"We have found critical information about the sister Lucy and apparently, she is admitted in the infamous Star hospital." Wiles listened attentively as his informant spoke on the phone."How many guards are with her?" Wiles asked."Guards? There is no security threat boss, it's almost like the man forgot he had a sister." Hearing those words gave Wiles a glimpse of hope. It was the perfect plan to have to end his sister and destabilize the new heir."Very well then, wait for me right there and I and the men would be with you in a minute." It was the moment he had been waiting for, it almost felt like things were meant to happen this way for him to do all he needed to do.Wiles attempted ringing Maximus, but the line wasn't going through and this made him believe that his boss would have call the shot on Lucy.Heading outside the apartment, some of his men were outside and together they got into the long black vehicle. Wiles had one thing in mind and that was to end it up on one clean
“The maid told me that you haven’t been touching your food. Do you want to die?” Maximus asked his gaze on the direction of the food. “Death is more pleasurable at this point than living.” Victoria replied with ease. Maximus realized that she seemed to have given up and at this point a mere killing of Victoria would simply be in her favor. He didn’t want to kill Victoria, he wanted Victoria to suffer so much pain.“You really think I am going to persuade you to eat your food? If you starve to death, it is your choice.” Maximus finished off and left the dungeon afterwards.Once Maximus was out of sight, Victoria realized that he didn’t have human sympathy. It was slowly beginning to appear to her that Maximus would be the first person to celebrate her death. At first, Victoria had believe death would be the ultimate price for all her suffering, but she refused that option, when she realized that she had Maverick to live for. Victoria knew that she wasn’t going to die and allow his son
"What?!”The wind stopped blowing in their direction as the atmosphere around them became dead silent for a moment.With a confused look on his face, Richard slowly walked up to where Christopher stood “Christopher, do you realise what you’re saying?!”“Yes Richard, weren’t you informed earlier on about the anticipated arrival of your boss this morning?”“No way…….”“The Heir of The Chin Chain Consortium……..Is really you?!”“Correct!”Richard’s mind travelled back to the time when Christopher ’s name was announced on the night of that business meeting party as the new Heir to the one and only Chin Chain Consortium.The biggest and the best within and beyond the fore walls of Midland City.Was it actually true?“But…..But I thought it was all a lie…….”“A well scripted scheme……”“How did all this happen?…..When?”Upon the shocking realisation he had just met, Richard became even more and more confused by the minute.All of this seemed so unbelievable to him but the truth was in plain s
CHAPTER 103Please take down his details and show him his way around his duties”“Yes Mr. Christopher”And just like that, Richard got a new job.Christopher walked out of the office and proceeded to make his way out of the building, his work for the day was finally over.“So Mr. Richard, I’ll need you to fill in these…... .Please hold on” Richard abruptly interrupted the man in the office as he hurriedly made his way out of the place.Just as Christopher was about to use the main exit, he heard someone calling out to him.“Christopher! Christopher!”Christopher could instantly tell that the voice belonged to none other than Richard especially since he was the only person who referred to him as Christopher.Nobody else in the office would dare to.“Yes Richard, is there a problem?”“Thank you…….I just wanted to thank you”“I feel so terrible, over the past few years, I’ve been nothing but cruel to”Richard was close to tears as he expressed his gratitude towards Christopher “How do I
Christopher continued to narrate to Mia how he first met Richard in the restaurant and coincidentally met him again at his company. “He was even more surprised than I was, can you imagine the shock we had on our faces” “Woah…….I never really imagined that things woulds go that far Christopher” “Me neither, I feel so terrible for what I did” “At least you owned up to your actions by doing the right thing……..That’s all that really matters now” “You cannot continue to dwell in your past regrets” Mia always had a way of making Christopher feel less guilty for his actions whenever he did something without a justification. “To be very honest, I should’ve never even done what I in the first place” “I was so blinded by my thirst for revenge that I couldn’t even point out the difference between what exactly was right and what was wrong” “Chrissy…….Don’t say that” “It wasn’t actually your fault……..His actions compelled you to take whatever step you did” “Basically, Richard was the roo
Dave walked straight right up into the hall. He had been informed by his father that there was going to be a dinner prepared for the heir. He wasn't around after all and who else could the heir be apart from him? He was just going to go there and take over what was rightfully his. Meanwhile, after Christopher heard these words, his hands were forged into a ball. He stood up from the point that he was standing, getting Raymond even more confused than he was already. "Where are you going, young master?" Raymond could not help but inquire since he was extremely confused but Christopher did not give any response. Rather he went ahead to ask the question that had been longing in his mind all this while. "If he isn't here to say Hello, then what is his motive?" He inquired. "Before your grandfather regretted his decision, Dave's father has always been the one overseeing the company. But that was until a year ago. He was caught in some financial crime. Enough to have built his own compa
The two guards drew closer towards Christopher but to the surprise of everyone, he didn't shake, even for a single moment."We are going to spare you. If you go back to our young master and apologize." They said,"Yeah. He should do that and save his life as soon as he can." The cleaner said, already shivering on his behalf."You don't have to say that Sia. I am sure that he is going to take the opportunity with open arms." The older one said."But what is he still waiting for? Should he be doing so already?" Another one of them said.But instead, Christopher decided to go contrary to their words and he crossed his hands over his chest and said."So what? Your master is rich so should I be shivering? Shaky like a baby? Oh my! I am so scared.You know how that is going to happen, hit your head hard on the wall and go to bed. Maybe the pain is going to be potent enough to make you come back to your senses." He replied.Rumbles of shock ran through the spine of everyone that was gathered
Mia couldn’t believe that she had fallen into her own trap this time and now, her own words have been twisted against her.She immediately changed the subject of their discussion and diverted it towards the pending issue at hand, Samuel and Elizabeth.“Let’s not get carried away by such mere distractions now” Mia said as she pulled out her phone from a small purse beside her.Raising a brow, she slightly waved it in the air “Shall we?”Nodding his head Christopher occupied a sitting position on the other end of the bench before Mia handed his phone over to him.Mia requested for Samuel’s contact which he immediately sent to her.“Should I also send Elizabeth’s, we might be needing it too”“Don’t bother, I already have it”Christopher stared at Mia with a questioning look on his face as he had both his brows raised.Noticing this, Mia became curious, wondering what she might have possibly said or done to warrant such a look.“What?” Looking away from her phone’s screen, she questioned
