CHAPTER 7: FALLING INTO HIS TRAP

"No! I didn’t, why? " He asked and Hudson released a sigh of relief.

" The company David is taking care of belongs to you. So, if you had sign it, the company would have officially belong to Florence. " Giovanni mouthed an oh and he snapped his fingers;

" More reasons for them to put the illegal charges blames on me! Woah… so, I own that company? " He asked, lying on the bed as a wide smile appeared on his lips.

" If you really want to work for me, why don’t you get me as much as information as you know. " Giovanni smile widely, staring at Hudson.

" Okay! As you wish. " Hudson replied and Giovanni nodded.

NEXT MORNING- THE GOLDEN AIR NEWS

Live, at the Golden Air News, there are reporters everywhere, all set their cameras, ready to take in the live that’s going to be the headline news of the whole of Accolade Hills. The reporters all received a text message from the Golden family that there will be an announcement today regarding a particular news which they don’t know about.

Fleets of super-expensive cars drove into the area as stand-men rushed out of almost fifteen of them and they all jogged to a limousine, guarding it closely. Some opened the doors and Mr. Golden himself came out with Mr. smith, who’s his father. The Golden has an investigator in the police team, Andrea Golden.

They all marched to the stage with flashes of cameras flickering on them. The reporters weren’t playing at all, none of them wants to miss the factual moments and it’s taking the picture of the moments and exactly what they are going to say.

" The live will start now! " Carly Lawrence, the head reporter for the Golden Air news proclaimed and Andrea came forward with a lot of files in her hand.

" Starting from the actual news that cause an uproar early in the morning last two weeks. It was first announced that Mr. David Gilbert was the one involved in the Embezzlement, Money laundering, Drug trafficking and other illegal acts but was alter announced that it was their live-in-son-in-law, Mr. Giovanni Smith that set up the façade wanting their son to take the blame.

No investigation was carried out and due to how it was connected to the Golden family, we had to investigate privately. " Before she could proceed, many questions started pouring in;

" How is it related to the Golden family? "

" Was your company part of the company’s money that was embezzled? "

" Why don’t y’all sit quietly, take the videos and not ask questions? Any reporter that violates the rule of asking question will be thrown out, not out of here though, just out of the publishing industry. " Carly warned coldly and everywhere went dead silent.

Then, Andrea proceeded; " Mr. David Gilbert was once an acquaintance of the Golden family but when they found out about him being a fraud, they had to send him away. So, when this kind of incident occur, we had to take action against it and not let someone else fall his victim.

Without any further explanation, we reveal to you, the evidence that clearly shows that Mr. David Gilbert is a prime suspect in the case and not Mr. Giovanni Smith. Along the line in our investigation, we found out that Mrs. Gilbert, the grandmother of the Gilbert family also bribed the thugs in the prison to murder Mr. Giovanni Smith so that he won’t be able to expose their secrets.

We are now announcing to the people of Accolade Hills to not blame the Gilbert family for this deed as they are just doing it for family sake. It’s also a good example of Unity among them. This evidence will be submitted at the police station and if by chance, something like this happens in the future, the Gilbert family will be charge guilty for it even if… they are not guilty. "

On saying that, Andrea stepped aside and allowed her uncle to step on stage. Mr. Golden walked up to the stage and announced; " It’s been twenty-three years since we last saw the heir of the Golden family who went missing with his mother. His mother’s dead body was found but he wasn’t. so, I’m using this opportunity to announce that the Golden Heir has been found but won’t be shown to the public for security purpose.

He asked me to deliver the message that goes as; " He stopped for a while, as Sam handed him a letter. He unfold it and cleared his throat before reading it;

" I’m sorry for not coming out today and at the same time, I’m happy to announce my grand welcome back. I’ll be launching my new company and as a starter, I’ll be needing partnership so, any company that meets up my requirements and is accepted to partner up with me, I’ll invest in that company and will legalize the company’s product across the world. " He folded back the paper and cleared his throat one more time before proclaiming;

" If you want to partner up with my son’s company, all your details should be sent to Addams Golden, he’s my son’s general manager. " With that, he left the stage and Carly took over.

" Thank you for your cooperation and I’m glad to announce the end of the live. Thank you so much, my fellow dedicated reporters and I pray our hard work pays off. "

The family got on their feet and was about to leave when the reporters hovered around them. The stand-men were fast enough to cover them from the hungry reporters.

" Mr. Golden, how do you feel about your son’s return? " Reporter A asked and Mr. Giovanni was fast to reply that; " Uhm.. What can I say? I’m really happy about it… I don’t know if y’all can understand but a father without his child is like a barren and any lady that goes through that understands how hell is like… so, I’m really happy for my son’s return. "

" We also heard that your son went missing last twenty-three years because of a conflict that occurred in your family, is that true? " Another reporter asked and Mr. Giovanni scoffed loudly.

" So? Are you saying that one of my family caused the tragic incident last twenty-three years? " He asked, and the reporter chuckled awkwardly.

" If you don’t know something or you’re not sure about it, keep your mouth shut and I hope y’all learn from this. You don’t mess with the Golden family and whatever happens in the family remains in my family. Which company is she working for? " Mr. Golden asked and the reporter hands fell as realization dawn on her.

" It’s Breaking News First…" Sam replied and Mr. golden proclaimed; " From hereon, this lady is now fired from her company and I’m passing this order that no company should hire her ever again. " With that, he stormed off angrily.
