Chapter 7
Edwin took out a golden bank card from his purse, with the word ‘Emily’ written in black on the background. He held it low in his hands.“Young master, this is a special card made by our Portland conglomerate. All expenses under the conglomerate are free. There’s also a credit limit of 1 billion dollars and the password is your birthday.”“Please use it first.”Andre hesitated a bit before taking the card.“What about my mother?” Andre asked.“Madam is fine and hoping to see you face to face someday,” Edwin answered as he lowered his head.There was a short silence before Andre finally spoke.“Tell my mother not to worry about me. Tell her to fix a convenient day for us to eat within the range of next week.”“Yes, yes master,” Edwin replied as he watched Andre walk away, then stopped a taxi.Edwin knew his madam would rejoice greatly upon hearing his son's request.~~~Getting in the taxi, Andre breathed a sigh of relief.17 years of hardship of hardship had passed and it was time to make a change.First, he needed to fix his appearance and get some clothes.He apprised the taxi driver of his intended locationand he was driven there.Arriving at a clothing store, Andre stood confidently watching his reflection from the glass door, his eyes shielding some thoughts.He sauntered with a bright smile crawling on his oval face.The sales attendant rushed over to his side with a smiles on her face. “You’re welcome to Fenti stores.”“This way sir.” She gestured.Sophia! Andre read from the tag on the sales attendant chest.“Sir, what would you like to get from us?”“Clothes and shoes!” Andre chimed.Andre walked gently after the lady, answering her questions.“What brands, sir?”“Louis, Armani, Gucci, Adidas, yes, and any expensive brand.”The lady nodded and led Andre to a section where expensive brands were displayed.Andre took his time to select the clothes of his choice, before walking out of the section. He bumped into Yvonne and Willow Smith on his way to the payment section.“Look who we have here,” Yvonne let out a taunting cry. “A pathetic ex-husband.”Andre ignored her, finding his way out of her sight when he was roughly pushed back. She tried to demean him but the words hitched in her throat after meeting Andre’s pair of glaring eyes.She changed her words. “What are you doing here? Are you stalking me?” She rolled her eyes on him.Andre ignored her as if she were a non-existent variable and strolled away.Yvonne didn’t stop at that as she chased him down to the cashier's desk.“Oh, you saw the spree online that I was goin' to shop my wedding dress, and you rushed down here to stalk me?”Yvonne became irritated and pissed when Andre ignored her. How dare a mere scumbag like him ignored her?“Yvonne, you should leave that good-for-nothing boy, and let go on our shopping spree.” Smith urged but was waved off by Yvonne.Yvonne's mouth even dropped open when she beheld a golden violet card in Andre’s grasp. She grabbed it fiercely and stared at it in bewilderment.“Where did you steal this from?” She questioned with a wary glance.Andre stared at her in silence, and said, “Give that to me.”“No, you have to tell me where you stole this from!” Yvonne fired, her eyes scrutinizing the information on the card.‘Emily Lan-Spen…’ she read out with her furrowed brow.Emily? Why would Andre possess a golden card that wasn’t his? Was this given to him by his sugar mummy?“Just two days after our divorce and you’re already working as a gigolo for a wealthy woman, or should I say you stole it?”“Give that to me! Do not invite problems with your hands.” Andre caveated in a stern tone as he glared at her.“I’m not giving it to you!” She yelled. “Attention, please!”Yvonne drew the attention of the security, bystanders, the sales attendant, and the cashier to their ongoing saga.“I think someone might implicate you if he pays with this stolen card!” Yvonne raised the card above her head.And everyone gasped at the sight of the card. The golden card was a rare card given to only billionaires who were worth more than 800 billion dollars and with a lot of billion assets to their names.Andre was cast a judgmental look, his outfits being taken into consideration.Nah!They shook their head, he wasn’t worth a diamond card talk more a golden one. He must’ve stolen it.“Yes! The cops should be called ASAP!”“How could such a man acquire such a huge asset in his hand?”They cursed hard at Andre.“How do you know I’m not the owner of the card?” Andre inquired with bloodshot eyes and a deep tone,“Well, who wouldn’t know? Even the blind would testify to this.” Yvonne said, pointing to the ‘Emily’ which was written in black on the background of the card.“Who did you steal this from? Who’s the owner?” Yvonne ignored Andre's pair of glaring eyes, further engaging him in a prolonged talk which prompted Andre to grab the card from her grasp aggressively.“He should be arrested! He must’ve stolen the card!” Yvonne cried out.“If care is not taken with the way you are screaming, I think you might develop a goiter.” Andre mocked.“Madam, you should take it easy. How about, he inserts the card in the point of sale, and Input the correct password? If he gets it right, he will be refer to the Economic Financial Crime Commission, and if he doesn’t get the password correctly, he will be arrested and arraigned for court over theft.” A man in a swanky suit suggested from the crowd.“Agreed?” The man added to his words.“No, I think this is a besmirch of character, if I got it right, she’s going to jail. Three months in jail won’t be too much, right?” Andre grinned as he fixed his face on Yvonne.

Chapter 43“What is that?” Sasha demanded, curiosity glimmering in her eyes.Andre shoved the phone into his pocket. “What?” he asked, putting on a tired look.“You seemed to be troubled when you were checking your phone,” Sasha said in a low voice.“Oh, nothing much.” he shook his hands in the air dismissively. “Seems like you're okay now. You're no longer having that fatigued look on your face anymore,” he said, smiling.“Yes. Still tired tho but with a little sleep I know I will be alright,” she told him.Andre decided not to bother his wife anymore as he watched her rest peacefully. Her eyes were slightly open. Andre placed her palm in his, giving it a soft squeeze.“Do you want me to tell you a story?” Andre asked.And she nodded, a small warm smile spreading across her lips.“Make it interesting,” she told him in a strangled whisper, winking at him.Andre flashed her a quick smile and sat properly at the back of his heels. “Once upon a time in country X there lived a wealthy ma

Chapter 42“What if you tell grandpa? What's he going to do to me? Kick me out?” Badmus sneered. “You probably aren't dumb enough to think grandpa would kick me out when I’m doing him a favor.” “Grandpa knows about this?” Sasha asked with tears lacing her voice. “You’re lying uncle.” she cackled into tears, breaking down.“Stop nibbling over a spilled milk, Sasha. We already told you what to do if you want your mother saved.” he stopped talking, nodding his head slowly.“One, divorce him. Two, talk to the company to give us the contract back else your mother will never be taken care of.” Andre stepped forth, reaching for Sasha with his elongated hands which wrapped around her waist. “Your mother will be fine. Don't mind them.” Sasha lifted her head, with rage cackling through her face. “Fine? With what? You think your words will just get my mother healed or pay her medical bills?” “I thought your husband was a magician who could wake the dead. Why don't you tell him to heal your m

Chapter 41“Know?” They looked at him belittled. It's better if you just get out of here before we call the security on you.” “Is this how you treat your customers?” Andre asked in a low voice, even though he was already getting agitated.“No. But that's how we treat random strangers or killers who disguise themselves as customer to spy on the hospital or our client,” they answered him.“I’m related to her. You could have asked me what our relationship was. Not asking me to get out.”They let out a dry laugh. “Well, if you're related to her. You don't have to ask us questions. The doctor in charge of her ward would’ve come here to welcome you.” Andre swallowed and realized it was a waste of time, standing here to argue with the nurses when his wife was missing.He picked out his phone from his pocket and dialed Joe’s number. “Joe, I want you to text me my wife’s address.”“You're married, sir?” Joe asked with a hint of disbelief in her tone.Andre rolled his eyes. “Don’t pretend li

Chapter 40“Did you end up going to the hospital, darling?” Andre asked with surprise lacing his voice.“Yes. I feel so pressured. I was confused. I could iron things out with them, but I was fooling myself.” She bursts into tears, her sob filling the air.“Don't cry. Breathe in and out. I need you to calm yourself. Wipe off the tears on your face and go back home.” Andre said over the line in a calm tone.“What about my mother? God I can't imagine seeing the life support being pulled off her.” Her voice trembled over the line.Andre sighed, his eyes fluttering shut in frustration. “Just have faith. Everything is going to be okay.” “Alright. I’ll visit my mother first before going home.” Sasha said.“Where’s the hospital? Can I come?” Andre asked. He really wants to know Melissa Roland. His mother had spoken badly of her and if she was somehow connected to the ugly incident that led to the demise of his family twenty years ago, he needed to know her.He needs to ensure she's back on
No, please
Chapter 39Badmus gestured with his hands for Sasha to remain calm. “Easy girl…” He lets out a small laugh. “To be frank I'm not really here to negotiate with you. I want to inform you that if we pay compensation for breaching the contract, then we go bankrupt, and your mother's medical fees?” he rolled his eyes, stifling a laugh.Sasha flared up. “What are you going to do with my mother, uncle? Don't you fucking threaten my mother!” Drake snapped from a corner. “Don't you dare speak to my father in such a way!” Sasha paused, her chest rising and falling. It was obvious she was striving to keep her anger in check. “Then tell your dad to let go of my mother. Tell him to keep my mother out of his dirty game. I don't care if the company goes bankrupt or not. I’m not sure if I'm a part of this family. I just want to be alone with my husband.” she heaved, her breath filling the entire air. “Is that too much?” “Of course, I’ll let go of your mother by cutting off her allocated medical bi
What do you want me to do?
Chapter 38Andre rushed to the door after hearing Sasha’s scream in a blink of an eye but stopped, a deep frown settling on his face at the sight of Drake dragging Sasha.“How dare you!” Andre bellowed, yanking Drake’s hands off Sasha, gripping his hands with anger spiking in my eyes.Drake shuddered and staggered but was quick to compose himself. He snickered at me. “What?” His brows raised at me. “You lowlife let go of my fucking hands.” He yammered, but I was unperturbed by his cries. My hands were tightly wrapped around his wrists.“I’m warning you.” His voice grew agitated but I never gave a damn. He started it first by disrespecting my wife. “Let go of my hands or I_”I intercepted him. “Next time you disrespect me by touching my wife…” I paused to glare at him, he felt threatened and intimidated by my aura.Before I could pronounce my words, Sasha’s voice cut through the tensions that enveloped the air. “Please Andre just let go of him.” She begged.My gaze flickered to her and
