Sierra leaned back in her seat, a smile lingering on her face. “Elijah? What’s with the sudden call?” she asked teasingly. “I’m running some errands. What about you?”“I just finished eating what I cooked,” Elijah said casually, his voice carrying a hint of pride.“You cooked?” Sierra asked, her tone skeptical. “What did you cook?”“Scrambled eggs with herbs, crispy bacon, toast, and fresh orange juice,” Elijah replied confidently.Sierra laughed softly. “I can already taste how awful it must be.”“What do you mean?” Elijah frowned, clearly offended. “I’m the best at cooking, Sierra. You don’t know what you’re missing.”“You, the best?” Sierra teased. “I highly doubt that. If your cooking is as good as your bragging, it’s probably a disaster.”Elijah chuckled, shaking his head. “One day, I’ll cook for you, and you’ll have to eat your words.”“We’ll see about that,” Sierra said, her voice playful.After a brief pause, Elijah shifted the conversation. “By the way, it’s been a while sinc

Sierra looked at the car that had collided with hers—a sleek, upgraded 2024 Fiat 500, its shiny front completely wrecked from the impact. Her eyes narrowed as she tried to process the situation. If Elijah had been there, he would have been utterly shocked, because stepping out of the Fiat was none other than Sophia Bennett—his ex-girlfriend. Sophia had also been out running errands and hadn’t expected her day to take such a turn. The door of her car swung open, and she stepped out. She glanced at the front of her car, her expression instantly souring as she took in the crumpled hood and smashed headlights. Instead of offering an apology, Sophia’s eyes flicked to Sierra and narrowed. Her lips curled into a sneer. “Are you blind?” she snapped, her tone dripping with accusation. “Who parks like that in the middle of the road?” Sierra, already shaken by the crash, frowned, trying to keep her temper in check. “I wasn’t parked in the middle of the road,” she replied firmly. “I was slowing

After a few rings, the call connected. Damian’s voice came through the line, calm but slightly distracted. “Sophia? What’s going on? I’m in the office.”“Damian,” Sophia said sharply, her tone brimming with anger and urgency. “I need you to come here right now.”“What?” Damian asked, clearly confused. “I told you, I’m in the office. I can’t just leave work. What’s going on?”Sophia clenched her jaw, her frustration boiling over. “I don’t care if you’re in the office! I need you here. Some person just slapped me—slapped me!—and I can’t deal with this alone. You have to help me handle this!”Damian groaned audibly on the other end of the line. “Sophia, are you serious? I have meetings and reports to finish. I can’t just drop everything because someone slapped you.”Sophia’s voice rose, her fury palpable. “Yes, you can, Damian! You must! You’re my business partner, and you’ve always said you’d support me. Well, now’s the time to prove it. Get over here!”Damian sighed heavily, clearly ex

About twenty minutes later, the tension between Sierra and Sophia still lingered heavily in the air, drawing the occasional glance from passersby. The sound of a car engine cut through the chatter as a sleek 2024 Honda Accord pulled up to the scene, its glossy black finish reflecting the midday sun.The car came to a stop near Sophia’s Fiat, and the driver’s door opened. Damian stepped out, still dressed in his sharp office suit, his tie slightly loosened from the rushed drive. His expression was a mix of annoyance and curiosity as he surveyed the scene, his eyes darting to the damaged cars and the growing crowd.“Damian!” Sophia cried, her voice shifting from confident to pleading as she hurried toward him. “Thank God you’re here.”Damian’s brows furrowed as he adjusted his tie, his tone clipped. “Sophia, what is going on? You dragged me out of work for this?”Sophia gestured dramatically toward the wrecked cars, her voice rising. “This girl rammed into me and then had the audacity t
Rise Of The General's Forgotten Son Chapter 95
At that moment, Elijah hadn’t yet recognized Sophia or Damian as he approached the scene. His focus was on Sierra, the damaged cars, and ensuring she was okay. Similarly, neither Sierra, Sophia, nor Damian had realized it was Elijah walking toward them. The presence of the police officers beside him drew most of their attention, making Elijah’s identity temporarily overlooked.Sophia was too busy fretting over her car and Damian, and Damian was focused on trying to maintain his tough demeanor.Just then, Sierra noticed Elijah approaching, his calm demeanor instantly comforting her. A smile spread across her face as she stepped forward. “Elijah,” she called, her tone filled with relief. She started walking toward him.Hearing her, Damian and Sophia turned their heads in the same direction. The sight that met them left them stunned.“Gasp!” Sophia’s breath caught, and her body stiffened. Her eyes widened as she whispered, “Elijah Westbrook?” Her voice failed her for a moment, and she si

Sierra crossed her arms, her gaze cold as she looked at Damian. “This isn’t just about the money,” she said firmly. “It’s about her taking responsibility for her actions. She caused this and then tried to intimidate me instead of apologizing. You think throwing money at the problem will fix everything?”Damian swallowed hard, realizing he was losing control of the situation. “Look,” he said, his tone softening, “let’s not let this go any further. Whatever the cost, I’ll handle it. Just… let her go.”Elijah raised a hand, signaling the officers to pause. “Let her go,” he said calmly, his tone commanding but measured.The officers exchanged glances before nodding and releasing Sophia, who immediately stepped back, rubbing her wrists and glaring at Elijah and Sierra.Elijah’s attention shifted to Damian, his eyes cold and unyielding. “You want to settle this?” he asked, his voice sharp. “Fine. The cost for the damage is $25,000.”Damian’s jaw dropped, his face paling. “What?” he exclaime

Inside the Honda Accord, Damian gripped the steering wheel tightly, his knuckles turning white as he drove in silence. His jaw was clenched, and his frustration was palpable. The tension in the car was heavy, and Sophia could feel it radiating from him.After a moment, she glanced at him and said, “You seem annoyed.”Damian’s eyes flicked toward her briefly before returning to the road. “Of course, I’m annoyed,” he snapped. “Why wouldn’t I be? I just left the company in the middle of an important day to come here, only to end up blowing $25,000—just like that! Do you have any idea how ridiculous that is?”Sophia rolled her eyes, crossing her arms defensively. “You’re overreacting, Damian,” she said dismissively. “It’s not like I asked for this to happen. That girl was being completely unreasonable, and you’re acting like it’s all my fault.”“It is your fault, Sophia!” Damian shot back, his voice rising. “You’re the one who hit her car, and instead of handling it like an adult, you esc

Elijah held her gaze for a moment, his expression softening. The sincerity in her eyes touched something deep within him.He opened his mouth, wanting to ask, “What do you mean?” but as the words began to form, he hesitated. “What do y—” he said softly, stopping himself mid-sentence.Sierra noticed and turned to him, her brows furrowing slightly. “What?” she asked, her voice curious but gentle.Elijah shook his head, a faint smile crossing his lips. “Nothing,” he said, his tone lighter now. After a brief pause, he added, “I appreciate it. Really.”Sierra nodded, her own lips curling into a small, shy smile. She turned her gaze back to the road ahead, and Elijah did the same, his focus shifting fully to driving.Soon, Elijah pulled up in front of Sierra’s house. He stepped out and helped her bring the bags from the trunk, setting them down on the porch. As they stood there, he glanced at her with a small smile.“I’ll watch your live tonight,” he said warmly. “Your career is about to ch

The corner of Elijah’s lips lifted into a smirk. “Teasing you is so satisfying, boss.”Celestine sighed, shaking her head. “I don’t even know why I met you. I shouldn’t have. You’re always giving me one or two problems.” She exhaled deeply before looking at him again. “Are you available tomorrow?”“What time?” Elijah asked.“10 a.m. I have a meeting I want you to attend. I already told you about it yesterday,” Celestine reminded him.Elijah nodded. “I remember. Where exactly?”“Come here before 10, then we leave,” she said simply.“Alright, no problem then.” Elijah stretched slightly. “If that’s all, I’ll leave.”Celestine studied him for a moment before asking, “Do you want to eat anything?”“Anything like?” Elijah tilted his head.Celestine placed a call, and within moments, the chef walked over. “Madam,” the chef greeted respectfully.“What did you make tonight?” Celestine asked.The chef listed the dishes prepared, adding, “I just finished and was about to inform you.”Celestine t

"I... I..." Celestine stammered, her voice barely above a whisper."I what?" Elijah pressed, his gaze locked on hers, waiting.Celestine swallowed hard, finally exhaling. "I don't know what's wrong with me," she admitted. "Ever since that night... I keep thinking about it. About you. It doesn't make sense."Elijah's eyes darkened slightly with intrigue. "Thinking about me? How?"Celestine shifted under his intense gaze. "I just... I don’t understand it. I try to push it away, but it keeps coming back. And it’s frustrating." She took a deep breath. "I have my life figured out, Elijah. I don’t need distractions.”Elijah raised a brow, a smirk playing on his lips. "What did I do that I'm a distraction?"Celestine exhaled sharply. "You touched me that day, kept touching me, drawing me close... It was like a grade-one romance."Elijah's smirk deepened. "First time?"Celestine hesitated before nodding slightly, admitting the truth.Elijah tilted his head. "Didn't you just say you have a fia

Inside, Elijah was led into a grand, elegantly furnished living area. The bodyguard gestured toward a large, luxurious couch.“Please, have a seat. I’ll go call Ms. Valencia,” he said before turning to leave.Elijah nodded. “Alright.”As he settled into the plush couch, he let his gaze wander around the room. The décor was refined, exuding wealth and power. His eyes landed on a collection of framed photographs hanging on the wall.Most of them were of Celestine—striking, confident, and effortlessly beautiful in every shot. Some captured her at formal events, dressed in elegant gowns, while others were more casual, showcasing her poised yet commanding presence.Among them, a few stood out—photos of Celestine with her father, Marcellus Valencia. The two looked composed, their resemblance undeniable. Marcellus, with his authoritative aura, stood beside his daughter, who seemed every bit his equal in stature and presence.Elijah smirked slightly, leaning back on the couch, waiting for Cel

Elijah’s gaze flickered slightly as he spoke, “The donation? I’ll be in your office tomorrow so that we can speak about it. How about that?”“Alright, sir. I’ll expect you then,” Isla replied smoothly.With that, the call ended. Elijah lowered his phone, slipping it back into his pocket before walking back to Sierra.Elijah looked at her and asked, “So what’s the plan then?”“Should we swim?” Sierra suggested, tilting her head slightly.“Swim?” Elijah repeated before nodding. “That’s a good idea then.”“Also, tonight I’ll be going live from this side,” she added casually.Elijah nodded. “Without your equipment here, can you still?”She smiled. “Oh yeah, it’s just a normal live, not a singing live, so it’s fine. I can do it anywhere.”Elijah nodded again. “Alright then. Let me go get what I’ll use to swim.”She nodded as well and followed him inside to change.The car came to a halt in front of the police station, its doors swinging open as two officers stepped out. Damian was yanked o

Elijah raised a brow. Her house?“Your house? Tonight? What time?” he asked. He suddenly wished he had said he had plans—if he left, Sierra would be alone for the evening.“8 p.m. will be fine. Give me a call before then,” Celestine said.“Alright.” Elijah ended the call, slipping his phone back into his pocket. Then, he turned to Sierra.“I’m sorry, I might not be available for you tonight.”Sierra nodded and said, “I don’t have a problem. Are you going to meet someone?”Elijah nodded. “Yes, I didn’t expect a call, but…”“It’s fine.” Sierra smiled at him, her tone light. “I understand. Let’s just go and eat.”Elijah held her gaze for a moment before nodding. “Alright.”He then focused back on the road ahead as Sierra smoothly maneuvered the car toward a nearby restaurant. Elijah asked the drivers in the towing truck to join them as they ate together. Later they continued. Sophia reached home, her mind clouded with frustration and bitterness. As the cab pulled up to the gate, the se

"JUST DRIVE!" she snapped, her voice sharp and filled with frustration.The driver flinched, glancing at her through the mirror. "Uh, okay…" he muttered, clearly taken aback by her outburst.Meanwhile, in her luxurious office at Valencia Group, Celestine Valencia sat poised in front of her computer, immersed in drafting an important email.Her office was pristine, modern, and bathed in natural light from the towering windows behind her. Her dark brown hair was styled into a sleek, low ponytail, complementing the elegant yet powerful aura she exuded.Today, she wore a cream-colored silk blouse tucked into a fitted charcoal-gray pencil skirt that hugged her curves. A pair of diamond studs adorned her ears, subtle yet undeniably expensive.Even though she looked busy, there was one name ringing in her head. “Elijah.”The mere thought of his name sent an unexplainable tension through her body.And then, the memories came rushing back.His strong hands gripping her waist.The warmth of his

Outside, Elijah’s two newly purchased vehicles were already loaded onto a large towing truck, ready to follow them home. The sight of them neatly secured made Jacob even more pleased, knowing he had just closed a significant deal with a high-profile customer.Sierra twirled her Audi Q8 key in her fingers before unlocking the car and getting in. She adjusted her seat and buckled up while Elijah slid into the passenger seat, his usual composed demeanor in place.Just as Sierra placed her hands on the steering wheel, about to drive out, Elijah stopped her.“Wait,” he said, his voice smooth but firm. “Won’t you take some pictures?”Sierra blinked, caught off guard, before chuckling softly. “Oh… right! I should.” She stepped out of the car and pulled out her phone, taking a few pictures of herself standing beside her new Audi Q8. She made sure to capture different angles—some with the car door open, others with her hand on the wheel, and even a short video of the interior.Elijah leaned c

Elijah nodded. “If you love it, of course. Why not?” He then turned to Jacob. “How much is it?”Jacob smiled. “The 2024 Audi Q8 is priced at $78,000 for this fully loaded version. But since it’s you, young boss, I can offer a special deal—$75,000 with all the necessary paperwork handled immediately.”Sierra’s eyes widened slightly at the price, but she remained quiet, looking at Elijah to see his reaction.Elijah turned to Sierra. “Are you okay with the price?”Sierra looked at the car again, her fingers brushing over its sleek surface before nodding. “Yeah, I can afford it.”Jacob smiled. “Perfect!”As Sierra finalized her choice, Elijah continued strolling through the garage, his sharp eyes scanning the variety of luxury vehicles. He wasn’t in a rush, simply taking in the selection.Then, his gaze landed on a striking 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado—rugged yet refined, built for both city drives and tough terrains.
