"You're more foolish than I thought. I wonder what lie you'll tell the police when they get here," Stella said after Williams dropped the call with the cops.

"You know, it's all your fault! No one would have involved the police if you had let us go without insisting that we compensate you," Williams said, trying to irritate Mike.

"Look how he's dressed in a torn shirt, riding in a mind-blowing Lincoln. You're dressed like a beggar that you are," Stella spat

"What was it you said they call him again... Oh yes! Mike scumbag. You should be living in a shit hole," Williams added, expressing his disdain for him.

Mike bit his lips, trying to hold his anger, but he couldn't. As he was about to react, the siren of the police car caught their attention.

"It's time for you to face your judgment, Mike," Stella said

"Let's see who faces judgment," Mike responded.

"Thank Goodness you're here, officer; that's the criminal over there; deal with him," Williams said, pointing to Mike in the car.

"He's a loser and a thief. He stole the car and couldn't even drive properly while trying to park. Our car collided, and there was a scratch on his car. It was his fault our car collided; he's an inexperienced driver," Williams said, blaming the whole incident on Mike.

"Now, he's demanding a compensation. A compensation for a car he stole!" He added.

The policeman gazed at Mike and said, "You're suspected of stealing a car and causing damage to the car! You have to come with me to the police station."

Mike narrowed his eyes and said in a rage, "This is lame! An accusation of stealing a car?" Mike paused and pointed at Williams.

"Don't tell me you believe his story to cover the whole thing with his cheap lie and dumb accusations. He must compensate me for badging my car, Williams," Mike said sternly, uttering every single word with boldness

"Stop lying, Mike; if the car is yours, then prove it, or else, I'll make sure you spend years in jail," Williams said, causing Mike to chuckle softly.

"So what if I can prove that I own it?" Mike asked, smirking.

"If you're able to prove that you own this car, I'll lick the car clean," He said.

As Williams spoke, a Bentley packed next to the scene. They all turned their gaze to the car. Suddenly, a man in a tuxedo opened the door and stepped down from the car with a briefcase.

Ignoring everyone else, he walked towards Mike and said, "Good day, sir; my name is Martin. I'm an insurance adjuster, and the insurance company sent me to you."

"Okay. Good," Mike said and finally stepped down from the car. He walked towards the back of the car where it was damaged before saying,

"Here's it," Mike pointed, causing Martin to nod his head. Martin walked around both cars, inspecting the scene before informing,

"Sir, both cars collided, and unfortunately, the back of your car was damaged. You were clearly on your lane, so the other party has to pay for damages." He paused and then started operating his iPad with a digital pen.

"And because your car is the limited edition Lincoln, the other party is liable for one million dollars for the repair, sir," Martin informed, causing Williams's jaw to drop.

"What? I'm not going to pay that money to this car thief" Williams said.

"Why don't you prove that you own this car? Huh? Prove it to us!" Williams added

"You're a thief, Mike, I've known you all these years, and I didn't think you'd go as far as stealing a car and intentionally colliding with William's car to get 1 million dollars from him," Stella said in disgust, trying to act like they're the victim

"Mr. Martin, why don't you prove that your client is indeed the owner of the car," Williams said, trying to remain calm.

"Pardon, our top client information is confidential," Martin responded.

"No, it's fine, Martin; why don't I give you my name to check the records?" Mike offered.

"Okay, sir, if that's your wish," Martin said with utmost respect.

"Mike Duncan," Mike said and turned to Williams, who was looking anxious; he smiled and then turned to Stella; she placed her hand on her waist, waiting for the man to read what was on the insurance company records.

Martin entered the name on his iPad and frowned. "What does it say?" Williams asked, eager to know what had made the insurance adjuster, frown.

"Mike Duncan?" Martin asked again, confirming if he heard right.

"Yes, what's the matter?" Mike asked, trying to remain calm

"That's not the name the car is registered on," Martin informed, causing Stella to grin.

"You see! You thief! If you think you can fool everyone, then think again, Mike. I was right all along. You only wanted the money, you dirty scumbag." Stella seized the opportunity to insult Mike.

Williams couldn't stop laughing, just to mock Mike. "Don't mind him, honey, he's a scumbag after all," Williams added before turning to the policeman,

"Please take him away, he ought to rot in jail”

He took off his mask causing a smile to curve on Nathan's lips,“You look just like your late father,” he said. There was a brief silence between them.“I’m sorry if I sour your mood,” the old man apologized for talking about Mike’s late father at an event where everyone should only speak of good things because it was a moment to be happy.Theresa forced a smile on her face and stretched her hand forward to shake Mike.“Good day, gentleman,” she said, shaking hands with him.“You know, the both of you look good together,”“Em, Grandpa, I want to use the restroom,” Theresa cut in before Nath

It was a private elevator, and they arrived directly at the VIP hall Just like Paul said, as soon as they walked into the room. Mike noticed that just a few people were present, and they were all wearing masks.The lights weren't bright, so they didn't notice when Mike walked in.Two staff immediately walked to where Mike and Paul stood and gave each of them a mask to wear."I told your grandfather about your desire to stay hidden, so he arranged for a mask to be distributed to everyone who would be attending," Paul informed as if reading Mike's mind."Em, that was thoughtful." At first, Mike was short of words, but he smiled as he realized that he could be able to spend more time than he thought on the anniversary."Come

    "Young master, this event is very important for your grandfather. He wants to show you off to his friends and probably even introduce you to their daughters," Paul said, causing Mike to arch his brows."Their daughters? For what purpose? I have important things to face at the moment. I love the way things are going with me, Stella, and Williams." Mike paused and sat on the sofa next to him before continuing."If everyone knows about me now, the chase will no longer be this elating," Mike added."Sir, this anniversary party is not a big one, trust me. The staff aren't even attending it as they'll be working that day. The old man organized it for just himself and his friends," Paul informed. Mike furrowed his brows, momentarily confused."Why is it called an anniversary, then? Is everyone not supposed to be celebrating?" "The old man doesn't like many crowds at parties because they remind him of so many tragic events. So whenever he has no choice but to celebrate something, it's usuall

    “Beg me before I rethink my actions,” Mike said, causing Williams to burst out laughing,“You’re a joker,” Williams said and looked around him. He noticed that Stella was walking towards them.“Honey, what are you doing over there? Standing with this wicked man,” Stella said, gritting her teeth in anger.“I was just telling him about how delusional he is,” Williams lied. Mike was shocked at his words. He didn't even have the guts to believe that he was trying to talk to Mike reasonably.“Delusional?” Mike scoffed and decided not to join them in their silly game today. He walked towards his car, but Williams was enraged by the way Mike acted so nonchalantly.“My honest problem is how you get these cars! Your new master, right? How did you get such a job?” Williams was trying to gain the public’s attention. Mike narrowed his eyes, and face-slapped himself, saying, “When are you going to get tired of these games? Always dragging this?” “If you’re not tired, then I can play the game wit

He took his phone out and saw that it was a call from Martin,"Hello?" He answered, sternly."Mr. Duncan, the court session will begin tomorrow, as this is a matter of urgency," Martin said, causing Mike to sit up before arching his brows."Have Williams and his lawyer been informed?" Mike asked."Yes sir, the lawyer insists that his client will not pay the compensation," Martin said, leaving Mike shocked momentarily."How foolish, anyway... What time would it be tomorrow?" Mike inquired as he loosened the tie that was hanging on his neck."11 am sir," Martin said."Okay," Mike responded before ending the call. With a smug smile on his face, he walked into the bathroom and turned on the shower, letting the water wash over him.After he was done, he settled into black sweatpants and a grey t-shirt.
