The Secretive Billionaire

The laser grid system that set off the alarms at the laboratory and house it was built into the side of the mountain went off with such an abrupt Ness that I took everybody by surprise. It was full dark outside. He didn't   know what time it was. He'd been in the lab pretty much the entire day. He was absolutely sure that within the next week, all of his work would be vindicated. And he would have   created one of the most important scientific devices of all time.

He heard the team of security agents running by his door. He went to the balcony, and he looked down, and that's when he saw a body at the base of the mountain. He owned the entire mountain range for at least five miles in each direction. He was not exactly known for being kind to those who trespassed. The security team would deal with it, so he just shrugged it off and went back inside. Something about the form, though, was staying with him. The person that was laying at the base of the hill didn't exactly move at all either. And that's what got his mind working again. It didn't make any sense that somebody would try to break in and end up in that particular position.

He cautiously decided to go downstairs to watch over what the security team decided to do. They would be taking the stairs down as the elevator probably would be the safest bet, but since the alarms were still going off, there was a chance that the elevators could stop. He went ahead and went into his private elevator that was only attached to his apartments and the base of the mountain. When he walked through the open area that his elevator opened to, he could   hear the security team starting to make their way outside, and he followed in their wake. It wasn't normal for him to have any interaction with most of the people who lived or worked on the base that he had created inside the mountain. It was the perfect cover for everything that he was doing. And that's the moment that everything changed when he walked outside.

Benton Danielson was what most people called eccentric. The Danielson fortune had left him with the opportunity to try and change the world without the world knowing that it was him. Most people only knew that he had this mountain range but not exactly what they were doing there. He was so close to his scientific discovery that only a few people knew about it, and most of them worked and lived within the mountain range itself. It had taken years to clear out and hollow some of the mountains to create apartment buildings and different laboratory aspects, including and complete Medical Center. But it wasn't until he saw the person who was at the base of the mountain that he knew everything was gonna go up in smoke. He was absolutely taken back by what he saw. So was the security team. This was not what they expected to encounter.

“They're still alive.” the lead member of the security team said as they reached over and checked for the pulse. The body that was before them was extremely bruised and battered and had blood still on their face.

“Well then get a stretcher and get them into the Medical Center,” Benton replied. He wanted to find out what they wanted and why they were there in the first place. However, in this particular condition, they were going to be absolutely worthless. He knew that he had to fix them so he could find out what they wanted. While they were there. Right now, there were a lot of questions that needed to be answered that he didn't know if they would ever be answered with the condition of the person that was there. The security team had radioed the medical team to be prepared. “I want updates on their condition every hour. when they're finally awake, I want to be the first one to talk to them.”

“Yes, Sir.” the security team member said as they looked at him, and he turned on his heel and went back inside to the elevator that nobody   knew about. Whatever was going on, he knew this was going to be the beginning of something. He needed to know if he needed to up security or not. He was too close to finishing his life's work. That was the important thing. Not this person.

He didn't want to sound cruel. It really wasn't in his nature to be like that. However, if this person was trying to break into his compound, he knew that they were no good. The body was in pretty bad shape. He still wasn't exactly sure what had happened. He would address the medical team when they came to him with the report. The person would receive medical care and then would also have to pay for trying to break into the compound. He would figure out something when the time came. Nothing was more important than his discovery. It was what he had worked for his entire life. It is what his father died for. Then we had had money his entire life. He knew that this was what the family legacy   was. He was going to make sure that it came to fruition. Then he could move on with the rest of his life.

As he went back up to his private apartments, he was   surprised to find the guest of his sister there waiting for him. The alarm set   stopped. He knew what his sister was doing, and he wasn't too thrilled with the idea. Right now, he had too much to focus on. He wasn't going to put up with his sister's matchmaking skills. He wasn't going to give in to her either. The woman that was sitting next to his sister, who is trying to bite her eyes and look sweet and innocent, was definitely not what he wanted in the end. Moving on with the rest of his life only meant one thing period to continue the family line. Eventually, he would find a woman who would know her place and would allow him to continue to do whatever he wants to do here in the lab. He would get updates soon enough.
