2025-06-23 23:39:42“I'm really sorry about the delay Lord Abel…”
“Mr Jackson, I have really warned you not to address me as Lord Abel, especially when we are on the phone.”
“You can never know who is eavesdropping on our conversation.” Abel Scott slowly said as he stared at his wife from the other end of the road.
“No problems…Mister Abel Scott.”
“Any lead on my grandfather's case? Have you been able to find the bastard who poisoned Lord Rene's because if you haven't I will be forced to do things my own way?” Abel Scott said as he paced across the street.
“Lord…I mean Mister Abel, I have my intel but I still have to do my own personal scrutinization, you never can truly trust this intel most of the time.”
“I assure you Mister Abel Scott, we will find out what really happened to your grandfather and we will have justice for the Scott's family…for now I will advise you to lie low.”
“A more resourceful intel told me that the gang that was hired to take out your parents Mr Andrew Scott and Mrs Sharon Scott are currently on the loose.”
“I really don't understand what is going on at the moment, but I refuse to believe that they followed us to SouthRise city.”
“No one must know about your secret identity, I really don't know why you still ignored me and didn't change your name as I told you.”
“Your late father would kill me if anything happens to you before we complete the mission.” Mr Jackson Alfred said as he took a deep breath.
He was seated in the driver's seat of a fully reinforced military grade version of a never-seen-before Lamborghini STO.
“Mr Jackson, I choose to run away and hide from the Scott's family, that doesn't mean I should renounce my father's name.”
“The whole purpose of this mission is to keep his name alive right?”
“Why the heck then should I be changing my name to whatever it was you recommended?” Abel Scott immediately asked.
“Lord Abel Scott, I am really sorry for that, but you and I know that you are the only true heir left of the great Scott's family, Lord Ammon Vandel’s sons are just posers, should anything happen to you…”
“I will be forced to end my very life!” Mr Jackson Alfred said with some much determination in his voice.
“Mr Jackson Alfred, you will do no such thing.”
“Speaking of which, where the heck are you right now?” Abel Scott asked.
“I'm currently at the street leading to the super mall, is there any issue Lord Abel Scott?” Mr Jackson Alfred asked slowly.
“Not really, but we just got kicked out of Lawrence's family mansion by you know who.”
“That poor lady Natasha Lawrence, right?”
“Yes, she apparently thinks I'm worthless and she decided to throw myself, Sarah and Mrs Elena Lawrence out of the mansion.”
“I need you to find a seven star hotel and purchase it in my name immediately.”
“We are going to be needing a better place than this shit-hole lady Natasha Lawrence calls a mansion.” Abel Scott said as he watched Sarah Lawrence and her mom sit by the side of the street.
“Who the heck does Lady Natasha Lawrence really think she is?” He immediately added.
“Mister Abel, I think I have a better idea, and you are going to love it!”
“I recently recovered some documents from your dad's archive, it turns out Mr Andrew Scott has actually been to this City before now.”
“It turns out that your family, under the control of your dad, owns the Luxury brand called Lotus group and some chain of luxury villas not just far from here.”
“So I will advise you to bring Sarah Lawrence over to one of the mansions, it's the least you can do for the lady that risked everything for you, even her very own eyesight.” Mr Jackson Alfred said as he stared at his dashboard.
“You know what, Mr Jackson Alfred, you are very correct, Sarah Lawrence might not know that I'm the boy she saved that day at the prison morgue, but it doesn't really matter.”
“I will find a way to repay her for her kindness, all of it!”
“Even if it's the last thing I do.”
“Mr Jackson Alfred, I need you here immediately, so that you can take us to the villa already, it's getting pretty late.” Abel Scott said as he started heading towards Mrs Elena and Sarah Lawrence who were still wondering how to survive their current predicament.
“No issues, Lord Abel Scott, I know exactly what to do.” With that said, the phone was immediately hung up by Abel Scott.
Walking over to Sarah Lawrence, he held her by her hand and slowly whispered into her ears, “It's going to be okay.”
Ten minutes later, an Escalade SUV pulled up in front of the place where Abel Scott, Mrs Elena Lawrence and Sarah Lawrence were seated.
A man in a black suit and well polished Oxford luxury shoes slowly stepped out of the Escalade SUV.
He was accompanied by a lady that carried a black briefcase behind him.
“I'm sorry, Mrs Sarah Lawrence, we have been looking everywhere for you, we just came from the address that we had some years ago but it turns out you are no longer living at the Lawrence's family mansion…”
“I'm really sorry, who are you again?!” Mrs Elena Lawrence immediately asked as she stared askance at Mr Jackson Alfred.
“My name is Thomas…Wilson.”Mr Jackson Alfred lied immediately.
“Sarah Lawrence, your daughter had just won herself a luxury mansion from the Lotus group, I was sent here by the new owner…Mr Schmidt.” He said, staring at Abel Scott.
“Mr Schmidt would like you to take a look at the mansion and perhaps start living in it as soon as possible.”
Sarah Lawrence was immediately shocked.
“Mr Thomas Wilson, are you really sure about this?” Sarah asked.
“Yes I'm sure, if you don't mind I will take you people there immediately.” Mr Jackson Alfred said as he spared a glance at Abel Scott.
“Let's go check it out!” Sarah Lawrence said excitedly.
Mr Jackson Alfred immediately signalled and the lady helped Mrs Elena load up their bags into the boot of the Escalade SUV.
“We will be at the Lotus group mansion in no time.” Mr Jackson Alfred said as the car zoomed off.

CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR
Abel Scott adjusted his tie, the same tie Sarah had knotted for him. He stepped into the Vibe Corporation lobby clasping his fresh resume tightly.The receptionist's eyes were fixated on her screen, her finger clacking against the keyboard. Abel Scott cleared his throat in an attempt to register his presence. “Abel Scott, I'm here for the janitorial assistant interview,” his voice was soft and low.She looked up, her expression flat as the marble floor. “You again?” she muttered, flipping through a stack of paper.“Fill this paper and wait in that room,” she said, sliding across a form and pointing at the room on the other side of the hall. Abel Scott sat, his pen inscribing words against the paper. His phone buzzed. It was a text from Mr Jackson Alfred. “The acquisition of ABC corporation has been finalized, Vibe corporations and westbridge distributions are now under your control, Lord Abel Scott. Do you have any instructions?” Abel replied quickly. “Ensure I get the janitor jo
CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE
A black sedan rolled up in front of the apartment with two vehicles trailing it.“Good morning Abel” Sarah said, placing her lips on his cheeks.”Good morning mum, Good morning da,” she said, moving quickly to the door. A calm demeanor envelops her like armour. The driver stepped out of the sedan quickly. “Good morning, Madam Sarah.” He said, bowing slightly. She smiled faintly at the bodyguards and staff, masking the commotion inside her head.“Good morning, everyone,” Sarah said, slipping into the back seat. As the car sped past the high-rise buildings of the city to Ashton hills, she stared out the window, squeezing her phone. “I did not just see him, I humiliated him. You should see the shock on his face.” Lisa's words scraped through her mind, causing her to bite her lips. She turned her gaze from the window to the road in front of her. “Divorce him!!” Elena's voice rang through her head. “You are going forward, don't let this deadweight you call husband drag you down wi
CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO
Sarah glanced at the phone, her stomach tightened. She hesitated then swiped the phone to answer. “Hello?” Lisa's voice bellowed from the speakers.Sarah put the speaker so she and Abel Scott could hear everything. “Hello,” Sarah responded.A mocking laughter echoed through the speakers. “Well, cousin, I had the most interesting day. Guess who I saw at the interview panel today?” “You saw Abel.” Sarah's throat went dry. Lisa Lawrence scoffed a little harder. “No, I did not just see him, I humiliated him.” she laughed again. “You should have seen the shock on his face when he saw me. He froze like a deer caught in the headlights.” She added.“When I reminded everyone of the loser he is, he practically sank in his seat. Men!, his facial expressions were priceless” Lisa said, giggling really hard. “Lisa why would you do that, have you not caused enough trouble already?” Sarah said, her lips pressed together to stop her voice from shaking. Lisa laughed, “trouble?” she laughed again,
CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE
“Taxi, Taxi” Abel Scott waved. An old blue cab slowed to a stop. The driver rolled the window down“Where are you headed, sir?”“Take me to the Auburn apartments,” He said quietly, sliding into the back of the car. His chest was heavy, the vibe corporation building, the cold receptionist, the mocking laughter in the interview room, the smirk on Lisa’s face as she said “Well, well, look who crawled out”It all clogged his mind like a spider web that cannot be shaken off. He shut the taxi door muffling the noise of the city. For a moment, there was tranquility and a faint smell of gasoline. He leaned his head against the glass, staring blankly at the buildings rushing by. The voice in his head was louder than the horns outside. “Well, well, look who crawled out of the shadows” The words Lisa Lawrence struck deep pain into his heart.“What was Lisa doing on the interview panel?” “The vandels have not even purchased the company yet.”“She has the effrontery to show her face again aft
CHAPTER TWENTY
Abel Scott arrived at the vibe corporation office. The company he is applying to for the janitorial assistant position. As soon as he stepped into the parking lot, a purple Rolls-Royce parked in a spot across from him. He looked at the car without intending to and saw a young couple getting out of the car. The man was wearing a branded suit, looking very handsome and smart. Meanwhile, the lady was dressed in a flamboyant style. Her skin was glowing. As it turned out, the lady was Bianca Lawrence, twin sister to Lisa Lawrence and cousin to Sarah, his wife. And the man Alex vandel, the second son of lord Ammon vandel. Abel Scott's eyes flamed up. “What are they doing here?” He asked himself, confused. He couldn’t figure out why they were here but the best thing he could do was to avoid them because he had a greater plan for them.However, the more he tried to hide from them the more they were likely to see him. Bianca caught sight of him from the corner of her eyes. “Hi, Abel!”
CHAPTER NINETEEN
Elena was shouting in dismay “Abel Scott, that loser! He is such an embarrassment to this family! If you don’t divorce him now, you won’t be able to move forward!”“He is such a deadweight,” she added. “This is the perfect opportunity for us to get back on the good books of your grandma lady Natasha Lawrence” Elena's voice rising a little higher from her irritation at her daughter’s refusal. Sarah said calmly, “I don't need her approval for anything, I never have.” “You…” Elena growled angrily, her teeth digging into her lower lip.“What is so good about that loser? Why can’t you just divorce him? With your eyesight back and your new role as a CEO you can marry Jones.”Sarah Lawrence gave her mother a dead stare. “Jones? As in Jones Williams?"“Yes! Jones Williams! If you marry him, our family can hold our heads high again. Grandma would respect us. We would be welcomed back into the family.” Elena said, gently taking Sarah’s arms. “Think about it dear.” She added, her eyes desper
