Chapter 71The voice called out their names with familiarity. Lorraine could recognize the voice from anywhere, as if her guess would be wrong her head snapped towards the direction where the voice had came from. There she was sitting upright from the white colored swivel folding floor chair with a foamy armrest that she relaxed herself on, dressed in a similar robe with theirs and having podiatrists working on her nails and toes. Her gaze collided with hers, meeting the shock expression that hid a face full of aversion underneath. “What are you doing here?” She questioned, unable to hide the hatred in her tone. It’s quite obvious she doesn’t want Lorraine there or wherever else she could be. And the way her face just bloomed with extraordinary beauty that surpass hers just kept the hatred extremely livid. “To make TikTok and have a chat with Jesus as you can see. Isn’t that the reason this place was created in the first place.” Faye gave a sharp response rolling her eyes at her a
Chapter 72 “Lorraine! Lorraine! Lorraine!!” Abigail called repeatedly in an urgent tone, she gaped at the screen in disbelief. Was her eyes seeing different, or something else. She recognized him, she has seen him once. She remembered vividly what he looks like. How they met even. He shared the invitations to the Dragon General’s arrival party to the family, stopping the family from gracing her feet before that could be obtained. Memories of that day stirred up her head, how she had dragged his identity and stained his reputation because that’s the little she can do to get back at him. Her lips parted further in more shock watching fluent words about Avon passed out the ruby eyed lips of the newscaster, he’s not just anybody but the son of the deceased family said to be the richest in the city albeit the family is no more.“Lorraine! Lorraine look at the television.” She said knowing Lorraine won’t answer her if she kept calling her name so instead she said to her what she wanted
Chapter 73 Marina who came in a bit late knew the face of the man shown on the TV. Only four people amidst all of them were thoroughly acquainted with the man they saw the newscaster talk about. Marina; the maid only knew him as his boss. Faye knew him as the husband of her cousin. Abigail knew him as the worthless human being her cousin is getting married to. Only Lorraine was beyond acquainted to him. “Answer me?” Abigail urged with desperation. Lorraine said nothing to her, ignoring her question and keeping her attention focused elsewhere. “And you wonder why I hate you. Just look at you right now, everything about you disgust me gosh. I don’t know if getting married to a rich dead son that’s miraculously alive has gotten into your head, but listen and listen good. You’re nothing, with him or without him, you’re nothing and meaningless to the society. Even if you’re married to him, you’ll still be a shadow and never will be recognized.” She paused momentarily choking out a lau
Chapter 74Lorraine arrived back at the Villa with the sky blossoming in darkness already. She and Faye rushed inside and straight to their rooms to get their. Lorraine opened the door to see Avon coming out of the bathroom dripping wet, a towel wrapped around his waist downwards stopping after his knees. She closed the door trailing her eyes over his shining well toned abs that carved perfectly on his chest to his length that bulged against the towel around him. “You’re back.” Avon said taking notice of her notice, not knowing what his appearance is doing to her.Lorraine gawked at him with admiration, with drool falling over her lips as she devoured his handsome face with her eyes appreciating his features. Avon took steps forward from where he stood attempting to move close to Lorraine before his towel loosed and fell down, exposing his rested cucumber that face down completely. The size taking Lorraine’s breath away from where she stood and became a ghost. Lorraine bit her l
Chapter 75 Avon took his time to look his perfection, claded in a black sequin suit made out of the material Lorraine’s dress was made from.His body rocked against the wear looking fitted upon him. He sat down on the couch, awaiting for Lorraine to finish dressing up and others to be done while his attention focused raptly on his phone. Oblivious to the looks of admiration his well modified appearance has been getting from the female workers and even some males. He styled his hair differently, rinsing it into short lacquer curls that blaze perfectly on his head. Much wasn’t done on his alluring face. Avon’s attractive features detailed on his smooth toned face with a straight lined brows, above his sticky short lashes around his enthralling hazel orbs. Narrowed down to his Roman nose moulded perfectly over his plumped kissable lips that glossed extraordinary whenever his tongue swiped over the bottom or the top bringing out the pinkish heart shaped lips. He ordered the designer
Chapter 76 Alas, the two goddesses were done, descending down the stairs in their glory. The sound of their heels clanking gently against the stairs ground calling for attention. Avon’s attention to his mind where he sat drowned in his thought was severed, raising his head up from the foyer and gazing upon the stairs.Lo and behold, his eyes caught firmly the beautiful lady standing beside another beautiful lady but not to the level of his wife.The both of them holding each other’s hands as they stepped down the series of steps passing from a level to another. Avon stood up from where he’s seated, moving to the foot of the stairs and taking a stand while his eyes feed on an angel. Lorraine stepped with grace, her curves rocked perfectly against the Maxi gown. Radiating more than a stunning look in the formfitting Sequin materialized embellished strapless Maxi dress that claded her body in the right places. Lining from the bottom at the left side was a mesh with shiny beads at
Chapter 77“Lies!” The female had butted in, from afar where she stood and having the three discussing heads snapped to her direction in acknowledgment of her attack.There she was dressed in a Sage colored Marie dress, a night gown made out of a full viscosity, unlined with a pull on string. The shimmery lit sequin fabrics embellished crochet knitted gown and it antique lace in a seductively draped silhouette of the shiny gown that flowed down to her feet with a slit running up from below to her left thigh. Her hand clung softly to the matching colored purse to her dress, her hair was neatly dressed in a spiky bun that has strands left out and some falling down her face. The bruises she received were now masked with the heavy makeup she had on that almost hid her identity. “What do you mean lies?” Avon asked after much silence had set in her appearance. “She’s lying to you. Don’t believe whatever she has said to you. Nobody saved me, not especially Lorraine. She watched as her cou
Chapter 78“Oh really, you think I like you? I actually won’t say anything if it was in the past when I met you, not now that you’re fucking with my sister’s enemy. So the mere thought of me liking your ugly ass is simply disgusting, look I’m puking because I tried thinking.” Faye pushed out her face after uttering her sentence, bulging open her mouth as she began spilling out invisible liquid from her mouth. “You’re just jealous I like Kory and not you.” Finn hissed at her display. “I wouldn’t want a blind senseless nigga liking me also. For all I care, you can both fuck on a pole, I would pass by and take a screenshot, then post it on social media, hashtag- two dogs on a street.” Faye said, reaching forward to her glass filled with champagne and taking an iconic sip. “What is your problem with me?” Finn can’t help but asked, it seems as though she’s really after his life even if the intentions are not obvious.“Should I tell people what you told me?” Lorraine asked back, with a r
Chapter 167 Kory stared with confliction, now that he knows who she is. Was he going to rat her out or is there an agenda to why he kept quiet and gave her a subtle look of knowledge. She approached him with slow cautious steps, “Who are you?” Her head tilted slightly, her eyes squinting obliquely at him. “I’m not the Finn you know, I’m the total opposite.” He responded, bored and typically plained. “Then who are-““It doesn’t matter. What matters is joining hands to achieve our aims. Yours is retrieve the divinity surrounding Avon, while I came to claim his soul. That we should works towards and should matter.” He had cut her off, summing up the base of their plans. “You were going to frame Lorraine for the murder of your body right. I definitely can help with that, I will be the witness and use my abilities to manipulate things into supporting this plan. This would create a rift between them, a dispute you would take advantage of him and approach him to meddle with the conflict
Chapter 165 Avon returned to looking for Charlotte and Kory, hurrying with the search after assuming Charlotte succeeded in throwing Kory out of the house since the shouting died down. He felt a different aura around Finn, but could not afford looking into it as he’s busy with stopping Charlotte. He strolled down the stairs, arriving at the mansion’s frontal exit to see nothing but two of his guards standing there on random lookout. Kory and Charlotte were nowhere to be found. Avon moved closer to the guards, minding to question about Kory. “Have any of you seen Kory or Charlotte?” His voice questioned, immediately gaining their attention. Their head fell low in an instant, “No, General. We took post not too long, we have no idea where they could be.” The one of the left lipped a response. Avon sighed turning around and returning back upstairs. His gut kicked in, telling him something strange is going on. He wasn’t certain, but something just doesn’t feel right. While ascendin
Chapter 164Lorraine stood up from the position she was squatted to. Avon already went after Charlotte like he said. He could hear Kory’s voice shouting meters away and Charlotte trying to shut her up. “You’re not getting away with this, whatever it is that you just did to me. Give me back my body you piece of a useless shit!” She heard Kory’s voice yelling at Charlotte. “Fine bitch.” Charlotte said and that was the end of their shouting. Avon hastened his footsteps rushing to the direction he heard then shouting from only to see they were gone. Still looking around for them his eyes landed on Finn who creeped out from nowhere standing behind him. Avon almost jerked, “Finn.” He called a little weird out by his sudden appearance. “Where were you? How did you? It doesn’t matter, when you did you come back?” Avon took some steps backwards before inquiring. Finn smirked, a dark edgy one that has Avon squinting his gaze at him. “I came in not too long, I was looking for you.” He r
Chapter 164Faye walked in on the strange man rummaging for God knows what in her grandfather’s drawer. “Who are you and what are you looking for?” She asked, announcing her presence with her gaze sizing the man up trying to read his appearance. The man looked up from where he was, becoming aware of Faye’s presence as he brought up his hand that held a gun in it. Corking the object he pointed it straight at her head. “Hands up bitch!” He instructed, his finger tugging close to the trigger. Faye exclaimed with her expression as her lips parted in shock. Molten saliva liquid gulped down her throat as she slowly obliged to the man’s instruction. “You’re not gonna scream and you’re gonna come in further.” He beckoned with the gun, Faye had no choice than to step in further approaching him where he stood. “What is your name beautiful? Perhaps you can lead me to who I’m suppose to kill. I’m here for Charlotte Hales, and Oscar Hales.” Faye kept her ears attentive, arriving at the fron

Chapter 162Avon and Lorraine left the kitchen to go check on Kory to see if she’s packing her things and leaving like they wanted. Arriving at the hallway they met Oscar who had on a forlorn expression and seated on the floor with his back rested on the wall. Lorraine signaled for Avon to go on and check without him while she approached Oscar to ask what was going on with him. His daughter is now fine, she’s very sure of it because it was her husband who healed her and made sure of that. So she wondered in her head on what could have brought him back to expressing quite a wide shade of sadness on his face. Avon didn’t went on like Lorraine had say, instead took a spot and stood there waiting for her.Lorraine got to Oscar as she stooped to his position. “Uncle what’s wrong?” She asked in a tone laced with empathy. Her palm reaching out to soothe his shoulder with some pats. “Nothing is going to happen to Faye again, she’s really fine now. Don’t bother yourself much about her, s
Chapter 161Faye arrived at the Hales’ Villa going straight in search of her uncles. Oblivious to the situation that Royce is admitted and Vance is dead. The house was uncannily empty with counted souls moving around scantily. She went up to Royce’s room, it was empty and he wasn’t inside, the same thing when he arrived at Vance’s room. She wondered where the both went to. Faye came out of Vance’s room going straight to Lennox’s room, he also wasn’t in his room. Seeing no one to question about the solitude of the house, she retreated going back downstairs where she would come across some maids to question about where everyone is. Arriving back downstairs and walking past the lobby that leads to the kitchen, the big door opened with a familiar face coming inside. She was on a wheelchair with a man behind her, the familiar face belonging to Abigail. “Oh hey Faye, what are you doing here?” She asked the moment both gazes landed on each other. It was hazy in Faye’s head, the perple
Continuation from the last episode. “Yeah.” He concurred standing up so both could be on their way to Royce. “But what if he is not the one? What if it is somebody else?” He asked keeping his eyes on his face as both turned around to walk down the passage that leads to their uncle’s room. “Who else could it be? They’ve planned to kill him, and if anything doesn’t lead to his suspicion it was yesterday at the same party when he announced himself as the Dragon General. That speech he gave simply said he is not the one to take things lightly. My father and his uncles came for him so he decide to take them out. That’s just my theory though, we should wait and hear from Uncle Royce what actually happened in that room. I also notice something strange.” Aiden was left curious hearing the last sentence of his words. “What did you notice?” He asked with his brows furrowed. “You know I told the maids not to clean up Dad’s murder scene, it wasn’t to call the cops but it was for me to inspec
Chapter 158Aidan brought down the phone from his ear ending the call with Oscar. He had called to phone him about his father’s death when he made a new discovery. Aidan went back to the room where his brother was, he tapped on his shoulder the moment he got to him calling for his attention. His head was buried in his knees as he sobbed quietly sitting on the chair. Grandfather was laid still on the bed with his eyes concealed under his lashes. “We need to talk.” His said, stretching out a palm for him to grab. “What is it? Look I’m very much okay with myself crying like this, I don’t need your stupid concern or console-““Shut the fuck up and come with me. This is more important than the stupid tears you’re shedding.” Aidan leaned grabbing his wrist anyways and pulling him on to his feet, he dragged the both of them out of the room.He took them to the passage where a bench was available as he sat the both of them down on it.“I really don’t think dad was murdered by an assassin.
