HIDDEN BILLIONAIRE HEIR

Chapter 13

Two of the security men were about the step forward when one of them stopped his colleagues. “Sir, I know him. He is the healer I told you about.” The security guard went forward. “Sir. Whatever he had done to you. Please forgive him.”

Austin furrowed his brow as he watched the security guard beg on his behalf. He glanced at the name tag. “Gabriel, there is no need to beg him. He would face the consequences of his actions when the time comes.”

Gabriel was stunned; he couldn’t believe the man he was trying to plead for was acting proud.

“You heard what he said, and you want me to let this slide. I can’t, you know what. I want you two to beat him until he can’t walk again,” he turned to Gabriel, “As for you, you are suspended, and your two months’ salary seized.”

Gabriel’s eyes shined in disbelief; he found it difficult to believe the chancellor would do this to him; he wished he never uttered a word.

He went to his knees, “Please, sir. Don’t do this to me. I have families to feed.”

Anthony sneered, “You should have thought about it before you decided to go against my order.”

The other security men were scared after what they had witnessed. They wouldn’t want their salaries to be seized.

Gabriel’s blood drained from his palm, and cold sweat dropped from his forehead.

Austin remained calm, despite the scene that was unfolding before him.

Just when the guards were about to take a step forward. “Come with us.” One of them said, as he gripped Austin’s hand.

“You don’t want us to start your punishment here.” The other man said,

The door creaked open, with people being pushed inside the office.

Anthony was taken aback by the faces before him.

“What’s going on here.” He asked in an authoritative tone.

Ryan Daniel stepped inside the office and tilted his head for Austin. “Young master, I have brought them as instructed.”

Anthony’s jaw dropped, same with the security guards. They were stunned to witness some like Ryan Daniel bowing before the man seated before them.

Anthony’s heart raced, unsure of what to do.

Seeing Austin’s sudden expression, Austin let out a smug smile. “There is no room for a second chance; your time has elapsed. It’s now my time to take control.”

Austin stood up from his seat as he watched the faces of the parents of the boys.

“This meeting is not complete, I want the boys to be around to witness whatever will unfold here.”

Ryan grabbed Anthony’s collar, “You heard him, send for the boys.”

Anthony nodded, as his body trembled in fear and uncertainty. Immediately he contacted for the boys to be brought to his office.

A few minutes later, the three boys stepped into the chancellor’s office, but their minds skipped the moment they saw their parents on their knees. Their confidence sank in as they felt their world crumble before them.

Anthony’s mind raced; he couldn’t help but wonder who Austin really was.

The three boys were separated according to how their parents were.

“It’s no longer hidden; I guess you all know why we are here.” Austin said, “But let me remind you in case you have forgotten. Your sons took out the wrong guy. The young man in question is at the hospital battling for his life.”

“Please, forgive us. We know the kids had done bad, but you shouldn’t take it on us, their parents. We can talk about this as adults and settle things amicably.” One of the parents pleaded.

Austin furrowed his brow furiously. “There is nothing to settle, this wouldn’t have happened if you had taught your kids not to bully others.”

“This wasn’t the first time, and if I allow this to slide, your kids will continue to bully other kids in school. I am sure you are all aware, but instead of cautioning your kids, you always wet the pocket of this useless fellow just to keep shut. Your judgement is today; I will make sure you feel the pain of other students and parents.”

Chris Augustus received a thunderous slap from his father, “Is this what you were sent to do in school? Look how you are humiliating the family. I will make sure I deal with you when this is over.”

Chris Augustus cradled his cheeks as his body trembled in fear. He tried to speak but no words came out.

Austin smiled as he heard how other parents scolded their kids.

“I haven’t started, so there is no need to scold them.”

Austin turned to Ryan, “I want each of the families to lose their businesses. Make it crumble to the ground, with nothing left in their names.”

“No, no,” they screamed in fear. “Please don’t do this to us. Give us a second chance.”

Ryan kept a deaf ear to their pleas. He took out his phone and made a few phone calls. After which he came back to Austin.

A few minutes later, notifications and calls kept coming into the phones of the parents.

Tears and screams echoed through the room, each man carrying their crosses.

Anthony watched the scene with his heart thumping fast. He wondered what his punishment would be like. If Austin could inflict pain on this families, who then is he?

Austin watched as two fathers and a mother collapsed. “Wake them up, the show is just getting started.”

The men obliged and poured cold water on them, they got up to continue from where they stopped.

The door creaked open as Susan walked in to know what was happening; her jaw dropped in disbelief and shock. Just when she was about to run.

She was caught by one of Austin’s men, “Bring her here, I also forgot about her. What a coincidence.” He let out an evil smirk.
