Chris stared at his phone for a few seconds, blinking his eyes rapidly to understand what went on just now. But nothing came to his head. Why did Mia hate so much all of a sudden?Immediately, he tried to call her again but then the call didn't go through at all. At the same time, he thought of calling butler Steve to check on her but then Steve’s phone wasn't going through. Just like his father’s wasn't going through. They had all blocked all sorts of communication and he felt miserable. His heart was pounding in fear for Mia. He sat on his bed, trying to know what next to do when there was a knock on the door. Chris looked up to see that it was Rico and he stood up, seeing the deep frown on Rico’s face. “What’s wrong?” Chris asked. “Ria. Is she here?” Rico asked, looking all around the room. “No.” Chris shook his head. “Didn't she come home before us?”“Yes, she did. But I instructed the maids to go check on her and give her food and whatever she might need but she is nowhere i
Rise Of The Billionaire Son Insult
Chris took a deep breath, as he watched Genie smirking at him, proudly. She seemed to have the upper hand because she had Ria with her and he couldn't fight her else Ria might get hurt. And with nothing else to do, he nodded at her. “Lead the way.” He gestured at her. “That’s what I thought, CEO.” She smiled, looking at Chris from top to bottom with a sassy look. But as soon as she turned around, he immediately took out his phone and started to text Rico. But at the same time, Genie turned around and directly slapped the phone off his hands. “No phones!” She yelled as his phone flew across the large clubhouse. It landed where he didn't even know and Chris glared angrily at her. “Are you out of your mind? What have you done?” He yelled, dragging the attention of some people around. He then swiped his fingers in his hair due to frustration and was about to lunge into the crowd of people to find his phone. But Genie was quick to stop him. “You don’t have much time left. Do you k
Rise Of The Billionaire Son Six Months
Chris realized that the masked man wanted to see him, not because there was a new revolution going on but because he wasn't threatened the slightest bit. He wanted to see just how weak Chris was and it pissed him off so bad. He took deep breaths, aiming to calm himself and soon he walked out of the private area and back into the elevator. This meeting with the masked man was sudden and Chris wondered if all this was planned because Ria appeared at the club or not. As he got out of the elevator, he walked mindlessly into the crowd of people, and just at this moment, he felt a tap on the back. His head snapped around with a sharp gaze, thinking it was Genie or someone else trying to play games on him. But then he saw that it was Ria. “Where have been?” She asked. However, Chris didn't bother to reply to her, he caught her by the hand and started to drag her out. Her feet stumbled against the crowd and his grip tightened as he walked. He was very angry at Ria, feeling like he got
Rise Of The Billionaire Son Stay Right There
The next morning… “When are we leaving today?” Chris asked as soon as Butler Rico walked into his room. “As soon as you are ready,” Rico said, still excited from last night's determination. “The Ricos are ready anytime.” “Get the car ready,” Chris instructed as he got into the bathroom, took a shower and soon he was done. By this time, Ria was already awake too, and as she saw that Chris and the butler were preparing to leave, she frowned. “Are you both going somewhere without me?” Ria asked, with a frown. “It’s the weekend. You don’t have to work overtime, why are you dressed like someone who has to leave for work?” Chris sighed, he never thought Ria would be such a hassle. “I have something to do at the office.” Chris lied. “Just stay home and we will be back soon.” He turned away from her before Ria could say anything. He nodded at the butler to lead the way and they both didn't see the angry expression on Ria’s face. She was vexed that they were leaving without her again,
Rise Of The Billionaire Son The Dungeon
Ria opened her mouth to speak but she couldn't form any words. The way Chris had sounded so panicked and urgent made her think something fishy was up. He had told her to stay right where she was and she wasn't sure if he was near her or not. “Miss Ria…” Dan called out again, bringing her to her senses. “You can get out of the car now.”“Uhmm…no.” She shook her head. “I think I'll stay in the car.” Dan frowned, not liking the sound of that. That wasn't how he had planned this and he took a few moments to think, and seeing the way Ria was so resolute, he put his hand on the doorknob, wanting to open the door. “What are you doing?” Ria was shocked, immediately locking the door with the speed of light. “You have to get down, Miss Ria! I brought you here, shouldn't you be grateful?” Dan asked, glaring at her as he started to bang on the door. Ria started to panic, looking around to check if Chris was coming for her. She started to blame and chastise herself for following Dan to this
Rise Of The Billionaire Son Chris’ Wicked Look
Chris took a deep breath, staring at the rows of cells with heavy breaths. He had not seen a thing like this before but then he knew that this was the mafia and there was no escaping. Ria was shaken by his side and he turned to her, “You can stay here while we go in.”However, Rico interjected, “No. She will go in too.” The resolute look in his eyes was evident and he stared down at Ria, “You are staying. You wanted to be here so bad, right?”Ria pursed her lips, her eyes roaming around in fear. She looked to Chris for help but he seemed like he was in accordance with Rico’s words. And then she started to wonder if she had shot herself in the foot. She realized what they were hiding from her and she regretted being so curious and impatient. Now, she was roped into something she couldn't explain, and at the back of her mind, she knew that this was a dangerous part of Chris’ life and maybe her life too. “I will go in.” She nodded finally and soon, they all filed in. Chris and Ria too
Rise Of The Billionaire Son Mashed Potatoes
“Ahhh…” Ria let out a loud scream immediately after the gun was pointed at her. Her body drummed with horror and she took several steps back. But then she landed in a puddle of blood that splattered all over. “You had a choice, Ria. You wanted to be here so bad. And now you are. Don’t back out.” Rico warned. “Otherwise, we have no choice but to do away with you.”“No… no…” Ria shook her head and then looked at Chris with a pleading expression. “Please, stop him. I don’t want to die.”On the other hand, Chris was calm even with the gun pointed at Ria. He knew that Rico wouldn't pull the trigger because there were a lot of things involved if Ria died. Rico was just doing that to scare her. “There is nothing I can do, Ria.” Chris shrugged. “It’s either you get in here, or…” His eyes traveled to the gun and back to her. She got the message immediately and the fear and shock in her body doubled.Chris was dumping her! Letting her be threatened! She couldn't believe it! She saved him! And
Rise Of The Billionaire Son Dan’s Truth
“Let him go.” Chris waved his hand nonchalantly, and immediately Axe took a step backward. All eyes were on Dan Troy and they waited a few more minutes for him to finally stop shaking. “You better start talking.” Axe waved the nutcracker in his hand threateningly and Dan quickly nodded. “I will speak,” Dan said and Chris folded his hands behind his back. “I work for The Reds.” Dan began and his words didn't come as a surprise to them but only to Ria who was confused. She heard about The Reds from Genie that day in the parking lot and now she started to wonder if they were dangerous too. “But… a mishap happened and I have been trying to get away from them. The leader of The Reds will definitely punish me later and I have to save myself before he gets to me.” Dan suddenly looked scared, his eyes flickering from Axe to Chris. “I need help, please.” He pleaded. However, none of them were fazed and Chris spoke up, “What mishap happened? What did you do?”“I.. I…” Dan started to shake

Finally Free
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
Explanation
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
Meeting Mia
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
Moved By Mia
“Mia, is everything ready?” Mia heard a thick voice, coming straight from outside her door. She sat before the mirror with a weary look on her face, as if she was going to fall apart any second from that moment. However, she mustered up the courage to reply. “Yes, mother. Everything is ready.” She said, her tone croaked and heavy. In the next second, she heard receding footsteps and she knew she was alone in the house for now. As she stood up to her feet, she slightly kicked the mirror and it fell straight toward her. Mia took a step back, not fazed by the sharp sound of the shattering mirror and the glass shards that pierced her skin. She just didn't want to see herself in the mirror anymore. She was a shadow of herself after the incident on the rooftop. She lied against Chris and even with all that she did, she didn't get what she wanted. Her family which she tried to save were now packing out of their home. They lost their business since Reid and his friends didn't keep their e
Landing
Three days later…Chris was done with the project he was handling and as he successfully launched it, he handed the rest of the work over to butler Rico. At this point, he was at the rooftop of the company building and Butler Rico had a blank look on his face. But the way he was so stiff, made his emotions very obvious. “You can come visit sometime soon…” Chris patted his shoulders. Behind him was Ria, who looked around warily, hoping all this wasn't a setup. She couldn't believe that she was finally going home! But at the back of her mind, she wondered if Chris really wanted to give her freedom or subject her to even more misery. She could see now that there was no escaping from him and she had to do whatever she could to make him cast his merciful eyes on her. “Goodbye…” Chris whispered to butler Rico. He turned around to get into the plane, while the other Ricos followed after him. Ria was the last to board the plane. As soon as they took off, Chris called out to her, “Ria, do
Death Is Freedom
Ria’s lips quivered at the sound of Chris’s voice and his choice of words. Her eyes looked away from him with an embarrassed look as she bowed her head in shame. “What… what are you saying?” She whispered, trying to act clueless. For the past grueling hours she had spent in the cell, she had been hoping Chris wouldn't gain access to her phone but now, she wasn't sure if he had. The way he looked at her, showed irritation and dislike. She had worked so hard to be close to him, so he could look at her and not Mia. But she ended up ruining everything when she fell into Mateo’s trap. No matter how she wanted to be with Chris, she chose herself at that moment. And now, she regretted it. When Chris had spared her life, she thought she could have a second chance at her life and so, she contacted Reid, Ren, and Mike with a hidden phone she had for years. But everything seemed to have backfired! She felt torn. Now, she was waiting on Chris’ verdict. “You know what I am saying…” Chris sn
I Am Leaving
One day later…“Why are you so enthusiastic today? You didn’t want to see me anytime soon.” Victoria smiled as she walked into the shooting range with a playful look. “Also, you are still injured.”“I am leaving,” Chris responded, adjusting his stance due to his injury.“But that doesn’t mean you have to overwork yourself, you still have to manage a project, don’t you?” Victoria wasn’t surprised that Chris was leaving, she was only worried about him stressing. However, Chris had a question for her. “Why does my father want me back home?” He asked. This was the same way he was told to leave home, without a clue of whatever he was going to do back at home. And now, the same was happening. “I think you should ask him–”“Do you think he is going to tell me?” I cut her off, irritatedly. “No.” She shook her head. “I shouldn't be blamed for that though.”“Yes. But you know why! I need to know too. Don’t keep me in the dark.” Chris was pleading with his eyes. Somehow, he seemed to suspec
Fierce
“What?” Chris’ frown turned even deeper as Rico placed a few documents on his table. He stared at the documents for a long while before taking them up as he was scared that he would find something that would shatter his mind and heart even further.What did Butler Rico mean by saying Ria betrayed him from the start? He couldn’t wrap his head around it as Chris wondered whether it all started back at his home. Was it when he met Ria at first at the party? Or was it when she obsessively wanted to associate with him? Either way, he would only find out when he finally checked the document.And as soon as Chris laid his eyes on the contents of the documents, he looked shocked, and his mind blew up in disbelief. His eyes scanned through several chats between three different people Ria had been in contact with. None of them was Mateo, but they were Reid, Ren, and Mike.Ria was in close contact with them and it seemed she had the old phone ever since with her and one peculiar chat caught Chri
From The Start
Immediately, Chris knew he needed to speak to Ria about what the hell she was planning this time. She never learned her lessons and a part of him started to regret why he spared her life. As soon as he got down from the bed, he winced in pain due to the bullet wounds. At the same time, Rico walked in with a frown. “You need to take a rest.” He cautioned Chris however, Chris shook his head and attempted to walk past him. “I need to speak to Ria. That bitch…” Chris cursed but Rico held him back. “I knocked her out…” He said. “She wouldn't stop trashing and trying to attack me…” He explained what happened and Chris finally calmed down. He slowly walked back to the bed, taking deep breaths to calm himself. On the other hand, Butler Rico calmly waited for Chris to explain his outburst. “Ria is in contact with the bastard working with Mateo.” Chris dropped the bomb but Rico wasn't surprised, his frown only deepened. “How sure are you?” Rico asked. Quickly, Chris requested his phone
