Rose to Fame: CEO Of A Multibillionaire Company Overnight

Chapter four: heavenly offer

Chapter Four Heavenly offer

“Young master, our future heir to the great empire. We have finally found you.”

Julian stood stationary, his legs incapable of carrying his body not understanding what they meant by that greeting. He was no heir, only a poor orphan who had been discarded by his parents. Julian smiled awkwardly and concluded that these men were mental while he sought another way to escape.

“You are not only the heir, you are the chosen one that will save our empire and bring it to greater heights. Are you prepared to ascend to the throne and take your full responsibility as the new heir and CEO of Magnus Empire?”

“What?!” Julian did not stop himself from laughing as he truly confirmed that they were very mental. Maybe it was an act or a play and they were filming it on camera. He swiftly searched around only to see a whole crowd of people and camera flashing lights. Fear ran down his spine and he frankly spoke. “I think you are mistaken. I am not any heir. I think you made a mistake.”

“The stars never lie. Destiny never lies.” The man said and gripped Julian’s shirt to expose the star-like symbol on his chest. Julian gazed at the sudden revelation and became seriously petrified about this. He had no birthmark of such.

“I……” Julian exhaled and stepped backward. He closed his shirt and looked away. He did not want to believe in such superstitious situations. It could be a coincidence that it has been there since. Anything can be a coincidence but not this dire situation!

“We’ve been looking for you, Mr. Williams. Years have passed and you are still able to retain might, agility, wisdom and strength. We traced the magical, supreme power to you. We cannot be mistaken, Young Lord. You are the descendant of the GREAT MAGNUS EMPIRE.

Julian blinked his eyes to ensure he was not daydreaming, and actually, he was not. He reached for his chest and felt a burning sensation on the spot where that symbol was. It was already visible to him and everyone else. What other proof did he need to dispel the thought that they had made a mistake when a big one was staring at all of them?

“Me? I am only a pauper whose fiancée cheated on. I have no capability of running an empire. I can’t be the one you are looking for. Are you sure about this?” Julian blinked his eyes in confusion attempting to see if they would give up on him, but no they did not. His arms trembled as the leader handed over to him a complete biography of his life. He shrieked in horror and stepped back. “Why are you stalking me?”

He was scared of these men. He wanted to run far away from them but something powerful was keeping him still.

“Mr. Williams, there is no time left! Are you interested in changing your worthless life and then making those who disparaged you pay? I am offering you a CEO position in one of the biggest empires belonging to Great Magnus II. As a CEO, you are liable to a daily eight-figure salary, a brand new, luxurious Mercedes car, ten mansions of your own, and anything you want! Do you agree?”

This offer was backed up by a contract depicting that it was not a joke. Their serious faces too were shreds of evidence that they were not pranking him. Was this finally the God-sent offer he had been praying for to happen? It came quicker than he had expected.

“Sign the contract.” He assured Julian and without further ado, he signed it under their constant pressure. The road was cleared for him by the snap of the man’s fingers. Julian was directed into the car, the door held by someone else, he comfortably laid on the chair.

“What next boss?” Another person whispered in the leader’s ears and he responded quickly. “We take him to meet the old master. Do not forget to wipe off every trace of Julian Williams. He doesn’t exist anymore. He is now Mr. Magnus’ son, Jackson Magnus!” His words were followed by the shake of heads and all made way for him to make his way into the car.

“Ensure that no one has any pictures of the young master, if they do, I want them dead. His arrival shall be welcomed by a grand ceremony where he would be crowned as the successor of the empire, got it?”

“Yes, Boss….”

………………………

The door banged shut as Kyra who had gone after Julian came back empty-handed having a worn-out expression on her face. It appeared that she had not achieved her purpose of chasing him out. She cleared her head and sat down.

“Are you going to chase after that penniless asshole that ruined our life? He doesn’t deserve your mercy at all. I have always wanted to get rid of him by all means.” Denzel said with a hint of annoyance as he spoke to Kyra. He glared at his bandaged wrist, recalling what Julian had done to it.

He was in pain and it was all because of that useless boy. As he kept on cursing, Kyra walked back and front pondering on his last word. She was more concerned about the authority that Gregory spoke with as if he had such powers to do so. She wouldn’t want any harm to befall her mother, that was her weak point.

Kyra had not done deep research on the true identity of Julian before they met. She only assumed he was a poor orphan which was what Julian had told her. She only needed him to work for her while she went from one brothel to another sleeping with men here and there.

The way he spoke troubled her very much.

“Did you not hear what he said?” She asked Denzel
