Steve and Colton paid Henry and Patrickson a visit the next day. "I didn't see you or your father at the coronation yesterday." Steve asked. "Why would we come?" Henry replied. "To watch him bast in my glory?" He further added. Steve sighed. He felt Henry's pain. "Forgive my son, he's been going through a lot." Patrickson begged. "I understand." Steve replied. "He has every right to be forlorn." He added. "You deserve to be the Prime Minister, not that piece of mud. You are the rightful person." Colton said to Henry. "But I'm not. Leo has taken it. That nobody has taken what was supposed to be mine." Henry continued to lament. "The boy is a fraud and has successfully blinded the king with his games." Patrickson said. "No. My brother is foolish and blinded by Leo's mediocrity." Steve replied. "That's why the kingdom needs me." He further said. "We just need one win and everything will be ours." Patrickson said. "I just want my position as the Prime Minister of this count
Leo and Melissa went home exhausted. They stayed through the whole event, then the after party. Leo had to meet and greet all the top men of the country who were at the occasion. "Alas!" Leo said as he fell to the bed with a deep sigh. His fiancé laughed at him. "Is this how tired you'll always be when you come back from work?" She asked him. "You have no idea." He replied. "Well, you need to take off your clothes and have a shower." She advised. Leo sat up and took a deep breath then followed her towards the bathroom. He couldn't wait to have his goodnight sleep. He thought to himself that he finally had everything he dreamt up. A good partner, a high ranking job. The kind of job he never dreamt of. He was finally at peace. Little did he know that his enemies had come up with new ways to destroy him.***At Henry's house***Clara was on the bed, not asleep. She had a lot on her mind and couldn't wait for him to come in, so she could spill it all out. After Henry was done with
Melissa celebrated with her friends, regarding her finance's victory. "I think we can work together now." One of her friends, who is the daughter of an affluent businessman said to her. "We can." Melissa replied. Now that he was the prime minister, it also opened chances for her to invest properly. They partied the whole morning. Clara was qualified to be at the party, but since she was not friends with Melissa, she couldn't go. At home, Clara thought to herself that she couldn't let Henry get away with whatever he was planning. At the same time, she was confused about what to do. She knew she couldn't talk to Leo and Melissa due to their present chaos. She soon decided to pay her mother a visit. Mrs. Linn was seated on her couch, watching TV when she heard a knock on the door. She soon stood up and opened it. It was her daughter. "My daughter!" She exclaimed, happy to see Clara, but Clara's demeanor made her think otherwise. "Come inside and have a seat my angel." She sai
Driving home, Clara reflected on her past. That might not have been the reason why she went to see Melissa, but Melissa was right. She was a gold digger and liar. Clara thought to herself that she had to make it right. "I have to make it right." Leo was focused on his work the next day when his secretary knocked and came in."Isabel, is there a problem?" He asked. "Someone is here to see you." She responded. "Who could come see me uninvited?" He thought to himself. "Who is it?" He asked. "It's the king's son." She answered. "It's no wonder why he could come so direct unannounced. Only the Royal family had such power." "Let him in." He said. She replied "okay" and left. Few minutes later, Colton entered the office. "Prince Colton!" Leo greeted. "How are you doing today?" Colton didn't answer as he went on looking at the artworks in the office. "I didn't see you after the coronation." He added, trying to start a conversation with Colton, but Colton still did not answer. Le
FEW DAYS AGO BEFORE LEO'S CORONATIONHenry was a smart man but he wasn't totally smart to do things on his own.He always has his father running up and down to cover up his evil doings. “I don't know what this man might be pulling out there but I know that he must be up to something. I expected this to happen but not so quickly.” Leo wondered aloud as he sat in the open yard to think straight.If Henry was trying to salvage the situation of his bankrupted company so soon, then it could only mean one thing. That was the reason why he laid so low and didn't make any attempts to attack or come after him.He knew that Henry won't back down but what amused him was Henry not coming after him. It was very obvious that he was getting his support from a higher end which must be his father.He was surprised to see how low he laid for the time being but fear and worry began to get to Leo of when Henry would strike.For him to keep up with the calculations, he needed to know how far Henry had go
"I don't know what else to do," Leo said, running his hands through his hair. "I feel like we're running out of options. I'm open to suggestions, but I just don't see any other way."Melissa sat down on the couch, feeling defeated. "Maybe we could talk to someone else," she suggested. "A professional, like a lawyer or an accountant. Someone who could help us figure this out."Leo nodded. "That's not a bad idea," He said. "But who could we trust? We need someone who is both trustworthy and discreet."Sir Patrickson sat at his desk, staring at the stacks of paperwork in front of him. He sighed, wishing he could be anywhere else but here. Just then, there was a knock on the door."Come in," Sir Patrickson called, and the door opened to reveal Mr. Jones, one of his most loyal employees. Mr. Jones was always eager to please, and he had never let Sir Patrickson down."You wanted to see me, sir?" Mr. Jones asked, bowing slightly.“Any news?” He asked as he continued with what he was doing. S
“No, no, no. This is not good at all.” Melissa heard Leo panicking.“What happened? What is wrong?” She asked him.“It's Henry. Why will he send me such a text message? How was it supposed to concern me?” He asked Melissa as he looked a little bit dazed and confused.“What message is that?” Melissa asked as she took away the phone from Henry when he wasn't saying a thing.She popped out her eyes as she couldn't believe what she saw on the screen.“Is this for real? What is this?” Melissa asked Leo who also looked at her confused.“I don't know. I'm as confused as you are but let us not take it seriously. Let's just ignore it.” Leo advised.“Ignore? What if this was supposed to be a trap?” Melissa replied with a question.“What trap?” Leo asked her.“I don't know but then to think of it, why will he be sending you the nudes of your ex wife and telling you he slept with her? How is that supposed to concern you? Look, I advice you to delete them all and block his number right away.” Meli
“Good morning Barrister Evans.” Melissa greeted the lawyer as she took her seat. She was always polite and soft towards the barrister because he never tolerated anyone being rude to him. He was the royal house lawyer and didn't care about anyone other than her father.Regardless of her being the king's daughter and first daughter at that, he cared less about anyone.He believed in respect and humility regardless of who employed him or who didn't employ him.He would only handle a case when he saw that it was a matter of urgency and in the case of urgency, he would only pick a case that was life threatening to solve.“Who are you and what do you want me to do for you?” He asked as he didn't look up and continued typing on his computer system.“I am Melissa, the eldest daughter of the king.” Melissa replied and just then, the lawyer raised his head up to look at her.“What do you want me to do for you?” He asked her.“Sir, I don't know if you will believe me but it's about the Patricks
