Gary's Legendary Return CHAPTER 127
Eyeing Gary, Fallon wanted so desperately to read his thoughts because his expression was utterly blank; no emotion was evident on his face. Nervous and uneasy, Fallon reached for the glass of tequila, lifted it to her lips, and drank the entire thing down without hesitation.And as soon as the liquor entered her mouth, she felt hot liquid fill her throat, and she could taste the vodka, and immediately, she started coughing violently, clutching her throat as she felt the burning sensation.Instantly, Gary stood up from his seat and placed his palm on her back to rub it soothingly,” Hey, hey, Fallon, relax. Deep breaths. Take slow, steady breaths.”Once Fallon stopped coughing, her chest heaved with heavy breaths, and her hand clutched onto Gary’s arm to keep her balance.After waiting for her to finally regain control of herself and settle down a bit, Gary mumbled, “You good?”Fallon simply nodded her head in reply while wiping a few stray tears away with the back of her hand.A scoff

Ryan had just returned from a medical meeting at the hospital, he rested his suitcase on the bed, looked back when his room door burst open, and James rushed into the room.“What?” Ryan asked, with a bewildered expression.“I just saw this!” James said, holding up his phone in his hand.Annoyed, Ryan snatched his phone with a blank expression on his face and played the video, his eyes widened slightly.“So when Boss and Fallon went out… Damn!!” Ryan gasped as he listened to Fallon confronting Alice on the video.“Damn indeed…” James agreed with a chuckle.“Does Gary know that someone uploaded what happened at the bar onto the internet?”“Yeah, he should by now.”The room fell silent after James stopped talking, but eventually, Ryan broke the silence as he mumbled, “With the lies that spread and now the video of this Alice person confronting him, he‘s never going to escape the rumours.”There was a long pause, and then James frowned and said, “You think! The fact that he carried her ou

Even though Mrs Gilbert could see the pain in her daughter‘s eyes, she ignored it and informed her with a smile“.“Adding to that, we would have to leave this apartment as soon as possible, so I wouldn't put you at a fixed point anymore.” Sniffing away the tears that were forming in her eyes, a look of shock spread across Fallon‘s face before she cleared her throat and asked, “Mum, but where do we go? With all this happening around us, home isn't quite safe.”Speechless about what to say either, she just shrugged her shoulder and replied, “That I don‘t know,”“You mean I wouldn't be seeing even Gary anymore?!” Fallon blurted out before she could get a grip on her tongue.After a few minutes of silence passed by, Mrs Gilbert patted her hand and said, “Freshen up and come downstairs because we won‘t leave without saying ‘goodbye‘ to them. I have our stuff packed up already.”As they stood on the balcony of the apartment, James eyed Ryan, before focusing on Gary.The silence among them w

At the dining, everyone was talking well except for Gary, who was completely into his meal.How accurate Fallon was with the time that had passed made Gary‘s eyes drift towards her, knowing that since the day they wanted to leave, he had been keeping his distance from her and trying his hardest to keep himself occupied. They had been staying away from each other and even though it felt strange Gary didn‘t want to admit it; he missed spending time together with her, and he hated seeing the disappointment in her eyes when their gazes locked.Brushing his thumb against his bottom lip, Gary drifted into his thoughts with his focus solely on her and his mind blank.As Fallon’s gaze darted away from James, it rested on his steady eyes and the way they stared deep inside hers. Uneasy, she pushed her plate, woke from her seat, and said, “I‘m full.”Worried, Mrs Gilbert looked at the still fill plate and then at her daughter, feeling a pang of guilt and heartache since she has watched the two

"Oh goodness!” Mrs Gilbert cried in horror as the guy rushed toward Gary with the blade aimed right for his neck and a wicked smile plastered across his face.Not even putting much thought into it, Gary jumped in the air, swung his right leg, and slammed his foot into the exact spot he hit first on the guy’s chest, sending him flying off the ground and landing hard on the concrete floor in a heap. “He’s not waking up! Gary, he’s not getting up!!” Mrs Gilbert panicked, turning around with a tear in her eye.Silently Gary walked over to the guy, kicked the blade aside, squatted, and placed his fingertip toward his bloodstained nose, feeling the warm air flowing onto his skin and exhaling deeply with relief as he whispered, “He’s still breathing.”Glancing over at Mrs Gilbert, Gary met her eyes and said, “I'll be back, let me get my keys so I can take the dude to the hospital.""No, Gary. Ryan is a doctor, he can help." Gary smiled slightly, placed his hand on her shoulder and said.
Gary's Legendary Return CHAPTER 132
Gary was surprised when he saw the door open and then Jeremy’s words which said he had something quite a surprise for Gary.“What! Did you bring people to fight me? Do you realize this is a hospital?”A dangerous game The entire situation had Gary deep in thought, and yet, alarmed, knowing that these guys were trouble and dangerous, and two against seven in such a situation didn’t seem like a fair fight. “You know I have heard about you everywhere and I thought to ambush you with Jeremy. And now you fell into the trap by hurting him.”“Now I'm happy we met, I can find your ass and beat the hell out of you…” Adrian one of the men said said, looking away from Jeremy and staring at Gary. Even though the tension in the air was so murderous, Gary’s eyes remained calm and his expression stayed neutral, looking straight into Adrian‘s eyes. “And then you do this shit… hospitalized my brother by beating the hell outta his sorry ass and trying to kill him…” Adrian said in a dead tone as he t

The living room of the Larsons' mansion was quiet, until Raphael walked into the doorway, and saw his grandmother, reading a newspaper. Shutting it, Alora watched the look of disappointment on his face and then asked, “ Why do you look so dejected?”Sluggishly, Raphael shrugged and sat down on the couch opposite his mother, before speaking again, “Gary got nothing to lose!”Those words made Alora raise her eyebrows in shock, and she put down her paper to give her son an incredulous look.“After waiting one week and expecting an answer, is that all Dillon has to report?! What kind of nonsense background investigation is that!” Alora questioned, looking at her son with disdain.“Well, he did his job, but no one in the country and in South Hill seems to truly know who Gary is… except if it's related to Sandra or rumours about him and Fallon. He has no work history, no family or friends… and he doesn’t seem to even go to school or college…” Raphael said, trying to figure out how else to ex
Gary's Legendary Return CHAPTER 134
Worriedly, Gary paced slowly around the room with his phone pressed against his ear as he said, “Yeah, morning.” Gary sat at the edge of the bed when he heard Tom say.“Boss, I have a report,” “I am all ears,” Gary answered, with a straight face. “This week, Bryan Check met up with Mr. Brook, President of the Calvary company, Mrs. Alexis , CEO of CA Energy and Mr. Dan Vaughn , chairman of Sumal Industries. We investigated these three for suspicious activity in their businesses, but they are clean…” Tom said, with affirmation. Allowing those words to sink in his thoughts, Gary began pacing again as he muttered under his breath, “Clean?”Feeling uneasy by his boss‘s tone and question, Tom paused, before he resumed and said. “We have been following Bryan for three weeks, boss, and most of the business-wise interaction he has had has been with honest businessmen. Nothing that would raise red flags or warrant attention…” “Though his social life is a mess… the man lives lavishly, with c

CHAPTER 174
The door to the lobby finally opened, and Mr. Bamford walked in with twelve police officers following closely behind him.Silence completely took over the lobby of the building and only the sound of their boots could be heard hitting the tiles as they walked over to where Gary was.The tears in Fallon’s eyes immediately stopped, and a sense of confusion flooded every part of her mind as her eyes followed the officers until they stood in front of her husband and the other five officers."Chief! What are you doing here?” One of the five officers asked with worry evident in his voice. The other four looked just as confused as him, and fear started creeping its way on their faces after the chief didn’t reply immediately.Meeting Gary’s eyes and his bloodstained nose, Mr. Bamford frowned, dragging his gaze down to Gary’s hands locked behind his back, and said, “Uncuff him now!”The firmness in his tone caused Fallon’s eyes to widen with a shocked expression, she opened her mouth, but no wo

The anger that ate at Gary slowly faded, and he looked back to see his wife staring calmly at him, and yet, he couldn‘t stop caring for what she was thinking at that moment about him.Sighing, Gary looked back at Kyle and scoffed, letting go of his collar, causing his back to hit the tile, and a cry escaped his throat.Kyle lay on the floor, holding his chest, crying and moaning, shaking his head as he tried desperately to hold in his sobbing, the room became so quiet that the sound of a pin drop could‘ve been heard.Everyone was shocked by what was happening in the lobby, and Ciara‘s hands were trembling as she tried to remember the police number, her mind a mess.“Ciara! Have you called the police yet?!” Kyle cried in rage as the pain from his face intensified because of the volume of his voice, and he moaned out, “Ciara!”“Yes sir, I‘m sorry sir, um, I need help here...” Ciara stammered with a shaky tone.“What help?”“Umm… What‘s the police number?”“What the hell, Ciara!!”His sw

As the security guards approached Gary and the others, Tom calmly took out a file from his briefcase and looked back at Kyle and the investors.“Well, I am a lawyer with a couple of degrees, including Doctor of Juridical Science degree, and this is a valid will that both Mr. Larsons and the law enforcement officials‘ signatures are on, which proves everything that Fallon has told you guys, that this company is now under her management,” Tom explained calmly, taking out the document and showing it to the investors.“I have worked with Morgan before, and that is definitely his signature on this paper. He‘s a man of honor, and so am I,” Mr. Walker immediately stated, glaring at Kyle.The security reached the scene but immediately stopped out of confusion, seeing that no one was attacking Kyle and just stood there looking at each other.“It could be a fraud! Who knows...” Kyle answered, shrugging nonchalantly.“But we do know. You just blurted out that you thought the will got destroyed a

Gazing intensely into the bathroom mirror, Gary reached for his toothbrush but then paused as a memory of Lawyers Morgans‘ words kept replaying in his head, the looks on his face when he said those words, and the way his body reacted a bit nervously to question about the will.Immediately, he grabbed his phone off the sink and scrolled for Tom‘s number until he got to it, dialing it.After ringing his number, the call got answered and Tom‘s voice popped up through the speaker, “Good morning, Boss...”“I need us to discuss something important later on today," Gary said as he watched the bathroom door reflection in the mirror slowly pushed open, and Fallon popped her head inside. Thankfully, he was tying a towel around his waist.“I'll be on my way then."“Good, we will wait on you guys before we leave, so be here by nine.”Wondering who her he was talking to so seriously at seven in the morning, Fallon reached her hands around his waist and kissed his bare back, resting her head flat a

A look of fear entered Morgan’ eyes, his expression twisting with anxiety, terror, and helplessness as he and Gary continued to stare at each other. “Which will?” Mr. Morgan finally questioned. “The will that Mr. Larson left Fallon,” Gary stated plainly, averting his gaze to stare straight into the old man’s eyes, daring him to try and lie.“Whi-cho-ne…?” Mr. Morgan murmured, barely audible for anyone to hear.Then he saw Gary’s brows furrowing, and he knew that he was getting impatient as his eyes narrowed, and he leaned forward slightly in his chair.“Don’t act like a dummy with me… speak louder.” Gary uttered in a stiff tone.Immediately, Morgan’ face turned pale, his body tensing, and then his eyes widened as he blurted out, “Oooh! Oh!! Do you mean the will Alora gave Fallon the night of Mr. Larson’s death anniversary party?!”“Is there another will for Fallon?” Gary asked as he raised his eyebrows.“No! No… no… I was just scared and my mind took its time to process everything.”

CHAPTER 169
The words that Gary said to Jeremy never left Fallon’s thoughts, even though the morning was now evening, and Gary was sleeping.Adjusting her head on his warm chest, Fallon looked at him, just staring, allowing her thoughts to run wild in her head, as she listened to his heart beating, feeling his chest rise and falling, listening to his breathing.‘What package were you talking about?’ Fallon wondered as she bit her lower lip, thinking furiously.All of a sudden, she heard his phone go off, causing Garyto shift slightly on the bed, hugging onto her waist tightly, and burying his face deeper into her neck “Gary, your phone,” Fallon whispered, feeling reluctant to wake him and yet, also wanting an answer.“Hmm…” He mumbled sleepily, his voice barely audible.“Your phone…,” Fallon repeated, her tone a lot louder than a few minutes ago as she tried again to shake him awake.Finally, Gary opened his eyes, blinking slowly for several seconds. After a few more seconds he seemed to register

Anger immediately started to rise inside of her as Fallon glared at Alora with a look of pure hatred, and without even realising it, she blurted. “Grandpa left that company for me, and you can’t just take what he gave to me away!” A faint chuckle escaped Alora’s throat as she gazed down at her granddaughter, before she replied. “Oh yes, I can… you know, I thought you were getting married to this… this human being because you want to own something in this family and be a part of us…” A pause followed her words as she watched Fallon’s eyes for a sign of fear and submission and when she saw a slight flicker of emotion in her step granddaughter’s eyes, she smiled, knowing that she managed to hit Fallon’s weak spot. “I will not tolerate the disrespect I am seeing from you, Fallon, and since that’s how you want to behave, I am taking this opportunity to let you know you aren’t fit to take over any of the family business. I don’t need an arrogant, selfish, and prideful woman who does not

CHAPTER 167
The dull morning light in her face with her body wrapped into Gary’s arms, Fallon just stared at him, his lashes, the details of his lips, unable to look away. Her hand rested on his cheek, and looked at his shut eyes, stroking his skin lightly as she felt her breathing become slow and steady. “I know it was just nonsense that she said, but I still can’t get her words out of my head…” Fallon whispered, leaning in closer until there were no more inches between them, their breaths mingling together. “What can’t you get out of your head?” Gary asked, his voice low and soothing as his eyelids slowly opened.Not expecting him to even be awake, Fallon froze, trying desperately to think of something, anything because she didn’t want to tell him about the conversation between Sandra and her.“Nothing,” Fallon quickly replied, pulling her face back, feeling a heat rise to her cheeks. “It’s nothing. You should go back to sleep. Yesterday was hectic, and my crying kept you up late.” “Fallon,
