Richard Day's Legacy Chapter 126
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

"Hello sir," Franklyn's voice came from the other end of the phone,"Franklyn?" Richard called gently, the smile on his face deepening a bit,"Sir, I've found out about Parker's family." Franklyn began, pausing for a moment before he continued again.“Would you like me to tell you about them or would you prefer for me to send the files over to you, Sir?" Franklyn asked over the phone,For a moment, Richard was deep in thought before he finally responded,"Tell me. What did you find out," Richard answered, he wasn't sure he was in the mood to read any file, and he wanted to get the information over with."Just as you've guessed sir, Parker's family is just a small family in Brooksville. Though for some reason recently, they've been having a major breakthrough." Franklyn explained, his voice carrying some sort of weight,"In just a month, they were about to move from a third-rate family in Brooksville to a first-rate family. Even the other first-rate families have had to tread with the

"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

"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

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

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

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

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
