Rise Of The Rightful Heir A Sinister Guest
Only when Linnie had driven out of their home that she allowed the tears that was threatening to fall stream down her cheeks.“I don’t need your services right now!” She had yelled angrily at the drivers and bodyguards who had quickly made themselves available the moment they saw her leave the house.Aside from the fact that Linnie was feeling sore in her heart and she needed to let out those hurtful tears alone so that no one would see her, Linnie also needed to go alone to where she already had in mind to go. Every time she thought that they could not hurt her any deeper, they went ahead and said or did something that would make Linnie’s heart sore. Linnie should have been used to Darwin’s rejection by now, because it was glaringly obvious that he did not want Linnie anywhere near the Kinkaid Distillery Company, but then, he always found a way to turn her down with a mixture of embarrassment.What neither Darwin knew was that their rejection and harsh words only fueled Linnie to ach
Rise Of The Rightful Heir A Grand Welcome
Laxus got out of his apartment dressed in a pair of plain trousers and long-sleeve shirt that he neatly ironed and buttoned. It was one of the few decent clothes that he had been able to acquire since he walked out on his family and everything he owned.This was the perfect time to appear like this!As Laxus got out of his apartment, he sighted one of Bowman’s car parked close to the road. Laxus sighed as the same bodyguard who had forced him into going to Bowman’s house the other day got down from the car and approached Laxus.“I was asked to get you,” the bodyguard informed Laxus.Laxus shook his head, but he was not angry. “Did Bowman think that I would bail out on him again?” Laxus asked the bodyguard.“I don’t know,” the bodyguard answered. “I am just doing my job,” he answered.“Oh, I see,” Laxus said, impressed by his dedication and devotion to serving Bowman.Laxus knew that getting staff like this, regardless of the position they occupied and the role they played in your life
Rise Of The Rightful Heir The Ground Tour
“All these?” Laxus asked in awe.He was still in shock as to the beauty and elegance of the entire place. Hadn’t they spoken about it in less than seventy-two hours? If Laxus could remember their conversation that led to Bowman’s offer which he had accepted, Bowman had sounded as though it was something that would begin from scratch. He certainly couldn’t have erected this magnificent structure in twenty-four hours or less. “Yes, Laxus, all of it,” Bowman said.He could see the smile and awe in Laxus’s eyes, and he knew that he had gotten just the right reaction that he wanted from Laxus.“And this is your office right here,” Bowman informed Laxus.“This room?” Laxus asked, still shocked. “Of course,” Bowman answered firmly.Somehow, Laxus knew that this was the most exquisite office in the entire building. “So if this is my office, which one is yours?” Laxus asked Bowman.“It’s just right across this one, although I might not be here as often as expected of you,” Bowman told Laxus.
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Too Much To Take In
Tears of joy and gratitude gathered in Laxus’s eyes. The only person that ever cared enough about what Laxus wanted was his late grandmother, but to hear someone give him the luxury of doing what he had always wanted to do was the biggest thing that had ever happened to Laxus.“Thank you, Bowman,” Laxus appreciated Bowman, and he could already see the thousands of things he could achieve merging the distillery company with hamburger making. This had been something he had wanted to do desperately when he was working at his family company, but his father always said, “It is a pipe dream, Laxus. Merging hamburger to what we have going on is going to be a cruel joke on the company, and we cannot stand that, so do away with such childish fantasy,” whenever he brought up the idea to his father.And now, Laxus had the freedom to do just that…finally!“Don’t thank me, Laxus, just do your absolute best,” Bowman told Laxus instead.“You will never regret entrusting this into my hands,” Laxus p
Rise Of The Rightful Heir A King's Treat
Laxus did not bother much about Bowman’s absence or his conversation with the scary-looking man, because he was too engrossed with his thoughts.As Laxus looked around the wide, large, and incredibly spacious factory and all the things that Bowman said to him, he could not help but marvel.“All you should worry about is making a lifelong impression on everyone that would attend, and the world that would watch the highlight of the grand opening.”Those were Bowman’s words and they still rang in Laxus’s head like a bell. “I have a special speech to prepare for in a couple of hours,” Laxus told himself.He looked at himself and discovered how low he was looking, but then again, Bowman had said that there were already hired stylists. Everything was happening so fast and it felt like a sweet dream, and Laxus had to literally pinch himself to see if he would wake up.“So I am going to be the one responsible for building this from scratch,” Laxus talked to himself.Bowman’s time away was giv
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Godforsaken Interview!
“We should be ready to begin in a couple of minutes,” the interviewer, a sharp-witted, bright and cheerful, yet professional young lady said to her crew members.They were at Luther and Linnie’s matrimonial home for the couple’s interview of the year which would come with the juiciest deals they had ever gotten. Although the venue of the interview had initially been scheduled to take place at the TV station space, but it was later decided that interviewing them at the comfort of their home was better; of course, Darwin did pull a few strings to make that happen.They had been here for more than an hour now, but they were all patiently waiting for Luther and Linnie, because they knew that they were the power couple of the year, even though it was getting somewhat late.As soon as the interviewer and her crew members saw the stylists coming downstairs, they breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that it was an indication that their couple was done and they would be downstairs in a few minut
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

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
Brunt Of Betrayal
“You and Linnie were engaged?” Nessy asked, shocked.She had heard of betrayals, like what her own father did to her by giving her away without considering her feelings or thinking about her safety simply because he wanted to get Gary off his neck, but this had to be the deepest betrayals she had ever heard. Nessy had never fallen in love before, but she knew that being hurt and betrayed by the people you loved and trusted had to be the worst pain in the entire world.“Yes, we were,” Laxus started. “I loved Linnie so much, Nessy. She was an ordinary waitress when we met and I fell in love with her. She seemed different from all the other high class girls I had met my entire life, and I thought that she was truly different. I thought Linnie loved me, but I was wrong. The moment an offer to marry my brother instead and enjoy the wealth and fame that came with being a Kinkaid was dangled in front of her, Linnie grabbed it,” Laxus explained.“She chose your brother over you?” Nessy asked;
A Trip Down The Past
Nessy sat there, stunned into speechlessness. In everything that had gone through her head, she never thought of that. She never imagined that was what Laxus would say, and now that he had said it, she could not even think.Her mind had gone completely blank.“Or I was a Kinkaid,” Laxus corrected.It still didn’t change anything of who Laxus was, and Nessy wondered if she was experiencing something strange and unreal for the very first time. She knew that Kinkaid family; who didn’t know one of the wealthiest and influential families in the city? The Kinkaid Distillery company had been in existence before Nessy was born, and they had been very successful. Never had Nessy thought that she would ever sit with a Kinkaid in the same space and this closely, because the social standing was far apart.Nessy and Laxus stayed quiet for some time.Nessy did not know what to say or even how to react to what she just heard, and Laxus didn’t seem like he was going to say something else anytime soo
The Big Reveal
“I don’t want to talk about her,” Laxus said and hoped deep down that Nessy would just let things rest.Laxus decided that he would have to send a formal warning to Linnie, or even get a restraining order against her to protect Nessy so that they would not have to deal with this anymore. Laxus could not believe how broken he was by just seeing Nessy hurt and withdrawn from him. He had no idea that he wanted Nessy to be unhappy with him.“Then I am sorry, Mr. Laxus, but I cannot go anywhere with you, or continue working for you, or even staying in this lovely apartment you got for me,” Nessy said.Laxus was deeply heartbroken. He could not believe his ears, and for a minute, he thought he had heard wrongly…Laxus hoped that he had actually heard wrongly.“Excuse me?” Laxus asked in disbelief.“You heard everything I said, Mr. Laxus,” Nessy said, going back to being very formal with Laxus, and he hated it. Nessy saw how shocked Laxus was and she shook her head. “Oh, you thought that a l
Pity Or Reward?
Laxus was speechless for a minute, not knowing what exactly to do or say. He struggled between telling Nessy the truth and simply finding a convenient lie, because in all honesty, he did not want to talk about the family and past he had left behind.“I can’t tell you, I am sorry,” Laxus eventually said calmly. He began to wonder what Linnie came to Nessy’s apartment for, and why she would be threatening Nessy. They had absolutely nothing binding them together, so why would she be harassing Nessy?“How am I supposed to feel safe when I don’t know what is going on?” Nessy asked, and Laxus understood where she was coming from, but he found it difficult to just tell Nessy everything.“How did she even find out that you live here?” Laxus asked.There were so many thoughts and questions running through his head now, and he wanted answers to most of them. He would have confronted Linnie, but Laxus had sworn never to have anything to do with her.“You tell me,” Nessy said, crossing her hands
Out Of The Blue
Nessy was shaken after Mrs. Linnie Kinkaid left her apartment. Her threat sent shivers down Nessy’s spine, and she became more afraid for her life now than when she was being threatened to spill the beans about the incident with Gary which Laxus was slightly involved in or even when she was sleeping in the counter without protecting.Things are deeper and more dangerous than you know…The words kept ringing in Nessy’s head. She worked as a slave for Gary for years before she killed him in self-defense, and being a man of wealth and power, she knew just how evil and dangerous their world was. Now, Laxus had become one of the richest and powerful men in the city, which meant that he was truly not the same person that she worked with in Mr. Henry’s restaurant.Nessy had almost totally forgotten that she knew little or nothing about Laxus, and now, he was right in the midst of demons and dragons, and for all she knew, he could be one of them, because if he wasn’t, why had a woman like Mrs
A Warning Visit
When Nessy heard her doorbell ringing, she was perplexed as to who would be visiting her. Since she moved into this apartment, she had not had any guest over for visitation; not like she had friends anyway, so the first person that came to her mind was Laxus.“What could he be doing here?” She asked herself, surprised already surprised…and agitated even though she was yet to open the door.This was the first time Laxus would be visiting her in her apartment, and even though he paid for everything, he hadn’t thought it wise to come before now. Also, it was getting late.Quite frankly, if Nessy was being honest with herself, she would admit that being around Laxus made her feel uneasy.Anyway, the doorbell continued to ring, and Nessy knew that she would have to eventually answer it. When Nessy opened the doorbell without checking from her peephole to even be certain that it was Laxus first, she was shocked to see no other person but Mrs. Linnie Kinkaid standing right in front of her, i
