The words were able to make Mati fall back in her steps. It was a really large amount of money for her.When their families were still in fame, it would have been easy for them to take care of it in a bit. And if Leonard was still around, it would have also been easy to paster him for the money. As stupid as he was, he could have always run around to get it for them.But now, it was like luck was not on their side anymore. She drew a deep breath, she thought that they might have been able to afford a stunning dress but now, they would not be able to do that.She drew a deep breath, it would only be wise for them to go back at this point since it was not going to be of any use for them to linger there.She sighed once again before touching her mother. But instead, Mrs. Ruth was still gritting with anger that she could hardly feel this tap.Thoughts ran through thoughts. She wished that she could rip the cashier right into halves but with the amount of guards that were littered around

The frown on Leonard's face was deepened welling up through his vines down to his spine. But with a deep breath, he was able to control himself."I would love to see the forged explanation that you would want to give to frame an innocent person." He muttered his hands crossed over his chest.The laughter that came from Mrs. Ruth could be felt and her heart echoed through the columns of the hall.After a while, she was finally able to pull a stop and she said. "Are you feeling guilty already that when I tell them the truth, they are going to take you to the prison?" She flared.But Leonard was still standing there, waiting for what she was going to say. He didn't have the power to fight it out with him anymore.Seeing the look on Leonard's face, he ignored her and turned to the guard who was still waiting for him to explain."And we are waiting." The leader of the guard finally went ahead to say."We were coming in. Of course, we were given the silver card which we had purchased. We n

Twenty four hours earlier "Good day young master Leonard. I am the caretaker of your father's consortium and I am going to be your guide for today." A man came forward to Leonard and bowed before him.He had decided to visit the company as he had been informed by Ben earlier on.From the way that sweat dripped down from the corner of his face, it was evident that he had been waiting there for quite a while.From what Leonard had already been pre informed, Mr. Matthew was going to take him through the list of his father's companies.Since it was scattered all over the city with various headquarters, they got into the car to begin their tour.The first point of call was Top Hills Technology enterprise."This enterprise was established by your father about a year before he handed it over to him and has seen a big bang in growth.While we initially began as a battery making facility for various tech companies, she has ever since grown in other areas.Top hills phones and top hills cars w

Mrs. Ruth shrunk as she continued to look at it. Mati also drew over to it to take a look at him, making her shrink on the spot.The documents said that he was the legal owner of the company. It would be easy for her to pick out that name at any point in timeHer heart quivered. She drew a stare at Leonard and back at the documents that were before her."But how was it even possible?" Her words soon broke into stutters, confusion welling through her spine.For the longest, she had known this man for quite a while. He was pitiful and useless at the same time.While she was still lost in her thoughts, Mr. Matthew turned around towards the guard. They were still shivering.The racing of their hearts echoed right throughout the whole hall, knowing that they were quite in a lot of trouble."And do I need to start explaining myself?" He thundered angrily.A cold shiver quickly ran through their lips, opening their mouths to explain what had happened but words failed them.Just then, Henry

"Are you okay?" Sophia flared the parting of her lips rising.Sofia also knew too well the implications of what she was doing, but she was just too weak to head out.Not when she was going to be drawing too much attention from men. "That's going to get the Leonard guy extremely jealous." She muttered to herself but not loud enough for Sophia to hear what she just said."Our company is running weak Sofie, we might still be powerful that wasn't going to happen in the longest world.That was the reason that they wanted Sofia to get married into a family that was going to be powerful enough before anyone was going to notice and come after their family.Their hearts ached towards the fact that Sofia was mostly cold to the men who came after all. She was never at all interested."Why does it have to be me, Sophia? I don't like anyone of them." Her stand was firm as she spoke.The brows of Sophia's eyes farrowed. "Have you ever liked anyone?" She inquired."Well." She was a little bit shor
