A Billionaire in Disguise; Worthless to Worthy son-in-law. CHAPTER 308.
Bridget ran inside and collapsed onto her soft, queen-sized bed. Her sobs soaked a patch of the sheets as she turned over to face the ceiling, her tears refusing to stop.Everything felt so surreal. Everyone's acting so chill like Kendrick didn't mean anything to them… everyone just moved on so easily. It was like he was a fleeting memory—easily erased. Even his best friend, Xavier, had moved on like it was nothing.Her thoughts spiraled as she considered the grim reality of her situation. Her life was now at the mercy of Maverick, a man driven by greed. The endless possibilities of what he might do consumed her mind until exhaustion took over, and she fell into an uneasy sleep.°“How is she?” Kendrick asked the moment Xavier entered the room.Xavier shot him a glare as he shut the door behind him. “What do you think?”Kendrick didn’t reply. Instead, he took another sip of whiskey, his expression unreadable.“She’s miserable,” Xavier muttered. “She’s a shadow of herself, and Maverick

The clanging of metal echoed through the corridor, mingling with the blaring of a security alarm, as Maverick's uncle was escorted from his prison quarters into the visiting room. His arms and legs were shackled, the chains rattling with each step. He sank into the chair across from Maverick with a heavy sigh, his movements deliberate and his demeanor cold.His face was a mask of stone, unreadable, with no hint of emotion.“Is Kendrick dead?” His gravelly voice cut through the silence, sharp and direct.Maverick forced a nervous smile, attempting to mask his unease. “Good day, Uncle,” he greeted, his tone strained. “And yes… he’s dead.”“Then what are you waiting for?” his uncle growled, tugging at his restraints with a grimace. “Get me out of here!”“Of course. I will,” Maverick assured him, his voice smooth, though his eyes betrayed a flicker of hesitation. “As soon as I secure the assets and Kendrick’s fortune.”A flicker of approval crossed his uncle’s face. “Good. And his wife?”

Before Bridget could reply, the bartender leaned forward again, undeterred. “Seriously, though. If you want to ditch this place, I can help.” He winked, his confidence irritating Bridget even more.“I don’t need your suggestions,” she snapped before turning back to Lisa. “Leave me alone Bridget, I'm fine. If you really care, go cry somewhere.” She shot, regretting those words immediately they came out. “I'm so sorry!” She apologized, trying to hold her hand.She fell on her knees and rubbed both hands as she begged Bridget. “I'm sorry” she mouthed.Bridget looked at her, tears gathering in her eyes. She felt terrible. She didn't expect this from her.“Hey—hey, Please, I'm sorry__ that came out wrong.” She said, holding her hand but Bridget moved and pulled her hand away.“Thanks for the trip.” She said, her tone was cold… tears flowed down her face freely as she walked away.“Bridget…” Lisa attempted to get up and go after her but the bartender held her back. “Let her be.” He said. “

“Don't worry_ I've got the house cell number. I have a walkie talkie with me__ and—” he searched himself, finding that he didn't miss anything. He continued. “Well, if I'm in trouble, be rest assured that I'll reach out to you.” he winked.Xavier wasn't content.“So this place__ where exactly are you going?” he asked, his eyebrows furrowed with worry. “In case you go missing I could get the search men to find you at that location.”“I don't know_” Kendrick shrugged. “Swanee, Monroe…” he tried to guess possible places he might go but gave up, the list was endless.“You know what they say_ Atlanta is a city in the forest. So__” He shrugged. “So, you're using the sports bike I saw outside?” Xavier asked.“Yeah— cool right?” — he smiled from cheek to cheek, like a little boy excited about balloons. “When did you learn how to ride a bike?” Xavier wondered, his eyes narrowing as curiosity filled his eyes.“Seriously_ what a question.” Kendrick face palmed himself. “I know how to do a lot

Hanging delicately on the high cliff of a picturesque mountain. Kendrick tugged his hands into the fine sand inside a small sac dangling behind his back. Sweat drops clustered all over his face and stopped, turned and stared back at the distance… how far he'd come. Then he aimed for another point with his hand. He grabs it and pulls himself up. He did the same again but missed, he almost slipped but found his stance on one hand before launching again to the other point where he felt was safer. He let out a victorious laugh when he succeeded. He stayed there for a while taking deep breaths.He looked at the clear sky and admired it but it wasn't long until the blinding sun rays forced him to find coverage for his exposed eyes. He narrowed his eyes to reduce the effect of the sun on them and looked away. He closed his eyes and steadied his breath. Eventually, a picture of Bridgette floods his mind. Her beauty radiates through his eyes as blinding and captivating as the sunrays.There

“Is he scared you'd try to fight him off? Why the hurry?” Kendrick asked, not as surprised as he sounded.“No idea.” Xavier shrugged, exhaling sharply. “When he saw me the other day at the mansion_ the time I went to see Bridget? He was shocked to his bones and didn't seem pleased to see me at all.” Xavier explained.“He told me right there and then that you left him in charge so… in other words he was asking me to back off.”“That's if I ever had an intention of fighting over the properties with him.” he added, sarcasm in his tone, he flipped the pages of the file in his hand.“But there's no handwritten document that states I left him in charge.” Kendrick retorted, narrowing his eyes to avoid the piercing rays of the sun. “Yes_ even so. You controlled some of the Rogers assets and he stands as an heir.” Xavier explained.“Oh!” He realized.“Gosh, it's so hot up here_ and windy too.” Kendrick muttered, away from the subject matter. The wind, playing with his hair.“He intends to set

“That's a bad idea Lisa.” Bridgette slammed, shoving it off.“Think about it_” she went on, not backing down. “Something enticing for the eyes. Appetizers for the soul and body but we aren't eating them—No.” She cajoled, raising her index finger, she waved a no in the air.“Don't tell me you don't miss the days when Kendrick shoved his rod up your folded sheets.” She flattered, giggling. Her words were convincing and impairing. She got on the pole and wrapped her flexible, feminine legs around it, her arms grabbed it and she let her legs spin her around. She swirled and twirled on it, tilted back and balanced in the air, making stunts Bridgette felt were impossible… releasing her arms and letting her legs stay on the pole while she spun in all directions. Bridgette's eyes were intently watching her every move_ she must admit, she looked really sexy and fascinating on that pole. There was nothing missing, she did it like a pro–she watched in earnest amusement.She couldn't hide the

His man lover, Freddy, brought out the wine from the wine safe and popped it open. He giggled at the pop sound made from the cork on the wine's seal……Then poured some of its contents into two glasses. He gave Maverick one while he played with the other. He pulled himself on top of the table and sat there, his legs crossed. “A win for one is a win for all.” He smiled, raising the glass.“Cheers.” Their glasses clicked and they took a sip each. Maverick came closer, he smelt his face and smacked his butt, he giggled like a lady. Maverick finished the content of the entire glass and dropped it, —thud, on the table. He was ready for some serious business… he held him by the waist.He inhaled, tasting the lust in the air_ his nature tool, getting hardened underneath his pants.Freddy finished his own glass and dropped it gently on the table.“Come give me some.” Maverick said, his tone inviting and hoarse. A smug smile crept on Freddy's face, he loved to see him beg for attention.He d

Xavier’s gaze faltered. He sighed and looked away, staring into the void before him. “Kendrick was shot.” He stated. “I barely escaped.” He added.She shut her eyes tight, hoping she hadn't heard right.“ A bullet grazed my arm—it was close but not fatal.” He continued. “Everything seemed so calm, so peaceful, at first. He even talked about meeting you at the airport. He waited expecting you but…” His voice trailed off, the weight of his words settling between them.Bridget’s breath hitched. “And?” she whispered, almost inaudibly.“I tried to save him, Bridget,” Xavier said, turning to face her fully. His eyes brimmed with guilt. “The first shot caught him off guard. It was fatal. By the time we got him to our private hospital, it was too late. He… he was gone.”Bridget turned away sharply, her arms wrapping around herself as if to shield her from the reality unraveling before her. A heavy silence fell over them, each lost in their own thoughts.“I want to see his body,” she said fina
