THE BILLIONIARE'S RISE TO STARDOM Chapter 179: Confusing Thoughts.
Lucian didn't say anything, he just stayed at her like he had been compelled to be her listening device. As he looked on, he couldn't help but feel a pang of pity. The loss of John must have really hit her and he almost couldn't imagine the turmoil she was going through."Is that fear I sense?" Summer laughed. "Oh, come on now, isn't it time you bid the games goodbye? You've held on to this inheritance for long, cherishing it as one would a beloved toy but unfortunately, it doesn't belong to you,""Says who?" Lucian crossed his legs. "I'm curious to know who said Howards doesn't belong to me,""Drop your nonsense and hand over the conglomerates already. Isn't it you who said we should respect the dead?"Lucian scoffed, leaning closer. "You don't deserve a shit neither you nor your late son,""And that's why you killed him?" Summer flared, dropping the bombshell. "He didn't deserve to die. He was so young and full of life but you killed him nonetheless,""That's enough," Lucian interru

It was the day of John's funeral and Summer stood in front of his grave dressed in all black. There were tears in her eyes, but she refused to let them fall, not wanting to be a crybaby on a day like this.As she stood, anger brewing inside of her, she thought of how perfect her life used to be before all of this. How she used to run the company single-handedly, parading herself as a reigning queen. How people revered and respected the power she possessed. All of that changed when Lucian came into the picture.And that instance, she almost felt regret for treating him badly, like a nobody, but she told herself not to. Regret was a sign of weakness, and she was far from weak. Even if she had lost her two children because of that bastard, she had to be unyielding.It was what John would want her to do."I'm going to miss you, buddy. Take care of yourself over there for me, alright? I'll do my best to pray for you every day knowing that you are in a better place,"She sat on the bare gra

Irex didn't reply. He just stared at Summer with curious eyes and like an open book, he could see the rage steaming off from her. She was trying so hard to control it, to keep it under control, but how long before she exploded, burning everything and everyone in her path?"You look a lot healthier than the last time we met. Looks like you've been taking your sleep seriously," Summer forced a weak smile.Irex sighed as he settled into the couch, legs crossed. "Before you bore me with your compliments, get me a glass of wine, would you?""With pleasure, honey," Summer chuckled and disappeared into a room. She returned seconds later with a bottle of wine and two glasses. After she had filled the glasses, she crossed her hands and watched him take generous sips."What? Don't stare at me that way or I might choke," Irex frowned. "I'm not your child,""Asshole!" Summer sighed and took up a seat opposite him. "Tell me what you think of my proposition?""If I should agree to work with you, th

"What the hell do you think you're doing?!" Rose fired after finding her voice. "You had better come to your senses and let me out of here,"Annoyed at how Rose's confident tone made her feel, Summer turned swiftly and landed two hard punches on Rose's nose and as the blood trickled, she laughed in satisfaction. "Now there's the picture I was looking for. When Lucian sees this, he'd come running and begging like a fool,""Wh…what the hell are you trying to achieve from all of this? What…do you…want," Rose stuttered as she coughed."The inheritance, all of Howards, including that damn company you're running. All of that wealth would make me the richest person in the world," She rolled her eyes dreamily. "I can finally avenge my son,"Without warning, Summer hit Rose again on the nose who flinched in pain. "I'm sorry, sweetheart, but your brother is a stubborn one. It'd take a lot to break him,"She positioned the camera on Rose's bloodied face and took a picture which she sent to Lucia

"What the hell did you just do, bastard?!" Summer yelled in apprehension, her voice sounding raw and scratchy.It was Irex's turn to exercise dominion, so he took eager steps toward Summer and stopped when he was an inch away. With his left hand, he flicked off the bead of sweat that had settled on her forehead while staring down at her with mischievous glinting eyes."It is dangerous to be out here on the loose, living with normal people, Summer. You should take your rightful place while it's not too late," He hissed into her ears, and as her body went tense, he smirked. "Yeah, in prison where murderers and sadists are kept,""Fuck you, Irex, fuck you!" Summer pushed him away in panic and made to escape when one of the officers stood in front of her, the cuffs extended forward."Ms. Summer Madison, you're under arrest for…"Summer didn't let the officer complete his sentence before she cursed angrily at Irex. Gosh, if only it were possible to rip him apart from where she stood. The f

Lucian released a deep sigh as he made his way to the boardroom. It was time to correct some of the whispers flying around about him, but it seemed Anthony was not sharing the same thoughts."Young master, the shareholders don't care. They're becoming nonchalant, so I think you should…""You think I should hide?" Lucian cut him short with a frown causing the other man to hesitate as he fumbled for a reply."I didn't say that…""Then allow me to do my duty. Even though the police would reveal the truth about the matter soon, I still want to do this,""How exactly? You'll only have to do a lot of talking in there to people that ditches on you the moment things go north,""Some," Lucian corrected. "I still have loyal people on my side and you'll see," The door of the boardroom opened and Lucian walked in to find the shareholders exchanging whispers, but even at the sight of him, they didn't seem to care.Lucian smirked and walked to the head of the table where he sat confidently, his ey

Lucian stared at the hospital's white walls that smelt like bleach for a long time. He was tired, yet he tried to ignore the blinding pain in his insides as he tightened his grip around his younger sister's small, frail hands.She was in so much pain and he knew that, yet the doctor had refused to start treatment until he deposited $150,000. Gosh, that was a freaking huge amount, his part-time jobs were not even enough to pull out such amount.The LED heart monitor was beeping slowly. It made his heart lurch painfully against his chest and he sighed, how many minutes were left before he lost his sister?"Lu…cian..." Rose coughed harshly."Yes, sister" "Be strong for me, despite the storm, okay? You're my only brother and I'm so sorry that I'm not strong enough to take care of you…"Lucian swallowed. "Wh…what are you talking about? You've always been my support system and with you gone, I'm nothing. I promise to save up enough money for your treatment, okay? just please hang in there
THE BILLIONIARE'S RISE TO STARDOM CHAPTER TWO: A RUINED NIGHT.
The food poured on Betty's dress, but Lucian ran after the broken plates, the words of the senior worker ringing in his ears. These plates costs $40,000 each. Where the hell would he get that amount to pay, especially as he was still battling for the money of his sister's treatment.What sort of fucked up night was this?A sharp slap against his cheeks sent him staggering backwards. "You son of a bastard. Look at the mess you caused. Must you manifest your ill luck everywhere you go?!" Betty cried.A small group gathered around them and Lucian felt ashamed of himself. Betty and John had succeeded in ruining his night. Who would believe him anyways? Who would believe that it hadn't been his fault?Nobody, they'd blame him for everything."My dress…!" Betty screamed louder."It wasn't on purpose, I swear…" Lucian began."Get something to clean up the mess you caused this instant!" John barked."I wonder the kind of idiots people employ these days," a guest said and the rest bursted into
