AUSTIN POV
A small smile crept on his face as he stepped on the podium because he was about to give Fredrick the shock of his life.
FLASHBACK
Austin sighed and stared at her photos on Instagram.
“She looked so beautiful, Why will Fredrick get so lucky? No, I must have her by all means and I will never loose to Fredrick Never.
“Son what is this I’m hearing?” His father asked barging into his office.
“It’s true dad we are almost bankrupt and Fredrick is behind it”
“What?”
“Most of our investors backed out when the new branch in Kano yielded little profit after investing a lot into it”
“Austin how could you be this careless?” Mr Damon asked his son.
“Dad, you were the one who asked me to spy on Fredrick’s company to get ideas and that idea came from Fredrick”
“Can’t you see? He was playing us into his trap. He knew Goliath was a spy and he used him against us”
“What the hell, I can’t believe I was this stupid” Austin complained.
“I knew this day will come and that’s why I prepared for it” Mr Damon said
“What do you mean?” Austin asked his father
“What I mean is a way to bring Fredrick down and he will definitely end up in jail after this”
“Really? What about Ethan? He’s still a problem. He was the one who convinced our investors to back out”
“Ethan? he’s is just a puppet to his brother and also a weakling. Once Fredrick is out of the way, I’ll take care of him”
“You mean kill him?” Austin asked his father visibly happy
“Yes and I’ll also arrange for Fredrick’s death in prison”
“Dad what’s the plan?” Austin asked his father inquisitively
“Fredrick has a child” Damon spilled
“What? How?”
“Only three people in the world knows about it”
“Does Fredrick know about it?” Austin inquired
“No. He doesn’t”
“But how does this have to do with bringing him down?”
“Because he had an affair with one Jolly in highschool”
“Jolly? no one knew what happened to her and she just disappeared into thin air”
“I lead to her disappearance and I was going to kill her after child birth but she died during the process. So I gave the child out to doctor and destroyed all records of his birth” Damon said to Austin who seemed surprised.
“What you mean now is that we are going to frame Fredrick for her death right?”
“Yes it’s going to be that Fredrick killed Jolly and sold his child. I have solid evidence Austin and Fredrick won’t escape this” Damon said and Austin laughed.
“Dad, you are such a genius”
“After Gold finds out she will definitely leave Fredrick and come running to you”
“I’d love that Dad. That reminds me, her parents are getting married in five days time”
“Perfect so in five days we strike” Damon said to his son Austin.
GOLD POV
“I wonder what he’s about to say” Gold muttered.
“I am Austin Damon and I would love to say a big congratulations to the newly weds but I must say I don’t think they want their daughter to end up with a murderer and a child trafficker” Austin said and everyone one started murmuring to themselves.
“What is he talking about?” Esther asked.
“What are you talking about Austin? Stop spilling nonsense” Gold yelled at him but he looked at Fredrick and saw he was silent but obviously very angry.
“I see Gold that you are actually blinded by this thing you call love. But Fredrick had a son, killed the mother of the child and sold the baby” Austin said and everyone gasped at what he said “I was in shock too but I trust Fredrick wouldn’t do that” Gold assured herself.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
“You’ve gotten this desperate Austin as to cook up lies about me? What the hell are you trying to prove?” Fredrick smacked angrily.
“Oh yes how can I forget, you were always a better actor. Gold, Fredrick has been playing you all along. Ask him who the fuck is Jolly?”
“Fredrick is that true?” Gold asked already in tears.
“Come on baby you know me too well. If I did have a son then why on earth will I kill his mama and sell the child?”
“Maybe because you never wanted the child” Austin answered
“Shut up Austin” Ethan yelled angrily.
“Then who the hell is Jolly?” Gold asked angrily
“Jolly was Ethan’s bestie and she had a crush on me but I didn’t feel the same way. I got drunk at a friend’s party and we ended up having sex then I was just seventeen but she never told me she was fucking pregnant” Fredrick answered frustrated
“Don’t believe any word of his Gold because he knew about it. Can’t you see that little boy is his fucking son and him getting close to you was part of his plan. Don’t be stupid Gold” Austin said enthusiastically.
“Just shut up because at this point I don’t know who to believe” Gold yelled.
“Did Fredrick really do that or Austin is just cooking up lies” Gold thought inwardly and Fredrick came towards her trying to touch her but she refused.
“Gold” Fredrick called her as he attempted to hold her again.
“Don’t touch me” Gold said to him again and he stood frozen.
“God, baby after all we’ve been through you chose to believe him? I love you so why would I lie to you? maybe you don’t love me enough” Fredrick yelled and Gold felt her eyes water uncontrollably.
“Fredrick” Gold called in tears but he interrupted her with a wave of hand
“I least expected this from you, you just allowed Austin destroy our relationship” Fredrick huffed and proceeded to walk out but Gold hugged him from behind.
“I want to be with you Fredie so why should I let you go?”
“Let go of me Gold” Fredrick pleaded but Gold refused.
“No my love, I believe you and don’t ever say that I don’t love you. I love you Fredrick and I want to be with you and no one else” Gold said and she could feel him smiling as he held her waist and made her face him.
“Took you so long to say that” Fredrick said pulling her lips slightly
“I know”
“I’m sorry for yelling at you” Fredrick apologized
“And I’m sorry for not believing at first and maybe if you didn’t yell at me, I probably wouldn’t have believed you” Gold also pleaded.
“I love you Gold and I would never lie to you”
“I know” Gold said with a smile as Fredrick pulled her into a slow and passionate kiss.
“What more tricks have you got Austin? it’s obvious that these two can’t be separated so give up” Ethan sad to Austin.
“No Ethan, I won’t give up and you should know that this is serious case. I’m going to sue your brother to court and trust me Ethan he will end up in prison” Austin said angrily to Ethan but Fredrick and Gold pulled out of the kiss at the mention of the word prison.
“And you are next Ethan” Austin said smirking at him.
“I don’t think so Austin, actually your dad is the one I’m going to send to prison” Fredrick warned Austin.
“Fredrick, I’ve got the evidence so you can’t escape the law”
“Fake evidence. You seem to be forgetting something Austin that, I am Austin Majesty and I can easily find my way out of any trap you set”
“Just accept it Fredrick that you’ve lost this time.
Maybe you are not as smart as you claim”
“Actually Austin Damon, I’m ten times smarter than you will ever be”
“I don’t think so Fredrick because If you were that smart, how couldn’t you possibly know that you had a child some years ago?”
“Actually Austin I am more smarter than you because you just spilled the beans you fool” Fredrick said as he rushed and took hold of Austin’s collar and gave him a punch on the face that left a bruise on his face.
“Pass this message across to your father and tell him that I’m going to make sure he rots in jail because he crossed the line this time by messing with my family”
“To hell with you Fredrick you cant do nothing” Austin said but Fredrick gave him another punch that made him crash on the ground.
“OK that’s enough, you guys don’t wanna fight in my party” Irene yelled as people had already began to leave the reception hall.
