CHAPTER 138Jayden knew Yohan must have known something. He must have seen something or heard something. He took his phone and saw Baron's missed call. " Why is he calling?" He mutters looking at his phone.Jayden had slept for a long time. The pain of losing his grandfather was something he didn't plan now. Medeia walked into the room and saw he was awake. " How are you feeling babe? I am so sorry." she said with a gentle voice and hugged him." I will be fine. We have got to talk, I want you to start a business on your right after I handle everything going on. I think my grandfather was murdered." Jayden said, calling Yohan's line." Really? Are you sure honey? That is a serious allegation you know." Medeia said gently taking a seat on the luxurious bed." The doctor just told me his skull was bashed. Also, Theodore was found dead alongside him. I think Yohan suspects something. I have tried calling him but he is not picking up." He said, looking at his phone ringing." Why don't yo
CHAPTER 139Desmond has a troubled mind. He tried taking his mind off what happened but each time he closed his eyes, he would recollect what had happened. There was a day he was asleep when Bella walked into his room. " Dad! Dad!! Wake up!" she shouted." Ah! Argh!!!" he yelled back, making Bella scream " Are you alright Dad? You have been acting weird for the past week now," she said, trying to let Desmond know she had been observing him." I am fine. Just a bad dream." He replied.Desmond looked at himself and the bedsheet he lay on. It was soaked with his sweat. He looked at Bella who was shocked to see such an amount of body sweat. " Are you sure you are alright Dad? You are making me scared. Are you sick? Or are you dying?" She asked with a frightened face." For the love of Christ, Bella. Jeez! I just said I was fine. Where is your mother?" He asked, trying to divert her attention." She is downstairs. You want me to call her for you?" she asked." No. Don't bother. I will go
CHAPTER 140Desmond looked around him and could barely see where he was except for the voice of Helena that he was listening to. " Can you at least show your face?" Helena turned on the light and before him was Yohan. Tied to the chair. " What are you doing? Have you gone nut?" Desmond shouted in fear." It looks like you are not seeing the greater picture here. He knows all about your little dirty deals and it is only a matter of time before he starts talking. What do you think will happen to you when he talks?" Helena asked with her hand akimbo. " I am giving you a choice right here, right now." she added, walking closer to him." And what is that?" Desmond asked. "Wait! How the hell did you have him captured and do you even think he knows anything?" Desmond added, looking at Helena circling him." Are you going to do things my way or we can just end everything right here? Imagine what we could accomplish together. With me beside you, we could move Gracehill's cooperation to a grea
CHAPTER 141Helena was beginning to show her true colors. She no longer listens to Robert and would do things however she pleased. " Do you even miss him?" He asked looking at her across the dining hall."Who?" Helena replied."Did you just ask me that question? I am talking about your uncle." Robert folded the magazine and looked at her." Any progress with the ongoing investigation?" He added." What investigation?" Helena squeezed her face looking at him." Wasn't Sir Benjamin killed?" He pressed further " And who told you he was killed?" Helena stood up and walked towards him.Robert felt something wasn't right. He looked at Helena as she walked closer to him. " Did you hear of anything?" She asked trying to know why Robert was popping up questions about the death of her uncle." Nothing. I was just showing a bit of concern. He loved you a lot you know." He said, trying to let the sleeping dog lie.Rbert's phone rang " Ah, it is Jayden. Hello." " Hello Robert, is my Aunt over th
CHAPTER 142" I am not sure Sir. I don't know about any of that." He replied." Do you know Yohan is missing?" Jayden asked again.He looked at Richardson and he felt uncomfortable. " Are you alright?" Jayden asked, looking at him. He was hiding something. He stood up and placed some money on the table. "Take your champagne, Sir. I would like to have the will by the end of the day." He said and walked away.Richardson took out his phone and called Helena." He is suspicious of me. What did you do? You had Yohan kidnapped and you didn't deem it fit to tell me" He said with anger." You need to calm down alright and do as you are told. You will have your money as we discuss but I need the original copy of the will." Helena said." I don't know what to do. Jayden just asked for the hard copy of the will. Which Yohna is having to himself. I don't even know where it is kept." He replied. "Why are you just telling me about this? Jeez! " She cut off the line and called Desmond. "Don't do any
CHAPTER 143Jayden walked in looking tired. " Welcome home honey," Medeia said gently, placing a soothing hand. " Do you have any leads on the whereabouts of Yohan?" She sat down beside him." I am so apologetic towards him. He had remained loyal to my grandfather ever since I left the mansion. It is my duty I find him either dead or alive." Jayden sighed." I understand what you mean babe but I believe Yohan would be fine with time. I can't believe someone would want him dead" Medeia , looked at Jayden.Freya came out of the kitchen with a glass of cold water in a tray and placed it in front of Jayden. " Thank you, Freya." He said with a smile and gulped the water down in a go. He was thirsty.Medeia having gone to the hospital to complain about being dizzy and throwing up, was confirmed pregnant. She looked at Jayden and wondered if it was the right time to tell him.Jayden looked at her and noticed she had something on her mind. " You look bothered. Is there something you want to t
CHAPTER 144Jayden's heart raced with a mix of surprise and frustration. The Moore family, seemingly poised to take advantage of the chaos surrounding his grandfather's death, now claimed a stake in Grace Hill Corporation. This unexpected turn of events triggered a flurry of thoughts in Jayden's mind as he tried to comprehend the implications. He looked at both father and daughter and began to wonder if they had a hand in his Grandfaher's death.Bella, reveling in the moment, continued with her smug expression. "You know, Jayden, it's all about seizing opportunities. I'm sure you understand that better than anyone," she remarked, a sly grin playing on her lips.Jayden clenched his fists, struggling to maintain his composure. "This is highly irregular. My aunt Helena wouldn't have agreed to such a deal without consulting me. Where is she?" he demanded, directing his frustration at the Moore family.Bella's father, Mr. Moore, chimed in with an air of authority. "Your aunt is currently o
CHAPTER 145The corporate boardroom buzzed with tension as Jayden and the loyal employees prepared to confront Desmond's family during the impending board meeting. Little did they know, Helena had a cunning strategy up her sleeve to ensure that Jayden's claim to the leadership of Grace Hill Corporation would face strong opposition. She had rallied around to gain the trust of some of the board directors and was ready to go to any length necessary to make sure she won their trust. As Jayden entered the room, determined and ready to expose the truth, he noticed the unfamiliar faces strategically placed among the board members. Helena, with a smug smile, gestured towards them. "Jayden, meet our new advisors. They bring valuable expertise to ensure the company's success under its new management."Jayden looked at their faces and they were more of Helena's people than Sir Benjamin's. He knew it would be difficult to win his Aunt in that kind of setting. The board members, seemingly swayed
