The Rude Rich Girl
Episode 54
No matter how famous you are, no matter how popular you are, when someone humiliates you, you will definetely feel weak, humiliated, disappointed, devastated and intimidated. At Bankole's Limited the next morning, the number trending article on the company's website are three different porn videos. The staff were ultimately Suprised that the chairman was a very great porn star. Now those that are involved in the video with him did not even come to work that morning and they are the set of people that went ahead to seek for double promotion.
"Wow! He is a disgrace to CEOs in this state, how could he do such shameless thing?" One of the directors said.
"I am regretting working in this stupid company" another man said.
"And he even had the gut to post such thing on the company's server. Is he crazy?" Another woman said.
While everyone were busy side talking, the chairman entered the company and noticed that the mood was quite dull. He was not aware of the news but his staff kept giving him a deadly stare. He did not pay attention to them but after moving forward a little, He saw two guys watching something on a phone and He told them to give him the phone. The two guys were shocked to the bone and did not want to give him the phone because they knew He could fire them. Sydney signalled to one of his guard and they forcefully collected the phone from one of the guys.
Sydney did not believe what He was seeing. It was a live video of him having sex in his office of all places and the video was on the company's server again. Why would He decide to post such video on his company's server when He is not crazy? While he was deliberating, somebody called him and guess who? You guessed right, it was his doom calling.
Alex: Day 3 gone
Sydney: Alex?
Alex: Did you see my signal? Come on! I never knew you were such a porn star. You shouldn't have studied business administration at Orlando, that was not your ministry.
Sydney: [Shouted] Alex! You bastard? How did you get my server details?
Alex: That a dumb question. I hacked it simple just like I will hack your life in twelve days time. You will die slowly and painfully, I promise you for the people you have killed for your father and for calling Yinka a toy.
Alex hanged the phone and Sydney angrily threw the phone of that guy on the floor and it got smashed. He walked to his office and deleted the video from his server but quite unfortunate for him, it was on Alex's personal blog and the world was still watching. While was pondering on what to do, the company's marketing manager ran to his office to tell him that the company stock has dropped crazily and their stakeholders were beginning to withdraw.
Sydney was so frustrated and angry with the way Alex was toying with his life.
"Alan! Take one of the company's new registered car and monitor that guy, He must die tomorrow, nothing should change that" Sydney said facing his most trusted guard.
"Copy that boss! Consider it done" Alan replied Sydney.
Now, the truth is that Alex knew Sydney was going to do something stupid and as it is, his prediction was getting correct.

The girls could not contain their excitement as Sydney was falling gradually. Although, they still saw what Alex posted as crazy because the video was more or less like a porn video and that's how Sydney do pound them back then during their stay in Orlando.
Yinka: Only God even know where the Alex is sef. I sent someone to check his mum's house and the person told me they have moved. I have been calling his number for more than 48 hours now, he is not picking his calls.
Caitlyn: Is Alex a baby? You know He is always hunting.
Funmi: And He has told us before that anytime we call him and he is not picking, it means He is hunting.
Yinka: I just hope He is not in trouble. Let me try Kenny's number
Yinka dialed Kenny's number and fortunately for her, she picked up.
Kenny: Hello sis!
Yinka: You did not even bother to call someone since you left here. Is that fair?
Kenny: Am sorry sis. I have been busy and we just moved to our own site.
Yinka: Wow! Your own site?
Kenny: Yes! I made mention of my late father's house to you that the family collected from us.
Yinka: Yes! Even Alex told me about it.
Kenny: The house was sold to a micro finance bank and my brother bought it back. He brought down the old house and built a massive mansion on it.
Yinka: [Suprised] What? Alex built a mansion? Where is it located? Send me the address.
Kenny: I'll do that right away.

The girls were Suprised that Alex had something big going on and He did not inform them. They all dressed up and on their way to the house, Yinka brought a house warming gift for Alex's mum and on entering the house, it was truly mighty and massive. Funny thing, there was another storey building behind the mansion and they had tenants.
Kenny came out and ran towards Yinka to hug her. After hugging Yinka, she hugged the other girls as Alex's mum came out to receive them. They exchanged pleasantries and congratulated Alex's mum for the new house. They found out that Alex had left the house 24 hours before that time and has not been picking his calls.

My mum texted me that Yinka and the girls were in our house and she really enjoyed their company. I have refused to pick her calls because I am hunting for a big fish as usual. Sincerely, I misssed that girl and no need to argue with my mind, I am Inlove with that girl. If somebody told me eight months ago that I will develop any feelings for Yinka, I could destroy that person's life.
The following day after Yinka and the girls visited my mother, I was suppose to go and see Yinka but I promised Zion to have lunch with him. Remember Zion? Sydney's son that loves me so much. His mother called me that Zion wants to speak with me and the little man told me how He missed me. He said His father promised him a lunch for over two weeks and He has not fufil his promise.
Had i know something bad was about to happen, I would have postpone that lunch with Zion till the next day or weekend. I told his mother to bring him to a very popular restaurant and she agreed without thinking twice. Tolani also liked my presence and we have actually become friends.
I got to the restaurant and waited outside for Zion and his mother. A range Rover drove into the restaurant and Zion was waving at me from the car. He could not even wait to come out of the car and I waited for him. His mother was trying to park and I saw another car outside the restaurant. The car was not driving in and the driver whinned down his glasses and pointed out a pistol at Alex. It was that same moment Zion was running towards me excitedly.
"Zion wait" I shouted but the little boy was not hearing anything. He just wanted to get to where i was standing. The guy shoots at me and it was the moment Zion almost got to me. I tried running towards him as well but Zion hugged me and it was was the moment the bullet hit Zion at his back. The guy shooting found out that He missed his target and still aimed at me and luckily for him, I got a shot on my left hand.

My eyes open gradually and I don't even know where I am but I knew I was not comfortable on the bed I was lying on. My eyes opened slowly and I saw many faces around me.
"He is awake! Get the doctor" A voice shouted and I heard clicking of doors which means someone has truly gone to call the doctor.
"But why am I hearing doctor? Am i in a hospital?" I thought to myself as I opened my eyes clearly. My mum, younger sister, Yinka, Mirabel, Caitlyn, Funmi and Yinka's mum. Now this was beyond my imagination and I can't even lift my left hand. I found out it was bandaged and Yinka face was swollen.
Me: Can somebody tell me what on earth is going on here? Why is everyone crying?
My mum: [Crying] Adesope! What mess have you gotten yourself into? What business have you been doing that you got shot? What are you hiding from me?
I tried to remember what brought me to the hospital and the first person that came to my mind wa Zion.
Me: [Scared] Zion! Zion! Where is Zion? Where is He? We were at the restaurant together?
Mirabel: The little boy that was with you. The boy is dead and his mother right now is going crazy, she is still unconscious.
Me: [Shouted] Zion is dead? No! No! Don't lie to me, that boy cannot die, He is too young. Where is He?
Kenny: Big bro calm down. That boy is dead.
I was not listening to anybody, I disconnected the drip on my hand and stood up from my bed. I was feeling pain on my left hand but the inner pain I was feeling now was crazy. The nurses tried to stop me buh I was able to trace the hospital's mortuary and right in front of me was Zion's dead body. I was calling his name to see if He would wake up and Zion was not even answering me.
I fell down on the floor and cried like a baby. Even when my father died, I did not cry like this because this boy already took me as his big uncle and we were very close.

I entered the mortuary and saw Alex crying very hard on the floor. The girls saw him and we looked at each other. I have never seen a man cry like a baby like this. We moved closer to him and pulled him up back to his ward. Alex did not stop crying and I pulled him closer for a hug.
Me: What is your relationship with this boy?
Alex: His name is Zion Bankole and he is Sydney illegitimate son that I told you about. We became friends two months ago during the incident that Sydney kidnapped my younger sister. He invited me for his birthday, He loves to spend time with me. We do go for games, lunch together. It's been a while we saw each other, so we decided to have lunch together yesterday. He was so excited to see me and was rushing towards me when a bastard from outside the restaurant shot the two of us. I dont know the guy, I have not seen him before.
Mirabel: Alan Mathew, twenty-eight years old and the most trusted ally of Sydney Bankole. Whenever Sydney is busy, He does all the dirty work for him and the car He used is a Toyota Corolla. It was registered under Bankole's Limited.
Alex: [Suprised] Where did you get all this information?
Mirabel: There are CCTV cameras in the restaurant. There is a beautiful tree at the entrance of the restaurant, a CCTV is there, so I got the footage and sent it to Abdullahi to quickly work on it.
Alex: So Sydney killed his own son just because He was blinded with rage? Alan is going down next.
Alex's mum: [Shouted] No! No! I have lost one child, I won't loose another. You are going nowhere, even if it means me tying you not until you tell me everything I want to know from A-Z.
