Rise of an Alpha Male

Chapter 15: Bugatti



Half an hour later, more headlights appear. Kelly's uncle stands up from his seat and looks at the door. There is something like a large container truck moving into the residential area. 

"It looks like an armoured security vehicle." He alerts others. 

"This truck is huge, a lot larger than the security vehicles at the bank."

Everybody is wondering what a security vehicle is doing there. Beverly Hills is far from the city and armoured vehicles are usually used to carry valuable things within the city. 

What surprises them even more is the armoured security vehicle is heading towards the villa they are in. When it stops in front of the iron gate, two heavily armoured men jumped from the cab. They are holding machine guns. They stand on either side of the truck, guarding it. 

Watching from the courtyard, the Rudd family are terrified. They think someone from the family must have done something criminal. 

As the head of the family, Margaret opens the iron gate and walks out. The rest of the family hides behind her, watching the men. 

Then everyone notices a black car of unidentified brand pulling up behind the security truck. The car stops and the door opens. Two men and a woman step out and stride towards the courtyard. 

Judging from their appearance, these are clearly very highly important people. 

"May I ask who you are?" Margaret greets them but she doesn't recognize any of them. 

The man who seems to be the most important among them does not introduce himself or his companions, pays Margaret much attention. He is clearly looking for someone in the crowd. Guests look at each other, confused. 

"Mr Hendrix, it's an honour to meet you." James nervously greets the man as he steps forward. He often visits automotive exhibitions and recognizes the top in the car sales industry, Jimmy Hendrix. He extends his hand towards Hendrix who shakes it distractedly, but still searching the crowd. 

"Grandma. This is Mr Hendrix, the top in the luxurious car sales industry in the USA."Everyone wants to greet Hendrix but none of them dares to disturb him, as he is clearly not interested in anyone here, and looking for something else. 

The woman accompanies Hendrix whispers something to him. 

"Wait a moment." He says to his companions. 

"Mr Gesell. Are you here?" He calls loudly. 

Margaret becomes more confused," Mr Hendrix, this is a gathering of the Rudd family, there's no one with the family name of Giselle here."

Everyone nods in agreement. 

They don't even think of Silvio as they think it is impossible for him to have anything to do with the amazing group. 

The woman tries to make a call. 

Then, there is a sound of  ringtone coming from the garden. He is surprised as it is a sound from a cheap handphone. 

The family members curse Silvio as they think his ringtone is disturbing the event.

However, Hendrix and his group are happily following the sound to the courtyard.

Rudd family is dumbfounded as they realize what is happening.

Hendrix has an expression of joy when he recognizes Silvio standing there. 

"Mr Gesell!" He quickly strides to Silvio. His companions follow. Surprised, Kelly helps Silvio stand up, and they both turn around. 

When the family members look at Silvio again, understanding slowly starts to dawn on them. They realize he isn't a lowlife they thought he was. 

"Hello, Mr Gesell." Hendrix smiles ingratiatingly as he holds Silvio's hand with both of his hands. He introduces one of his companions. 

"This is Mr Gattuso, the President of Bugatti. He comes to America specifically to meet you."

Silvio nods as Gattuso takes the initiative to reach out and they both shake hands. 

Everyone in the family is in uproar. The man from the news, the President of Bugatti is in front of their eyes, giving respect to Silvio. Is Silvio the one who purchases the most expensive Bugatti in history? 

Kelly looks at Silvio with her eyes wide open and her mind goes blank. She suddenly feels she doesn't know Silvio at all. The true Silvio Giselle is a mystery to her.

"Have you brought my car?" 

"It's here. It's right outside. Mr Gesell, please." 

Hendrix replies as he gestures towards the truck. The family step back in panic to make way for Silvio to walk past them towards the truck. 

"Mr Gesell, I will get the car down for you now." 

Hendrix says as he signals to the two heavily armoured men. They go to the back and use their key to unlock the truck door. 

The door opens and the ramp is lowered, a car slowly moves towards Silvio. 

It is a rare white Bugatti. Gattuso walks to Silvio and says, "Mr Gesell, this is the most valuable car sold by Bugatti." 

He presses the car's key fob and all the lights lit up. Some are sky blue, some are gold. It looks more like a transformer than a car. 

"This is the most custom made car by Bugatti. It's different from any other car we manufactured in the past.... "

Hendrix then explains in length. Listening to Hendrix's explanation, the Rudd family are captivated. Their gaze never leaves the luxurious Bugatti that is in front of them. 

They feel extremely honoured just to have this heavenly car parked by their villa. Hendrix continues, 

"Mr Gesell, this car has the most advanced Artificial intelligence technology. Please enter your fingerprint on the car keys, you will officially become its exclusive owner." He respectfully hands the keys over to Silvio, and under his guidance, Silvio records his fingerprint. 

The family who insulted him before now cheers. Now, they revere Silvio like God. 

"Mr Hendrix. Can this car record other people's fingerprint?" Silvio asks. 

"It is possible. If that other person records his fingerprint, he also would become the joint owner of this car."

Silvio nods in satisfaction. He holds Kelly's hand and instructs Hendrix, "Please record her voice now." 

Kelly is dazed. Silvio is giving her the right to drive the most expensive car. Her family members are also moved. Hendrix goes to Kelly, raises a small microphone at her and says, "Miss, please say a few words. Anything that comes into your mind." 

She looks at Silvio, who is also smiling at her. She yells, "Silvio, I love you!" 

Hendrix says, "All right, your voice has been recorded."

" Mr Gesell, do you want to try it out now?" 

He nods. 

He Lowe's his body and sits in the driver's seat. He glances at Kelly, "Do you want to try it with me?" Kelly smiles and climbs into the passenger seat. The door closes slowly while Kelly throws her BMW key at Fan Binbing. 

Silvio starts the car and just from the sound of the engine, everyone could tell it is the best car ever. 

As the car moves away, the four exhaust cylinders at the back, throw out four flames. By the time the flame disappeared, the legendary Bugatti was already a hundred yards away. 

The family feels ashamed when they remember how they had mocked him, and if they could turn back the clock to when they first met him, they would treat him with respect. 

Although Margaret looks calm, inside she is full of regret.
