Sarah suck in a deep breath and inclined her head slightly downward. " Why are you keeping your identity a secret?" But immediately they she asked that, she instantly regretted it when she noticed the change in the atmosphere and goose pimples appeared on her skin unexpectedly.." Is that your duty now?" A low flat reply was heard, and Sarah quickly shook her head negatively. " Get out." Liam turned his back and faced the large window, slowly cracking his face with solemn eyes. Sarah gasped and hurriedly skipped away from Liam's office. Staying there for one more second, was dangerous to her, and she knew it. When she was out of sight, Liam picked a file and skimmed through it. It was the copy of Max's contract file. A cold nefarious smile tugged the corner of his lips, and he snorted. " Don't bother yourself Max, I am just getting started." ~~~~~~ ~ The State ~ Elsa sat gracefully in the magnificent mansion like castle, with her body screaming of affluence, as
Ariana widened her eyes hearing this, and she twisted her face. She felt irritated immediately with this and hissed loudly. " You are sick, mum!" Annoyingly, she stormed off!Elsa watched her daughter till she was out of sight and balled her fists! " The nerve of you to still stay here?! It seems you don't value your life!" She lashed out at the assistant and took the broken tea cup, wanting to throw it at the servant. The servant yelped and quickly scurried away! Elsa tugged her hair, the moment she was the one alone in the living room and headed straight to the wine cellar. She was so enraged to the extent she badly wanted to calm herself down. So, she took out a pack of cigar, remove one and lit it up. The same time, she poured herself a glass of hard wine..Sipping the wine and inhaling the cigar, her mind raced to Bruce's unknown bastard, who she was still yet to figure out.This was when an idea sparked in her head, and she curled her lips darkly. " Why don't we play
Max drew in a breath and gazed right into Beverly's eyes. " You have to use your assets to get Mr. Storm and make him do our biddings." Hearing this, Beverly's face changed, and she stood up from Max's thighs. " What was that huh?" She crossed her arms over her chest and scoffed, wanting to refuse what Max just said. " I can't believe you just said that. What do you take me for?" " No, Beverly you are getting it wrong." Max also stood up and placed his hands on her arms from behind. " I don't mean it that way, but you know this will be the only choice for us if the plan doesn't work. I just want you to understand that. Besides, our engagement party is already close, do you want this situation to ruin what we have been planning for five years? C'mon, Beverly think about it. I can't do this without you," he rested his chin on her neck, as he tried to persuade her. Beverly exhaled and pressed a hand over her face. " I will try." She turned to Max and embraced him tenderly. "
The president lowered his eyes and turned his attention to the assistant.." Is it Liam Storm or not?" The assistant gulped down and replied, " It is, Mr. President." " Damn!" The president's expression turned ugly, and he twitched his lips. " I know it's him. I know!" He was actually aware it was Liam Storm, who acquired all the medical institutions in Avalon, and it pissed him off, but he had to back his thought with a solid proof, which was why he sent his assistant to investigate about it. " Mr. President, what do you intend on doing?" The assistant asked the president. " What else?!" The president snapped and hissed in annoyance. " Bring him down without him knowing! I have to let him know I control this country and not him! I am the ruler here, and he has to bow to him!" He took out his phone and dialed an unfamiliar line. " I want you to start monitoring Liam Storm as from now on. Update me on anything he is doing. I have to use something to get him out of the pict
It didn't take long when they got to the mansion. Getting off from the car, Liam called Gwin and instructed him, " Tell all the companies cooperating with Max and his father's company to cut off all collaborations now, or else they should prepare to face my wrath! If Max and his father want to know why, they should ask their beloved upcoming family member!" Gwin shivered with the tone of Liam, but he wouldn't dare to waste any time in executing Liam's order. ~~~ At this time, Griffen was skimming through some files in his study room, when he suddenly got a call from one of the shareholders of the company. " Hello, prof. It's been a while," Griffen said, as soon as he answered the call and placed down the file in his hand.." Keep the greeting to yourself Griffen! You almost ruined my life, but I won't let you! I am withdrawing all my shares from the company, and I won't partner with you again!" The shareholder at the other end of the call, bawled immediately. " You can c
Max was immediately flummoxed and astounded." What has Beverly got to do with this situation, Dad?" Griffen was impatient and wasn't in the proper mood to give Max an answer. " You two better bring your ass here now!" Max felt something weird and perilous from his father's tone and instantly knew this was no joke at all. " Yes, dad." " Arhhh!" Griffen fisted his palms and banged the desk loudly! " Mr. Storm! What have I done to deserve this?!" Emilia pushed open the door in a startled manner. Her eyes flew all around the study room till it landed on Griffen, who was pacing back and forth, with a troubled look."Is there something wrong?" She ambled forward and asked worriedly. " I came here, when I heard your shout." " Leave me alone!" Griffen snapped at her in irritation and pushed her aside, as he proceeded out of the study. " Ha!" Emilia yelped, almost losing her balance. " What is wrong with you, Griffen?!" Griffen got to the living room and waited for Max
Max didn't stop and continued with his beating.Beverly, who was groaning out of discomfort and pain, suddenly went quiet and stopped breathing....." Haaaa!" Emilia was swift to notice this, and she panicked! " What have you done?!"Griffen narrowed his eyes and pressed his lips together. " Mum, don't disturb me. I need to deal with her!" Max snapped at Emilia and clenched his fists even tighter. " Max, stop! She is not breathing anymore!" Emilia exclaimed and hurried forward.." What?!" Max paused and looked down at Beverly.." Beverly!" He called loudly and shook her body, but there was no response from her. " Is she?" Emilia knelt on the tiled floor and gasped, with fear surging in her heart..Max's face turned ugly and crestfallen! " No! She can't be! I was just....... what have I done?!" Emilia patted her chest and drew in a deep breath. " Let's take her to the hospital now, before it's too late," she said. Max nodded and carried Beverly in a bridal style. " Mum, ple
Liam was amused but didn't have time for this.Without giving a response, he hung up and snapped his right index finger with his right thumb. " Track them down!" He gave a sharp order to Gwin! " Right away sir!" Gwin scram away immediately.~~~ On the flip side, David and Clara were astonished with what Liam just did. " Do you think he is going to drop that kind of money?" Clara shook her head with doubt and questioned David. David pinched the bridge of his nose and kept his phone in his pocket. " He must! He doesn't have a choice, or else I will expose him, with his appearance. He has to pay for what he made me go through." " I am just asking though," Clara muttered beneath her breath and turned her back. " If that's it, then I guess we have to wait. He might call us back or send us a message." David's eyes twitched and got impatient even more.." Well, he better be quick." ~~~ It was already evening time. The situation of the Rogers' business, and what they
