chapter 12
Lucian's new home was in the heart of the city, the penthouse on the top floor of a building that had been completed about three months earlier.Before then, he had lived in a standard but luxurious three-bedroom apartment close to the estate of his former house.There, he had been able to observe his daughter most times when she went off to school and came back.He had been restricted from coming within a hundred feet of Maya.Adriana had made sure of that during the last year, while Lucian remained silent as the ghost millionaire.He had made sure to be very observant of his daughter's life.But he had to move to a home befitting his wealth again. He would definitely miss watching Maya leave for school, but for now, he had to make better moves.As his driver parked the car in the underground garage, Amira's phone beeped in her hand.She swiped it open, and a message flashed on the screen."Oh my goodness, Mr. Cross, they accepted," she beamed, fingers over her mouth."Amira, I've to

As soon as they were outside the conference room, Adriana shrugged her hand roughly out of Vincent's hold."This is bullshit, complete bullshit," she grumbled aloud.Vincent called to her to slow down, but she was too heated to listen. All she wanted was to be as far away from Lucian as possible.A porter rolling a trolley of clothes collided with Adriana out of nowhere.She was too livid to see it approaching, so she didn't get out of the way.It rolled over her toes, and she screamed in pain.Vincent rushed over to help her, and so did the porter."Are you blind?" she thundered at the porter.Tears had already gathered in her eyes as she fought the urge to cry in public.Vincent put his hand under her arm to assist her."Let's get you treated.""No. I want this man fired," she shouted again.The porter opened his mouth to offer an apology but was met with a stinging slap across the chin.People had already gathered, phones out, taking videos of the incident.Vincent leaned closer to

Vincent looked from Lucian to Adrian, then from Adriana to Lucian again.He rubbed his eyes to be sure he was not seeing things.“Lucian?” He also repeated.With a wide, mischievous grin on Lucian's face“In the flesh.” He said Adriana gave a sarcastic scoff“No, there's no way-” She stopped mid sentence.“How are you the president of Nixon's Holdings?”A short, sarcastic laugh escaped Vincent's throat.“This must be some sort of joke, I must be dreaming, I am dreaming right?”Amira who had been quiet all along finally spoke up“No, you are not. Mr Cross is here to hear your propositions as stated in the mail.”Vincent sucked his teeth really loud. His eyes clouded as he thought this was some kind of prank.“I'm not buying into this, young lady. I want to meet the president of Nixon Holdings, not this man who has been to prison.”Lucian just sat crossed legged, observing the shock on both their faces“I advise you to watch what you say about Mr Cross, he is the president of Nixon's

Nixon Holdings transformed into one of the fastest, rising real estate firms in the country. Within the space of a year.Every company in the country wants to associate with them or even get to collaborate with Nixon Holdings.The company's growth astounded everyone and was the talk of top organisations in the country and other countries.It was hard to get hold of President,.which everyone assumed was a millionaire ghost.He chooses the company he wants to get tangled with personally and refuses any other offer that comes up.Vincent Price slapped his hand on the smooth surface of the desk in Cross Venture’s conference room “This is the third time that Nixon Holdings would be refusing an alliance with us. Does he know who we are.” His words dropped like acid.“He should be grateful that we are reaching out to him instead, many real estate companies would fall flat just to align with Cross Ventures.”The shareholders that were present in the board room murmured amongst themselves.Ad

“You've been glued to the television screen for more than an hour now, you do know that it could hurt your eyes.”Amira said out of curiosity, it was her day off and she planned to have a good rest.Lucian was not supposed to be in the house that day And she wanted to have the house to herself while he was out for work.Kuavin hit nervously into his fingers. His eyes remained focused on the tv screenNothing of importance was showing at the moment, but he has his reasons for staying in that position all morning In less than ten minutes, the redevelopment of the region he bought with Mr Nixon's two hundred thousand dollars would be announced.Sweat beads formed on his forehead, despite the heavy whirl of ceiling fan above.The news anchor for the sunrise television news started the announcement and Lucian edged forward on his seat“We are live today as the governor of the state has released the news of several areas that would be developed soon. And amongst them are.”Lucian's ears p

When Mr Nixon commented on Lucian's physical attribute, Lucian's mind wondered around a lot of of things Like, what the nature of the job could probably be? His mind could not settle on anything in particular.Not until he entered Mr Nixon's old truck and they stopped in front of a building.Lucian looked out through the window of the truck“You've got to be kidding me.” He muttered aloudMr Nixon slammed the truck door shut as he stepped out.He Yanked his pants so that it settled on his bulging tummy.“Yeap, my very own janitorial company, passed down for three generations.”His voice exuded pride as he spoke“What did you think you were coming to do?” He asked Lucian.Lucian's face was scrunched as he continued to observe the small building.“I don't know, definitely not this.”Mr Nixon ignored the snide in Lucian's voice“Come on now, We've got work to do.”It turns out that Mr Nixon runs cleaning services for some offices in the city, especially buildings that have just been bui
