Chapter 58
CALISTA RAYMONDS
It’s morning and I just had my medicine, I sit back on the bed just so I can get some energy.
It’s a new day and I feel much better than I was yesterday. I touched my neck and the necklace Chase gave me was still there, it wasn’t a dream as I’ve thought.
That’s the least thing I expected Chase to ask me. To be his date to a Ball Party!
I won’t dare say No to him either. I smile and stand up from my bed then walk to the bathroom to brush my teeth.
When I’m done, I dried my mouth before stepping out of my room.
When I got to the dining room and didn’t see Chase there, I smile. It’s the first time I beat him to waking up first.
But just when I was about to sit down, Chase walked downstairs all dressed up and ready to leave but he stopped when he sees me.
“Are you going out?” I asked him and he nodded at me adjoining his tie.
“You won’t have breakfast before going?”.
“It’s urgent. I’m sorry” he said to me and walk out of the house without even looking at me.
I felt hurt and feel like he have used me again. How can he leave so early and always act like I’m nothing to him whileas he just asked me yesterday to be his date?.
I sat down, I think it’s high time I stop overthinking. I have been thinking about a lot lately and it’s not just okay.
I take my phone from the table and look at it.. I still have one hour fourteen minutes until morning class starts.
Dropping the phone back on the table, I start eating.

Chase step outside his apartment and Tyrell opened the car door for him. He got in and Tyrell walk over to the other side and got in before muttering to the driver to drive.
“You seem pretty upset this morning” Tyrell told Chase.
He nodded and light a cigarette. “We have to make the first move this time, I want you to look into my uncle’s past encounters… We need to find who his son is”.
“Edward have a son?” Tyrell’s eyes widened when Chase nods.
“That’s a disaster… He kept this away from everyone, How old will he be?”.
“Maybe 24 or 26 , He hide it away from the family from the very first day his baby Mama gave birth”.
“He really have been planning all these for a long time”. Tyrell said and Chase just nodded.
There was silence as the car roll by until Chase turn to Tyrell again.
“Do you think he killed Madison?”
Tyrell looked at him and was taken aback with the question.
“I don’t think he did”NôvelDrama.Org content.
“It’s annoying that we don’t even have a suspect” Chase cursed.
The car stopped at Chase’s warehouse and he got down.
Tyrell did the same and they both walk inside the warehouse… Just as Chase enters the whores and the strippers try making advances on him but Tyrell prevented that.
Chase walk to a man who hand shakes him immediately they’re in front of each other.
“Where’s he?” Chase asked him.
The man motioned on him to follow him and Chase and Tyrell follows. He stopped at the private VIP room and told them to go in.
Chase thanked him and told Tyrell to stay back while he enters himself. Tyrell obey and walk to get himself a drink.
Chase walk inside the room and meet a man asleep on the couch with five sluts on top of him and beside him and the room was leaking of alcohol.
He tapped the man twice and when he finally opens his eyes he smiled when he sees it’s Chase. He pushed him out and away from the girls.
“You’re here.” He said and stood up from the couch adjoining his robe.
“Get out” Chase said to the girls who got up and run off immediately.
The man smiled and walk to get a glass of wine for Chase, he handed it over to him and Chase accepted it.
“What do you know? I need every little information” Chase said and the man smirk.
“You haven’t change yet have you? You’re used to always getting things the way you want them…”
Chase didn’t say a word and just look away, he take the glass he had dropped earlier on the table and drink up the wine in it.
“I’m not ready for your hide and mind games Lucifer.. tell me what you know, everything.” Chase told him.
“Well, I guess I have to say everything, but how did you remember my face?”
“You worked for Edward and you stayed with him until he disappear. Why won’t I recognize you, I’m not a kid” Chase told him.
Lucifer nodded and drink from his glass too, he poured himself another shot and drink it up too.
“Edward is a devil right from when Great Godfather was alive. He have alot of things up to his nerves and he’s always mischievous, Edward have a lot of enemies too… And even if he makes you guys believe he’s going to streak first… Then he’s lying. I know him too well”
“That he have so many enemies is because he’s playing mind games, he knows when those he offended and stole from couldn’t find him to punish him, they’ll come after his brother, Your father.” Lucifer told him.
“So you mean, he’s like… Pushing his enemies to us?”
“He’s not pushing it to your family… He already did.” Lucifer said and Chase nodded.
“Do you have fire there?” Chase asked and Lucifer nodded then throw a lighter to him. Chase catched it and used it to light his stick of cigarette.
“Do you also know that he have a son of my age?” Chase asked.
“Woooo! That’s the least I expected you to know.”
“Yunno, he told my father when his baby was born and told him it’s a boy. But he never bring in the baby, Why? What was he planning?” Chase asked him.
Lucifer stare at him for a while and sighed. “I can’t give out that information”.
“Why?”
“You’re a Mafia… You should know I can’t break the oath I had with him” He said and Chase nodded.
“Well, thank you for your time” Chase said and stood up approaching the door but stopped when Lucifer called his name.
He turned and look at him.
“Protect Calista and don’t let the same thing happen again.”
Chase stare at him and arched his brows. Without being told, Chase know that Calista have been discovered and they’re trying to use her against him.
He nodded and without another word, he walked out of the room.
