Chris Bolton's Unexpected Rise To Wealth And Fame CHAPTER 146
Mabel Sanders drove straight to her normal hospital, careful to watch and observe closely if she would see anything out of the ordinary, like a car that had been behind her and stayed on her route for a long time, but there was nothing out of the ordinary. As she drove she tried to come up with an excuse to give the receptionist at the hospital as to why she needed to make use of their phone. She got to the hospital and parked her vehicle at the parking lot then brought out her phone to quickly memorize Arthur's number. She was about to step out of the car when she caught sight of the bag she had packed in the morning. Would she still need it? She was sure no car had tailed her. She would just leave it behind and go about her movement as she was supposed to. She opened the door to step out then as a last minute decision she turned and grabbed the bag. She would just play it safe and go with the other plan. She walked into the hospital and walked up to the receptionist's station with he
Chris Bolton's Unexpected Rise To Wealth And Fame CHAPTER 147
At Rose' words Michael Bolton felt his heart leap. Chris' phone could now be tracked. That was way better than having some smart barbie doll for a lead, although personally, he would have loved to have had Mabel Sanders tailed, but he had decided to let it go when the four ladies had dismissed that as a waste of time, saying that she wouldn't have let herself be seen with Chris the previous day if she had plans to be involved in a plan to kidnap him on that same day. They had said that in their opinion, Mabel Sanders was smarter than that. Personally though, Michael Bolton felt off about Mabel Sanders and he would personally have someone tail her if the lead on Chris' phone didn't bring his son back to him before 12 noon that day. In the meantime, they had to act quick. They had to follow the new lead that the location of Chris' phone had just presented and hope that it would actually take them to him. He was actually beginning to get really worried when they had still not gotten any c

Sitted impatiently at the bask sit of the speeding cab but also preferring to remain composed, Mabel Sanders tried her best not to betray any signs of nervousness. Something was certainly wrong. She could feel it really deep within her but she couldn't quite place her hands on what it was. Unconsciously, she took her right hand to her mouth and bit down on its thumb nail. This operation had certainly gotten complicated and there was no way it would still go as smoothly as she had planned. She should never have gone home the previous night. If she had just ignored her need for comfort then the money would probably be sitting in beautifully in her account already. There was no need crying over spilled milk now though. She would just have to keep hoping that everything was fine and would turn out fine and this nervousness she was feeling was just a result of the fact that she was late and she knew it could jeopardize the success of the whole operation she had worked hard to put together.
Chris Bolton's Unexpected Rise To Wealth And Fame CHAPTER 149
Rose stepped out of the vehicle with Sarah, then Monica and the other guards follow suit. She had previously given them instructions on how the operation would be carried out and each person quickly took their position; the other guards moved out and surrounded the premises while herself, Sarah and Monica headed in, accompanied by three guards, with one teaming up with which of the ladies. The six of them separated and steadily made their approach to the building. Monica and her partner went around the side of the building and with stealth they steadily approached the door which they could see. When they got to the door, Monica let her partner know that on the count of three she would go in first and he would cover her and he simply nodded in response. She nodded in response and raised her hand to give the count and when she go to three, she pushed the door open and stormed and pointed her raised gun from one direction to the other as she took in the room. She progressed further in w

Rose walked up to Michael Bolton and without a word he turned around and walked into the mansion and headed towards the stairs and she just followed after him. He didn't seem to be in a good mood and she wondered why. Had she done something wrong during the operation? She knew he had demanded to be kept connected over a call and she had dom just that, disconnecting him only when she had to ditch out instructions and when they had arrived at the inn and they'd had to go in, which when she thought about it, had also been part of his instruction; he had clearly said she could disconnect him when she absolutely had to. She looked up at his stiff back as she quietly followed after him. He seemed unually rigid and emotionless. Had Monica informed him about her refusal to look around for clues that could lead them to whoever had done this? No. Monica was too much of a close friend to do that to her. Wait. What if she had done it out of spite and anger because of how she had firmly refused he
Chris Bolton's Unexpected Rise To Wealth And Fame CHAPTER 151
Chris and Monica remained in their embrace for about a minute before Monica eventually disentangled herself and looked away. "I'm sorry if I held you too tight and I hope I didn't hurt you. I'm just so glad you're back and alive. I was quite worried." she said as she actively avoided making eye contact with him. "No. It's alright. I'm fine," Chris responded softly as he looked at her with a soft smile. After a few more seconds of silence, Chris asked "Just by the way, do we know who did this to me yet?" "No, we don't and I don't think we will." she responded and added "Not because we can't but because everyone is just really happy to have you back home and personally, I'd say it was done by some amateur and not anyone who poses any real threat or danger," she finished. "Alright then," Chris said with a nod. It was nice that they didn't think the kidnapper could be a source of any real danger or harm because Thomas Bolton and Richard were already enough of a handful to deal wit
Chris Bolton's Unexpected Rise To Wealth And Fame CHAPTER 152
Mabel Sanders stepped out of her car and stared at the door of Arthur McDoyle's house. The last time she had been in there she had been the mastermind of an amazingly great plan, a plan which had surprisingly ended up being a miserable fail. Something which would probably not have happened if she hadn't overslept. It was always the little things that caused the ruin of great things. She briefly remembered some saying about the little foxes spoiling the vine. She had decided to get "a little" sleep and had woken up to watch her well thought out plan crash and burn. A thought which caused her to grimace and look away. Bloody hell!! She had really been on a high horse with that plan and now the horse had dropped her really low. How the hell was she supposed to face Arthur McDoyle now? She had been so embarrassed that she had stalled in communicating with him for a while, as a matter of fact, she hadn't heard from him since a week ago when she had called him to get the hell out of Bobby's
Chris Bolton's Unexpected Rise To Wealth And Fame CHAPTER 153
Mabel stared at Arthur surprised. He had to be joking, right? He really couldn't be serious. What did he mean by "we don't have the money yet, do we?" Surely he couldn't still be considering coming up with underhanded ways of getting the money from the Bolton's after the massive fail of the kidnap plan, could he? She looked at him and took in his straight face. Was the man mad??!"I'm sorry what?" Mabel finally spoke up and Arthur leaned forward and clasped his hands before responding."Well, we teamed up for a reason and that reason was to achieve the common goal of making some good amount of money from the Bolton's and well, seeing how our first plan failed, we need to come up with a new plan to achieve our goal." he said and gave a shrug before he leaned back in his chair again."Arthur, is this some freaking joke??!" Mabel asked with her voice a notch higher than it had been. The man had to be freaking kidding her!!"No, Mabel, it's not "some freaking joke." I meant every sing

CHAPTER 182
Thomas Bolton grabbed a dagger and lunged at Richard with a scream and just as he was about to drive it straight through his heart, Richard quickly sidestepped and the dagger grazed his arm slightly and Thomas fell to the ground. As he struggled to get to his feet, he heard a gunshot and felt a pain sear through his left foot. Bloody bastards!! Getting shot in the foot again!! He felt two pair of arms grab him and place him firmly back on his sit. As he sat, Chris grabbed a pistol from the weapons strap on the waist of one of the guards and pointed it at Thomas' head and cocked it and Thomas smiled at him."I don't think your pretty woman's going to like you very much if you kill me now." Thomas said with a smirk. "I mean, I haven't gotten around to telling her about her lost sibling and believe me, she'd really like to know that," he finished and Chris lowered the gun. "What? You know my siblings whereabouts?" Sarah asked and looked at him with teary eyes. "Of course I do. I kep
CHAPTER 181
Thomas Bolton stared at Richard then looked at the gun in his hand. He felt betrayed. Just when he had shown a little trust in him, he had taken advantage of that trust and stabbed him in the freaking back. He had sold him to his enemies and for how much, he wondered. He looked back up at Richard and could see that his eyes were emotionless, almost like he had sold his soul or something. Thomas wondered if that change had been present in him all week and he had just been too oblivious to notice it or if Richard had actually done a very good job of masking it. What had turned him that way? He turned to look at Chris Bolton and his company. He recognized both ladies well enough. He had held one hostage amd the other, he had killed her father. Well, Chris Bolton had certainly picked his crew right. Between all three of them who seemed to be head of the group, he had certainly caused them a lot of pain and hurt. He tore his eyes away from the three of them and looked at Victor. Now that o
CHAPTER 180
Chris Bolton was sitted in Michael Bolton's study with his laptop open in front of him but his mind was occupied. He is was in love with Sarah but couldn't confess it and he knew it wasn't because he was scared of being rejected by her or because he was worried about his father not accepting it. The reason he was worried about expressing his feelings for Sarah was because of Monica. He couldn't deny the fact that they had both had some tension between them when they had initially met. He had most certainly had something for her and he felt like she she had also had a thing for him, but he wasn't sure if she still had it. He has tried not to acknowledge his feelings for Sarah for a long time because he had felt like they made him disloyal to Monica, especially if she still had those feelings. What was he going to do? Was he supposed to just ask her? Wasn't that___? His thoughts were interrupted by the sound of a knock on the door and just as he opened his mouth to call for whoever it w
CHAPTER 179
Richard aimed his gun at Luke Freeman and cocked it. Like his client Thomas Bolton, the bastard didn't deserve to live. He deserved to die and Richard without a doubt had absolutely no issue in giving him what he deserved. Besides, Thomas Bolton had betrayed him and there was no saying that the smart lawyer wouldn't betray him too. After all, it was just that afternoon that Thomas Bolton had reminded him about the possibility and risks of conversations being recorded. There was no saying that the sneaky smart ass hadn't recorded their conversation with plans to have him reported and arrested. Who knew? He really couldn't trust anyone. There was no saying that Luke Freeman wouldn't betray him because when all was said and done, Richard didn't actually have a single soul in the universe he could rely on to look out for him. He thought he had totally gotten rid of his little hopes and expectations of good from Thomas Bolton but apparently he hadn't because he could feel a tear trickle do
CHAPTER 178
Luke Freeman wordlessly took the sit Richard had motioned him into with the gun in his hand. Wasn't he the adopted son of Thomas Bolton? What did he want with him? Had they had an issue earlier in the day? Why was he in his house at such a time of the night and with a freaking handgun in his damned hand? What could he do? Should he try to set off an alarm or something? What warning signal could he send his neighbours that would alert them that he was in danger? His neighbourhood was actually quite a quiet one full of people who minded their business so the chances of anyone actually noticing whatever signal he gave was a pretty slim one and the chances of anyone noticing that signal and actually acting on it was next to non-existent. He was certainly toasted. The young man with handgun which he was freely brandishing at him, could kill him and no one would know. Why on Earth had he given in to his tiredness and not listened to the voice that had told him to stay back at the office and
CHAPTER 177
Richard remained sitted in his position as he replayed the conversation he had just listened to in his head. Well. Well. Well. It seemed like sneakily getting a voice recording of Thomas Bolton and Luke Freeman's conversation had most certainly paid off. So Thomas Bolton wanted to make some changes and adjustments to his will now, did he? That had without a doubt been the most - if not the only - important and interesting part of their conversation for Richard. He had to give it to his sixth senses for making him listen to that voice recording till the end of Thomas Bolton and Luke Freeman's conversation. What were the present contents of Thomas Bolton's will? What "changes and adjustments" could he possibly want to make? As far as Richard could tell he was the only heir of the old and insufferable bastard. Yes he was adopted but he was quite sure he was the only heir of Thomas Bolton. Didn't that naturally mean he was supposed to be the sole inheritor to all of the annoying geezer's
CHAPTER 176
It had been almost three hours since that annoying brat, Luke Freeman had appeared after being sent straight from hell to disturb Richard's peaceful afternoon and after haven restlessly and absent-mindedly seen a movie, Richard was itching to go get his phone and listen to the voice recording of Thomas Bolton and Luke Freeman's conversation. He had instructed a maid to immediately inform him about Luke Freeman's departure but she still hadn't shown up. What on Earth could the two men be talking about for so long anyways? As his mind raced with the endless possibilities about the contents of their conversation, he heard a faint knock on his door and he bolted out of his bed and rushed at the door. He opened the door and as soon as he saw the maid standing there he rushed past her without waiting for her to say a word. He headed straight for Thomas Bolton's lounge and he tried his best not to run and only appear like someone who had urgent and important matters to deal with. He soon go
CHAPTER 175
Chris Bolton stood at the entrance of Sarah's room as the realization that he was in love with her hit him. He had tried to ignore these feelings because they had been trying to get attention at a wrong time, but he couldn't ignore them anymore, not after seeing her sitted on her bed with her hair piled on top of her head in a messy bun and her upper body covered in a big sweater and that innocently welcoming smile on her face. He couldn't say for sure how long he had felt that way but he could say for sure that his feelings were very much there and alive. They actually explained a lot. They explained why he had recently began to feel so drawn to Sarah. He had tried to ignore and not acknowledge them but that hadn't sent them away. If anything, it seemed like ignoring and not acknowledging them had probably only helped them quietly grow stronger. He stood at the door and stared at her even as his discovery opened up a dam of thoughts in his head. Why had he been doing his best to igno
CHAPTER 174
In Thomas Bolton's lounge, Richard continued to take in the stranger who had walked into the lounge a little under a minute ago. From his rectangular rimless glasses to his suit pants and shirt and down to the black attorneys bag he was carrying, he certainly wasn't their usual type of company and Richard wasn't sure how he felt about him. While he didn't seem to spell danger, Richard also didn't care for his presence in the lounge as he had never really been a fan of strangers, especially when they did what he considered to be an invasion of his comfort space and invade his comfort space, this stranger was. Technically it was Thomas Bolton's but who cared? Thomas had come to accept Richard's constant presence in the lounge and Richard had definitely been enjoying it but at that moment, the stranger was taking away his comfort and Richard didn't like it one bit. He looked at him with his left eyebrow raised but the stranger just kept smiling at him. What was he? A robot? A raised eyeb
