“What do you think you’re saying? Do you think killing Marcus Claw would be that easy?” Bianca sat up staring at the guard who had come to give her some report, her mind raced as she stared in shock and panic. “Who would have the mind to even carry out such an act?”“The culprit is yet to be found, the entire Claw has been murdered except Mr Zain himself.” The guard answered and Bianca couldn’t help but feel even more bothered about the situation. Normally she would not have cared since both families were business rivals but now that her daughter would be dragged into this because of the previous cases that had risen she could only feel scared for her daughter’s safety.To top it lol, the Claw family also had the backing of the Cauldron groups which was among the top in the country.“This is trouble.” She let out a frustrated sigh as she sipped her tea which was getting cold.“What’s up?” Karina walked into the room dressed in a loose night silky gown yawning tiredly and stretching he
“I’m doing all of this for you.” Bianca retorted but Karina wasn’t ready to listen to any more things she wanted Ted to say and walked out. “You best! If only you knew just what I was going for you.” She mumbled rolling her eyes as she let out a deep sigh.“Seke?” She called out and working seconds he made his way into the room bowing his head in respect before gazing up at her and waiting for her instructions.“I want you to send a message to Salvador, the leader of the Cauldron group stating that Michael is the culprit of the situation at hand,” Bianca instructed but Seke was taken aback and even hesitant to do it causing Bianca to arch her brows while staring at him and waiting for his response.“B-but he had saved Miss Karina earlier,” Zeke tells her feeling some sense of guilt rather than his heartless self.“Do you have any problems with the order I gave? Yes, he saved her but he’s about to put her life in danger again, I’m not about to let that happen.” Bianca said she was a he
“Don’t speak to me that way.” Calix glared at Michael who was puzzled by the way Michael had reacted.“I would consider helping you since Lucy had asked earlier but don’t think I’m going to let go of this.” Michael glared at him. “The only way I can actually help is if you sincerely apologize to me otherwise I would leave your mother to die.” Michael added making Calix feel as though he had been cornered, he had limited options and could not let his mother die.“How dare you demand such a thing? Have you any idea what I can actually do to you? Do you really think that I would do that?” Calix continued to spot out while staring at Michael in annoyance.“It’s your choice whether or not to actually see your mother.” Michael shrugged his shoulders, he cpidl t care the least what happens to that woman, if Calix’s mother died then he would have himself to blame for his pride.“Bear in mind that is you don’t act wisely , your mother would be dead in a few days and you would have yourself to
“You can always give it back if you still think that the price is outrageous.” Michael stretched out his arm but Calix held back the bottle and huffed.“I could seriously tag you as a thief because of this.” Calix rolled his eyes and waved at his driver who walked out of the car handing Calix a check and pen, he quickly wrote the amount and signed before giving it to Michael. “Here you have it.”Without wasting any more time she quickly made her way to the hospital, her heart raced so fast that she thought she was going to pass out but she soon reached the room where her mother was admitted, entering the room she was worried about seeing the doctors looking in pity, she thought it was all over and that she was probably too late. Alice quickly made her way towards her with a worried gaze.“What did he say? Is there any chance?” She asked curiously.“Of course there is.” He rolled his eyes not giving her any acknowledgement and turned his head to the doctors. “How is she?” Even though h
The doctors all stared in shock that the pill had indeed worked, making their expertise seem worthless, and that they even felt terrible calling themselves doctors.“How is it possible that such an unknown pill could heal her in a short matter of time?” The older doctor muttered with a baffled gaze as he stared at Vera who was very much full of life.“Why don’t you give us a pill so that we could make a research with it?” The younger doctor asked Calix who was still mad at him for what he had said earlier and punched him in the face causing him to stagger backwards groaning in pain.“How much more stupid do you want to be?” He glared at him wanting to punch him again.“Calix darling, come over here.” His mother’s voice made him pause and he quickly made his way towards her with a smile. He had almost lost her and here she was back to her old self. The doctors quickly left the room before any more situations may arise.“Mum I’m glad you’re okay, thanks to this pill you’re back to yours
“There’s no need to be frightened, I believe your aunt Vera would no doubt help in this case,” Alice assured him before pulling out her phone from her bag, after all, Vera was highly influential and could pull some threads to get him out.“Hello?” Vera answered calmly on the other line of the phone which gave Alice the go-ahead to state the issue at hand. “Please Blame had some issues and has been arrested, can you do something about it?”“Oh really?” Vera sighed. “How can I help when your daughter destroyed the only source of help?”“What do you mean?” Alice was confused.“Well she had left with another man during the supposed date she was to have with Raphael, there’s no way their family would help after what had occurred,” Vera explained. “I don’t even want to have anything to do with you or I could as well be seen as an enemy of his family too, so deal with it on your own.” Before Alice could speak another word, the line was disconnected.What the hell did you do Lucy?” Alice sna
Vera ended the call with a smile on her face immediately she had heard what Lucy said and turned her gaze to Raphael. “I can’t believe it was that easy to make her change her mind.” Calix scoffed staring at Raphael who was amazed and also happy that he had gotten a hold of Lucy so easily. “It was inevitable that she was going to become mine, there’s no way I would have let her be.” He smiled staring at his watch with a smirk on the corner of his lips. “It’s great that her dear cousin had to play such an important role in helping make this possible.” “Of course, women like her act so tough and are very feeble when it comes to their family, you’re very smart for that move.” His friend beside him commented with a pleased look on his face. “Mmhhhmm.” Raphael hummed smiling with so much achievement, there was no way he could take no for an answer from any woman, he would break her knees as long as it would make her succumb to his arms. “One thing seems to make me quite curious you
Her phone rang for a while before she finally picked up and with a sullen voice she responded.“Hello?”“Hey, I was going to treat you out for dinner tonight and you’re yet to show up.” He tells her.“Oh,” She replied making his throat tinge as he mentally hoped she wasn’t to decline, after all, she had found a way to make their relationship work.“So?” He furrows his brows waiting for her to say something.“I’m very busy at work and can’t join you at the moment so maybe you could schedule it for another day.” She replied calmly shattering every spectacle of hope he had.“It’s fine, I shouldn’t have bothered you.” A forded smile formed on his lips holding in the pain he felt in his chest and desperately wanted to hang up at that moment.“Hey Lucy, quit answering calls and come drink more with me.” He heard a man’s voice in the background before the line went off.Lots of questions filled his mind as he began to wonder if truly she loved him or was playing with his feelings, did she le
