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

Unwavering Loyalty
“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
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
Golding 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 apartmen
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
Acquaintance
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
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
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
