Chapter 56Mael clasped his palm, the sound of his single clap plummeting the silence that swept the room right after Joe’s indirect confession. He had confessed to knowing about Mael’s survivor, and was even informed of his life following the aftermath of the tragic incident. Now he won’t be able to defend himself, there’s nothing he can say to his favor.“Did you just confessed to knowing about my whereabouts?” Mael voiced, his brows drawn close in false disbelief. “You even kept tabs.” Mael added in a chuckle. “Else, how would you know about my greedy good for nothing family? And that is just so right, they’re indeed greedy and good for nothing,” he nodded, in accordance to his words. “I’d work tirelessly to satisfy their never ending demands, yet it wasn’t enough.” Mael sighed, blowing out an heavy breath. “But that’s not the topic, the actual topic is you standing guilty of my accusations. You can’t plead your innocence so instead, focus on telling us why exactly you did all
Chapter 57 Tension raided the atmosphere as Marco stepped into the office sheltering Mr Verlice’s business functions. Gina was right beside him, face bent and all shaky, stoked on whatever Marco was planning to do with his father. “Mr Verlice, good afternoon.” Marco greeted, halting on his steps with his voice beckoning for Mr Verlice’s attention. From behind the desk where the middle aged man sat, his gaze twitched at the familiar heard of the voice, trailing off quickly for affirmation. His brows were quick to slant a line of disbelief, he rose to his feet, lips thinning into a straight tight line. “What are you doing here?” He questioned, his voice ringing out in pure fury. Marco appeared unfazed, looking straight into the man’s glaring eyes as he conjured his response, “To quest for your daughter’s hand in marriage?” He answered, quite calmly as he reached for Gina’s hand, wanting to intertwine their hands. To his surprise, Gina jerked away, pulling her hand far from
Chapter 58“Here’s your coffee Madam Vinci. Press Conference with Almond President is schedule to hold in the next two hours. Your meeting with Billionaire Blake Woods is in preparation and expected to commence minutes after two post meridian…..”Danelle trotted with elegance, attentive to her assistant’s rant about her schedules as they stalked towards her office. “Reschedule everything, I have been invited to Damilton’s Platinum Gala. I will be busy trying to look good. In the meantime, look into Hazel Kings’ offer and see if he’s made the changes requested. Either fifty percent or an out, give me the feedback. Place a call later today, around noon to be precise, put a call through for Cora, I want her taking the kids for a night out without their momma. Is everything understood?” Danelle relayed, questing for affirmation at the end of her articulation. “Yes Ma’am,” the young lady bowed while affirming, pushing open the door to Danelle’s office. Danelle marched straight to her se

Chapter 60Is this a dream, of course it’s a dream, I mean it is impossible that a whole of Tyler Smith the popular musician would right now be in my mom’s parlor. I kept looking at him while pinching myself in private so I can wake up at least from this dream, he said nothing than return back the blank stare. “You need to tell me your name?” I asked, looking and sounding like a total dumbass, I shouldn’t assume the figure in front of me is Tyler Smith, this could be his clone or look alike, this is why I need to know this fake Tyler name.“I won’t be telling you that, anywhere here I can spend the night?” He replied, and before I knew it drool is already coming down my lips, apart from his goddamnly cute face, why did he also have to possess a sweet fall in love with voice. I can’t believe Tyler is in my sitting room. “Tyler Smith?!!” I called in a voice I’m not sure is my own, holding myself back from jumping on him or immediately marrying him; I also don’t wanna wake my parents
Chapter 61Working on the ideas he had to get himself transported to EastHill’s capital, he visited the city’s bank. He was vividly recognized, hence them attending to him quickly. Avon spoke to the bank’s manager privately, having him lend to him some cash to aid his transportation to the capital and come back. Although, Avon’s request came as a shock to the manager. He legit was expecting the known Dragon General to table his notion of investing in his bank, not to lend from it. He heard about how he went into coma, and now he’s awake. What he doesn’t know about, is how everything has been taken away from Avon. He agreed to lend him the money, on the agreement that Avon pays double. Avon agreed, and the money was immediately processed and given to him. Avon was now on his way to the capital, he got himself a phone on his way to the airport. Registered a sim to send and receive calls, then flew to the big capital city.He arrived at the penthouse, still clothed in his casual out
Chapter 62He might be a different man, but he wasn’t lying. He truly almost died for her, and there was nothing he wouldn’t do for her back when they were together. If she had request him to murder the president, he would do so in a heartbeat so long as it pleases her. “Fine. You want to make a murderer to prove my love for you, cool. I will do it, give me the knife?” She stretched out her palm, questing for the weapon. Marco grinned, tickled by the response. It’s nice to see that he wasn’t doting on a soul sucker like he thought he’d been all this while. Perhaps the romance was mutual. He handed her the knife, crossing his arms over his chest with his gaze gesturing for Gina to go do the deed. Gina stared at the knife, heaving a deep sigh before stalking away from Marco in cautious steady steps. She approached Dren on the floor, pure fear marred on his face. Eyes twinkling with anxiousness as he looked into Gina’s face. He tried wriggling out of the men’s hold, but his effort
Chapter 63“Quantum mechanics or commonly known as quantum physics , is a body of work in physics that seems to explain the universe on tiny scales…” I answered, defining the topic to the chubby looking short man while smiling about the question he asked. My smile wasn’t smug or anything, rather due to me finally getting to attend this class I have so long wanted to study. I finally got the chance to learn and study about my best subject, and that’s quantum physics. Today is my first class learning the subject, but have read a lot about it before joining the class that makes the starting topics mere bridges I could leap over. “Nice one Ashley.” The man whose name I’m yet to memorized commended my response attached with a thumb up. “How are you new?” He quizzed, his face marred vaguely with confusion, a new girl like me shouldn’t know much about this subject already. I could even say I know more than much about the subject, it’s my favorite subject, it has to do with the mind and the
