The news that he had to reveal his identity came as a unexpected yet expected surprise that he had to think on it for hours. If he calculated rightly, Oliver still did not know his identity yet as the Prince, his brother, and as Adonis, and he still didn’t want the latter to find out. But he couldn’t run away from that anymore. He had to accept the fact that they were going to know his identity sooner or later. But it seemed better later than sooner. But meanwhile, the next day, Adonis made up his mind to get a new set of clothes as a change. His old, casual ones were wearing out, and were bringing him batches of insults, so he needed a change. That he wanted a low-key profile didn’t mean he was going to keep on dressing like someone he needed desperate financial help, which was not his status anymore. He left the hotel for the nearest cloth shopping store, and the one he found made his insides scream perfection. It was as small as a boutique, yet had a glamorous and inviting ext
A Rise to the Throne Chapter 27: Getting Aquainted.
Adonis introduced himself to Valerie, then she insisted on buying him the clothes he needed.But Adonis, being gentlemanly with a standard to not allow a lady, whatever her status, buy him something so expensive, declined her offer incessantly. He would get them himself and not put her to doing it. All he needed to do was figure out what had happened to his card.Something inside of him didn’t want him to leave her without getting to know her at least, and when she asked him to grab brunch with her at the nearest coffee shop, he didn’t decline.“So, what’d you do that Oliver was insistent on bullying you?” she asked as they were seated at a table by the glass wall facing the busy street inside the coffee shop that was overwhelmed with the aroma of brimmed coffee and baked goods, two glasses of smoothie in different flavors on each of their side on the table. “I mean, he does bully people a lot, but not people he doesn’t know, else you’ve done something to him.”“I…” Adonis didn’t wan

Prompted by his employee's question, Mr. Joe, the owner of the hotel, came down to the reception to know the reason why such question was asked. There, he met Adonis – the man he’d thought low of the first time he’d seen him and Valerie – the lady from abroad and deserving of respect – standing at the reception table where his employee stood behind.“Is there a problem here?” he asked when he drew closer. Adonis gave the man a look over, his mind confirming the fact that he was the owner of the hotel from his memory of him.“Sir,” the receptionist remarked to her boss. “This man thought he’d paid for the room he lodged in recently for three weeks. That was why I called to confirm, sir.”The man casted a snide look at Adonis.“And is he trying to argue?” he asked. The receptionist couldn’t give a proper answer as she fixed her gaze on Adonis who was thinking a way out of his situation. “Sir, ” the man began speaking to Adonis. “Our records have it that you only paid for a few days, an

They went to different locations in the city, driving in Valerie's car, but the park was the only place she was so delighted in going to.Valerie squealed with glee as she marveled at the beautiful scenery of the lighted park, gracing the expanse of the night. The cheer and chatter of many people aside them filling the atmosphere of the park as most of them there were having fun, some riding the roller coaster, others the carousels, and most – many other games. She was amazed at the fact that the park reminded her of her home back at New Jersey. Its liveliness even at night, the eruption of cheerful fun…She wanted to get on that rollercoaster. “Do you ride roller coasters, Don?” she piped up over the noise of people as she turned to look Adonis who's eyes and attention surveyed the environment as a sense of familiarity washed over him. It'd been so long a while since he had been to this park – but now that he was here, it brought back happy memories. His first carousel ride had been

Work desired his attention, yet the shackles of annoyance, frustration and hatred for the man he’d wanted to desperately ridicule gripped him tight. Piles of paperwork filled the table in Oliver's room – paperwork he needed to attend to soonest – but the desire to bring to shame that coffee blonde man than had in all manners disrespected him plunged through him deeper. He very well knew that the guy would have been ridiculed the day before at that clothing store if Valerie hadn’t come and nosedived into the matter. Anger surged through him as his muscles contracted, dispersing the hard sense of tension in the atmosphere of the room. He didn’t want to let the matter pass; he never let any matter as this that involved his mockery pass him by without properly taken care of. Though he did not know the guy well, although from what his private investigator had found out, the guy was Adonis, Harriet's ex-husband. That discovery alone made him pissed that he’d blacklisted Adonis and thought o

“This city has a beautiful, captivating sky,” Valerie remarked, her gaze fixed outside the glass wall of the restaurant at the full moon, standing in all its night glory over the clouds. Adonis watched her as she admired the captivating scenery of the night sky, taking up a spoon of his casserole dish into his mouth. They'd decided earlier during the day that they would have dinner at this restaurant; BAYLIE'S KITCHEN, it was called, when they were done for that day's tour as it was very close to the hotel and seemed to have good food varieties and ratings when Valerie had checked it up on the net. “You sound like where you came from didn’t have a beautiful night sky,” Adonis pointed out and she turned to gaze at him. “Occasionally,” she replied, taking up a piece of chips from the appetizer bowl set at the center of the table. She dipped it into ketchup before throwing it into her mouth.” I don’t get to see the moon all the time because the clouds covers it up, but since I came her

CHAPTER THIRTY TWO: COUNTER SAVINGMinutes passed as they were still knelt down on the ground, with these armed men deciding on what to do with them while Adonis reeled his mind on different thoughts.“Hey!” The leader remarked snidely at Adonis, waiving his gun in the air to get his attention, which he did. “Listen,” The man stepped away from his league of hoodlums and squatted closer to him. From the close distance, Adonis could only see the shape of the man's eyes, and its color – more of green that brown in them. It was almost memorable and easy to recall.“Now you’re gonna come with us, because you’re the one we have a problem with and not your girlfriend over there,” he nodded in the direction of Valerie who still was shaken with anxiety at what she’d heard them say. They wanted Adonis, so it was obvious someone wanted him out of their way.No one needed to tell him that it was Oliver behind all of this.Oliver was the only one he had problem with, and the only one he knew coul

The next day, Valerie had to leave for work; the reason why she’d travelled down to this city, and Adonis insisted on driving her there, as she still did not seem to have a relaxed state of mind to drive. After dropping her off and promising to come back to drive her home later in the evening when she had closed from work, he parked at a corner blocks away from the company he'd dropped her off at and phoned Jesse immediately. When Jesse answered the phone call, he CHAPTER THIRTY THREE: POWER USAGEboomed with inquisitiveness through the phone.“Found anything?”The previous night, after he’d watched Valerie sleep, he had called Jesse to get him to figure out who those men were that had attacked them. Since Jesse was trustworthy enough to get information at a quicker pace, he assumed he would have found out something about them now.He needed to treat Oliver's fuck up, and punish the gang that had accepted to carry out his scheming plans.“Yes, your highness.” Jesse replied.
