Chapter 130 Natalie's head has been bent over ever since she heard what Juliet had started asking of her. It seemed like she was pondering on whether she would be able to do it. She had no doubt she would be able to convince Zeke to work for the Krafth again. The problem was that she had to let go of any previous relationship they had, and even the one that seemed like it wanted to start budding up. Natalie could not deny it . She was sure Zeke would also be unable to deny it too. There was something between them. This spark. It made it so that even though they had not talked in a very long time, they still both felt connected. Thinking about it now in retrospect, Natalie could not really understand her reason for trying to stay away from Zeke in the past. She remembered it though, she had to stop seeing him in the office because it made people look down on him more at that time. He has just become the head of his department, and there were still talks of ne
Chapter 131 Though Natalie was not sure if Zeke would later get hurt, that was still a question for another time. Even if she did, she realized, as long as it was not life threatening or something that would make him handicapped , to her it seemed quite justifiable. “Young miss, when do we start with the plan?” Natalie asked. “The plan, even though it would seem short, is not going to happen in one day,” Juliet started. " I know this might not be a good idea for you, but I know how professional you are, so this should not be a problem for you Natalie.” "What you have to do is to slowly get him to drop his guard around you. Talk to him more, and when the spark has definitely been fully ignored, just wait for him to ask you out on a date. Once he does that, we are over halfway done with the plan.” “Now, I need you to understand that you are not meant to push him. It must come out of his own will, and I'm sure it will be really soon. So, all you have to do is play al
Chapter 132 Juliet watched Natalie leave her office, and she thought and could picture the completion of her plan. She could not wait for it. Her eyes were not focused and it seemed like she was staring into space. She had her hand on her chin and rested forward on her desk. Thinking of the possibilities that could happen instead of the one she wanted. Juliet was not exactly a religious person. In fact, her family itself was not exactly one. But this time around, she had hoped and prayed in her mind for the completion of the plan according to the way she wanted it. She could not help but remember her brother. He was alone in Edinburgh now. His wife had betrayed him and was now with another man. She wondered how he felt. Though she had sent a woman to him. This woman was his secretary. Not only was she professional, Juliet was also sure her brother was not the type of person who would do something like that. He has been without his family for most of his
Chapter 133 The members of the Krafth family were way more similar than even they themselves knew. Juliet wondered what her brother, Marcus was doing right then. Her father who she had not heard from for a while was also on her mind. Juliet had been quite sad that he was not able to talk to her one last time before he embarked on the journey he was on. However, she mostly understood. It was a groundbreaking and shocking discovery. This was both for her family and earth. It was a good thing that her father had been chosen to go along with the rest of the crew on the journey. Juliet had also realized that it was going to take quite a while before she heard his voice and talked to him next. Space travel, though not something that she was quite familiar with, she was still familiar with the concept of time which flowed before one got to the destination one was going to outer space. If anything, Juliet just hoped it was not something that would take years. In fa
Chapter 134 Dominic was just the scapegoat that they were using to make his factory pay. Oscorp had reasoned that since they could not get the factory, with how promising it was, they would not allow anyone else to get it. So they had asked Dominic and another person who worked for them to set bombs in the factory. These bombs had rocked the factory, and many people had ended up injured. It was just luck that made Marcus’s building safe from the bombs. Marcus himself did not exactly believe it was luck. Something must have happened that did not make his side of the factory be bombed. Marcus's side of the factory was mostly not bombed and quite safe. But his side was just the administrative side of the factory. It was not a place with many workers. This was why the number of workers that were injured due to the bombing was that many. The side of the factory that was bombed was the factory proper. A lot of workers were there since it was their workstations. The p
Chapter 135 When Kevin first saw Marcus, he started seeing things and also getting things which he had only ever seen in his father, Hammond in him also. It was a crazy thing for Kevin. Marcus's father, Hammond Krafth had slowly built his aura over the years. But Marcus was different. He was very young, and Kevin had slowly started feeling like he was in the company of Marcus's father, Hammond. It was almost an enigma to him. Hammond Krafth was already quite old, so it was not unusual due to all his talents that he carried with him such an aura. However, Mrcus was different. He was really young, and he had just gotten to know about his heritage, what his family had. He should not have been like that this early. Basically, Marcus has started getting the aura that his father had, and he was way younger than him Judging from the information he got from his sister a while back, Marcus himself did not know anything about his identity. Since Marcus had gotten to k
Chapter 136 It would have definitely been better for him if he had gone to Godlkin. It was a bigger and higher ranked university. His friends were there too. It would have been a better starting point for his law career too. So, he was really surprised when he found out he would not be attending Godolkin University. It was a big shock to him. But he did not question her even once. He chose to believe that something had made her do this. Instead, he just chose to wait for the day when she would reveal why she had done that. He just hoped he would be able to understand her intention one day. So, when she had told him, after telling him about the job she had for him, that it was because Marcus, the son of Hammond Krafth also attended that university, he was surprised. Kevin was not sure how to feel when he got this news. Though he understood his mother's point of view, what were the chances. He was sent to a school that he did not even have any idea existed before
Chapter 137 Kevin and his friends that came with him to sit beside them had wanted to leave, but they were amused by what was being said, so they had chosen to wait and in the mean time, they listened to what was being said and just kept on laughing as they listened. However, Kevin was more intrigued by the third person in the group. It was funny how in a group of three friends, two were really loud, while one was reasonably quiet. He had sat there, mostly observing what was being said between his two friends, and also laughing along and talking back when it was needed. It was quite funny to Kevin because, even though the young man did not talk a lot, every time he did, his two other friends reduced the noise, and stopped talking and listened carefully to what he said. This only happened when he talked. Whenever one of the two started talking, the other would quickly butt in and it would be a case of who could talk higher and shout better. The young third friend
Chapter 148 Marcus looked at Belle. She was trying to hide her curiosity under her gaze but was it doing that good of a job. Marcus understood that she did not want to ask Kevin present, just in case there was something Marcus did not want him to hear. “It's alright Belle. Kevin is my lawyer and he's going to be the one representing me in my divorce case, that is happening today, and it is where I need to be first.” “How about I drop you off at work and we go on to the court and we would meet you back at the office when we are done?" Marcus asked. Deep down, he knew Belle would not choose to do this, instead she would want to follow him for support or whatever else she deemed appropriate, but she still needed to ask. “Young master, I'd like to go with you to the court, and from there we can go on to the factory when the case is over at the court,” Belle said. Marcus was right. He knew for sure this was what she would say, and he was in no mood to argue with anyon
Chapter 147 Marcus slowly drifted off to sleep, after thinking about the next day for a while. His room had a soundtrack of crashing waves that had been installed since they built the hotel. When Marcus found it some weeks ago, he had started using it, and it worked really well for him. Before, Marcus had found it quite hard to sleep off, but with the soundtrack of crashing waves sounding, he found it easy to sleep, and that was what he had started doing. Marcus slept off before he knew it. The day had not been as long as it normally was, but he needed that extra rest for tomorrow, and he was not feeling too hungry before he slept, so he just chose to go ahead to sleep. The clock in his room’s slow and consistent tick was the only reminder that time was passing really fast. The blinds in Marcus's room were so thick that it blocked off the light even during the day, not to even talk about the night. After a while, Marcus had woken up. He picked up the remote on the
Chapter 146 Marcus had just laid on his bed for a while,and had slowly started to drift off when his phone rang. He rolled his eyes in the dim lights of the room, as he moved and his shadow long and dark moved along with him. It was a mesmerizing sight for anyone who could see it. It was just that no one would have the pleasure of doing that. But that was not what was on Marcus's mind. He rolled over to the end of the bed where he had dropped the phone, picked it up and looked at the name of the person calling his phone. It was Luiz. It seemed like he had completed his task, Marcus thought. He hoped Luiz had not done too much and gotten caught. Because if he had, he would have made Dominic aware of the fact that they already knew he was a spy. The task he had given Luiz was fairly easy. He had been asked to follow Dominic from far off and not make him aware he was being followed. The key thing they needed to know was where he lived and ascertaining the presence of
Chapter 145 Marcus told them that he had a friend that was going to be staying in the hotel too. Kevin peeked from the back of Marcus and greeted the two ladies, to which both of them bowed their heads slightly. Being respectful to Marcus because of his identity also meant that they had to be respectful to his friends. Especially this kind of one that he brought to stay in the hotel with him. Mel and her partner nodded their heads. They knew what to do. So, they prepared a suite just like the one Belle was still staying in. It was the topmost grade of suite in the hotel, and only reserved for the most extremely famous people. Even if you had the money, you would not necessarily be able to get into this kind of suite in the hotel. It also had a limited amount, so it got quickly exhausted. Though Kevin was not really famous, but, since he was recommended by Marcus, the receptionists knew to give him the best type of suite they had. They promised to prepare one for h
Chapter 144 He had never mentioned anything about his father,and his friends did not ask either. Now, Dominic was back inside his house and he could not hear any sound at all. Not from his mother or even from his sister who would reasonably be loud due to the fact that her brother had gotten back from work, even when it was this late. But nothing of the sort seemed to happen. It was just silence throughout. Luiz was however satisfied with himself. His job in following Dominic was to find out where he lived. This was what Marcus had asked him to do. He did not want to be seen as doing too much, in case he got caught. Beaming with satisfaction, and after waiting for over ten minutes, he started walking back to where he had parked his car. Luiiz was walking in places where the light was not too bright. He did not want to take a game of risk regarding people in the community. He did not want them to be suspicious since they had not seen him in their neighborhood well. T
Chapter 143 However, it was just the paranoia. It made his behavioral pattern compulsory.Dominic could not take any chance. He still wanted to see his family. He hoped they would not be killed, and the only way for him to preserve their life was to do what was asked of him and not be caught. Immediately he was caught, he would be useless to the people that were using him and they would not allow his family to leave since they also were of no use to them. Dominic understood this, but this was still not something he could bear. Luiz had started getting quite impatient as Dominic had kept on stopping, and now this was their fifth stop, after going round this same neighborhood for the third time. He wanted to drive away or maybe even drive up to Dominic and ask to go to his house. But this was not the sensible thing to do. It would ruin the plan Marcus had made and would literally just be counterproductive. This was not something Luiz wanted to see happen. So,
Chapter 142 However, even when he was accosted by Burn, Dominic did not want to head in the same route as his boss and the people around him. It would not be a good thing for him, if he was caught that night and they started asking questions that might lead to him confessing. He had tried to time himself exactly well, this was why he had decided to go with Burn, to the place he had always parked before. When Burn asked him the question, he quickly feigned as if he forgot where he now parked and blamed it on forgetfulness. Burn's car was parked at the farthest side of the park, and by the time Dominic had started walking back to the place he parked his car, Burn had started his car and was already driving towards him and then outside. So, he had chosen to go with his friend Burn for now, and when both Marcus and Burn's car had left the park, he would go to get his car. He also looked around and saw two cars drive outside the factory. One of them looked like Espino
Chapter 141 Dominic took in a deep breath and exhaled. It seemed like no one had noticed him. What he did jot know however, was that Belle had noticed him, and not only Belle, in fact Marcus had noticed him. But, Marcus was really smart and sharp. Immediately he noticed it, he was sure of what he had seen, so he quickly took his eyes off him. He did not want to spook him off, so he just looked elsewhere. It was quite lucky that Dominic was more concerned with himself at the point where Marcus was looking at his expressions,so he didn't see Marcus looking at him. In fact, he believed that nobody else saw his reaction. Marcus had come to a conclusion deep down after this issue. He was now fully sure about what the unknown spy had told them. Marcus has been keeping the information the spy gave them at arm length. Even though he wanted to believe it fully, it was not that simple. What if the person was pretending to help them, and instead use this opportunity to infi
Chapter 140 Marcus did not know exactly why, but he felt safe around Kevin. It felt like Kevin was a guy he could confide in, and that was exactly what he did. He told him a lot of things he would not have otherwise told someone he was just meeting. Marcus told him about the bombing that had happened in the factory. He told him about the clues he had found, and about the person that seemed to be helping them from the inside of Oscorp. Though they did not know who exactly the person was, he was helping them regardless, and everything he had clued them on, had happened exactly how he had said it would. Marcus shared a lot of things with Kevin, and they talked till the end of the day. They did not know when time flew away and it was time to go home. It was after this discovery that they both stood up and went out of his office. Of course Belle was ready to leave. She on the other hand had been curious through the day, and had monitored the time through the day, wai
