Rise Of The Rightful Heir 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
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
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Widrawal
“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
Rise Of The Rightful Heir A Rare Gift Of Companionship
“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
Rise Of The Rightful Heir A Rude Beauty
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
Rise Of The Rightful Heir What No One Sees
Luther sat in his office and tried to work on some files. He did not have an in-depth knowledge of them, and as he tried to get a hang of it, he realized that they were very difficult.“Damn, these stuffs never get easy no matter how hard I try,” Luther said in frustration. “How does anyone ever get them right? I have been on this since morning, and still, no result,” Luther grumbled angrily.He really hated to be in the company. He would prefer his secret passion to wearing a fancy suit and wasting days in the company when he did not understand shit, but then again, his father would kill him if he knew that after all these years, Luther was still dumb to whatever was going on in the company. Luther was beginning to have a headache just trying to get a hang of it.“No, that’s enough for one day. I obviously cannot do this, and there is no point trying to,” Luther said to himself. Then he did what he always did; he picked up his landline and dialed the secretary’s number assigned to hi

Dilemma
Luther felt better. The pain that he was feeling from the fall was gone after resting for twenty-four hours. However, he was still acting as though he needed help and support from Linnie.And it was for a reason.“Mr. Luther, would you like to have lunch here in your bedroom or downstairs at the dining table?” The maid asked Luther.Although he felt sound and better, he just still laid in bed as his mind thought about everything that had happened. He felt terrible and upset that he gave Linnie the chance to take the upper hand, and more than that, he was curious about those letters.“She knocked me out because of those letters,” Luther thought in his mind. “There must be something in it that she is hiding, so much so that she was willing to kill me. Then where was she the entire time? Where did she get the letters from?” Luther could not stop thinking.He was relieved that Linnie had eventually left him alone to tend to other things. She had been in his face since they returned from t
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
