Chris reached the car waiting and Ria followed after him with a look of urgency. Before he got into the already opened black car, she stopped him.

“Chris! Why are you doing this?” She asked frantically, her eyes hurt and demanding answers.

“What do you mean?” He frowned.

“Do you just want to go back on your words now? She asked. “You asked me to summon Reid and everything and now you just want to bolt away because of Ria?”

“Do you realize you are putting me in deep waters with Reid and the rest? How do you want me to–”

“Tha’s none of my business, Ria.” Chris cut her off.

“What?” She gasped.

“Well, I do not care if I go through with what I planned with you. Who are you to stop me?” Chris sneered.

“But–”

“No buts, Ria. You have absolutely no say here. Get into a car and let’s go.” He ordered and in the next second, he got into the car, causing Alexander to quickly go to him as well.

There was another car waiting for Ria and the Ricos and as she stood there frozen, Alexander look

    As Ria was being dragged straight to the back of the mansion, Chris slowly walked up to Mia and her parents. He greeted them with a bow, and then looked at Mia, “How have you been?” He reached out to her, to hold her hands but she quickly drew away from him. She seemed as if Chris was a plague that couldn't be touched and even her parents stood before her to shield her. “You should stay away from her, Chris.” Her father spoke up, which left Chris confused. “If you wanted me to stay away from her, why are you here?” Chris’ temper was rising and he didn't like the way they treated him. “We are not here for you, boy. Your father invited us here. And even if we are at war with your family, and we decided to take your family’s help, it doesn't mean you can speak to our daughter!”“Not after what you did to her!” Mia’s father thundered. “At war?” Chris frowned. “What do you mean? I did nothing to Ria!” He deflected their accusation and his eyes searched for Ria but she fell behind her

    Mia looked at her parents in disbelief and embarrassment and when they said nothing to her question, she felt like her head was being blown off. “You told me the Westminster family kidnapped me! You said they wanted to sell me off. You never told me it was because of what you did. You kidnapped Chris too!” Mia’s voice was raised a notch higher and a sinking feeling of betrayal overwhelmed her. On the other hand, Chris was still frowning because he couldn't recall ever being kidnapped by Mia’s father or anyone at that. In fact, his childhood memories were blurry and he could remember the poverty he went through with his father. Mia’s father suddenly spoke up, “Put yourself in my shoes, Mia! My company was ruined! If he had at least helped me at the time, we would have been on par with the West Conglomerate.”He didn't feel any atom of remorse, all he felt was that he did good. “So, you wanted to get back at the Westminsters by kidnapping Chris and then later on, you lied to me, rid

    “Mia!!” Mia’s father continued to scream after her, as he wanted to get her back at all costs in order to curry favor with the Westminsters. However, Mia was determined to ignore her father to the end. She didn't mind or think of where she was going to go to, all she knew was that she needed to get out of the Westminster mansion. As soon as she crossed the high gates, her father’s voice faded behind her. She spotted a cab and quickly stopped it, without telling a specific destination. At this point, she didn't mind spending the last cash on her, so she would be taken far away. While the cab drove off, leaving a trail of soot behind, Mia leaned her head on the car window, teats clouding her eyes. She had taken the wrong turn in everything and this was what her actions landed her. She betrayed Chris for her parents and it turned out they were lying to her. “Miss, what is your destination?” The cab driver asked, calmly. “Take me to the City’s college…” However, her voice trailed of

    Back at the Westminster mansion, Chris was discussing with his father what their next steps regarding the company and the underground business they ran. At the same time, his father suggested him going back to school which didn't sit quite well with Chris. Chris didn't see himself fitting back into college and if ever he was named the heir of the Westminster family, he knew his life would never be quiet. “I will think about it, father.” Chris nodded. “That’s alright.” Jones waved his hands nonchalantly. “You don’t need to beat yourself over it. Soon, I will be stepping down from my position and you have to take over. And then, I will introduce you to the main business here.”Chris was confused at first about the main business but then he slowly understood. Just like their company business, the mafia business was also present in different countries. Chris couldn't begin to fathom just how large and deep the claws of the Westminster family were. While they were discussing, the door

    The bickering between Ren and Mike continued for a long while after that and eventually, Ren stood up to his feet and sent a punch straight at Mike’s face. “Do you just want to be blind and end yourself in the process?” Ren snarled, in anger. He hated the way Reid and Mike were ordering him around to do whatever they wanted and now, it was like he was their dog.Since Jose died, Ren found himself doing most of the odd jobs and errands Jose used to do. He was the lowest in status among the three and even though Mike’s family business was no longer functional, Mike was crazy and wicked and he continued to exert dominance. In that case, everything fell on Ren but now he was fed up. “Shut the fuck up! If anyone is going to end themselves here, it’s going to be you! How dare you go against me?” Mike snarled and attempted to punch Ren but in the next second, Ren deflected the attack smoothly.Swiftly, he pushed Mike to the ground. Before Mike could get on his feet, he quickly went ahead

    Ten hours later…Mia finally opened her eyes, her heart skipping a beat to see that all around her was dark and she couldn't even see past a centimeter distance. “Hello? Is anyone there?” She gasped, in fear that she was still at that abandoned building where Mike had taken her. The adrenaline rush in her body to escape came like a rushing wind and she quickly stood up. She wanted to escape as fast as she could however, when she was up on her feet, her leg got stuck and in the next second, she fell face flat on the ground with her legs hovering in the air..“Ohh…” She breathed out loud, in pain, with her heart beating rapidly. Her eyes turned dizzy due to the position she was in and the darkness too. At this point, she finally started to notice that there was a bed behind her and her legs were stuck in the sheets while her upper body was on smooth ground. She recalled that she had been taken away from the abandoned garage by an unknown person after hearing Ren and Mike argue. And

    With nothing left to think of, Mia had to run out of the Westminster mansion even though she looked very shabby from yesterday’s incident. She didn't even wait for the butler to come get her because she thought her parents were in danger. Soon, she got a cab outside the house and made sure to confirm the driver’s identity before getting in. In thirty minutes, she rushed into the police station, to find her parents. She was frantic, and even some of the officers tried to stop her but Mia couldn't stop searching for her parents. Maybe…they had been taken by one of their creditors.After the fall of their family business, Mia found out that they had lots of debts to pay and her parents could be taken at any time. “Mia! Come here!” She heard her father’s voice and her head snapped in the direction. They sat before a table with a police officer attending to them. She quickly broke through the police officers trying to stop her and when she reached her parents, she checked to see if they

    As Mia’s parents watched her leave, they couldn't contain the disappointment they had on their faces. Their daughter who was supposed to help them get a better life was being so stubborn and adamant. They felt so embarrassed when they were thrown out of the Westminster mansion. They felt mocked and they vowed that they would do anything to get back at the Westminster. And if their daughter couldn't help them, then they would do something else. “Is plan B ready?” Mia’s father asked and her mother nodded. She was already typing away on her phone, scheduling with the next person who was going to help them. “Let’s go back to the hotel…” He said. “Mia will definitely come to us when she finally sees that we are the only one she has. She has no place to stay…”Immediately, he turned the other way to leave.

  • Following Chris

    “How did it go?” Chris asked as he scrolled through a few documents on his phone. He was particularly concerned about how Mars had reacted to the order he gave. “We have nothing from him. After he left the meeting room, he disappeared.” Rico Axe said. “He just disappeared?” Chris raised a brow in question. “Yes!” Rico nodded. “Can you find more information on him? Something about him just ticks me off. His sudden appearance is suspicious.” Chris demanded, his gaze turning dim in thought. “Alright. I will do that.” Rico nodded. “Also, the police have requested your presence.” “Why?” Chris frowned. “Reid is yet to be found and they are asking if you can give them any information. They need you in for questioning tomorrow.”“Hmm…” Chris frowned, feeling like something was off. He didn't think Reid had the resources to hide so well but. He could decide to mobilize his men to look for Reid but it could interfere with the police work. However, on his end, Reid was a ticking time bom

  • Mars’ Dilemma

    Mars stared at Walker Rice, hoping he would do something and say something on his behalf but that didn't happen. Walked joined Rico Axe in staring at him, waiting for him to leave. On the other hand, Mars knew he couldn't just leave, or else he would be in a lot of trouble. “Can you tell me why?” He asked Rico, trying to stay calm. “I can’t say, Mr. Mars. My job is to receive direct orders from my boss.” Rico shook his head, nonchalantly. Finally, his last resort, Mars looked at Walker, “Boss, do something.”Walker closed his eyes, torn between speaking up for Mars and just continuing the meeting. There was a lot at stake and he couldn't afford to offend Chris. So he said, “Maybe you should think about what you did. Chris wouldn't just do a thing like this. While you are out, reflect on your actions.”Mars was taken aback. He begged for the deal to be reinstated and a while ago, Walker was commending him and now, he was being treated like someone who had done wrong. In that mome

  • See Your Assistant Out

    Chris was right in the car, staring curiously at Mars who kept banging his head on the hard floor. Even though he was dripping with blood down his head, Mars didn't stop. Also, Chris observed that his skin tore way too easily. He wasn't concerned about the self-harming Mars but he was incredibly curious. It seemed Mars was unpredictable. And as he looked out of the windscreen, with the lights shining on Mars’ face, it was as if Mars was looking back at him, with an eerie smile. Even though he was obviously in pain, Mars was smiling. But the most disturbing thing was that the car windows were tinted and there was no way Mars knew Chris was looking at him. He was just staring. Second by second, he looked even more unpredictable to Chris and irked him so much. If Chris wanted to, he could drive off and leave him to continue self-harming but he didn't do that. He stepped out of the car, his hands in his pockets as he approached Mars. “Do you want to die here?” Chris spoke up, standi

  • Entry-level Worker

    Rice Walker stormed out of the high-end restaurant with blazing anger. He went straight to the parking lot where Mars was already waiting by the car and without stopping, he stormed toward the assistant. Pak!“Are you out of your fucking mind?” Walker yelled. “Who do you think you are to ruin a billion-dollar deal like that?”“Can your whole existence ever pay for it?” Walker snarled, his eyes twitching because he was feeling extreme anger. He wanted to raise his hand at Mars again but he held back, breathing heavily. “I am sorry.” Mars bowed his head slightly. “I didn't know what came over me. I misspoke.”“I don’t care if you misspoke! The only reason why you are here today is because my father asked me to take you along as my assistant!” “If he realizes you are trying to ruin this deal, he is going to do the unimaginable to you, do you understand?” Walker hinted at what could happen. His father was banking on this deal as well and a mere assistant couldn't just ruin it. “I am

  • Mars’ Extreme Reaction

    The office went completely silent, as Chris looked straight at Mars. At the same time, Walker looked nervous and quickly sat up.“Don’t worry, Chris. I will do it. Mars here has an issue with talking and he won't be able to do it.” Walker rushed to get the proposal documents they had prepared. “Is that so?” Chris asked, looking at Mars intently and Mars never for once took his eyes off Chris too. It was like they had a staring contest which ticked Chris off the wrong way. “Hey, Mars!” Walker called, interrupting the staring competition. “Come help me.”Mars nodded before standing up and Chris was finally able to concentrate. However, through the proposal meeting, Mars was all quiet, silently giving everything Walker needed. And by the end of everything, he looked like a zombie, just moving around and being told what to do. Even though it wasn't an abnormal situation, Chris found it odd. “So, what do you think?” Walker asked, his eyes glistening with expectations. “It’s good. I wi

    Five days later…Chris sat at his desk, right in the CEO’s office, however, he was staring into space. Too much time had passed and Baron was still being held in custody and the police was still looking for him. He had expected Gerald to reach out to him by now but nothing was happening. “Boss…” Rico Axe walked in, with a serious expression. “Is there any news from the Rice family?” He asked. “No.” Rico shook his head. “However, there is another important news.” Immediately, Chris perked up, raising his brows in question. “Mike was arrested after the evidence that was released but Reid is still nowhere to be found. His last location was a warehouse but we still cannot find him yet.” Rico Axe explained, looking a bit worried. “Really?” Chris raises his brows again. He had almost forgotten that people like Mike and Reid existed because he thought he was done with that chapter. He now recalled that Reid was supposed to pay him 36 million dollars because of the car he wrecked. “Did

  • Destroy Him!

    “Master?” Reid scoffed, even though he was weak. He felt the masked man’s words before him were laughable and he struggled to sit up on the chair while still tied. He wiped the side of his face where blood was and continued to speak “Who still does master and servant in this day and age? You may be a minion to someone, but it doesn't mean–”Pak!That slap came unexpectedly and it swept Reid off the chair again. This time, the rope used to tie him broke and he became free. However, before he could even begin to escape, Gerald stepped forward. He had a rod in hand and in the next second, he swung it straight at his head. “Ahhh…” Reid gasped, his body shook in pain and he held his head. “You…” He couldn't speak anymore because as the second passed by, Gerald continued to hit him. Bang!Bang!!Continuous beatings resounded in the room and soon, Reid lay on the floor, almost lifeless. His body was bloodied and his eyes were dizzy. At that moment, Gerald took off his mask but Reid co

  • Your New Master And Lord

    In the Rice family mansion…Chase was pacing up and down before the patriarch's study room and his gaze was filled with turmoil. He had no way of breaking the news to Gerald that something had gone wrong with Baron. The patriarch had given him a chance to live and prove himself before and now, he was afraid he was going to be gunned down immediately. “If you keep pacing out there, I will think you are hiding something from me, Chase.” Gerald’s voice rang out in the corridor and his head snapped up to look at the camera which was above the door. The patriarch could see every one of his movements and now, he realized he had no choice but to go in. And when he did, he walked carefully toward the partition in the study and he had to close his eyes in preparation for whatever he was going to see behind the partition. “My lord…” Chase went in with a bow and slowly looked up at Gerald. However, he was quick to look down again because the patriarch’s face looked unsightly, like dead skin

  • The Shareholders Saga

    “Is there anyone else who wants to join him?” Chris’ voice boomed through the meeting room and his eyes zeroed in on the other shareholders who had lost their shares. They all went quiet, afraid that Chris was going to throw them out. “Good.” Chris nodded, in satisfaction, seeing that none of them dared to speak up again. “Now, let’s begin.” “Can we start, father?” He asked. “Yes.” Jones perked up immediately. He looked at them all with a serious gaze, “Your bad planning of selling the shares is not my son’s fault.”“However, we are working on finding who the unknown buyer is.” Jones tried to calm their minds. “If you find this buyer, Chairman, are we going to get our shares back? We made mistakes and we want to retrace our steps.” Some of them asked, anxious that they may never get the chance to sit at that meeting anymore. “We have to know who bought it.” They declared! Chris sat there, watching the commotion. If he should reveal that he bought it, he couldn't decipher how ex
