Rise Of The World's Overlord 58. "I'm sorry."
Chapter 58Having no answer to his question, Naya was just staring back at him, her lips quivering as she tried to come up with an answer. That morning after he had rushed out, she was enraged and so her mind began to run haywire, cooking up different scenarios for her and when she could bear it anymore, she decided to follow after him. She was curious and wanted to find out what he was really up to. Seeing Liam's angry stare, she couldn't bring herself to give him a response because she feared it was going to skyrocket his anger to the point where he wouldn't be able to control himself anymore. Biting her lips she bent her head, “I'm sorry.” “I didn't ask for your apology. I just want to know your reasons… reasons why you decided to tail me. It's not as if I told a lie, right from the very beginning, I had been always transparent with you… seems like you're still having a hard time trusting me.” He said with a shrug. Still having her head bowed to the ground, Naya let out a sigh
Rise Of The World's Overlord 59. Yes, I am married!
Chapter 59The next day, Naya woke up with a splitting headache which made her grab her head with both hands as she winced in pain. For more than five minutes, she remained in one spot, trying to remember the event of the previous night but her head was blank. Reaching out for her phone on the lamp stand, she turned it on only to see a message from Liam and at once she clicked it. 'Some hangover medicine is on the table.’ — the message read. Without giving it a second thought, she made her way towards the table and shoved the drugs down her throat before emptying the bottle of water down her gullet. Though her splitting headache was abated she was still under the effect of the drug that she had to walk slowly towards her bed and then slump on it with a thud. The next time she woke up, it was already past eight am and once again on her study table was a tray of food. She didn't need anyone to tell her it was all Liam's handiwork and so she immediately reached out for it. Shoving
Rise Of The World's Overlord 60. How dare you???
Chapter 60To this, Naya didn't give a response, instead she clenched her fists tightly with her head buried to the floor. Now laughing, Sandra rose from the arm of the couch and then returned to the couch she had been occupying. Flipping through her invitation cards, she scrunched her brows as if she was looking for something and after what seemed like forever, she snapped her head up and with her gaze narrowed on Naya, she smacked her lips. “I don't have a card to spare with that lowlife.” She mused and at once Sam and Nathan burst into a mocking laughter. They were so happy that Sandra didn't try to take Naya's side even for a second. “He wouldn't even be allowed to cross the gate.” Nathan said. “Exactly! Why should I spare him a card then?” She asked with a shrill voice and once again the trio burst into a mocking laughter.Sitting there, Naya clenched her fists more tightly as she glared at them. She was expecting her grandmother who was sitting in the middle of the living r
Rise Of The World's Overlord 61. "How do I look?"
Chapter 61When Naya told Liam about what had ensued that morning while they were having dinner, Liam couldn't help but to laugh out loud even when she didn't find it funny. She kept on frowning while Liam on the other hand couldn't control his emotions. He was glad she had shut Sandra up otherwise he was certain the trend would continue. “It's not funny, I really wonder why you're laughing now.” Naya said, rolling her eyes before she took a long drink from her glass. Tilting her head to the side, she let out a low sigh before returning her attention to Liam who was staring at her. “Is it really funny?” She asked, peering at his face carefully as if she was studying a specimen. “Of course it is. I wonder what your cousins derive from making fun of you.” He added with a chuckle while she just looked on, her hands wrapped across her chest. When she couldn't swallow the question budging her anymore, she leaned towards him and with her hands clasped, she asked, “How in heaven's name
Rise Of The World's Overlord 62. You look gorgeous...
Chapter 62With her hands folded across her chest and her brows scrunched up in disgust, Naya shook her head sideways. They had finished shopping for her party dress about half an hour ago and now it was Liam's turn.“Are you saying I should go back in there and change my clothes for the hundredth time?” He asked. This time around, he didn't bother to hide his displeasure, it was as if the next minute, he was going to explode with anger. “Stop whining, will you?” Naya shot back with a little chuckle while he tossed his head to the side, face palming himself and at the same wishing he did his private shopping while she was doing hers. “You're a pain in the ass.” He said under his breath while Naya just laughed. The shopping which she thought was going to be boring had turned out to be something she never expected. Bonding with Liam this way made her forget about her worries and she didn't want it to stop even for a second. “If you refuse this time around, I will have no choice but
Rise Of The World's Overlord 63. Speaking about marriage...
Chapter 63Titling his head to the side, Silvan wanted to shut her up but he couldn't bring himself to do so. As much as he was convinced that Sandra had put up the show earlier, he was also tempted to believe that they were couples. All the while he was thinking they were friends and nothing more but with Sandra and Lily speaking about marriage to Liam, he became confused. Clearing his throat to get Lily's attention, he had his middle finger under his nostrils and when she finally turned towards him, he cleared his throat before saying, “Are you certain with what you're saying?” He asked, staring intently at her. “Of course… don't tell me you didn't…” Lily was still speaking with her tone bursting with excitement since she already got the needed attention but her joy was cut short when Sandra joined them..Now standing beside Silvan just like she had always wanted since he had a long crush on him, she placed her hand on his shoulder and then leaned towards him, “She is right.” St
Rise Of The World's Overlord 64. Stop fooling yourself.
Chapter 64Still struggling to reach out to her despite his blurry vision, Liam burped, holding the edge of the table for support as he squinted. Suddenly, his phone fell through his hand into the ground and with a low sigh, he rested his head against the table, shutting his eyes tightly. This helped a bit but the next second when he opened his eyes, the pains came rushing in that he had to bite his lower lips as he let out a low growl of discomfort. The loud music that was blaring from the speakers and the merry voice wasn't helping matters a bit. It was as if the next minute he was going to pass out but he held on. Naya was missing, that was the topmost issue on his mind. The more he thought about it, the more scared he became. Granny Elena had asked both of them to attend her friend's party only for her granddaughter to go missing, of course, he was in big trouble. Nathan and Sam will also get the opportunity they had been waiting for to lash him and this time around since h

Chapter 65While all these were going on, Sandra, Silvan, and Sam, the orchestrator of the whole chaos were in the hall, waiting for the right time for them to launch their plans.Immediately the waiter whom they had asked to do the job walked up to them with a smile etched on his lips, they became pumped up, ready to go ahead with the next phase of their plan.Blinded with rage, Silvan had suggested to Sam and Sandra to do something to Liam and they both accepted. Naya was involved in this because Sandra wanted to get a pound of her flesh and Sam wanted to make Granny Elena withdraw her offer of giving her a spot in the family company. “Ready?” Silvan asked and at once Sandra nodded. Pulling herself up, she walked up to the podium and then grabbed a microphone. When all attention was turned in her direction, she began to sob uncontrollably, making everyone present to be worried. She kept on with this act for a while before she finally announced to the guest that Liam and Naya had

262. The End.
Six months later… The county had returned to normalcy after a thorough reform was put in place. To honor those that had made it happen, a mass meeting was organized where all members of the country were invited to be a witness to. Tyler Greene, the newly appointed President, was present in the mass meeting, being an icon in the revamped version of the country. His face was brightly marked with excitement, as he left the smile on his face and was distributing it to the citizens, who were seeing him. They had come in their masses as they wanted to witness the occasion first hand."First, I'll formally announce the reason for his honorable, reasonable and democratic meeting." Tyler started, his voice cool at first, accompanied with the sound of his laughter. "We all know about the change in the course of events in this country and those who made it happen.." Tyler spoke with clear gladness and couldn't hide it. Tyler's vice was beside him, holding a thick colored banner in his han

261. It's all in the past.
Daniel's voice was loud, as he kept making gestures with his hands. He was seated with his friends, conversing with them about the current news that spread around the country. Suddenly, someone rushed into their midst and exclaimed, "I heard another news…" "What's that, boy?" Daniel said, his voice breaking confidently, as if he would not be shaken by Liam's dealings. "Tell me, what's the news?" "The deal you made…" the boy started, but as soon as Daniel realized it was about a deal, he took the boy to a side to continue their talk in whispers. "The deal you strongly made and stamped with Karl had been released and broadly spread!" "What deal?" Daniel questioned him out of shock, and was rubbing his face until he stopped, as asked the boy again, "I don't get you. What deal?" "The chip infusion." The boy replied, his voice lighter as soon as he sensed anger in Daniel's voice."What!" Daniel reacted, as he nearly collapsed. "You know what? Just run away!" "To where?" The boy ask

260. What's the news?
Alaric had gone back to the operating room, and was still in bed. Fortunately, the surgeon realized he was all right. Alaric was totally healed, but he happened to have lost his memory. His constant surrender to Karl was all robotic. He was later brought from the operation room to a ward, on instruction that he needed to rest. "Hello?" A surgeon asked him. "What do you feel now?" "Feel what?" Alaric returned, his voice clear but light. "What do you mean?" "Oh, I know you're just coming back to normalcy…" the surgeon said, turning to his colleagues. "Do you think he is totally okay?" "Yeah," another surgeon responded, walking up to Alaric to check on him. "I think we should seek the attention of the senior surgeon, so he can see him." "Is that necessary?" The first surgeon questioned in return, holding her lips as she smiled. "Well, you can. At least, he is all right." Soon, the senior surgeon was around. He turned to the first surgeon and whispered to her ears, "I hope no chi

259. "Take this call!"
Kaylan didn't perform less than she was asked to do. She had spread the news of Rodriguez's illegal dealings vastly. Liam had ordered the release of the article which contained almost everything about Rodriguez and Karl. Rodriguez had felt comfortable with Karl's soothing words, continuing his illegal business with Karl became easy for him that he had no remorse, and even hid his fears about any form of leakage. "How far have you gone with the task I gave you?" Liam asked Kaylan, his voice deep but clear, an expression of his excitement. "In what state could the biotech company be, right now?" He mused. "I've forwarded the news to my team." Kaylan replied, returning a clearer tone in her own voice. "It will reach the masses easily that way…""I'll prove to Karl that I can thwart his schemes and nullify all his tricks." Liam chuckled, his voice making him sound like a villain and threatening Karl's attitude as though he was present. "Exactly, Liam." Kaylan responded in agreement.

258. I have evidence...
To spice up their plans, Liam had mailed a flashdrive to Rodriguez. The flash drive contained all the information they had gathered about him and Karl. Rodriguez made up his mind not to return the flash drive as he had a conclusion that something important was attached to it and so he was curious to find out the content. With that he made his way back to his office and as the Chief Justice he sat behind his imposing mahogany desk in the room.His eyes were fixed on the small, sleek flash drive that had been tossed on the table. The audacity of Liam to think of doing this hit him but he smiled while the question popped in his mind.Who did he think he was, trying to blackmail him?What was on his mind?Curiosity getting the better of him, Rodriguez inserted the drive into his computer and waited as the files began to load. Suddenly, the screen flickered to life, revealing an array of documents and recordings. Rodriguez's eyes widened on seeing the images which had himself includ

257. A risk we must take.
Madam Aurelia began walking in circles inside the living room as thoughts of what they were going to do next consumed her thoughts. She was still recovering from what she had seen in the file that Dave had brought, and the evidence was sickening. There was no doubt as to whether Karl and Rodriguez were crooks, and should they manage to expose them, it would definitely influence the outcome in their favor.Liam walked into the room, “Did you manage to find anything good among the papers?” He inquired, looking eager and hopeful.“Yes.” Madam Aurelia replied, gripping the folder firmly. “There are records of money movement as well as transactions which are quite illicit. If we conduct this campaign in the proper manner and present the right audiences with this evidence, the extent of Karl and Rodriguez’s dealings… It would be interesting corruption news that will come to light.”“Then we have no time to waste.” Liam affirmed in his stern tone. “Whatever this information gives us, they

256. This is perfect!
Liam stepped out of Tyler Greene’s office with a heavy heart, blaming himself for keeping his expectations high. He had wanted a better answer than that. However, Tyler’s indecision was a cause for concern. Time was running fast and voices of opposition against Karl were still weak. During the drive home, Liam found himself troubled. Would Tyler really lend his support for the cause? Or was he simply yet another hindrance in their efforts? He needed to collect his mind and think of a way out but he was too worried to even think properly. Instead of heading to him, Liam headed to the hotel to meet with Madam Aurelia who sat in the living room in the living room on his arrival. Her face was solemn, though she appeared to be happy with his arrival. “How did the meeting with Tyler go?” she asked, concern evident in her tones.“It didn’t go as well as I hoped.” Liam admitted, ruffling his hair. “He is not willing to take any actions against Karl, and I am afraid he has no nerves f

255. We need to strategize...
Liam stood still only to start pacing about because he was restless. He began to plan what step to take after Alaric's revelation. He was desperate to put an end to Daniel and Karl but he didn’t know how to go about it. He felt like an ill-fated knight who had lost everything; the very thought of Harrison now felt as if it was a heavy stone placed over him.Madam Aurelia was seated on the table sorting some papers. “We need to strategize on how best we are going to eliminate Karl.” Her tone was firm although not loud. “It is not enough to just wait and see what he intends to do next.” She added, casting him a glance. “Of course I understand,” Liam answered and twirls his hair with his fingers. “But what can we do? There is too much influence and too many people surrounding him.”At this point, Giovanni dashed into the living room, his eyes darkened as he looked around, “Liam!” he shouted – gasping for air. “Daniel and Karl are up to something. We must hurry before it is too late.”

254. This is very bad.
Alaric felt dejected in that small dingy room as he was at a stand still. He found himself strapped to a chair with metal rings cutting deep into his wrists. On the other side of the room, Xavier was strutting around confident with a sneer on his face. “Look at you now, Alaric ” Xavier said as he put his hands on his hips and laughed. “Formerly you had stature, nowadays you are just a flat back guy. What do you think about it?”Alaric turned his gaze toward him, internal rage reflected on his face. “You think this is a joke? You’re a mere puppet in Karl’s shadow. You will realize that one day.”Xavier let out another laugh. “Karl is top management. You would have done better staying with him. Instead, you went soft and turned the other way, and now look what this has led you to.”“Break all the connections with Karl.” Alaric spoke in a strained tone. “He’ll drain you dry. You will end up exactly like me.”Xavier shook his head but his grin had gone away. “You do not get it. This is
