Chapter 22

• LATER IN THE EVENING. My friend , open the gate i want to talk to Maxwell , i know he's back and there is a very important issue i want to discuss with him, said Martin, how did you know he has come back, asked the guard , how is that your business, if you don't open this gate , i swear i will make you loose your job and you will end up in your miserable village. Martin almost yelled , this attracted the attention of Maxwell who had just woken up, hey, what's all this noise about, he asked, boss someone wants to come in ,will you shut up there? Martin shouted , tell that blockhead to open the gate for me, have been standing here arguing with a fool, what the heck! Maxwell whispered , how did this one know am in , i wanted to leave again without being noticed , open the gate and let him come in, he told the guard since there was nothing else he could do at that point. The guard opened the gate and stepped aside to allow him pass but he could not just pass in peace without knocking his head. Where have you been , we've been sick worried since your phone wasn't going through, that idiot there told me that you went to look for Angel, is it true? he asked, yeah man but i was so unlucky was told she relocated and no body knows where to , i have searched all around the neighboring communities but i couldn't find her, he was lying , he was ready to share his joy with them but after what his guard told him , he just held back his happiness and decided that he will surprise them all with a complete family of all, he can't wait to see them shocked. I thought you had gotten over her, yeah i had actually until i heard someone had seen her, i couldn't hold back so i went out to look for her but it seems happiness doesn't want to locate me, sorry man , Martin patted his shoulder, how about we go out for a drink, he suggested, that's a great idea but i won't stay late, i have business to attend to early tomorrow, i also won't be staying late so we good to go, Maxwell went up to change, in fact he was going to celebrate but Martin thought he was taking him out to drain his sorrows. Martin had come here with a plan , as soon as Stacy told him her spies had seen Maxwell , alone for that matter, they decided to carry out their plan immediately since they knew if he didn't find her , he will not be at his best mood. Grace being led by greed and fame readily agreed to their arrangements , it was funny how the people around Maxwell didn't want him being with his wife, apart from the king, even though , he did not like her at first , he had to accept that she as his sons choice and he respected that. LAZYCASH CLUB. This was their best spot so Maxwell and Martin drove to the place, it wasn't much clouded since it was on a weekday, they got in to a private VIP room and ordered their drinks, after about 30 minutes, Stacy called Maxwell , he didn't know how she also found out he was around but then since Martin knew the it can't be a secret anymore, he looked at him then at his phone, Martin just shrugged of his shoulders, Maxwell picked the call and left the room for the washrooms, Martin did what he had to do, he knew that his friend was very sensitive and he didn't trust a lot of people , that was why he rejected the idea of introducing Grace to him in the club , if their plan was to succeed then he had to drug his drink personally then when he has lost his cool, grace will come in the picture and that is exactly what happened .The next morning, Maxwell woke up in the hotel room half naked and alone, there was a feminine spray on the bedding and he wondered what had happened, his sharp mind went back to when they were drinking with Martin last night , they were laughing out loud while drinking, he can remember a lady approaching their table in the VIP room but he could not remember who she was, he also could not remember what happened after that, he messed up, maybe Martin set him up with someone thinking that he needed a woman or something but whatever it is , it wasn't right, he'll go look for him for an explanation. He got up fast and washed up , he later left the place in a hurry without even having the served breakfast. He had a meeting with one of the underworld colleague who had come a long way to see him for business collaboration, this was a chance he couldn't miss since it would guarantee many years of success, he will come to deal with Martin later, he told himself as he rushed to the hotel where they had agreed to meet. Maxwell was lucky to get to the hotel before is associate , he was famished so he ordered breakfast and ate while waiting for him, he was finished in a few and when the guy he was waiting for Mr Fred came they got down to business, Fred counted his every minute if you are waste his time then you will have to pay for it, Maxwell knew that that is why despite him being a prince , his respect for Fred is great and he can't afford to annoy him. When they came to an agreement , they both signed a document and had each a glass of red wine to celebrate their collaboration after which Fred left immediately, Maxwell too wanted to leave and go back to his little family so he went back to his house and packed up a few clothes in a backpack since the last time he did not carry anything with him, after putting in place what he needed , he took their wedding picture and put it in the bag too, he had to rewind the good memories with her , he did not know how they found out when he came back so since he told Martin that he had not found Angel he knew they would not bother much knowing he was around , Martin would probably look for him in the evening and by then he would be gone, so he prepared and left in the afternoon , he told his guard to tell whoever comes looking for him that he did not say where he was going to. He could not wait to surprise them with his family, the joy he has now is too much , he would like to see how everyone would react seeing them back , and not only Angel but also their two beautiful daughters, they are so beautiful that no one would hate them.
