Rise Of The Rightful Heir The Game Has Changed
Bowman was boiling with rage and vengeance.“Darwin dare take a shot at me!” Bowman ranted, his anger emanating from every pore in his body. “That damn Darwin dared to attempt to take my life!” Bowman could not get a hold of himself.He was raving mad, and he wanted to get a hold of Darwin and strangle him by himself. “You know how much I detest coming here, yet you have made me come here,” Dragon said as he walked into Bowman’s living room.It had been too long since he last met with Bowman at his mansion, and that was because Dragon preferred to meet in places like the club house, because such places suited his personality. The home setting was for those who lived without a care in the world, and he would not have answered Bowman’s call if he did not think that it was extremely urgent. Bowman rarely called him, especially when they had just parted ways, but Dragon knew that such calls were not ignored or neglected.“I almost got killed today,” Bowman turned to Dragon and blurted ou
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Deeper And Deeper
It was still late at night, and Laxus was having a hard time sleeping. Heck, he could not even recall the last time he slept peacefully, because it seemed now that there were problems looming around, and so his mind was constantly warning him not to fall asleep, or he might fall into trouble.Right now, Laxus was confused and he felt lost. Confused because he did not know if he should call Nessy; because since that night, they hadn’t spoken to each other. Nessy hadn’t even called him to ask him why he didn’t show up the other night, and everything just kept troubling Laxus. Then he was lost because now he did not have a job, and he could not take the offer too. He couldn’t go back to Mr. Henry and the restaurant, and he could not go back to Bowman; that wasn’t even an option for Laxus.He also needed to leave this apartment that was causing him more chaos than peace, but then again, he would need money for that, and he had none.Laxus was still lamenting about how pathetic his life ha
Rise Of The Rightful Heir A Determined Woman
Linnie waited in her car patiently. She had been waiting for over an hour now, but she could not afford to get impatient. She knew that if she got impatient, she might not get what she came all the way for. It was bright in the day, and from what Linnie gathered, it was Detective George’s off day.Thankfully, she had used the tinted car so no one would even know that she was the one who was leisurely parked close to his apartment, and also, Linnie had come alone. She did not make use of the drivers and bodyguards, because she did not want any of her business getting to the ears of Luther, especially now that he was determined to bring her down.“No one can kick me out of the Kinkaid family,” Linnie vowed to herself.She had gone over and beyond to get a spot in one of the richest, most influential and powerful family in the entire country; she even had to give up her love and devotion to Laxus even after years of being together, and she would not allow any of that to go to waste. Eve
Rise Of The Rightful Heir On Both Sides
Linnie arrived home with an achievement, but she had just gotten herself something to be worried about.“Darwin has discovered that the mansion that Laxus’s grandmother left behind is now worth billions of dollars, and she bequeathed it to Laxus.”Those had been the revelation from Detective George. Linnie hadn’t even needed to press further, or threaten more before Detective George had thrown in the towel.“Such a lousy prick,” Linnie had said as she left his smelling apartment. “I wonder why Darwin didn’t pick a more solid officer,” Linnie had added.She had gotten what she wanted without much hassle, but she had also been disappointed. If he could succumb to her easily, then it also meant that he should not be trusted. Well, that was something that Linnie had just discovered that would help her gain favor with Darwin.“When the time comes,” She had told herself as she drove out of the neighborhood. A smart woman knew that the best way to win was gather evidences and use them at the
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Stark Denial
“I don’t know anyone by that name,” Linnie lied with a straight face.Meanwhile, she was very mad that Olivia would do as much as go to Luther. What did she go to him for? Linnie would never let anyone destroy all that she had built over the years, especially not Olivia who put her through hell and made her hate her very existence.Linnie grabbed her robe by the bedside and covered herself up; it was obvious that the mission had been ruined, which was just shameful, because the lingerie was quite expensive, and she might just be ovulating, which meant that if they had had sex like a husband and wife would, there was every possibility that she would get pregnant.“I don’t know anyone by that name,” Linnie repeated as she got off the bed and attempted to walk out of the room while Luther’s questioning eyes stayed glued to her.“You are lying, and you know dad would not take kindly to that,” Luther said, making Linnie stop in her tracks.She turned to Luther with a mean expression on her
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Two Skilled Actors
Linnie would rather die than give Luther the satisfaction of winning this round. Regardless of whatever was going on within the walls of their home, Linnie would never pass up the opportunity to show that she was Linnie Kinkaid.“You will have to try harder next time, Luther,” Linnie said as she got dressed.It was a good thing that she always had new dresses in her wardrobe; one of the advantages of living in wealth, luxury, and abundance. All she needed to do was wear something that would turn heads, even though Luther’s head had proven to be the stiffest, and apply some makeup. What Luther did by not informing her on time was a deliberate act, but what Luther also didn’t know what that she was good with a good number of things, and that included beautifying herself.In less than thirty minutes, Linnie was done, and when she stared at her reflection in the mirror, she absolutely liked what she was seeing. She could have looked way more beautiful if she had had the time to hire styli
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Two Notorious Options
After his conversation with Nessy, while Laxus appreciated the fact that she did not rope him in even though she could have easily done so just to set herself free, Laxus decided that he would rather stay away from Nessy.Not that she was a bad person, but Laxus realized that Linnie was now trying to use Nessy to get to him, so the earlier he detached himself from her, the better off he might be.Regardless of what was going on, Laxus needed a job, and he needed one really fast. He was very broke and penniless now, and in one time, if he did not get a job, he might starve to death. Laxus knew that it would be difficult getting a job without proper recommendation, and worse now that he already had a prison record, so he decided to go for menial jobs. It would not meet most of his needs and get him a new apartment, but it would put food on his table for now.Also, Laxus would live in a rock, away from his manipulative and callous family if push comes to shoves.Laxus made a turn on the
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Repackaged Offer
Laxus arrived in Bowman’s house being driven by his driver and bodyguard in the front seat.Laxus hated to be here, but then again, he would rather face a harmless Bowman and tell him to his face once again that he wasn’t interested in his offer, and that he would never be interested, rather than face another rigorous interrogative section with a detective who wanted nothing but to see Laxus jailed for something he did not do.Laxus had been somewhat satisfied when he caught the detective’s regretful face as he watched Laxus jump into Bowman’s car and the driver drove off at top speed, but that satisfaction had long expired when Laxus realized that he was not going to a place he liked either.“Please, come out of the car,” the bodyguard said. He had opened the door for more than five minutes now, but Laxus hadn’t made a move to get down from the car, so he had to say the words.“I want to leave,” Laxus demanded.It was a ridiculous thing to say, especially with the way he had jumped i

Marry Me
Laxus did not waste time after his lengthy discussion with Bowman whom he now greatly regarded, and as Bowman even gave his consent, Laxus didn’t hold back.He left his office and went to meet Nessy at the hamburger store. The hamburger store launching was the next day, after which they would travel for the Zayomi contract, and Laxus wanted to fix everything. Another thing that boosted his confidence was the fact that Bowman assured him that Darwin had been taken care of, and he would not be going on with the lawsuit anymore.“How did you do it?” Laxus had asked, believing Bowman completely.“That is not something you should worry yourself about. All you need to do is get everything set from your own end; you are not going to be facing any hindrances or adversity,” Bowman had assured him.Bowman never told Laxus how he went about these things, and it made Laxus worried and surprised, especially being that it involved someone as powerful and controlling as Darwin, but at the same time
A Firm Decision
The first thing Laxus did in the morning after his routine of going about and checking around was to call Bridget into his office.“Sir, you have a meeting by…” Bridget started, but Laxus stopped her immediately.“I didn’t call you so that you could read my schedule to me, Bridget, and for today, you can simply send it to my mail and set a reminder so that I will get it from here,” Laxus said.He could not even bring himself to be as friendly as he was with Bridget; maybe he would be after he was done addressing the issue, but he wanted to get it done and over with.Bridget seemed surprised, because Laxus had never been this way towards her. She also noticed that he was somewhat cold towards her when he arrived at work this morning. His cordiality just seemed too formal and stiff.“Have I done something wrong, sir?” Bridget asked, her heart skipping a bit.“Have you booked the flight for this week that I asked you to?” Laxus asked, even though it wasn’t exactly what he wanted to talk
Abrupt Change Of Mind
Linnie could hardly make out what happened the night before. Even when she had managed to get home and tried to tall to Luther, which was obviously pointless because he was angry as hell over what Linnie knew nothing about, it yielded to nothing.“Something is wrong,” Linnie kept telling herself all night.First of all, why did Darwin ask his convoy to leave without him? He obviously wanted to deceive people into thinking that he had left, but all for what? Linnie’s suspicions have been confirmed; he was definitely hiding something in his office.Then she remembered the box that was snatched from Laxus. The one the detective told her that Luther handed over to his father.“He is hiding that box in his office,” Linnie pondered to herself, alone in her bedroom all night.She did not sleep a wink at all, because after realizing that Darwin had to be hiding the box in his office, and also telling herself that she would do anything to find out about it, Linnie then began to think about the
Final Warning
Darwin put the box on his desk and looked at it for some minutes. He just stared at it, allowing his mind to go blank for some seconds. Till now, he had not been able to open it. He had thought of giving it to a blacksmith to break the locks so just that he could see what was in it that the bloody old woman kept hidden from everyone, but then again, Darwin might get caught in the process. Besides, there was no reason to hurry up with it, especially now that his hands were full with other important things, like finding ways to bring Laxus down. He had all the time in the world to open it. The only persons that knew that the box was with him were Luther and Detective George, and he trusted them to keep their mouths shut.And he was the only one who knew that the box was in this very building and in his office.Darwin had contemplated carrying it to his house, but he was always having whores over, and as such, he did not want to take the risk of any of them snooping around. This was als
A Brother's Warning Visit
It had been a long day for Laxus, but one thing he was grateful for was that he had been able to warn Linnie off. Nevertheless, he had also instructed one of bodyguards to hang around Nessy’s apartment just in case Linnie tried to be stubborn, because she was not to be trusted. He had given the bodyguard a firm instruction to not only prevent anyone strange from gaining access into the apartment, but also informing him immediately. Laxus would do anything to keep Nessy safe.Albeit, Nessy was not aware of the bodyguard arrangement.Laxus didn’t get the chance to go back to the office and speak to Bridget about what Nessy said about her, but he could always do that the next day. For now, Laxus wanted to just have his dinner and rest fully. However, that seemed impossible when Laxus got the alarm; someone new had approached his gate.Laxus called his security instantly.“Who is that?” Laxus asked.“He says his name is Luther Kinkaid, sir,” his security answered, taking Laxus aback.“Are
The Meet-Up
Laxus waited for Linnie at the location he sent to her. It was a private place, and because of his standing in the city, he was assured of privacy.Laxus would not have demanded for privacy in this manner, but he needed to address and correct things. He also knew that he should have just gone about this the legal way, but judging by Darwin’s lawsuit threat, if he went right ahead with legal restriction orders, they might twist the narrative and say that Laxus was only doing it because of what he was being accused of, and knowing how gullible the public were, they would buy it hook, line, and sinker.Laxus knew without a doubt that Linnie would show up and show he waited for her patiently, and he was right; Linnie walked right in a couple of minutes later. She had a smile on her face, but as Laxus set his eyes on her, his stomach recoiled in anger.“Have you ordered something for me? You have always known what I like and gotten it correctly,” Linnie said sweetly.Laxus was only having
Still Getting The Shitty Treatment
Darwin, Luther, and Linnie, along with the other members of the board spent ample time having a meeting in the conference room where Luther made some presentations as well as Linnie.One thing Linnie observed was how well Luther presented the assignment given to him.Linnie knew her husband. First of all, regardless of the fact that he now showed up at the company every day without fail, he did not really give a shit about Kinkaid Distillery Company. In fact, he was now extremely showing signs of dedication and commitment simply because she had been hired. Secondly, he was not that smart. If Laxus had done the presentation, Linnie would have been wowed by the excellence, but not Luther Kinkaid.Everyone was impressed, but Linnie was skeptical.“Well, the meeting is over now,” Darwin began after all said and done. “Everyone should please take their jobs seriously and ensure that we are on board. This company must be ranked as the best distillery company in the city, and no other compan
Keep Him In The Dark
“What are you going to do about what the doctor has told you?” Dragon asked Bowman as they drove back to his mansion.It was settled now that Laxus would make quick and discreet arrangements for Barrister Dickson to be flown out of the country and attended to properly.“Laxus is in trouble,” Bowman said instead, pretending to not have heard Dragon. “He is being dragged for something that he is innocent about, and Darwin is doing this to tarnish his image and hard work,” Bowman added.It was obvious that he was trying to avoid the topic, but Dragon was not about to let Bowman get away with this one. When Bowman had gone into the Doctor’s office, Dragon had eavesdropped. He wasn’t usually a man to do something like that, but with the way Bowman dismissed Laxus and spoke to the doctor, even with the way they had gone into his office, Dragon was certain that something was off.More importantly, Dragon was worried about Bowman.He had noticed some changes in Bowman recently even though he
Horrified
Nessy immediately shook her head the moment the thought came; it was totally wrong of her to come to such a conclusion. Besides, her own father also gave her away to a total stranger, and up till this very moment, neither of her parents had made any attempt to find or reach Nessy.“I am sorry you had to go through all that,” Nessy said, and she meant it.She knew exactly what it felt like to be betrayed and hurt by people you loved and cherished, especially family members.“There is no need for you to feel sorry for me,” Laxus said tightly. “I do not regret anything that has happened in the past, because it has helped me become who I am today,” Laxus added.Nessy nodded in agreement. She could tell that the entire situation was still affecting Laxus, whether or not he liked to admit it. One thing that Nessy knew for sure was that if anyone was truly over their past, they would not be angry and hurt when the conversation was brought up.“And I didn’t tell you any of this so that you wo
