Rise Of The Rightful Heir Her First Assignment
Linnie and Luther sat at the back of one of their cars as their driver followed Darwin’s car closely behind.In less than an hour, Darwin had summoned the presence of Detective George; to make Thaddeus think of it less as a threat-visit. Then after Detective George arrived, he and Darwin got into Darwin’s car while Darwin drove.“There will not be any need for convoys; they will only draw unnecessary attention to us. We are going to go over to him and handle this discreetly,” Darwin had told them.Thankfully, Darwin hadn’t frowned at Luther and Linnie using one of their cars or drivers, because Luther was boiling in anger and jealousy. He was angry for so many things, knowing that he had created this situation with his own hands. The last thing he ever wanted was to have Linnie, whom he knew as a desperate and blood-sucking bitch to become a part of the company. Luther was willing to do anything to keep her as a childless trophy Kinkaid housewife, but now, all that had changed. Then h
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Well Handled
“Dad, why does she have to be the one to do it?” Luther asked angrily, facing Darwin.“When I asked you what was to be done, what was your response?” Darwin asked Luther who reared his head back in embarrassment.Worse, he heard Linnie snigger. Right there and then, Luther wanted to tell his father that he would no longer be going in with them; since his father had now begun to relegate tasks to Linnie, he might as well make himself unavailable. Besides, he even wanted to be elsewhere desperately.“We are all going in there, and Linnie is going to prove her worth,” Darwin declared boldly, making Luther’s desire of leaving now impossible. “Now, everyone, come with me let’s go and fix this shit,” Darwin said as he matched towards the front door.Detective George followed immediately, and just when Linnie also moved her feet to follow too, Luther grabbed her arm roughly, but Linnie did not yelp in pain.“I hope you fail woefully,” Luther said through gritted teeth.Linnie looked at him a

Linnie sipped her glass of brandy and relaxed at their secluded spot as she waited for Bridget to show up. If Bridget hadn’t said that they needed to meet urgently, she would have gladly celebrated the best day of her life at home. On a second thought, maybe here was even better, because a sulking and jealous Luther would have tried everything possible to ruin her good mood.“I knew you would amount to something,” Linnie told herself.She was having the most expensive brandy in the bar, and she was extremely happy. It was a little bit late, and she wanted to have the evening all to herself. Hopefully, Luther would not ruin things for her by calling her. She had smashed the assignment Darwin had given her, because she had been able to get Thaddeus on their team, even easier than she had anticipated, and for the first time, Darwin had openly declared that he was proud of her.“You have done excellently well, Linnie, and I must admit that you have made me prouder than I have been in a r
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Misunderstood Question
Luther drive straight to Abby’s mining company the moment they closed from work. He was itching all day to leave the company, but unlike before, he could not just stand up and leave, knowing that he now had a competitor, and Linnie would be glad if he did anything that made him look bad or incompetent in front of his father.Luther still had intentions to speak with his father regarding hiring Linnie, but for now, he just wanted to see Abby and be happy.“You will have to wait for a moment, sir, because Miss Abby Golden is having an important meeting and she is not to be disturbed,” Abby’s secretary had told Luther.“I will wait for as long as it takes,” Luther had responded.So Luther had sat down and waited patiently, anticipating his meeting and rehearsing what he would say and not say in Abby’s presence. It was as though he was meeting a woman for the first time, and that was what even made Luther certain that he was in love with Abby. He was even skeptical about still meeting Abb
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Subtly Getting Closer
It was a completely busy day for Nessy, and she really liked it, because she enjoyed every single thing that she did; arranging the store, going shopping with the company’s driver and car to fill up the store, and even baking a single hamburger as sample.Laxus already accepted all her proposals, and also informed her about what he wanted to be done, and she was happy to obey his instructions, because if Nessy knew of anyone that knew exactly what he was doing, it would be Laxus. She could not wait for the hamburger store to be officially lunched. Laxus had already informed her that it would be next week, being that they would still have to employ some workers for various tasks and finish setting up the store.Nessy was very happy!After everything that she had been through, she could not believe that luck was shining on her, and also, she had a good apartment to go back to after work. However, Nessy could not stop thinking about the hug that Laxus gave her, and more, the intense emot
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Two Major Enemies
Luther drove back home like a wounded beast. Even though the conversation had just been between himself and Abby Golden, he had felt insulted and humiliated. Maybe he would not have won the contract with the Zayomi man, but he would have at least given it his best shot, and now, he had lost on both sides.“She prefers Laxus over me,” Luther said to himself angrily and bitterly.First, he had to marry a woman that Laxus had already been with, which was like marrying a hand-me-down woman, and now, the one woman that Luther loved dearly, Laxus wanted to steal her away as well. Luther was certain that if Laxus wasn’t in the picture at all, he would have had his chance with Abby, regardless of his marital status.“He is the more brilliant son, the more loved and favored grandson when granny was alive, and now, he is getting everything he wanted,” Luther continued to talk to himself hatefully.He was sick and tired of being rejected and Laxus being accepted. The only time he had enjoyed bei
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Who To Go With
It had been a very busy week for Laxus; online meetings with the men from Zayomi, trying to fix the hamburger store with Nessy and hiring workers to assist her, and also running the company’s affairs. Laxus could barely blink his eyes to rest, and he could not wait for the weekend where he would get to rest eventually.Anyway, one of the reasons Laxus was happy that he had been entirely busy was the fact that it helped him keep his mind off everything that transpired in Mr. Golden’s mansion, and also, the way he felt whenever he was close to Nessy. Every single day, they spent at least two hours together, and Laxus continued to fight his feelings towards her. He knew that it was not love; it could never be love…Laxus had declared himself incapable of loving any woman ever again, but then again, he could not tell what it was.However, being busy made him think of Nessy less, because as soon as he left her presence to face work, he usually forgot about her, or thought of her less. Laxu
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Enough Is Enough
“Bridget, please come into my office,” Laxus said over the intercom and a few seconds later, Bridget entered his office.“You called, sir,” Bridget said.“Yes, I did,” Laxus answered her. “I want you to book a flight for me and Nessy for mid week next week. I will forward all the details to your email,” Laxus instructed Bridget.He did not see the irritation and scowl that appeared on her face upon the mention of Nessy’s name. “Why her?” Bridget blurted out, making Laxus to raise his head up abruptly.“Excuse me?” Laxus asked, unsure of what he heard, and also unsure of the sharp tone of her voice.Bridget, realizing that she had spat out the hatred she had for Nessy by sounding that way and asking that question, cleared her throat and rephrased her question. “With all due respect, Mr. Laxus, I was merely asking what it is for…as your personal assistant concerned.”Laxus, being too busy and occupied with a lot of things decided not to think too much of what just transpired. “The Zayom

Linnie thought that she might have heard wrongly, but of course, Darwin would never make jokes about something as crucial as this.And Luther had a smug look on his face.“But I thought I was doing well,” Linnie said desperately.She had fought so hard to get a position in the company, and now, she was just going to be asked to stop even when she hadn’t worked for up to one month? Linnie felt humiliated.“Your services are no longer required in the company,” Darwin said tightly, his voice harsh, but then again, she was used to it by now.Right from the first day she got acquainted to Darwin when she was still with Laxus, Darwin had never played nice with her.“I don’t understand,” Linnie said, trying to keep the tears from coming to her eyes, because she knew that if they came, she would definitely shed them, and Linnie would hate to give Darwin or even Luther the impression that they were hurting her this deeply.“What don’t you understand, Linnie?” Luther asked impatiently. “Dad alr
Get Pregnant
Darwin barged into Luther and Linnie’s home as early as possible like a wild animal.“What the fuck! Is he doing this for popularity or publicity?” Darwin asked, fuming dangerously.Linnie returned back in time with no one suspecting her, and the buzz of Laxus’s marriage announcement and Abby Golden’s passing out not only made it easy for Linnie to slip out of the company unnoticed just as she had come, but also kept her out of the headlines. She had successfully been able to attend the function without being noticed by anyone, even though the outcome wasn’t what she had anticipated at all.Linnie was relieved that it wasn’t Abby Golden that Laxus had made that announcement with; maybe she would have been the one who collapsed, but at the same time, she was heartbroken and devastated.“He did it to spite me,” Linnie told herself all through the night.She could not sleep a wink!Of course Laxus had no idea that she was there, but he knew without a doubt that it would make the headlin
After The Announcement
The entire city was abuzz with new of Laxus’s abrupt marriage announcement on the day of the hamburger store launch.Right after the news, and after Abby Golden created a scene by passing out, almost every became chaotic. While the paramedics were trying to pay attention to Abby and get her back to consciousness, the bloggers, pressmen, paparazzi and media personality, people who were actually allowed into the venue so that they could capture the event, gathered around Nessy in the blink of an eye, bombarding her with questions.“Did you marry Mr. Laxus for money?”“Why a secret and suddenly wedding?”“Why wasn’t anyone invited?”“Are you both hiding something?”“Where did you come out from, because no one ever knew about you until now?”“Is this a marriage of love, convenience, or a contract marriage?” Nessy had almost fainted herself with the heat of their surrounding presence, because they hardly gave her any space to breathe, but she ensured that she did not open her mouth to res
The Big Announcement
The entire city was going ablaze again by the news of Laxus’s hamburger store launching.Every blogger and news press were talking about it. TV show hosts have nothing else to talk about other than it. All the bloggers and paparazzi were all gathered at the company already.It was a big day in Las Vegas, just like the day Laxus’s company was launched.“He is making waves, again,” Linnie said as she kept on reading posts about it from different blogging sites.She could not even keep her phone down. It was obvious that Laxus would soon become one of the biggest names in the city. Ever since the launching of his company, he had been soaring higher; way higher than the Kinkaid Distillery Company, even though Darwin would rather die than admit it. Now more than ever before, even though Linnie had been telling herself otherwise sometimes, she wished she hadn’t betrayed Laxus. Now, she wished that she stayed with him even when Darwin came with the offer to remain in the family by marrying
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
