Mr. Victor's cold demeanor sent shivers down Alexander's spine as he stared at the gun pointed at him."What are you doing, are you going to kill me?" Alexander demanded.Mr. Victor scoffed, "Yeah, I can do that, you know what I'm capable of.""Yeah, just do it and let's end it all, but you know, you will become nothing without me," Alexander threatened."Wow, I like your fighting spirit, love it, but that will end up with nothing, and you can even end up dead," Mr. Victor said, still pointing the gun at him."I don't know the reason you are doing this, I don't love your daughter, and I'm not marrying her," Alexander fought back.Mr. Victor's expression hardened. "Wow, Olive, I wonder how she is doing since you left, so I checked on her."Alexander's expression shifted to shock. "What, what are you saying? You checked on her?""Yeah, she is doing great for the moment, but I can't say what will happen after what will happen here," Mr. Victor kept threatening him.Olive was a teen girl
After a peaceful two weeks, while Lydia was recovering from the injury of the incident, she didn't hear at all from Alexander.After she fully recovered, she walked to his company and waited for him, she sat in her car for many hours waiting for him to come out. She waited for the whole day, and it was evening already, as she was about to leave, then Alexander walked outside from the company, she immediately dashed down and rushed towards him before he entered his car."Alexander," she called his name.Alexander was shocked to see her and immediately tried to ignore her as he wanted to enter his car, but Lydia held his hand.He hollered at her, "Are you that stupid? What the hell are you looking for here? Aren't you afraid of being killed?""I just want to see you, and we should plan things out," Lydia muttered.Alexander chuckled, "What, are you really joking right now or you really mean it? What the hell are you saying? You witnessed a near-death experience some weeks ago, and you
Chapter 84. “What's wrong, what happened”, Marcus curiously asked. Kathie bit her lips as she began, “Sir, this letter was sent to you this evening, I don't know where it comes from, but you should certainly see it”. He stood there, wondering as Kathie brought out the letter and gave it to him, he checked it out and read the content. A sentence that immediately broke his heart. “My son, be careful!”. “What…what?, Is this!!”, He stammered, the letter shaking in his hand. “We don't know, we are currently on it”, she said. Marcus crumbled the letters, “this must absolutely be some shit, my father is on the sick bed, I am very sure he isn't the one that sent this, someone is behind this!”. “yeah, actually a dispatch either delivered it, so we are tracing it back on him, we will eventually find some answer in it”, she said. Marcus nodded, then remembered what Lydia told him, he asked her, “what happened to Lydia, and why don't you inform me about it?”. “I'm about to, you are busy,
Sophia was looking at the letter, smiling and very happy. Her face lit up as she faced Marcus. She looked at him in a flirtatious way, "You did this!"Marcus chuckled and sipped his wine, "How? I did nothing.""I am sure the CEO considered because of your skill, the medical skills you show. You were cool then," she stated."Being medically skillful has nothing to do with business. You are just lucky, and you give that impression," Marcus simply stated.Sophia kept looking into Marcus's eyes. The words burned in her stomach. She loved him and wanted to confess, but it was so hard. Just so hard to do it."Marcus..." she called him, then breathed in and exhaled loudly. She had made up her mind to tell him."mm.. what?" Marcus cluelessly hummed."I don't know how to say this, but I think I have to say it after all... Marcus, I l....".She was interrupted by Kathie, who chimed in and stated, "Mr. Marcus?".Marcus turned to her, "mmm?""The assemblyman requires your presence in his house; h
The assembly man's frown deepened at Marcus's request, his brows knitting together. "Do you know these people?" he questioned. "They nearly killed my son. I can't forgive them; they deserve to be punished, even killed. I am considering killing them and feeding their flesh to my dogs."Marcus nodded solemnly, his gaze unwavering as he met the assembly man's eyes. "Yes, they deserve it. That is a heinous crime; your son nearly died. But I know them, they are my friends," he affirmed. "They're not the people you think they are. They're friends of mine, and what happened was just a misunderstanding. They never intended for anyone to get hurt."The assembly man groaned, pointing at Lydia. "But this woman here doesn't feel any remorseful," he said. "She kept telling me that my son deserved it, she kept stepping on my nerves. I can't just let them go; I can't do this for you, please."Marcus smiled and stated, "I know you are just angry, and that you don't mean it. You gave me a whopping $20
Marcus watched with concern as Sophia hurriedly boarded the plane, her sudden departure leaving him perplexed and worried. He couldn't shake off the feeling that something was terribly wrong.Feeling Kathie's gentle tap on his shoulder, Marcus turned to face her, his expression still clouded with concern."Let's go," she said softly, her eyes reflecting her own worry, so down.Nodding silently, Marcus followed Kathie, "Uhm, what a long day!" he said to deliberately spark a conversation.Kathie didn't respond and kept walking. They reached the car parked beside the airport. She opened the car for Marcus.Observing Kathie's demeanor as Marcus entered. Her usually bright eyes seemed dull, and her shoulders slumped, and she looked puffy.Concerned, Marcus gently placed a hand on Kathie's arm and asked in a soft tone, "Is everything alright, Kathie? You seem... different."Kathie forced a weak smile, but it didn't reach her eyes. She hesitated for a moment before responding, her voice bare
Sophia arrived back in the state, she immediately made her way to her house where her father was waiting for her. She knew she was going to face something big.She entered, holding her breath, and there he was, Mr. Victor Newman on the sofa, sipping tea in a mug. And beside him bowed Joel..."Father?... good morning," she politely greeted him and bowed. Mr. Victor didn't act like he was there; he sipped his tea and focused on the news, which the headline stated, "Mr. Thonks, the billionaire, appoints his anonymous son as the CEO."Mr. Victor chuckled, "Anonymous?.. I wonder why he is concealing his identity, to attack me?"Sophia didn't have the idea of what he was saying. Joel smirked at her, and just then Mr. Victor raised his hand and stated, "who is the man you are with?""Man? Oh yes, my bodyguard," she answered, putting on a fake smile. Mr. Victor chuckled and stood up, then walked slowly towards her."That is not what I heard from the board leaders. Who the hell is that fuckin
"What did you just say, irrelevant people?" Ivan angrily said, as he stepped forward, with an angry motion, but Paulina grabbed him. Then stepped forward."She is dying and needs urgent surgery; she could die if care is not taken.""That is none of my business, we are short of surgeons at this moment, and we really need this nurse right now, the congressman sons were involved in an accident, they could die also," the doctor insisted."But we are the first to reach here, you could just have immediately directed them to another hospital," Ivan argued."Don’t you hear what I just said? I said they are the congressman’s sons, I don’t have time exchanging conversation with you, nurse... meet me in the OR," the doctor said and dashed away.Ivan looked at the nurse, who was also reluctant to go, but they had no choice, or else, they will lose the job."I am sorry, I have to go," the elder nurse said, a woman probably in her late 40s."You know she will die," Ivan stated.The woman nodded, "b
