“I’ll pay five million dollars for Officer Helene’s life and my own.”Shane quickly said.“Five million!? Do you really think that’s enough!?”Then Marshall smiled coolly,“Anyway, I didn’t say Officer Helene’s life was part if the deal.”Then Marshall turned around and looked at Kevin,“Since you are friends with them, I figured you are not too poor yourself. Tell me, how much money would you pay in exchange for your life?”When Kevin heard this, he clenched his fist.He never thought that Marshall would ask him this kind of question.“He is just a freeloader and he doesn’t have any money at all.” Shane said loudly.“And to correct you, I am not friends with him.”He paused for a moment and then made another offer,“If you don’t think five million is enough, I’ll give you another million. Just let me go!”When Officer Helene heard Shane say this, her heart sink.Kevin looked at Marshall and he could tell that the man didn’t care what happened to them.He said to himself,“I don’t thi
“I haven’t eaten anything today”Kevin said awkwardly but he didn’t finish his sentence.“Well, you are a busy man. I’m sure it’s hard to find the time. I’ll tell someone to make something for you right away.”Marshall said agreeably.Kevin nodded indifferently and Marshall left the room.Once Marshall was gone, Kevin took a look at the room.From the layout, he could guess that this was probably his private office.As he scanned the room, Kevin saw a black box.“What’s this?”Kevin slowly walked over to the box and studied it carefully.The door of the room was still closed so he forced the box open.Inside there was a smile vile of powder and book on how to prepare advanced herbal remedies.Kevin picked up the book and flipped through it.Then his caught a recipe for a powerful herbal medicine that looked like the one in the vile.The description of the medicine seemed like some kind of weapon.“What the hell is going on here!?”He thought to himself.Everybody seems to be into herb
Shane’s nose and cheeks were swollen and there was still dry blood around his mouth.He shackled to a pipe in the corner of the cell.Officer Helene ignored Shane’s insults.Instead, she turned her attention to Kevin and said,“If that is the case, you should find a way out of here. Then you can get some help and come back for us.”“Just be a little patient.” Kevin said with a smile.Officer Helene was confused by his attitude.A few seconds later, outside the room, there was a heavy stud.Then there was another one along with the sound of breaking glass.“I drugged their wine.” Kevin said with a smile.“Maybe you are not so useless after all.”Shane said excitedly.“Don’t just stand there. Hurry up and let us out.”Kevin ignored Shane and walked over to Officer Helene who was still tied to a chair.Kevin untied her and helped her to stand up.“I don’t know exactly how long they would be knocked out but we need to leave as soon as possible.”Kevin said as he opened the cell door to le
“Oh that’s nice.” Lily said with a slight smile.Kevin couldn’t help but be drawn to her.Looking at her full luscious lips, he suddenly had a strong desire to bite it hard.But he suppressed the feeling.They hadn’t slept with each other for years and he didn’t want to rush things between them, especially now that things are getting better.She looked indescribably graceful and erotic.He couldn’t stop looking at her.Lily could feel his hot gaze on her body and she couldn’t help but to blush.She was about to say something else when Kevin suddenly captured her lips and kissed her passionately.You could hear her soft moans echo in the study.When Kevin saw that Lily returned the same energy, he plunged in even more and sucked her lips crazily.He could feel his cock was now hard in his boxer shorts; with one hand he took it and pressed it against Lily’s stomach.This made Lily blush hard.Kevin slowly lift her to the sofa in the study.As he continued to kiss her, he slowly undresse
As they were driving out to the mansion, Kevin couldn’t help asking Lily.“Didn’t we just hold a family meeting yesterday?”“After you left with Officer Helene, we were told that Lucas Bernard would be held for an arraignment. So his deal with the family ended up falling through.”Lily explained.Lily had pretty much given up on them after their cold reactions towards what Lucas did to Matilda yesterday.Kevin was sure that nothing was going to come out of this meeting.When they reached the mansion, Kevin walked Lily up to the front door.“Maybe you shouldn’t go in.”“If I don’t go in, they’ll blame you for everything, Lily.”Kevin said as he took Lily’s hands and comforted her,“Don’t be afraid. I’m used to being insulted. It doesn’t really matter because I don’t give a damn what they think.”Lily was touched when she heard this.She understood what exactly he meant.Then she remembered how Kevin didn’t hesitate to fight with Bernard yesterday.This gave her a warm feeling inside.A
Lily saw that the situation was only getting worse.She tugged at Kevin’s sleeves and whispered to him,“Please don’t say anything else Kevin, grandma is already angry.”Kevin looked at her lovingly and said,“Don’t worry Lily, these people will come crawling back to you.”Kevin said gently to Lily.The Jones who heard this started to whisper to each other,“What did he mean by that? Why would we beg Lily for anything?”Grandma Jones looked Matilda and a part of her heart ached for the young lady.She also looked Kevin and Lily, she realized that they really love each other.Before she could say anything else, the butler came to announce the arrival of someone.“Mrs. Jones, the CEO of KWTD corporation, Mr. Tuner Don is here to see you.”Grandma Jones motioned for her senior advisors to join her and walked quickly to the door to greet Tuner.“I’m sorry to disturb you again.”Tuner said as he walked into the reception room with his assistants.He had a big broad smile on his face.“To w
Kevin thought to himself,“It seems like I have found another person with big pocket.”Then a smile appeared on Kevin’s face.“How about this? If you are really serious, give me a call around this time tomorrow. The price will be same as I sold to Dominic Andrews, five hundred thousand. Can you afford that?”“Five hundred thousand? No problem Mr. Williams, it’s a deal.”Philip replied delightfully.After hanging up the phone, Kevin had some regrets.Philip Archer did not even flinch at the call of five hundred thousand dollars. He should have probably raised the price.Just then, Miss. Johnson came into his office.“Mr. Williams, you have visitors.”She said excitedly.“Visitors? For me?”Kevin was stunned for a moment before he reacted.“Please, send them in!”When the middle-aged couple entered the office, Kevin immediately jumped up from his chair and ran up to them.“Mom! Dad! When did you get to Veridonia?”Kevin was so excited.He gave them a hug and said,“Please, have a sit.”
As Kevin and his parents entered the mansion, the expression of the family members changed instantly.When Uncle Mathew saw him, he immediately dropped his wine glass and walked over with a big smile,“Kevin, I’m so glad you could make it.”Then Mathew looked at Kenneth and Kai.“It’s good to finally see you’ve made it back.”“It’s been a very long time, isn’t it? Mason’s wedding seemed like a good opportunity to reconnect.”Kenneth’s tone was a little sad.Mathew naturally understood why his brother was feeling like this.Just as Kevin was about to say something to lighten up the atmosphere, he heard a sharp voice.“I was wondering who this big shot was. I see that the three of you made it to Mason’s wedding. When are you leaving?”Laura Williams said coldly.“Laura, what did you just say? I personally invited them back to York.”Mathew was very disappointed in his wife.Laura didn’t understand what had happened between her husband and Kevin.When the Williams family was facing finan
