This was the first time that he was hearing about such a large amount of money and it was making his heart race really fast.

If his father would be able to lend him such a large amount of money, that would only mean that he had quite a lot more money.

"How rich are you father?" He was trying his best to act normal before his father when suddenly his cell phone made a buzzing sound.

He got off the phone and noticed that it was a text before turning around once again towards Lut with so much love and action in his somewhat falling tone this time and he went ahead to say.

"That would be left for you to find out." He eventually said.

There was a strange expression that was littered on his face and Lut could immediately tell that something was wrong.

Before he could even get the chance to ask the questions that were lingering in his mind, his father already went ahead to say with smiles on his face.

"I wish that I could spend more time with you Lut but I am sorry that I would have to leave so early. Please bear with me." His father said with a sad note to his tone but Lut nodded his head.

Knowing that rich people could be extremely busy, there was certainly no need for him to feel offended by his father's actions.

"I fully understand." He soon replied.

With appreciation, his father left the room and he was finally left alone in the room once again.

Swift thoughts were running through his head at multiple intervals. The thoughts of how rich his father could be when another interruption eventually came from the door.

"Young master. Are you in there?" The sound came. And even though it was sounding familiar, he could not tell exactly where he had heard this sound from before.

Eventually, the person from the door eventually stepped forward and it turned out to be Edward who bowed immediately their eyes crossed paths.

"Young master. Hope you are having a great day." He quickly said and there was a sudden pause in his tone.

He was never used to this kind of life and it was beginning to feel extremely weird having someone who was way older than him treat him as though he was more like a God.

With racing feets, he quickly rushed forward towards him to help him up. And once their eyes crossed paths again, a strange sense of cold shivers ran down the spine of Edward.

He could eventually feel his heart beating hard against his chest as though it was going to burst through from the point.

"Young master. Is there a problem?" There were fine cracks in his voice and he eventually spoke.

"There is no need for you to keep calling me Sir Edward. You can always call me Lut. That would be better." His voice was calm as he spoke but instead produced some weird effect that he was never expecting.

He soon fell off to his feet, his face breaking off into cold sweat and sending a strange look through his face.

"Is there a problem?" He couldn't help it but inquire.

"Young master. I am very sorry if I have done anything wrong. Please forgive me." He kept on pleading at multiple intervals with the sound of his racing heart storming off into Luts ears.

"You have done nothing wrong. I just don't like it when you are referring to me." He quickly clarified and helped Edward up once again.

Edward was confused, the kindness of his young master getting him shaken to the root as thoughts were already running off through his head.

'Was this true?'

'Or am I just thinking things in my head?' The thoughts kept on streaming in his head.

Even though Lut's father was kind to him, even to keep him to the point that he was already, that didn't mean that it was going to be to this extent.

He decided that he was going to do as he was told but knew that it was not going to be easy, since he was already way too used to his old ways.

"Thank you so much young master." He replied once again before he acknowledged his mistakes and his words quickly broke off.

"Sir Lut." He quickly corrected himself but Lut said nothing about it this time.

"So you wanted to tell me about something?" Lut inquired with a strange look on his face as he continued to stare at him.

There was a sudden pause between the both of them before he eventually went ahead to  the question that he had just been asked.

"Yes. Your father wanted me to show you around the place." He replied calmly. "He said that you were curious to know about his worth so he wanted me to show you around." He said.

Lut nodded his head and knew that it would soon be time for him to get ready so that he was going to join him on this trip.

"Okay. A few moments." He replies.

Getting into the bathroom, he took his bath as soon as he could before he eventually returned. At that point, Edward was no longer in the room to give him all the privacy that he needed to have.

He got into his clothes that he had brought over with him. They were plain and not that ordinary. The best that he had during the period.

Another sound came from the other end of the door again and it was eventually time for them to leave and the moment of truth for him to know more about his father.

When they eventually walked off from the place, they got into the car and were strolling off to a place that was quite similar in making.

It was grand and something told him that he knew about this place way too well around. The beating of his heart raced faster as the deeper they went, the more familiar it eventually beginning and there was only one thoughts that was storming through his had at the moment.

'Have I been to this place before?' He thought.

And for the answer to his thoughts, there was only one way that they were going to find out and it turned out that it would be very soon as he heard words from Edward tripping into his hearings.

"We are here already." He muttered out aloud as the car eventually drew into a quick stop.

He drew a really deep breath before he stopped off from the car. It turned out that they were before a stunning white mansion that was laced with gold and every glittering stone that could be found in the world.

He looked up when his eyes eventually caught up with a really strange sight that got him frozen right on the point that he was standing and his blood was running cold.

"THE DWELLING OF THE HIGHEST MONARCH." Where the words that were clearly written on it eventually struck him where he had seen it before.

It was the trillion dollar mansion bought by the king of their country a while ago that was circulating around.

Even though he wasn't a political person, he could not help but notice  the amazing sight of it.

He was beginning to place two and two together with his eyes bulging out from his head still lost in his thoughts.

"Could it be?" He was numb for quite a while still thinking.

  • 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.

    Ariel felt as if she had taken a massive blow to her gut.She doubled over, the lights from the cameras suddenly blurring her vision.Was this really happening? 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

Having a child was a good thing, but Ariel wasn't sure she was ready for the changes her poor body was about to undergo.The parking lot housed a lot of cars, and it made her wonder if she wasn't the only one who had received the strange invite.Grabbing her phone from the purse slung over her shoulder, she tried calling Richard again.When his number went into voicemail again, she swore under her breath.Where was he this time and why wasn't he picking his calls? 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.
