Chapter 8 - CHAPTER 8

The world is just not even, some rich some poor. One day I realize I'm born from a rich family, being abandoned because of some wealth and lead me to struggle having lack of education now everything changed in a blink of an eye.

Derick in my place being switched, Derriere sighed

The car was moving in a fast pace approaching the city seeing different buildings, skyscraper.

Derriere surprised look attract Tyler.

Sir the company is not far ahead. "Okay" derriere said

The car stopped at once and Tyler quickly rush to the door to open, the cold aura lingering around me, I stepped down everyone bowed I walked into the company and was stopped by a voice of a lady.i turned and my sight caught a lady, her manner is not fit and she looked nonchalantly.

"Babe where have you been, it's been hours and I have been waiting my feet hurt - she said walking towards me claiming my arms"

She must be the bitch Derick talked about - jessica

Why are you here?!. Don't you know your mom invited me to dinner at your house today, I came to inform you.

I've heard can you leave now, you don't have a place here, don't you remember what you did?.I said

Babe I asked for forgiveness can't you just forgive me, I won't do it again.

Leave before I throw you out, I'm loosing my patience. Derriere said anger lingering. I will leave now, but I will be back, I can't stay away from you- Jessica said leaving the company

The employee was looking at the show and I snap my head towards all and they left the scene.

I walked towards the private elevator going to the office.

As soon I got in the office I was pull into a hug, a body I wasn't familiar with.

"Bro I thought you went to switch with your brother?". Daniel said

"Who are you?" I asked

Bro you must be joking or what are you Derriere? He asked

Yes I am..."Holy Shit" I must be seeing things, I can't even differentiate I thought Derick was bluffing, Daniel said!.

You must be Daniel, Derick told me about you...

You two are identical, Daniel said worn shock written all over his face.

Okay okay as you know my little brother and myself switch and I'm here as a substitute Ceo since I'm not the real heir

Excuse me, little brother? Daniel asked.

Yeah I'm older with Derick with 5 minutes..

You must be joking, Daniel said laughing..

Okay, I'm not here to joke let my job begin.

You're cold like Derick said, you're different.

Yes, I am, barner said walking towards the sit checking out all the file. I might as well need your help.

Okay what's it.

Derick POV

I walked through the streets, dirt could be seen around the odour lingering in my nose, I might poke out in any minute, I stare at the small phone derriere gave me earlier and I also glance at my phone I placed in my pocket not after putting it on silent.

I walked towards the small house and looked around

I can't believe this is where my brother is living while I'm living a lavish life without knowing a thing, I can only blame mom for this, she abandoned a kid for luxury and she is even keeping a secret, I will find out what it is

Barner barner, I was being called by a familiar voice that I once heard in a restaurant. I walked into the house aroma filled the small sitting room

Yes granny I said walking into the kitchen. You told me you want to get your hair done why did it take long?

Granny there was a lot of people so I had to wait for my turn.

Okay, go and freshen up and help yourself with some pasta I'm going to the market. Granny said.

Okay I replied dryly walking towards a room which I believed it for derriere..

I left and granny turn, there's definitely something different about him, she said walking out the house.

I locked the door of my room and took my phone checking for latest news update.

....

WATTHERD ENTERPRISE

Derriere glance through the clock, it 6:00pm so late. I'm not staying in the same house with my parents not when there's a dinner with that bitch.

I picked up my phone and called Daniel. He picked up after the second ring

What's up, I thought you wouldn't be needing my help

I need a hotel reservation for the night, I cannot attend that dinner.

Okay, I see that your way to handle things little different.daniel smirked

You have not seen any about me yet, derriere scoffed.

Okay come to my hotel.

WATTHERDS MANSION

All delicacy has been served, Jessica arrived not quite long waiting for Derick arrival.

Half an hour passed, an hour passed, two hours passes no sign of Derick was seen

He must be busy with work activities. Madison said.

Mom he must be ignoring me, I went to meet him today and he almost had the security to throw me out. He was being cold to me like I'm one of his enemy. Jessica said faking a cry.

Let me call him, to apologize he doesn't mean any of it.

Immediately Madison picked up her phone and dial Derick (derriere) number.

After the third ring it was picked.

Son where the heck are you it's two hours passed dinner.

Ohh mom I forget to call and tell you that I would be coming home tonight,

I thought Jessica told you about the dinner. 'yea mom' but I have some more important thing to do, ma put it on speaker.

Why? She asked

Just do it ma.

It's already on speaker son! What do you want to tell me.

Jessica I know you must be listening, my mom might have some soft spot for you but never will i, the engagement wouldn't take place if you try another again it's another time to say. I'm threating you right now so get the hell from my house.

Madison was shocked with what she heard and looked at Jessica only to see that she already fainted.

She immediately dial the emergency number.

"Hello someone passed out, out of shock I need help". She said smiling...
