At the hotel lounge, Elsa and the rest were facing one another. Elsa sat on a high seat and looked down at James, Clara, Kai, and Oliver, who were sitting below her, as if they were just peasants who amount to nothing. She tilted her chin upward haughtily and crossed her arms against her chest, exuding a natural queen temperament. Oliver, James and Clara were displeased and felt a sense of irritation with Elsa's arrogant and disdainful look. They appeared calm and decent on the surface, but inwardly, their resentment was growing like a tumor..James and Oliver in particular were not comfortable with Elsa's gaze, as they were felt they were been stepped upon. Especially for Oliver, who had been in a wealthy position before. He couldn't take it, but none of them possessed the insolent boldness to complain. Well, Kai was the only one who didn't seem to care, as if he was used to a kind of gaze like that." I can say you are all aware of the reason for this meeting." Elsa brok
Olive frowned and swiftly gave Angelina a playful swat.." Angelina, what are you thinking about? Aren't you too young to be deep in thought?" She asked in a cute voice and tilted her head to one side, blinking innocently. Angelina jolted slightly due to the playful swat, and she pulled her forehead, reflecting her displeasure. " No one is too young to be deep in thought. Only brainless people, with low intelligence quotient can't have a thought." She remarked sternly. Olive was astounded and pushed her lips outward, rubbing her chin. " I don't understand your words. " She admitted confusingly. " That's because you fit into the category." Angelina shrugged her shoulders casually, responding in a flat tone. " What category?" Olive frowned in a puzzled manner and leaned closer to Angelina. " Is it a good category? Ow, please tell me."Angelina smacked her forehead with her palms and rolled her eyes. So dumb! She thought. " I am not in the mood for that." She refused Olive
Though, Liam didn't say anything to this. He was only astounded to hear his daughter talking in a mature and dignified manner. They got to the hospital on time and headed to Zelda's ward. Upon arriving there, Zelda was just finishing her lunch. Her face lit up when it landed on the two, and she beamed, her eyes curving happily. " My baby!" She squealed and spread her arms out, a signal of wanting an embrace. Angelina simpered, with happiness blossoming in her, and her eyes twinkled! She ran and jumped into her mother's embrace, snuggling like a little kitten, but she was careful in her action not to hurt her mother. Liam chuckled amusingly and took a seat facing them. " So I am now excluded, hun?" He pouted sadly, staring at the two females laughing heartily at each other. Angelina stuck out her tongue and taunted, " Daddy, you have been having mummy all to yourself, and now it's my turn." Liam could only smile helplessly and let her have her way. Some minutes later,
Elsa and the rest were done with their meeting and proceeded to have dinner. Once they were done with the dinner, Elsa revealed part of their plans in conquering Liam. They all paid a rapt attention and listened out attentively. " I want to have everything he has now! That's why I will take the step one by one, and crush him till he will have no chance against me!" Clara nodded in agreement with Elsa. " In that case, we have to attack his wealth source first, then his powers would greatly reduced! With that, he would amount to nothing in front of us, and we can easily destroy him!" " Yes." An evil grin slipped to Oliver's mouth, and he added cruelly, " In addition, we can reveal his identity before we proceed to other plans. I am sure if his identity is revealed, it will cause a spark in the country and even the States. Everyone will know who he is, and what he looks like. Then we would be able to strike the more, since he won't be able to move freely like before." H
Zelda responded in a whisper and snuggled closer to him, smiling sheepishly. " It took a while, but I have come to know that you are my world. Without you, I am just an empty shell with no use. I was existing, but when you came, I started living and even loving myself. I became a new me, and that's all because of you. So tell me, how would I feel if I lose someone like you?" Liam's lips tugged upward on their own, and his ears heated up! Though, he didn't comment to Zelda's words, but his heart leaped in utmost joy! But in that moment again, his expression faltered, and his grip on Zelda loosened a bit. Immediately, Zelda felt the change in Liam and turned her head to him. " Liam?" " Why didn't you tell me what's bothering you? Am I not worthy or don't deserve to know?" He blurted out unexpectedly and lowered his head. Zelda realized the situation and felt guilty. She sighed and fully turned her body to Liam on the bed. Holding his hands, she said sincerely, " I didn't
Liam's heart arched for her, but he assured her, " You don't have to worry about him or his words. I am here now, and with me here, he won't do anything to you! I will do everything to stop him, even if I have to pull the world down!" Zelda's heart immediately began to fluster, soaring, swelling, and it felt like it was going to leap with joy in the next moment. " Thank you." She expressed her gratitude, as her cheeks went pink, and she quickly her face under the cover like a little kid. Liam was amused by this, a corner of his lips lifting up. " I have something to tell you."'Suddenly, he reached out his hand to the small wardrobe beside him and took out something like a big colored document from it. " Here, take a look." Zelda's face calmed, and her brows furrowed with curiosity. She took the document from him and checked it out. Instantly, her face turned white, and she covered her lips with her fingers! The document dropped to the bed, and she snapped her head towa
The door to the hospital snapped opened, and a stretcher was immediately wheeled in! This nurses rushed forward, just to handle it. " Please! You have to be careful with her! I don't want her to get hurt the more.....please..." Max shouted at them, his voice trembling as a tear slided down from his right eye. The nurses nodded obediently, and the unconscious Beverly, who was on the stretcher was pushed into the ward. Max wanted to go after the nurses into the ward, but he was stopped and requested to wait behind. Frustrated and unconformable, he leaned against the wall and ruffled his hair violently!He felt so messed up and couldn't help but blame himself for Beverly's plight. " It's all my fault! It's all mine! If something really happens to her, I will blame myself to death!"Griffen walked in and saw the despondent and haunted look in his son's eyes. He sighed and rubbed his face slowly. They could only hope the best for the woman trying to fight for her life in
Zelda smiled at him and embraced him slightly. " You don't have to worry. I can handle this. Just get Angelina ready for school, please. I will go ahead and face them." ~~~~ Andrea and Brian, got even more infuriated when no one came to answer them despite the tantrums they were throwing, and they thought Zelda was truly daring. As they were about to come up with another plan, Zelda walked out of the mansion and faced them, standing akimbo. " Are you two going to tell me you don't remember this is a private estate, and I am sure you are aware of private estate rules. So don't you think it is unacceptable and undignified to cause a scene and early tantrums in a place like this? Even Angelina is too sensible to do such a lowly thing like this. I expect nothing less from you two," she remarked disdainfully at them, seizing them up with her eyes, and her nose crinkled immediately. She twitched her nose and rubbed it, stepping back in disgust. " I am going to literally advis
“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
