"Hugh Steele," Bruce snarled immediately he got out of the car. "Come out with Mr. Archibald this very moment."
"Hugh Steele. Son of a demon.""That's not a very good way to address your father in law.Bruce scowled at both father and child as soon as they walked out of the house."Where is Mr. Archibald?" Bruce snarled."I'm with him. What would you do about that?" Hugh Steele asked."I'd make sure you rot in jail if you don't provide him this very moment," Bruce threatened.Hugh Steele laughed. "You're the richest, we get it, but are you the most powerful. I have tons of connections. You, on the other hand are hated by everyone. You can try, but you can't harm me.""Just tell me where Mr. Archibald is." Bruce gritted his teeth."I would give him to you myself," Hugh Steele said, grinning. "Well, that is if you get married to my Tricia."Tricia, who had been standing next to her father the wh

Claire stopped walking to breathe.She looked around. She was certain that there were rooms in the mansion that had been left unchecked, but she was tired already."Why would someone build a house this big for a family that isn't up to twenty?" Claire asked herself. "The maids are ten times more than the family members. What does one person need ten maids for?"It was the second time she was seeing a house as big as this. The first time was when she visited Cole at the Fulton's mansion.She frowned as soon as she remembered his name. She did not want to remember him. Claire heard loud chattering from the maids and as soon as she did, she grabbed the broom she sighted leaning on the wall and began to sweep gently. When they got closer, she looked down to avoid them getting a glimpse of her face."Did you hear what I heard?" A maid began."If you don't tell us what you heard, how would we know what you heard?" Another maid asked and the rest of the maids agreed."What did you hear?" Ano

Archibald heaved a sigh of frustration.The last thing he wanted was to be a villain in Bruce's story. Bruce needed an heir. If he didn't get one, all his hardwork and that of his ancestors would be in vain.Mr. Archibald shook his head. There was no way he would let that happen. "Claire," Archibald called out softly and walked towards her like he was about to say words that would convince her to agree with him."You have to act like you have not seen me. It's for Bruce's good.""Tricia? Bruce's good?" Claire scoffed. "I disagree."Mr. Archibald shrugged. "That's okay if you say so.""I'm glad you—" Claire fell to the ground before she could complete the sentence. Mr. Archibald looked at his left hand which he used in giving her a carotid strike slightly below her jaw."I hope I don't regret this," he muttered to himself softly. He looked at the door to the room that was widely opened, rushed to it, slammed it shut and locked it.He leaned back on the door and heaved a sigh of frust

"Stop her," Hugh Steele snarled, seeing that Claire was about to stop the wedding.Immediately, two men began to rush toward Claire."Don't you dare touch her," Bruce snarled and the men froze. Seeing that she had gotten permission from Bruce himself, Claire rushed to Bruce.Tricia threw her hand toward Claire's hair in an attempt to drag her away, but before she could, Bruce caught her hand in mid air and threw it away.Claire was very close to Bruce now. She drew closer to him and whispered something into his ear. Bruce countenance changed. He was visibly angry. Without paying attention even to the priest, Bruce rushed from the alter to the front door, then out of the building with Claire following suit, leaving behind a confused congregation. ~~~~~~~~~~~~"What are you doing?" Mr. Archibald asked, annoyed at how Rex had tricked and trapped him. "You told me that you were willing to help me. Did you not say you would take me to somewhere hidden until the wedding is over.

"Do you have anyone in mind?" Mr. Archibald frowned. His frowning face morphed to a look of frustration. "Do you even have any woman in your life apart from that nosy P. A. of yours?"Mr. Archibald turned to Claire and frowned. "Do you think you were doing him good? You only made the matter worse? Those guys out there wants the name Ace to die and you helped them.""I can always adopt a child," Bruce said dryly."Like it's that easy. Do you think these people don't keep tabs on you? Do you think they won't know if you try to adopt a child and won't try to sabotage that plan? Seems like you don't know what you're up against.""I don't need you to tell me what to do," Bruce Ace snarled and Mr. Archibald smiled sadly."You do," Mr. Archibald pointed out. "You already know how cold this world is. In a cold world like this, you need people who truly love you behind your back. Sadly, these people are rare to find. Now, you're pushing one away.""You were trying to trick me into marrying the

"Sir, I heard something about you and Claire being betrothed a long time ago. You were both in love and had almost gotten married," Rex said immediately they stepped into Bruce's compound."Why are you suddenly saying this?""I wanted to know if it's true, because if it is, are you sure your plan would work without feelings springing up—""We never loved each other. I thought I did and I thought she did but I was wrong.""So you're saying—""Just mind your business," Bruce said sternly. He looked forward to the door before him and pushed the door open."Are you done making a whore your wife?" Claire, who was seated on the sofa, asked and Bruce glared at her."The earlier you workers know your place, the better."Claire rolled her eyes."There are tons of respectable women out there, despite how you feel that all women are a bunch of deceivers. You could have picked any of them but no, you decided to go for a whore." "Why are you being stereotypical? They are humans like you, aren't t

"The wedding of the century. No, the wedding of all centuries. Bruce Ace, the former most eligible bachelor is now married to one Claire who used to be his P. A. What do you think of this, Tim?""Bruce Ace getting married all of a sudden is quite strange. He is drop-dead gorgeous and rich, but strongly misogynistic. Marriage was definitely the last thing we expected. His marriage to this P. A. of his must have been beneficial to him one way all the other?""But this girl is basically a nobody. How is marrying his P. A. beneficial?""Or maybe he loves her. There are several clips of them acting all cute. Bruce even smiled. The only time I have seen him smile is in those videos.""Mom, what are you watching," Claire asked as she walked into the hospital room.She could hear the conversations ongoing on the TV from outside the room."They are talking about you," Angela, Claire's mom said, smiling. "You managed to make the richest man in the world fall in love with you. Other ladies were

"What do you mean by ‘you want your mother to stay with us’?"Claire looked at Bruce without saying a word. He was fuming, clearly angry about what she had suggested. It was her mother's idea. Their operation ‘make Bruce fall in love with Claire' had begun. Her mother, Angela would have to live with her and Bruce to make sure nothing went wrong."No, I won't let that happen.""I want my mother to stay with me after she gets out of the hospital. I'm the only family she has. If she doesn't stay with me, who would she stay with?""I can arrange a nice apartment for her. Even if she wants a mansion, I would get it for her, but she's not living in this house.""Not everyone is interested in your money, Sir Bruce. I'm doing this for my mom and she can't live without me.""She's not staying and that's final.""In that contract of yours, isn't it written that me getting married to you would come with the benefit of my mother being taken good care of? What better way can this happen than her l
Rise Of Billionaire Bruce Ace. Chapter one hundred and nine: how you do that.
"I am certain a beauty such as yourself can spare to spend time with a beast such as myself. If not, then it is not right to spend your time in your mother's quarters. Why not move to a house with her and marry her?" He blurted. Bruce was aware that he spoke out of line due to anger and when Claire and her mother came to view, he could not keep his anger bridled, neither could he ignore the fact that they were supposed to pretend to be so in love. Claire's mother let out a gasp but did a quick job of hiding her facial reaction."Son, I did not mean… you do not mind me calling you my son, do you?" Claire's mother asked, inquisitively waiting for a reaction. She wanted her daughter to know all his touchy spots. Is this one of them? Bruce kept a blank face. The red of his anger had dissipated slowly and Claire finally left her mother's side. She took off her robe and walked gingerly towards the enormous bed. She had spent a considerable amount of time wondering how she was going to shar
