damien's men? Are they after me?” Lawyer Kim asked fearfully.“ If you knew that Damien would be after you, why didn't you inform us? It's been a week since Damien became the chairman of West Empire, yet you are silent and now that the surprise is going so well, they are after your life” Hank muttered and threw a gum inside his mouth.“ Let's have some fun!” He shouted and drove speedily on the lonely road that the two cars following behind him couldn't match up with them.“ Hey boss, we can't match up with them, so it's time to double cross them” one of the men inside the car which was chasing Hank and Lawyer Kim, texted his boss.“ Sure, let the game begin” the boss texted back and immediately ordered for his boy who is d
Damien sat on the chair like a statue, it was as if his ass was gummed on the chair. He was so shocked that he just couldn't form a word out of his mouth despite how he struggled to speak.“ Police!” Elijah called and troupes of policemen rushed into the board room and everyone's eyes widened in shock.They never thought Elijah would take it too far by calling the policemen, but it turns out Damien was bound to go to prison for the attempted murder of Lawyer Kim.The leader of the policemen took his handcuff and moved closer to Damien who was looking so shocked like he was struck with thunderbolt.“ You're under arrest for the attempted murder of Lawyer Kim. You have the right to remain silent because whatever you say or do will be used against you in the court of law” the policeman took Damien's hands and handcuffed it before dragging him away even in his daze state. As the policemen took Damien with them in handcuffs, they came across his mother Sarah and Rachel.“ Where are you t
NEXT DAYVery early the following morning, Bishop Leo could be seen walking faster towards a ship bound for Hawaii, clutching his bag filled with stolen money from the West Empire and another bag packed with his belongings.He knew that once he gets caught, I would be over for him because once Elijah gets hold of him, he would make sure he spends the rest of his days in jail.“ That bastard,” Bishop Leo bit his fingers as he walked hastily to the port.The ship was to depart in thirty minutes so he was happy that before Elijah would find out that he ran away, the ship would have already left for Hawaii then.“ It will be fun spending my money in Hawaii” Bishop Leo smiled as his mind raced in excitement with the thought of starting anew under the Hawaiian sun, and never coming back to Georgia ever again.“ You won't be able to find me Elijah” Bishop said as he got to the front of the ship. He just couldn't wait for the ship to take off already. Little did Bishop Leo know that E
After making the call, Elijah rushed to the hospital with Hank to see Isabella.One getting to the hospital, the surgery was already done and the bullet was taken out of her stomach.The doctor in charge of the surgery came out of the theatre, Elijah was the first to rush to him.“ Doctor, how is she?” he asked, trying to compose himself.“ She's out of danger. Thank goodness the bullet didn't hit any bones” the doctor said and Elijah exhaled with his eyes closed.It felt as if a burden had just been taken out of him.“ But can we see her?” Hank chipped in and the doctor nodded before walking away. Elijah was the first to enter the ward. There, he met Isabella sleeping soundly and he exhaled.“ Thank goodness nothing bad happened to her.” Elijah said and sat on the sofa inside the ward, his eyes fixated on Isabella.“ What would happen to Bishop Leo?” Hank asked and Elijah smirked.“ What will happen to him? Of course he would confess who his accomplice is and go to jail” Elijah sai
