Chapter 4: Game on

That bastard is a cheater, because why would he agree to the divorce easily?

Lily complained, and for some reason, was disappointed and angry that Andrew didn't think twice before accepting the divorce.

She had expected him to beg, and bawl his eyes out asking for a second chance, but he didn't, and that surprised the hell out of her.

There was no other reasonable explanation she could think of, that made him agree to the divorce like that if not, that he had been cheating on her.

I hope I don't see that hoe of his, because I'm going to teach them both a lessonShe threatened, picking up her phone from the bed.

Babe, come and see, your ex is getting into the latest range rover Prado ?Mike called out , still peeping from the window, his gaze fixed on the car, till it went out of sight.

Don't take that puppet seriously, he's probably a driverLily mocked, her eyes fixed on the phone in her hands.

Oh, I never thought of that, I thought he had graduated to hijacking carsMike said, bursting into laughter as Lily joined him.

Babe, you know this would be the biggest moment of my lifeLily flung her phone on the bed and stood up to join Mike where he stood in just his briefs.

Babe, do you know the most exciting part? The mysterious chairman of A and U would be the one to personally present my money to me tomorrowLily giggled, her face litting up with smiles.

And that's not even all, I am going to be a fucking shareholder in the biggest company in the world!she squealed in delight, jumping on Mike's body, and in turn he grabbed her ass, pressing her body into his.

And before I forget babe, we need to invite your friends and business partners to come witness this day with me.

Of course, you are the star of the day, I will make sure to invite all the influential men I knowMike assured, pressing his lips on Lily's.

And like I told you, I will be going to A and U group to sign the partnership todayHe added

You can start going now babe, there is no time to waste Lily squealed in excitement, tightening her grip on Mike's shoulder.

                                   **

After hours of being on the road, a white range rover Prado finally came to a halt at the other side of the city.

A part known to house only the elites and influential men. No one dared enter without a permit card.

Amongst other exotic tall glass buildings stood the largest of them all.

It was none other than A and U building , the leading company in Nashville city and beyond with over 5 branches located at various locations around the world.

The white gates slide automatically letting the range rover in.

And as soon as they got to the private garage, a man in his mid 40s cladded in a black expensive suit, highlighted with speed and opened the car door for a younger man dressed in casual wear.

Just as Andrew was about to step out from the car, his phone vibrated, notifying an incoming call.

Sir, we found Benita. She is currently based at Ceal Veal city.

And it seems her financial situation is not good... According to our investigation, her company is now on the verge of bankruptcy.

What?! Send me every detail you have now.Andrew said with shaking voice.

He blamed himself for making such a stupid mistake to find the wrong person and wasted the whole three years.

But he hoped it was not too late to make up for her.

Suppressing his overwhelming emotions and taking a deep breath, he dropped the call and dialed another number.

Hello sir,Emily, his personal assistant, spoke up from the other end.

Emily, I need you to make a public announcement that the banquet is shifted to three days time, not tomorrow anymoreHe needed some time to meet that girl. And he had actually planned to cancel the banquet when he signed the divorce paper, but now he changed his mind.

He  was really curious of Lily's reaction when he appeared there, with Benita. And he was going to make her return everything that didn’t belong to her back to Benita!

Okay, Sir. The assistant replied.

Andrew Baron stepped out of the car as he headed inside his company- the A and U group.

But as he walked into the lobby, he sighted the last person he had expected to see again today.

Hi, Mr ex son-in-lawMike called out loudly, his lips twisting into a smirk

Andrew ignored him as he continued walking, not sparing him a glance.

He had important things to do. Wasting time on this trash was not on the list.You don't need to be scared of me, don't worry I won't get you kicked out ,Mike called out, quickening up his pace to reach Andrew.  

But with just a few steps away, he paused involuntarily as the memory of how Andrew held his neck and almost strangled him, flashed through his mind.  

It annoyed him that a man with no significance and way below his status , managed to intimidate him.

With one glance at both sides,  his confidence spiked up to the fullest, as he saw the security guards that were littered around,so he continued walking, stood in Andrew's front, blocking his path.

Andrew huffed out in annoyance and paused for a second

Wow, I never knew A and U allow species like you in hereMike taunted mockingly, his face covered in a smug smile.

You already know now,Andrew replied calmly, and made to continue walking.

Wait, wait.. Just hold on for a second, don't worry I won't order the security to bundle you out,  you can go in and apply for your cleaner Job, after all you need it to survive, I'm not that heartless to chase you out of somewhere you are privileged to be in Mike said in low mocking tone.

Anyways it would be so bad of me to not say thank you.Mike said, as Andrew raised his eyebrows questioningly, signaling him to say whatever it is he has to say .

I just wanted to thank you for easily handing over Olivia to me by agreeing to the divorce, I thought you would want to prove stubborn, but thank you, she is indeed good in all area, especially in bedMike said, intentionally drawing out the bed part.

Is that all? Andrew replied as calmly as ever, his voice not giving off any slightest hint of anger

Mike raised his eyebrows in confusion, his insides seething with anger that Andrew didn't give him the reaction he wanted.

Just the sight of the man standing before him annoyed him to death,and he couldn't hide his hate any longer.

Stop pretending! You think you are all that?Mike sneered glaring at Andrew contemptuously.

Do you know why I am here? I was representing my father to sign a collaboration worth millions of dollars with the A and U Group. "

And do you know how powerful the chairman of A and U Group is?Mike sneered, his voice dripping with mockery." He owns more than one hundred companies and A and U is only one of them. He even won numerous battles for the country.  And even the president wanted to marry his daughter to him and he declined! Now you know what it means to colllaborate with such a company, you idiot?"

Well, you do have quite a knowledge of me.Andrew chuckled lightly.

What? You?Mike asked, bursting into a laughter.

Are you saying you're the chairman? Hahaha! You are a piece of trash that could never amount to anything, and you dare stand there to talk rubbish!  " He said disdainfully, looking at Andrew as if he were a fool.

Beep!

The sound of an incoming text caught his attention as he took a quick glance at his phone.

It was from Lily : Babe, I just got the news that A and U shifted the banquet to 3 days and I just spoke with the event planner, they can set up our wedding a day after the banquet.

    Andrew decided he might as well eat first. The voucher was free. It wouldn’t make sense to waste it. And maybe after that—after some warm food in his stomach—he’d go home and forget how strange the day had been.Half an hour later, he found himself standing in front of the hundred floors building. One of the top hotels in Jashem. Even the entrance smelled expensive. A waiter in white gloves had come out before he even asked for help. “This way, sir,” the man had said. And Andrew had followed.He didn’t ask questions. He didn’t want to draw attention. Just a quiet meal. A quiet hour before he returned to whatever his life was.The waiter led him past the glass staircase, past the champagne-colored chandeliers, past people who didn’t look at him, because to them, he wasn’t even there. And just as Andrew reached the section with his table, his eyes moved to the far side of the room.And there she was. Anastacia.He froze. Not because he wasn’t used to surprises. But because nothing abo

  • Chapter 227: The Plot

    In a dimly lit room , Mr. Devon sat in his chair, back straight, hands resting on the armrest with the kind of practiced stillness that came from years of authority. The screen before him flickered with live news coverage, muted but vivid. His eyes didn’t blink much. His mind wasn’t watching the news. It was listening to what it wanted to hear in the silence behind the noise.The door creaked open with a hesitant knock that came too late. One of his men stood there, head slightly bowed, voice clipped short as he spoke. “Dr. Jackson is asking for you, sir.”Mr. Devon did not move his head. His voice was calm. Almost disinterested. “Let him in.”He didn't need to look. He didn’t have to. He already knew Jackson would enter without waiting for permission, as he always did.Jackson stepped in, shoes echoing faintly against the polished floor, and stopped only once he reached the center of the room. His brow was furrowed in a way that made him look important. But Devon could see right thr

  • Chapter 226: The Wheels Of Revenge

    Amik had gotten home that night,his shoulders heavy with the weight of the day’s humiliation. The air inside his penthouse was thick with tension, the silence broken only by the sharp clicks of his polished shoes against the marble floor. His mind replayed the scene at the lounge —Andrew’s cold smirk, the way the other executives had turned their backs as if he were nothing. The memory burned like acid in his chest. His friend, Daniel, was already there, pacing the length of the living room like a caged animal. The television screen flickered with muted news coverage—Amik Corporation’s stocks plummeting, analysts dissecting his downfall with clinical detachment. Daniel’s face was pale, his fingers twitching at his sides as if he wanted to punch something. The moment Amik stepped in, Daniel whirled around, his eyes wild. “What the hell happened, Amik? What did I see on TV?” His voice was a blade, slicing through the quiet. Amik exhaled, his fingers tightening around the glass

  • Chapter 225 : Had I known Is A Brother To Mr. It's Too Late !

    His voice, once proud and sharp, broke down into pleading. “I-I’m sorry,” Amik stammered, hands trembling, “Please… I didn’t know… If I had known… I swear, I wouldn’t have…” He looked up at Andrew like a drowning man begging for rope. “I was wrong. I was so wrong. Please forgive me. Just one chance, just one.” But Andrew didn’t move. He didn’t speak. He didn’t show the rage they had mocked, or the power they had denied. He only looked at Amik with the same quiet calm that had shaken them all to the core. It was that stillness that made it unbearable. “I didn’t know,” Amik repeated, now more desperately. “I didn’t mean it. I didn’t know who you were!” Amik begged harder, his voice growing more frantic. He promised anything, everything—money, favors, loyalty—but deep down, he knew it was too late. It was all his fault . His voice was shaking, words tumbling over each other, but Andrew’s expression didn’t change. There was no mercy in his eyes. He had given him chan

  • Chapter 224 : Dropped To His Knees

    Amik laughed, loud and careless, the sound ringing through the room. “Don’t tell me you actually believed what this lowlife just said?” He tilted his head, smiling as if he had just witnessed the most ridiculous lie of the century. His words dripped with mockery, his voice full of arrogance. He spoke like a man too sure of the air he breathed, too unaware that it could be taken from him. He looked around for agreement, waiting for the others to join in, but his laughter began to echo back at him. The room didn’t laugh with him this time. There was a pause. A long one. Then a voice snapped through the silence like a crack in glass. "He was telling the truth!" one of the men shouted back, his voice cracking with urgency, and instantly, every pair of eyes in the room jerked toward the television mounted on the wall. And just like that, nothing else in the room mattered anymore. The screen lit up with the red-and-white logo of a news station known for breaking high-priori

  • Chapter 223 : Turn On The Goddamn TV !!

    Andrew slowly took the phone away from his ear, his thumb still resting on the screen. He didn’t blink. He didn’t move. His face stayed calm—too calm. But the room around him was not. Suddenly, loud laughter exploded in the air, sharp and mocking. It was cruel. It was on purpose. Each laugh was louder and meaner than the last, filled with pride and disbelief. They weren’t just laughing at what he said. They were laughing at the idea that someone like him could say it and actually believe it. One of them clapped loudly, almost choking in his amusement. “You hear that?! He cancelled the contract,” he managed to gasp, slapping the armrest beside him. “The bloody contract! What’s next? He owns Jashem too?!” Another man snorted and leaned in, eyes glinting with ridicule. “Only the chairman can make that call. And last I checked, the chairman doesn’t wear cheap jeans and second-hand shoes.” The laughter doubled. It wasn’t just sound—it was assault. “You must really enj
