 His eyes made a clean sweep towards where the young man was standing. Mr. Edward could tell that the eyes of his young master were easily filled with questions.

"Yes. Your father is the owner of the Chain Chain Consortium and was appointed as a prince not too long ago as a title." 

"But just a few people know about his identity as he has refused to show his face to the public for personal reasons which I do understand." Mr. Edward went into the details of it.

The consortium was known to be the fastest growing that could be found anywhere in the world and could also be said to be the best that had ever been seen.

His eyes where still stuck on the plane that was right before him, his heart beating hard against his chest ad thought it was going to burst through and he didn't even realize when he voiced out this words.

"You mean that my father is the owner of the trillion dollar consortium?" He inquired once again, his eyes still bulging from his head.

From the way that his young master had been behaving, Edward could easily connote that he was being genuine and his face broke off into a smile.

"Your father isn't the owner of a three trillion Dollars consortium."

"That's the figure that has just been put forward to the world. Even though I am your father's right hand man, I still don't know much about internal workings in the system.

"But believe me, the lowest that your father would be at the moment is three trillion dollars. During the making of his wealth, he had several industries in one name." He explained with a smile still on his face.

The words kept on ringing in his head for quite a number of times. Could this be a dream? He had already pinched himself quite a couple of times and he knew that it was not.

But the more that he thought about it, the more that it was looking more like a dream.

He was too lost in thoughts that he didn't even realize when his stomach made a rumbling sound.

Director. Edward quickly turned around in his direction. His face breaking up in cold sweat once again as he went ahead to inquire.

The racing of his heart increased even more as he finally found the courage within himself to finally inquire.

"I'm really sorry, young master. I should have taken you to get a meal already. Please don't be offended." He apologized as soon as he could but Lut wasn't worried even for a single moment.

They got into the car and soon zoomed off. The place was littered with a red carpet entrance. But there wasn't much before them anyways.

"Follow me." He said with a smile on his face and when they eventually got to the elevator, it took them down to the floor instead.

Stepping off from it, he was caught up in a state that made him go numb right on the spot, the racing of his heart increasing by the moment.

It was a sea hotel with aquatic life floating in their glass barrier. He had never seen anything so beautiful before.

"Do you like it, young master?" He Inquired with a strange stare on his face.

"Like it. This feels more like heaven if you ask me already." He replied.

"I am glad that you like it, young master." He replied, the smile on his face broadening even more.

Eventually, they walked off to the lobby. The people that were on the way continued to bow before them, showing respect to Director Edward he noticed.

They eventually got off to a room without many people there when Director Edward finally turned around towards him with a smile on his face and he said..

"You can wait for me here. I will get the manager right away to prepare the most exclusive section for you, Young master." Be replied once again with a bow before he eventually walked off from the place.

His heart raced as the words gradually swapped off from his ears and his eyes were once again fixed on the stare that laid before him.

The dolphins floating through the place in their numbers, making the weird sounds as though they were speaking.

He noticed a strange lady walking off before him. And she stormed off once again. He would never have noticed her if her steps were not way too obvious..

However, she was soon gone only to return a few minutes later with three armed uniform men with handcuffs in their hands, chains and the rest, like a group of people that were already ready for any form of battle..

# "There he is." Said the lady pointing off towards Lut was seated.

"Your hands in the air." They glared at him.

His face was flooded with confusion as he continued to stare at the situation that was right before him for quite a while.

He had never experienced anything like that before and he could not place his hands on what was going on. His face eventually connoted into a corresponding frown and he inquired.

"What's going on here?" 

The strange lady immediately lashed out and thundered at him with all the hate and disgust that she could muster in the inside of him.

"Are you really asking me that question right now?" He glared angrily with the hate still bubbling in him.

"You came in here to steal from us and you are giving that cry baby face? Who do you feel is going to fall for that?" She glared back at him.

For a while, Lut was beginning to understand why she was pacing up and down. But before he could even think of anything else that he was going to do, he heard the vibrating sound that was coming off from the army man.

"I told you already. Your hands in the air." He glared angrily at Lut who was trying to plead his case. He wasn't frightened. Gone were the days that anyone was going to make him too.

"And you aren't going to hear me out? I didn't come here to steal anything. I am here with Director Edward." He replied.

For a while, he's beginning to regret even calling his name. There was zero to no chance that the people that were standing before him were going to know who he was.

But it turned out that he was wrong and soon enough, they soon burst out into a wide range of laughter.

# Their stares kept on piercing at him from behind and once again, the strange lady was the first person to speak..

# "Director Edward. How dare you even spit out that name from your mouth? Do you even realize who that is?" She glared, her sudden amusement gradually melting off into straight anger.

"If not for the fact that I am a professional. I would have given you a slap already on that stupid face of yours that you aren't going to forget in the long run." She replied.

His words seemed to have gotten them even more angry than they were already as they forged ahead towards him and started to place the cuff in his hands.

But that was when he heard petters of feet. A stunning lady that looked more like a goddess, glittering in the stunning light ray that was surprisingly piercing the place.

Her looks shifted to Lut before it moved back to the strange lady that seemed to harbor so much hatred for him.

With the frown still sustained on her face, she Inquired.

"Tina. What do you think that you are doing? You realize that this is my section right and you have no authority here right?" She glared. With every word that she spoke, the frown on her face only grew deeper.

  • Ashes of yesterday

    “I wish I could explain now. But I'm running late.”He retrieved his phone from his pocket, stared at the screen for a few seconds, then began to make his way as hurriedly as possible out of the hall.“Richard! Richard! We have a child together. Is this the married life we talked about?”She held onto his shirt, unable to believe that he would actually abandon her without an explanation.He shoved her, shaking his head in frustration.“I'll call you, I promise. I'll call you.”Her body racking with sobs, Ariel turned to the stage as Lutenant announced that the dinner was officially open.Even in the midst of numerous faces and people, she caught his eyes on her this time around.

Was Lutenant James, the same man she had rejected for Richard, now the supreme ruler?It was at that moment that Ariel recognized the beautiful woman who had introduced him onto the stage. It was the same woman she had seen at the restaurant with him a few days ago.“Before I say anything,” Lutenant’s voice boomed across the hall. It wasn't the voice of a loser.It was the voice of a confident man.“Before I say anything, I want to personally thank each and everyone of you for honouring the invitations my company sent out. I know that some of you don't want to be here, and for those of you who took out time from your busy schedule to even come down here, I can't thank you less.”For a moment, Ariel felt his eyes rest on her table, and her heart pounded in terror.A thousand questions plagued her mind.Had he invited her person

  • The unmasking

Was she actually ready to spend the rest of her life with this man?“Welcome to the James corporation, Ma'am. Tonight's dinner is strictly based on invitation. Did you receive one?”Nodding, she retrieved the envelope that had been addressed to her.The towering unsmiling guard grabbed it and passed it to the smiling woman in a dark blue suit who confirmed that h

  • A crown in waiting

    Sir? They've started coming in.”Lutenant turned to Aurora, who had gone home to change into something more dinner worthy.Her dark blue midnight gown graced her feet perfectly, and the heels she wore slightly made her look taller than she originally was.Lutenant wanted nothing more than to kiss her.But first things first, the dinner.“Thank you, Aurora. How are you?”“Very good, sir. I'm hoping tonight is a success. You've looked forward to it for a long time now.”Lutenant nodded, turning to look at the window which overlooked the city.A few months ago, he was a man disrespected, a man on the brink of having his life wrenched from beneath him. But here he was, about to take over the city. And he wasn't just going to take over, he was going to do it in style.“Thank you, Aurora. You can go now.
