CHAPTER ONE
“That’s how I like it.” “Yes, just like that.”Edwin paid attention carefully and heard the soft moan coming from Valerie’s room.After a long day at work, he had just returned from his duty post as a body guard and wanted to give a special surprise to Valerie because it was her birthday.His thoughts were spiraling and his mind were telling him things that he did not want to even believe.To confirm his suspicion he knocked on the door and there was a silence. “Valerie darling, please open the door.” He said softly.Valerie and Edwin lived in separate houses. Valerie had rented an apartment and gave the keys to Edwin so he could come any time he wanted.Again he knocked on the door for the second time and his ears picked up on someone cursing underneath their breath. “Valerie. Please open the door!” He knocked the door very hard.Again there was no answer but his ears heard someone wearing their clothes and then footsteps approaching the door. “Who is in there with you Valerie?” He

Edwin managed to wake up but his head hurts and he winced in pain. “Dammit!” He cursed.His eyes scanned the environment. “Where am I?” The room was painted in bright navy blue and there was an amazing furniture inside. “Thank goodness you are awake.” He turned around and noticed someone entered the room.“Max. Where is this place? What is happening?” Edwin asked.“Oh this is actually my room. Valerie informed me to come and pick you up in front of her premises and when I got there it looked like you were dead.” Max explained.He stepped forward and sat down by the bed while still holding eye contact with Edwin. “What is going on with you?” Max asked.A whole lots of memory rushed back to Edwin’s head. He recalled Valerie cheating on him and then asking for a divorce. Joelington her new boyfriend also laid his hand on him and that his how he ended up here.“Are you really crying over a woman? Come on Edwin. You should be thankful that you quickly know the type of woman you are dealin
CHAPTER THREE
“Take this.” Isaac hands over a gold credit card to Edwin. “Inside that account is unlimited amount of money. You can get yourself whatever you like but I hope you don’t squander it.”Edwin stared at the gold card and then at Max and they smiled simultaneously. Being given a gold credit card meant that Edwin wasn’t just rich, he was super rich.Isaac walked away and head into his car without saying anything further. “Be cautious on the road uncle.” He said as the man entered his black Bentley and drove off afterwards.Edwin was thinking about the amount of money that his uncle had sent to him. He pulled out his phone as Max returned into his house and decide to check the credit score of the card. “Ah!” He screamed seeing the enormous amount that has been given to him.His hand was shaking and his face was sweating really profusely. “What happened?” Max asked rushing back out of the house. “I…I… This…” Edwin could not say any proper word. He hands over the phone to Max who takes a loo
CHAPTER FOUR
Edwin and Max were still in the restaurant having themselves a good time when they are suddenly approached by two different muscular men.They wore black tuxedo and a black glass that conceals their faces. “We have just been informed that the both of you walked into the restaurant without a card. Can we please see your card sir.” One of the men demanded.Edwin chuckled for a moment wondering what they are even talking about. He had paid for everything and never did the waiter informed him about any card. “I think you got the wrong person.” Max replied to them.“No sir. We just got told that the both of you have no card with you.” The guard replied and reached into his pocket and removed a black card.“Clifford restaurant usually offer this to the customers when they arrive and I don’t think you have any one with you.” “Where can we get one of those?” Edwin asked with a raised eye brow.“That means you both are thieves. Criminals who are after sabotaging the reputation of this eatry.”
CHAPTER FIVE
“Welcome to the Maverick family’s mansion” Isaac announced as Edwin and Max stepped out of the car to greet him.They had arrived late into the night. Edwin was blown away by the massive structure of the mansion. To him it was a building that he was only opportune to see in the movies.“Come inside.” Isaac said with a smile seeing the look of surprise on the face of both men.He had instructed his guards to go and fetch them with his luxurious limousine and the only car owned by anyone in the country.When they walked into the living room, Max tapped Edwin’s shoulder and he turned around to look at him. “Are you sure this isn’t a dream?” Edwin smiled. He had the same thought too when he learnt about his heritage of his father but right now he has learned to deal with it.He was a rich man now and that is all that mattered. “Dinner will be served in a moment. The rest of the Mavericks are in their room and they will be coming soon to meet up with you.” Isaac announced as they settled
CHAPTER SIX
After dinner, Edwin and Max were given separate rooms but Edwin ends up in Max room discussing with him. “Did you see the way that woman was looking at you?” Max asked.“Yea, what happened to that?” “Dude, she loves you. I have never seen any woman want a man so badly like she does.” Max revealed.“Unfortunately, Liam the guy who tried to throw shades at me in the dinning table claims that she has been in three separate relationships in the past. I guess her desire for man is a natural trait.” Edwin replied with a shrug off his shoulder.Max stands up from the bed and walked towards the table picking up the glass of orange juice and gulping it all the way down. “You are still angry over what Valerie did to you.” He observed, carefully dropping the glass on the table.“Tell me who will not be angry. This woman brought pain to me. I thought we were going to make a perfect couple and get ourselves kids. I don’t think I can find myself loving another woman again.” Max sighed and walked
CHAPTER SEVEN
The next day everyone had gone out. Max told Edwin that he had other jobs to attend to and took his leave. Edwin was going through the mansion enjoying the view of the place when he stumbled on Isaac in the gym. “I thought you left.” He said with a smile on his face.“Not really, I just wanted hang around before leaving.” Edwin replied with a smile.Isaac resumed his session in the gym till he was done doing several reps and then as he picked up his towel, Edwin decides to ask the question lingering in his mind. “Last night, Liam told me that you have ordered that I take over his company.” “True. Liam has proven time after time that he cannot be trusted. He wasted a whooping a million dollar on a club house. As a business man that is an abomination.” Edwin kept quiet because he knew that his uncle was right. He couldn’t help but wonder what Liam was even thinking wasting such huge money. “You are going to be handlng the affairs of the company. It is better to trust someone like yo

“On behalf of the board of directors, we are glad to have you in our midst today.” A middle aged man said, while rising to his feet.“My name is Bobb. And that is Jack, Holmes and of course Linda.” Bobb introduced.Edwin was already impressed by them. He did not need to ask before he knew that they were people of great competence. “We assure you that we will do everything within our power to make this company keep on moving strong.” There was a loud applause as Bobb sits back down on his sit.“Thank you everyone.” Edwin said, clearing his throat. “I think I made a big mistake not wearing a suit to this meeting and I apologize for that.” They all laughed.“Can we get straight into the days business?” Edwin asked.Bobb rise to his feet with a brown file and carefully sets it at his table and returned back to his sit. “Right there is one of our investors demands since the past couple of weeks. According to Mr. Joelington, he wants his dividend increased because he brought financial adv
CHAPTER NINE
Edwin was back at the MavEdwink’s mansion and while heading to the lounge when he comes across Isabella. He tried taking another path but he was interrupted by Isabella, who called out his name. “A word.” She said.Edwin sighed and begin taking steps closer to her. He stood a few distance away from her but Isabella breached the space between them.“I know that what I am about to say sound stupid but I have been restless for the past few days and it is because of the fact that I.” She stopped, looking away thinking through words that she was about to say.“You what?” Edwin asked.“I love you Edwin. I know we just met few days but words will fail me if I am to describe how I feel for you.”Edwin could not believe what he was hearing. No woman has ever expressed their feelings for him. Isabella was the first and although many men will want to jump into the opportunity but regardless he wasn’t like them. “I am sorry Isabella, we cannot work.” He replied politely.“But why?” She asked, t
CHAPTER TEN
Isabella knew that she wasn’t going to die and allow his son live without a mother. She was determined to fight for her survival. Isabella thought of ways to get out of the dungeon. The place had strong iron and not even the strongest man on earth would be able to tear it apart. She had to go through the front and if she was going to succeed, she needed a plan for it.Isabella wasn’t much of a liar, but when desperate times called for it, she needed to lie. “Guard!” she yelled and one of the guards rushed over to the dungeon, opened the door and stepped inside the cage. “What is the matter with you? Why did you shout like that?” Isabella chuckled for a moment, and licked her lips seductively at the guard, who raised his eyebrow in a questioning manner.“Has anyone told you how handsome you look?” Isabella said in a very low tone, hoping the guard would be able to fall for her trick.“Excuse me? Why are you sounding like this? Are you mentally okay?” The guard asked a few question a
