CHAPTER FORTY-TWO Clinton was annoyed after hearing what Mario had done to his favorite car, but it didn’t seem like his rival cared about the way he felt. “You can’t do anything to me now, Clinton boy! I am the one standing, and you are the one tied to a chair.” Mario sniggered at Clinton, determined to ridicule him as much as he could.“I heard that Lady Sharon has declared you the President of Bilton Holding. I wonder how many times you warmed her bed for her to make such a ridiculous decision. It turns out that you not only know how to ruin things for people just like you ruined mine, you also know how to take what doesn’t belong to you.” “Everyone cannot be as foolish as you, Mario,” Clinton said with a smirk on his face, but Mario scoffed because he didn’t understand what he said.“Five years ago before you left the City, I told you never to return but you insisted on coming back. You haven’t spent more than a few weeks in Eastside City, yet you have caused me a job that I ha

CHAPTER FORTY-FOURMario panicked, but from Vince’s countenance and body movement, it didn’t look like he was bothered about Clinton’s threat.“Do something, Vince! I don’t want to go to jail!” Mario pleaded, but what he got was unexpectedly a chuckle from the young and arrogant fellow.“Relax, Doctor. He is just bluffing, and even if he isn’t, you have no need to be afraid. My father is very powerful and you know it.” Vince’s voice reeked of so much overconfidence, and he glared at Clinton afterward.The certainty that everything he said was going to end up the way he thought convinced him to stand up to Clinton, who had already made up his mind to do nothing.“Are you sure about this, Vince? I don’t want to go to jail.” Mario wasn’t convinced enough because of the changes he had seen in Clinton.After the experience at the Mayor’s residence, he was afraid that he could do what he said he was going to do.“Fear not, Doctor Mario. I will put a call across to some men, they will come h

CHAPTER FORTY-SIXAt that moment, everyone was silent including Clinton. But as soon as the crowd saw who the commenter was, they began to whisper among themselves.“That’s Mr. Dan Rodrigues. Lady Sharon’ ex-fiancé.” “I heard she dumped him after she found out that he was after her money and was sleeping with one of her employees.”“You are correct! They used to run the company together until he messed up and she ended things with him.”Clinton had never met the man before, but from the little gossips he was able to pick from the crowd, he had a little idea about him.The was barely five feet tall, and with a face that looked like he had never smiled in his life. Clinton wondered why Lady Sharon chose to be with that kind of person, but he had to get distracted as soon as Dan halted his steps in front of him.“It is you, you are the Doctor everyone has been talking about.” Dan scowled at Clinton as though he had taken what rightfully belonged to him.Anyone who saw the two of them co

CHAPTER FORTY-EIGHTMore people were heading into the hall. The news that the rumored husband of the precious daughter of the Caleb family had arrived spread and everyone wanted to see what he looked like.Rachael smiled when she saw more people walking into the hall, and she waited to make sure that they were all in suitable positions.“I see that you still insisted on coming to this party even after you did to, Clinton. Where is your shame?” James had been waiting for the right time pounce on Clinton, and as soon as the music stopped, he continued.“I am here to clean up the mess you made, Clinton. Rachael told me about the way you put them into trouble by attacking Mr. Ham’s son. I am kind enough to render my help…”“Oh, really?” Clinton reacted the way no one had expected him to react.He looked at James like he didn’t matter and that gave him negative goosebumps.“You should be grateful to James, Clinton. He has decided to help us deal with the terrible situation you put us in. I

CHAPTER FIFTYClinton was a bit disappointed that the old man didn’t want to give him a chance to explain before he began to give in to the accusations his three assailants were making against him.“You are getting this all wrong, Lord Caleb. This is the new President of Bilton Holdings.” Oliver made another attempt to conSeththe old man that Clinton was telling the truth, but the look on his face showed that he doubted, even though he didn’t want to say it at that moment. “How have I offended you, Mr. Stone? Is this how you have chosen to make fun of my family? Is this worth it?”“I am confused, Lord Caleb. Why would I want to make fun of you? My father was your best friend.”“Exactly, Mr. Stone! That is the reason why you shouldn’t be making such stories up. I will not stand here and watch you do this.” Lord Caleb frowned. He looked very upset at that moment.“Clinton? Why? Why did you choose to do this to me? Is it because we made you marry Rachael against your wish?” The old man
