Chapter fifty two: The family court
Hannah arrived at the family court still stinging from the subtle humiliation at the Sunshine Academy after the confrontation by Cassandra that felt like a Physical slap to her face. The way she stood in her face to defend Benjamin as though she was a stain on him, and the satisfaction in her eyes when she said divorcing him gave her chance like Benjamin was everything she desired made her chest burn with jealousy she didn't want to admit and anger that wasn't attached to anything specific. Or maybe she didn't want to admit she was angry seeing another woman with him now.Hannah filed for a petition in the Family court that would determine Aria's custody because she had been paid two million by the Reed that suggested she shun justice against judgment for her daughter. Benjamin received a call from the family court immediately the petition was completed. Hannah Ashbourne petitioned to have Aria in her custody and Benjamin was supposed to show up the following day.The next day, Benj
Chapter fifty one
Benjamin held his gaze firmly without even blinking an eye. "You will apologize for your insult, Alejandro," he said, his voice calm. "you can't bribe your way with me with your burger change." Alejandro Reed chuckled— sharp and amusing. "You're too bold, Hayes," he said, "but I have seen a lot of men charge into war they know nothing about, thinking it is pride until they soak up in blood, a foolish death. Don't get relaxed. You're sitting on fire now." With that, he turned and started walking out of the place. "We shall see who will burn then." Benjamin concluded. Alejandro Reed paused, and turned with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He smiled tightly and turned away, stepping into his car and drove away instantly. His finger tightened around the steering wheel, his jaw clenched as anger bubbled inside like hot water on a pressure cooker. He had just been challenged by the same man he overlooked. He had walked into a lot of rooms and silenced powerful men with his presence, eve

Chapter fourty nine: Alejandro Reed
*********Alejandro Reed arrived in a military grade SUV that most people only see in action movies. He hadn't stepped out of the Car when the air knew it was him— his presence announced itself. Reporters swarmed his car, camera flashing on the chrome of the car and tinted black Window. Alejandro Reed came alone without Securities and yet his presence made reporters, careful not to move too close to his Car and ambitious to serve their duty.The door opened slowly and a black loafer touched the floor then his body followed. He clad a Deep charcoal suit that was smooth as glass, his hair neatly styled, not a single strand daring to move. His expression was cold in front of the camera, his presence radiating a cold and dangerous Aura that made the old Reporter hesitant and new recruits curious.George stepped out of the other side, in a designer shirt that was too clean for a kid who just attempted murderer through severe bully.Benjamin gently walked to meet him at the quad, his expr
Chapter forty eight: The Reed in trouble
Panic struck Margaret Reed like a thunderclap. Her expression went from shock to pale as her followers decreased rapidly from 7 millions to 4 million in the space to 5 minutes and was still dropping rapidly. Her finger trembled violently and the phone slipped from her, clattering to the floor, her heart banging in her ear like a wardrum, each ping from the phone a Sharp stab to her heart."Oh, My God!" The gasp came out strangulated in her throat. She grabbed the phone and immediately stumbled out of the room, her heel clacking on the stairs as she hurried over it, sustaining her movement between emergency and tripping to gravity. "Honey...honey..." Alejandro Reed was already up, pacing the room with a wrinkled expression like a wounded predator angry he was caged. His voice came before his wife's, filled with anger."My investigators are calling in. They're threatening to pull away their shares because of that scum!" He spun to his wife who was panicking just like him. "I thought w
Chapter forty seven: Simple move from the trillionaire
Hannah's expression cracked, anger crossing the Split like lightning through the sky.Benjamin had never spoken to her like this before. She'd never seen this look on his face. He wasn't looking like anything she pretended not to see in the past; not the man urging her to take things carefully, not the lovely man despite her rejection and early morning argument would still come to her company with a food flask for her lunch.This Benjamin was different, and there was something about him that had changed that she couldn't quite place."How dare you speak to me like that? Is it because of her? Because of this slut?" Her finger snapped at Cassandra. She frowned deeply."Don't you dare speak about her." Benjamin's voice was leveled still, a quiet thunder in it. "You think every woman is like you? That they walk away because they just felt like it? You don't get to come back here now, Hannah."Anger consumed Hannah like a volcano erupting inside. Her arms cut through the air to smack him i
