Marcus Krafth; The Rise to Magnificence

Chapter 004

Ben was more annoyed than he had ever been his whole life.

What could have made this guy believe he's able to enter this place, he wondered.

“If you do not leave here now, I really am going to call security on you.” he said to Marcus.

“I'm still going to stand by what I said. My father can not be wrong. The worst case scenario is that he works here.” Marcus said.

The more Ben looked at Marcus, the more irritated he got.

He did not believe Marcus's father even had the qualification to work here.

Ben decided to call the security. He was sick of the sight of Marcus.

He wanted him to remove Marcus from the area. He turned around and walked back to the gate of the palace.

“Sorry to bother you Mr Huncho,” he said, after checking the name tag on the security guard's cloth.

“But there is a beggar at the entrance claiming his father invited him here, he has been disturbing the peace in the area.”

“He likely cheated his way to get into the estate.” Ben continued.

“Looking at how he's dressed himself and the clothes he has put on, he likely deceived the people at the entrance of the estate to enter.”

Ben knew he had to be respectful to this man. Even though he got to partner with the Krafth's, he still needed to respect Huncho.

This was not only because of the way Mr Huncho was built, but also because he literally took care of the security deposit of the Krafth's.

Huncho was literally the tallest and the most muscular person Ben had ever seen.

Ben knew that anyone that ever got on the bad side of this man was in for a whole lot of trouble and pain.

Huncho stood up. He knew his employer hated things like this the most.

He decided to go and see who was causing the disturbance, and throw him out of the estate.

They both walked back outside, Ben was a step ahead of Huncho.

Marcus was back in his thoughts, zoned out.

He suddenly felt something. He looked up and was given the biggest fright of his life.

Marcus had seen really muscular people in his life, but Huncho was a first.

He was shocked to say the least. Different thoughts ran through his mind in that split second.

He thought about it and suddenly realized it was a fitting match for the Krafth's family.

Someone like this could really secure them.

The first thing Huncho noticed when he got outside was the way Marcus looked.

Though he heard everything Mr Marriott had told him, he still believed it couldn't be that bad.

He was, however, shocked. It was worse than what he was expecting in his head.

Though Marcus always tried his best to look good enough for his father, the best he could dress was still not up to par.

Huncho thought back to when last he had seen someone this shabbily dressed come looking for the Krafth's, he could not remember.

He did not believe anyone had ever done it also.

Huncho was irritated,but he did not show it. He knew he had to show a modicum of respect.

“Good afternoon.” Huncho said. “How may I help you?”

“I am here looking for my father.” Marcus said.

“He called me yesterday and sent me this address to come over today. I can show you the message if you want.”

Marcus brought out his phone. Huncho noticed it was the flip phone that was commonly seen around twelve years ago.

Marcus's phone also looked like it had gone through a lot. The phone looked just like the owner.

It looked like the phone had gone through different hands before it got to his hand.

Huncho sneered in his mind. The last vestige of respect he had for Marcus was gradually disappearing.

Just like Mr Been had said, this man was likely a cheater and beggar.

He made up his mind to throw this man out of the estate after he asked a few more questions.

“What is your name?” he said.

Marcus could tell that the look in the eye of the security man had changed.

All he could see now was mockery. He knew that this would likely not go the way he wanted it.

“My name is Marcus Krafth. I already said that before.” Marcus said stubbornly.

“You should at least take me inside to find out if I'm lying or not.”

“I can not do that.” Huncho replied. “How do I explain how someone looking like you was brought inside by me?”

Huncho was now looking over him with distaste. “I am not ready to lose my job.”

Ben was just in the back smiling. He was waiting to see how this would play out.

He already warned Marcus earlier. He was just too stubborn to listen to him. Now he wanted him to suffer.

“You keep saying your name is Marcus Krafth, but how do we know you are telling the truth?” Ben sneered.

“If you don't have any way to prove to us that you are who you say you are, you will likely suffer before you leave here today.”

Ben wanted Marcus to be beaten.

Marcus was exasperated. He knew there was no feasible way to prove himself.

He tried calling his father again, and it still gave the same response. His identification card was not with him also.

“I've tried calling my Dad but his number has not been going through since, and I'm not with any other proof.

Ben smirked, “I knew you were a liar right from the outset. Mr Huncho we both can see that this man is not who he claims he is.”

“I think it's time to throw him out.” he continued.

“Now, are you going to leave by yourself, or I should help you,” Hunch said menacingly.

Marcus was angry. These people did not even try to confirm with anybody, and just decided he was lying.

This security man that just got outside also looked like he was going to beat him if he did not leave this place.

Marcus would have fought with him, but he knew he stood no chance against this hunk of flesh.

He was about to reply when he heard the door open and he saw someone walk out.

Juliet had tried paging Huncho for a while. She needed to tell him to expect someone.

Her father had told her that her brother was coming home finally.

He had passed the test the family had set for him.

Juliet was Marcus's sister, they had not seen each other for a while.

She missed her brother so much. So, she was really excited.

Ben was shocked as he turned back to face the sound he just heard. It was Juliet Krafth. He had only heard of her name.

She was rumored to be one of the most beautiful women in the world of the rich right now.

What Ben saw, did justice to what he had heard. He saw an exquisite woman dressed and looking beyond beautiful.

He decided to introduce himself. “ Good afternoon ma, I am Benjamin Marriott. I just signed a partnership deal with the Krafth company.”

Huncho also greeted her with respect, “Miss Krafth, did you need me? You could have called for me on the pager.”

He noticed quickly that his pager was not on him. He had likely dropped it inside when he came to see what Mr Marriott talked about.

Ben and Huncho immediately noticed that she did not even spare them a glance. She walked straight up to the beggar.

“Sister?” Marcus said with disbelief apparent in his voice.
