Lucian shifted his attention from the papers to John. "You want to control 70% of Howard's shares? What in the pits of hell?!""I…I…I'm…" John stuttered."Is being the CEO of Roses and Lilies too much to handle that you want to add to your greed?!""We can talk about this, Instead of getting worked up over nothing," John forced a smile, even though the muscles in his hands were already twitching in frustration."No, we can't. What made you think that the new president would be naive enough to allow you to control 70% of its shares?""Just so you know, my hotel is very reputable under my control. The employees are treated with respect and…""Stop right there!" Lucian barked. "Don't try to fool yourself. You handle your employees like they're some piece of trash waiting to be disposed the next moment."John passed an evil look at Darcel. "If it's about this lady here, I can explain…""Shut the hell up!" Lucian thundered, disgusted by John's feeling of pride. "Your exact words were; Wait
THE BILLIONIARE'S RISE TO STARDOM CHAPTER TWELVE: ROSE DISAPPEARS MYSTERIOUSLY.
John stuttered, then snapped his trembling mouth shut as he shifted in discomfort. He tried to speak, to get rid of all the pain that twisted his insides, but his mouth felt blank, like all his words had vanished completely into thin air.There was a loud choking sound in the center of his throat.He passed a confused look at Darcel who sat with a small evil grin on the corner of her lips and an unconcerned look on her face. The hell, he was being ridiculed in front of a person that was once his employee! It made his heart bleed.Why the hell was she enjoying this luxury that was meant for him when she was only but a shameless harlot? Did Lucian have no sense at all? Or perhaps, he wanted to have a fair dose of her body for himself?His brain was whirling, but no answer."W…hy don't we talk this through…please, Lucian"In response, Lucian pressed the bell on the table, sending him a dark glare. Soon, the door opened and three hefty guards walked in. The leader of the trio bowed before

"And what is the name of this man?" Lucian said, cracking his knuckles harshly."One second please," the doctor replied, searching through the documents on his desk until he tumbled on a paper. "His name is Silas Manchester. The surname matched that of Rose""Silas…?" Lucian exhaled sharply as he searched his memory. Who the hell was Silas? He didn't know anyone with that name.And why would Rose follow a stranger without raising an alarm?Was his sister in danger?Who the hell was responsible for it?He fumbled with his phone, just as quickly as he grunted."Doctor Chris, may I take a look at the surveillance cameras starting from the period of Rose's absence."Chris darted an eyebrow. "I'm sorry, but you cannot. If your sister is missing, I suggest you look for alternative ways to track her instead of wasting time asking for security cameras."What?!Lucian couldn't believe his ears. He cast a confused look at the young man clad in white lab coat. Were professionals in the medical f
THE BILLIONIARE'S RISE TO STARDOM CHAPTER FOURTEEN: DEALING WITH JOHN.
Lucian, blinded by rage, rushed to the floor and pulled John roughly to his feet. He landed a blow on his cheeks and without giving him a chance to recover, landed another blow. "You bastard?!" He yelled."H…ow…what the fuck is going on here?" John stammered, confused."Are you still talking?!" Lucian raged, about to deliver another blow when a hand stopped him from behind.Thomas held his hands. "That's enough, Master Lucian. Allow us to handle him.""Bullshit!' Lucian scoffed but pushed John away in disgust, and ran to his sister.She was already untied by his men, but she was visibly shivering. He took her wrists and noticed the red deep lines around them. Her hair was rough and scattered, no doubt she had struggled with the bastard.He gritted his teeth as his hands reached out to her forehead, feeling the cut and the blood.It made him mad."Are you okay?" He whispered fiercely.Rose tightened her grip on his hands. "H…how are you alive? He had threatened to kill you if I didn't
THE BILLIONIARE'S RISE TO STARDOM CHAPTER FIFTEEN: RIDICULED.
Lucian's brows pulled into a frown. He was not sure he had heard right. "What did you just say?!""He injured one of the men with a hidden knife and broke free. We ran after him, but he was too fast." Thomas bowed."No!" The word exploded from Lucian like the blast from a gun. He charged towards Thomas and grabbed his shirt, his eyes darkening. "Are you joking right now?!""I'm so sorry, boss. I'll make sure to catch him soon. I slacked because the injury of one of our men was severe. He has been taken to the hospital."Lucian scoffed lightly and released Thomas. "Is he going to be okay?""Yes. I'll check up on him later,""I need you to find John this instant. Someone like him should not be allowed to breathe freely.""Yes, Master." Thomas bowed and trotted out of the room.At that instant, Lucian's phone beeped and he looked into it. Then, slowly, he turned to face his sister."We have to go now, Rose. Dad's waiting…"Rose nodded and followed him without a word. She had a blank look

Lucian's brows pulled into a dark frown as he climbed down from his limousine. He tucked a strand of hair behind his ears and brought out his phone to dial a number.After the third ring, the line connected and Anthony's voice reached him from the other end."Mr Anthony, is it a deal now?""Yes, Master, everything is set,""Good, and the visuals?""It's intercepted and ready,""Where are you now?"Anthony scoffed lightly. "I'm trying to get out of this hellhole. I'm still stuck in the media room,"Lucian smirked. "Use your wits to get out of there safely." He paused briefly, staring into nothing. "It's time to deal with John…""Master Lucian, don't you think you should focus more on being the president of Howards instead of…"Lucian ended the call, not wanting to hear more. Nobody was permitted to distract him in his revenge mission. It felt like a sin to allow people who had hurt him to go scot-free without teaching them a lesson or two.With his phone screen serving as a mirror, he

Anthony swiped through the screen of his phone and handed it to Lucian. "That's an article from today,"Lucian read the words out loud. "Another tragic death hits X Tech distribution this afternoon as an employee, a thirty-three-year-old woman was mysteriously reported dead after collapsing at work. This is the seventh death X Tech distribution has recorded in three months. The question now is; could X Tech be responsible for all the mysterious deaths of its employees, or are these all natural deaths…?"Lucian paused, sucking in a deep breath. His eyes were rolling in their sockets as he tried to reach a conclusion. X Tech Distribution was a leading company when it came to the production of gold and pearls.It was where his sister had worked in the past. How were they connected? And why did the name of the company sound so awfully familiar?"What's the name of the owner of this company?""Her name is Summer Madison. I believe you know her, she is your….""Ex-mother-in-law." Lucian com
THE BILLIONIARE'S RISE TO STARDOM CHAPTER EIGHTEEN: ONE SIDE OF THE COIN.
Lucian rang the doorbell thrice and waited for a response, but none came. He exhaled. Was Silas inside? Or was he pretending not to have heard his door?He rang the bell again and followed it with a knock, still no response. There was a thick silence from within, not even the slightest of sound.Weird!His hand reached for the door knob and it gave way without effort. In a moment, his eyes took in the poorly arranged living room with scattered furniture and an old cooking pot left without caution in the middle of the room.But that was not the reason he was here."Silas!" He called out, but only the echo of his voice reached out to him as a response, as if daring him.He hurried to the bedroom and right there, Silas lay on the floor, his face pale and flushed."Silas!" Lucian yelled and hurried over.There was a small whitish substance at the corners of his lips. A pool of blood had gathered under his back. Lucian felt his pulse. He was still breathing, but very faint.A surge of trem
