Rise Of The World's Overlord 26. Breaking the silence.
Chapter 26Immediately he climbed out of Naya’s car, he flagged down a taxi, urging the chauffeur to speed off so she wouldn't have the chance to try talking him into accepting her decision. A few minutes into the drive, he turned around and when he didn't see the black sedan, he relaxed only to return his attention to Rose. He knew she was going to ask where he had been since the previous day and also about the bills which were now settled. At this point, he had nothing to say to her and so he was shifting uneasily in his seat to the extent that the chauffeur noticed it but before he could raise the issue, he scoffed at him. On reaching the hospital, he paid his fare and then began to walk hurriedly into the hospital. When he got to the ward, he was about to push the door in when a nurse walked up to him. Arranging her glances, she looked over him before asking, “Who are you?”That was the exact question Liam had wanted to ask but since she asked first, he had to give her a resp
Rise Of The World's Overlord 27. I had a really long day!
Chapter 27.When he had finished propping Rose to get some rest he swirled around but before he could take a step, she held onto his hands. “Are you leaving already?” She asked, peering at him. “No.” he replied with a chuckle as he used his free hand to comb through his hair. When Rose wouldn't let go of his hand, he crouched beside her and then began to run his fingers on her arm, trying to soothe her. “I just wanted to take a walk outside the ward.” “And then you will leave only to return three days later.” She scowled. She didn't want Liam to leave her in the ward all alone, which explains why she was acting up. “I won't. Don't worry, I will stay here until after breakfast tomorrow.” “Really?”“Uhm…” Nodding towards the sofa, he said, “I want to rest my head. I had a really long day.” “Sure.” She replied positively and then let go of his hand. Immediately he fell on the couch, he shut his eyes and that was how he remained until the next morning. “Just a few minutes past tw
Rise Of The World's Overlord 28. Emotionally drained...
Chapter 28. The journey of going to meet with his mother took more than half an hour. Though exhausted, he didn't say it out, he had to bear since he was curious to learn about his family. Considering the luxury vehicle, he was expecting the cars to head towards one of the most popular estates or the area where the elites in the society lives but instead they skidded into a dirt road. “What's happening here?” He asked with his eyes almost bulging out. He didn't want to believe that they had deceived him only to end up kidnapping him when he fell for their trap. At this moment, the only thing on his mind was Rose who was still lying on the hospital bed. He was scared knowing that if anything eventually happens to him, then it would be tough on Rose too. “We are heading to our destination.” The leader replied. Still trying to wrap his head around the current situation, Liam began to fiddle with his fingers as he stared straight ahead. He was praying and hoping that they weren't u
Rise Of The World's Overlord 29. Lost in wonder?
Chapter 29.When the ladies disappeared behind the door, his mother held his hand and then made him sit beside her, intertwining her fingers with her. Instead of his mind running with different ideas like usual, Liam felt a wave of calmness washing through him. It was as if he had known her for a long time and they were just reuniting after being separated for a while. About fifteen minutes later, one of the ladies returned and she did a curt bow, she said, “The table is set for lunch.” Holding his hand, his mother rose and then pulled him up. With her gaze fixed on him, she said, “Let's go have lunch.” “Yeah.” He replied with a nod and together, they made their way towards the dining room. Once again, Liam couldn't help but marvel at the sight of the dining room. Since he didn't have ample time in taking in the appearance of the living room, he decided to take in that of the dining room. Looking around with his hands clasped together whilst taking careful steps, he couldn't hel
Rise Of The World's Overlord 30. After a lengthy silence...
Chapter 30.For a while, no one said a word. While Liam was waiting for a response to his question, she was drumming her fingers against the table as she thought of the best response to give to himAfter a lengthy silence, she cleared her throat to get his attention and when she had it, she said, “Right here in this city, we have some clean and surface businesses and fortunately most of the people here have no idea on who your father is.” “Oh… I see.” He mumbled as he smacked his lips. He wanted to ask about the business they owned but since he didn't want to be forward, he restricted himself, his gaze fixed on her. Suddenly, he pulled the album towards himself, and using the screen of his phone, he began to compare and contrast his features with that of his father. He was an exact replica of him that explains how she was able to find him after twenty years. Pushing the album aside, he turned towards her with his hands still clasped together. “You recognized me even after twenty
Rise Of The World's Overlord 31. FUCK YOU!
Chapter 31After leaving the mansion, he decided to head straight for the hospital but on a second thought, he changed my direction to his home. Moreover, he hadn't been there since the previous day and so he had to clean up and also get some rest before returning to face Rose. “Please type your address on the dashboard.” The driver said, his gaze on him. “Drop me off at the bus stop.” he replied, pushing behind the weird looks he was receiving. Just when he was about to make a fuss about his request, the leader held his shoulder. “Do as he had said.” He said. “Okay.” His response was out of defeat. Asking him to take him directly to my home wasn't the issue. The issue was, he didn't want people to start poking noses into his affairs, trying to get knowledge about him. He had always kept a low profile and he wanted it to remain that way. Midway through the journey, he pushed his hand into his pocket and then pulled out his phone. After staring at his mom's contact for a while,
Rise Of The World's Overlord 32. "Gold digger alert!'
Chapter 32The chirping birds who always found their way to Liam’s window each morning were already pecking at his window and as usual, he was angry with them. Using his pillow to cover his ears, he sank deep into his bed, trying to get more sleep to make up for being late to bed last night after studying until after midnight. Annoyed, he tossed the pillow aside and with a frown on his face, he walked towards his window and then chased the birds away. “I need to put up a mini scarecrow to chase them off.” He scoffed, returning to his bed. Just as he was about to fall back and resumed sleeping,his phone which was resting on his study table began to buzz. With a scowl this time around, he stormed towards the table. “Jake?” He called aloud, staring at the screen of his phone. Jake was his friend and also a classmate. “What do you want?” He asked, irritation evident in his tone. “Why are you sounding like that, is there a problem?” Jake asked on the other end. “No.” “The first bu
Rise Of The World's Overlord 33. You're not in her league...
Chapter 33At the instant, it was as if a bucket of cold water was doused on the body of everyone that was present at the time. No one said a word, they just maintained their positions, their gaze fixed on them and their lips parted with shock. “No way.” Prisca yelled, she was the leader of the school cheerleading team and seeing Naya kissing Liam in front of them made her livid. She was fuming with anger because she felt Naya had stooped so low to share a kiss with Liam who had no class. “Dammit! He is going to rip you off all your money if you keep on with your relationship.” She yelled from where she stood and soon, the whole place was thrown into chaos. Everyone wanted to talk and not listen. Annoyed with Naya’s sudden kiss, Liam pulled away, though he didn't make it obvious. With a slight frown on his face, he leaned towards her, “Why do you choose to embarrass me, here of all places.” “I didn't embarrass you.” She whispered back. Pulling away from him, she placed her hand
