3 Nathaniel Is Made

I walked into my office building, and everyone that wasn't in their duty post rushed back to his or her desk, a look of terror on their faces, I wondered if I have that effect on them

I had come in through the back door thereby catching them unaware; that was because my driver was late, and called at the last minute to excused himself; I have to drive myself to work, and pack the car in the garage thereby coming in from the back instead of been dropped off at the front of the building.

I ignored them and walked straight to the elevator, thinking off one million ways to punish my driver.

In my office, I walked to my desk which is all leather and sat down.

I look all around me and everything screamed money; from the furniture to the all glassed penthouse walls.

I had inherited this business from my dad and at that time there were only four luxurious buses that run from the west of the country into the east.

I had built the business beyond my expectations. I have over five hundred buses running to and fro all the state of the country, transporting both goods and passengers.

I am also into all forms of transportations; when a friend had suggested air transport, I had bought the idea Immediately and since I had enough money to invest. Now I have my airline.

I was given some goods too large for buses and I have to move them by train and the corporation was so slow in delivery; I offered to buy some coaches and motor engine to run my goods while I pay some charges to run it on the rail the government agreed bending the law a little. Now I have four private train line, I also have a shipping line.

I, later on, ventured into hotels as most of my passengers needed a place to spend the night when they arrived late; leading to all the hotels, supermarkets and mails I have in all the big cities of the country.

This building was made of wood, a bungalow shakes that looks so horrible from the outside and a bit presentable on the inside when I took over. All that has changed, as this building is the tallest in the area with twenty-seven floors. I also have seven buildings like this in this state so I can navigate easily.

I can confidently say; I am super-rich, but then I have an obsession, an obsession I stared at every morning, and to subdue this obsession, I threw myself into work and that has yielded all this great success.

Caroline is my obsession, she became one the day she disgraced me openly. I have her picture on my desk and I stare at it with so much hatred and passion.

I look forward to the day I will take my revenge. I had not moved in on her yet, and close this deal all this time; because I needed the passion as a driving force.

One could ask why I hold on to a woman's talk, one I am sure no one remembered but me. I ask myself this question all the time too, but I know I couldn't just laugh over her statement.

Something inside of me snapped that day, driving me to want to make all the money I can ever make, then throw it in her face and laugh her to scone; this is for rubbing my feeling on my face.

I know I felt something for her and the pain was so much that I shot me off. I stopped attending parties, cut down my entire social life, short down any female that took interest in me. I could say that that part of me died and I buried myself into work and school. When my Dad died I managed both school work and the business. The instant I graduated, I throw myself completely into my work and with my team, it has finally paid off.

I knew Caroline seek out for me weeks after she disgraced me, but I avoided her like a leech. Why say something so openly when you will want to apologize in private. Why choose her friends over me and then keep me as her little dirty cupboard secret. That's total bull's shit. I know I will never be able to forgive her, so I made myself unreachable to her. I will be found when I am ready for her.

I have been monitoring her though, the day I saw her engagement on Facebook, I almost had a heart attack. God, I have to question my motive and tell myself it just because I won't be able to put my revenge plan to use; because Gods knows revenge or not I won't sleep with a married woman.

I am just now keeping tag till she gets married, then I will let my revenge go or plan a new one.

Planning a new one more likely; this will now include two people, herself and the unfortunate man

Sitting I picked up my phone and open her Facebook page as a daily routing anyway, I stared at her picture and her status that stated single, then I stop; she is single again and my lips lifted in a smack, I just knew luck as shine on me and my plans, it is now or never. I picked up my phone and called my friend Mathew, who I paid to keep a close tab on her. He picked up after four rings

"Hello Mat what's up"

"Nothing many men, how are you and your lovely bitches oh sorry I forgot loveless life?" he questioned back.

"Mat doesn't even go there, don't you see my date on the social network and tabloid." I fired back

"You wish, tabloid indeed, I doubt they will ever find you, you the most silent millionaire ever" he joked

"What is the need for all the noise?" I said seriously

"I am sure you didn't call to discuss your loveless life with me" he deadpanned

"Mat, what do you have on Caroline? That's why I called" he practically laughed out at the other end, when he noticed he was laughing alone he said

"Why won't you just let this go? He asked

"If you were me will you," I ask "don't answer that," I said immediately and he laughed again. "So what do you have?" I asked again patiently, I know he will get to it if I am patient enough. He had begged me time without number to drop my revenge, he said it was pointless judging from the fact that I wasn't poor back then and will never be poor, but I told him he won't understand; he was not the one that had his image bruised. And then we argued back and front and as usual end the argument with him giving me the info I need.

"She lost her job recently, her bank did a meagre and they had to let her go, but."

"Perfect," I cut in quickly "now I can find a way to employ her in one of my branches and then carry out my revenge," I said laughing sarcastically. Immediately working the modalities in my head

"Sorry man she has a job now." He was almost not audible I snapped out of my thoughts

"What man? can you say what's up and stop taunting me" I said angrily

"I was, if only you allowed me to finish. She lost her job to the bank meagre, but got a very less paying job at a flower shop in ikoyi."

"I need the address immediately," I said immediately, quickly making a mental note to send flowers to Florence and set her up as my temporary girlfriend. She had been on my beck and call as a cheap fuck for more than four years. I must plan this quickly and carefully

"Man slow down I have other things to do" I heard Mathew said

"Mat, please do not cross me, I pay you for this," I said angrily losing my patient.

"And I feed on the peanut you pay" he fired back

"It might not be much but it pays at least one or two of your fucking staffs" I said more annoyed now this fucker is interrupting my plans

"Man calm down, what is it with you and this girl, man get a grip man"n

Matt don't mess with me please I need that address ASAP I can't wait another engagement from her

"Ok o check your mail" I check and saw he had already sent the address.

"Why do you like teasing me so much, get the fuck off my phone?"

"Why not now that you have the info you need" he said laughing heartily

"Just FFF OFF the...." I scream as the line went dead.
