“Sebastien, I have to leave now”

Her mother had called her and Isabelle didn't want to linger. She had to look for a way to get something presentable for her grandfather, Master Wilson, in order to avoid her mother's wrath. 

Isabelle informed the nurse she kept in charge of Sebastien that she was leaving. 

Not so long after Isabelle left, Sebastien suddenly quivered and sat up, straightening his head. He widened his eyes in shock and exhaled deeply.

“What am I doing here?” he thought to himself. 

In the next second, he clutched his head with his hands, an excruciating headache assaulted him as a sea of memories flooded his mind. 

********************************

“Sebastien you've been called upon to lead the war against Alemand and protect the malinfania as the Son of the famous god-of-war family. We trust you wouldn't let us down” 

“Don't you dare disappoint us”

********************************

“God of war, we've been fighting and we've never lost any battle. We think it's high time you get promoted to another rank” 

“God of war, we've won the battle! We've won! we've won!”

************************************

“Even the president hasn't given us as much victory as Sebastien's family has. I think they need to be voted in as the president”

“Yes! We need to make them more dominant in malinfania” 

******************************

“Alemand empire has suggested a ceasefire so that alemand and malinfania could be at peace. If Sebastien continues in this war he might lose his life as I have overheard. Alemand empire wants peace but only at the condition that Sebastien would kill himself”

Sebastien's family was worried when they heard this as they didn't want to lose their eldest son and at the same time malinfania needed to be at peace. 

“I have a suggestion,a medicine that'll fake his death…and hide his identity and alemand and malinfania will be at peace. A win-win situation”

Sebastien's family agreed, unknown to them the medicine was meant to make him handicapped.

On the night of the wedding, the medicine took effect and Sebastien became handicapped and the news spread round the town which made his wife's whole family a laughing stock in tabia city, salomia member state (another state distant from Gatto)

And that was the beginning of their hatred for Sebastien.

***************************

It was Isabelle's touch that stimulated his brain and brought him back to his normal state of mind.

Sebastien fumed in anger and clenched his fist in an attempt to resist the urge to punch a wall. That's how angry he was.

“The president's family! Lucas! I can remember he was the person that gave me the medicine that day. It's time I pay them a visit and get my revenge for what they have put me through. Fortunately my identity as god of war still remains hidden…” 

Sebastien remained calm after a while but he was extremely bitter and his heart longed for revenge. 

He knew Isabelle would have suffered because of him. She chose to stay by him despite all odds.

And she never complained. She was indeed a good wife. 

Sebastien picked up his phone and called his most trusted man.

The call got through and his friend picked on the first ring

“Leo, it's me”

Loud music echoed from the phone. It was obvious that Leo was having a night out. 

Leo's excited voice was heard “Boss, is it really you? Where have you been?! We weren't permitted to locate you. If not I'm sure we would have found you since”

“Don't worry, I'm fine now. I had some issues but I'm okay now” Sebastien assured her.

“Who tried to harm you, Boss?! Tell me the person and I'll locate them and end their entire generation.” Leo said angrily

“It's okay. I told you I'm fine now” Sebastien snapped. He didn't want another person to be involved in this matter. He wanted to deal with the president's family alone.

“Just wanted to let you know that I'm Alive and I'll be coming to visit soon . That's why I called”

“Alright” Leo replied.

 and with that Sebastien dropped the phone.

*********

Meanwhile, at master Wilson's mansion the birthday celebration was currently ongoing. Everywhere was beautifully decorated.

Almost all the members of the Wilson family were present. Except Theo, Isabelle's brother.

After a while, it was time for the presentation of gifts by the grandchildren. Master Wilson sat on a luxurious leather seat as each of his grandchildren presented their gifts.

Everyone gave master Wilson their gifts and when it got to Isabelle's turn she brought out a green small hand knitted scarf and presented it to Master Wilson.

“Grandfather, I spent nights without sleeping just so I could make this for you and I even made it in your favorite color. I hope you love it”

People began to stretch their necks to get a view of the gift Isabelle was presenting to Master Wilson. When they saw what it was they couldn't control their laughter. What a miserable gift they thought.

Miranda, Isabelle's cousin, snickered and said, “out of all the things you could give grandfather you decided to give him a scarf. How are we even sure you made it? It looks used or what do you guys think” Miranda asked two of her friends who stood beside her and they immediately agreed with her. 

“It isn't used! I spent precious time knitting this. I know the effort I kept into this” Isabelle tried to defend herself.

Miranda walked closer to Isabelle and took the scarf from her using her index and thumb as if she was afraid of getting dirt on her hand. She then sniffed it and said, “I said it, it even smells unclean. This is unsafe for grandfather!”

“Enough, enough” master Wilson collected the hand knitted scarf and kept it with the rest of the gifts. 

Just then Miranda's phone rings and she picks up and tells the person to come inside the hall and that she's waiting for him. She looked so excited as she described the way into the main hall.

    Chapter 157 The next day, Lucas became increasingly worried when Miranda didn’t get back to him like she promised she would. He came to a conclusion that she probably didn’t have the money. Hence, the start of his dilemma. He considered going to meet the president for funds or waiting for the president to reach out to him concerning the delay in the execution of the task but both of those options will warrant him getting scolded by the president. A few months back, the president had granted him a loan that was sufficient enough to carry out the task to completion but Lucas invested a part of the money into getting items that he would need for his business. The money ended up being insufficient and a shiver ran down Lucas’ spine as he imagined going back to the president to request for more funds. Lucas decided to give Miranda a few more days. ‘She is probably sourcing for the money’ he thought to himself. He knew Miranda would want to go to any extent to help him. After

I genuinely appreciate”Sebastien nodded, “but, I must get the video Miranda has of you in return” Sebastien stated firmly, a silent threat underlying his voice, “you are not deserving of anything free from my wife and I” Sebastien said in a tone of finality Tony Wilson nodded.

  • Chapter 155: Against His Will

    Chapter 155Tony Wilson turned to look at Isabelle as she walked in, “hello my cousin” Tony Wilson greeted Isabelle as she approached them. “Cut the crap” Isabelle hissed as she walked past Tony Wilson and settled onto the couch right next to her husband. Tony Wilson had an expression of shock on his face while Sebastien had a proud smile planted across his face. For Tony Wilson, he was shocked because Isabelle was always one to shy away and flinch at the sound of his voice but hearing her statement coupled with her actions made him believe that she had completely changed. And it was scary. Sebastien on the other hand was proud of his wife, Isabelle. He had always loved the feisty side of Isabelle and he was glad she was letting it show more and more now. He wrapped his arm around Isabelle’s waist and she leaned into him. “What are you going to gain from this?” Sebastien demanded quietly. “Let’s leave that for now” Tony Wilson said, trying to deviate and remove all forms of atten

A way that didn’t involve him giving her three million dollars because that could pull him back into debt. Tony Wilson gasped when he remembered the reason Sebastien and Isabelle visited earlier and how master Wilson adamantly refused to believe Isabelle and Sebastien’s claim. He started having a rethink, ‘what if Sebastien and Isabelle were right about Miranda. What if that was the reason she left’He made a mental note to reach out to Isabelle later that day in hopes of finding out more about the claims they have against Miranda. ****************Miranda slept an happy woman that night. The thought that she would be 3 million dollars richer made her overjoyed. If there’s one thing Miranda enjoyed, it had to be taking advantage of people and whatever difficult situation they might be in.

    Chapter 153After saying that, Miranda made her way to her room and Tony Wilson spent the first few hours, after hearing that in his room. He was scared because he knew there was a strong chance of Miranda exposing him. Tony Wilson immediately felt relieved after he sent the money he was owing to Mason and then paid the debt he was owing the loan company. He slept with a happy man that night knowing it would be difficult for master Wilson to trace the transaction made on his account. Tony’s only problem was Miranda and he needed to figure out a way to make sure she doesn’t expose him. He really hoped she had no concrete evidence. ********************A few days passed and there were days where master Wilson felt really worried and determined to find out the person that tampered with his bank account, but it was all to no avail.

They were just managing the funds needed to finance the Wilson’s family company so he could not understand the debit of six million dollars without any further details, including the account name. “What’s wrong, grandfather?” Tony Wilson feigned ignorance as he came to sit beside mas
