11: Accusation
Noah pressed the doorbell and waited. Almost immediately, the door opened and Aria showed up in front of him.“What took you so long? It's almost ten,” She said through her teeth so whoever was in the room wouldn't hear her.“I'm sorry about that,” he apologized.He didn't want to go through the details and tell him that he slept over at Gilbert's house. So, that morning he had to go home to change.“Is that Mr Cedric?” A soft calm voice inquired from inside. “Let him in please.”Aria released a sigh. ”Just be conscious and don't talk too much,” She reminded, and finally stepped aside for him to enter.Mia was settling the table but she looked up immediately, a wide smile plastered across her face. “Adrian, our guest has arrived,” she called out.Adrian showed up instantly, looking smart in blue jeans and a long brown t-shirt. He moved closer to him and extended his hand for a handshake. “It's an honour to dine with your kind of caliber. I hope you don't mind our house.”Noah took it
12: Cedric’s Loyalists
“The bank is closed!” one of the men yelled. “Everyone leave now!” he continued. “Everyone except Noah!”Everyone was shocked.“What's happening? Why is the bank closing at such an hour?”“This is a theft involving a huge amount of money. Don't you think the manager is right to close the bank?”“Besides, he must have stolen it from one of Brookhaven's bigwigs. He's in big soup today.”“But what will happen to me,” the rich man from earlier complained. “I need to withdraw right away,”One of the security men moved closer to him. "You are to leave immediately or we will force you out," he threatened.The man groaned but eventually followed the others out.Philip felt bad as he was not able to collect tips from the man this time around. Yet, he was happy that he was able to catch Noah. Humiliating Noah was enough for the day.Within a twinkle of an eye, the whole bank was empty except for the workers and Noah. At this point, Noah had no idea what was really happening.But everyone gathere
13: Better Life
Robinson led the way to his office, followed closely by Gilbert and Noah. But when they got to the front of the door, Robinson stepped aside for Noah to enter.Noah hesitated briefly before he eventually did.As Robinson closed the door, he hurried to stand in front of Noah, with his back slightly bent. “Is this true?”Noah regarded him for a moment, with confusion written all over him before he turned to Gilbert. “Is what true?”Gilbert laughed. “I told him the truth, Noah.”Robinson smiled. “It's my pleasure to be able to meet Cedric personally. I need to stay this close to you so I don't forget this in a year to come.”Noah sighed, “Gilbert!”Gilbert laughed again.Actually, the two friends were having a discussion when they saw that there was trouble downstairs through the camera. Gilbert saw Noah first and so informed Robinson of who Noah really was.“Robinson has been my close friend since forever. And he's a true fan of you, just that he has never seen you before.”“Please, let
14: A challenge
The flight to the capital was the longest Noah had ever taken, though in truth, it lasted barely two hours.He spent most of it staring out the window and thinking about how old Jennifer had grown already.The moment he landed, the difference was obvious. Towering skyscrapers pierced the evening sky while streams of luxury cars flooded the roads outside the airport.Noah stepped out of the terminal and ordered a taxi to the casino. Noah had heard of the casino before but he had no idea where it was located.Il Leone casino was so popular in Casington. It was not only patronised by the mafia members but also by the citizens that just wanted to earn more money.Noah stepped inside. He was met with a wash of light. There were crystal chandeliers spilling gold across polished marble floors. There were rows of slot machines chiming like metallic birds. And the air carried a mix of perfume, aged whiskey and recycled smoke, thick enough to taste if you breathe in too deeply.Card tables str
15: Gamble!
Jennifer regarded the man in front of her for a moment. He doesn't look like a regular.“Are you sure about that? There’s no going back once you’ve started,” she warned.Oliver looked at the speaker, it was Noah, one of his employers. He was shocked at first. What was he doing there?Then he laughed. He must be there after being sacked and sent out of the house he had provided for him.Now that he had no use for his life, he had decided to gamble. Perhaps he could double the wages he gave him.“You should take Miss Jennifer's warning to heart, Noah,” Oliver warned suddenly. “Or you will be wasting your wages right here.”“Do you know him, Mr. Oliver?”Oliver had actually earned himself some reputation at the casino for winning in a role but Oliver knew what he was doing. He was only good at one casino machine and he made sure that was the only game he played.Besides, there was a special reason for that. After his company had signed under Lussotech, it flourished.But Oliver wanted mo
16: Bursted
Another murmur ensued. “Is this boy being foolish? He should just take his earnings and go.”“You've not learnt your lesson, have you? Go ahead and lose!” Oliver insulted.Noah scoffed. “And who said I am going to lose?”Oliver laughed. “You don't even know what black jack is all about! Shouldn't you be surrendering and praising Miss Jennifer for her skill?”“Well, you are right. It's been a while since I've played.”Oliver turned to Jennifer quickly. “You see, Miss Jennifer. This boy doesn't know anything and can never compete with you.”“But I will win this,” Noah stated in a thick voice.“Lies!” He spat out. “If you win, I will kneel and call you father!”Noah smiled widened. “You better don’t forget that!”Jennifer hesitated briefly. She had played six games already and barely any small cards. So, it would be easier for her to win again, especially with ten cards still available.“Challenge accepted,” she said finally and dealt the cards again. Noah had a four and seven while Jen
17: The Real Il Fuoco
How could Lussotech be his? He wouldn't have imagined it.“It was the company your mother had started before she died. Before she died, she made me the CEO of the company and made me promise her that I would find you and hand it over to you in good shape,” she explained.Noah couldn't believe this. It felt so surreal. So, he was the owner of the company everyone talks about. The big, successful company was his.“But how did you survive? Where have you been?” She bombarded him. Happiness couldn't contain her heart at the sight of him. The fact that she had searched every hook, cranny, and corner but couldn't find the heir has made her ill.But who would have thought that she would see him again at Il Leone casino of all places?Noah smiled softly. “I’ve been in Brookhaven. In fact, that's where I came from this morning.”“What! So that's why I couldn't find you all these years. I kept checking the wrong places,” She lamented.Jennifer felt a stab of pain in her heart. She adjusted back
18: Cedric’s elder
Oliver stepped forward in defense. “Miss Jennifer, you don't need to say that. I'm sure he knows what he's doing but I'm sure this man is really guilty. You don't even need to check the surveillance cameras.”“I heard Cedric has never shown his face,” Noah continued, ignoring Oliver's words. “But I heard Miss Jennifer say he came visiting the casino today. Right, Miss Jennifer?” Noah demanded, as he looked at Jennifer briefly.Jennifer nodded once, with a soft smile. “Cedric is truly around but in disguise and he's watching,” she confirmed,Everyone gasped.“You heard that?” Noah continued. “Do you know what he hates the most?”“How the heck did you know what Il fuoco hates the most? You'd better come out clean before Miss Jennifer calls on il fuoco for you!” Oliver attacked again.“Of course, I do,” Noah smiled softly.He seriously does because he is Cedric. “Alright then, since you are being like this, I'm open to everything,” Noah uttered and turned to Jennifer. “I suggest you do e
Chapter 19: Accepting the Boss
Kyle sat up, unable to believe what he was hearing.“Y_yes, i_” Aria stammered, too excited to form a correct sentence. “Of course I am ready. In fact, I can sign tomorrow,” she said finally.“Alright, we will be expecting you tomorrow,” the voice at the other end finished and the phone went off.Aria jumped up for joy.“See, father? Adrian boasted. “I told you Aria could do anything she set her mind on. It's not fair for you to make her step down as the CEO.”Kyle nodded several times. “This is good news! And yes, Aria can keep her position and her boyfriend as well,” he nodded as he spoke, a satisfied grin on his face.Adam and Cynthia couldn't talk. They felt cornered.“It's my seventy birthday in a few days now. Can you invite Miss Jennifer as well?” Kyle requested.“Of course!” Aria responded. “Since we would be in partnership then. I'm sure they would surely attend.”“Then we'd better start preparing big. And yes, make sure your husband shows up,” Kyle finally stood and left. He
20: Succession Ceremony
Noah smiled. “Why should I kill one of my elders?”Jennifer whooped with delight.Gilbert laughed. “I told you! The boss isn't someone you should mess with.”Martin placed his head on the floor. “I deserve death for challenging you!”He couldn't have imagined it. He thought the real Cedric was very weak. Jay was very strong and going against him as a weak Cedric would not favour anyone.However, it was clear that he had just made a huge mistake. Cedric was as strong as his father.Noah moved closer, “Arise.”Martin stood up instantly, his eyes full of admiration for Noah. “The real Cedric is strong. You are fit for this position but I'm afraid Jay holds most of the power now.”Noah glanced at Gilbert. “My father's PA?”Martin nodded once. “But he's currently the regent of Cedric. By the end of this year, the succession ceremony will happen and he will cease to be the regent. But even at that, he would hold the overall power as the eldest because of how close he was with Alaric,” he ex
