CASTLES
DAMIAN HAWKE.
Stephanie Cole
Good day, this is Stephanie Cole coming to you live from Reeve city with breaking news . . .
Stephanie Cole
For years the multi billionaire C.E.O, Damian Hawke had done nothing but fly under the raider. Hidden, ambiguous and vague to the public eye.
Stephanie Cole
He has given not as much as a single Intel about himself to anyone.
Stephanie Cole
Having no reference to who he is, where he's from or what he's like, he has been constantly perceived as nothing other than a shadow in the aristocratic community.
Stephanie Cole
Leaving him as one of the biggest mysteries in the world.
Stephanie Cole
But two weeks ago the global clandestine took to himself to perform one of the greatest novelties ever known in Reeve and probably the world. . .
Stephanie Cole
The Historic monument known as the Angeloktro fortress __founded in the ancient city of Corfu and speculatively dated to the early Byzantine period between 5th-7th century AD__ has been acquired by none other than the infamous Damian Hawke.
Stephanie Cole
Two weeks ago, he was given legal rights to the vicinity and declared the sole and private owner of the property by the federation who once personally oversaw the affairs of this monument . . .
Stephanie Cole
Although the exact price transacted has not been verified and is still left at our disclosure.
Stephanie Cole
The Federation approved a speculation range of nothing less than £599M.
Stephanie Cole
Yet, one thing remains certain amongst all ambiguity;
Stephanie Cole
The Castle which took about a hundred and fifty years to structure, was taken down and completely remodelled by Damian Hawke in less than Twelve months.
Stephanie Cole
This info has been confirmed CREDIBLE by Damian Hawke himself.
Stephanie Cole
Which brings us to the last but not in anyway the least surprise in this hurricane of surprises.
Stephanie Cole
Better hold on to your dresses ladies cus this one's a buster.
Stephanie Cole
Ladies, Gentlemen, Parents, Kids, People of Earth, . . .
Stephanie Cole
I humbly introduce you to our special guest for tonight.
Stephanie Cole
Making his first and only appearance on live television since he became known to the green globe.
Stephanie Cole
C.E.O of the fabled Falcone Enterprise, Founder of dozen multi billionaire organisations, a Model philanthropist and Aristocratic legend . . .
Stephanie Cole
Mr. Damian Hawke.
Stephanie Cole
Thank you for joining us, i think I speak for the world when I say it is a tremendous pleasure to have you here. LIVE. on set. On national television.
Lord Damian Hawke
Nice to be here, Stephanie. . .
Stephanie Cole
Speaking about being on live television;
Stephanie Cole
I believe this is your first time to ever give a comment nonetheless be on set.
Stephanie Cole
So how has national television on live streaming got you? . . .
Lord Damian Hawke
Absolutely nerve racking.
Lord Damian Hawke
A little bit of cold feet but I think I'll do fine.
Lord Damian Hawke
Thanks for asking by the way deary.
He flashed a billion dollar smile and then winks at the news host. . .
Stephanie Cole
A pleasure.
Stephanie Cole
Now let's talk about what_apparently_the world wants to know.
Stephanie Cole
Correct me if am wrong but you have been just as real as a sunken treasure.
Stephanie Cole
Not non-existent in particular.
Stephanie Cole
No, just very distant.
Stephanie Cole
Your work, your life and your acquisition has been kept at the utmost discretion from the press and the world. Until today.
Stephanie Cole
And that begs the question "why".
Stephanie Cole
You have made numerous acquisitions, accomplishments and donations in the past.
Stephanie Cole
If not for yourself, for the betterment of others.
Stephanie Cole
But not once have you ever stepped up to take credit or acknowledgement for it.
Stephanie Cole
Two weeks ago, that changed.
Stephanie Cole
The public mystery demystified and the global puzzle unsolved.
Stephanie Cole
Not only did you personally acquire a Greek monument.
Stephanie Cole
You took accreditation.
Stephanie Cole
But it doesn't end there.
Stephanie Cole
Ever since, the press had been driving only on speculations and rumors of you.
Stephanie Cole
But now, you'd given exclusives.
Stephanie Cole
To blogs, to papers, news outlets and now you're on live television.
Stephanie Cole
If it were anybody it would've been just another day in Reeve.
Stephanie Cole
But when it comes to you, . . .
Stephanie Cole
I must say, it is quite a novelty.
Stephanie Cole
It seems you've given up the shady business altogether.
Stephanie Cole
But above that. . .
Stephanie Cole
It also seems like you're trying to make a point.
Stephanie Cole
A lot of ideas are flying around about this, . . .
Stephanie Cole
But the most common is that you have a ploy.
Stephanie Cole
Would you care to enlighten us and put an end to the debauchery? . . .
Lord Damian Hawke
Who said first time on television would be easy?. . .
Lord Damian Hawke
Well, I'd like to formally thank you for that historical butt kissing. You did exceptionally well flattering me out of my pants I assure you.
Stephanie Cole
Gratitude well taken.
Lord Damian Hawke
Of course, I would not disagree to the fact that I had not been__uh, Outright to the press in the past years.
Lord Damian Hawke
And definitely wouldn't deny the level of discretion I exhibited in those years.
Lord Damian Hawke
To the notions of the public, I refute nothing either. However, I would like to clearly elucidate.
Lord Damian Hawke
There is a reason for my sudden "act of novelty".
Lord Damian Hawke
A reason deeper than what meets the public eye . . .
Lord Damian Hawke
I must however debunk the speculations of it being to make a mere point.
Lord Damian Hawke
To the public, I have nothing to prove.
Lord Damian Hawke
In all honesty, . . .
Lord Damian Hawke
The Angelokastro fortress had always been of some emotional importance to me that I just couldn't help being selfish in attaining it for myself.
Stephanie Cole
And what connection could force millions out of the hands of the world's shadiest person.
Stephanie Cole
Not to mention, forcing him out of the shadows along with it.
Damian Hawke scoffs and adjusts himself in his seat.
He sits cross-legged and turns to face the Host directly.
Lord Damian Hawke
Back in the day, when I was much__, much younger.
Lord Damian Hawke
I had this dream;
Lord Damian Hawke
A dream to move into the fortress of Angelokastro with my parents.
Lord Damian Hawke
I wanted it so that I hoped, nay, prayed deeply for the day it would be realized.
Lord Damian Hawke
But sadly
Lord Damian Hawke
My father was unqualified to acquire this asset.
Lord Damian Hawke
Not at that time and probably not ever.
Lord Damian Hawke
For whatever reason it was. he was promised never to attain the castle.
Lord Damian Hawke
Not by legal means at least.
Lord Damian Hawke
So I made a counter promise to my parents
Lord Damian Hawke
I would acquire the castle and move in with my family
Lord Damian Hawke
The dream didn't change.
Lord Damian Hawke
It developed
Lord Damian Hawke
Before it was a wish hoped for
Lord Damian Hawke
Later, it became a goal worked for.
Lord Damian Hawke
A vision even
Lord Damian Hawke
Unfortunately, . . .
Lord Damian Hawke
My parents were __murdered before this goal of mine was achived
Lord Damian Hawke
And with that, things did change
Lord Damian Hawke
Greatly.
Lord Damian Hawke
Not only did I loose hope . . .
Lord Damian Hawke
I lost will
Lord Damian Hawke
And dare I say, . . .
Lord Damian Hawke
I lost the dream
Lord Damian Hawke
The dream lost it's lustre and the goal, it's purpose.
Lord Damian Hawke
The promise lost it's worth.
Lord Damian Hawke
The dream had no meaning and holding unto it was nothing more but meaningless.
Lord Damian Hawke
I had long abandoned such ambitions until recently.
Lord Damian Hawke
I was reminded by a comrade the true purpose behind the dream.
Lord Damian Hawke
What was a true resolve could never be lost.
Lord Damian Hawke
The passion behind the dream was that I and my family move into the fortress and call it home.
Lord Damian Hawke
And I came to realize that this dream was never lost.
Lord Damian Hawke
Be it the family I was brought up or the family I would bring myself.
Lord Damian Hawke
Old or new, . . .
Lord Damian Hawke
Family remains family.
Lord Damian Hawke
And with family, Angelokastro, had always and would continue to be home to me.
Lord Damian Hawke
I had not failed my promise to my parents.
Lord Damian Hawke
I promised them to legally own the castle and dwell with my family.
Lord Damian Hawke
These are my exact intentions.
Stephanie Cole
A back story that leaves you at the edge of your seat and the brink of tears.
Stephanie Cole
Everything sealed was done so for a reason. A real can of worms back there.
Stephanie Cole
Such a touching history, I must tell you.
Stephanie Cole
And I am profoundly glad you found it in your heart to share such with with us.
Lord Damian Hawke
It was a privilege Darling. don't mention.
Stephanie Cole
Who knew such darkness erodes the past of the fabled Damian Hawke.
Stephanie Cole
But it is light at the end of the tunnel for all of us, as we are soon to celebrate the matrimony of a new Ms. Hawke.
Stephanie Cole
Speaking of which, would we be getting a scoop extra on this exclusive on who the lucky Madame might be?.
Lord Damian Hawke
Heh. Heh.
Lord Damian Hawke
There is a lot i indubitably plan for.
Lord Damian Hawke
Sadly a Ms. Hawke isn't one of them.
Lord Damian Hawke
But a young Master, . . .
Lord Damian Hawke
That is something to look out for.
Stephanie Cole
You had been many things in my eyes Damian Hawke.
Stephanie Cole
A leader, An entrepreneur, A go getter, An over achiever, Role model . . .
Stephanie Cole
But not once did you strike me as a father.
Stephanie Cole
Guess you're a lot different from what we imagine.
Lord Damian Hawke
Then again, haven't I always?.
They both share a soft yet deep stare. So infinitesimal it lasted for a second but so intense it could hardly be ignored.
In a glimpse, Stephanie's expression turned as she switched to the main camera with her professional countenance splayed on her face like it was never altered.
Stephanie Cole
You heard it here folks.
Stephanie Cole
The acquisition of the Angelokastro was nothing more than a fuffiled dream.
Stephanie Cole
And now Damian Hawke sets off in pursuit of happiness as a family guy.
Stephanie Cole
Hold on to your spectacles people cuz from here on out, things are about to get balling in the house of Hawke.
Stephanie Cole
I can tell this would be one for history.
Stephanie Cole
Books, media sensations and potential TV shows would be made out of this.
Damian Hawke muffles a chuckle with a heart warming expression on his face😅.
Stephanie Cole
Thank you again for joining us on the news segment.
Stephanie Cole
We do hope you choose to honour us with your presence, sometime soon.
Lord Damian Hawke
The honour is all mine Miss Stephanie.
Lord Damian Hawke
Of course, I do look forward to seeing you again.
Lord Damian Hawke
But the broadcast, . . .
Lord Damian Hawke
Very unlikely.
Damian Hawke is now out of the studio and is standing on a balcony, at the very top of the media tower.
Damian takes a squinted look at his phone.
He swipes the answer button.
Andrew Reynold
☏︎An outstanding performance sir.
Lord Damian Hawke
Reynold, . . .
Andrew Reynold
☏︎I think that would be enough to calm the present ruse in the city.
Andrew Reynold
☏︎At least for a while.
Lord Damian Hawke
A short while.
Lord Damian Hawke
Fortunately that is all we need for the next part of the plan.
Andrew Reynold
☏︎And may i inquire what this "next" part is? . . .
Damian Hawke pauses for a while and looks out to the wide scape of the city before saying . . .
Lord Damian Hawke
Finding the prince.
Damian stands on the balcony shaded under the light of the moon with his coat wafting to the wind above the streets of the city.
