“No…” Chris shook his head. “I don’t care whether you think I am wearing a fake or not. I have nothing to prove to you.”

“Now, get lost.” Chris pushed Shantel’s hand away and was about to leave but Ria quickly stood in his way.

“But I care,” Ria said, folding her hands. She stared down at him, her stance looked intimidating.

“And who are you?” He asked, looking straight at her. Ria was quite surprised he wasn't intimidated by her and she felt even more intrigued.

“I am Ria McQueen. Alexander, the owner of the Queen’s brand is my brother.” She introduced herself, proudly.

“Ohh…” Chris chuckled. He realized why she was so concerned about his clothes.

“I just need to check your sleeves to know whether your clothes are fake or not. If they are, I am going to personally sue you for soiling my brother’s brand.” Ria declared, her eyes flashing with a wicked glint.

“Yes! Sue him!” Shantel had not gotten over the embarrassment she was facing from both Ria and Chris and she wanted nothing

    “Are you sure about that?” Mia asked, feeling a bit scared for Chris. “It's okay.” He shrugged. Ria took this as the cue to call her brother and she did. The phone rang and on the second ring, the call connected. It was on speaker phone but then Ria didn't let her brother know it was. “Hi, Big brother…” Ria smiled as she greeted her brother. “Yes, Ria. Are you okay? Do you need some money?” Alexander asked, his tone caring. The other people looked at Ria with envious gazes, especially Shantel. Ria had parents and a brother who was ready to spend on her, yet their families were rocky even though they had wealth. “No, bro. But if you want to send me some. You can.” Ria chuckled. Mia couldn't help but roll her eyes and she just wanted to shout at Ria to go straight to the point. “Alright. Is there anything else?” Alexander asked. “Yes, big bro. There is someone named Chris here…” Ria watched Chris for any change of expression but there was nothing. So, she continued, “He claims h

    “Where did you get those clothes from?” Mia asked, tapping her feet on the floor as Chris got out of the restroom. “Do you think I stole it too?” Chris chuckled. “Huh?” Mia didn't know what to say. “Uhm… I...” She then sighed. “What do you want me to think? I know you don’t steal but what is more baffling is how you got in touch with Alexander McQueen. How did you do that?” She asked. “I just did.” Chris shrugged. “It's not a big deal.” He cleaned off the last residue of wine on his clothes. With his clothes soiled, he just wanted to go back home but he couldn't leave yet.He had not even presented his gift to Mia yet. It was still in his car with his driver. “Then how did you get the money?” Mia didn't let go of the issue. “I am not trying to insult but then you and I know you don’t have that much money to buy luxury clothes.”“I am just concerned for you, Chris. I hope you don’t go down the wrong way in a bid to impress me or anyone else.” Her eyes were questioning him. “You d

    The table went silent and all eyes were on Chris. They saw nothing with him and they immediately felt like he was just leeching off Mia since he didn't bring anything. This time, Mike chipped in, “But then, do you expect him to get something after he must have used all his life savings to bail himself out today?” At his words, there was a round of mocking laughter at the table. “Oh, Chris. How was prison?” A guy at the table asked. “Should we consider you an ex-convict now?” “Ex-convict Chris.” Somebody called out to him and they all burst out laughing again. “This is not fair!” Mia cut them off, her hand fisting on her thighs. She then glared at Mike and Melissa. “What makes you think Chris didn't get anything for me? Why are you attacking him? Is it because of what happened today?” Mia was sure he did though because he told her. “Of course, he didn’t.” Melissa chuckled. “Did you see anything on him?” “And if you want to talk about what happened today, not here, please. I sti

    The table went silent, all eyes moved from Chris to Mike but they still didn't make sense of why the waiter was asking for Chris. “Chris Westminster?” One of the girls gasped. She glared and the waiter, and then pointed at Mike, “Does he look like a pauper to you?” “I.. I.. Don’t know.” The waiter shook her head. “But I was asked to deliver this to Chris Westminster. If he is not Chris, then I can’t give it to him.” “What? Do you mean Chris ordered this?” Melissa shot up to her feet, in disbelief. “Yes, ma’am. The person who delivered this showed me a picture of Chris and you sir…” She pointed to Mike. “…you do not look like him.”“Wow... Unbelievable…” The girls gasped in shock and started to pull away from Mike. Chris who was still on his feet called out to the waiter, “Bring it here. I am Chris.” “Yes. It's you.” The waiter gasped, with a nod. An uncomfortable silence was heavy in the air. Everyone looked at Mike whose face had gone ashen. The waiter then pulled the gift b

    Chris was polite and Ria couldn't do anything to stop him. He actually had no reason to reject Ria but then it was a bit uncomfortable for him to just accept her demands. He met her for the first time they day, and while Ria didn't seem to be poor and after his money, he knew he had to be careful. Ria watched Chris walk up to Mia and kiss her goodbye. She was seething in anger, not knowing why he turned her down that way. What was he in a hurry to do anyway? As she watched Chris walk out with Mia, she didn't want to be left out. But what she did, was to take out her phone and she called her brother, Alexander. He picked up on the first ring. She said, quickly, “Big brother, is there a way you can invite Chris to the house?”“Why?” Alexander was confused. “You will know very soon.” She replied and then coaxed him into acceptance. He did and she ended the call. By that time, Chris had already been out of the event hall with Mia seeing him off. “You are going to the parking lot? Di

    Later that morning.“Young Master!!” There was a banging sound on Chris’ door as he rolled on the bed. Slowly, he opened his eyes trying to make sense of why someone was trying to wake him up so early.He was so tired from last night’s party since he got back home way past midnight. In his sleepwear, he stood up from the bed groggily and went to open the door only to see Bulter Steve. “Uncle, what is it? It's not time for school yet, is it?” Chris groaned, in displeasure. He looked back at the clock by his bedside to see that it was just a little past 6 am. “I am sorry, Young Master but this is urgent.” Steve looked very serious. “What?” Chris asked, spotting a stash of papers in Steve’s hand. “A court summon was delivered to the old house. It's concerning a car accident that occurred at midnight. Did you happen to cause any? They are suing you for deliberating causing the accident which caused them injuries.” Steve looked very worried. “Car accident?” Chris was surprised. He he

  • Rise Of The Billionaire Son    Biggest Offender

    The drive to school was short and no one knew Chris had even arrived in school since he drove in his car. As he drove past the school gate, there were a bunch of students standing outside waiting for him, clamoring to see the school’s biggest offender because he was one now. Among those students, Mia was there too, probably waiting for him to pass by. However, he didn't wait to talk to her, he drove straight to his designated part of the school but made sure to let Mia know that he had arrived. He waited in his car until she got to him and knocked on the car window. Chris slowly wound down the window and smiled at her. “You own this car too?” Mia gasped. “Yes, I do…” Chris nodded. “And many more.” He winked at her. In the next second, he got out of the car with his backpack, and a few minutes later, they walked toward the class together. Mia didn't question him further because she knew Chris would give her the same answer he gave yesterday. “What are you going to do with Mike a

    Melissa’s appearance was sharp and abrupt, and as Chris’ face swung to the side, the whole class gasped in shock. The pain that shot through his face was massive but he was calm, as he wiped the blood from his lips with a swipe of his tongue. He had to control himself not to hit Melissa but someone else jumped in, in his defence. Mia rushed toward him, asking if he was okay. However, Melissa rushed forward and pushed Mia. “Why are you asking if he is okay? Don’t you see what he did to Mike?” Melissa screamed. “What are you saying?” Mia spat back. “Mike was the one who came at Chris. You are acting up like a perfect girlfriend when the reason why you are with Mike in the first place is because of his fucking money.”“Woahhh…” The others let out booing noises and they started to point fingers at Melissa, calling her a good digger.“And so what? Mike has the money this bastard here doesn't have.” Melissa screamed, her face turning red. “Oh, is that why he bought the cheap jewelry he

  • 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

  • Connected To The Enemy

    Immediately, the air turned tense and suffocated not only Ria but also Chris. He looked at the device that had fallen from her pockets, with so much curiosity. It was a phone, one that she wasn't supposed to have. Ria let out a shaky breath as she looked at Chris with a pleading expression. “I can explain.” She whispered. She tried to free herself from Rico’s grip but he held onto her tighter. Chris looked disappointed and curious as to why she had a phone in her hands when she wasn't supposed to have one. “Right…explain…” He nodded at her, while he folded his arms. He signaled for Rico to let her go and Ria fell to her knees, her head bowed slightly. However, for a few more minutes, she kept shaking on the floor. “Speak!” Chris thundered. Ria flinched and raised her head hesitantly to look at him. However, with his eyes blazing with fury, she looked down, unable to speak. Chris let out a sigh as he wasn't going to force her to speak. He signaled at Rico, telling him to take her

  • Ria’s Stubborness

    “Get the doctor!” Rico yelled at Ria who still stood frozen in shock. Immediately, Rico’s voice jokyed her back to reality and she followed after them worriedly. She looked haggard from having to work for hours and having little to no rest. Her body was starting to fail her and she had never been made to work so much like this. However, with her still alive, she hoped Chris would one day forgive her. But then, would he? When he finally realized everything she did behind his back. She didn't just become a traitor overnight. Ria rushed to get the standby doctor who worked at the base and they quickly rushed to check on Chris. “His wounds are festering…” The doctor complained, as he took out the blood-soaked bandages and cleaned the wounds. “Also, he needs a lot of rest to replenish the blood he lost. At this rate, if he doesn't slow down, he might turn anemic.”The doctor complained as he knew that over the past few weeks, Chris had made the infirmary his second home. The training h
