Hi everyone!
This is a chapter about Archies life and background. I have some amazing story for you guys further and I hope that you guys will like it. So please comment about your opinion on the story so that I can get an idea if I need to customise anything and please vote for the chapter.
I just came home from Millie's house. It's 5:00 a.m. right now I am going to take a two hours nap as I haven't slept the whole night
" What did I tell you Archie?" A rough voice stopped me from going to my room. That's my Dad. Derek Rhode. He is possibly the only person with the darkest aura on this earth.
"No going out at nights. The last thing I want is you getting a girl pregnant." He surely has an unfiltered mouth. Or I shall say he is just mean.
"I know how to use a protection Mr. Rhode and definitely better than you. Also I can get girls present during the day time." I replied back at last I am related to him. It's his blood that runs through my veins.
"Watch your mouth when you talk with me little Rhode."His voice was calm but he kept the terror in his sentence.
"Should I? Because the last thing I remember is that it's you who needs me and not the other way around." I let out and rushed towards my room.
My dad is 36 years old and I am 17 so when you do the math you will get that they had me when they were 19 and by they I mean he and my mom. Wild,right? They were in college when they had me. My mom and Dad hated each other but they were forced to get married because they had me. You must be thinking how was I born when they hated each other already? Do you guys know hate sex? It's a thing.
My dad is a monster. My mom is nothing less than a monster but she was sweet to me. I know she loved me no matter what my dad says. He claims that my mom got herself pregnant just so she could marry him but I know he is wrong. The love I saw in my mom's eyes towards me was real. I know it. I am sure of it. And to some extent I Know my mom loves Mr.Rhode even though she never admitted that.
My dad is a Mafia King. The whole world knows it but no one says it out loud. You guys must be thinking that does that thing still exists? Yes it does and my dad needs me to continue his line. His legacy.
My mom left when I was 13. But she had no choice. My dad was horrible to her. He might have never hit my mom but the mental torcher he did to her would be too much for anyone. She was not allowed to leave the house. Me and my mom lived in the same house but we rarely saw each other because my Dad thought she would brainwash me even worse he thought we would make a plan to murder him during night. He never said that but we could see the fear in his eyes. Lol.
I locked myself in my room and decided to take a two hour nap as it was much needed.

Buzz!!! Buzz!!! Buzz!!!
It was my phone, someone is calling me. I am way too sleepy right now. I moved my hands while I was still laying on my bed to find my phone. I grabbed my phone and put it front of my eyes it was Mr. Rhode who was calling me. What is his problem? Don't he realise that I am least interested in talking with him. Anyways I had to pick up his calls as I work in his office not that I want to but because I am forced to. "Yes?" I questioned as I picked up his phone.
"I want you at the office right now." He ordered."Okay." I replied. No matter how many differences we have, we keep it real professional in our business life. I never wanted to work with him but he is the only family I have right now, my mom left me and I don't blame her but she choose to left me behind and Mr. Rhode stuck with me. Though he never played his role as a dad but atleast he have the capacity to live in the same house as me. And my mom always taught me to value family.
I drove to Rhodes Empire building. We have branches in different cities by the main office is here in New York and it's not very far away from my house.
.
I knocked on Mr. Rhode door and he responded "Come inside."
"What happened?" I asked as he called me during Sunday morning.
"You are going to be the owner of the Empire pretty soon, you know that right?" He said while doing some paper work and not even looking at me.
"Not until you die." I confirmed as there is no chance he is handing over the company to someone else till he is alive.
"About that, have a seat." He put his work aside and pointed towards the chair in front of his desk.
I pulled out the chair and took a seat. "Yes?" I interrogated.
"I am expanding our empire. This was a quick descision so I didn't have much time to take care of the business here but it's a nice offer and I am taking it." He explained.
"Okay, but our company's product is already available in almost every town and city of America. So where are we exactly expanding?" Whatever Mr. Rhode be but he is a damn good Buisness man and is definitely the Mafia King though he tries to keep me out of that part but I know pretty much about it and he knows that I know.
"France. We are opening our offices in 5 of their cities and towns there firstly that is Paris, Nantes, Lourdes, Orleans and Versailles." He informed me about the places and later on explained me the plan. I listened to his words carefully.
"Now that you know about my plan you need to know one last thing." He let out. I know what he is going to say. But it's too early. I am not ready. I am not him. I can never be him. I don't want this. This does not fit in my plan.
"I know." I let out.
"Yeah, but I want to say it loud and clear" he took a deep breath and rested on the back of his chair and light up his cigarette " You will be the CEO of the company by this time next year." He said it out loud. This can't be happening. I know everything about the buisness but being a CEO of the company at the age of eighteen I can't even imagine myself like that.
"What about my college?" I asked.
He gave me a smirk and said " Skip it." He said or shall I say ordered.
"But I don't want to." I couldn't make eye contact with him because I knew he wouldn't care.
"Dear, do you think you have an option?" He said simply.
"No." I finally managed to meet his eyes who were happy as ever.
"Good. Billy will assist you and train you for the year. He is my left hand hope you take good use of him." He declared and went back to his paperwork and I left his room.
I knew that one day I will have to take over the Empire but I wasn't expecting it anytime soon. But as it is happening I once again will have to give up everything good in my life just for Mr. Rhode because unfortunately I have his blood running in my veins
