WARNING!! THIS CHAPTER MIGHT CONTAIN SENSITIVE WORDS THAT MIGHT BE OFFENSIVE TO SOME READERS!!!"Looking for me?" Larry Conrad asked with a mischievous smirk plastered on his lips as he gazed deep into Liana's emerald eyes. "What beautiful eyes you got, Liana Almar."Liana couldn't help but stare at his blue-like eyes, she blinked repeatedly, jolting herself back to her senses as he pushed him away from her reach. "You bastard. What did you do to me last night and what did you steal from me?" "Steal?" Larry let out a low laugh. "Like I said before you seem to pique my interest with your feisty attitude.""Give it back...what you stole from me." She glared at him, anger laced in her voice.Larry brought out a piece of paper from his pocket and showed it to Liana and it happened to be the cheque she was looking for."You thief, you didn't just abuse me but also stole from me. I'll call the cops on you." Liana yelled, attracting the attention of the people at the bar who seemed interest
Christopher was sitting in the sitting room, his eyes glued to the big screen in front of him as he watched the hot news on the TV. He seemed interested in the upcoming hit news that'll be showcased in the next twenty minutes as he had his legs crossed, eating the cookies that were served to him by the servants which he claimed he'd help him relax his mind during leisure. He didn't want to think or get himself bothered by his mother's past so as not to make his intentions known to his grandfather and the people around him. That'll help him achieve his goals.While thinking about the success of making his mother's soul rest in perfect peace, a warm smile was plastered on his lips as he crossed his legs, took a piece of cookie from the plate took a bite out of it, his gaze still on the big screen but his mind dwelling on his success. The countdown for the hot news began and he waited patiently to know what the latest news was about after the countdown an ad followed by Chris's annoyanc
The hot news circulated netizens as the infamous Christopher Valgar became famous even without any physical appearance as his photos were not seen by any but only his name was heard. Liana was seated in her dining room, going through the news headlines on the internet as she immediately lost her appetite. "Chris is becoming the next CEO and heir to that fortune. Just how fortunate can Chris be and the vast wealth his into while I'm here broke and wretched." Liana cried. She pushed the plate of rice away and her maid stood beside her and watched all the drama she displayed without seeing anything or moving an inch. Liana continued scrolling through the pages that took Christopher's news and saw her husband's public appearance in some. "Wait, is this the reason why he hasn't been home up till now?" She gritted her teeth. "He's trying to get on Christopher's good side while I'm still left in the dark, unfavorable," Liana muttered, her words loud enough for her maid to know about her cu
Chairman Conrad brought Christopher Valgar to his study room alongside Coldie whom he addressed as Cosmos throughout the entire time inside the study as Chairman Conrad addressed the issue of Christopher being the upcoming CEO.The chairman settled in his seat as Coldie stood firmly beside him while Chris settled on the seat opposite him."Should we discuss it over a cup of coffee or do you want us to be brief about it?" Chairman Conrad asked as he gazed into Chris's eyes."The discussion is going to be long, I guess so we should talk over a cup of coffee," Christopher suggested as he let out a warm smile."Very well then." Chairman Conrad said, instructing Coldie to get them a cup of coffee which he carried out immediately. "Bring me the files." He instructed.Coldie walked up to the chairman's shelves and searched for the files that he needed, it took a while before he found them since the chairman hid them away in a corner."I should have told you I hid it earlier on." Chairman Con
"Thank you for coming, doctor." Chairman Conrad smiled at the doctor who dropped some health advice to him before leaving. The old man rested his back in his swivel chair as he kept sighing and murmuring to himself making Coldie curious to know what was going through his head. "Cosmos, do you think I was being too hard on him?""I don't think so, sir. He should know the truth from you than hearing it from someone else." Coldie said firmly, a pang of guilt struck him, and he felt like he was betraying the chairman by lying bluntly to him.Chairman Conrad heaved a sigh of exhaustion, rubbing his temple as he turned around to face Coldie who avoided looking into the chairman's eyes. "Tell me, Cosmos, doesn't that bracelet look familiar to you?"The Bracelet.Thinking about it, Cosmos had reminisced of what happened twenty-eight years ago when the youngest Conrad mistress got slapped in front of everyone while she was trying to save her lover from getting hurt by her father. His eyes met
Immediately Coldie left alongside the woman who he claimed to be the Chairman's seventh wife, Chris couldn't get his act together at that moment. He hurried down to his room and started throwing his pillows to the ceiling."I can't believe that hot Chinese woman is going to be my step-grandmother. What if? Just what if?" Chris groaned in frustration as he face-palmed himself. Disappointment washed over him as he thought Coldie was going to introduce her to him as his soon-to-be wife since he needed a wife beside him while he was the CEO or doesn't that happen in reality? He thought hard to himself until he gave up on having a nap, to relax his brain and pass on from the stress.However, the woman was having a nice time hanging around with Coldie as he toured her around the necessary places in the mansion and the garden was the last place they visited."The garden looks lonely and the flowers are sad." Yue Wang said with her eyes examining the lively but lonely garden.Coldie heaved a
Chris couldn't believe his ears when he heard his step-grandmother's room was opposite his. Why wasn't she staying with his grandfather? What does that old man have up his sleeves? Was he trying to set him up? A whirlwind of questions went through his head as he couldn't comprehend the gravity of the situation but he had to keep it low to avoid any suspicions from his grandfather. It'll be bad if his grandfather knows he has eyes for his wife. He might lose the company he just claimed at that moment so he had to keep it low and act like he wasn't interested in her even though he was.He exchanged glances between her and the door behind her, still not believing the fact that they'd be the only ones staying on the third floor when it used to be just him. He'd wake up every day to catch a glimpse of her face when she was supposed to be with her grandfather. This was a total set up and he hated it."I'd help you with it, ma'am." He said as he walked up to the room opposite his held onto t
The next day, Liana woke up only to become a shadow of herself. She sat up tiredly, her eyes meeting with her alarm which she had set to wake her up early but to her surprise, she had slept past the time."It's noon already?" She exclaimed, dashing out of the bed as he headed towards the washroom only to find Richard coming out of the bathroom half naked. Liana was stunned to see the manly physique of her husband, the way water dropped from his hair and his hard chest made her drool. Richard noticed her hard gaze on his as he let out a low laugh. "Pttf! You're gonna leave a hole in my chest if you don't stop staring.""Huh?" She blinked twice to jolt herself back to reality. "Oh! When the you come back and where did you sleep last night?""Why do you wanna know about my whereabouts? I slept here." Richard said running his fingers through his silky inky black hair.Liana couldn't focus on what he was saying as she was distracted by his appearance. She had to turn around, clenching her
Yue Wang accepted the gift graciously, thanking Eleanor with a warm hug. "Thank you, Eleanor. It means so much to have you here with us."Eleanor's gaze shifted to Christopher, her expression softening. "You've grown into a remarkable young man, Christopher. I'm proud of the person you've become."Christopher smiled gratefully, touched by Eleanor's words. "Thank you, Eleanor. Your support has meant everything to us."As the evening wore on, Alexander grew tired from the excitement of the day. Christopher and Yue Wang retreated to the nursery with their son, settling him into his crib for a peaceful night's sleep. The nursery was bathed in soft moonlight, casting a serene glow over the room."He had such a wonderful birthday," Yue Wang murmured, brushing a gentle kiss on Alexander's forehead.Christopher nodded, his hand resting on Yue Wang's shoulder.

I wouldn't trade it for anything."As they stood there, savoring the moment, Christopher's phone buzzed in his pocket. He glanced at the screen and saw that it was his brother, Larry."H
