Scar hesitated for a second but took in a deep breath and went forward. ..
Few seconds later.
The door was opened, and Lisa rushed in, shutting it back.She exhaled loudly and slumped on the wooden chair in front of her.
" That was so close!" She exclaimed, shaking her head and looking up at Scar, who was frowning at her. " You don't have to worry, I made sure no one was trailing me. I came here all by myself." She said with a large amount of certainty and assured him. Scar grumbled and looked away from her impolitely. " Why are you back early? Where are my men?" He demanded as he walked away to the other side.&nbs
She held her father's hand and pressed it softly, watching him quietly. After a while, she calmed herself and went out of the ward. The moment she got out, her eyes flashed a sinister look, and she took out her phone, opening the video she had recorded. Then, she uploaded it to the internet....After it was uploaded, Catherine smirked and lowered her eyes. She was sure the news would gain so much popularity soon, even than the others. Then, she also took a copy of the news and video and sent it as a private message to Liliana herself. The moment she did this, she walked away from the history with an indifferent expression. **** Unknown basement. Some of Nichola's men were busy dragging scar's men that were taken earlier after the shoot out. Fortunately, they were able to revive one of Scar's men. Nichola was called and he instantly went to the underground basement. When he got there, he met his men surrounding the strange man.There was no expression on h
He called his men back and proceeded to address them. It was at this time, something flashed in the strange man's mind. A look of sinister roamed in his eyes, clenching his jaws and he subtly took out a small pin behind him.......Before he could even think of injuring anyone with the pin that was with him, Nichola turned to him unexpectedly and raised his leg!Gbam!He smacked the strange man's head down to the ground with little efforts!Instantly, blood with some matters sprouted out, staining the ground and decorating the atmosphere with a strong metallic smell! The strange man went silent as a graveyard after groaning and jerking loudly! Nichola sneered at this and dusted the sleeves of his shirt. With an apathetic look, he looked at his men and threw out his order in a cold domineering tone! " Go and raid out Scar wherever he is! In less than 24 hours, I want to see him right front of me, alive!" The men immediately straightened up and nodded obediently, not daring t
Her expression froze swiftly, her eyes dilating rapidly, as if been struck by lightening....Andrea and Sandra saw this, and they quickly raised their brows in confusion, pondering on what was going on. " Liliana, are you okay? Did you see something?" Liliana didn't answer but pursed her lips. She quietly watched the video on her phone and this caught Andrea and Sandra's attention. They moved closer to her and also quietly watched the video. Gasps!Liliana gasped and covered her mouth with her fingers. Naturally, her phone dropped down as she did this and her complexion turned worse instantly. Sandra hissed and smacked her head. " Who sent you this as a message?!" There was no reply from Liliana. Andrea pretended to be shocked and raised her brows, acting worried. " I bet it is from someone close to Nichola. But what are they trying to do?! Hurt you even more?! Aren't they satisfied already?!" Sandra's face was red with anger as she glared at the phone!" I don't
" Liliana?" Nichola whispered and took a step closer to the ward, not knowing if this was real or not. " Liliana, is that you?" Suddenly, the ward door was opened abruptly! Nichola and Oliver instinctively turned to the ward. Gently, Liliana was pushed out of the ward in a wheelchair. Her delicate face appeared pale under the florescent, with her hair hanging below her face, adding a weak look to her already paled face. It was as if she was in great pain, with her body displaying a frail picture. Nichola's eyes fell instantly on Liliana and something immediately pierced his heart! " Li......" Before he could say anything, Liliana raised her head high at him and motioned for him to stop with her hand.." I don't want you to say anything." Sandra who was behind her, quickly supported her daughter and yelled with satisfaction, " Yes! After everything you have done, you still want to say something? What do you want to say? My daughter doesn't want you anymore. You are no
" I know Sandra is up to something and brainwashing Liliana. Something doesn't feel right." He commented and lowered his eyes. " Whatever it is, keep an eye on Sandra. I want to know what she is planning." Oliver nodded obediently and focused more on driving. Once it was midnight, Lisa decided to get up from where she was laying and adjusted herself. " This is the perfect time to leave here and never come back again!" She mused to herself, clenching her fists! Thinking of this, she tiptoed to Scar's room, wanting to check on him. She got there and peeped through the small hole on the door knob. Turns out Scar was fast asleep. This made her heart to soar and she deemed it fit to leave now! Without wasting time, she quietly made her way outside the house, keeping mute. She turned off the lights at the same time so Scar won't be able to detect her leaving. In no time, she was already outside the house, preparing to elope from the leaving and all her plans seemed perfect.
" Who?" Liliana raised her brows and adjusted herself, not comprehending the meaning behind Andrea's words. However, Sandra already understood. " Liliana, just relax. I am sure it's someone you have been eager to talk to. " Sandra assured her and gestured for Andrea to go on.Immediately, Andrea placed Peter on a call and it was answered instantly. " Mum, is she ready to talk to me?" " Of course she is." Andrea responded. But Liliana was still puzzled and frowned." Who is he?" " Your soon to be husband......"Sandra whispered to her and gave her a reassuring nod. " Yes, he is here for you and he is ready to support you anytime." Andrea added. " I am still waiting." Peter reminded them as he maintained a gentle tone and cleared his throat over the phone. Liliana's face turned hot and crimson, blinking her eyes and she coughed slightly. She really wasn't expecting this. What do they mean about her new future husband and who the fuck is Peter? Seeing the expression
At the wee hours of the day, Collins had just got down from his car and decided to make a call to Steven. The call was answered immediately. " Steven, you think you can play smart?"'Steven Grey who was at the other end of the call, was just getting up from bed and yawning lazily when he got the call from Collins. Instantly, he jumped up and rubbed his head. " Play smart? What do you mean Mr. Wightman, I don't understand where you are coming from." He pretended to be innocent and swallowed down, tightly clutching the end of his shirt. " You don't understand where I am coming from?" Collins laughed at the other side and replied. " Wait till I expose your family secret till the whole world and ruin you people, then I guess you can understand where I am coming from." His tone was light but underlining it, was a hint of threat...Steven's eyes contracted when he heard this. Instantly, he muttered a curse beneath his breath and rolled his eyes. " I am trying my best! Just g
She shook her head. “ I am really worried about you and that’s why I am here right now. I don’t understand why you are trying to push me away.” Nichola’s upper lip drew into a scowl and his eyes went cold as ice! “ Get lost!” Mia was almost frightened by Nichola's intense voice, her hairs standing on end and she shrank a bit. She couldn't understand why Nichola was treating her this way.. They had only talked but he didn't even want to see her again. Why? " Nichola......." She whispered, lowering her head. " Get lost!" Nichola pressed, not liking to repeat himself. The instant he told her this, the door was pushed open and a familiar figure stepped in casually with grace. " I hope I am not ruining any moment." She wore a taunting smirk as she teased. Nichola glanced at the familiar figure and suddenly felt more interested. He looked at her keenly but there was no expression on his face. " What is it?" Catherine ignored Nichola's question and took her seat, placi
She wanted to burst into laughter, but she saw that she would only be mocking herself by doing that as the whole situation seemed to be laughing at her now. "Do you mean he is the young master of the Redgraves?" she asked to be sure, and Liliana nodded with a mocking smile. She immediately connected all dots and saw that she should be the one to leave and be punished by Nichola. "Oh my God!" She exclaimed and put her hands over her head. She fell to her knees in remorse when she realized that her poor son-in-law, whom she hated so much, was the perfect husband for her daughter. She wished she had known better and treated him better. "Yes, mum. I hope you are glad now," Liliana said sarcastically, and her mother pleaded for forgiveness from Nichola for her evil deeds to him. "I am so sorry, young master. I did not know. I regret all my actions. I will change, Nichola," she pleaded in tears, but Nichola and Liliana knew bet
Lisa thought she was dreaming as she had been in there for quite a while when she saw Mark. She kept staring at him quizzically with a slight frown on her face when he tapped her harshly, irritated by how she just sat there and stared when they had limited time. He did not want to risk being caught by the heft securities of the corporation. She still kept staring at him till he slapped her to being her back till consciousness and lifted her. "Mark, you came," she muttered weakly with a smile, thankful that she was out of that terrible dungeon. He rushed outside with her in his arm, dodging into pillars at intervals when he caught sight of some security personnel walking in his direction or around. He looked towards the gate and saw that it was empty for a moment and there was no one standing there to hinder him from escaping. He broke into a sprint to the gate, but just as he was about a step out of the gate, a security stood in his way. He frowned and tried to run past him,
Oliver, in the presence of all who were present in the room, took out a compact disk containing a footage, one which would expose every secret and inserted They all watched him with curious eyes and perplexity as he did all he did carefully.The tape began rolling, and Dane's father appeared on the huge monitor screen.*The tape was in a black and white format, signifying that it was a tape that went way back.He wore a malicious expression on his face as he discussed it with another man. He was talking with Collins in hushed tones, which was still audible to all in the room.They were discussing the wealth of the Redgraves."There is so much wealth in the Redgrave lineage. our generation can not suffer when can also tap I to the wealth of the Redgrave"Dane's father's eyes lit with interest and mischief."You are so smart. I had been thinking of that, too. We have to come up with a plan to take over their wealth as soon ad possible, lest they hand it over to someone else in their l
Anna who was at the entrance was already waiting for this time and decided to follow Nichola as he passed by her without even sparing her a glance. However, before she could take a step, a figure blocked her suddenly. " What are you doing ?! Who are you?! Get away from my sight!" Anna yelled arrogantly and hissed at Catherine, who was standing in front of her with her hands clasped together. " Why do you want to follow him? You know the truth so just back out." Catherine told her and snorted with disdain. Anna was infuriated with Catherine's words and glared fiercely at Catherine! " Shut up! You better shut up right now! Look, I don't know who you are, but you can't tell me anything! The fucking nerve of you to stop me and......" Pah! Anna was interrupted instantly as a crisp sound resounded in her ears, her ears buzzing! Five fingerprints immediately appeared on her cheeks! She stared at Catherine incredulously, her jaws slacking...Catherine withdrew her hand and bl
"Stay with me please, Liliana," he pleaded, his hands on her cheeks and tears rolled down her cheeks.She struggled to stay away, but she could not help the feeling of unconsciousness that loomed around her. " Ni-Nichola, you finally .... came..." she choked out and gave in to the welcoming darkness, while Nichola held her body that was already covered in blood. Staring her like this, Nichola didn't know when his eyes went red, bloody, crimson, his hands trembled as his heart squeezed together.....rage and resentment thumped in his heart like a drum beat and he marinated in ire! Liliana was his only weakness and they managed to use his weakness against him! They must face his deadly side whether alive or not breathing! Steven saw what just happened. His eyes widened out of disbelief. Immediately, he sucked his teeth and turned to Scar. " Why did you do that?! You are going to implicate us?! Are you that crazy?! That was not part of the plan!" He shouted annoyingly at Scar
Mia gasped and heaved in intense pain as she was held by Leonardo's men.She felt her impending doom looming over her, and she burst into tears from both the physical pain and the pain that was to come."I am very sorry. I am sorry I hurt and disappointed you. Please let me go. I swear I would never do it again," she pleaded tearfully, groaning in pain as she spoke.He turned to look at her, and the coldness with which he looked at her sent shivers down her spine, and she knew she was really in for it."Please," she begged, but he remained silent as they drove away."I promise I do not have anything to do with Liliana's disappearance. Truly, I sent men after her to hurt her, but luckily, she was rescued. Please release me, Leaonardo," she cried even more loudly, trying to buy some luck and gain sympathy from him.He kissed his teeth with his lips and shot a glare in her direction, silencing her."Save your explanations. You will explain when we get to our destination, "he sa
Andrea knew there was no escape this time. She had been caught, and all her plans had gone down the drains. All her lies stared at her in the face. The audio Dane had made had made had exposed every lie without any chance for her to deny it.She grew red in shame and refused to meet Sandra's eyes. She could not even bear to see the look of disappointment on her best friend's face."I can not believe you, Andrea," Sandra screamed at the top of her voice at her, full of anger and disappointment. "How could you?"Andrea shifted uncomfortably, suddenly finding the marble tiles to be the most interesting thing in the world."You deceived me into thinking that your son was royalty. I can't even believe I fell for that lie. You yourself have no royal blood in you. You wanted my precious daughter to get married to that incomplete, animalistic son of yours, eh?"Sandra could not hold back her tears as she imagined what would have happened if they had gotten married."Thay beast that dies
She looked quite okay to him and he wondered what help she could have called him there for.She smiled charmingly and poured an expensive wine into two wine glasses."We will get to that but first, have a drink", she said, sauntering over to him to hand him a glass of sparkling wine.Nichola looked down at the drink in Anna's hand coldly and refused it instantly. " There is no need. If you don't have anything to say. I will take my leave." He checked the time on his wristwatch and drew his brows together into a frown. Anna's face changed immediately, her lips twisting. " Why are you in a hurry? You just got here. Do you hate me that much you can't stand to see me or be in the same room with me? Don't forget there is still a marriage contract of me to you so I still have the right to call you." Nichola slowly lifted his head and gave her a dirty look. " Did you forgot to mention you also broke the contract cause you said you can't marry someone worthless and useless like me
Oliver and his men talked about getting a submarine. They had reached out to a number of people who could make one available soonest.Oliver came to tell Nichola that they had gotten one already, and Nichola gave a curt nod in approval.As he turned to leave, his phone suddenly rang. It was Anna calling.He pressed his lips together in a thin line and answered the call."Nichola," she called from the phone with a slight slur in her soft voice, almost trying to sound pitable. "Please come over to my place as soon as you can,"Nichola scrunched his brows, pinching the bridge of his nose. As if she could see his face, she quickly added. "I need your assistance with something urgently,"He sighed. He was not in the mood to go back and forth with Anna, so he decided to just go there to see what was up with her and get it done with already."Are you there, Nichola?", she asked"Where are you?""I'm at a hotel. please come quickly", she purred slightly and Nichola grew skeptical for a secon
