chapter Ten
"Get out," The man said as he looked at the man that was in front of him. Behind the man were seven emissaries of sins. The man was the fearsome devil of the devil organization.
"Is that how to greet your blood brother?" Devil asked the guy while glancing at the lady and checking whether she would be surprised.
"You've already told her," Devil said when he did not notice any emotion on the lady's face.
"You are not my brother and besides how did you find me" The guy asked.
"Can't believe you can be asking how I got you when we are blood brothers" The devil said.
"Humph I detest being with someone like you, get out I don't want my family to mingle with people like you," He said.
"Great, the favored daughter of the moon and the devil fell in love. What a forbidden love giving birth to a forbidden offspring" The devil smiled as he said while looking at the boy that still had the maturity of a child.
"I'm not here for a fight, just hand over the lady and her son to us. You know how important she is to the organization" The devil said.
"You have to get through my dead body first," The guy said.
"If that's what you want" Devil's demeanor suddenly changed into a dangerous one.
********************************************************
The Johnson Corporation will be ushering in a new age today because they want to inaugurate the new CEO of the group. This is a worldwide event because Johnson Corporation influences the economy of many companies in the world. They control thirty percent of the natural resources of the company. Different rich tycoons from all around the world with their heirs attended the event. New York that day became filled with the sight of different luxurious cars. They were not only here because of the inauguration ceremony but because that co-thenakekeeplace unwillingly said that the new President created them. They wanted to see if the company would still create a surprise just like they created with the virtual game that they are still known for today.
A J Lamborghini Trevita family car stopped in front of The Wallace Hotel which was one of the most influential hotels in the city. The staff of the company were already waiting for the president outside the hotel, the moment the car stopped, reporters who had been waiting outside rushed towards the car. Two security guards came out from the first seats and they opened the door for the people inside to come out. The first set of people to step out from the family car was Lucifer Johnson who is the CEO of the Johnson agricultural branch and his wife. They bombarded him with questions immediately after he came down from the car.
"Does Mr Tiger want to hand the mantle over to you?"
"How do you feel about today's event" Different questions were directed at him but he did not bother to answer, he just moved to the side. Tiger Johnson came out from the car next. Immediately he came out from the car, the reporters moved back as if they had been struck by lightning. The next person to come out from the car was Lucas. They all entered the hotel, it was after they entered that the reporters were able to regain their bearings. Meanwhile, Elizabeth already saw him,
"Finally got you," She said as she smiled.
"What's the matter," Her father who was with her asked.
"Nothing" She answered.
The family entered the lobby where the guests and the visitors were already sitting for them. After a formal introduction and exchanging of pleasantries, Tiger walked to the stage. Everywhere turned silent immediately he got on the stage. This is the lion of the business world. The one businessman who has thrived upon the destruction of many companies.
"Good evening everyone" He greeted. Every businessman there raised their cups to cheer for him.
"As you all know the reason for this, I am here to announce the new president of the Johnson Corporation," Tiger said.
"Let's welcome the first son of Mr. Lucifer Johnson and Mrs. Stacy Johnson who is also my grandson, Lucas Johnson" Tiger said as everyone turned around to see this youth. He had been known as the son of the two but it was only recently, that he had been living a low-key life not allowing anyone to know about him. He attended different overseas schools using another name only the head of those schools knew his identity. They looked at this mysterious handsome youth who looked like he was eighteen years old.
"Why the hell will Tiger Johnson give the whole Johnson Corporation to a person as young as this" Was the thought on their mind. The businessmen's eyes shone as they looked at their daughters, the lady's eyes also shone. Lucas is now a money mine to them. Only Elizabeth knew things are not as simple as it is. Lucas went to the stage under the smiling gaze of Tiger, Tiger moved to the side and he occupied the stage.
"I thank everyone for attending this event and I am honored to be given this noble position. I would like to thank my grandpa, my parent and the whole family for agreeing. And to the companies here, I hope that we can work together to bring this world into a new golden age. It starts from here and from the auction that will happen in the evening" He said.
"Cheers" He raised the bottle of wine in his hand up. "Cheers" The CEO all raised their bottle of wine and they all gulped it down.
After the inauguration ceremony, what happened next was the CEOs of the companies came to greet him and congratulate him while also introducing their youngsters to him, especially the lady. After all who would not want to connect to the president of the whole Johnson Corporation especially when he is this young? He saw Elizabeth and her father walk towards him, the old man laughed wholeheartedly while he toasted him.
"Don't be a piggy head like your grandpa in the future" The five-star general said. Tiger was also a soldier but he stopped at three-star general, the five-star general was one of his few best friends.
"Hey, buddy you are spoiling me in front of my grandson again" Tiger said as he walked towards the general and they exchanged pleasantries. Tiger's eyes also shone with a strange light when he saw Elizabeth,
"Is that your small daughter?" He asked. The general nodded in confirmation. Elizabeth bowed her head towards Tiger and they exchanged greetings.
"Why don't we leave the youngsters to know themselves better," Tiger said as he dragged the general away.
