HUDON GILBERT

CHAPTER 5: HUDSON GILBERT

After Giovanni left Florence, she huffed, trying to calm her breath, then, pick up her bag and left. On her way out of the correctional center, she bumped into a man due to how she was fuming and was eager to go home. She wanted to raise her voice on the person when her eyes suddenly widen on seeing who it is.

" There’s no way I’m dreaming, right? " She blurted out without thinking and the guy raised a brow at her.

" Are you Addams Golden? " He looked around and replied; " Yeah, I am. Do I not look like him? " He asked, helping her with her bag. A wide smile appeared on her lips and she bow a little.

" I’m sorry for bumping into you. " She apologized, tucking her hair behind her ear. Addams nodded and asked; " What’s your name? " Florence thought she was hearing things and asked; " Huh? "

" Your name, what’s your na…?" He didn’t allow him to complete his question before she quickly replied; " It’s Florence, Florence Gilbert! " Her smile radiating elegantly. If Addams didn’t know her, he’d have thought he met the most innocent soul on Earth and to ruin the situation, Addams asked; " Oh! You’re the girl whose husband was accused of embezzlement and other illegal acts? " Florence gulped nothing down her throat as she cursed Giovanni inwardly.

" Yeah… the fact that he’s the poorest son-in-law in the whole of Accolade Hills… I’ve lived with him all my life and didn’t notice anything until he suddenly came home one night with a million-dollar cash… I was stunned that I couldn’t believe what I was seeing and the next day, he left home earlier than before. So, since then, I started noticing him. " Florence elaborated, sounding so believable.

" Woah! Women!!! " He mumbled and exhaled.

" If you don’t mind, can we exchange business cards, so, we can meet up frequently. " Florence added and he had to took a long stare at her before dipping his hand into his inner jacket and brought out his business card. He handed it over to her and she bit her lower lip, seductively as she gave out hers too.

Without waiting any longer, he walked away and Florence couldn’t help but admire his angelic feature till he was out of sight. She screamed loudly in her head as she entered her car, beaming with smiles all over. She can’t wait to flaunt this card in front of her friends. She’s already imagining her grandmother’s expression in her head.

Addams entered the VVIP unit and exhaled, shutting the door behind him. He met the gaze of his father and brother staring intently at him and he looked back, with an awkward snicker before he finally walk up to where they are both sitting.

" He’s Addams Golden, he’s some few month older than you, so, he’s your elder brother. " Mr. Golden proclaimed and Addams faced Giovanni who’s silent and not making attempt to do anything. Mr. Golden nudge Giovanni to say something but he didn’t so, an idea pop into Addams head as he proclaimed;

" I saw Florence out and exchange cards with her, where do you want to start avenging your vengeance? " Giovanni cleared his throat and declared; " I’m Giovanni Smith! " Addams chuckled with a nod and he stretch his hand out for a shake which Giovanni took.

" That doesn’t mean I trust you though! " Giovanni affirmed and Addams rub the bridge of his nose before bringing out Florence business card.

" My vengeance should be starting by now if only it’s like in the series but I’ll have to heal up and make sure to be right on track before plotting any plan but for now, we have something huger to deal with. " A smirk appeared on Giovanni’s lips on saying that and he snickered coldly on thinking about it.

" In case you don’t know, I’ll love for you to still be in here for the time you’ll be using in recovering. Addams will be taking acre of things for you and these stand-men will be here for your availability. Here’s your personal black card…" Mr. Golden stated, handling him a square-shaped box and he opened it to meet his black card there. Behind it is boldly written GOLDEN HEIR

" What does this indicate? " He asked, showing the GOLDEN HEIR to his father and Addams replied in Mr. Golden stead; " It indicates as a pass… wherever you go or are and you bought something, if you show them the name, you’ll not be charged. Not only that, you can also show-off your power with it since it’s the only existing designated black card of the Golden that’s existing. " Giovanni’s jaw dropped and he stood slowly from his seat.

So… what they mean now is that what he’s holding isn’t just a black card but a powerful authority indication. Is he dreaming or what? Yeah! He’d say that he’s not understanding a thing in what’s going on but this? At first, it was the heir thing and now, he’s holding a limited designated black card?

" How sure am I that this is not a dream? " He asked and Mr. Golden pressed his finger on the band-aid on him. He shrieked up at the pain and glared at him.

" You were asking how sure you are that you’re not dreaming…" He defended and Giovanni looked away. A wide smile appeared on his lips and he start imagining the look that’ll be on his wife’s face after finding out who he really is. The stupid old woman, his beloved sons and his gullible mother-in-law.

" I’ll make y’all pay for all you did to me… just hold up and watch how I ruin your life from the depth. " A sinister smile settled on his lips and Sam ran in, with heavy breath.

" There’s a man outside who insists on seeing young master! " He managed to utter it out amidst his heavy breath and Giovanni asked; " Did he mention name? "

" Giovanni!!! " Giovanni shook and the stand-men immediately went to block the entrance. Giovanni who was wondering who it might be rushed to the entrance and his eyes widen on seeing Hudson…

" Hudson Gilbert? "
