"We have been ambushed" The Taxi driver stuttered, his hands shaking on the steering wheel.
"Open this Goddamn door," One of the aggressive-looking gangsters hit the car.
"Please, please, I have nothing. I've not made a single dime since morning," the taxi driver begged as he opened the door of the car, stepping out of the car with his hands in the air.
"You too, get down from the car." They pointed to Nathan, who sneered. He stepped down from the car, sweeping his gaze across the faces of the men who attacked him to see if he found their faces familiar.
"Nathan!!! Surprised?" A man walked from behind the gangsters and slowly approached Nathan with his head high.
"No, I'm not. In fact, I thought you'd come with a thousand of your dogs that you call boys to fight with me," Nathan scoffed with his gaze on Nigel. The gangsters grumbled amongst themselves while staring at Nathan with bloodshot eyes as if they were about to rip his throat out of his body, making the taxi driver scared to the bones.
He gently took his phone out of his pocket to dial 911 but unfortunately, one of the gangsters caught him and dragged his phone from him, "The idiot was about to call the police" one of Nigel's boys said and punched the driver's stomach causing him to fall on his knees
Nigel shifted his attention to the taxi driver and squatted to face him. "If you want to live, then don't try anything stupid, okay?" Nigel threatened.
"O... ok... okay, please spare my life. My wife put to bed three days ago," He begged with beads of sweat on his face.
Nigel ignored him and turned to his main target, Nathan. "Nathan, Nathan, you've grown wings, right? But today, I'll break those wings before ending your miserable life." Nigel paused and took a few steps closer to Nathan. "In your next life, you won't dare to offend any girl named Isabella"
Nigel snapped his fingers causing all his boys to surround Nathan. In the hands of each of Nigel's boys was a baseball bat ready to attack Nathan. Without wasting time, they surrounded him and swung their bats attacking him at once.
"Whooo! Whooo!"
To their surprise, Nathan dodged every single bat attack making it look like they were beating the air.
"What? How could he do that?" One of the men muttered.
Nathan smiled lightly and curled his hand into a blow.
"Bang!" Using a forced strength, he hit one of the men in the chest at a speed and without wasting time, he channeled all the energy in his leg and kicked the guy in the back.
"Ah!" The guy fell with a heavy thud spraining his ankle instantly.
"Wow!" They all turned to look at him, their faces full of horror.
"How dare you attack our man?" They yelled and attacked swinging their bats to hit him, but as if he was an invisible force, he sidestepped each attack dodging it with ease, and countered each attack with a strong blow.
Nigel was furious. He staggered backward and slipped because the taxi driver was on his way. "Get the hell out of my way!" He yelled, trying to stand to his feet. Nigel kept his eyes on Nathan, who slowly approached him.
A smile broke on Nigel's face as he got to his car. He took out his pistol and pointed it at Nathan. "Stop right there Nathan! I must have underestimated you," Nigel said. He thought that beating up Nathan would be a piece of cake. "It seems that like you're a good fighter, but you can't fight against a gun," He laughed and took a few steps forward
Nathan didn't flinch. He stood on a spot watching Nigel keenly as if waiting for the time when he would let his guard down so that he could attack, but Nigel got his eyes on him. Nathan sneered at Nigel's words. He didn't feel disappointed. "A goat cannot give birth to a lion," He thought.
"You talk too much, Nigel," Nathan said, taking a step forward. Nigel was furious, so he instantly tried aiming properly, preparing to shoot.
The sounds of cars filled Nigel's ear, causing him to turn immediately to see who it was, only to be amazed by the number of luxurious cars that passed and stopped right in front of him. His eyes swept across every car. "One, two, three...." He tried counting when his eyes fell on his target, Nathan
"What is all this?" He yelled, feeling confused. The taxi driver instantly stood to his feet, thanking his creator for sending a Savior.
"Take your car home," Nathan said, patting his back and without looking back, he hurriedly entered his car and drove off
"What is all of this Nathan!!! Answer me when I speak," Nigel yelled, pointing the gun at him in front of everyone. Two hefty young men briskly walked towards him. They knocked him to the floor and seized the gun from him.
"How dare you hurt Mr. Poroit! You dared to point a gun at him," a young girl said from behind the men. She stepped forward a bit, revealing her beautiful brown dress and heels to Nigel. He watched her keenly and scoffed, thinking that she was just a weak girl who tried to oppress him with power.
"And who are you to tell me what to do?" Nigel asked and groaned in pain. He clutched his teeth and tried standing to his feet to face her, but before she could reply, Nathan stepped in the middle of them.
"Everything was under my control," Nathan said, indicating that he didn't need his family's help
"I'm sorry, Mr. Poroit, but a nuisance has to be taught a lesson," she said, stepping backward before aiming at Nigel's leg. She kicked his leg, causing him to groan in pain as he leaped. He clutched his teeth in anger and attempted to punch her, but Nathan held his hands.
"Don't dare," Nathan warned, but Nigel wasn't scared of him. He still saw Nathan as a weak, lazy, and poor man.
"Get lost Nathan, I don't know what all of this is, poverty has gotten to you that you choose to imagine yourself as a rich person" Nigel paused and turned to the hefty men and the others that came with the luxurious cars before continuing, "Don't you know who he is? Don't let him deceive you. He's a poor rat that feeds on the leftovers of my sister. " Before Nigel could blink, the girl punched him in his face
"Don't dare speak of Mr. Poroit like that," she spat on him and turned to the boys, "Teach him a lesson."
Nigel and the gangsters were terrified as they winced in pain. The only thought that crossed their minds was to leave the premises immediately, but they were surrounded. Nigel reached for the gun that fell from his hand when he got kicked the first time. He hid the gun, but he didn't have the balls to shoot anyone with it."My sister is the CEO of Foden Group and her boyfriend is Luke! If you hurt me, you'll regret it," Nigel shouted, but she ignored him. Nigel has never been in a situation like this before, he always had the upper hand, and most especially, he underestimated Nathan. He thought beating him up would just be a piece of cake.Nigel decided to risk his life by pulling the trigger on Nathan. He slowly tried bringing the gun from where he hid it."What's that you're hiding?" One of the hefty men in a black suit asked the second he saw him. Nigel didn't respond, his ego didn't get him to beg for them to let him go. "What's that you're hiding?" He asked again, but Nigel didn
Before Emma or Isabella could mention another word, Nathan ended the call and slid his phone into his back pocket.After ending the call, he turned to Lily who was standing beside him, and asked, "You haven't told me the reason why you chose to find me." A faint smile appeared on Lily's face then it instantly vanished after seeing the stern look on Nathan's face, "I need your help" she replied, causing Nathan to arch an eyebrow"Please come with me to the car," she said and Nathan reluctantly got into the car with her, "The Carbin mansion" Lily instructed the driver and he nodded in acknowledgment"Where are we going?" Nathan asked, with a frown on his face."The Carbin's family mansion?" she replied "No! Why are we going there?" He rephrased the question. Lily turned to him and heaved a long sigh before saying, "My family is in a big mess Nathan and we need your help," She continued, "The Lord of the Carbin family took our drugs and instead of getting better, he got worse and we n
"What's happening to my father?""What's wrong?" Everyone in the room began to panic, except Nathan. He kept his eyes on the Carbin's Lord."Everyone, calm down," He yelled just to get their attention, "Mr. Carbin will be fine," Nathan added. He turned to look at the faces of everyone in the room. He scoffed after sewing the expression on the doctor's face."Please, I don't want to lose my husband. Tell me what we need to do," Mrs. Carbin begged. Nathan didn't utter a word. He noticed the terrified look on Isabella's face before he took a few steps closer to the Lord, who was unconscious on the bed."He was poisoned," Nathan said as he took out a powder from his pocket. This spec powder can cure any poison in the world and it was invented by Nathan. He's the only one who knows its recipe. In the black market, one gram of the powder is worth half a million. People usually call it a magic drug because it works like magic.The room became pin-drop silent and everyone watched Nathan. No o
"No... no... no, I honestly wasn't aware of the poison," Doctor Tony stuttered, but no one listened to him"Save that crap for someone else! We thought that you were an expert, you're just a quack doctor and if not for this young gentleman, then my father would have been dead by now all because of your wrong medication," The first son of the family said in a rage. He was upset and couldn't imagine what would have happened if his father had died all because of that careless act."I'm sorry sir, I wasn't aware of the poison, it seems that it was hidden, please forgive me for my carelessness," the doctor begged"Okay, it's understandable that you're not good enough to save my father but then you tried to stop Nathan from curing my father all because you wanted to save your dignity," He continued with a frown on his face, "That's unacceptable"He turned to Nathan feeling grateful, "Thank you, Nathan, Even after we listened to this hypocrite and stopped you from giving your medicine to my
Lily strolled through her phone and dialed her assistant's number instantly to convene the press conference."Linda," Lily said as soon as her assistant answered the call"Good afternoon ma, I went through Mr. Carbin's file ma and...""We have sorted that, Linda. The Lord of the Carbin family is totally fine now," she informed her assistant."What... What happened ma, it was our drugs, right?" Lily giggled at how curious her assistant was. "You'll find out Linda, calm down, I have a reason for calling you," Lily said"Oh, I'm sorry ma, I'm just excited that we will finally stop receiving threats from the Carbin family," she said, causing me to smile faintly"I want you to convene a press conference tomorrow night at the Brown family mansion, okay?" Lily said."Yes, but tomorrow is the company's anniversary," Linda reminded her"I know. After the press conference, we'll start the anniversary party," Lily responded and ended the call. She turned to Nathan and asked, "I'm sorry for intr
"I live here and my house number is No. 1," Nathan said, causing the salesman to burst into laughter. The laughter was so infectious that the small crowd joined him in laughing."House No. 1 was sold to a mysterious rich man," the salesman informed. "And obviously, it seems like you're a homeless beggar that can't even afford a meal talk less of buying a house," He added"We should call the police," Isabella's friend suggested"Yes, let's call the police, he's a shameless criminal" They all agreed, and the salesman took his phone out of his pocket"Shameless beggar" "I can't believe that he shamelessly said that he owns a house here, someone that doesn't even have a place to have his bath," they mocked him. "I can't believe he imagined owning a house like that. Does he even know the price of it?" They mocked him and laughed.In the community, there were only 100 villas, and the smaller the numbers, the greater the price. No. 1 villa was the most expensive villa in the community. It
Isabella’s friend was beyond stunned, she couldn’t believe what she was seeing so she turned to the crowd and yelled, “Don’t believe this poor church rat, he’s nothing without my friend, I’m sure he just did one or two tricks here”The small crowd whispered amongst themselves, wondering if Nathan was right or not, but seeing the kind of clothes he was wearing made them doubt his claims“He’s the mysterious man that bought mansion number 1,” the administrator said, turning to face the crowd“And everyone here needs to apologize to him, no buts!” The administrator commanded, but the old woman hissed and spat.“Why would I do that? Why can’t he dress the way he wants to be addressed or did he use all his money to buy a house and forget to buy clothes and a car,” she said, causing everyone to murmur among themselves.“I agree, he’s just a poor man,” Two women chorused A smile formed on Isabella’s friend lips as she watched Nathan being humiliated by everyone around themBefore the Admini
"The Lord is dying, he desperately needs your help, anything you want will be granted to you sir," Mr. Timothy informedNathan scoffed as he stared at him in disbelief. When Nathan's parents died, none of them fought with him to get justice. They let him wander and now that they needed his help, they knew he existed"So pathetic!" Nathan said and narrowed his eyes"We need you back to save the lord, please. He's retiring now and we need an heir," Mr. Timothy continued. "You're the rightful heir." "I'm not ready to come back home now Tim, nothing you say or do will change my mind," He said sternly"Another investigation is currently ongoing for the second time and this time, the people involved in his death will be punished." Nathan instantly turned to face Timothy after hearing those words on his lips"Now he has chosen to cooperate," Nathan said. "We all know who's involved!" Nathan said, raising his voice in anger. It hurt him that he didn't have any evidence against them"It's all
