“That bitch, Selena! She dares to take sides with that commoner just because of some powers he displayed plus the useless piece of paper that's making him become so bold? Huh?

As soon as I deal with that man, I promise that I will make sure she rotes in jail for the rest of her life!”

Cornell said in anger as he dialled a series of contacts from his phone the moment he began to pace around in his room.

Somehow, he found it difficult to believe that Reed's words seemed to have some kind of effect he could not understand to the extent that it bothered him and he could not sleep all night.

At first, he thought it was some kind of a joke but then, it turned into something so serious that his heart began to beat in rhythm.

Currently, he thought of the perfect person to call just to deal with that man who thought he would go scot-free. Then, he thought of the most powerful bodyguard who was known to a

few wealthy people.

Only then did a smile appear at the corner of his face. If he co

    “What? Aren't you gonna verify it?” Reed asked in shock, staring at the verification machine he had seen earlier by the side of the gate. Were people now verified according to the clothes they wore? He thought with a scoff. “Do I need to verify anything? It's one thing for you to have this card and it's another thing for you to steal it. You want me to verify it because you know you stole it and it belongs to our boss and so, it will definitely be swiped successfully!”At this point, Reed felt irritated. He had other things to do and not just to listen to some useless people say things that did not seem appropriate. Only then did an officer walk towards the head officer. “Mr Barrack? I think you should swipe the card. Even if he steals it, everyone upstairs will be alerted about what's going on here so they can get a glimpse. If you keep doing this like you did in the past, Mr Smith may get pissed off”“At least if anything happens, Mr Smith plus the officers upstairs will know ho

    The drive to the Smith's residence began as Reed drove as though he had handled a Rolls Royce car in the past. However, that was not true. His father once had a truck he drove and so, he used the same knowledge to drive the same car. A while later, Reed could see the manicured hedges that glowed in warm light as he drove into the Smiths private road. It didn't take a few minutes before he stopped in front of a luxury estate surrounded by high gates and trimmed gardens. Then, a sudden barring sound filled his ears. Immediately, he stopped the car coldly as he glared at the gates. He knew he could easily use his powers to have the gates opened and stop the blasting sound. However, he respected the fact that it was someone else's house.“#code 1, an intruder is right in front of the gate.” Almost immediately, the security officers that guarded the house came together and rushed towards the Rolls Royce car. The sound had alerted them because such a car had never been ridden into th

    Half an hour later, Reed was on the driver's seat while the two boys sat behind. Just as he was about to ignite the engine, he turned to look at him. “You've got something to say? I am taking you both to your family since the blood group turns out to be positive”“How am I even sure that you're right? I don't trust you, man! You seem like a con artist to me!” Tiffins began. “Hey!” Vince yelled out. “I wasn't referring to you. You aren't even a member of my family and you think it's right for you to sit beside me? Just wait until I get on the good side of my mom, I'll kick you out!” He threatened. Reed couldn't believe his ears. He stared at the papers again to confirm what he had seen and truly, they were family. Then, he stared at Tiffins from the rear view and realized that he was only behaving like that because of the wealth the grand uncle had. Then, he scoffed. There was no assurance that the old man would accept them both because that alone would seem like a shock to them

    “What the hell is that all about?” Reed asked in confusion the moment he heard the message. However, Selena did not know whether now was the time to let him know what exactly was going on. It turned out that in the past, as a means of making money, Cornell was involved in a money laundering scheme that centered on lost wealthy young adults. “I don't know how to tell you this but what I am about to show you is what has been going on in the basement of the factory, sir,” Selena replied while he furrowed his brows at her, standing more confused. The last time he checked, factories have no business with anything that was relating to basements.What the hell did Cornell cook down there?Only then did he nod his head while the woman hesitated for a while before she took him towards a dark path in THE factory. A minute later, they were on a stuffy staircase which led to the same basement she was talking about. Then, the sound of a young lad filled his ears the moment they stopped at a do

    At once, the card went through and immediately, a huge sum of money was disbursed from the account. The look on Reed's face became priceless as he heard the gasp and shock that came from them.However, what further shocked them the most was the fact that he did not even blink twice before he did what he did. Some of them had rich friends and relatives and they knew what they did with money. In fact, they sometimes had to hesitate before they could pay any amount of money. It didn't take a while before the officers received their share of the work they had done. Then, their faces became filled with joy. Initially, when they met Reed, they were shocked that this was the person they had come to attend to. However, they could not question the authority of Selena. Now, they realized why she did that. “Thank you very much, Mr Reed. If there's anything else you want us to do concerning renovating this place, you can let us know. We will direct you to the right channel!”The head of the

    Selena? Why would she go the Extra miles just because she wanted to help him? Didn't he tell her not to get involved in it? He could always take care of himself! Reed thought, exhaling out. Truly, what she did melted his heart and he was grateful for it but this was too much!Cornell at once became relieved. Then, a smile erupted from the corner of his lips because he had thought that this woman was probably around because of him. “Oh my dear! You have finally changed your mind when you realize who the real boss is! Don't you think so?” The man asked while she scoffed and glared at him. Is this useless man sick in the head to realize that she is no longer on his side anymore? She could also bet a million times that his workers were also not on his side but because they looked down on Reed, they did not know who the hell boss truly was!“Of course I am not here because of you! Prick!” Selena said almost immediately. Only then did Reed smile lightly. This woman is the definition of
