Chapter 6 - Young Master
- With a sweat beaded face, John chuckled and said, “Young master, I knew that everything you just said now is true and that's even the reason I need your forgiveness. I was the one who put you through all those nightmares by not taking my responsibilities of protecting you from harm as assigned to me by Sir Chile.
- “Also, you're still my young master because you're the owner of Ultimate Groups. My Boss and your father, Sir Chile, secretly established the Ultimate Groups while he was still alive. Back then, he told me that he didn't want your uncle, Mr James Chile to know anything concerning Ultimate Groups nor did he ever wanted the general public to know anything concerning his involvement with the Groups. That was why he became the behind-the-scene founder and CEO and made me the general manager of the Groups.
- “After that, Sir Chile instructed me to reveal the truth to you after his passing away. He told me to hand over the company to you when he was gone to the land beyond. He specifically charged me to ensure your safety and happiness, making sure that your uncle and the society didn't ill-treat you in any way. However, I failed him. I failed to discharge my responsibilities as I was supposed to. Since then, my mind has never been at ease.
- “Young master, please forgive me. If you do not forgive me, my mind will never be at ease.
- “Also, to make up for my lapses, I have prepared this bank black card and a newly built villa at Kings Gardens Court for you. This card contains two hundred billion dollars and its secret code is your birth-date. Please accept them and forgive me young master. Also be rest assured that I will always be at your service whenever you need it.” Saying this, John brought a bank black card from his pocket, placed it before Paul and groveled again, hitting his forehead on the grown for five consecutive times.
- Paul was dumbstrucked by John's revelation, and he became very emotional.
- A thick air of awkward silence hovered around them and seized up the entire exquisite underground mansion.
- Paul was very emotional after the shocking revelation by John Moore. He was completely lost in the wilderness of emotional, sorrowful and deep thoughts with the memories of his past ordeals reeking sorrows in his emotional mind.
- John Moore remained rooted on his knees grovelling his forehead before Paul without daring to stand up since he didn't get such a response from him.
- In Paul's ocean of sorrowful memories and thoughts, he remembered how his both parents died terribly from a fatal road accident and how they were buried unceremoniously by his heartless uncle as if his parents were evil birds despite their influence and wealth. How his uncle accused him of squandering his own parent's wealth simply because he invested his personal savings and part of his upkeep into Bitcoin, and drove him out of his parents' house after seizing their business empire. He remembered how he was made homeless and was left to suffer unquantifiable mockery, rejection, hardship, and humiliation from all nooks and crannies of the society, including those who wouldn't have even had the privilege of seeing him live except for watching him from the national and international television shows. He remembered how he was unjustly prisoned for years by Bryan Knot and his family. How he was ridiculed, humiliated, tortured and rejected by members of Orlan's family. Most sorrowfully, he remembered how Ella dumped him for Bryan after he suffered miserably in the prison dungeon for her sake, social well-being and safety.
- All these memories caused him emotional havoc, forcing tears out of his eyes wrecking his already darkened face.
- While he was completely lost in deep thought, his old phone vibrated and buzzed in with an incoming call.
- The buzzing of the incoming call disrupted his school of thoughts, calling his wandering mind back to his present and he weakly grabbed his phone to see who was calling him.
- He was disappointed to see an unknown number calling him. However, he mustered up some courage to answer the call.
- “Hello,” a sweat but unfamiliar voice greeted his eardrum from the phone and then asked, “Am I speaking with Mr Paul Chile?”
- “Yes, I am Paul Chile but who are you and why are you calling?” replied Paul, his voice as weak and cold as ice.
- “I'm your account manager from Citibank International and I am calling you because of the inflow cash transaction that just occured in your account. From the description of the inflow, it was stated that you did invest in Bitcoin with Binance corporation and its return of investment was what was sent into your account. However, due to international bank policy regulating funds related to cryptocurrency, your account has been temporarily deactivated waiting for you come and prove the evidence of your legal involvement and investment on cryptocurrency assets.”
- “How much is the inflow amount into my account?” Asked Paul with mixed feelings.
- The voice replied from the phone, saying, “I don't know as I can't access your account details right now but the money must have exceeded two trillion dollars for this international bank policy to be activated on your account. Meanwhile, you can come to our head office with the documents and information which I'm going to send to you right after this call to reactivate your account and have access to your money.” saying this, the caller ended the call immediately and afterward sent some text messages into Paul's phone.
- The text messages contained all the information and documents which he was to go to his bank with for his account reactivation.
- “Ha!” Paul exclaimed in confusion and murmured, “Am I day-dreaming right now or what exactly is happening to me?”
- The entire revelation and happenings were very shocking and too good to become reality.
- Paul was again thrown into deep thoughts thinking what the call he had just received meant.
