By the time she was able to clear the video off Liam's laptop, she still hadn't noticed the USB wasn't there. She gave his laptop back and walked out. Just then, she felt kinda weird as Liam left the laptop for her to delete what she wanted without trying to stop her like he did earlier. It felt unlike him to…. Shit, the USB! She turned back and rushed back into his room. He was about to press put the USB in the laptop when she took it from him like her life depended on it. “What was that for? Are you hiding something?” Liam frowned… he should have followed his heart and locked his door but he just didn't. Maggi didn't say anything. She simply turned back and walked out of his room. The next morning, Larry, Ava and Maggi stood outside to welcome Byron who just arrived. He got down from his car and greeted Larry politely. “Son, good to FINALLY have you back.” They both shook hands but were suddenly interrupted by little Ava's voice. “Daddy! I miss you!” Her voice was a

The next morning, Byron was set to leave. As he walked past the living room, Liam asked, “Where the heck are you heading to?” Byron shifted his gaze at him, “I have something to take care of. I'm sure you can't relate since all you do is chase women.” Byron said calmly.He wasn't wrong. Liam was so nonchalant about the family business. All he was good at was going after the opposite sex. It makes Byron wonder if he indeed has a good plan in connecting with Platinum Enterprises. Liam frowned. “You…”“Save it! You can tell me when I'm back.” Byron cut him short and walked away, not caring to listen to whatever Liam had to say._At the head office of Platinum Enterprises[Emerald Hill Branch], Joanna Ibarra sat in her office on the fifth floor, anticipating the arrival of her boss.She had gotten the information that their boss was on his way to have a discussion with her. She couldn't help but feel nervous. She had seen him in newspapers and magazines but had never had the opportunit

Joanna noticed the reluctance in Liam's face. She could sense he was skeptical about the whole arrangement. “You’ve got some worries and so do we. That's why I believe It's best we leave you to think things through, Mr. Armstrong. We'd love to get feedback from you. If you're not okay with it, we can end our collaboration.” 4 billion was a lot to turn down. Liam couldn't help but nod in agreement. Buying back their shares was top priority for him as of now. Platinum Enterprises wasn't just any company. “No… there's no need, I'll sign it.” Liam said, grabbing a pen from the desk. Upon signing, Joanna extended her hand and they both shook hands. “Nice doing business with you.” “Thanks,” Liam said and brought out something from his pocket, “My wedding invitation. I'd love you to attend, it will be an honor.” Joanna smiled and accepted it. “Sure, and congratulations by the way.” And with that, Liam exited the office. Later that evening, Byron walked into the kitchen to get

Of all islands? It had to be his father's? Byron's mind wandered as he stared at the name the of the location the tracker brought.Byron smelled something fishy about the whole thing. Bringing Ethan to the Smith's property could mean two things, either the Madame knows Ethan is his investigator or the men are close to his family or even his Dad!He turned to the cab driver. “Take me to Greenville Island.”“It will cost you a hundred and fifty bucks, sir.” The man stared at the rearview mirror.Byron paid him no mind as he continued to talk to Ethan who was now breathing heavily and trying not to give up just yet.“Boss, the city to this island is about 40 minutes, I'm not sure I can make it. I'm literally weak, I can't feel my body any more.” Ethan cried.Byron raised his head at the driver. “Step on it! Go faster or we switch positions.” “I'm sorry sir but I'm way above my speed limit, what if the cops stop me? Who's going to pay?” The driver said, driving as calmly as he could.“We

Byron rubbed his chin as the men explained one after the other.“What makes you think they are close to my family?” He trusts his father could never do anything to harm him. Well… Alex, she was always on his side… it seems almost impossible for her to do such. And as for his step mother, he really couldn't say for sure.She doesn't care less about him. He was almost invincible to her and lastly, she is never around.“Taking Ethan to your father's island says a lot. It's either they are close to one of your family members or all of them. Because, as it seems now, these men are not citizens of this country, nor do they live here.” Another one chimed.“That's right, boss. Ethan being caught would have been avoided if he wasn't alone.”“Those men only come into the country when there's an operation that needs to be carried out. Once they are done, they fly out immediately.”Staring at the picture, Byron noticed one of the men didn't hand a complete finger.Three of his fingers looked cho
