Chapter 145
“You have to marry your daughter off to him,” Nell said to Calrton.
“Mother! how can you say this to me? This man is ugly and scary,” Martha protested.
“Mother, don’t worry. As long as you can help us convince this new powerful man to take in Martha, we’ll
make her his,’Edith said, not even minding Martha’s protest.
“Arrange a meeting with him tomorrow morning. Afterall, you are the mayor, he should honour your first
request,” Nell said.
“I’ll do that,” Carlton responded.
When it was the following morning, Carlton, Edith, Martha and Nell stepped down from their range Rover
and walked towards the super big gate that had a very tall fence around it.
Few people in North Hill who had come to this area had always wondered what was inside this large
fence, no one knew that a secretly powerful man resides there.
After the securities had affirmed that there was no harm on them, they let them inside.
In a jiffy, they all sat in a large room then a short but muscular man appeared in a white shirt, white
trouser and white shoe,” I guess you are the mayor?” the man asked casually, looking at the mayor and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe people with him with a demeaning look.
“Yes, yes…” the mayor responded quickly.
“I’m BA’s personal assistant, hold on for five hours. That’s when he will be ready to meet with you,” the
personal assistant said and didn’t wait for their response or reaction before he walked away.
“So disrespectful!” Martha said.
“Keep quiet,” Edith cautioned her.
“Mother, what did you think?” the mayor asked Nell.
“I think he’s just trying to test our patience. My family is about to experience the greatest mockery in
town, I can even wait for twenty four hours to meet with him as long as I can get to partner with the most
powerful man in North Hill,” Nell said. Now that everyone understood that the new most powerful man
was just trying to test their patient, they all waited for him in silence,
Precisely five hours later, two men in black appeared, another two men in black appeared, two, two men
began to appear one after the other and arranged themselves around the room.
Nell, Edith, Carlton and Martha were scared at the presence of this people, wasn’t the person that was
supposed to appear be the most powerful man in NorthHill, who are these numerous scary men in
black?
Suddenly, a heavy presence filled the room and the men in black bowed and greeted,” Welcome Ba, the
god of war.”
Fear filled the entire room and then Ba walked nobly to sit at the seat before them,
“Let’s keep this meeting brief, what’s your purpose of coming?” he asked in a very harsh tone.
Everyone seated was shocked with the tone he spoke with, Martha whispered to Nell” godmother, why
does he sound so much like Broderick Alessandro?”
Nell ignored Martha’s question and said to him,” Mr. Ba, it’s so much of an honour to meet with you. I’m
the first lady of the Alessandro’s family. “Nell paused, expecting the man to say something but he just
kept mute, so she continued,” Broderick Alessandro, my godson was the reason behind our company’s
fall. He’s full of himself and sees himself as god. Hence, he made a lot of enemies. He does not know
how to be civil.”
What’s the point?” Ba asked harshly.
“I’m saying that although we have lost everything and will soon become the ridicule of the society, my
second godson, Michael Alessandro is working hard to take the company up to where it use to be. So I’ll
like for your family and mine to be friends,” Nell said.
“If you want your family be friend with me, bring Broderick Alessandro here and let him bow before me,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthen I’ll consider your request,” Ba said.
“That wouldn’t be a problem. Broderick is a useless nonentity now, he would do anything in his capacity
for our family to become friend with you,” Nell said.
Nell had reasoned that as long as her family is in good terms with Ba, the new most powerful man in
North Hill, then no one would be able to ridicule or bully the Alessandro’s family.
The mayor coughed nervously and said,” Mr. Ba, thanks for giving us the chance to meet with you. With
the little research I make about you, I don’t think you have a woman with you, I may be wrong,” The
mayor said. Hoping that Ba doesn’t get angry.
“So? Ba asked.
“Erm…this beautiful daughter of mine is a virgin and doesn’t have any boyfriend. I would like to give her
to you, if that pleases you, Mr. Ba,” Carlton said.
Ba glanced at Martha who tried to hide her face from this ugly and scary man.
I’m not interested in her,” Ba said, making Martha let out a thankful sigh of relief.
“Erm…Mr. Ba, would you at least grace my birthday then? It’s happening in seven days time?” Carlton
asked. He quickly added. Please, sir.”
I won’t come. It’s time to leave,” he said, stood and walked away from them.
The people seated in the living room looked at themselves in surprise.
