Trillionaire they never noticed Awake
The sun aleady set, and the day was now dark. Thunder rumbling and strong wind envelope the streets.Scott's eyelids fluttered open as he woke up from his nap. He shifted his gaze towards the small table beside his bed and picked up his phone to check what time it was.The time was 10:15pm.Scott stood up from the bed and stretched his body to make sure he was fully away.'Few hours till the wedding.' Scott mused with a smirk on his face. The day he has been waiting for has finally arrived.'To make sure things go exactly as planned, i better inform Sandro to never call or text me unless i call or texts him first.' Scott pondered internally as he typed away on his phone.{Look, man, tonight is the night. Let me use this time to warn you not to ever call or text me unless i do so first. I don't want you messing up all what i have been working hard for. So, just keep managing the properties over there and forget about me for now, and i am very serious, Sandro. Don't even reply this text

Back in the station, down the tunnel...The group were still gathered around the tunnel as Jordan explained the whole plan to them and what each of them needed to do in order for it to work out successfully.The explanation went on for an hour and few minutes, before everyone finally came to an agreement."So all i need to do is knock out a waiter and get his uniform?" Blake inquired."Yeah. Once you are amongst the people distributing the liquor around, you would have access to almost every where inside the main venue, that way you can inform us if you see anything strange in there." Jordan responded as he wiped the sweat off his head and sat down on his seat to catch his breath.It wasn't wasy explaining something over and over again."And all i need to do is get a fake Id before the meeting that states i am the leader of a certain gang?" Perez also questioned.Jordan facepalmed then let out a heavy sigh before responding."I have explained this countless times, guys." Jordan lament

Jordan wiped the sweat off his forehead and rested his arms on the table infront of him, and a nervous expression etched on his face."Are you okay, Jordan? It's pretty late now and i think you should head home and get some rest." Chief Jim said with a worrisome expression."Nah, i still need to hang around and do some more research and stuffs. If i finish on time, i'll head home. If i don't, i'll just pass the night here." Jordan responded.Chief Jim nodded his head and chose to respect his decision."If you are staying, then i am staying also." Chief Jim spoke up as he sat beside Jordan with a smile."I don't think that would be necessary, Chief. You need to get some rest." Jordan countered.BEEP* BEEP *Chief Jim's phone began to ring in is pocket and he took it out to answer it."Hello, Doctor Manchester." Chief Jim uttered after answering the call."Chief Jim, i just want to inform you that the patient, Marie, is now awake." Doctor Manchester informed.Chief Jim's eyes widened in

'Shit, the cops are here already.' Scott gulped after catching a glimpse of the two officers who had their gazes fixated on him meters away.'I need to act normal in order to avoid raising unesessary suspicion.' Scott took a breath in and out before walking towards the duo."Hey, Scott, good evening." Jordan greeted with a slight smile."What is he doing here?" Chief Jim questioned in confusion while glancing at Scott Carden."You see, Scott is Marie's half brother. He was here that that night she was brought in, and i'm guessing he's here because the doctor already informed him of Marie being concious." Jordan explained.Chief Jim just stood there in confusion as he was trying hard to digest the whole thing."I thought Marie had no family, that's why she lived on the streets, what then do you mean by brother?" Chief Jim questioned, trying to satisfy his curiousity."Marie's mother broke up with Scott's father at a young age and took her to this city to take care of her on her own. Bu

"Jordan, search the lower floor while i go to the top floor! If you say this guy might still be in this building, then we need to act fast!" Chief Jim ordered with a voice of authority and the duo hurridely dashed out of the room to begin their search.Doctor Manchester covered Marie's body and ordered the nurses to clean the room and make sure every single drop of blood was wiped away.The whole thing still seemed confusing to Doctor Manchester and he still struggled to understand just what was going on. 'Did the cops mean that the killer teleported insise here? How is that even possible.' Doctor Manchester pondered in contemplation while glancing around the room.He shifted his gaze towards the window to see if it was tampered with and maybe the person came in through the window, but the window was just intact.'There's no way the person could climb all the way to the window because this is the 5th floor of the building. It's impossible.' Doctor Manchester mused before walking out

Scott walked throgh the streets and took different shortcuts, until he finally arrived back home. He unlocked the door and walked in.His hoodie and trousers were all drenched due to the rain. He took off the clothes before going into the bathroom to get dressed for the wedding.***BACK IN SUNVALE COLLEGE...The party at Santos's mansion still went on even if it's almost midnight. The students within the college's wall diddn't have to worry about gangs roaming about once it's midnight because the college is well protected and gang members could hardly get in.However, there's a rule that a students should return back to their dorms once it's 9pm on dot, but since the party is co-ordinated by the Headmistress's son, she had to overlook it.Robby had been sitting on a small sofa in Santos's room after hearing the words of Lydia and how she threatened to expose him after the party. He didn't take her words seriously earlier due to him being high on Jolly weed, but nos that the weed was

"Trust me, Robby, i didn't do it on purpose. I don't even know the guy. Santos invited me over to his place that night and offered me drink. While having the drink, i smelt burnt ashes in it, but i chose to ignore it. After taking few sips from ths drink, i began to feel dizzy, until i passed out."Lydia explained with tears streaming down her face. Robby already knew what Santos did to her. He spiked her drink with one or two pills of Jolly weed. "I believe you." Robby uttered with his two fists clenched."Really? Why?" Lydia questioned with a surprised expression."Because Jolly weed smells like ashes." Robby responded, clenching his two fists tightly. "He drugged you that night and made the guy rape you so he could get it all on tape, and now that he's got the tape it's easier for him to blackmail and make you not break up with him. That scoundrel." Robby stood up from his seat and began to walk forward with clenched fists."W-where are you going?" Lydia questioned with a worried
Trillionaire they never noticed Man with a weapon
Standing opposite each other in the opulent compound was Robby and Santos. The whole students already paused what they were doing and all eyes were now glued on the ongoing crisis.No one dared to step in."You bastard! I don't know why you have just hit me, but now i am pissed and i am going to kill you!" Santos voiced out as he began to charge towards Robby who just stood there calmly and with an emotionless look.When Santos got in striking distance, he gripped his right fist tightly and punched it out with every strength he had in him.The punch traveled towards Robby's face in an incredible speed, and even Robby could sense the power behind the punch.When the punch was only inches away from Robby, Robby swrled his body sideways, dodging the punch by hair length, and nreeze generated from the punch had caused his long brown hair to move.After successfully dodging the punch, Robby leapt few feets backwards to create gap, but Santos quickly closed in on him and swung out a roundho

An unknown visitor
A few moments after Miranda exited the hall, the wooden door flung open again, and in came a man. The man was tall, clad in a long white native attire. His face was covered with bushy black beards, and a small white traditional cap sat on top of his head. Scott raised his head slowly, and when he spotted the man, he swiftly rose to his feet and reached for the revolver at his belt… but unfortunately, there was nothing there. “Easy now, boy. You don’t want blood all over your beautiful meeting hall, do you?” the man said softly, a smirk evident on his face. He advanced forward slowly, his hands still tucked casually in his pockets. “Who are you?” Scott demanded. “You know, in a vendetta, you should always keep your weapon by your side. But look at you—completely unarmed. I could easily kill you right now,” the man spoke audibly, the smirk still lingering on his face. “I don’t need a weapon to kill a guy like you,” Scott bellowed. “And you don’t have to answer my question… I alrea
Doorsteps
The men and women kept speaking, informing Scott about the business and operations that had taken place while he was away, as well as how Kael had handled things on his own. Scott listened attentively. Deep down, he doubted most of their words. He knew they were only trying to make him believe that Kael was a good guy—but he said nothing.All he did was listen.They spoke for several minutes until they were finally done, and the hall went dead silent.Scott just sat there in silence, digesting everything, his hands resting on the golden table, his eyes glancing at the people sitting around him.After a few moments of silence, he finally spoke up, “Thank you all for your hard work and dedication. You managed to cooperate and work diligently while I was away. I appreciate that.”They all nodded collectively.“But boss, don’t you think Kael should be part of this meeting?” a man among the group questioned. The man was known as Gabriel Veratti.“And why should he be part of the meeting?”
Covering up
Scott retrieved the vulture's feather from Kael to examine it closely. The feather was far bigger than that of normal birds, and it was also pitch black.A vulture...A sign of death.Scott already knew the Arabic men were behind the killing of the guards, but now the footage just confirmed it."Who do you think these men are?" Kael whispered to Scott. "What do you think they want?"Scott stood there in silence for a few moments before shifting his gaze towards Kael. "Did such a thing happen while I was away? Was anyone killed?""No, boss. This is the first time," Kael affirmed, and Scott went mute once again.They know.They waited until he was back before they began the killings. They knew he was back."Give these men a proper burial and make sure their families lack nothing," Scott ordered after a few moments of silence, and Kael bowed slightly. "I also want you to arrange a meeting. I'd like to speak to the high-ranking members in the empire... every single one of them should gath
Vulture's feather
"You don't have to worry about Kael anymore. Now that I'm back, he no longer has the power to harm anyone," Scott affirmed."Are you going to punish him, though? He shouldn't get away with everything he's done. I know I haven't been here for even a month, but in that short time, I could see how terrified everyone was of him. He tortured people day in and day out. That man is a monster," Angela muttered.Scott leaned back in his seat, folding his arms across his chest, a thoughtful expression settling on his face."As much as I hate to admit it, I don't think I can punish Kael," Scott stated."What? Why not?" Angela blurted out, her brows furrowed in disbelief."He kept things running while I was gone. If he hadn't done what he did, the empire might've collapsed entirely," Scott replied firmly."So you're saying you support the way he treated everyone? The cruelty?" Angela asked, her tone sharp with disapproval."I'm not saying that," Scott responded, shaking his head. "I'm just saying
Time to adapt
The Next Morning...The rays of the morning sun flickered into the luxurious room, cutting through the delicate curtains and shining brightly into Scott’s eyes, stirring him from his slumber. With a low grunt, he sat up slowly, the silky bedsheets slipping down his bare chest. He swung his legs off the bed and stretched his body with a deep yawn before moving toward the large window at the far end of the room.As he pulled the curtain aside, the golden sunlight flooded in, casting a warm glow across the marble floor. His eyes scanned the estate grounds. From his vantage point, he could already see his workers hard at work. The guards were patrolling the compound with practiced precision, eyes constantly scanning for any disturbance. Meanwhile, the maids were bustling about, cleaning every corner of the massive property with quiet efficiency.Scott stood there for a few moments, taking it all in—the return to normalcy, the subtle hum of activity that came with power. With a deep breath
Feather
Meanwhile… Elsewhere on Scott’s estate…In a quiet, deserted section of the property, four guards sat in a loose circle on wooden chairs, their flashlights clutched in their left hands while their rifles hung over their shoulders. The air was cool and thick with silence, broken only by the occasional rustle of leaves or the chirping of distant insects.They were stationed near the outer boundary of the estate—a less-traveled area that bordered dense woods. "I can't believe boss is back, man." One of the guards said, raising his plastic and sipping the gin he held in his right hand."I can't believe that after all these months he finally returned. Many said he was dead, some said he abandoned the empire because of all the responsibilities. But he's finally back." Another guard spoke up, and a joyful expression evident on his face."I'm really glad he's back. Even though I haven't met him or see him, I know he's a good and generous man. He increases our salary every month back then. No
Position
Scott walked up the staircase, ascending toward his room with slow, deliberate steps. When he reached the door, he paused for a moment before pushing it open. Scott stood silently at the threshold, his eyes sweeping across the space as a distant, unreadable expression settled on his face.The room was exactly as he had left it months ago. Not a single thing seemed out of place. There were no cobwebs in the corners, no dust blanketing the surfaces—clear evidence that the maids had continued tending to it regularly. They must have believed he would one day return, and they had kept it in perfect shape, almost as if time had stopped here."At least he didn't touch my room," Scott murmured to himself, stepping inside and gently closing the door behind him.He moved toward the bed and sat down heavily, leaning his elbows on his knees, his back hunched and his mind consumed with thought. His face remained expressionless, but his eyes told a different story—one of confusion, disappointment,
Welcome back, boss!
Scott ran his fingers through his sleek black hair and paced back and forth on the raised platform. The things he was hearing now were vastly different from how things had been just months ago. It felt like everything had changed completely—as if he had been gone for years—yet it hadn't even been a full year since his departure."You mean Sandro never used the money I sent him to support the companies?" Scott finally questioned, his voice edged with disbelief."No, he didn’t," Kael replied audibly. "Whenever I told him the company was running low on cash, he would say we should manage because you hadn’t been answering your calls. The company was slowly going bankrupt because there was no money to sustain it. That’s why I took those loans.""Sandro?" Scott echoed bitterly. "How could he do this to me? I trusted him.""I don’t think now is the time for you to worry about that, boss. You literally just got back home after months. You should’ve told me you were coming—I would have—""What
Everything's changed
Kael stood motionless on the raised platform, a puzzled expression evident on his face as his eyes locked onto the sleek black car slowly driving onto the green field. The murmuring of the crowd faded into a tense silence as all heads turned to watch the vehicle approach. A thick wave of curiosity and unease swept through them, each person wondering who could possibly be inside.They all recognized the vehicle. It wasn’t just any car—it was a limousine reserved exclusively for the highest-ranking members of the empire. But all known high-ranking figures were already present on the field. The presence of this particular car raised an immediate and unsettling question: who else could it be?Down on the wooden platform, Jude Gallagher remained on his knees, his wrists still bound. He squinted at the advancing limousine, his breath caught in his throat. Then, slowly, a wide grin crept across his bruised face.“He’s… back,” he muttered softly, the words barely a whisper, yet somehow still
