Chapter 98: Father
The scene shifts. And we see Adam. He was still in his apartment. Another man was sitting in front of him on the sofa. Adam was looking very nervous. Then the man spoke. "Just as I thought. You are still in the same place where I left you."
Hearing this Adam wanted to say a lot of things. But he could not say anything. He just sat there in silence.
Then the man said "Okay. I have decided. And your stepmother has decided too." After saying this he looked to the side. Where another person was standing quietly by the door. This was a woman. She was in her mid-thirties. And the man and woman who were standing in front of Adam.
They were Adam's parents. Although this mother of his was his stepmother. This man was Adam's father Ricky. And Adam's stepmother's name was Rachel.
Adam opened his mouth. He wanted to say something. But then his father raised his hand to silence him.
And he said "We will talk about everything when we get home." Saying this he started to stand up from the sofa. He started to walk from there. And looking back at Adam he said "What are you sitting there for? Go and pack your things quickly."
As soon as Adam heard this he felt very strange. He thought in his mind "What is happening? When I was in such a bad situation.
When I had nothing. Then these people did not even come to see me. And today when my situation is finally improving. Then they are standing in front of me as if they are my real parents." Then Adam looked at Ricky. Ricky was waiting.
He was waiting for Adam to get up and pack his things. Then Adam slowly shook his head. In front of them. Seeing this Ricky was a little surprised. Then Adam said "No. I will not go anywhere. This is my home now."
Ricky was very surprised. And he thought. The Adam I know does not talk to me like this. He was always afraid of me. Then he moved forward towards Adam.
There was a look of a lot of anger and frustration on his face. Then Rachel his other wife that is Adam's stepmother quickly moved forward. And she held Ricky's arm.
And she said "No. You should not do this. You promised me you wouldn't right?" After hearing this Ricky stopped himself.
Then Adam who was watching Ricky coming towards him got scared for a moment. But he was completely ready to stand by his decision. Then Adam said again.
Without any fear in his voice. "I have said it before. And I will say it again. I will not go anywhere." Hearing this even more anger came on Ricky's face. Ricky and Rachel were both very surprised. By Adam's firm decision. They could not understand it.
The boy who used to call them again and again until just a few months ago. The boy who used to send them letters begging to be called back home.
Even if it was to another family. Today he himself was refusing to go.
Then Ricky let out a deep breath. He said "I think your mind is not right. You need some time to think. I will come again tomorrow. And when I come. Your things should all be packed and ready to go. Otherwise it will not be good for you." Hearing this threat Ricky left from there in anger. With his wife.
Adam was very surprised. His own father who had left him in the middle of the road all those years ago. Today he wanted to take him back to his home by force.
Adam was a little surprised. And he thought in his mind. What is the reason for his father's insistence. To take him back home. Has something happened? Adam had to find out about this. And he knew exactly where he could find out about it. Thinking this he closed the gate.
And he went to his room and picked up his mobile phone. He was about to open the One-Click Billionaire app. So that he could get all the information.
He wanted to know what the matter was. Why his father was suddenly after him so much.
But then before he could open that mobile app a call started coming on his mobile phone. Adam was a little surprised.
He looked at the screen to see who had called him. Then Adam saw that it was actually Andrew. Who had called. Then Adam picked up Andrew's phone.
And from the other side Andrew said "Adam all the preparations are done. Our entire ground base is completely ready. Just like you had told me to build.
And based on the information you gave me. The mayor's elections are going to be held in our own city that is in Solo City very soon. What do you think? Should we try to run a candidate?"
Hearing this Adam's bad mood immediately got better. A smile came on his face.
Then Adam said "Do it immediately. I am ready to send more funding. Do as much marketing as you can. But remember Andrew we don't have to win the election. We have to create a brand. This political party of ours should be a brand. And you know that a brand has a real value." Hearing this Andrew was very surprised.
To see Adam's sudden excitement. And smiling a little he said "I understand. And this time I will not refuse your money. I really need a lot of money this time. Because I have found so many good and talented individuals. Their minds are working so well. They have a lot of capability. And they can take this party very far. They just lacked two things. Money. And a way of knowing each other." Hearing this Adam smiled.
Then Andrew said to Adam in a very surprised tone "I should not ask this. But my mind can't help but ask. Adam..." Adam was a little surprised to hear this.
Then Andrew said "How are you getting such perfect and detailed information about all these people? Because as far as I know you don't have any friend who could provide this." Hearing this Adam was a little surprised. He had expected the manager to ask him such direct questions. But if Andrew was asking such questions. Then Adam had definitely crossed a line. He had started using this incredible power without thinking about the consequences. Because of which his closest companions were also getting very surprised and were asking him this question. Adam had no idea about this.
Then Adam remained silent for a few seconds. And he was thinking. What should he answer Andrew. Then from the other side Andrew himself spoke up.
And he said "You don't need to answer that. I was just sharing my thoughts. Okay then Adam. I will send you the location. You can send the money there." Saying this he cut the phone.
Adam also put down the phone and taking a deep breath he said. In a very low voice. "Forgive me my friend. Now is not the time. I cannot tell my secret to anyone right now." Adam did not even have faith in this.
That he could ever tell this secret to anyone or not. Then Adam remembered what his real intention was. But Adam put his phone aside.
And he said "This work can be done later too. I have to deal with this family matter first." He immediately called Kevin. And he gave him the information of this new assignment. He wanted Kevin to find out what his father was up to.
Immediately after this Adam opened the One-Click Billionaire app on his phone. And going to the recruit setting there he wrote about his father Ricky.
He did not have to write much. Because he had full faith that the recruit section would tell him almost everything about his father. He saw that the recruit section had deducted the fee from his bank.
And then a detailed report was downloaded on his mobile phone. Which Adam opened. And he started to read.
Adam saw that his father's financial condition was getting very bad. They had already suffered many huge losses in their business.
Even back when Adam used to live with them. And now their losses had increased a lot.
In the meantime a solution was given to his father by his stepmother Rachel. And that solution was. To get Adam married into a rich family.
The girl had already been seen by Adam's stepmother.
Although this family knew Adam's stepmother in a very casual way. But they knew her a little. Adam's stepmother's plan was this.
That they would force Adam to meet the girl. And they would try to make that girl fall in love with Adam. After this that girl would marry Adam.
After that whatever property would be in the girl's name. It would also become Adam's property by law. After this that property would automatically go to Adam's father and Adam's stepmother.
When Adam was reading this report. The anger was clearly visible on his face. Then Adam saw the reason why his father had agreed to this plan.
It was because his father knew how much Adam was afraid of him. He thought he could still control him.
