Billionaire Ascendancy

I could hear Alexander Black asking Ravens about how her conversation with Derek went over the setting room.

“What did Derek say to Isabella?” Did he say he was going to help us? He asked but he noticed that something was wrong with her countenance. “I’m sorry grandfather, but he said that he couldn’t be of any help but to watch the Maxwell family who’s determined to destroy the family business and there’s nothing he can do. She uttered as he hit his foot against the ground in anger.

“Gosh, why’s the Maxwell family so bent on destroying us? Have we done anything bad to them so far? He thought, feeling so Angry and frustrated with the situation he was in.

“I really Made mistake, I made a big mistake letting you marry that useless Man Raven”. He uttered as my heart skipped. I do wonder who he’s referring to.

And of course Raven was curious to know who he was talking about and so was I, as I watched them over the dinner table I was sitting on.

“I would have let you marry Derek back then if I had known that you knew him”. So it was me he was referring to when he says “that useless Man”

“I’m sorry grandfather but it was your decision to get me married to that destitute lunatic poverty man”. Raven said, whimpering in tears as I heaved a heavily sigh of relief.

“I thought maybe he could change Raven I just wanted to save you from Jerry who was way more orderly than you but it seems like I was throwing you to the demonic king of hell who rules poverty. And as a man I was, I gotta bear everything I was hearing at the moment.

“I’m sorry Raven and if it’s not too late you can devoice him”. My heart skipped and my mouth gaped open on hearing him saying that to her. Is he really trying to tell her to devoice me right now because of their small crisis business?

I was going to meet him before and tell him everything; who I was to the Maxwell family and go back to my father who wanted me to donate blood for his granddaughter and I’m sure that with my Such decision their business will all go up again and stand firm once again but his harsh words change my thoughts.

But I must not really expose myself to them anyway because I feel like it isn’t necessary at the moment. Maybe I could just help Alexander in a different way without letting him know my identity.

Raven stood up sobbing as she went to her room. I quickly pretend like someone who was entering the dinner Room as I pull Alexander’s attention with my voice.

“Alexander, please can you give me the opportunity to talk to you once again before you will start insulting me”. I Said to him, letting him know my mind as he gave me a go ahead gaze.

“I think I can help with the ongoing crisis over your family business”. I uttered , giving him the topic of the discussion first as he put his full attention on me. “How, I don’t mean to be rude but I Don’t think you will be able to or do you have someone to help us?” He asked as I ruffled my hair, finding a way to tell him how I got that 10 Billions in my account. I can’t just say that 10 Billions was given to me by my grandfather. I have to look for a lie to make him believe it.

“Well…. actually, after the death of my parents, I was given an insurance money of 10 Billions dollars in my account and ever since, I haven’t been using it because I just want to save it. So I thought, it will be of help to save the family business from going bankrupt.

Judging by his countenance, he seems shocked. I’m sure he wasn’t expecting this from me. ” here you come again with your words Raven, please don’t tell me that you’re currently lying to me about this? You can’t just walk to me and be talking nonsense. He uttered as I sighed.

“Please accept my offer Alexander I really do hope I could be of more help but this is all I can do to help the family business from going bankrupt. “You’re really surprising me right now Stefan, so you have up to 10 Billions in your account all those whiles!! Then tell me why do you let us bully you and call you an impoverished man anyway? He uttered as I sighed deeply. I don’t just know what to reply to him.

“I really don’t like showing myself Alexander’. I Said so humble. “I’m really sorry for the words I have said bad about you ever since you came into this family and how my wife mistreated you Stefan. I do hope you can forgive us.

“Ohhhh Carson, you don’t have to say that!!” Of course you did what was right as a grandfather anyone could ever have. He hugged me unexpectedly as I said those words. I guess I have finally become his son. Because he was surprised with my actions today.

The next day I gave all the money to him and he couldn’t believe it. But Alexander Later died of anger after all the money was spent on the Black family business but yet they couldn’t get back to their position. He died out of frustration, devastation and anger as he was helpless. Everybody mourns after his sudden and quiet death. He was buried in the next two months and from them, Katherine his wife, took over the family business and everyone respected her as the leader and head of the family.
