Chapter 176Adrian thought about this wisely and spoke up with his jaw under his arm, "You know the familiar saying, ladies first. Why not go ahead and tell me about yourself, I am just being a gentleman."Her face lit up, "My God, I am falling deeper in love with you." She sat up, "My name is Hailey, the only child of Mr. Wilson and of course Mr. Wilson's only lovely, priceless daughter. I am my father's priceless jewel, he doesn't take a shit when it comes to me.He is highly protective of me, he wants the best for me, anyone who tries to hurt me through any means will surely answer to my father," Adrian swallowed hard looking away. She noticed it and chuckled, "Don't tell me you are scared, well you don't have to be scared, because you don't look like one who's capable of causing any form of harm to me."Adrian nodded his head, "In addition, I am a queen, and anyone who plans on dating me must have that in mind." She muttered and Adrian quickly spoke up, "That's great, but I don'
Chapter 177Mr. Brooks walked towards his favorite table and sat down, thanks to his disguise, they wouldn't be able to recognize him. The only way they might recognize him might be through his voice. But he doesn't plan on speaking to them, and he doesn't foresee any situations that would make them speak to him or vice versa.He made up his mind to eavesdrop on their conversation, no matter how low their tone was, he was determined to hear what they had to say. A female waitress walked towards him, dressed in a white plain shirt and black trousers. "Good afternoon sir, what would you love to have?""Brown coffee with milk," he replied with a smile gazing into her eyes while she smiled back at him, before walking away. Mr. Brooks brought out his phone, pretending to be surfing through the net. He was only taking time to wait for his coffee and trying to get his ears to get acquainted with the different voices.(A few minutes later)The lady returned with a cup of coffee on a tray, sh
Chapter 178(Four Hours Later)Adrian was seated, with his gaze on the city, "You know it's nice having a great view of the city, from a tall building like this," Mr. Brooks asked as he walked into the room.Adrian quickly stood up and turned towards the door where Mr. Brooks was standing, "Come in Mr. Brooks," he replied.Mr. Brooks walked in and they both shook hands, before they sat down, "What would you love to eat?" Adrian asked, staring at Mr. Brooks who had his gaze on his phone."I am fine, I don't consume food or drinks at night except water," he replied. Adrian nodded his head, "Oh, you are on a diet or are you watching your weight?" "Both, " he replied and placed his phone on the cylindrical table before them. Mr. Brooks exhaled, with his gaze on Adrian, "I don't want to waste your time, but what I am about to tell you was what I heard. Nobody told me, I was there and I heard the discussion, well this happened in the afternoon today.""Okay, go on," Adrian said and sat up
Chapter 179(The next day)Liam woke up when a call came into his phone, he answered immediately, "Good morning boss, the bottled water will be coming into the mansion this morning and the poisoned table water will be delivered to your office in the next thirty minutes.""That's a great, good morning, I will send in your balance immediately after I get to the office," Ethan exhaled and hung up. He sat up and exhaled again, "Today's going to be a great day, we might have two to three casualties," he paused, though feeling uncertain that Adrian might somehow escape or cheat death like he did in the past."There's no harm in trying right?" He muttered as he picked up his phone and dialed Mr. Richard's line, he picked up immediately, "The packs of bottled water will be in the mansion soon. I believe before the end of today, we will have both of them dead.""That's great, you are doing a great job, see you in the office" Mr. Richard replied as he got away from his bed."Yeah, see you in
Chapter 180Liam without wasting time landed two punches in the face of Martinez, Martinez staggered backward, he wanted to retaliate but he felt someone hold him from behind, "Don't do it, don't do it.'It was Audrey, he put his hands down, "Come on, you want to fight me right, come on, let's see who's going to be rushed to the hospital when we are done," Liam who was ready to transfer his anger to Martinez and beat him up, just because of what Ethan told him a few minutes ago.Audrey walked towards him, "Big bro, it's enough, it was a mistake. You know it's too early to get into a fight, just let him be and let this slide," she said with a soothing voice, which worked in calming Liam down."Thank your stars and thank her, if not you would have ended up in the ICU this morning," he said and walked into his room. Martinez still had his hands on his face, Audrey turned towards him, "I apologize for what he did, it looks like Ethan annoyed him. Liam only acts irrationally when he's an
Chapter 181Adrian nodded his head, "You don't have to worry about that, I know what to do. But there's another thing, Martinez.""Another thing? What could that be?" Martinez asked.Adrian got up, "I feel Ethan is planning against his brother, I feel it, I just don't know how to explain this."Martinez also got on his feet, "I know that feeling boss, I have experienced it several times in the past. If you feel, then it means the universe wants you to save him." Adrian didn't see such a reply coming from Martinez, "What do you expect me to do?" He asked."What do I want you to do? It's simple, keep an eye on Ethan and also inform Liam about the plan of his twin brother, he might not believe you, I mean it's not just his brother but his twin brother. But that shouldn't stop you from helping out right?"Adrian nodded his head, "Thanks man, I am going to do just like you have said." Martinez smiled, "We are here to help ourselves right?""Yeah, please keep tabs on the new supplier, I n
Chapter 182Mr. Richard walked out of his bedroom, neatly dressed in a black tuxedo suit, a black plain shirt, black shoes, and a Louis Vuitton bag. The tall chubby security man standing beside the door of his room collected the bag from him and tailed Mr. Richard till they got out of the hallway and took the stairs down to the dining room."Good morning Dad," Aaron replied from behind. "Good morning son," he replied not looking back, Aaron was stunned, immediately he knew something was wrong. He quickly climbed down the stairs and walked out of the house, heading straight to the latest edition of the black Rolls-Royce he bought a few weeks back.Before he got to his car, his dad's car was already driving out of the garage, he immediately got into his car and took out his phone from his pocket. He scrolled through his contact list and dialed Adrian's line.It rang for a few minutes before Adrian picked up, "Good morning man," Adrian said."Good morning Adrian, I don't think I shoul
Chapter 183Adrian tried to reach Rosa once more but it wasn't going through, he stopped trying and placed his phone beside him. His mind drifted to what Aaron said earlier, what could Mr. Richard possibly be planning?His driver drove into the car park of the company, immediately one of his security opened the door and he came out of the car. Immediately he got out, he saw Mr. Richard also coming out of his car, while Aaron just drove in with his black Rolls-Royce.He picked up his bag and walked to the elevator, the elevator was about to close when Mr. Richard walked in with two of his bodyguards. It was about closing when Aaron joined them. "Good morning uncle," Adrian said with a smile on his face.Mr. Richard loosen up his serious face and smiled in return, "Good morning Adrian, hope you had a great night's rest or did you spend your night fucking some bitches?"Adrian and Aaron laughed, "No uncle, I don't have time for such. I prefer using my night to work a little and then re
