Chapter 5. Glimmer of Hope.

Max couldn't contain his shock but he quickly controlled himself so that he wouldn't go haywire in respect to his reaction.

"I can't believe it. Do you actually have a job offer for me Sir?" Max asked.

"Actually I don't just only have a job offer but a proper accommodation. Let's meet up at Dawn City Monument, I'll be there waiting for Sir." Derrick replied and ended the call.

Max reluctantly arose from the bed and went into the bathroom and washed his face as he donned his clothes.

He looked very cheap in his dressing but it was all he could afford with the meager salary that kept him alive monthly.

Max exited his apartment and took the elevator and while he was in there he noticed that his phone had received another message.

'Interesting. Whoever this individual is he must be interested in me specifically.' Max said inwardly as the elevator arrived at the lowest floor.

Ding!

The elevator's doors slid open as he marched out and walked towards the exit of the building ignoring his incoming neighbours that means absolutely nothing to him.

They never even knew he existed in the first place.

Max arrived at a garden close to Dawn City Park as he sat down on a bench in the garden facing the nearby road.

It didn't take long before a sleek, black SUV rolled through the quiet street. It's tinted windows shielded the occupant of the vehicle from the prying eyes of people.

The vehicle then came to a gentle halt Infront of the garden where Max was relaxing in.

The door of the vehicle gave way as a tall and muscular man in a crisp jacket stepped out and exuded a wealthy aura.

The SUV was followed by fifteen vehicles all containing private security officials and Max wondered who this individual was.

'I really hope I'm actually safe here, It's really shocking to see how much opulence this said individual is showing right now.' Max said inwardly as he stood looking at the individual in a crisp jacket.

The security team marched towards where Max was and they all bowed with one knee like the knights of olden times.

Then the man in crisp jacket was the last to bow as he made a statement.

"Young Master Wonderson we're here for you. We've been searching for you for so long and I'm glad we've found you. Your Father awaits you." The man in crisp jacket said in a strong British accent.

Max summoned the courage to speak.

"Who are you exactly? Is this the job offer?"

"Also how do you even know my name?"

"My name is Derrick Reynolds the one who spoke to you on your phone. I'm glad to meet you and at the request of your Father he said we should pick you up." Derrick replied respectfully.

"We've known your identity for long and we've been protecting you. All will he explained in due time Young Master Maxwell." Derrick added.

"Will you follow us?" Derrick inquired looking earnestly at Max.

Max nodded affirmatively as the security immediately surrounded Max and escorted him to the sleek black SUV.

Max entered along with Derrick Reynolds as the door slammed shut immediately cutting of the peaceful bird sounds of the garden.

The convoy pulled away leaving behind a trail of dust in its acceleration.

In the backseat, Max curiously gazed out of the window his eyes looking back at the life he was leaving behind and the new life that awaited him.

"Don't worry Young Master Wonderson, All will be explained in due time Sir. You'll be aware of what had really transpired a long time ago." Derrick informed the young master.

"Yeah it's alright." Maxwell responded.

It didn't take long before they were greeted by manicured lawn and towering gates. The mansion loomed ahead as it's grandeur was a testament to the power and wealth that was waiting for him.

As the trail of vehicles arrived the gates swung open revealing the affluence that lay within.

The cars drove in grand style and exuded elegance in their arrival.

'Interesting. This is actually fantastic look at these beautiful trees and flowers. Whoever owns this must be very wealthy and must weild a lot of power.' Max said inwardly as he observed his surroundings.

Towering columns stretched towards the sky their marble facades gleaming in the emerging sunlight.

Max and Derrick alighted from the dark SUV as they approached the entrance of the Mansion.

It revealed itself to be a majestic entrance that seemed to whisper secrets to those who dare to approach it.

'This is just grand. I'm really interested in knowing where all of this is actually heading to for real.' Max uttered inwardly as he felt excitement bubbling in his blood. He couldn't really explain his excitement.

Derrick noticed Max's apathetic reaction to all of this and he looked away realising that the Young Master was indeed matured.

As they walked through the majestic hallways their footsteps echoed through the halls it was the only disturbance in the heavy silence that hung like a shroud over the opulent decor of the interior of the Mansion.

The security team waited outside while Derrick and Young Master Maxwell walked towards the library.

Derrick halted his movement and so did Max as he softly knocked on the door expecting a response.

"Come in!" A bold matured voice uttered.

The door opened and both of them saw a burly matured man who sat comfortably on his seat as he read a book.

"Master Wonderson I've fulfilled my promise and found your son. I've done my best all these years in respect to protecting him." He said in a respectful tone.

"Thank you so much Derrick. That's why I appreciate your dedication." The matured man replied.

"Young Master Maxwell please feel free and sit down with your Father." Derrick encouraged the stunned young man.

'Could it be?' Maxwell said inwardly as he felt a deep connection like never before as he beheld this matured man.

Max walked cautiously towards where the matured man was seated and sat on the chair opposite him.

The chair was so relaxing and the library added a feel of calmness and wisdom.

"Good Afternoon Sir. I've been willing to ask." Max uttered with trembling in his voice.

"Please feel free you can ask your questions." The matured man responded calmly.

"How do you know I'm your son Sir?" Maxwell inquired.

"I think it's best I answer this question by myself Son. You're a true son of the Wonderson Family and I'll tell you how it all started and what led to how you went through the rough patches in your life." The matured man replied.
