“That bitch, Selena! She dares to take sides with that commoner just because of some powers he displayed plus the useless piece of paper that's making him become so bold? Huh?As soon as I deal with that man, I promise that I will make sure she rotes in jail for the rest of her life!” Cornell said in anger as he dialled a series of contacts from his phone the moment he began to pace around in his room. Somehow, he found it difficult to believe that Reed's words seemed to have some kind of effect he could not understand to the extent that it bothered him and he could not sleep all night. At first, he thought it was some kind of a joke but then, it turned into something so serious that his heart began to beat in rhythm. Currently, he thought of the perfect person to call just to deal with that man who thought he would go scot-free. Then, he thought of the most powerful bodyguard who was known to a few wealthy people. Only then did a smile appear at the corner of his face. If he co

“I don't understand what you mean, sir” Cornell asked, squeezing his fingers as if that would lighten up his mood. Yet, it caused more pain than ever because he had Wicklow. “All I'm saying is someone greatly helped me recover from my fading health and I had to reward him with something nice. Surely, it's okay to do that.” Smith Snr replied. So, was it really true? Who the hell is this ordinary man? Surely, if he could locate the person, it would definitely be very possible for him to get back the contact and God so good, he would possibly not have called the contact nor would Smith have placed his contact on his list. Then, he wondered who else was in his contact list that had the bodyguard’s contact that he could use. Yet, the only one that came to his mind was the old man he had silently cursed within him. Immediately, a thought crossed his mind. It was definitely possible for him to trick the old man to meet the man and get back what he truly deserved.After all, he would de

“That old useless dementia man! What the hell is he thinking? That I'll find someone for him? What am I? An errand man?” Cornell asked in anger as he checked through his phone and hurriedly placed a call across one of the friends of the prime minister, directly avoiding the prime minister himself. Almost immediately, the man picked up the call..“Mr Nathan? Oh, what a great pleasure to call you right now. I…”“Cornell, why the hell did you call me? Is it to ruin me again, you fool?”At once, a sneer appeared at the corner of his lips. Just recently, he had sabotaged Nathan's ship when one of his ships carrying his thousand dollar goods almost wrecked. He knew he had to do everything possible to make sure nothing happened and so, he gave order for what he had to do. He didn't realize that the middle aged man would find out but why should he find out today of all days?“What the hell? You are the great executive of the nation! Why on earth would I ever want to do that to you?” He as

Almost immediately Reed called the attention of the workers in the rice factory, they all looked at him in irritation. “I am Reed Sinclair, the new owner of the rice factory because all authority has been granted unto me!” He said and brought out a piece of paper written solely by Cornell the previous day. At first, they all looked at each other wondering what was going on. Only then did the head of departments look at each other before someone finally walked up to him and grabbed the piece of paper from him.Immediately, laughter erupted from the woman's lips before she looked at him again in disgust and laughed again. “You all are truly in for a comedy show. I mean… who shows up here just because they want to pretend to be the owner by going about with a piece of paper?She asked. At once, someone else grabbed the paper from her. However, the lady was quick to realize that it was Cornell's handwriting but still, she concluded within herself that other people could have similar ha

Before they could process what was going on, the sound of a Lexus car filled the room and at once, everyone stood abruptly in fear, knowing that Cornell was around. Reed could sense the atmosphere that reeked of fear. Then, he chuckled. Why the hell were they terrified of someone that refused to pay them what they deserved?He wondered. Only then he watched the security personnel have the door opened for him and he got out of the car with a lot of guards. The moment he sighted Cornell, he glared at him coldly with his palms fisted. “How dare you show up here? Do you realize that you are trespassing on my property?” Cornell asked in anger but having a sense of pride with the feeling that he got a lot of guards behind him. Shocks filled the eyes of the people around to see that guards trooped in. “All of these for me?” Reed wondered with a scoff. It would take him nothing less than a minute to finish off the guards. However, they were innocent in the feud that was between him and

Selena? Why would she go the Extra miles just because she wanted to help him? Didn't he tell her not to get involved in it? He could always take care of himself! Reed thought, exhaling out. Truly, what she did melted his heart and he was grateful for it but this was too much!Cornell at once became relieved. Then, a smile erupted from the corner of his lips because he had thought that this woman was probably around because of him. “Oh my dear! You have finally changed your mind when you realize who the real boss is! Don't you think so?” The man asked while she scoffed and glared at him. Is this useless man sick in the head to realize that she is no longer on his side anymore? She could also bet a million times that his workers were also not on his side but because they looked down on Reed, they did not know who the hell boss truly was!“Of course I am not here because of you! Prick!” Selena said almost immediately. Only then did Reed smile lightly. This woman is the definition of

At once, the card went through and immediately, a huge sum of money was disbursed from the account. The look on Reed's face became priceless as he heard the gasp and shock that came from them.However, what further shocked them the most was the fact that he did not even blink twice before he did what he did. Some of them had rich friends and relatives and they knew what they did with money. In fact, they sometimes had to hesitate before they could pay any amount of money. It didn't take a while before the officers received their share of the work they had done. Then, their faces became filled with joy. Initially, when they met Reed, they were shocked that this was the person they had come to attend to. However, they could not question the authority of Selena. Now, they realized why she did that. “Thank you very much, Mr Reed. If there's anything else you want us to do concerning renovating this place, you can let us know. We will direct you to the right channel!”The head of the

“What the hell is that all about?” Reed asked in confusion the moment he heard the message. However, Selena did not know whether now was the time to let him know what exactly was going on. It turned out that in the past, as a means of making money, Cornell was involved in a money laundering scheme that centered on lost wealthy young adults. “I don't know how to tell you this but what I am about to show you is what has been going on in the basement of the factory, sir,” Selena replied while he furrowed his brows at her, standing more confused. The last time he checked, factories have no business with anything that was relating to basements.What the hell did Cornell cook down there?Only then did he nod his head while the woman hesitated for a while before she took him towards a dark path in THE factory. A minute later, they were on a stuffy staircase which led to the same basement she was talking about. Then, the sound of a young lad filled his ears the moment they stopped at a do

Half an hour later, Reed was on the driver's seat while the two boys sat behind. Just as he was about to ignite the engine, he turned to look at him. “You've got something to say? I am taking you both to your family since the blood group turns out to be positive”“How am I even sure that you're right? I don't trust you, man! You seem like a con artist to me!” Tiffins began. “Hey!” Vince yelled out. “I wasn't referring to you. You aren't even a member of my family and you think it's right for you to sit beside me? Just wait until I get on the good side of my mom, I'll kick you out!” He threatened. Reed couldn't believe his ears. He stared at the papers again to confirm what he had seen and truly, they were family. Then, he stared at Tiffins from the rear view and realized that he was only behaving like that because of the wealth the grand uncle had. Then, he scoffed. There was no assurance that the old man would accept them both because that alone would seem like a shock to them
Chapter 30
The drive to the Smith's residence began as Reed drove as though he had handled a Rolls Royce car in the past. However, that was not true. His father once had a truck he drove and so, he used the same knowledge to drive the same car. A while later, Reed could see the manicured hedges that glowed in warm light as he drove into the Smiths private road. It didn't take a few minutes before he stopped in front of a luxury estate surrounded by high gates and trimmed gardens. Then, a sudden barring sound filled his ears. Immediately, he stopped the car coldly as he glared at the gates. He knew he could easily use his powers to have the gates opened and stop the blasting sound. However, he respected the fact that it was someone else's house.“#code 1, an intruder is right in front of the gate.” Almost immediately, the security officers that guarded the house came together and rushed towards the Rolls Royce car. The sound had alerted them because such a car had never been ridden into th
