Lucian created a portal to appear from the air with the castle on the other side of the portal. Robert watched the movement of his hands and the signs that he weaved with his hand.It looked so simple, Robert turned to the other direction and did the same movements of his hands and signs that he weaved with so much confidence and conviction that it is going to work but nothing appeared. Lucian tried to stifle a laughter but he failed miserably at it so he clamped his hand over his mouth, muffling his laughter, tears at the edge of his eyes. Robert feigned a frown on his face and walked inside the portal. “Tch. You can’t expect me to get it all of a sudden also ““I never expected you to get it all of a sudden also but the air of confidence you had around you when you wanted to do it made me think you can actually do it in one go also” he said with a light chuckle and proceeded inside the portal also.“Also?” Robert asked, “You mean someone have actually done this thing in one go aft
Lucy sat on the couch with her legs joint together bent to the right while her arms was placed on the arm of the couch stared at Antonio in disbelieve who was sitting opposite her with his head bent low and his hands intertwined together with a blank expression on his face. He just finished telling her what had happened back at Robert Kade’s office at the Penfolds Industries, he wasn’t expecting her to believe him in the first place. There is no way a sane person would even believe him, he had thought it was a dream also but after pinching himself in the car severally and feeling the pain, he knew that he wasn’t dreaming at all. “You really mean what you just said now” Lucy said, there was a sly look on her face like she was cooking up a plan in her head. “Why the fuck will I be lying about this?” he asked her with a slight furrow brow, he wasn’t expecting her to believe him but he needed her to believe him. He felt like he was going to lose his mind if she didn’t believe him. “I
Robert hurriedly pulled his sweatshirt over his head and enter the bathroom. He locked the door and stretched his both hand forward, he inhaled deeply and exhaled loudly.He closed his eyes shut and repeated the same movement that got him here, this time he had his office bedroom in mind. He entered the portal as quickly as he can and turned back watching the portal close up, he can hear them getting closer to his bedroom now. He sighed tiredly after the portal had close up, walking towards the bed. He slumped on the bed tiredly with his back on th bed and his face towards the ceiling. Who sent them? He asked himself. He scoffed and clenched his teeth tightly, he curled his fist up into fists and furrowed his eyebrows. There was a reason for those people evading his house. I would have thought that he sent them to my house to kill me but after seeing what I can do the past two days, there is no way he will send someone to my house again to kill me… except he have something else
Robert sat on a chair in the ward room in the hospital where Hazel was receiving treatment, a blank expression plastered on his face. He smirked and folded his hands together, throwing his head back, his eyes was reddened with anger and he looked at his palm with a very serious expression on his face with only one thing on his mind. “I need to get stronger than my current state, learn faster” he muttered and curled his fingers into fist and he folded it tighter till his knuckles turned white as he remember the person that put her in the condition that she is currently. His eyes moved to the window where the flowers where kept, a fresh new one was kept there replacing the former ones. He had just brought them there recently. He let out a sigh as his mind went back to what happened the previous day. “Hazel, some people attacked me last night and I barely escaped. I guess they were after my life but it was quite surprising though ‘cause I know it came from Antonio but he is not supp
Lucy didn’t pick out her car, she took a cab to Penfolds Industries and she was putting on a dark shade sunglass on her face and a nose mask also. She didn’t want anyone to find out that she is the one at all. She had the thought that what will all those reporters that are sniffing around for story say, which rumors will be spread around in town next. She sighed and got off the cab, what they say is not any of her business, it’s not like Babylon Industries have any restaurant and she can say she want to try out the classic most talked about restaurant in town, but the problem now is she is seeing someone who she must not be caught talking to in public.She stood in front of the huge restaurant and was about to proceed inside when she was approached by a lady who look like she is in her late twenties. She was clad in a black suit a neatly ironed black pencil skirt. “Good day ma, are you here to see the CEO?” the lady asked in a different accent. Lucy hesitated for a while, how did
Robert stood in front of his office staring outside at the city, with a cigarette at the edge of his mouth, his hand was buried deep in his pocket. There were lines at his forehead like he was thinking deep about something. The office was cold like in the winter, it was due to the air condition, he had increased the temperature, the sun was quite harsh out there. “Been long I smelt the air before the rain last” Robert muttered under his breath as he raised his head to look at the sky. There were a lot of clouds today covering the sun at intervals as they passed by. His mind wandered off to his previous conversation with Lucy, the daughter of the fallen powerhouse as she was popularly known as. The family had done a very deep search and digging to check for who is the next to be the head of the family after Harry and had found out after a thorough search that the real head of the family who was pulling the strings from behind is none other than Antonio Gilgamesh and Lucy had set her
Lucy sat at the back seat with her head resting on the window, with her eyes staring outside at the beautiful fence that was surrounded by beautiful plants, the huge golden gate that stood at the entrance was opened remotely. There were security members standing at each side of the gate, they both bowed their head as the car drove in. The driver drove straight into the garage and parked the car. The mansion was once an ancient building and wasn’t huge like it currently is, it was built in the 1900s. It was taken down a decade ago and the lands and houses around it were bought and brought down. A bigger one was rebuilt there. The driver drove the car straight to the garage. The door was opened by one of the bodyguards that was standing close by. Lucy alighted the car and looked around, there was a lot of cars parked around, including those that didn’t belong to her parents. It was the meeting day of the most important people in the family, they needed to hear the progress report of h
Robert was clad on a black blazers suit, a black pair of trouser and a black inner shirt. He rested his head on the back seat of the car with his arms folded, his eyes closed. He has already drifted off to sleep, the sign of fatigue clearly visible on his face. Liam took a look and let out a soft chuckle, he had never seen Robert so exhausted like he currently is now that he even slept off in the car. Liam rested his head on the window, taking a look at the blur of things as the car they were in sped past. They both occupy the back seat of the Bentley they were in, while they had a car in front of them with a couple of bodyguards and another one behind them occupying a couple of bodyguards also. They were having a conference in another town. They drove into the parking garage of a huge building that had Penfolds Hotel boldly designed in front of the building. “We are here sir” the driver said as he parked the car. “Robert” Liam called and tapped softly to wake Robert up from h
