Billionaire Ascendancy

I thought about it and none of it actually made sense to me. Why Calling me all of a sudden and wanting me to live with him? And why did he even want me to go to a country to look for grandpa?

“Can I ask you a question Derek?” I asked as he nodded his head. “Can you tell me the reason why grandpa suddenly approached me but never showed up even after my parents had died?

I ask as he took a deep breath, his gaze narrowed to the ground.

“I do get your point Stefan but…. grandpa had been looking for you ever since he Heard of your parents death but couldn’t because he had no clue of where you’re staying. “So recently, I heard that you’re living with the Black family which was how I was able to hear about you and I was even planning to visit you before when I suddenly saw you that day at the cafeteria.

He uttered as I took a deep breath, still waiting for his whole explanation about the whole thing because I’m not just getting his point at all.

“One of your grandfather’s relatives, Sofia ” is in need of blood transfusion. Your grandpa is currently in need of blood transfusion and I think you’re the perfect fit for it. Grandpa wants you to donate blood for her Stefan! Sofia is the most cherishable granddaughter grandpa had ever had and he wouldn’t want to lose her which was the reason why he had told me to look for you.

And in exchange, grandpa is willing to let you inherit his property, which includes his company. He’s even willing to give you anything you requested as long as you can save his dying granddaughter.

He uttered as my eyes widened open. Gosh that’s such a huge offer. But I’m I willing to accept Such offer? no! Not totally no! So grandpa thinks that he can bribe me with that? He should go ask his other grandchildren for blood transfusion if he’s really willing to save her

“I’m sorry Derek but I don’t think I can do Such thing”. I know that grandpa wants to use me for selfish reasons but I aren’t going to accept it”. If he really cared about me, he would have called me a long time ago. But now he has been looking for me because he thinks that my blood matches with his granddaughter’s own”.

“Please think about it Stefan, your life would become tougher and harder if you don’t accept his offer”. Derek did have a point on what he’s saying but that doesn’t matter right now because I believe that with the 10 Billions dollars in my account, I should be able to do whatever I want to do. I don’t think I can accept such an offer.

“I think I should get going Stefan, you can always give me a call whenever you change your mind”. He Said as I scoffed.

“I’m sorry to turn down your request and grandpa’s own but I don’t think so, please help me tell him that I’m not interested in his property or anything! Just tell him to leave me alone and never perturb me about anything again”.

And of course Derek walked away. I just hope he would never call me concerning my grandfather again.

I took a deep breath as I went back. Going back to the Black family, I think I should be prepared for another round of insults again.

And two days later, he never called me, just as I had requested of him. I’m sure he must have told grandpa everything I said about him and he must have gotten really mad at me. But that doesn’t really matter anyway because thanks to him, I was able to have 10 Billions dollars which I had never gotten in my Life before. It’s such a big opportunity for me and I’m going to respect grandpa for that. If not, I would have deleted and blocked his number a long time ago.

But I can’t. Let it not look like I’m an ungrateful person by having his number block ago. I could hear some noise coming from the sitting room as I was inside my room.

It was Alexander Black’s voice. Could it be that he’s back from the business trip? I thought as I stood up and walked downstairs and of course, my curiosity wasn’t wrong at all. He was really back from the business trip which he had gone to.

Looking at his facial expressions from where I was standing, he looked very sad and troubled.

And just as his wife notices the strange countenance on his face, she has to ask him what was wrong as he takes a deep breath.

“I’m just tired!!” He uttered devastated and frustrated as he sat down.

“I don’t just know what to do honey!!” He said Such romantic words for the first time. Referring to his wife.

“You know I’m here for you sweetie, you can tell me whatever that’s wrong okay “.

“Recently, the Black’s family business has been going From different crises to another “. He said with a serious face as I sighed. I guess he never thought such a powerful business as the Black family could crash down. I’m sure he’s totally surprised with the way they’re going bankrupt. But what he doesn’t know is that any business could crash down at any moment.

One just has to use sense while ruling a company.

I returned back to my room feeling bad for him. If I had enough money I would have helped him because of what Alexander had been doing for Me ever since I came to this house. He had always stood as a father for me but I feel so sad knowing how jobless I was and knowing that I wouldn’t be of any help to them. I’m I really that destitute and poor just as people have said?

I just hope and pray that his plans will work out. Because he said that he was going to hold a conference in the company, hoping that the shareholders would help to get money to solve the crisis together.
