One of the guests who came in from the restroom outside recognized Jack. He was his cousin and they grew up together, the only one in the midst of the hall who could talk to him freely without fear. "What are you doing here, Jack?" He shouted from a distance. Seeing the circumstances of things and how Leo was ready to fight with Jack, he turned towards him. "Do you know who you are playing with?" He sighed. "You're playing with fire and it will surely burn you. Don't say I didn't warn you!" Ethan was trying to impact fear into Leo but Leo didn't even looked at him twice. "Get that fucking mouth of yours shut or I'll leave him and deal with you!" Ethan shrugged, stepping back. Jack took him by the wrist some distance away and whispered into his ears. "Listen, now I want you to stay out of this. The princess paid me to get my men here to eliminate Clara but he stood up for her and so far has done farther than I could ever imagine in beating my men." Ethan stepped aside from him upon
Clara laid on the floor groaning in pains, Henry and Elene consoled her till she was back to her feet. "Where's him?" She asked as she was back to consciousness. "Who?" Elene asked her with an irritated face. At this point, her position didn't mean anything. She was angry that her boss still asked for the man that humiliated her. She thought that it would be either Leo or Jack she was asking about. "I mean Leo." "Hmm," she scoffed. "Why are you asking about him when he assaulted you. Don't you have respect for yourself?" "Do you even know the reason I'm asking?" Clara signaled both her and Henry to leave the hall. Looking around, there was no one and there were traces of blood. She feared that should they be caught here, they would be suspected. "I'm a bit worried Jack's men might come after us. He has created this problem, and now he's gone. Such a person can run away to anywhere." "Exactly," Elene confirmed. "Let's be going out of here now! The princess is gone, Leo is gone. W
Melissa walked in front of Leo leading the way as they arrived at the palace. Leo forgot and thought she was going towards the residential part of the palace when Melissa signaled him. "We are going to my office, we have this important issue to talk about." She told him. He didn't need to think too much, he suspected it was going to be about the rivalry between her and Clara, who he preferred more but he still had to listen, it could be something entirely different. He told himself. As they arrived at the office, they sat down. There was no waste of time as Melissa began. "So tell me, Leo, who do you want between me and Clara?" It rang exactly the way he expected, he snapped his fingers in amazement. "What are you doing?" Melissa who thought he was mocking her asked. "I'm asking you a serious question and you're joking over it?" He furrowed his brows. "What do you mean, Melissa?" He thought she was joking nit until he saw her serious face. He was forced to believe he had taken
Leo upon returning from seeing the king got so tired, he wondered what was going on. He had never been this tired. This visit brought him much hope that soon things would change. "Melissa thinks I'll forever be under her but things will soon work out differently." When he went to the office, the king sat him down, asking what he wanted. "I'll do it for you, just tell me." "Your majesty, I'd love to be an independent man so I don't get to feed too much from your daughter's support." He was really serious about this and for two hours, this was what he was discussing with the king who took him as a son. He returned to his apartment, hoping to have some rest. *********In a fairly lit apartment in the palace in the late hours of the afternoon......Leo saw himself with Melissa lying down on the bed, something that rarely happened, they were having a little chat."Melissa, Melissa . Come on wake up, you've been sleeping for a long time now. I want to speak with you." "Leo, I'm trying
As she was saying that, a guy also came out, in a silver suit. He came and wrapped his arms around her waist."What's wrong baby, come on let's go back in"As he said that, his eyes and her eyes met with Leo's.Fuck.Leo couldn't believe it, he couldn't believe his eyes."What are you doing here? Hmph, took you long enough"She said nonchalantly.There was no remorse on her end, she didn't care and was obviously mad that he was there."How could you do this to me?""How about you take a look at yourself first. Who would date you when you dress like that?"The guy that came with her cut in."Riley come on let's go in, he's not worth it"Melissa said, staring intensely at Leo with deadly eyes."By the way Leo, this is my boyfriend. And I'm celebrating my third Anniversary with him today. I don't know what you think you are but sorry, we're officially done. I can't believe you were so slow to see something that was so obvious""Melissa , how could...""Oh please shut the fuck up alread
She got really upset and angry, blowing things out of proportion."You must think I'm joking with you!"She picked up her phone and dialed a number."Your Majesty!""Yes Melissa . I'm at a meeting right now, try and be respectful for once!""There's a bigger issue right now. I don't know what happened but I found a random stranger on my bed in the lounge and it seems I was overpowered and molested because I got drunk last night. Send help!""What? Who? Who would dare do that to my princess? Who is he?" He thundered. "Some random stranger, I'm so scared. I'll share my location with you.""I'm coming, I'm coming right this instant!"The person from the other end said, scaring the living daylight out of Leo."Motherfucker, that was my dad on the line and he'll be here any minute, then you'll explain what the fuck happened here properly. I'm going to clean up. Oh, and don't bother running away, we'll find you anywhere. Just stay here and accept what you get once, that's what my brother
Take him!"Mr Leo, you're officially arrested for raping my sister and princess, your girlfriend I think." He smirked, feeling that Melissa was too great for a poor man like Leo. "Take this smelly bastard out of here and clean this place up! My Melissa chills here, and makes it snappy!""Yes Sir"The maids there chorused as he left.It was a thirty minutes drive to the estate and Leo could only wish he would get out of this confined space on time. He was at the back of a big trunk, filled with hefty men and he was being paraded like some sort of a criminal. Everyone turned against him at such a time.What about work?How would he meet up?Would he eventually lose his job after so many warnings that he had got? Even when they'll see him on the news as a criminal?He just wished the earth would open up at that moment and swallow him, just for him from this mess and let him be. But he knew that if wishes were horses, beggars would ride.The long journey finally came to an end and he go
While Dylan smiled excitedly like a lost puppy that had finally found its owner, Leojust stood totally dumbstruck.Is this luck?Leo thought to himself, but everything was still really overwhelming."Mr Louis, apparently the circumstances surrounding me finding you here is pretty messy""Did you really rape those girls? Just let me know, we can easily take care of it either way""I'm not a rapist. I promise I didn't rape any of them. I had consensual sex with both of them. I don't understand why Melissa decided to do what she did, even Melissa ""Well I don't know who those people are, but apparently you have a lot of enemies. Even more now with your new state of wealth""State of wealth?"Leo's face lit up upon hearing the news."Of course, yes ""So what's going to happen now?""Oh, I'll have to tell you lots of stuff including what happened. Maybe your enemies as well. They won't be happy that you've been found""Who? Please who?"Leo asked, visibly agitated."Just calm down let m
