Chapter 122The maid looked inexplicably at Rue, and forced a smile. “ You should come back tomorrow. It's past nine already, boss would be listening to the news.“Rue pursed his lips into a thin line, and strived to keep his temper under control.“You wasted my time." Rue's erupted in the air.Rue was ignored completely by the maid and the new guest as they walked in and slammed the door loudly against it's hinges.Rue pulled his face into a tight scowl as he walked out of the house which was once under his control.Arriving at the hospital, Rue couldn't help but to pondered on the scenario that transpired earlier at his once estate.A heavy pain struck him in the head as he conjured the events. He couldn't also stop himself from thinking about the new owner of the house.He really needs to tell the owner about his missing money, if they had seen it.There was a CCTV in the house so even if they denied taking it, he would asked them to check the CCTV camera.3 billion dollars that wa
Chapter 123This was the third time he would be detained in a law detention center eversince he was born.Rue scrutinized the one size room with his pairs of eyes, with thoughts flowing in his heart like a stream. He had been locked up here for time he couldn't even predict, anything metal around him was taken off him but he was pretty sure he must have spend more than there hours.Sudden,the buzzing sounds from the cracking of a door bumbled in his ears. He nipped to check on the intruder, while his fingers nibbled against each other.His lips pursed into a thin line as his gaze bored hole in the intruder body.An average gallant man, who stood opposite him in a tailored suit, with a straight face.“Mr. Rue!" The man said in a sharp but deep tone.Rue raised his brow at the man, then dropped it to the table.The man exhaled air as he sat himself in the chair, and nodded his head.“Mr. Hong Rue, age 33, a three time attempted murderer, and two time successful!“ Rue's heart skipped a
Chapter 124“Tomorrow is your first trial, are you still denying me the privilege to be your attorney?“ Attorney Gavin inquired, arching his brows.He stared violently into Rue's eyes.Rue was quiet all the time not uttering a word when attorney Gavin was tired of talking he walks out of the detention center.Meanwhile, Rue was stressing his brain to know who had dare to backstab him along his catpawns. His eyes were sullen, and baggy due to inadequate sleep he have been suffering from for the past few days.His heart skipped a beat each time Hong Fei image appeared in his vision, or attorney Gavin's words resounded in his ear.***“Nathan, please forgive my brother." Hong Fei pleaded in a teary voice, her eyes welling with tears.She had been on her knees for the past few days begging him to please let go of his half brother, but Nathan would not listened.“He's your brother. Thank God you acknowledged him as your brother but do he ever think of you as his sister?“ Nathan demanded in
Chapter 125Nathan heaved a sigh of frustration, while staring at the screen in his front.Eventually, he clicked yes and he was back to square one, would Rue ever get his back? Or even do anything to keeps him sustainable?After pondering for a longer period, Nathan poked at the screen with his thumb.[System processing response…][Request received successfully!] The system displayed then went blank.***It was 8 in the morning during winter when entourage of vehicles arrived at the High Court of Justice of Country X.They alighted from the vehicles, each of them dressed in a camouflage but one man who was dressed in an orange loose shirt, shorts, and hands engulfed with cuffs.He was in between two men and was slowly pushed to walk faster.The man who was dressed in a different cloth among the camouflage men, whose name was Rue, froze when he gets inside the courtroom.Somehow, his confidence and morale dropped at the view of the few people inside the room.A light push to his back
Chapter 126Nathan stood at an extreme watching as Hong Fei was lashing out words at Rue, who stood remorsefully.Nathan's eyes widened when he saw Rue going on his knees. He quickly used his hearing skills to listen to his speech.“Hong Fei! I know I've wrong you that I'm not supposed to ask for your forgiveness. But, I'll only ask you of one thing.“ Rue paused, as tears streamed down his eyes.“I know my sins are to graver to be forgiven, but I' only beeseech that you find a place in your heart to forgive my Aunt, and ensure that her medication fees is being paid regularly.“He pleaded, but Hong Fei didn't utter a word as she walked off to enter the limited maybach that was parked at the extreme of the Court premises.Rue stopped at his pace to look disdainfully at Nathan who seems unperturbed at his existence. Rue spat at Nathan, before he was pushed off to walk.Nathan shoved out his stuck hands from his pocket, striding towards the limited maybach.He got in to meet Hong Fei en
Chapter 127Hong Fei busted into tears, the sounds from her sob filling the air. Nathan had to flunk his hands around her arms, to console her.“It's okay!" Nathan whispered crossly beside her ears.Hong Fei turned to face Nathan, and sniffled in her tears, before parting her lips. “ Rue betrayed me. He hurts my feelings!" She cried bitterly." He could have just poisoned me and let me die other than dragging 6 innocent lives to their early grave.“" You shouldn't blame yourself for their death. It was Rue's fault, and he's paying dearly for his sins. I'm pretty sure he would be living the remaining of his life in guilt and regrets.“ Nathan said, trying to pacify her.Hong Fei creates a faint sob, rolling her eyes at Nathan.“I wish I had known you earlier on! I wish time could be reversed to when I first met with you! I wish I had accepted my father's will to marry you then!“Nathan was quiet, watching Hong Fei as she poured out her heart. When his gaze got locked with Hong Fei, he on
Chapter 128It was morning when Hong Fei stirred up from sleep with a banging pain lodging in her head.A swift gasp escalated from her lips as the pain became intense for her to endure.The scents of hamburger and toasted nuts wafted through her nose, and she Inhaled deeply. She walked, tracing the scents to the kitchen when she met Nathan arranging the burger on the plate.“Good morning." She murmured.Nathan turned to face her, returning the pleasantries. " Hope you had a nice dream?" “Yes!" She chimed, slowly approaching him with wary in her eyes.“Why didn't you wake me up, to prepare breakfast?" Hong Fei inquired with a tinge of displeasure in her tone.“You're my guest! I should treat you better!" He replied, picking the tray from the table and heading out of the kitchen.There was a moment of silence as the two consumed their breakfast.“This," Nathan said pushing a plate of soup over to Hong Fei's side.Hong Fei arched get brow in askance. “It would help cure your hangover
Chapter 129Nathan stood at the windows side of the top floor, his eyes roaming around, but his thoughts hideous.“Isn't the sight beautiful, sir?" “ It must be exciting for you to stay on the top floor.“ A voice sounded from behind." How do you know I'm checking the beauty of the city? And who told you I'm excited about working here? “ Nathan said, turning back to meet a space.'gosh!“ His eyes fluttered shut, as a bright light flashed in his eyes.For the past two weeks, he kept hearing voices, and then imaginary drama. He knew those were a bit of his illusions but he wondered who must have tampering with his reasoning.He opened his eyes, blinking his eyelids to adjust to the light in the room, leaning against the wall.He panted and tried to focus on what he was driving at earlier.“You failed us at Arizona kingdom. You have to come back and save us from the serpent King.“ The voice repeated in his ears. " Hmm,” Nathan grunted, clenching his fist. This was the third time he would
