Rise Of The Rightful Heir The One Insignificant Person
Nessy’s heart had been beating rapidly since she got the phone call. As for the rest of the day at work, she could barely concentrate at anything. She had thought that she had gone scot free with Gary’s death, but now, her mistake crept up right away, and she had no idea what to do. He had already asked Nessy to meet him up at a secluded bar at 7pm to have a discussion, and Nessy knew that if she didn’t show up for it, he would pull through with his threats, and that would land her in jail for life.Nessy did not want to go to jail at all.The time he gave was certainly far from her closing time, but Nessy knew that this was not a person that she could play around with.“Nessy, are you okay? You have seemed nervous the entire day,” Mr. Henry asked in observation when Nessy had got into his office at 6pm to obtain permission to leave. “Did something happen with the hamburgers?” he asked further.Nessy hadn’t thought that he would notice her mood; people rarely paid attention to her an
Rise Of The Rightful Heir His Demands
Nessy’s eyes widened in shock. “What did you just say?” Nessy asked.“You heard me, Nessy. I want the entire world to know the truth,” Jeff repeated sternly.Nessy straightened up and she decided to play the game that she had been playing way before now, because unlike Mrs. Linnie Kinkaid who had been fishing for information for a while now, no one had any real evidence that would tie her to the crime.For crying out loud, Gary had been buried, and Nessy thought that her nightmare was over until Jeff’s call.“I don’t know what you are talking about,” Nessy denied.Jeff laughed sinisterly. “Listen, I did not call you here for you to deny things, because I knew that you did it,” Jeff said. Then he drew his face closer to Nessy, his smelly breath grazing her face and making her scrunch her face in disdain, and he said, “I saw you kill the old man in cold blood.”Jeff’s confidence scared Nessy. Even though Mrs. Linnie Kinkaid and the detective had forced her into saying something before w
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Tedious Access
As Nessy left the bar, she became more devastated.This issue was getting more complicated as time went on, especially when she thought that it was over. If someone like Mrs. Linnie Kinkaid got a hang of it, she would not only be joyous; she would also not hesitate a second to use it against Laxus.Not that Nessy had anything for Laxus, contrary to what everyone thought or insinuated, and not that she also held a grudge against him for not remembering her now that he was famous and popular, and even though people might feel like she should use that to bring him down, Nessy could not do that. She just wasn’t that kind of person.First of all, Laxus never touched Gary. By the time she even called Laxus, Gary was already dead, so in a way, he was innocent, but what Mrs. Linnie Kinkaid wanted and what Jeff was insisting on even though he claimed to have seen everything unfold was that Laxus was even the one who struck Gary to death.That was the testimony that Mrs. Linnie Kinkaid was exp
Rise Of The Rightful Heir The Routine Of A CEO
Laxus got dressed for the day’s work and came downstairs as early as usual, escaping his chef. Laxus knew that the woman always tried her best to wake up earlier than Laxus just so that she could prepare breakfast for him, but she always missed him, because Laxus was faster than her.Laxus wasn’t a breakfast person; he had tried to tell her this severally, but it had fallen on deaf ears.“I don’t care, you need to eat. Everyone needs food,” she had insisted firmly.Laxus had smiled fondly, because she reminded him of his grandmother who always ensured that he was well taken care of. Laxus could not thank Bowman enough for carefully selecting a chef for Laxus who cared for him as though she was his mother, even though he rarely made it easy for her. Anyway, Laxus always ensured that he made up for every missed breakfast at dinner by eating up everything that he was served even if he had to force himself.Laxus stopped bothering about breakfast when he began to work at Mr. Henry’s resta
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Adamantly Assertive
“I don’t think I am interested,” Laxus said to Bridget without wasting time.The last thing he wanted was to be in anything that involved Abby Golden. “Have you been reading the blogs? Just one show, and they are already spreading false news about us,” Laxus said, tight-lipped. “I don’t want that,” he stated vehemently.Laxus, although an extremely busy man who barely even had time to blink his own eyes, was still abreast of what was going on around, including news, and as usual, gossips and fake news always spread like wildfire. When Laxus came across the gist about a brewing romance between him and Abby, it had left a sour taste in his mouth for hours. He knew that many men would be overjoyed to be around a woman of substance, grit, and power, but that wasn’t just Laxus, and try as much as he could, he could not just force an attraction or likeness that wasn’t there.“If you will just give me an opportunity to explain what I came up with, sir, you will see how beneficial it will be
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Long Overdue Visit
Laxus left the company to visit his mother’s gigantic mansion; a place he hadn’t been to since she passed and after her funeral. Not that he did not want to go there, but Laxus knew that he would be too heartbroken should he visit there again, and so he had just taken it out of his mind…until today.When Laxus arrived there, he was surprised to meet a security guard in the gate. He had expected that it would be locked. In Laxus’s mind, he was going to a gigantic mansion that hadn’t been visited in years, because he knew that Luther would never dream of coming here.“I hate it here,” Luther had often whined each time they had had to come for a visit. Their dad had literally had to force Luther.So while Laxus looked forward to every visit and stay at the mansion, Luther dreaded visiting.“She always wants us to make hamburgers and read, and I detest doing those. I just want to focus on playing my games. Anyway, I can’t wait for when I would never have to return here,” Luther would ofte
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Change Of Plans
The moment Linnie got Bridget’s text message, she swung into action.“I am going to see him for myself,” Linnie decided to herself.With that, she freshened up and gave her style the best she could offer. Not that Linnie ever dressed below her status or class, but then again, there was just something different that came with the style, knowing that she was going to see Laxus. Thankfully, she was the only one at one. Recently, Luther had begun to show up at the company every single day, which came as a surprise to Linnie, because deep down, she knew that Luther wasn’t doing that with his whole heart.“All that is a façade which he will soon get tired of,” Linnie said to herself with confidence.She had been married to Luther long enough to know that he was only playing by the books more like to spite Linnie and stop his father from ever considering her than actually impressing him. Also, ever since that encounter where they ended up having sex, Linnie was certain that something was goi
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Fierce Protection
“Where are you now?” Bowman asked Dragon over the phone.Dragon was simply waiting around. He had come out of the hospital after his near-death experience, even though his doctor insisted that he was not strong enough, but Dragon did not pay him any mind. As soon as he felt slightly better and the bullet wounds were healing, which was quite fast, he decided to leave. Dragon knew that he could not remain in the hospital longer than necessary. First of all, there were enemies who wanted to see him dead, and laying in a hospital bed would only make him an easy target. Secondly, there were tasks to be carried out, and Dragon was not one to engage in unfinished tasks.“Right where I should be, waiting for him,” Dragon responded to Bowman, looking casually around. No one would suspect a thing; his body was moderately covered, and he was just another regular person hanging around.“Make sure you get him before anyone does, especially that devil, Darwin, or heaven’s forbid, Linnie Kinkaid,” B

Miss Impossible
Laxus was not sure that he heard Nessy correctly. “Excuse me, what did you just say?” Laxus had to ask.“I will not accept your offer, sir,” Nessy repeated.She still wasn’t looking up at Laxus and her voice was firm, shocking and exasperating Laxus at the same time.“Will you look at me for the love of God and stop calling me sir!” Laxus barked in frustration, and the moment he did that, he regretted it instantly.He shouldn’t have yelled at Nessy; Laxus was not even the kind of men that yelled at women, but someone, Nessy was infuriating him and making him to lose his cool. She was a stubborn mule, and he did not even know what to do with her. Laxus should have known that with Nessy, he would not be having it easy. She was the most stubborn woman he had ever met, and it made him recall the one and only time that she spent his apartment, when he had saved her from Drake’s assault. Laxus could recall vividly how she had stubbornly stayed out in the cold and even allowed some of it to
Awkwardness
When Laxus had received a call from Bowman saying that he had gotten Nessy and she would be waiting for him at his Bowman’s mansion, Laxus had been relieved and happy.Bowman was fast on his promises, and Laxus liked that about him. The only result he hadn’t gotten yet was retrieving the box that was snatched away from Laxus in his grandmother’s mansion, but then again, Bowman had not failed in any of his promises to Laxus, so Laxus was not at all bothered about it.However, Laxus had been taken aback by Nessy’s appearance when he had walked into Bowman’s house and found her wolfing down food hungrily and hastily. This was not the Nessy he saw the last time. She looked thinner and haggard, and worse, she looked like a beggar. If he had seen her on the road, Laxus would have passed her by without even knowing she was the one, because he would not have even given her a second glance.She had been so hungry and busy with the food that she didn’t even notice his presence until he was righ
A Platter For The Hungry
Nessy ran as fast as her legs could carry her, but then again, she must have been foolish to think that she would ever be able to outrun a man like that, especially on an empty stomach. Before Nessy could even run far, she felt strong and firm arms grip her.“Help!” Nessy yelled as he held her tight, stopping her from struggling or escaping his grip.Unfortunately, this was the slums where no one really cared about what happened to anyone. It was literally the environment where beggars lived, and so even if anyone was being harmed or carted anyway, no one showed any form of concern. If Nessy had been financially capable enough, she would have rented an apartment, and none of this would be happening to her. Camping in a place like this, even if she called the cops, they would not pay her any mind. Nessy felt sorry for herself, because she knew that her life was in grave danger, and yet she had no help.“Somebody, please, help!” Nessy screamed at the top of her lungs, but as she expecte
Something Juicy And Scary
Laxus was having quite a busy day at work, but one thing that gave him some satisfaction was the fact that he had been able to help Olivia and her husband. The arrangements hadn’t been difficult to make. All Laxus had to do was call a surgeon outside the country, and the moment the surgeon knew that it was Laxus of the Laxus Distillery Cave, he had fixed Linnie’s uncle’s name into the list for urgent surgery, and then Laxus had had Bridget make the necessary arrangements.Laxus felt fortunate to have such an efficient personal assistant.Speaking of efficient personal assistants, Bridged opened Laxus’s door slightly and popped her head into his office.“Mr. Laxus, you have a visitor,” Bridget informed him.“Who is that?” Luther asked without even raising his head from what he was doing on his computer. “Miss Abby Golden,” Bridget answered.Laxus’s mood soured immediately, because she wasn’t even in the list of people Laxus wanted to see, talk more of being the least.“I am tied up wi
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
