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

“It hurts, right?” Drake sneered at Nessy as he could see that she was stunned beyond words and she could not get her eyes off the screen.Drake reached out and snatched the phone off Nessy’s hand.“Now you can stop being delusional and know where you belong,” Drake added despitefully.Nessy’s hold on the stool for defense had weakened. She could not begin to explain how it made her feel, other than the fact that Drake was right. Not that Laxus owed her anything; far from that, and Nessy was never an entitled young woman who believed that anyone owed her anything, but she just felt slighted and pained. When she had accidently killed Gary, Laxus was the only one she could think to call as a friend that she could trust, and he had not only shown up, he had also helped her get out of the situation without getting caught, even though she was still getting threats. Nessy just felt that Laxus should have said something to her instead of just abandoning her like that after knowing what she h
Rise Of The Rightful Heir A Strong Threat
Darwin paced about in his office, agitated.“Dad, today is Sunday…couldn’t this have waited until Monday at least?” Luther asked his father as he watched him pace about.Darwin had called his son urgently and urged him to come to the office as something had come up. They rarely ever met up in Darwin’s house, because even while growing up, especially without their mother, Darwin often shipped them off to their grandmother’s. Luther never like at it their grandmother’s either, only Laxus did, so when he was grown enough to make his own decisions, he simply went from one rented apartment or a friend’s crib to another. However, calling him out of the blue to come to the office on a Sunday did not sit well with Luther. He was supposed to be at one his games, at least to clear his head from what they had all watched on TV about Laxus. Nothing pissed Luther off more than seeing Abby flaunt herself to Laxus on national television!“Can you even pretend to care about what is going on?” Darwin

“What?!” Darwin barked into the phone. “How is that even possible?” Darwin asked.Luther sat up straighter, alarmed. At least, he was not new to this news, because he had actually been present when his father had sent for the lawyer to be attacked…not killed, attacked so that he would be unable to get across to Laxus while they deliberated on the right course of action to take to get the property to become theirs.“I just found out, and to be sure, I actually showed up at the hospital, but he is truly not there. I used my influence as an officer to demand to see him, but he wasn’t there. I am just leaving the hospital now,” Detective George said over the phone.Darwin ground his teeth in annoyance and frustration. “He didn’t die, did he?” Darwin asked, because that could also be another reason why he is no longer in his ward.According to the person Darwin hired to carry out the action, he had ensured that he dealt thoroughly with Barrister Dickson, enough to place him in the hospital
Rise Of The Rightful Heir An Old Staff
The biggest mistake Laxus realized he had made on that Monday morning was publicly announcing recruitment into the company.It was the first time that Laxus would ever be in charge of hiring staff, and because he wanted to work with the absolute best, he had to handle the interviews himself. Laxus knew the advantage of having dedicated, hardworking, intelligent, and brilliant staff members, and being that this was a new company, he did not want to make any mistakes.“Maybe I should have just taken Abby’s offer,” Laxus said to himself as he entered his office.When he was driven into his company in his fleet of convoy, his premises had been filled to the brim with candidates who wanted to secure a job with the biggest Distillery Company ever established, so much so that Laxus had to get in through the back of the company. Bowman sure knew what he was doing when he erected the building, because unlike other companies, the back door for this company was an executive private entrance or e
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Plans In Motion
Linnie waited for Darwin’s reaction after he read the news in their living room. Luther had called him the next day and he hadn’t wasted time to come to the house.“How dare they?” Darwin blew hot. “That was just a moment that happened because of what also happened,” Darwin said.“Now they are out spreading false narratives about not just you and our family, but the company,” Luther said. “They have even withdrawn the contracts that we were supposed to get after the interview,” Luther added.Linnie stared at them, shaking her head.If she had been the one who was responsible for this, she was certain that Darwin would be biting off her head by now. He had always posed himself as a man that was incapable of mistakes. Ever since Linnie knew Darwin, he always painted a perfect picture of his personality and the company to the public to see, and now, because of the agitation and bitterness that came from Laxus’s emergence, he had ruined a great deal for the company.“It is bad enough that

“How is it going?” Bowman asked Laxus as he served Laxus his favorite wine in his bar in his mansion.“This week has been the craziest week of my life,” Laxus said, accepting the wine and downing it in one swoop.He hadn’t tasted wine at all the entire week, not to talk of something as good as expensive as what he was having now. He arrived at the company early to resume interviews of staff members and closed later at night. Laxus even hardly had time to eat. The only time he had to eat was dinnertime, and the chef whom Bowman had stationed in his new mansion did her job perfectly well. She always ensured that Laxus had dinner before going to bed otherwise Laxus would have skipped dinner as well. No matter how early she tried to wake up to fix breakfast, Laxus was always earlier. “You look drained already,” Bowman said, chuckling. “Have you even had time to shave? I can see your stubbles,” Bowman observed, and he was not jesting around.Laxus used his hand to touch his face, and he r

Laxus arrived at the restaurant that Abby had told him that she had booked a reservation, and the moment his driver parked at the parking lot, Laxus regretted his actions immediately.“I shouldn’t have let Bowman talk me into this,” Laxus told himself grudgingly.This was a Sunday, and the best thing he would have done for himself was rest the entire day so that he could wake up energized and ready for the day on Monday, but here he was, dressed up and about to have dinner with someone he barely knew. Laxus was certain that he had sworn off love and women after the sting from Linnie, so again, what was he doing here? Laxus was tempted to ask his driver to drive him back to his mansion, but he knew that Bowman would not let him hear the last of it.“All I just have to do is show up, engage in a short conversation, and tell Bowman that there was no spark so that he would leave me the hell alone,” Laxus told himself.Then he got out of the car and walked into the restaurant. It was an ex

Not As Planned
Linnie felt as though her body was on fire, and every other thing that was going on before Bridget’s call, including her seduction tactic on Luther died instantly.She became enraged.It was bad enough that Olivia went to Luther to beg for money, almost ruining things for her, but when the desperate woman saw that things didn’t work out for her, she decided to trace her way to Laxus. “How did she even find Laxus or know about him?” Linnie asked herself, deeply disturbed. She should have handled Olivia way before now. The last thing Linnie wanted was for Olivia or her uncle to have a taste of the good life she was having after all they did to her. Seeing her uncle critically sick and being in a horrible financial state made Linnie satisfied and happy. She had felt that what they were going through was their karma, and Linnie would have been overjoyed if she had gotten a call that her uncle had eventually died, or that something terrible had happened to Olivia. Bridget already told he
Ruined Moment
Linnie was seeing a show when the door banged open and Luther walked into the living room. Linnie was jolted in shock, because she hadn’t expected him to open the door in that manner, and more so, she had been consumed with her own thoughts; the TV was just a way to make anyone think that she was truly watching what was going on there.Luther gave her an ultimatum, and Linnie knew that he was dead serious. A man who did not love her would not hesitate to get rid of her the first chance that she got, and now, Linnie was left with two possible choices; find a way to get pregnant for Luther at all cost before she ultimatum runs out, or catch him having an affair and cheating on her. That way, he would have no choice but to hand over all he had, including his shares in the Kinkaid Distillery Company to her.Either way, Linnie gets to remain in the Kinkaid’s lives.“Shouldn’t you be in bed by now?” Luther asked.Linnie had almost thought that he was speaking to someone else, because if it
A Woman Worth The Trust
Laxus stared at the sign for some minutes, as though he could not believe what he was seeing. Permanently closed? How was that even possible? What happened?After Laxus stopped working at the restaurant, he simply stopping thinking about it. Why wouldn’t he anyway? He now had a multi-billion dollars company to handle and worry about. After Laxus was tired of staring at the sign, and it became crystal clear to him that the sign meant that it was the officers of the law that banned it, he turned and went into his car, wondering what could have happened.Laxus’s major dilemma was how to get in touch with Nessy.He had no clue where Mr. Henry lived, and he never communicated with the other people who worked at the restaurant at that time to even know where any of them lived, so where would he find Nessy? Laxus became really bothered and concerned. Originally, he should have just shrugged it off and scouted for someone else, but deep down, Laxus knew that Nessy was the right candidate for
Roped In With False Identity
Laxus had an amazing time making hamburgers. To his own surprise, he made over twenty five hamburgers, and even when he was done, he was not slightly exhausted.His chef joined him at a point in checking the oven to ensure that they weren’t getting overly baked, and they also shared short conversations, making the whole process worthwhile for Laxus. Before now, he might not have fancied the idea of acquainting himself with any of the domestic servants, but being that he had once being a server under someone, Laxus now looked at everyone the same way. Also, the chef’s presence made Laxus feel like his grandmother was right there in the kitchen with him.After that, Laxus asked the chef to distribute the hamburgers to his domestic workers, and when she was done, she attested that there were still some hamburgers left, and the next thing that came to Laxus’s mind was to send some to Bowman.“Please, have them well wrapped up for me,” Laxus told the chef.She did, and Laxus gave his driv
Not Fast Enough
Darwin and Luther waited for Detective George in Darwin’s office. They had been able to find out the person who sent an anonymous tip to the cops stating that he had viable evidence against Laxus and knew exactly what happened to Gary, and as usual, Darwin had swung into action.Darwin wanted that information first, because now, he did not want to only have Laxus arrested, and that was what the cops would do if they eventually got hold of that testimony and evidence before him. initially, that was what Darwin had wanted, so that Laxus would be ruined, but with the kind of backing that Laxus now had, Darwin knew that Laxus would not spend more than two hours in jail even after getting arrested.What Darwin wanted was to get hold of the information, use it to blackmail and threaten Laxus personally, without the presence of his new god, into surrendering all that he had been given and disappear from limelight forever.“How much longer are we going to wait for Detective George to bring th
Revived Passion
Laxus stayed in his bedroom all night and even until the morning, and even after freshening up, he still remained in his bedroom.He couldn’t even go to the company knowing what the blogs were saying and the lawsuit against him. Over the night, Laxus contemplated going to Darwin and confronting him, but he ended up changing his mind before morning. First of all, he had no desire to set his eyes on Darwin, Luther, or even Linnie, and so far, he had been lucky, so he would not set a trap for himself by going to them. Besides, Bowman already assured Laxus that he would take care of it, and Laxus had come to trust Bowman wholeheartedly and completely.However, as Laxus stayed in his bedroom, he was bored already, even though it was still morning.“What would I do with myself now?” Laxus asked himself.He felt like an invalid just staying indoors and doing nothing on a workday. Laxus wasn’t naturally a lazy man, he preferred to always work, which was why even when he pulled out of the Kin
Two Captains In A Boat
Bowman sat at the backseat in one of his cars with Dragon as his convoy drove over to Darwin’s house. “You said you never wanted to see him face to face again, except it is to kill him,” Dragon said, reminding Bowman of what he said years ago.The drive so far had been quiet, and now, they were even closer to Darwin’s house. Bowman had appreciated the silence, because it gave him time to think deeply, and he had thought that Dragon, who understood him more than anyone else, was giving him the space to do just that, but Bowman was wrong, and he almost groaned out loud when he heard Dragon speak.It was night, which was the perfect time to have whatever meeting he wanted to have with Darwin.“And I haven’t changed that,” Bowman simply said, knowing that if he did not respond to Dragon, he might keep pushing.Sometimes, Dragon could be a real pain in the butt that Bowman could not get rid of.“So we are going in there to kill him?” Dragon asked, a tinge of excitement in his voice.Bowma
Firm Declaration
Linnie had stayed locked up in her room since the doctor broke the news to not just her, but Darwin and Luther.She could still recall the look of excitement and relief on Luther’s face and the look of anger and disappointment on Darwin’s face. Linnie had never felt so humiliated and embarrassed in her entire existence before. In her defense, she had demanded for another test.Maybe Luther might have tried to swing the result, especially being the fact that he did not want Linnie to get pregnant, this was the family hospital and as such, the family doctor might lightly do whatever Luther asked him to do, and the test appointment was pre-booked before today, so Linnie had vehemently demanded for another impromptu test to be carried out on her right there and then; she knew exactly the way she was feeling.Darwin had angrily accepted, and Linnie had selected another random doctor in the hospital and of course, a different laboratory, and they all stayed right there and then so that she
It is Time
“This is preposterous and outrageous!” Laxus said, yelling at the top of his voice in Bowman’s living room.He had left the company right after Detective George served him the charge and left. Laxus was still holding the letter from the court, but he was burning with rage.“Calm down, Laxus,” Bowman said gently, trying to calm Laxus down.“How can you ask me to calm down? The lies they published on the blogs about me is bad enough, but this is just hell and it is going to ruin things!” Laxus said, still fuming and pacing while Bowman just sat still and watched Laxus vent.“You haven’t even touched your drink or sit down since you got here,” Bowman said.He was infuriated at how the whole thing turned out. He was enraged that Darwin was clearly gaining the upper hand. He had suspected that Darwin was the one who had sent someone to go after Laxus; who else would anyway? He just didn’t state his suspicions to Laxus because he wasn’t exactly sure yet, and Laxus was still blindly in the d
