Three days passed and Madison didn't hear from Archer nor did he call. She got upset and tired of waiting for him and decided to go see him.

She was standing with her hands on her hips as she snarled at a confused Lydia,

“Is he in the office?” she asked.

Lydia furrowed her brows, “Yes, but you don't look like you are going in there for a friendly chat,”

“Oh, I am passed the friendly bit. Your boss is an asshole and I am going to rip him a new one,”

Lydia had so many questions but she refused to voice out any of them because Madison looked like she wasn't in the mood.

She gestured to the door and Madison wasted no time before barreling through it.

Archer looked up from his chair, startled at the unexpected entrance. He stood up with a smile to welcome her.

“Madison, you didn't tell me you were…”

Madison slapped him, she stood in front of his desk and glared at him.

“What was that for?” he asked as he cradled his cheek.

“You are an asshole, do you know that?”

Archer narrowed his eyes, “

    Madison shook her head, “No, I am not leaving, not until we talk about this,”Archer his head, “I don't care, we don't have anything to talk about.”“Archer no!”Archer ignored her and started gathering some reports.“I know you can hear me. You are angry, I get it but please just listen to me. I had no idea it wasn't you,”Archer ignored her. Madison gritted her teeth.“Just talk to me, let's work it out. I hate Arthur as much as you do,”Her hands clenched by her side when she realized he was indeed ignoring her. He was dismissing her for no reason.Before she knew it, she marched to his desk and ripped the papers away. Archer turned to her, the anger fiercely burning in his eyes.“You will not ignore me. You can yell or voice out your anger but you will not dismiss me,”“Fine, you want to talk? Let's talk.”Madison nodded but she was surprised when Archer lifted the phone and called Charlene.Charlene answered and he smiled,“Something just came out and I realized I lied to you som

    The day was finally here and everybody had different reactions to it.For Archer, he wanted to get this over with and move on to better things but for Arthur, he was nervous. Every trick he has pulled didn't seem to work out for him, Archer didn't fall for any of them.The stunt he pulled with Madison, he was yet to be confronted about it so he assumed he was safe.Archer alighted from the car and looked at his watch, he was thirty minutes early as he should. He headed to the courthouse with Lydia on his heels.Charlene told him to gain favor from the judge, he had to be early and Archer was willing to do anything to get rid of Arthur in his life.“Are you ready?” Lydia asked him.Archer shrugged, “I don't know how to feel right now but I just want to get this over with,”They entered the courthouse and Archer took a seat in the chairs where Charlene was waiting and Lydia sat behind him on the bench.Charlene smiled, “I see you took my advice,”“You are the lawyer, of course, I have

    Day two of the trial.Archer realized Charlene was had been right. Arthur's lawyer had been firing accusations since Archer took the stand,"Admit it, you hate that he came back. You didn't want him to take your place,""Objection my lord! He is badering my client" Charlene said."Objection overruled," the judge answered.Arthur's lawyer gave Charlene a smirk before he turned back to Archer.Archer smirked, he regarded the lawyer with a cool look, "That is quite an observation, Are you asking me or telling me?""Answer my question,""That wasn't one," Archer argued,The lawyer gritted his teeth, "Fine, did you want your brother in your life?"Archer sighed, "I am not a monster, councillor. Contrary to what your client told you, I was more than happy to see him,""I find that hard to believe. Your true colors showed once he entered the picture,"Archer shook his head but the lawyer wasn't done, "You tried to embarass him and let your so called family lose on him because you wanted him

    Archer smiled smugly at his brother as his lawyer led them outside. Charlene poked Archer who flinched, he met her gaze, "Yeah?""We have to go, we have to do a deposition and settle on the amount," she said,He nodded and followed her outside, the joy inside him was so great that he could lift her up and spin her around."You are amazing, I didn't doubt for a second when they said we would win,"She shrugged, "Good, because I hate to lose,""You must be happy that you won," Arthur interrupted them alongside with his lawyer,Charlene rolled her eyes, "Are you that much of a cliche?""I know you bribed the judge to get him on your side," Arthur accused Charlene."Do you mind repeating that on record?" she asked him and it shut him up. He turned to Archer with a sneer, "I know you didn't win fairly,""Careful, your loser is showing," Archer snickered, "I told you that you winning would be the last thing and it was cemented when i got her as a lawyer,"Charlene beamed from the compliment

    "How did you know?" "A little birdie told me," Archer said with a shrug. "You rather listen to a stranger than me? Archer shook his head, "A stranger didn't take me to court. How do you manage to neglect the part where you betrayed me. Your actions prompted this reaction, so man up and take responsibilty of it instead of whining like a little bitch," "I am not whining like a..." a tortured groan left Arthur but he was still glaring at Archer. "I would advise you and lawyer to give me what I want so I can be a happy man," "Or what?" Archer raised a brow, "I am sure the judge would like to know how you impersonated and sexually assaulted my friend," he cocked his head to the side, "Should I tell my lawyer to refile the case, because this time, I would be taking all your network," "You wouldn't dare," Arthur challenged, "Try me," Archer raised a brow issuing his own challenge. Arthur griited his teeth and stormed out with Archer laughing at the obvious smoke coming out of his ea

    “Really?” Gabriel was wide eyed, unable to believe what he just heard.Archer nodded, “he made it clear that Sky is something that they want and won't be afraid to get it,”“So they want to control you?” Gabriel asked,“Yes, they target big companies by conquering them and making them do their bidding. They use it for money laundering and other illegal activities,”“That's so weird. If they have all of these companies at their beck and call then why would they need Sky?”“Beats me, I spent the rest of the day wondering why it was like that.”Gabriel appeared deep in thoughts, “I will need to call in the big guns to see what I can do,”“Thank you,”“So what happens to your brother?”Archer nodded, “I am going to kill that son of a bitch when next I see him, how dare he bring this down on me?” He seethed.“Don't say things like that in public for your own good. I know you are angry but please refrain from making threats that would make people point their fingers on you if something happ

    Archer froze for a moment, caught off guard by the sudden gesture.But then he quickly recovered, wrapping his arm around her waist and pulling her closer to deepen the kiss.It was a passionate kiss, filled with all the tension that they had been holding back for so long. He could feel her body pressing against his, her hands running through his hair as they kissed.For a moment, they were lost in the moment, caught up in the intense emotion that was passing between them. Archer had never felt this way before, and he knew that he never wanted it to end, it might be the panic attack talking.As they broke the kiss, he looked down at her his eyes filled with an intense emotion that he couldn't quite put into words.She looked back at him, her eyes shining with a mixture of passion and vulnerability. Charlene had no idea what she was doing here, all that she knew was that she wanted this man since he stepped into his office and now that the case was over, they were free to do as they w

    Which he did. She was so close to her orgasm when he withdrew. She whimpered at the loss but he simply turned her around so she was sitting on his face and her face was close to his dick. Charlene licked her lips to feast on his dick, she licked the base of his shaft to the head, and he groaned and her pussy clenched at the sound. She was feeling powerful reducing a grown man to a groaning mess. She took his dick in her mouth caressing it with her tongue, grazing it with her teeth, and taking it deep in her throat. He thrusted his hips into her mouth continuously while she matched his pace. He made her stop saying he didn’t want to cum just yet and with that, he buried his face in her pussy, it felt so good she found herself slowly rocking her hips against his tongue.He tortured her by eating her out slowly whenever she was close, he withdraws. He kept doing that until she was getting so wired that she got tensed, he finally relented giving her what she wanted. It was so intense th

    Archer didn’t think he would ever see someone surprise him but he had to fight right now to pick his jaw off the floor.“Your father?” He mused and turned to Madison, “I thought you didn’t have parents,”“You sound surprised, boy. Looks like you have seen a ghost,” Royal teased him.Madison looked at the both of them suspiciously, “I don’t know him but my mother showed me a picture of him before she left me. I can’t ever forget his face,” her eyes narrowed, “do you know each other?”“Something like that,” Archer said as he rubbed his temple.He didn’t think in his wildest dreams that Royal would look for him too soon much less on his engagement. He gritted his teeth at that.“Perfect, now that you didn’t seek to get my blessings, what are we going to do about that?” Royal asked.Madison’s hand slipped away from Archer’s as she advanced on her father with that fury in her eyes, “blessings?

    It wasn’t surprising to hear the words come out of his mouth. He knew he wanted to marry her a long time ago but now that he said it, he was so sure. The tightening in his chests disappeared and his arch nemesis became the least of his problems as he processed the best way to make Madison agree to marry him. Archer remembered standing up and walking away, leaving Damien sitting there. He remembered entering the car and driving back to his hotel. The rest was so blur and before he knew it, he was back in his house. Under the shower to gather his thoughts, he had Royal after him and now, he wanted to make Madison fully his. Despite their ups and downs, he had never stopped loving her. She was meant for him and he wouldn’t have it any other way.

    Damien hummed in response, “I see. I have heard of him but we haven’t crossed paths,” “Yeah, he is always careful not to be seen all the time. He is like a ghost.” “It looks like your old buddy is looking for you, I don’t know why though.” Kei said. Archer shook his head, “I know why, I stole from him years ago.” “You did what?” Damien almost yelled. Archer shrugged, “it’s not much but to him it’s a sign of disrespect. I had to survive and the best way to do it was with a little help,” “What happened to you?” Kei asked, “I was under the impression that you magically blew into a rich heir overnight,” “I wish that was true,” Archer scoffed, “I did things I wasn’t proud of but I don’t regret anything. I was a child with no parents and no money, I had no problems stealing even if it meant I don’t starve to death.” “We are not judging you, Archer. I didn’t get to where I am right now without a little sin or two. I am just curious as to why you didn’t stay with him,” Damien

    Nine year old Archer walked along the streets, hungry and tired. His eyes were drooping close like he might drop down on the dirty floor. For days, he had walked this alleyway. Searching for something to eat, anything at all. The only money he had was left for emergency in case he fell sick which he wasn’t far from right now. He stopped beside a dumpster and leaned his head against it, just five minutes and he would be alright. His eyes closed but not before he begged for a savior, the saying be careful what you wish for was right in that sense. A boot kicked him after an hour and his eyes flew open, there in front of him were three men with snarls on their faces. It didn’t register at first till Archer sat up quickly, bumping his head against the dumpster and wincing. The men looked at me before they burst into laughter, “look what we found, did a cat get lost?” “No, I just wanted to sleep,” Archer had said. They frowned before one reached out and slapped him, the force o

    Archer and Damien gaped at the Korean heir like he was out of his mind. Kei just continued to sip his tea like he didn’t just drop a bomb on them.“I am sorry, what?” Archer asked just to be sure.“I said, he was acting on my orders. You don’t think there would be an imposter running around without my knowledge, that would be a bad look on me,”“So, you sent him to me?” Archer questioned.Damien was still looking between them, “Kei, what is this?”“I couldn’t help myself. I was curious to know about the friend you sang praises for, and since I had to test him, that’s why I sent him?”Archer chuckled, “this is crazy. This is fucking crazy, I cannot believe you are testing me. What do you have to test me for? If you were tired of hearing about me from Damien , then you should have asked him to stop talking about me.”Kei shook his head, “way before that, I have always heard about you. I knew we would do business together but I needed to be sure that I could trust you and finding a way t

    Settled in a nice hotel, Archer took a shower and tried to relax. The brunch was tomorrow and he needed his wits to get through it.His phone rang and he picked it up, smiling already.“Why the hell have you been ignoring me?” Madison barked.She was pacing in her office and mad out of her mind at the sort of prank her boyfriend was pulling. She was tempted to fly out there and give him a piece of her mind but she had work to do.She had a reason for staying back here like she said.“Madison, I have been on a flight for hours and only just got to the hotel, I am exhausted,”“You are, aren’t you? What made you so tired? The girl giving you a blow job?”“Was it? I don’t remember,”“Archer, that isn’t funny. Please tell me you are joking,”“Come to New York and find out then,” he taunted.Madison chuckled, “all this because I said I wasn’t coming? You are acting like a baby,”“Okay, if you say so. I am sure the hostess that followed me to my room disagrees with me. But sure, anything you

    It didn’t take long for Damien to contact Archer for the brunch. Archer was on his way to New York to meet with them. All his meetings have been canceled and his schedule cleared, he wanted to meet the man before he could begin his investigations. Archer frowned when he noticed new hostesses on his private plane, he didn’t notice that Lydia had hired new people. He made himself comfortable and frowned when one sauntered up to him with a sultry smile, “Can I get you anything, sir?” Archer nodded, “a bottle of water, please.” She nodded and walked away, returning with a bottle of water and ice. She leaned a little too closely to pour it for him. Archer leaned back when the scent of her perfume wafted into his nose. He scrunched his face and waited, “Would that be all?” She asked with that same smile. “Yes,” She walked away. He took out his laptop and started working. He had a conference call scheduled with an investor. Just a minute more to go. The laptop screen came alive an

    Archer made good on his word.The next morning, he went straight to Madison’s company and into Benedict’s office. The man was bent over his desk reading something and mumbling to himself.Archer was glad there was no receptionist to announce his visits so he snuck in to the office and leaned against the wall.He wondered what got the man’s attention that he didn’t notice that someone was with him.“Nice view,” he said.Benedict shot up so fast with wide eyes when he saw Archer standing there, his face shuttered with anger as he glared at his visitor.“What the hell are you doing here and how did you bypass security?” He demanded. Archer rolled his eyes, “you are kidding me, right? You have forgotten who owned the company first, I am no stranger here which is why I know you were not part of the executives I had before,”He walked to the desk and sat down , Benedict slowly lowered himself back to his chair.“What do you want?”“I want to know how well you know your son to think I kille
