Adrian hurried over to his Grandpa, who was now seated at the mini bar jasmine-baron in the dining room.“Are you the one driving her home?” He asked soon as Adrian stood before him.“No Sir, she came with her car, I am just going to see her off outside to her car”“Alright, but you do know that her family owns one of the largest construction companies in town, almost bigger than ours and you can't even imagine what will be of us if we can merge with them”“Merge with them, why would you do that?”“You are wise my son, so stop acting like a fool. That is what happens when you get married to her, the company automatically becomes yours, you merge it to ours and become unbeatable in the global business”“What are you saying Grandpa, you know that she is already engaged to someone else?”“Yes, but I also know that there is someone else that she loves and that someone happens to be you!” Grandpa blurted out and this time, he was staring at Adrian in the face while Adrian lowered his hea l

As the call ended, the entire family had their gaze on Adrian while wondering how the call went. But Adrian froze right there, his eyes fixed on Sean and his wife.“Adrian, who was that, and what did they want?” Grandpa Hallow asked.“They have Avery and have requested that they are going to kill her in the next twenty-four hours unless I step down as the heir to the company and make a public note regarding this that I will be handing over the company to Harper.”Adrian explained coldly, his voice almost sounding like a whisper, and at that moment, there was a profound silence in the room with all eyes fixed on Sean.“Why are you all staring at me like that, I have nothing to do with these!” Sean exclaimed, obviously trying to clarify himself.“Yes, we all know that you wouldn't do something like that. It is not like you have ever been interested in anything that has to do with the company, but these people know Harper and they took Avery because they felt like Adrian would surrender

Sitting down there, Amelia could immediately recall the thought and how Kelvin had put all of that into her, especially since she had never had an interest in the company.“Yes I did say something like that, but that doesn't mean you get to suspect me about doing such like I could pull it off even if I wanted to”“Yes you could, considering your long line of connection especially with people involved in illegal dealings so if you ask me, I am going to say that you are capable of pulling it off”“But I didn't! I have no hand in it and I hate the fact that you would even ask me something like this I have to because you have been having funny ideas lately and I was wondering why you would even want Harper to join the company all of a sudden when you never thought of that”Sean insisted But Amelia was silent for a while before she rose to her feet and curled up the bed next to me.“I am sorry that I thought about that but never did I imagine that Avery will be abducted at the same time an

Mr. Smith could feel his body sore and ache very intensely as he rose from the bed. After what happened the other time and the fact that Jason had failed to hold onto Adrian, Mr. Smith has been running for his life knowing that the sanctuary was the only place that he could hide.He had just woken up from another day of nightmares where he could not stop himself from seeing the dark glares of Adrian. His heart was panting heavily and it was at this moment that Mr. Smith realized that it was the buzzing of his phone that had saved him from today's nightmare.Mr. Smith stared at his phone and sighed, there was a message on his phone, he picked up his phone and slowly glanced through it, it was more debit after another.Ever since His wife and daughter left for Paris, he thought that it was safer; it had been from one debit on his credit card to another, and at this point, Mr. Smith was panting heavily as he felt like his heart was going to choke.Just when he was trying to get in fact t

Fin stood right there as he watched the car drive into the company's premises, his teeth clenched in rage, and all he wanted was a way to belittle Adrian in front of Kelly and take her away from him.Kelly made sure that everything was in order at the office, and as soon as Adrian stepped in, a smile crept to her lips that was painted with a pink lip while she followed behind him, her heels not hesitating to make those noises that made her presence known to everyone.“Good morning Sir!”“Yeah, Kelly…”“What you saw outside, I had no idea that Fun would be coming to find me at my workplace, the last time he did such a thing, I warned him about it and thought he was not going to come to find me again, I promise you that nothing is going on between the both of us”“And why are you telling me all of this?”“Because I need you to understand nothing is going on between Finn and me, and it is never going to happen!”“I don't care about that, Kelly. It is your private life, and I do not want
