Richard Day's Legacy Chapter 120
"Not to waste too much time as I believe you also have things to do," Noah broke the silence, pushing the thoughts to the back of his mind.Since Andrew was this way, there was no need to think of a way to convince him."What do you need?" Andrew inquired. At this time, he had calmed down considerably, at least, he was no longer sweating,"As I said before, I'm Noah Parker, from the Parker family," Noah stared at Andrew, then paused before he continued,"I know you might not have heard of Parker's family, but that's not important." He continued, his voice becoming serious,"I heard there are quite several natural resources in this City, so we would like to cooperate with you to lend us a hand in extracting the natural resources."Andrew's expression changed upon hearing this. He should have known that this was what they wanted,"I....""You don't have to be in a hurry to disagree," Noah waved his hands, interrupting Andrew."Listen to me first, after everything, you can decide if

Watching as Noah's car drove off, Andrew breathed in a sigh of relief, his eyes settling,Now that he had left, the next thing was to go to Tony, since he was not willing to help him in the first place, then he and to tell him the good news,As for what he was planning on doing before, there wasn't any need to do it anymore. Now, all he needed to do was just sit back and then make Tony watch how he was going to succeed, it was going to be his revenge,In the best future, he was sure that Tony would regret not helping him, as he pondered on his seeming future, Andrew's eyes lit up, his lips turning up to a satisfactory smile, he turned to one of his men,"Prepare the car," he commanded,"We are going to visit the Mayor of the next town," he continued with a chuckle, his eyes twinkling."Yes sir," The men nodded in unison and hurried off to do as Andrew had ordered them.Soon, the car was ready, getting into the car. The driver stepped on the accelerator, speeding away to the required

"Sweet," Richard muttered while nibbling the fruit in his hands. In front of him was a plate filled with different fruits,After sending Cassandra away, he made one of the wardens get him the fruits and then sat back to watch TV with a smile on his face.Richard was less concerned with the ongoing of the outside world, he could care less about it all. After all, Aiden had been captured, and so he didn't think anything could go wrong any time soon,He was rather confident that nothing was going to go wrong at least for about a year or so.Aiden wouldn't be pardoned, besides seeing him incarcerated, anyone who dared to think of following in Aiden's footsteps would have a long rethink.Aiden had been the only one to dare rear his head, after thinking Richard was away for good, the others knew what Richard was capable of, and so they steered clear,A small, satisfying smile lit up Richard's face as he thought about it all and the peace he was currently enjoying.Until the serene silence i

Vivienne immediately picked up the call, smiling a little to herself as she did,“Hello, May- Richard" her giddy voice sounded from her end,"Vivienne, how are you doing," Richard replied, his voice rather calm, subtly clearing his throat,After the incident, the both of them hadn't seen themselves, and Vivienne found herself missing him. She knew she had developed feelings for Richard, but she wasn't sure if he also felt the same way towards her.Though she could tell from the way Richard always stared into her eyes. The way his voice was extremely calm and gentle when he was with her.The way he would lose his cool if anything was wrong with her and so many other things.Richard's clearing of voice and his voice broke through her reverie,"I need you to come over, I need your help on something," Richard's voice pulled Vivienne out of her thoughts."Huh?" Vivienne froze hearing what Richard said, grinning from ear to ear; she couldn't believe her ears.Richard needed her help and wa

"Here's the thing," Richard began, gazing at Vivienne intently "Tony, one of my allies called to inform me that Andrew came to him, telling him a Family from Brooksville wanted to come to Dalton City to mine the natural resource.”Instantly, Vivienne's brows and body perked up, as she leaned in closely. Richard nodded and continued,“Also, they'll give the city sixty per cent of whatever they were going to mine, keeping forty for themselves.""How is that possible?" Vivienne's expression hardened upon hearing what Richard said, and she narrowed her eyes at him, even if he was merely relaying what he had heard,"Even a fool would realize there's something wrong with that!” Vivienne frowned, "I know, but that's not the main problem. I'm certain they cannot succeed,” he affirmed, his voice ringing with certainty and ruthlessness,"Even if they are going to give up all of the mined natural resources, I don't care about it," he added and shook his head.As she listened, Vivienne's once s

As the lady waltzed her way in, walking as though she had a chip on her shoulders, Richard snapped his head to scowl at her, with Vivienne equally sneering,"Cassandra, what are you doing here?" Richard's expression changed, as she further walked into the cell"I knew you'd definitely be hungry, so I brought some food for you," Cassandra smiled sweetly, ignoring Vivienne, who was sitting beside Richard."I've brought some flowers over too. You used to like these ones back then," Cassandra continued, placing the flask in her hands on the table,Then she walked closer to Richard wanting to give him the flowers."I'd suggest you stay where you are?" Richard growled, narrowing his eyes at her, Squinting her eyes as her brows furrowed, Cassandra mumbled with widened eyes,"Huh?" and froze upon hearing his words,She expected this response, but she didn't expect to hear such hostility in Richard's voice, he was very different from the man who used to worship her. The way he spoke, it was a

At Cassandra's departure, Richard turned to Vivienne and nodded curtly at her,"Sorry about that," he apologized. Waving it off with a smile, she beamed with a response,"It's fine, you don't have to worry," Though her smile looked rather light, her heart was thumping heavily against her chest as she tried her best to prevent her cheeks from going red,She didn't know why, but she felt a complete sense of security when Richard scolded Cassandra on her behalf.She was just about to retort, but who would have expected that Richard was going to protect her?It felt so good, and she couldn't stop the thrills that went through her as she remained the tone which Richard had scolded Cassandra with,Cassandra had been overly sure that Richard wouldn't throw her out; considering they had once been engaged, she could stand his coldness but didn't think he could be that harsh. Neither did Vivienne.Vivienne's smile further deepened when she remembered Richard's attitude towards Cassandra when

The next day arrived faster than expected, Richard, dressed in plain khaki shorts and a shirt stood outside the prison walls, waiting for Vivienne's arrival,While waiting outside, a smile graced his lips as he took on the surroundings and felt the crisp air on him.Although thanks to Vivienne, his movement in the prison wasn't restricted, he wasn't one to take people for granted, hence he didn't take advantage of that privilege.Besides, he didn't want to give Andrew, Cassandra or even Harold another arsenal against Vivienne, because if they knew of the immense help she was rendering to him, it would be chaotic,Today was an exception; he had to investigate himself and be present; he wasn't going to leave anything to chance.Suddenly he heard the sounds of the vehicles before they pulled over,Rows of cars pulled up before him, and he nodded curtly at them as Vivienne popped out of her head,“Hop in, there's a little traffic ahead, we might get there late" Richard nodded briskly, sm

Considering Vivienne was a smart one, it didn't take long for the bulb to go off in her head, she suddenly went still, while her countenance immediately brightened,She finally figured out what Richard was driving at, and why he had indirectly asked all of those questions. Leaping to her feet, with widened eyes as she waved her hands, she turned to look at Richard,"I need to leave; I can't let Aiden escape!"Richard had been instrumental in giving her another lead, and she berated herself for not thinking about it in the first place. Smiling softly, she hurried over to Richard, lowered her head to his,"Thank you very much," and instantly placed a kiss on his cheeks before she ran out with flushed cheeks.Smiling softly to himself, Richard lifted his palm to graze at the lingering sensation, as he watched Vivienne run out of his room. Sighing a little, he relaxed onto his bed as he gazed at the television, a part of him wondering if Vivienne would be successful in catching Aiden and

Vivienne was still basking in the euphoria of the massage, expelling breaths at intervals and sighing with pleasure. The room was filled with pleasant silence aside from Vivienne's occasional sigh, it felt like Richard had been at it for hours, but in reality, it had only been a mere fifteen minutes,Richard's voice finally broke the silence, as he asked Vivienne,"Do you think the method you've taken to find the criminal who had just escaped is right?" still massaging her shoulders, he asked,"W-wha-?" Vivienne froze, jolting out of the immense relaxation she was in,She didn't know what technique Richard was using on her shoulders, but she could feel the tension and fatigue that had initially engulfed her, reducing."Answer me, Vivienne," Richard called softly, his voice pulling Vivienne out of her pleasing thoughts,Furrowing her brows, Vivienne absently nodded as she responded,"Yes, that's the most proper thing to do. After all, the officers who were there said they saw the car

Expelling a deep breath as he closed and opened his eyes, Andrew waved off his hands, dismissing Trent without looking at him,"You may leave," Trent immediately nodded his head, his head bobbing as he hurriedly left Andrew's office, he couldn't dare waste another minute,Andrew was like a ticking time bomb, a little erratic. Trent was sure that if he wasted another moment or displeased Andrew, he would fire him.Oblivious to the thought that raced through Trent's mind while he raced out of his office, Andrew sighed for the umpteenth time; he didn't know what to do anymore nor what to tell the masses. What was he to tell them?He had to think of a way to convince them that he would look into the matter and make sure Aiden was caught,Still, deep in thought, Andrew's eyes suddenly glistened as a thought flashed through his mind, and he flew off the couch, walking towards the scattered files as he searched for his phone, whose screen was already broken.Sighing, with a slow smile appea

While Aiden had successfully made his escape, an oblivious Andrew was in his office when someone rushed in, panting heavily with his face mapped in sweat,"Sir, we have a problem!" he exclaimed,"What problem?" Andrew snapped his head up to gape at the man who had rushed in. Still panting heavily, the fellow bent over, trying to catch his breath as he revealed, "Sir, the prisoner escaped," he reported, Despite the air conditioner and cold room, the fellow was still dabbed in sweat, fanning himself with his hand.As Andrew processed the news, he narrowed his eyes at Trent, a deep frown etched on his face as he asked loudly,"What prisoner?" Gazing intently at the man, he quirked his brow at him, awaiting a response. There were many prisoners awaiting trial, so how was he supposed to know which of them had escaped? A part of him hoped to God that Trent wasn't referring to Richard.Besides, the weight of Dalton City had fallen on him, though the Parker family had promised to help, th

Aiden's heart hammered against his chest as the car drove at a very high speed, though he could tell there was no way the officers were going to come after them, the person driving the car didn't seem to be thinking about this and was just driving at a crazy speed,Well, this didn't matter, he had finally escaped, he was going to finalize his plans.He made a mental note not to be as greedy as he was the last time, or else he was sure whoever had saved him wouldn't be willing to take such a risk again,Even the law was not going to be lenient with him. So he was thinking too far talking about the person who had just saved him.Aiden's eyes nearly popped out as he came to a sinking realization,“Damn it!" he mumbled beneath his breath, chewing on his lips. He didn't think about the consequences of following them as he was concerned about escaping, his fists turned ashen as he heaved; knowing he hadn't been rescued out of benevolence,He knew whoever had saved him, needed him for someth

Still in the van,Aiden rested his head on the seat with his eyes closed. He was not sure if he was to be happy or not,“Are you such a coward?!" he muttered to himself, wondering how whoever it was that wanted to save him had given up,What the heck was that? How could the person get scared and abandon their plans?Or was this just a plot to make him believe someone was coming to save him, and then, in the end, it was going to go all the same?“Damn it!” Aiden grumbled, furiously his nails,Heaving a sigh, he ran his hands through his hair, as he sighed again, accepting his fate, he had been excited for nothing, with that realisation, he couldn't help but curse at the police officers,“Bloody bastards!" he spoke through gritted teeth.Why the hell were they playing with his mind? Just as Aiden thought about giving up, a loud popping sound suddenly echoed throughout the whole place, shaking the car and making the driver, who was already at high speed, lose control,After a while, he w

While Clinton and the men were preparing to rescue Aiden, the van Aiden was seated, moving slowly down the path. The van was accompanied with armed military and police vehicles preceding and tailing it,The vehicles moved a little slowly, Aiden sat inside the van with lowered head, a shadow of himself,No one would believe it was the unruly Aiden Cross, he was disheveled. His hair was all scattered, and he looked rather lean.He hadn't been in prison for a month, yet he was reduced to such a terrible state, despite his connection, the prison look wasn't a good one on Aiden.Running a hand through his hair as he heaved a deep breath, Aiden's eyes closed briefly as Clinton's words echoed in his head. Gritting his teeth, he remembered how Clinton had urged him to abandon everything, but he had refused believing he could handle it,It turned out, he couldn't handle it as his obstinacy had cost him terribly, if he had listened to Clinton and escaped through the backdoor with him, he was su

"Sorry for the delay and the abrupt change in plan," Clinton apologized as he alighted from the car, staring at the group of men before him,The men nodded curtly as one of them responded,"It's nothing, we have been paid after all, so there's no need to get annoyed." while he spoke, he subtly sized Clinton up with his eyes,Clinton caught the man's gaze but commented nothing on it as he dished out his instructions,“Alright then, this would be our location until we're set to roll." gazing intently at them, he continued,"This time around, we're breaking him out of the van that would be conveying him to court” he informed them, as he also appraised them.The mercenaries were ten, and they came in two cars, though some of them were still inside the car, the ones before him all had hardened expressions on their faces,From their expression and countenance, Clinton could tell that this mission was a piece of cake for them, they were mercenaries who had gone through worse situations, even

"Where are you guys? I've been waiting for you all morning," Clinton spoke immediately as he answered the call,They had made him anxious, and they needed to know how much their actions had cost him,"Sorry Sir, we were held up by an assignment," A hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone."We'll be arriving in Dalton City in the next three hours." The voice informed,Clinton heaved a breath and nodded,"Alright then, I'll be waiting for you at the place we discussed; I'll bring some equipment and ammo with me," he ended the call.He was still invested in the matter as he was thinking about how to get Aiden out of prison. There was no way he was going to allow him to spend a day more in that damn place.The earlier he was able to break him out of prison, the quicker he would be able to recover all of his money,Pushing the matter to the back of his mind, Clinton switched on the TV wanting to cool down.But just as he was about to change the channel, something suddenly caught
