“What the hell do you think you’re doing here?” Cherry’s dad yelled angrily, shocked that Ronald could actually show his face after everything he had done.“I should be the one asking the questions here,” Ronald shot back coldly.“Ronald, I can’t believe you’re here,” Cherry snapped angrily, stepping forward. “You still think you’re the chairman of that company you built with my father’s hard-earned money? You don’t know anything yet, but that company of yours will crumble, and there will be nothing left to show for it. You should be in jail right now! But because my dad wasn’t willing to drag matters, you think you can just barge in here and be a nuisance? How dare you still be arrogant?”“What… are you really talking to me right now?” Ronald asked slowly as he began taking slow steps toward Cherry. His eyes were dark and dangerous.“How dare you look down on me, you bitch?!” he suddenly yelled at her.Cherry stiffened.“You’re calling me nothing because of what your dad did to my co

A few minutes later, Jayla and Nolan returned back to the villa. When Jayla saw the house standing tall in front of her, she couldn’t believe her eyes. She froze for a moment, staring at it like it would disappear if she blinked.She was super happy. So happy that she suddenly burst into tears.“Oh my God… this is amazing! I can’t believe we now have a new house. Oh my God, I’m so happy!” she cried loudly.She turned to Nolan and threw her arms around him, hugging him tightly while crying loudly. She kept saying she couldn’t believe what was happening. She kept repeating that it felt like a dream.Nolan’s aunt and uncle couldn’t even say anything at that moment. If they opened their mouths to speak, they knew they would burst into tears too. They were already struggling to hold themselves together.They kept looking at Nolan with so much gratitude in their eyes. They silently thanked God for bringing him into their lives. Because of him, things were finally looking good for them. Beca

Nolan was actually happy to see Gina looking like that. He won’t lie about it. He was happy that she was in shock and couldn’t believe what her eyes were seeing. He was happy that she came all the way here just to punish herself. She could have simply gone home earlier and avoided all of this, but she was too stubborn. And now she had seen everything with her own eyes.She had looked down on his family for so long. She had mocked them, insulted them, and made them feel small. Now she had finally learned that they were not who she thought they were.Nolan made a mental note to talk to his uncle and aunt later. He would tell them not to allow anyone bully them anymore, not even Gina and anybody else in this estate. Nobody had the right to make them feel less of themselves.Nolan’s uncle and aunt walked fully into the villa and immediately started looking around. They couldn’t help themselves. The house was luxurious beyond words. Everything inside was pure luxury. From the marble floors

“Are you sure this belongs to us? This… this is for us?” Nolan’s uncle asked, his voice shaking. He looked at the massive villa in front of him again as if it would suddenly disappear. He couldn’t believe that something this big and beautiful, actually belonged to his family. It felt like a lie. It felt like he was dreaming and would soon wake up back in his old, cramped house.“Dad, just take the key and open your villa,” Nolan said with a smile, shaking his head gently.Patrick handed the key back to Nolan’s uncle.Nolan’s uncle walked slowly to the door. He paused for a moment and took a deep breath, trying to calm his racing heart. His hands were slightly shaking as he hesitated because what if what happened earlier repeated itself? What if the key didn’t open this door too? He couldn’t imagine how crushed he would feel if that happened.He would be completely devastated.He would have to return to his old house and live with the disappointment of coming so close to something this

Patrick gave Gina a flat look and couldn’t help but scoff at her words. He knew her very well. She was always a disturbance in the neighbourhood, always involved in one issue or the other. He didn’t even need anyone to explain what had happened earlier to know that she must have insulted Nolan’s family badly. From the way she was talking, it was obvious.He completely ignored her and turned to Nolan’s uncle.“Sir, you’re a distinguished guest of this wonderful estate, and it is only right that you receive the best service anyone could ever get here. If you don’t mind, please allow me to personally escort you to your new home,” Patrick said politely, giving a small respectful bow.“Of course I don’t mind,” Nolan’s uncle replied with a loud laugh. He was so happy that his voice sounded different.“Give me a minute. Let me get the car I will use to take you there. Residents like you are not supposed to be walking,” Patrick added before jogging off.A few moments later, he returned with a

Nolan couldn’t help but wonder at Cherry’s dad’s gesture. Gifting someone a villa was no small work. It wasn’t something you just woke up one morning and decided to do. He was honestly marveled that the man could actually go this far for them. It was insane.If the regular apartments in this estate cost nothing less than five million dollars at the very least, then how much more would a villa cost? How much would it actually be worth? Ten million? Fifteen? Even more?The more Nolan thought about it, the more shocked he became.This wasn’t a small favor and this wasn’t something minor that could be brushed aside. This was a life-changing gift.He couldn’t help but think that for what Cherry’s dad had done for his parents, he truly owed him one because this was not a small matter at all. It was such a big deal that words almost weren’t enough to describe it.“So right now… we’re still residents of this estate…” Nolan’s aunt trailed off, her voice shaking slightly with disbelief and happ

“I worked all my life for your father,” Luis began, his voice filled with bitterness. “Tirelessly helped him build Stellarcorp from the ground up. And when the company became big, he still used me like a fool.”“I didn’t mind at first,” he continued. “I treated Stellarcorp like it was mine too. Gave it everything. But then, out of nowhere, he decides to look for his long-lost son, to give you the company.”Luis scoffed.“He didn’t even ask me what I thought. Didn’t care. Just ordered me to find you and hand it all over. To make it worse, he told me to watch over you while you ran the company. Can you imagine that? Me, the man who brought Stellarcorp to fame, reduced to your babysitter.”“The company should have been mine, not yours. Your father’s lucky he died when he did, helping you escape. It was supposed to be you six feet under, not him. But you were just lucky that day. My men did a sloppy job.”Suddenly, a voice rang out.“Enough of your talk, just kill this bastard already!”

“Am I in a moving car? I’m definitely in one.” Damson thought to himself as he opened his eyes groggily. He tried to sit up and realized he was in the trunk of a car. He banged on it several times, trying to get it open, but it wouldn’t budge. He began to sweat, helpless and disoriented, forced to wait until someone decided to open it.“Who did this to me? What happened?”“Why can’t I remember being put in the trunk?” Is Maria okay? Was she also shoved into another car?”So many questions ran through Damson’s head. He was confused. His head felt heavy, too big to carry.He eventually laid back down and decided to wait until the car stopped. After about twenty minutes of pure torture, the car finally came to a halt. Damson let out a small sigh of relief. He heard muffled voices outside, and then suddenly, the trunk flung open.He blinked against the light and tried to sit up, but his body failed him. He couldn’t move. No matter how hard he tried, only his head responded. “What the he

Damson couldn’t leave the Wilsons just like that after finding out what Mr. Wilson had done for him. The man saved his life, and the least Damson could do was help the family with the funeral preparations. He paid for all the expenses and also gave them a large sum of money to sustain them for a long time. He even advised Logan to invest wisely.He had wanted to stay longer, but Logan asked him not to. His mother and sister would only feel more pain with him around. His presence would be a constant reminder of what happened to their father, and they didn’t need that. Damson understood and didn’t push further so he left.At first, he decided to head to his apartment, but then he changed his mind and went to the dorm instead. He hadn’t been there in a while, and he wanted to see his friends, Luke and Fred. They had reached out to him several times, asking where he was and why he hadn’t been around. At the time, he couldn’t tell them he was married, so he just told them he had gone job

Maria sat in the car, fiddling with her fingers, random thoughts flying through her mind as she stared out the window. Kate was seated beside her, and two other men were in the car with them.She didn’t fully understand what she was doing or what she had just agreed to but one thing was clear, she couldn’t die because of someone else.Damson would do the same, right? Maria wondered, now biting her nails.He’d choose survival too, even if it meant putting me in danger… right? Anyone would… right? She was disturbed.“But Damson betrayed me too. He treated me like a fool, lied to me, and deceived me. I thought that we were close, that our bond was real.”“Had he been acting all along?”“How is he even the president of StellarCorp? When did that happen?”“He was the poorest student in school. So how? It doesn’t make sense.” Maria’s thoughts raced, growing angrier by the second.“I could’ve gotten more opportunities. I could’ve had a good job in his company. I was close to him! But he de

“What! No, no, please don’t kill me. Please don’t,” Maria cried, scared for her life. Today has been a rollercoaster of emotions. She was scared, disturbed, and deeply worried and she couldn’t help but be angry at Damson for dragging her into his mess.She was in this situation because of him.“Caleb and the boss want Damson dead, and now, because of him, I’m going to die too.” She thought to herself. “Where’s Kate?” the boss asked, ignoring Maria’s cries.“Since the last time she almost got caught by Damson, Kate had been lying low.” One of the men replied. “Tell her to come here right now. She has someone to get rid of.”“Is that really the next thing you’re supposed to do? I don’t care what you do with Maria, but can it wait till we finish off Damson? Why are you wasting time killing people you’re not supposed to!?” Caleb asked the boss, frustrated.“It’s your fault this is happening!” the boss snapped. “I told you nobody was supposed to know that Damson is the president of Stel

Caleb ran his hand through his hair angrily. His body trembled, and all he wanted to do was find Damson and end his life. He wasn’t interested in whatever plan the boss had to offer. He just wanted to carry out his own.His life had taken a dip after his father lost his company and couldn’t get help from anyone. He had called all his father’s friends and visited different companies for assistance, but everyone gave him the same answer, they couldn’t help. He was devastated. His father became ill, and they had to sell their cars and properties just to afford treatment.Caleb was left with nothing. He was broke and had to struggle to get by every day. Because of that, he hardly showed up at school. Everyone had known him as one of the richest boys in the university, but now, everything was gone. He had nothing.To avoid questions and rumors, he stayed away from school and wandered around. He spent most of his days at clubs, stealing from people and drinking. It was during one of those
