as Dr. Greene came out of the office, and he turned to his bodyguards.
“I want you to follow him and do the necessary if it comes to that.”
“We got it, boss.”
Chapter 3:
-Richardson-
Richardson sat back in his office, trying to understand why one of the very best scientists in the business was trying to cross him. They had been working together for over two decades and in his mind, Richardson had formed that crazy notion that he was never going to be crossed at any given point.
But that was the point where he was dead wrong since, from the look of things, it appeared as though the good doctor had no intentions of keeping his promise.
It was apparent that he had been faithful for years and in turn of that faithfulness, managed to give him a hell lot of a stub in the back.
That was one thing that Richardson was never going to let slide no matter how good of a person he was. Some things just didn’t go unpunished and as far as he was concerned, the only thing that would happen at this time would be to make sure that he found whatever it was that Dr. Greene was at pains trying to hide from him.
Richardson was the perfect example of a self made man. He, for instance, came from the streets. His parents abandoned him when he was a toddler and it went without saying that he had been doomed to fail, in ever sense of the word. He always wanted to be an inventor, but since no one wanted to adopt him, he didn’t have anyone to take him to school.
And that explained why he joined a gang and soon, due to his rare talents when it came to inflicting lots of pain; he graduated to being a bank robber, and it went without saying that his pockets flourished beyond his imagination. And that said, the only thing that remained was for him to go out there and invest the money.
Though many years had passed by, it seemed as though he was still thinking about being an inventor. But since there was no way a hardened criminal could go back to school, he decided to start his own invention company. Besides, he had grown to hate books as well as school as a result of spending way too much time with the wrong crowd.
And that said, the next thing that happened was that they tried as much as possible to ensure that every single bright student from the University was vetted and recruited. The good thing about Richardson was that he invested most of the money he earned from years of being a bank robber, and a smart one for that matter.
And eventually, it appeared as though everything was now starting to go his favor. But still, Richardson wasn’t satisfied. Unlike most of his robber friends who bought islands and retired from the life of crime, Richardson decided to invest his money into invention and his first scientist ever was none other than Dr. Greene. Dr. Greene was one of the most brilliant scientists from Harvard who made sure that he was always on point as far as his research was concerned.
And one of the scouts that Richardson had sent to the University took a video of Dr. Green while making a presentation. Of course, Richardson had no idea about what this brilliant young man was talking about, but from the look of things, he made sure that he was able to get him signed. At first, Dr. Greene was a little bit suspicious since the offer was too good to be true.
But then again, it also seemed as though every single thing was most definitely going to work out perfectly for him if only he took the liberty of kicking back and learning just how to trust the right people. So as soon as they made that deal, Dr. Greene persuaded five of his course mates to join him and just like that, it was time for them to change the world.
Richardson never wanted to get into their way with their creativity. All he did was linger and gave them an opportunity to do whatever it took to stay on top of their game. And it went without saying that they were so good at what they did
