Gary's Legendary Return CHAPTER 78
A knock on the door interrupted his thoughts, and he hurriedly made his way to answer it. As he swung the door open, Mr. Taylor entered, his briefcase in hand. "Mr Carter! I knew you will…" Gary's eyes were filled with a mixture of hope and apprehension as he gestured for the lawyer to take a seat."Just have a seat, Mr Taylor." Gary said, turning around arrogantly. After which he also had a seat.Sensing the tension in the room, Gary straightened his posture and mustered up the courage to ask the question burning within him."So what other condition do you have attached to the will?" Gary's voice quivered slightly, betraying his anxiety.Mr. Taylor paused for a moment, meeting Gary's gaze before responding, "Mr Carter, there's nothing more in the will aside from the requirement to get married.""It's the marriage or nothing else."A look of disbelief washed over Gary's face as his shoulders slumped. He ran his fingers through his hair, his mind racing with thoughts of where he woul

Gary stood on the uppermost part of his new apartment, relishing the panoramic view of the city. The cool evening breeze gently caressed his skin, offering a respite from the weight of his thoughts. His hands remained tucked in his pockets, his mind a mix of contemplation and anticipation for the days to come.Lost in his own world, Gary was suddenly jolted back to reality by the sound of his phone chiming. With a quick reflex, he retrieved the device from his pocket, his eyes immediately drawn to the caller ID—Mr. Taylor. Without hesitation, he swiped to answer the call."Hello, Mr. Taylor. Any new developments?" Gary inquired, a tinge of curiosity in his voice.Mr. Taylor's voice emanated from the other end of the line. "Yes, young master, I have an update for you. The wedding has been scheduled to take place in three days."Gary's eyes widened in surprise, his heart skipping a beat. "Three days? Is this some kind of joke?" he blurted out, unable to conceal his astonishment.Mr
Gary's Legendary Return CHAPTER 80
After the exhilarating wedding party, Gary and his new bride, Laura, found themselves in the quiet intimacy of their car on the way home. Gary couldn't help but feel a mixture of surprise and curiosity as he looked at Laura, now his wife. She had been his college crush, and he never expected to see her standing beside him as his bride. Unable to contain his astonishment, he decided to inquire further."Did you know I was going to be the groom before you agreed to this wedding?" Gary asked, his voice filled with a mix of surprise and intrigue.Laura's eyes sparkled with a hint of mischief as she turned towards Gary. "Yes, I knew," she admitted, a playful smile gracing her lips.Gary's eyebrows shot up in surprise. "How? I mean, we haven't seen each other since college, and I never mentioned anything about getting married."Laura's smile softened, and she reached out to gently hold Gary's hand. "I saw a picture of you before the wedding," she explained. "You know after college, my fat

The morning sun cast a soft glow through the curtains as Laura, dressed in her professional attire, stood by the side of the bed where Gary was still lying. She gently shook him awake, a bittersweet smile playing on her lips."Good morning, Gary. I wanted to let you know that I'll be leaving for work now." She said softly in her tiny feminine voice.Immediately, Gary rubbing his eyes and yawning, looking up at Laura, his expression still heavy with sleep."Do you want me to drive you to work? I can rearrange my schedule if you need me to." He responded with a hitch of concern.But Laura was quick to place a hand on his shoulder. "Thank you, babe, but it's not necessary. I know you have other things to take care of today. I'll be fine going by myself. I just needed to inform you so you don't look worried when you don't find me."Gary nodded reluctantly. "Alright, that seems fine, but wouldn't you be castigated at work?""You know! Resuming after your wedding, no honeymoon?" "Umm… that

The evening was close, being a superior at work, Laura has several work loads resting on her shoulders.Her parents were wealthy quite alright, but she never wanted to grow in that manner, she wanted a passion of hers.While finalising her duties for the day, her cell phone chimed. A glance at it, a smile crept across her face as she recognized Gary's name on the screen. It was a pleasant surprise that he had taken the time to check on her."Hey," Laura answered, her voice filled with warmth and anticipation."Hey, beautiful," Gary's voice rang through the phone, and Laura's heart skipped a beat. "I'm coming to pick you up from work. Be ready."Laura opened her mouth to respond, ready to argue that she could make her own way home. However, before she could utter a word, Gary abruptly ended the call. A mix of emotions swirled within her, but deep down, she couldn't deny a flicker of joy at the thought of being picked up by her husband.An hour passed, and Laura's phone buzzed once ag

The luxurious jewellery store gleams with sparkling displays of precious gemstones and exquisite pieces. With anger etched in Gary's face, he yelled out and said. "Mr. Kim, this is ridiculous! I'm telling you, I won't let my wife leave without that necklace!"However, Mr Kim was defiant. He opposed Gary by saying. "From the reports my wife said, which I strongly believe, she liked it first. And it would be nice if I can give her what she really wants after several fruitless searches and she finally found her choice."Gary soon got tired of arguing, he instead took a deep breath, slightly brushing through his hair while he thought of the next thing you do.Immediately, he sighted the store attendants after, gawking at their direction, obviously trying to spy in how things would turn out.However, he signalled to one of them. "Come around, your presence is needed."Immediately, the lady walked elegantly towards them, of course putting on some smiles alongside. "How can I assist you si

Gary sat in his sturdy study, engrossed in the piles of paperwork spread across his desk. The room was his sanctuary, a space where he could process his thoughts and find solace amidst the chaos of his life. The walls were adorned with bookshelves, filled with knowledge and memories that comforted him in times of solitude.He loved going through books during solitude, one which he engrossed himself with.While he checked through the book before him, he suddenly checked his wrist watch and realised he was already running out of time.He had to catch up with Michael, his old friend, and at the same time, he had been in the study since 5am.By that time, it was already 10 am.

The moment he dropped Laura, she turned around to appreciate his kind gesture."Thanks for dropping me off at work today, Gary. You're such a sweetheart.""Well, as I said, it's my duty to. You have a great day at the office.""Thanks again, darling. I'll see soon." She smiled."Yea, I will.

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

CHAPTER 168
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,
