Noah smiled,placing his hand on her shoulder. “Perhaps it's from one of your secret admirers. ”
“Secret admirer? No one knows me I've spent the last few years within the confine of my house.” Listening to her speak with pain, he sighed. “All I need now is a source of income.” “That reminds me, I also overheard some prominent person discussing a vacant job position in Top Notch Group.” He added, “You can apply, who knows you may be lucky.” “Did you just mention Top Notch Group?” Rieka doubted. She knew a lot about Top Notch Group, getting a job there is influenced by the rich's wealth and connections. Top Notch Group was a company known worldwide, having controlled the business world in Linton City for decades. Noah smirked. “Yeah, you heard me right.” Rieka concluded, “Getting a job with Top Notch Group is not as easy as it sounds.” She gave a mischievous laugh. “Okay, but there's no harm in trying! So give it a thought.” Preparing dinner, Rieka headed back to the kitchen while Noah decided to take a stroll. All Rieka was after at the moment was to get a job, encouraged by Noah's word, she'll give a try at Top Notch Group. With that, her family would respect her more and would never downgrade her. Noah arrived at a small bar located a few minutes away from their residence. He took a seat and lit a cigarette. He took out his phone and dialed a number. “I'm at the venue, let's meet.” Although he doesn't like to use his power as the supreme ruler, he has to for the sake of Rieka. He doesn't want to ever see her sad. Minutes later, a man in his late fifties, dressed in a suit arrived at the bar. “General Noah.” “Immediately he stood before Noah, he fidgeted, sweating profusely. In Linton City, he was the overall head and had the final say over the affairs of Top Notch Group. His name was Brucy Kings After receiving a call from him, Brucy investigated who the call came from. He was standing before the supreme ruler of Fristico. No one dares go against his order and see the sun of the next day. He conquered all his battles. General Noah was accorded respect at its peak. He can't be compared to an ordinary man. He wasn't just a General but also a supreme ruler. Still fidgeting, Brucy couldn't help but wonder if he had trespassed. “Take a deep breath, Brucy Kings.” Noah gulped down a shot that was on the table. Gazing at the man before him, he cleared his throat and said politely. “Have a seat.” “Thank you, sir.” Brucy sat. His legs were shaking uncontrollably. He wondered why he got a sudden and urgent appointment with a legend. “Rieka Fullams, my wife, will be at Top Notch Group tomorrow. Her purpose is to seek a job opportunity and give her maximum attention. You know what to do.” Brucy gave a loud exasperated breath and a smile pricked the corner of his lips. “Alright, Supreme Ruler. Even if she wants to become a director, it will be granted on your order.” He giggled, “Let's take it gradually. Rieka Fullams is her name.” “Yes, sir.” “That would be all for now. You may leave now.” “Thank you, sir.” With sweat dripping around his face, Brucy hurriedly left at the speed of light as he had escaped from a predator. Being a member of the Kings family, he was in charge of the Top Notch Group in Linton City. The top three prominent families: Grichy, Ariel, and Swelvy dare not get on his nerves but that was not the case when he met Noah. After Brucy left, Noah headed back home. The house was still and quiet, Rieka must have fallen asleep. In his room, he sat on his bed and pulled out a picture. On it was him and his family members. Five years ago, the Kendrick's controlled the business affairs in Linton City. He was the last child and only 18 years then. Within that year, his mother brought a woman to work as a housekeeper. She was Fiona Grichy. She pretended to be a housekeeper so she could have access to the Kendrick's villa. She maneuvered her way into Noah's father's bed, accusing him of rape and that she was pregnant for him. The Kendrick family legacy was shattered and became a mockery. Months later, Fiona made a complaint against his grandfather, accusing him of attempted murder. His grandfather was so upset that it led to a shoot in his high blood pressure. She didn't attempt to save him, instead, she closed his nose. She told everyone else that he died of heartache cox no one was around to rush him to the hospital. After the death of his grandfather, the Grichys, Ariel, and Swelvys united and kidnapped Kendrick's family. They forced them to hand over all the family assets to them. After they collected their assets, they tortured each member of the family to death. Noah rested his back on the bed, tears rolling down his cheeks. The Grichys, Ariel, and Swelvys terminated the Kendrick family, thanks to the bait they used; Fiona Grichy. “I'll avenge the death of my family. Grichys, Ariel, and Swelvys will dance to the tone of the music they once played. " Suddenly, Noah's phone buzzed. He answered the call. “Supreme Ruler” “Address me as Noah. We are not in Fristico.” “Alright! Kendicles Group, belonging to the Grichy’s, will be having a celebratory party tonight. Kendicles and Top Notch Group have signed a permanent deal. Henceforth, Kendicles will have early access to Top Notch Group deals before letting the other groups and companies get to know. Senior Grichy is also turning seventy today. The celebration is a huge one.” “Kendicles?” “Yes, Noah!” Noah smirked. Kendicles was the Kendrick family business. Now, the Grichys have taken full charge of it. Filled with anger, He stood up fast. “Andy, Be at my house now!” He stepped out of the house, with intention to wait for Andy at the entrance. Lo, there was a vehicle waiting outside with a light-skinned man sitting in the driver's position. Noah walked up and got into the car. “How did you get here so fast? Or have you been stalking me?” “Not at all.” “Are you sure about all you said on the phone?” “Yes, “We have a party to attend. I'll offer them the best gift ever.”

Minutes passed by and the groom was nowhere to be found.Lois covered her face in shame and cursed inwardly.‘Rieka isn’t a lucky child. Just imagine the dignitaries present at this wedding and yet the groom is not present.’‘Could it be someone is trying to humiliate my daughter?”The guests were tired and a voice rang out coldly.“Is this a scene in a movie?”Soon whispers filled the air.“We’ve been waiting for long, let’s just leave.”“The groom must have eloped.”Only the soldiers present in the hall remained calm.Just ten, they heard a blaring siren approaching.Soon, silence filled the air again.Tears were already welling in Rieka’s eyes. She bowed her head slightly in shame.A man cladded in his soldier uniform with many stars on it approached the podium and whispered to the clergyman.The man was the Grand Commander.At this point, the Grand Commander held the microphone, and happily, he said.“Today, we have two celebrations. Permit me to welcome the new Chief of Army Staf

Noah smiled, “Sincerely, she owns a dear place in my heart.” With a serious expression, Noah asked. “Do you think getting hitched with her again is a good idea?”Andy nodded. “Of course, she’s the only woman you’ve ever loved.”“Okay! Let’s have a quiet walk then.”Meanwhile, at the Fullams’ residence.“Can’t you talk sense to your daughter? Is this how she wants to end her life?”Lois uttered coldly as she looked at Jack.Jack tilted his head.“It is her life; her choice and I cannot influence her decision because you want me to.”Lois widened her lips and asked. “Are you serious?”Coldly, Rieka said. “Mom, I have a lot to deal with. What is all this about?”“If you wait from now till infinity, Noah will not welcome you into his life. Beauty fades, you have to give another man a chance. I’ve spoken to some rich folks and they all agreed to get married to you not minding that you are a divorcee.”After saying that, Lois angrily left.Rieka stared at the space. Thoughts of Noah grippe
CHAPTER 184
“What?”Santos expressed and gave a mocking laugh. “Who do you think you are?”Just then, he pulled out a gun and pointed it at Noah.Andy and Giddy also pulled out their guns and pointed at Santos.“I have nothing against you. I can see your greed and selfish interest is what is making you want the position of the Chief of Army staff at all cost.”Slowly, Noah approached Santos.“One more step and I’ll pull the trigger.” Santos roared.Noah sighed and he took another step. Bang!Santos pulled the trigger.Swiftly, Noah dodged it.Thank goodness no one was standing behind him.“All that happened here has been recorded. It would be used against you. You are not even worthy to be called a soldier.”Noah uttered with a frown.“Against me? We’ll see about that.”Santos said confidently.“No matter what, being soldiers, we are one,” Noah said as his eyes scanned through everyone present. For no just cause, Santos Junek wants to get rid of me. From his action, you all can see that he is n
CHAPTER 183
At that moment, Santos picked up his phone and placed a call.“Hi Santos, is anything the matter? You hardly call me.”“Jacob, I can see you know me well. We need to meet tonight, it's urgent.”Jacob was a high-ranked soldier and he was a member of the military council.All along, Jacob has been the one giving information to Santos about all that was happening because Santos handsomely rewarded him. Jacob was also a close friend of the former Chief of Army Staff.Now, he felt something was happening and he couldn’t figure it out. He had to hear from Jacob.Nevertheless, Jacob had assured him that he would become the next Chief of Army staff.Meanwhile, at the Supreme Ruler’s residence in the military base.Noah, Andy, and Giddy were standing.Noah rubbed his forehead and said, “This is more complicated than I had imagined. I don’t want to get rid of anyone but I can’t help but defend myself.”“I have a suggestion.” Giddy paused. Then he continued, “Let us visit Santos. Not to harm him
CHAPTER 182
Noah glanced at the Grand Commander. The news about who will become the next Chief of Army was yet to be announced publicly.“I have an urgent assignment to do here and it has to be kept a secret. Apart from all of us here, who witnessed my arrival, no one must know that I have returned.”Noah was led to a large room. It was the Supreme Ruler’s room in Fristico.Ever since Noah left, no one had dwelled in the room. However, the maids always kept it tidied daily.Noah freshened up and sat on the couch as he stared at the space.Knock, Knock, Knock.Some knocked on the door.Noah had already made it clear that he wanted to be left alone till he said otherwise.Who then was knocking on the door?With a frown, Noah went to open the door.Noah welcomed a man and a woman in.“You, so you had plans of coming too. Why didn’t you just say it? Did you have to make it a surprise?”Noah said with a smile beaming on his face.“I had to come along with her. We can’t just leave you. You need us mor
CHAPTER 181
“Santos Junek?” Lois replied with a smile.“I have never heard of that name before. Why will he take interest in me without approaching me for once?” Rieka said with an arched brow.Lois sighed, “It’s possible you’ve not been paying attention to other men because of Noah. He gave me his card so anytime you are ready to see him, it is just a call away. I also heard he is a military man. From the convoy I saw accompanying him, I can confidently say he is far richer than Noah. Getting hitched with him will make Noah regret ever treating you in this manner.”“Hmm!” Rieka reasoned with what Lois said. A thought of revenge crept into her heart.Why was Rieka having such thoughts? Having a relationship with someone wasn’t by force.“Give me his card, I’ll call him. I want to get some information from him.”Rieka asked politely.Lois picked a card that was on the table and handed it to Rieka.So fast, Rieka picked up her phone and called the number which was on the card.“Hi, It’s Rieka.
