Rise Of The Disrespected Trillionaire Heir ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTEEN — SURPRISE REUNION
Luke hurriedly made his way to his car and slammed the door. The feeling of heat and suffocation swamped him all of a sudden. Rage shot through his veins as he wrestled to take off his tie.When he was finally able to take the offending piece of material off, he flung it out the window and it landed on the event centre’s parking lot.He balled his fingers into fists and forced himself to remain quiet when all he wanted to do was scream the whole world to the ground.After five full minutes of venting alone, to his surprise, the driver’s door was suddenly pulled open and John climbed into the car.Luke lowered his head and tried to put himself back together but John only nodded understandably and said;“Where to, sir? Shall I take you to a place where you can just relax and enjoy some fresh air? The beach, maybe?”It was on the tip of Luke’s tongue to reject the offer. He had guests to tend to inside after all. Going to the beach would mean abandoning his own wedding party. He shook
Rise Of The Disrespected Trillionaire Heir ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN – HUMILIATION
Luke returned to a very silent house at exactly nine thirty the next morning. He didn’t know why, but the moment he walked through his front door, he knew something was wrong. Something was horribly wrong.The first person he ran into was Mrs. Medley, his housekeeper. The moment she saw him, she lowered her gaze and bowed slightly.Odd, Luke thought.“Good morning, sir.”“Good morning, Mrs. Medley.”Luke couldn’t help but notice that instead of leaving, as was expected, the woman hovered in the background. She also looked really nervous.No longer able to stand her discomfiting behaviour, he turned and asked her.“Is something wrong, Mrs Medley? Is there something you’d like to talk about?”She stepped back, her eyes widening in surprise and guilt.“No. Of course not. Everything is absolutely fine. Lord George is waiting for you in the lounge.”Luke wanted to ask her why his grandfather was waiting for him but she’d already disappeared down the hall.Something was wrong. He could feel
Rise Of The Disrespected Trillionaire Heir ONE HUNDRED AND NINETEEN — CONFRONTATION
“What exactly did you intend to do, Mrs. Carmichael?” Luke asked, stalking in her direction. “Did you honestly think you could turn my grandfather against me? Did you think he’ll reprimand me and take your side?”Mrs Carmichael edged backwards as Luke came forward, his eyes flashing with rage.“I have no idea what you’re talking about. Stay away from me.”Luke paused and stared at her through hooded eyes. He almost let it out that he knew she’d planned his kidnapping as a means of planting her daughter in the George mansion.He almost stomped to his grandfather’s room to inform him of his findings, but he forcefully held himself back. Everything will come out in due time. For now, he gave them a menacing glare.“Be rest assured that I know your games. I’m well versed with the twisted, evil minds of the Carmichaels. You both should better watch your backs.Oh, and if I find out that your family is responsible for the news that’s currently spreading in any way, I’ll make sure you pay
Rise Of The Disrespected Trillionaire Heir ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY – BUSINESS DEALS
EARLIER THAT MORNING…Thirty minutes after the showdown with his grandfather and the Carmichaels at the lounge, Luke was dressed and ready to leave for work.He desperately wanted to see his grandfather before he left for the office but he’d already put the old man in a bad mood due to his cheating scandal so he decided to hold off until after work.Just as he was about to step out of the main door, he heard someone call his name.“Luke!”Immediate recognizing the voice, Luke turned and his heart swelled with joy when he saw his grandfather hobbling towards him. “Were you just about to leave without saying goodbye to me?”Luke was so choked with relief that he could barely speak. “I thought… I thought you were upset with me, grandpa.”Lord George waved his hand dismissively. “Of course I’m upset. That doesn’t mean you should leave without saying goodbye.”Luke smiled and nodded. “Thank you, grandpa.”“What exactly are you thanking me for? I came here to relay some very important n
Rise Of The Disrespected Trillionaire Heir ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY ONE – THREATS
Luke watched as the Minister exited his office, his mind still reeling from the sudden turn of events.He sank into his chair and looked up to the ceiling, already imagining all the horrible ways his grandfather would have expressed his disappointment if he hadn’t landed the deal.He was completely lost in thought when he sensed movements right in front him. He shot upwards immediately and managed to push Fiona away just in the nick of time, stopping her from sitting on his lap.“Ow, Luke!” She moaned as she tried to regain her balance. “You hurt me!”Luke rolled his eyes to the heavens. He could already feel his annoyance start to build.“You and I both know I didn’t push you that hard. And what the hell were you trying to do?”She pouted and folded her arms like a spoilt little brat.“I just wanted to sit on my husband’s lap. Am I wrong for wanting to do that?”He stared at her incredulously.“You are, Fiona. You’re very wrong. Just in case you’re not aware, there’s a strict no touc
Rise Of The Disrespected Trillionaire Heir ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY TWO – SHOCKED, NOT SHOCKED
Luke shot to his feet and paced his office with his cellphone clutched so tightly in his palm, it nearly cracked. “If you know who did it, spill the tea already, Detective. The suspense is killing me.”“Okay, sir. I resumed my investigation yesterday by going straight to the website which first carried the news. After a few hours of throwing my weight around and asking questions, I finally discovered that a website called: Entertainment Gists Weekly was the first to publish the story at exactly ten PM yesterday.I requested a meeting with its manager but he refused to meet me. I finally had to use my badge as leverage before he could grant me an interview. That interview was via conference call and just from looking at him, the man was already shaking in his boots.I could tell that he was scared, so I promised him protection. I assured him that once he gave me the perpetrator’s name, he’ll be under your special protection.Thirty minutes later, he finally caved and gave me what I w
Rise Of The Disrespected Trillionaire Heir 123 – THE ATTACK
Luke froze for a moment, completely astounded as he listened to McGregor go on and on about Fiona and the Hemsworths.His already accelerating heartbeat pounded even faster and he clenched his fingers tightly by his side, trying to quell the urge to throw something across the room.“How the fuck was Humsworth released on bail?” He finally asked, already feeling murderous. “His trial is not over yet. Why was he released?”“I don’t know why or how he was released, sir, but I suspect that Fiona’s father had a hand in it. We’re all aware that he and Humsworth are very good friends. I think he meandered somehow and got him out.”Rage shot through Luke’s bloodstream like a missile.“Fuck!” He growled as he shoved his fingers through his hair.“There’s no fucking way that criminal was released after all the evidence we presented in court. I’m going to haul his arse back to jail myself.”McGregor paused. “How do you intend to do that, your lordship?”Luke finally pulled himself together and
Rise Of The Disrespected Trillionaire Heir 124 – THE CONFRONTATION
Luke sank his fingers into his hair and pulled… hard.He couldn’t believe what he’d just heard. The possibility that it could even be true was even more alarming. “When David Humsworth was in prison, at least we were certain that she was working alone. Now, I’m not so sure.”Luke turned to McGregor.“What do you mean, detective?”“I mean that David Humsworth could be involved in all of this. Maybe he was the guy who tried to go after Nina today.”Luke shook his head and leaned against the windows.“I don’t think so. David Humsworth has a slim build. The guy from today had a bit of muscle. I could feel it when I grabbed him.”MCGregor shrugged and got to his feet.“I need to go now, your lordship. I’ll keep an eye on the Humsworth family like you asked.”Luke nodded.“Appoint one of your men to take up responsibility as Nina’s bodyguard until this blows over. I don’t want to take any chances.”***THE HUMSWORTHS MANSIONLater that day, Mr. Humsworth and his son were having an animated
