Rise Of The Rightful Heir Two Notorious Options
After his conversation with Nessy, while Laxus appreciated the fact that she did not rope him in even though she could have easily done so just to set herself free, Laxus decided that he would rather stay away from Nessy.Not that she was a bad person, but Laxus realized that Linnie was now trying to use Nessy to get to him, so the earlier he detached himself from her, the better off he might be.Regardless of what was going on, Laxus needed a job, and he needed one really fast. He was very broke and penniless now, and in one time, if he did not get a job, he might starve to death. Laxus knew that it would be difficult getting a job without proper recommendation, and worse now that he already had a prison record, so he decided to go for menial jobs. It would not meet most of his needs and get him a new apartment, but it would put food on his table for now.Also, Laxus would live in a rock, away from his manipulative and callous family if push comes to shoves.Laxus made a turn on the
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Repackaged Offer
Laxus arrived in Bowman’s house being driven by his driver and bodyguard in the front seat.Laxus hated to be here, but then again, he would rather face a harmless Bowman and tell him to his face once again that he wasn’t interested in his offer, and that he would never be interested, rather than face another rigorous interrogative section with a detective who wanted nothing but to see Laxus jailed for something he did not do.Laxus had been somewhat satisfied when he caught the detective’s regretful face as he watched Laxus jump into Bowman’s car and the driver drove off at top speed, but that satisfaction had long expired when Laxus realized that he was not going to a place he liked either.“Please, come out of the car,” the bodyguard said. He had opened the door for more than five minutes now, but Laxus hadn’t made a move to get down from the car, so he had to say the words.“I want to leave,” Laxus demanded.It was a ridiculous thing to say, especially with the way he had jumped i

“I already have everything in motion, so all you just need to do is take your position as the CEO,” Bowman explained.Laxus still stared at Bowman like a zombie as his rejection words died in his throat. “CEO?” Laxus asked.He was not dumb; becoming the CEO wasn’t the same thing as overseeing it. If one was the CEO of any establishment, just like his father, it meant that the person had full or half ownership of that establishment. Bowman’s word had been for Laxus to oversee it, and now he was mentioning CEO.Laxus felt like it was still the same trap that was packaged in a different way.“Yes, CEO,” Bowman responded; that was to show that he knew exactly what he was talking about and that his earlier mention of it wasn’t a slip of the tongue.“You want me to take ownership of the company,” Laxus stated the obvious. “I already told you that I wasn’t interested in taking anything from you,” Laxus added. He was not going to sell his conscience and worth for anything. Laxus might have co
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Final Acceptance
Laxus stared deeply at Bowman, but the older man was not moved.“This is still about my family, right?” Laxus asked when he felt that Bowman was taking too much time in answering his question. As Laxus asked the question, he was already boiling hot in his system.He wondered when Bowman would ever realize that Laxus would never accept to be used as a tool against his own family. They might be apart now, and they might be against him, but Laxus did not hate his father and brother, and if anything at all, he had no intentions of paying back their evil. The only thing that Laxus wanted deeply was to have enough to be able to protect himself when they would strike again. He wanted to be able stand his ground and not let them treat him like a common criminal or their sworn enemy simply because he turned and never looked back.“The truth or what you want to hear; which do you want?” Bowman eventually asked.“The truth,” Laxus answered, but deep down, his heart was beating.He knew that he a

“I saw what you did there, Luther,” Linnie barked at Luther, referring to the business party they had both attended.“What are you talking about?” Luther asked casually.He wasn’t in the mood for Linnie’s whining, because he was having a good morning, and his day always went well when he did not have to deal with Linnie. Talking to her gave off bad energies that Luther would rather not have today. Ever since the party, he had been feeling really good, and he just wished Linnie would leave him alone so that he could dwell and revel in the goodness that he was feeling.“You and Abby Golden!” Linnie answered, her voice hitting the roof.They both heard scurrying feet; an indication that their domestic workers were eavesdropping on their conversation, or argument anyway.“You all better get back to work or your poverty-stricken asses will be fired and sent back to the slum where you all belong!” Linnie yelled loudly and her voice echoed everywhere in their mansion.She was very enraged an
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Only Good For One Thing
Luther and Linnie had been so engrossed with their argument that they didn’t even notice when Darwin entered their home.Darwin looked very cross, and Linnie hoped that he was angry at the both of them and not just her as usual, because he always acted as though she was the problem and never blamed or cautioned his son for treating her like a piece of garbage.“What is wrong with you?” Darwin asked Linnie pointedly.Linnie cocked her head in shock. Luther was obviously the last person who spoke, and yet, she was the one being questioned. Linnie looked at Luther just in time to see the smirk on her face, and she grew more upset. “He…” Linnie started to defend herself, but Darwin stopped her with a wave of his hand.“Keep quiet, Linnie; that was a fucking rhetorical question,” Darwin scolded, making Linnie feel embarrassed and insulted. “You don’t get it, do you?” Darwin asked. Then he walked closer to Linnie and said deeply, “You are just a Kinkaid wife who hasn’t even secured her pla
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

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
The Meet-Up
Laxus waited for Linnie at the location he sent to her. It was a private place, and because of his standing in the city, he was assured of privacy.Laxus would not have demanded for privacy in this manner, but he needed to address and correct things. He also knew that he should have just gone about this the legal way, but judging by Darwin’s lawsuit threat, if he went right ahead with legal restriction orders, they might twist the narrative and say that Laxus was only doing it because of what he was being accused of, and knowing how gullible the public were, they would buy it hook, line, and sinker.Laxus knew without a doubt that Linnie would show up and show he waited for her patiently, and he was right; Linnie walked right in a couple of minutes later. She had a smile on her face, but as Laxus set his eyes on her, his stomach recoiled in anger.“Have you ordered something for me? You have always known what I like and gotten it correctly,” Linnie said sweetly.Laxus was only having
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
