The Over Night Secret Billionaire

Too Real To Be True

He jumped off the bed out of fear of being caught sleeping in this kind of bed that he could never afford to get, even with his two-year salary all together.

"It was a mistake.” His speech was incomplete as he vividly stared at the huge man in a black suit, but he could barely mark what he looked like because he was wearing a shade that was hiding his eyes.

"I want you to follow me right now. The boss is waiting for you downstairs.” He said in a deep voice that it was obviously scary. Darren was quite confused about the boss he was talking about, and he didn’t quite understand why he would want to see him.

He was sure as hell that he hadn’t committed another offense, and if it was about Avery, then he had given up, so he deserved to have a peaceful life from now on.

Darren had so many questions, but the guy in the suit didn’t seem entertaining, so he gulped down and decided to follow him while he led the way downstairs.

As Darren followed him from behind, he began to recall that there were about three to four men who were also in black suits who came in front of his table last night.

Then he recalled that one had smacked him hard at the back of his neck, and that could explain the reason for the severe pain at that point around his neck.

They reached downstairs, and he stared at the amazing design of the sitting room and the indulgence designs all the way from the bedroom down to the sitting room. The structure and interior designs of the house are ones he had never seen before except in movies, and Darren barely had time for movies because he had to work hard to earn some bucks.

While they walked forward, Darren noticed a man in a dark blue suit backing them. He seemed to be focused on the outside view of the house. Darren didn’t realize that it was a penthouse until he saw the view as he stepped closer to the man backing them.

"Sir, he is here.” The man in the black suit said and bowed his head, even when the man in the blue suit wasn’t looking at him.

Darren noticed he was a middle-aged man from his back view. He was dying of curiosity while his whole body began to feel numb and sweat began to bead on his forehead.

The man, who had his two hands dipped into his side pocket, took a slow turn to stare at Darren and the guard.

Darren was able to clearly see the man’s face, and his mouth dropped to the ground. There was no bloody way that he was standing in front of Mr. Reeves, the number one wealthiest man in the world.

The bone in his knee cracked a bit out of tension, and he could barely keep his stance as he fell to his knee.

"Please, sir, I think this is all a set-up. I haven’t done anything. Please let me go.” His breath was shaky as he pleaded, and his heart began to pound hard against his chest.

Before he knew it, he began to hear the sound of whimpering, and as he lifted his face, he saw the tears streaming down Mr. Reeves cheek. He was the one crying. Darren was in a tantrum, and confusion was tormenting the hell out of his brain.

"I'm sorry, sir. Please forgive me for whatever I have done and spare me, please."Darren gagged on his saliva. He felt like this was going to be the end of him. He was going to end up dying here because he had fallen into Mr. Reeves’ trap, and he was unsure how he was going to get out of this trouble.

“ God! I finally found my son’s lookalike.” He cried as he walked closer to him and began to rub Darren’s face slowly, as though he missed touching his son. He has been gone for over two years, and he felt so hurt seeing someone who looked so much like him. It brought so many memories that his heart began to shatter, and as a very influential man, he couldn't choke back the tears because he was his only son and he was his heir.

“ What?” Darren stiffened in shock. He tried to digest what he was saying, and he wasn’t certain if he had heard that he looked so much like his son.

"Get on your feet!” He commanded, and his voice was fiercer than the guard standing behind them.

Darren was totally confused by all the drama, and he seeks clarity. At some point, he noticed this man was not going to punish him or kill him because he could see sincerity in his eyes and raw human tears trickling down his face. It was strange to Darren for a very influential man to be shedding real tears in front of him. It was enough confusion to take in, but it felt so real.

Darren immediately got on his feet because Mr. Reeves was a man of authority.

"What do you mean I look like your son?” Darren was baffled.

"Hector, give him the picture of Tate.” Mr. Reeves ordered the guard who was behind them. Then he brought out the picture from the pocket of his suit and showed it to Darren.

Darren held the photos with shaky hands and noticed that the young guy in the photo looked exactly like him, and his eyes widened to the extreme. He didn't believe they were people who were lookalikes in this world; he was startled and stunned.

"What happened to him?” Darren asked with pity in his eyes.

"Take the photo from him and keep it safe.” Mr. Reeves ordered the guard, and he flung the picture from Darren’s hand.

"My son died two years ago.” He sniffled and backed Darren immediately as he began to speak; he was probably hiding his pain from Darren. Darren had seen enough, and he didn't need him to witness how vulnerable he was becoming, especially given his health status.

"I don’t want to talk about my son. Let’s get down to business as to why you are here. I know you have a lot of questions to ask.” Mr. Reeves said as he folded his hands behind his back.

" I'm sure, you don't need me to introduce myself. I am Reeves Sebastian, the owner and Chairman of  Engand Group." Reeves said and Darren battled to hold his gaze. Darren knew of the Group because it is currently the number in the world.

" I don't not have much time to live, young man, I was diagnosed of cancer of the blood. I do not have an heir anymore, this is why I searched all over for someone that looked like my late son and my men finally found you." Reeves explained and Darren listened.

" I want you to be that heir that I lost. I want you to inherit everything before I give up the ghost." Reeves said on a serious note and Darren just stared at him with shock.
