Hollywood Zenith

Chapter 939: The Call-1

" Hello? Mr Nelson?" Samuel said in a pleasant tone. He wanted to have a easy conversation before dropping the bombshell on the poor old man.

" Yes? Who is this? How do you get this number?" The man on the other end sounded irritated after all not many people had his personal cell. Read exclusive content at empire

" I am Samuel Rothschild, I am sure you have heard of me." Samuel properly introduced himself.

" Yes, I know. Why are you calling me? How do you get this number?"

" That can wait. I have been having a problem recently so I thought I let you know before I did something outrageous."

" Boy, you have some guts to call me out of the blue. I don’t have time to listen to your nonsense. Forget this number and don’t contact me again, this time I will not be lenient." Nelson was outraged. Was he someone who would tolerate such disrespect from a snotty brat?

Everyone in the world would either cower in fear or be polite with him, even his enemies didn’t dare to talk to him so openly. He had no equals and he knew it which was why he was so irritated by Samuel’s call. Who the hell leaked his personal cell?

" I thought it was the other way around."

" Brat! Are you talking down on me? I am in a important meeting. I don’t have time to talk to some hotshot who is barely out of his diapers." Nelson practically shouted stunning people beside him.

" I didn’t do anything. I took mercy on him once but he again tried to play games with me tonight. Now I am wondering whether I should just finish him or give him another chance. I hate to see him take the easy way out." Samuel said in an icy tone which made Nelson realize that the young man was serious.

" Y-you wouldn’t dare-"

" Why not? In your pursuit of power, you neglected one thing, your son. Do you know where I found him? In the underbelly of Paris hooked on god knows what, there are girls here probably his men kidnapped them from some place and even guards patrolling the whole place like it’s some sort of palace. You chose to ignore his deeds and look where it got you?

All your money and power is nothing when you have no one to leave it to right?" By now, it was Samuel’s turn to yell at him. He was pissed at the situation, how could any father let his son do such heinous acts? Wouldn’t putting Richard out of his misery directly benefit his future victims?

" Please...don’t....he is my only son. I beg you." The old man said with some difficulty. As the current head of the Rockefeller empire, he never had opportunity to apologize to anyone since he took his seat. But when faced with possibility of losing his son, he couldn’t do anything but beg!

" Old man, listen to me very carefully. I know our families had been enemies but I want to give you an important advice. Your son has gotten himself into a mountain of trouble, sooner or later someone would come to collect his debt so I urge you to start looking into what he has been doing these past few years.

Lock him up or torture him to death, I don’t really care but if he dare to hurt another soul. I promise you, I will destroy him and your whole house without a second thought. I don’t people who get in my way especially smug bastards who don’t know their place." Samuel paused and sighed.

He really wanted to do it but he knew he couldn’t. He could feel desperation in Nelson’s voice, if he really take Richard’s life it would only lead to a full scale war which would directly impact thousands or even millions of families.

No matter how much he wanted to take revenge, his logical brain was telling him to let it go. People like Richard would face the consequences of their actions in the future.
