His pride and joy, the only capable grandson interested in furthering their empire, had nearly lost his life over a reckless confrontation with gang members.
Old Master Arinze's fury wasn't about the fight itself. It was about the recklessness, the failure to think through the consequences. Chibuzor had tried to protect Adaugo instead of alerting the university authorities. That impulsive bravery could have cost him everything.

It didn't take long for him to figure out who was behind the attack. Professor Nathaniel had hired the gang to punish him. Chibuzor shared his suspicions with his grandfather, and the old master wasted no time.
