Nathan who was always cautious about his environment at this time had no idea that someone has entered his ward. He pouted like an aggrieved child and begrudged. "What do you mean by am I happy? Did you say it for me to be happy or because you meant it?"Hilda didn't know how to respond. Of course she said it because she meant it. But knowing how narcissistic Nathan was, she didn't want to admit it. As she was thinking about how to respond, she caught a glimpse of someone else in the video call.She was so shocked that she had her mouth wide open. Using her eyes, she was trying to get Nathan's attention to someone standing behind him. But Nathan was so focus on how Hilda should call him that he had no idea what she was trying to do."Is something wrong with your eyes? Why are you opening them this wide? And why is your jaw dropped? Close your mouth. Or you are trying to scare me?" He asked confused.Hilda shook her head at him. But he still didn't get it."Babe, are you okay?" He aske
"Dad, I'm married. And before you all will get mad, you all should hear me out first." Nathan said.Mr. Clemon couldn't believe his ears. "What's there to listen to? Who did you get married to?" He asked."Dad, I don't think you might remember who she is." Nathan replied."What do you mean by that? Is she from any of the reclusive families?" Mrs. Clemon asked.Although the four great families had immerse influence and wealth, there was also the reclusive families. They were two families with elite members in every sector. Although they have wealth and power, they were second to the four big and powerful families.As Nathan would have to marry someone from his own social background, Gloria had been the perfect match since she has both the power and wealth as their family and not forgetting, she was childhood sweethearts with Nathan.But Now that Nathan is married and not with Gloria, it was only reasonable that he would choose someone from the reclusive family to be his wife. Because a
Hilda who was so anxious after Nathan hanged up the call was just asking Nuella non stop questions about what she thinks was happening between Nathan and his mom.. "Do you think they might know by now?""Do you think Nathan has told her?""If he did tell her, will she like me?""What would she think about me?""Maybe Nathan told him something else and not us being married.""Nuella what do you think?" She looked up at Nuella at this time.Nuella sighed as she looked at the anxious Hilda."Say something already Nuella. I'm going crazy just by thinking about it.""Calm down Hilda. I know Nathan's parents and I'm sure they will be glad to find out that Nathan is finally married and to someone as pretty as you are.""You shouldn't be worry because this I know for a fact, Mrs. Clemon will adore you like her own child." Nuella held her by the hand, knelt in front of her in the wheel chair and told her looking straight into her eyes.Nuella had hardly finished when a phone rang. "Your phone
Mrs. Clemon turned to face Nathan just as the call ended and notice his face was contorted into that of rage. She knew Hilda's illness wasn't just an accident. She was about to ask Nathan for an explanation as to why Hilda was in a wheel chair when her husband spoke up."From her voice, I could tell she is a little timid." He had been sitting on the sofa all the while the call was on going. Although he had wanted to meet Hilda too, as a senior as he is, he knew a call wouldn't be the right platform.Nathan relaxed his brows after he heard his dad."Nathan what happened to her? She was in the hospital and in a wheel chair?" Mrs. Clemon asked confused.Nathan bit on his teeth so hard that one could hear the sound of his teeth's grinding. "I was careless and she ended up being a target of an assassination. She did survive but her legs..." Mr. Clemon and his wife couldn't believe what they heard. What did Nathan mean by he was careless? Is she like that because of him?"What happened?""
"Alright Mr. Kyle." Sarah nodded."By the way, how can I be of help Mr. Kyle? Would you like me to exchange some chips for you or you want me to join you for a meal?"Kyle shook his head. "None of those. I would like you to lead me to your employer, Mr. John Remz."Sarah was taken aback by his sudden request. "A.. are you a friend of his?" She asked uncertainly.Kyle merely smiled mysteriously. "No I'm not.""Oh, you must be here to talk business with him then. I'm afraid but I'm not the right person for this. May I suggest speaking to the supervisor of our....""There is no need to trouble another staff while I have your assistance." Kyle interrupted calmly. "I'm sure you will be able to handle this task well." He added.Sarah began to sense that something was amiss. Could these people be here to cause trouble? She thought.Because of her lowly position as a hostess, she was not authorized to enter the owner's office despite knowing where it was."I can't be of help with that." She
Not long after, Sampson returned with a smile on his face. "Mr. John is very interested to hear your preposition. Please follow me. But you can only bring one of your men in with you. The other will have to stay out here and wait on you."Kyle ordered for James to remain behind while Gasper and he followed Sampson and walked towards a heavy set of wooden doors.The office was the size of a basket ball court. At the opposite end stood a desk with a life size statue of the owner himself next to it.John Remz himself was at that moment seated upon the chair behind the desk. His feet adorned with loafers made of alligator skin were placed on the table.A large cigar hung from his lips as he studied Kyle and Gasper. "I've heard that you have a multi billion business proposal. How should I address you?" He said with a smile.Flanking him on both sides were eight massive bodyguards, who stood staring internly at Kyle and Gasper for any signs of trouble.Kyle looked as if he was in the comfor
"Now, are you ready to hear my terms?" Kyle asked calmly continuing their negotiation as if nothing had happened.John trembled. "Anything you say Mr. Michel. Anything.""Not three hundred billion, not three billion. I will pay you three bucks, in exchange, you will let Joey Clemon leave with me and clear all his debts."Despite his fear, John was outraged. "No way!" There was no way he will just let Joey go without getting his money. If he did, he will be at a very great loss.Kyle raised his foot and brought it crashing down onto John's left knee with a loud crunch."Ahhhh!" John screamed in agony."Just so we are clear, I am not seeking your approval in this matter. I am ordering you to release him." Kyle voiced.As he was speaking, he broke John's other leg in a similar fashion.Despite having both legs broken, John the influential figure in the underground circle in Eagles land did not get to where he was by succumbing easily to threats. Instead, he attempted one last act of defi
Twenty four hours later after the grim encounter in Eagles Land, Kyle and the rest appeared in Nathan's ward as he was just finishing his dinner."We found out about how all these was orchestrated." Kyle spoke up after checking up on him.Although Nathan was all better, the burns has still left some scars and wounds that needs to be treated. Nathan had expected Kyle to get all the news so he wasn't the least shocked when he heard him. But he just frown and asked. "Who is behind all this?""It's complicated. But your uncle and Christopher have just been puppets in it. They play vital roles than those behind it all together though. The Despite Group had sent a man called Derrick Hem to deal with you. But as he knew that it will be difficult to get to you, Joey was used in a ploy to get his dad to act against you whiles Mr. Richards also used Christopher after catching in on his secret of murdering his assistant to get to Hilda." Nathan's anger flared up at the news. It was the Despite
