Rise Of The Rightful Heir Name Unveiled
Laxus almost had his mouth open when he came out and he saw the caliber of people in the company’s hall.It was a large and gigantic hall with the biggest capacity that Laxus had ever seen, and it was beautifully decorated just for the occasion. “Please, let us all pay attention, because the CEO of this new company is about to make his first grand entrance,” the anchor of the party had said.Then there had been a still calmness.Laxus had stood in front of a wide curtain, not knowing what to expect, and as a result, he had been left with anticipation that rushed through his veins like adrenaline.“You can do this, Laxus,” Laxus had told himself firmly.Bowman already told him that the launching party would be aired live on the biggest and most popular TV channels and shows all over the entire country, and everyone would watch it just as it was happening. This was the biggest and hugest thing that had ever happened to Laxus. This feeling was completely new, because when he had worked
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Drastic Steps
Bowman arrived at the location that Dragon was waiting for him, and as soon as Dragon noticed Bowman’s presence, he got out of his car and joined Bowman in his. Then Bowman’s driver drove off.“You left the party,” Dragon observed.“I never planned to attend it,” Bowman answered strictly.Dragon was rarely ever surprised, because most times, he always knew that moves people were about to make before they made them, even Bowman, but he did not see this one coming at all. Dragon was not offended that Bowman did not tell him about this plan; Bowman did not tell Dragon everything to begin with. He was just taken aback.“That is strange,” Dragon stated. “Isn’t it your party as well?” Dragon asked.Bowman remained quiet; his mind was on the task they were going to carry out, and in situations like these, Bowman preferred to stay quiet, because it helped him stay focus on the task at hand. Also, it helped him stay calculative even though he trusted that Dragon had already put everything in p
Rise Of The Rightful Heir That One Guest
Laxus was not given the luxury of time to dwell in his shock for long, because the cheers of people around him reminded him of where he was and his responsibility.“Bowman has tricked me; the bloody old man,” Laxus cursed under his breath.Even after all he had said and tried as much as possible to stand firmly on what he wanted, Bowman still outsmarted him. He should have known that everything was too good to be true, but Laxus could not turn around in the midst of these people and turn everything down.He just couldn’t. “Congratulations, Laxus, this is such a big feat.”“This is more than anything we have seen in Las Vegas, and we have no doubt that it will thrive under your care.”“Laxus’s Distillery Cave; sounds like a fantastic name to me!”“For a startup company, this is absolutely mind-blowing. Congratulations, Mr. Laxus.”“Cheers to this big start, Laxus, and please know that we are always available to partner with you in any way possible.”A lot of those congratulatory words
Rise Of The Rightful Heir A Show For Infuriation
“Damn him!” Darwin barked as he angrily flung the remote and it hit the TV squarely, causing it to crack and go off instantly just the time when Abby was captured talking to Laxus with a sweet and suggestive smile on her face by the bloggers who were reporting live.For more than two hours, Darwin, Luther and Linnie had stood rooted in their spot and watching Laxus take on the world in a launch party. The anger oozing from Darwin emanated in the entire living room and it overpowered whatever emotions Luther and Linnie might have felt watching it.“I think you have destroyed the TV, dad,” Luther said.Darwin whirled around like a wounded monster and charged at Luther. “Are you daft or were you not watching the TV?!” Darwin asked Luther angrily, droplets of saliva flying from his mouth; he was extremely furious.“Well, that is not enough to destroy the TV, is it? It didn’t do anything wrong,” Luther said flippantly, making Darwin more aggravated.Linnie was certain that Darwin would hav

The party had ended and Laxus bid the last guest off as his exited the hall with his beloved wife.“Oh, damn,” Laxus said as he sat down on one of the seats in exhaustion.Since the party began, he had not had the chance to rest his feet, and now, he felt as though he could close his eyes and magically find himself on his bed. Laxus looked around the big hall and reflected on all that happened in the last three hours, and he could not help but feel a sense of exhilaration and fulfillment. At the same time, Laxus was eager to begin. He could barely wait until Monday which would begin with the rigorous task of conducting interviews and selecting his first staff members, but then again, he had the weekend to get a suitable apartment and settle into his new lifestyle.For Laxus, this was a new beginning for him.“Nice party tonight,” a female voice said, startling Laxus.Laxus turned abruptly, almost in fear, because he had thought that he was left alone and everyone had left, but as he t
Rise Of The Rightful Heir A Lifestyle Of Dread
“Whoever you are, come out and stop hiding in the shadows,” Laxus instructed, trying to put on bravado.He was alone now, and he did not even realize until now that the bright lights illuminating the aisle leading to the hall had been turned off, so the place was slightly dark.“Who is there?” Laxus asked again as he began to look around for something that could pass as a defensive tool.He had barely spent twenty-four hours in the premises and he was already being scared by only God knows who, but the last thing Laxus wanted to do was pose as a fearsome man.“You better come out and make yourself known right now or I will call the cops on you. Don’t think that I don’t have them on speed dial,” Laxus threatened with a lie. “This is my property, and I will not allow a riffraff make a nuisance here,” he added firmly.Then Bowman stepped out of the dark and entered the hall.“Christ, Bowman!” Laxus screamed out, holding his chest and releasing the breath he did not even know that he was
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Golden Boy
“Bowman, someone took a shot at my life last night,” Laxus told Bowman while he waited for the arrival of the agent that Bowman talked about.“You cannot be a businessman without enemies,” Bowman simply said.“But I did not have enemies or faced life threats when I worked at the Kinkaid Distillery Company,” Laxus said, pondering on what had happened.“That should tell you a lot,” Bowman said.“Hold on…does that mean that my family is the one behind this?” Laxus asked.In all honesty, he had never known antagonism and threat until he turned his back on his family. A few weeks ago, Linnie had shown up at his doorstep unannounced and he had been arrested right after that happened. Right now, Laxus could not think of anyone else that might want him harmed except his family, but would they be dangerous enough to want him dead?It was one thing to be set up by one’s own family, but murder? Laxus shuddered at the thought.“Listen, Laxus, I think you should focus more on getting your apartment
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Out Of Her League Now
Nessy busied herself with waiting tables, but her mind was not settled. Since she sent Laxus a voicemail about needing him, she neither got a response nor a call back, which made her worried. To Nessy, this was the second time that she was calling Laxus and he did not come to her aid. She had also noticed how subtly dismissive he had been towards her, but she had ignored the signs because she felt that because of what happened, they were friends.Last night, when Laxus did not show up, she had gone to his apartment after she closed from work, but then again, he hadn’t been home.“I just hope he is okay,” Nessy said to herself as she went about her work.She worried about Laxus because she liked him enough as her friend. When Mr. Henry employed her, Nessy just felt like Laxus was the only person that she connected with on a friendship level even though he gave her the cold shoulders. Something drew Nessy to Laxus; she could not explain it, and she could not control it either.After th

Honeymoon Suggestion
Laxus thought that his heart would explode with emotions with the way he was feeling deep inside, so much so that he simply sat on their bed when they arrived home later that evening.After the lawyer had read the will, he had handed the official keys to the mansion to Laxus and congratulated him on the inheritance. The small box would also have been given to Laxus, but they all knew that it was missing. All attempts to get necessary information about his upbringing and why his grandmother was particular about not wanting Darwin anywhere near the mansion had been impossible.The lawyer had left after his mission was accomplished, and Laxus had had to sit through a dinner party that he wasn’t really in the mood for. However, Nessy was such a good guest that Laxus’s mood did not ruin the purpose for the dinner.“I should have known that including a celebratory dinner alongside with the will reading would not work well, but I guess I didn’t put things into consideration much,” Bowman had
Firm Instructions
Laxus could not help the tears that flowed from his eyes. The entire study was quiet as everyone allowed Laxus to sob without interruption, which Laxus was very grateful for. In that moment, he was not ashamed to display vulnerability, and he wouldn’t even have been able to control it even if he had wanted to. His emotions were doing being a rollercoaster at the moment and a lot of things were running through his mind. Never in his wildest dreams would Laxus have thought that his grandmother would bequeath to him the biggest and oldest mansions in the entire city…and to think that he had neglected to look after it after her passing.The only thing that Laxus had been concerned about when she died was the grief and heaviness in his heart. He had never imagined that his granny was capable of dying, because even if she was clearly old, she was filled with love and life, so Laxus was extremely devastated when she had passed.The last thing that had been on his mind had been inheritance.
His Inheritance
On their way to Bowman’s mansion, as they sat at the back of the car, Laxus felt as though his tongue had been tied.He was still very embarrassed with his reaction about Nessy’s whereabouts. He had acted like a teenager who was scared that his mother had abandoned him, and worse, his voice had been frantic and loud enough that Nessy had heard him. Even though Nessy hadn’t said anything about it or reacted to it, Laxus had felt completely flushed. Fortunately for him, Nessy had simply accepted to go with him to Bowman’s, abandoning the breakfast that she had prepared for the both of them.“I am sorry that we couldn’t have the breakfast that you took time making,” Laxus eventually managed to break the ice. “Bowman sounded urgent, and if we had stayed back to eat, we would have been late. Nevertheless, we would have the next breakfast together,” Laxus promised.Now, he didn’t know if Nessy was cold because he didn’t eat what she had prepared or if she was still on about last night.“It’
A Franctic Husband
Laxus was forced to open his eyes when his phone rang beside the bed table. He reached forth for Nessy, but her side of the bed was empty.“Why did she leave the bed so early?” Laxus asked himself, getting worried and wondering if she had crawled back to her hole.He could still recall what she said last night, and how speechless he had been. A part of him had told him that she had made that confession in her sleepy state, so she couldn’t have realized that he didn’t say a word, right? Even though he had only been married to Nessy for a couple of days, he already knew that she was an emotional woman with a soft heart.Not saying that he loved her too could hurt her deeply and make her recoil, but then again, Laxus hadn’t even decided if he was truly in love with Nessy as well, and he did not want to lie to her.Laxus’s phone began to ring again, taking him out of his reverie. He was somewhat relieved when the caller ID showed Bowman. Since they returned from their trip, Laxus hadn’t s
Not So Much In Charge
Darwin refused to believe the crap the doctor just told him. He became wild and frantic and the doctor had to leave him for a second to get Luther.Darwin struggled hard to get on his feet, clenching his teeth bravely to prevent him from crying out in pain and attracting the attention of anyone at all. He would rather die than let anyone see him defeated.Darwin tried and tried, but the pain was too much to bear, and his legs just wouldn’t move an inch because his waist was completely numb.“Fuck!” Darwin exclaimed in frustration.It was not until he almost fell off the bed that he decided to stop struggling. It would be worse for anyone to find him on the floor, so Darwin decided that he would simply wait for Luther to show up and have him take him out of here. Darwin would not be defeated!His heart was racing and beating really fast, because a part of him kept reminding him about what the doctor said, but because Darwin could never imagine being in that position, he refused to take
A Hardened Patient
Darwin tried to sit up, but the sharp pain that shot through him from every part of his body sent him back to the bed and he groaned out loud in pain, causing his assigned nurse to rush into his ward.He was feeling numb on his waist and he was frustrated as fuck.“Mr. Darwin, I suggest you stay put,” the young nurse said frantically as she tried to check Darwin if he was alright.As soon as her hand touched Darwin, he hit her hand away from his body violently, making her yelp in pain.“I was only trying to help you,” she said solemnly.“I don’t need your freaking help!” Darwin yelled at her rudely. “Where is my doctor?” Darwin asked angrily.He hated being confined to a hospital bed. For years, he had managed to stay far away from hospitals and doctors, and now that he was here, he wanted to leave badly. He could not understand why he was feeling this much pain, and why he wasn’t feeling his waist. It had been just a push from Bowman’s man, so it couldn’t have been that bad. Besides,
The Kinkaid Wife
Linnie sat dutifully in Luther’s ward, close to his bed in the hospital like a loving and caring wife that she was. They had been in the hospital all night, but she felt relieved now, because her knee had been treated and the pain had greatly subsided. Linnie could rarely believe how everything had worked in her favor. She had ensured that the bloggers had gotten the story, and now that it was dawn, she believed that the news would be flying all over the internet in no time.Luther opened his eyes, finally awake.The doctor had given him some sedatives to make him sleep better after he was examined, and also some drugs to help the alcohol get out of his system faster. He looked like a mess, and once again, Linnie realized that he was not half as handsome as Laxus.“You,” Luther said grudgingly when he turned and saw Linnie. “I don’t want you here, you evil woman,” Luther declared.Of course, Linnie knew that he would try to be a nuisance once he woke up, but she was very well prepare
A Perfect Way Too Reconcile
Laxus wondered if he had not made the mistake of not letting Nessy sleep in the guestroom like she wanted, because she had become cold and unhappier. He felt terrible, because this wasn’t what he envisioned for the both of them, especially with how they had been during their trip before the Zayomi man spoilt things for them.As Laxus cast a glance over Nessy who was sleeping beside him on their bed, he worried about what they were becoming. His heart ached badly.“Why do I feel this way about being neglected?” Laxus asked himself worriedly.He could as well be very contented with the fact that Nessy was willing to play the perfect couple out there in public, and as long as they were cordial inside the home, he shouldn’t have minded, but Laxus couldn’t. He wanted things between himself and Nessy to be better than it had been. He wanted to be happy again, and he wanted to make Nessy happy.“You are in love with her.”A bold voice that sounded like Bowman’s said in Laxus’s head, but this
The Perfect Alibi
Linnie stood above Luther and stared at him for some minutes. He was still breathing, so she was certain that he had merely passed out; it must have been the effect of the alcohol in his system.“Bastard,” Linnie cussed him, resisting the urge to actually spit on his face.As she looked at him, she realized that she hated Luther Kinkaid with passion. If she wasn’t mindful of what laid at stake, she might have succumbed to the temptation of choking him and watching him die. This was literally the first time that Linnie was having this strong urge to kill, and she could not tell if it was as a result of the hatred she had for Luther or what she had experienced at Darwin’s office a few hours ago.“Who is helpless now?” Linnie asked the unconscious Luther hatefully.Luther stayed on the ground without moving, and the only thing that signified that he was still alive was the rising and falling of his beating chest. He was just like his father, Darwin, who was probably still lying just like
