BEHIND THE BILLIONS

Chapter 4: Duke Billions

TREVOR'S POV

Mark stopped the car at that instant and turned back to look at me. "That's not possible. We are yet to even ask Father how he got poisoned, and now this? Madam Cross, please go have a sit and stop spreading fake news or I will personally come for you." Mark threatened, unable to accept that from her.

I didn't know when the phone fell out of my hand, and suddenly, Ellen started calling me. Mark saw how weak I was to lift anything, so he picked up the phone. "Hello, miss! Can you please send your location? We will come to pick you up."

"Erm okay, I'm at Atlantis Mall shopping at the moment, but yeah, meet me at the entrance," her cheeky voice came through, and Mark drove off, his speed increasing. We got there within five minutes and saw her running towards us with over five shopping bags.

Mark opened the door for her right after placing her bags in the boot. She got in and saw me looking so lost, and placed her palm on my hand. "Trevor?!"

I moved a bit but had no reaction to give.

Mark got into the vehicle and turned back to look at her. "Miss, please pardon the atmosphere. We are about to take you to see Master's father, who is in the sick bed. Please pardon him, there was no initial discussion before this action."

"Really? Oh my gosh! I'm okay with it. Come on, let's go!" she sounded ready, and Mark started the vehicle and drove off at a high speed, almost alerting the police.

We got back to the mansion in no time. The three of us got out of the car and ran into the building. "Welcome, young master! He is up in his room." Madam Cross and every other maid in the house were crying bitterly as we arrived.

"What happened?" I yelled as I grabbed her.

"I'm sorry, young master, but the moment you left, a nurse checked on him, and that was how we found out he had stopped breathing," she cried in my arms. Hot tears threatened to pour out of my eyes as I let go of her and ran up with Mark and Ellen. I got into my father's room and couldn't help but kneel as I held him, hoping he would move. "Father! Don't do this! Father, please. I brought your daughter-in-law, won't you even look at her? Father!!!!" I couldn't stop screaming. Mark and Ellen held me together, and they tried to get me to put a grip on my emotions.

"What's happening here, though?" I heard Ellen mutter.

"This is Trevor's father. He got poisoned at a gathering between him and his brothers. Can you imagine that?" Mark explained to her.

On the mention of his brothers, I stopped crying and stood up, causing Mark to look at me, wondering what I was about to do. I went silent as my facial expressions changed from being broken to nothing at all. My palms turned into a fist, and my eyes became darker. I then turned and stormed out of the room.

"Trevor!!" they called me, but I didn't have the time to answer them. Everyone who saw me storming out tried to follow me, but I didn't care and got into my car as I then personally drove out of Billions Mansion.

My heart was pounding so furiously. One person would have to go down, and I could only promise in my heart at the moment. I drove all the way to the mansion where the so-called meeting was held. I didn't need anyone to tell me that it happened in Duke Billions' home. He always claimed the older brother's status in things like this, so since my father is down, he would have to deal with me.

I pressed the horn so hard, and when the security came to check and saw that I was the one, they refused to open the gate.

I wasn't surprised. They had already been ordered to be against me, but unfortunately, I wasn't in the mood to take it today. I got out of the car and walked towards the smaller gate and noticed that a guard was coming to lock it, and in that instant, I kicked it with a force that not only sent the guard flying but also pulled the gate down.

Then I walked in. It must have caused a lot of noise because a minute later, every member of Duke's little household was out to see what was happening, and that included his maids.

"You rascal! What the hell have you come here to do?" my uncle yelled, angrily pointing his stick in my direction.

"He is dead!!!!! Duke!!! He is finally dead, just as you have always wanted!!! Do you have any other message for him so I can say it to him while paying my respect???" I roared.

Duke Billions smirked on hearing me. "Well, tell him to go to hell!" he said to me, and at that instant, I rushed him and lifted him up, throwing him on the hard floor right after that.

"Trevor!!!"

"Dad!!"

"Master!!!"

Everyone around screamed! I paused and then looked around them. "What? If you can dare, come save him!"

I then picked him up from the floor and punched him in the belly. "How does that feel? Tastes like death, huh?" I said to his face and sent him another punch as we moved around the compound. "How about you join my father?"

"Tre..."

PAK!!!!

I hit him in the face before he could even call my name. "I want to be able to tell my dad I killed you and then tell him to kill your soul when you finally meet him, or what do you think?" I spat on his head and punched him in his face.

I didn't stop hitting him all over, even after noticing blood flowing out of his nose and teeth. "My father was nothing but good to all of you. How dare you poison him? I will make sure you rot in jail." I said, slapping him repeatedly.

"Trevor!!!" I suddenly heard Ellen and Mark's voices. They had followed me here with some guards.

Seeing this, I gritted my teeth and pushed Duke Billions to the floor and started matching his chest as I sent several punches to his face before Mark and Ellen got to me and managed to stop me. "Trevor, please get a hold of your emotions," Ellen begged.

"Trevor, he is almost losing consciousness. Don't let him die in your hand." Mark said as they were finally able to separate me from the monster of an uncle.

I looked at his face and was able to confirm that I did justice to it. "I'm not done with you. I'm not done with you, Duke Billions!!!" I growled as I was taken out of the compound. Mark got me into the car and then drove me and Ellen out of there.

My hands were still in a fist, with my shirt already stained with blood. "And about that foolish Assistant Ray, I need his whereabouts right now."

"master about that, you might want to look at this," Mark said, passing a phone to me.

Ellen looked on, looking confused.

I took the phone from him and looked at the screen. It was a document passing important information.

Assistant Ray was out of the country...
