However, he quickly shook his head at the thought, finding it impossible. "Don't be fooled by him, Daniel. He's just a loser. He's a goodfornothing who's leeching off his wife and her family. You mistook him for that person." "If you think I'm lying ask his mother-in-law and his sister-in-law. They are all here and can attest that what I'm saying is the truth." Daniel sighed and tore his eyes away from him. "Whenever you open your mouth I'm overwhelmed with the urge to just kill you. How could a person be this daft?" Vinny still refused to get the hint. "I don't know what he has told you, but I want you to believe me. I'm telling you the truth. If he told you he's that person, his lying. I'm telling you. Don't be fooled by him." Daniel tightened his grip on Vinny's hair and slapped him across the face. "Shut up! I gave you one instruction. Just one and you failed at it woefully." Vinny grimaced and swore, "I swear to you that I've been on my best behaviour and I also swear to y

Springdale Police Station Henry Button sat solemnly in one of their cells. He would get up and bang at the protector whenever an officer was passing by and yell, "My uncle knows Daniel Voltia. If you would just let me call Daniel Voltia with your phone I assure you you'll get $100,000 once I'm out of here. I promise you." Most of the officers he said this to were tempted, but Daniel was a dangerous person none of them wanted to involve themselves with in anyway. "You over there, someone has paid for your bail." Henry's eyes snapped towards the female officer who said that and then at the person who was being referred to. He got up and walked to the protector and spoke to the officer. "Do you have a phone with you? Please let me use it and I assure you I'll give you $100,000 when I'm out of here." The officer raised her head to look at him and snickered. "So you're the one who's offering that to every officer who comes in here."Henry nodded vigorously and flashed her a smile. "

For the past few months after Ethan returned, he had been staying in Chloe's room. She wasn't comfortable with him sharing the same bed with her, so she gave him a duvet and let him sleep on the long couch on the room. He'd wake up early to shower and leave the room for Honey's so she had the whole room to herself. It had been this way for months. Until that morning when Chloe opened the door to their room to see a muscular, 183cm man drying his wet hair in front of her mirror. For a moment, she lost her composure as she stared at his broad shoulders which tapered down to a narrow waist, accentuating his masculine physique. The droplets of water which were still on his skin, glistened on his smooth, toned back, tracing the contours of his well-defined muscles. With each move he made, his back muscles flexed, creating an alluring silhouette. Suddenly, he stopped moving and Chloe's eyes happened to settle on the mirror where she finds him watching her with dark eyes. Her ears ins

Judah Heith remained kneeling on the floor for several minutes before he got up and sat back on his chair. He was in the coffee shop for another half an hour slowly sipping his coffee with a thoughtful look on his face.When he was done with his coffee, he took out his wallet and placed on the table, then covered it with the coffee cup. He walked out of the coffee shop and sighed as he saw the downcast eyes of the men he had come with. Where Judah and Ethan were seating was barricaded with a tempered glass. While the men hadn’t heard a word the two said, they had all seen Ethan walk out of the shop while Judah was still on his knees. They needed no one to tell them their mission to get Ethan to Wexford County was a failure. Just like Judah, they had also taken a risk on their lives to be here to persuade Ethan. But it seemed to be all for nothing. He shook his head slightly and got into the backseat of the Audi in front of him. The others did the same. Inside the car, the drive

Lewis stood rooted to the spot the whole time as everyone answered their telephone. They went from trying to calm down everyone who was in a partnership with them, to those people terminating their partnerships without waiting to hear what they had to say. It seemed like a very bad dream. After watching them for several minutes, he did what he knew best. He whipped out his phone and hurriedly called Adam. Adam William was in the backseat of his car as his driver drove him to the airport to pick up a visiting relative when Lewis’ call came in. He answered the call immediately and Lewis’ panicked voice came up. “Grandfather, there’s something wrong. Astoria Corporation suddenly called to say they’re ending their partnership with us.” “Other companies who partner with us seem to have heard the news and have begun calling the cancel their partnership with us. The entire company is in a frenzy. What do I do?” Adam’s brows knitted together in confusion upon hearing his grandson. “Wha
