“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 173: managing director
Chapter 173Three days later, Master Wilson summoned Sebastien and Isabelle to the Wilson family’s mansion just as he had promised and he ordered a compulsory family meeting to which he instructed the family members attend it. Miranda attended unwillingly , she really didn’t want to attend. But she also didn’t want master Wilson to get annoyed with her. Isabelle’s mother, Adeline, was also present at the meeting. “It’s nice to have you all gathered here without it necessarily being any special occasion. Given gatherings like this majorly happens when there’s a really special occasion” master Wilson addressed them. Miranda let out a silent scoff. “By the way, Theodore isn’t done with his program yet?” Master Wilson questioned, suddenly remembering Isabelle’s brother who was away to further his education. Adeline shook her head, “he isn’t back yet but he would be back very soon” “So, as most of us know, our family company was on the verge of being overthrown by the Chesterfield
Chapter 172: indeed true
Chapter 172“That has to be a wrong number,” Miranda said like she was so sure of what she was saying. Master Wilson glared at her, silently telling her to keep shut, then he walked closer so he could hear the conversation more audibly. “How are you doing?” Sebastien asked the manager. “I’m very well, thank you sir” the manager responded to him. “Skip the pleasantries and go straight to the point!” Miranda stated, getting impatient, “we don’t have all day!” Isabelle threw her a glare. “Okay. So, who requested that you free the Wilson’s family company and even compensate them?” Sebastien asked, going straight to the point. There was a long pause from the other side of the call. Miranda waited for his reply, hoping it’ll be a negative response. “Yes, we were instructed by you” the manager finally said. And then Sebastien ended the call. “There you have it, your answer” Sebastien said“I don’t want to believe that whatever he said was true!” Miranda contented strongly. “Shush!”
Chapter 171: dejected
Chapter 171 Miranda’s eyes widened in fear. She was going to get exposed right now. “You were lying to me all along??” Master Wilson asked with raised brows. “Miranda?!” Master Wilson exclaimed, questioning her too. “Tell them the truth right now, Kirk” Sebastien ordered once again. “I-I wasn’t behind the actions of the manager of Chesterfield investment company” Kirk Donovan stuttered with his head buried in shame. He held master Wilson so superiorly and didn’t want to lie to him that’s why he felt so embarrassed now that he’s been caught. When Miranda initially approached him, he had declined but when she mentioned she was sent by, Zara who he was indebted to, he didn’t second guess his decision. “Then why did you lie to me?!” Master Wilson questioned him angrily, his brows furrowed in fury. “It was beyond my control, sir.” Kirk Donovan tried to explain Master Wilson shook his head, “is this all a joke to you?! Is my time a joke??! I can’t believe I have wasted this much tim
Chapter 170: the truth
Chapter 170“Isabelle!” Master Wilson called out to her once again. “There isn’t any need, grandfather…” Miranda said, urging master Wilson to just award her the offer. “Shush! I gave you a chance to speak so Isabelle deserves equal privilege” master Wilson stood his ground. Miranda rolled her eyes, “whatever, you’ll soon see why I am telling you to not waste your time on her” “So, Isabelle. You may speak now”Master Wilson said, making a decision to ignore Miranda’s words for now. “Who do you think was responsible for the actions of Chesterfield investment company?” Master Wilson asked the question. “My husband, Sebastien, was responsible for their actions” she blurted before she could change her mind about answering the question. Miranda scoffed, “what does that retard know” she mumbled under her breath but it was still very audible in the quiet office. “So, you still believe your husband was behind it?” Master Wilson asked again, to confirm her answer and give her a second c
Chapter 169: Kirk Donovan
Chapter 169 The next day, Miranda began an active search for someone that she could present to master Wilson as the person behind the manager of Chesterfield investment company’s actions. She explained the situation on ground to her very close friend and her friend recommended someone who could be of help. “Kirk?!” Miranda had exclaimed when she heard the name her friend mentioned. “Yes, Kirk. He is a very good friend of mine” her friend explained. “Would he be willing to do this? I mean, Kirk is a multimillionaire, what could we possibly offer him?” Miranda questioned her friend. “Don’t worry about that, he owes me a favor. So, I’m sure he’ll gladly do it” her friend reassured her. Miranda felt relieved after that and stopped her search for whoever could be behind Chesterfield investment company’s action because she believed no one was behind it. And it will be quite easy for master Wilson to believe her because Kirk Donovan was an influential person in the society. Master Wi

Chapter 168Three days later,Miranda and Isabelle were summoned by master Wilson. By the time Isabelle got to master Wilson’s office, Miranda was already seated there. “I apologize for my late arrival” Isabelle said to master Wilson as soon as she walked into his office. Master Wilson waved it off, “no problem, no problem. It’s fine” “It’s not fine,” Miranda grumbled.Isabelle’s eyes darted towards Miranda but she didn’t say a single word before averting her gaze. “You know Isabelle is busy with work here. Stop making a fuss!” Master Wilson warned Miranda. “But I have a business interview to attend to as soon as I leave here and I have to be there on time” Miranda complained with a frown on her face. “Then stop complaining so we can begin as soon as possible.” Master Wilson said. Then after a few minutes he said, “alright. Let me see what you both have to offer after three days. Starting with you Miranda” master Wilson gestures towards Miranda. “Why does it have to be me?” M
