James looked at Dane and lowered his eyes suspiciously. He thought Dane appeared familiar somehow. Once Dane had collected their CV, Zelda gestured for both Clara and James to take their leave. " We will get back to you," she assured them. Afterward, she walked past them including Dane and the rest of the guards. Clara and James stepped aside, watching them till they could no longer be seen. Of course, they both were aware of Zelda's real identity, but this was just the right moment for them. " I feel her assistant is familiar, but I can't seem to recall him." James confessed, knitting his brows, and he stroked his chin as if in thought. " Don't think too much about. Let's just focus on what we should do." Clara slapped his hand with an uninterested face, ignoring his words. " As they say, keep your friends close, but keep your enemy closer." ~~`~~ When Zelda got to the CEO's office, she collapsed on the chair feeling exhausted. She sighed and massaged her temples.
Oliver walked out of his ward, half arm, and approached Nikky's ward. He sucked in a deep breath, as he pushed open the door to his nephew's ward. As he thought, his eyes landed on a familiar figure sitting lonely at a dark corner. Although, the air around Nikky was lonely, but it was unfriendly. Oliver's face was similar to an helpless person, who couldn't help but sigh and shook his head at the sight of his nephew. The situation was still the same. His hatred exploded instantly! There was only one person to be blame for this! It happened at this moment when the doctor stepped into the ward and called the attention of Oliver. " Mr. Harper, even though we have been trying our best all these time, I have to tell you it's about time for you to start settling the hospital fees. It's almost a month now, and the management can't take it anymore." The doctor moved his head downward and demanded seriously. Oliver almost bursted in annoyance and rage, hearing this, and h
Once she was done, she leaned against the wall, breathing heavily...What was wrong with her?~It took Brian a long time before he could react.When he finally did, all his guests were nowhere to be seen. He couldn't believe they were driven away just like that! Not only was he slapped and deeply humiliated, the whole truth was revealed, and his friends would never believe in him again! " That insolent bitch! Wait till I get back at you!" Then, he took out his phone and made a call to Andrea. ~~~~~ Liam and Angelina were already in the control room with Gwin, Speedy, and the dean..They couldn't comprehend Liam's action by bringing his daughter, but none of them has the bold gut to say anything. " Just give me few minutes." Angelina glanced at the computer with a lazy expression and requested. Her hands started tapping smoothly and fastly on the keyboard. Liam waited eagerly..Few minutes later, a ding came from the computer, and Angelina took off her hands from the
The next day In the early hours of the morning , the Rogers took the cops as their early visitors. The cops surrounded their mansion, and the head cop shouted sharply! " Max Roger, no matter your status, and how influential you are, you can't escape the law! So you are under arrest now!" Griffen and Max, including Beverly, who were just waking up in the mansion, were flabbergasted to hear this, their expressions transforming into the one of shock, as they widened their mouths! This can't be! What was going on?! They rushed out to see the cops, thinking they made a mistake.." Officers, I think you are mistaken. How can you come to my territory and dare to say my son is under arrest?! Do you know what you are saying?! We are the Rogers, have you forgotten our status in this country?! Who the hell are you to say such a thing?!" Griffen yelled arrogantly at the cops, glancing at all of them, and his voice was tinged with anger! Just then, two familiar people stepped forward
He realized the two unfamiliar people in front of him were those who met with Zelda yesterday. But why was he feeling a dangerous and threatening air around them? With tightened lips, he strode past them, not sparing them a glance again. Dane quickly ran behind him. Clara and James' face turned rigid and grim, the moment Liam was out of sight! They felt they had just encountered and punched a cotton candy! How could he ignored them like that?! Well, this was just the start! ~~~~~~ Some hours later. Jasper was in his room, flipping the phone in his hands as he deliberated whether to call Ariana or not. His palms were really clammy, a result of his anxiousness, and he scratched his nose. He felt worried and just wanted to check up on her, but he didn't want her to misunderstand his intention, not to talk he was gay. A while later, his heart eventually won over his mind, and he immediately dialed Ariana's line. ~~~~~ New W. S. Ariana had gotten to the mansi
Clara ignored his question, her expression not faltering.." You are Kai, right? I am Clara, and I want to help you. I know you can also help me too, so let's me take this chance. It's going to be a win win situation." Kai's despondent look changed into a mixed one, and he thought of Clara's words. The offer was really tempting, but at the same time, suspicious. It was weird for him to think how a cripple like him could help a complete capable person like Clara. " You can keep your offer and find someone else. I am not interested, and I am useless." In the next moment, he declined and proceeded to walk away..His expression had turned distant. Clara was dumbfounded, not anticipating Kai to reject her kind of special offer. Is he not tempted? " Are you really sure you don't want my offer?" She lifted an eyebrow, while she crossed her arms over her chest. " I mean it's too tempting, and one of a kind opportunity. I really meant it, and I know you have no one now. So, what d
Brian's face dimmed, and he grumbled." Be prepared. We have to meet with our sender soon." ~~~ At mid noon, Zelda got to Angelina's school and went to pick her daughter. It didn't take long for her to come out of the school, carrying Angelina beside her with both of her hands. Out of nowhere, some group of guys walked forward , discussing and arguing together vehemently. " Shut up! You don't know anything! If you don't know what to say, it's best for you to keep shut!" "What if I don't?! You can't tell me what to do! My mouth belongs to me, and I can say whatever I want to say. You shouldn't care. And I meant what I said, Liam Storm is fake! There is no way possible for him to conquer the business world for five good years, and he even became the god of business! Tell me, that doesn't sound like something real."" That's because you are senseless! You can't even think well, nor are you smart or intelligent, so there is no way for you to know and understand Liam Storm i
The next day In the early hours of the day, an overwhelming news was quick to spread across different major media outlets in the country. Max’s video of sneaking into the hospital, tampering with the hospital’s surveillance cameras , and stealing a patient was released and exposed, which swiftly reached the citizens since most were active. Many of the netizens and ordinary citizens were perplexed, feeling wronged and indignant! “ How can this be?! Are they fooling us?! Didn’t Griffen Roger said his son was the secret to his business expansion and success?! If that’s the case, then what is this? This video doesn’t seem to be edited. So, are the Rogers giving us a false pictures of their business?!” “ Exactly what I am thinking! This is despicable and inhumane! How can a prominent figure engaged in something like this!?” “This is disappointing! I hate the Rogers now and never want to see them again!” “ Boohoo! ‘ a crying emoticon ‘ Max just broke my heart! I really wanna c
“Oh my goodness!“ Zelda exclaimed in shock“Didn't I stop you from coming in here?“ He asked. “Why are you here? What do you plan on doing?“ He asked again, but got no response“Liam! What are you doing?“ Zelda asked worriedly, but he ignored her“Answer me you bitch” he yelled“She can't respond if you keep choking her,” Zelda informed. He released her from his grip and stared daggers at herShe understood, but refused to speak“You won't talk? We'll see about that when I fully have your time” Liam said and instructed his men to take her away, which they did“Zelda, are you okay?“ He asked moving towards Zelda, but she stopped him“Don't!“ She said, and he halted“I still don't want to talk to you. Please Leave,” she continued. He nodded and left the roomHe closed the door behind him and sat in front of it, till anytime Zelda was ready to talk to him. ~~~~~~ Since the news about Liam's identity had spread to all parts of the country, strangely, it made black diamond corpora
Once it was evening time. “Goodnight Doc” A nurse whose shift had just ended bade the doctor farewell, but he got no response. Her mind was preoccupied with what she planned on doingAs a doctor, killing a patient on purpose was a very serious offense and she knew what was at risk, but who could say no to that amount of cash that was offered to her? Just thinking about the things she could do with the money made her heart dance“Stop messing around and get the job done, only then can you fantasize for as long as you want” A tiny voice in her head said and she began to move towards the hospital labPeeking in through the door, she discovered that there was no one there. Looks like luck was on her sideQuickly getting the drug she needed, she left and made for Zelda's ward, the drug was meant to stimulate the tumor in Zelda's brain and cause her to die within minutes“Oh God!“ The doctor whispered. Her luck ran out when she found Liam standing in front of Zelda's door. The way he stood
She took in deep exaggerated breath from speaking too fast without pausing, and her jaws set, annoyed, heartbroken and crestfallen! " I want a divorce Liam!" She declared in a solemn tone.Liam scowled and stepped forward." Get back! Don't come close to me!" She warned him in a low voice. " Zelda, you can't do this! I didn't mean to keep the truth about who I am from you! I only wanted to protect you and not let you get involve in all this! Yes, it was all my fault, but I am sorry. I only did it because I love you, and I don't want to lose you! Of course, I am still going let you know some day, but that would be when I am free from all the troubles! I just .......did it for you."He tried to explain himself, despite how he was hurting, but he sincerely hoped for Zelda to believe and forgive him. " No, Liam! You did it for yourself!" Zelda refused to accept his explanation and snorted! " Have you thought about how I was going to feel about this, when you hid it from me? I
Suddenly! She gaped and slumped to the ground unexpectedly, allowing darkness to engulfed her harshly......Seeing this, Angelina panicked and exclaimed! " Mum!" Lin mu wasn't expecting this from Zelda, and her eyes turned frantic, screaming of worry. Immediately, Angelina took the phone from Lin mu and made a call to Liam. " Dad, you have to come now! Mum just fainted." The crowd were stunned and couldn't comprehend what just happened to Zelda. Andrea and Brian were terrified to their wits when they realized the truth! It was too incredulous!Their hearts trembled in shock , and they instantly deemed it fit to call their backer before anything. How could they afford to hurt the most powerful man in the country when he can just crush them with his mere look!They really didn't believe Liam with how gentle and calm he appeared, was actually the formidable Zillionaire! Zelda was taken to the hospital on time by Lin Mu and Angelina tagged along. The moment they left, Andrea and
The news about Liam's identity had already spread like a wild fire across the country. Many citizens astonished to be aware of it, and it strike a great deal in the county..Just within few minutes of it been released from an unknown source, almost all the people in the country and even in the states identified Liam Storm!!It was totally disbelieving! " Ha, I think I woke up on the wrong side today! What am I seeing?" " I can't believe this." " So, that country pumpkin is actually the top one man in the county?" " Can you please tell this is a joke?! So, we have actually been around the most powerful man in the world without us knowing!" " Oh, this is thrilling! I finally know who Liam Storm is! This must spread to the whole world!"It became a hot discussion in the country. ~~~~~~Liam's mansion Zelda and Lin mu were still oblivious of what was going on. Once Lin Mu was about to take her leave, Zelda decided to escort her out. Angelina also trailed after them. I
As Liam was about to take the drink, her heart raced, and her eyes contracted. Unexpectedly, Liam's phone rang.His eyes lowered at the phone and he didn't hesitate to answer it, placing down the cup of medicinal drink, and he stood up from the dinning room..." Excuse me." "Okay honey."'Zelda nodded and gestured for him to leave. A look of disappointment flashed across Andrea and Brian's face, but they were careful enough not to show it. After Liam left, Zelda and Angelina chatted on the dining room without talking to Andrea and Brian.Andrea rolled her eyes inwardly with disdain and turned to Zelda again. " You should take the drink since your useless husband didn't take it." She acted as if she didn't care, but she was secretly praying and hoping for Zelda to take the drink. Zelda lifted her eyes at Andrea and squinted them sharply. " What did I say again? I don't like it!"She hissed and withdrew her gaze in annoyance. Andrea dropped her gaze downward and balled her fi
The doctor's heart arched and decided to take pity on her. " I think I know someone who can heal you." She confessed with a sigh. " But it has to be our top secrets." Beverly glanced at the doctor, and the gloom in her eyes shattered into extreme wickedness and viciousness! “ Although, it would cost a lots of money.” The doctor added with a sense of worry. Beverly sneered and clenched her fists! “That won’t be a problem, as long as I can be able to work!” “ You will,” the doctor assured her truthfully. Max just watched their discussion with confusion written over his face. He was still pondering on what to do concerning Beverly. Beverly lowered her eyes coldly.She was going to get back at Liam and his family for this. ~~~~~ The next day spread out quickly, normal as usual. Liam got up from the bed and checked Zelda, including Angelina just to be sure they were fine. When they were awake, Liam called them together and apologized again for not being ther
He was secretly proud of them with the kind of loyalty that was exhibited and promised to them first. Though, there were other plans for them. In that moment, Liam received a video of the man been taken to the Pacific ocean, so his junior can be fed to the sharks.The video was a live one, and he relaxed himself even more just to watch it. King Oscar happened to be beside Liam and his expression paled the instant his eyes settled and understood what was in the video. Pa Black and Steven noticed his expression but they seemed hesitant to also see what was on the video. Liam curled his lips darky and motioned for them to come closer to him. " I don't bite, and you don't want to miss the fun." They quickly leaned closer and peered their eyes into the video. A man suddenly shouted in the video. " My Lord, we are ready!" " Go ahead." Liam's low and sinister voice flowed out immediately. A familiar man was tied with thick ropes, with his body bare completely. He was none other
Liam was out of the dean's office and he propelled towards ward ten. The hall was silent, which was perfectly what he wanted. It didn't take long for him to arrive at ward ten, which was a familiar ward. He didn't hesitate and stepped into the ward, the instant the door was opened....Beverly was just preparing to have her medicine as she was done with her dinner. She laid down and struggled to lift her body, so she could take her drug from the side table, which was three metres away from her bed. Suddenly, a hand stretched over and took the medicine instead.." You want this?" Liam's figure towered over her in a suppressing manner, his deep eyes capturing every bit of her. Beverly froze , her lips stiffening, not expecting to see Liam at this hour. She seemed to think of something for some seconds, and her expression changed into one of an aggrieved person. " Why are you here?" There was an underlying meaning in her strange tone, and she adjusted herself on the bed, not
