The walls were painted a soothing shade of light brown, and the floors were made of dark hardwood, polished to a warm sheen. The ceiling was high and vaulted, with exposed beams that added to the rustic charm of the space.The cafe also offered the best selection of teas, hot chocolate, and fresh juices, making it the most classy of all the cafe's in San Marino.Lucy took a brief moment to scan through the area, her eyes moving from one end of the café to the other. Behind the counter, the baristas were busy crafting expertly made drinks, from rich and creamy lattes to bold and flavorful pour-overs. She took on a deep breath as she imagined herself taking a sip from o
Rise of the Pauper Son-in-law Chapter 99 (The Market Is Plummeting)
Prisca stood in the conference room, surrounded by the angry shareholders, having been instructed by Drake to be the one to address them. There had been a massive fall out of the market value of their investments and they could no longer trust their finances with the Sullivan's Holdings.Prisca knew she had a difficult task ahead of her, trying to convince them otherwise. She could feel the tension in the air as they insisted on taking their shares out.“Good day all. Look, I understand that you're concerned about the current state of the market, but pulling out your shares now may not be the best decision. Her voice was steady and composed, trying to convey a sense of reason and stability. Prisca wanted to assure the shareholders that Drake had their best interests in mind and was already on his toes trying to get where the entire problem was coming from.“But Prisca, the market is plummeting! We can't afford to stay invested in a sinking ship.” The shareholders' voices were filled
Rise of the Pauper Son-in-law Chapter 100 (Drake Deserves To Pay)
“Donald, please... We can find a way to resolve this without violence. Shooting either of us won't solve anything. Let's talk.” Her voice trembled with fear, but she refused to let it overpower her determination to find a peaceful resolution. Donald's eyes narrowed, his grip on the gun tightening as he contemplated Prisca's plea. His face contorted with anger and frustration. “There's nothing to talk about Prisca! Drake deserves to pay!” Donald spoke up, his voice filled with rage. "My life has become a total mess right from the very day I set foot in this organisation. I can no longer take this!"Drake, who sat on his chair, silently observing the tense exchange, finally spoke up, his voice filled with contempt, as he addressed Donald.“Donald, what were you thinking? That I'll just give you a job and treat you like nothing ever happened? You deserve everything you're getting from me right now, and there'll be more. You just wait and see,"Prisca couldn't believe her eyes that Drak
Rise of the Pauper Son-in-law Chapter 101 (Plot To Relaunch)
“This isn't good,” Rose's forehead creased slightly conveying a sense of unease, as she spoke on the phone with Hillary Koeman who otherwise was known as Mr. Anonymous, the fourth member of the IRIS.Killing Barrister Clark wasn't part of the plan from the beginning, but seeing that Drake wasn't ready to agree to her land proposal deal, it was the best available option.Moreover, Barrister Clark was about revealing the secret of IRIS to Drake, and they didn't want that. They wanted to keep Drake in the dark until they've achieved their plans, and then they would allow him to know the truth, so he could take the battle personal with his grandfather.With Barrister Clark already out of the picture, she was almost certain that there was no way the Sullivan's would win the case against the Simmons, and if that should happen, the Sullivan's would become vulnerable. Other standing cases against them would resurface and the empire would become weak. They would want to go into partnerships to
Rise of the Pauper Son-in-law Chapter 102 (Such An Evil Man)
The first court proceeding came to an end and the case was adjourned to a further date as the evidences against the Simmons were watered down by their lawyer, Mr. Johnson who was also one of the bests in the whole of San Marino."You are such an evil man!" The commoner who had interrupted the court hearing earlier vented out her anger on Mr. Simmons, ready to hit him, but the security personnel who had come with them prevented her from coming any closer."Tell that to whoever is sponsoring your course," Mr. Simmons blurted out harshly. "But believe me, I'm not going to lose to mere commoners, not even when the Sullivans are the ones sponsoring your course,"Mrs. Simmons held her husband by the hand, and with a triumphant smile, happy that the first day's hearing had been in their favour, took his arms, leading him out of the courtroom."We're not going to lose you," she turned towards Drake, her voice barely above a whisper, but Drake chose not to react as he and his grandfather made
Rise of the Pauper Son-in-law Chapter 103 (Who The Hell Are You)
The night sky was a deep, foreboding shade of indigo, with clouds that seemed to swirl and twist like living shadows. The air was heavy with an unsettling stillness, as if the very wind itself was holding its breath in anticipation of something.Summer was with Michelle in her room. She had fully recovered and had resumed her motherly duties towards Michelle, although, she was harbouring an unspoken resentment towards Drake, who hadn't come to see her since she returned from the hospital.Lucy had returned home already. She was already thinking of quitting her job since Summer had now returned to take care of Michelle, but Michelle wasn't ready to let her go yet.She was insisting for Lucy to still remain as her nanny as she has grown very much attached to her in the absence of her mother. Lucy decided to stay back not just because she had grown attached to Michelle on her own part, but because, she felt it would be easier to protect Michelle from Viking and his men, after what happe
Rise of the Pauper Son-in-law Chapter 104 (Michelle!)
It wasn't long after Rachel dropped the call, that a fleet of police cars pulled in front of the house, their sirens silent but their lights flashing ominously in the evening gloom.As the police officers pulled up in front of the door, just before they could gain entrance, Michelle's shrill cry was heard from the living room, causing everyone to wonder what it was that had made her scream from her sleep."Michelle!" Summer exclaimed as she rushed to Michelle's room and to see for herself why she had screamed from her sleep."Mom!" Summer could Michelle's heart pounding in her chest as she entered into Michelle's room, who was looking so scared, like she had seen a ghost or something."What's the matter baby?" Summer inquired, as she took her seat by Michelle's side on the bed, holding her hands and squeezing them gently."It was dad," Michelle replied, her heart still beating fast."What about your dad?" Summer asked, her curiosity piqued. Michelle tried to calm her nerves, her brea

Rachel's eyes blazed with anger as she confronted Summer in the living room, her fists clenched at her sides. "How could you defend him like that?" she demanded, her words tumbling out in a rush. "Right in front of the police officers, you stood up for him. Why? Don't you know what he's capable of?"Summer looked taken aback by her mother's intensity, but she stood her ground, her expression calm and serene. "I didn't defend him because I think he's innocent of everything," she said slowly, choosing her words carefully. "I defended him because I know he couldn't have made an attempt on father's life. There's no reason for it, mom. No motive, no gain. It just doesn't add up."Rachel's expression turned skeptical, her eyebrows shooting up in disbelief. "No reason? Are you kidding me? Have you bothered to ask yourself why he hasn't visited you since you were discharged from the hospital?""I don't know, but if there's one thing I do know, it's the fact that Drake can never be a killer.
