The Almighty Heir's Return Gone?
The Ashford group's shares dropped a little, after all, the media reported the case and some people thought that Friedrich was the culprit, even though there was no evidence.“That's exactly why I'm sure the ball must take place. It will calm these people down.” Brandon said, sitting in his chair, talking to shareholders who looked worried."You didn't...you didn't kill the Montgomery boy, did you?" One of them said, a short man with thinning hair. Mr. Stanford.“No, Mr. Stanford. I didn't kill him. Even though he took my girlfriend into the woods and tried to rape her, I didn't kill him.” Brandon replied, seriously.“Of course, of course.” The man said, as if apologizing.“Anything else you wish to ask or point out?”“No, no…” The shareholders muttered and soon, Brandon was alone in the office.Lucy had taken the week off, as she was very shaken up and he was in no way going to force her to work.“Friedrich?” It was Ellie. Since the company was full, she wouldn't call him by his real
The Almighty Heir's Return Far away
“Brandon, we have looked everywhere!” Ellie said, almost crying. She liked Lucy and she feared for the girl’s life. Do you think… ?” Brandon put the black rose on the table. “They took her. And it is my fucking fault!” He should have listened to Chung-hee, he should have backed away from Lucy, for a while. But no, he couldn’t control himself. Then, something flashed in his mind “What is it?” Ellie asked, noticing he changed his face expression. “What if she is pregnant?” He mumbled. “Come again?” Ellie frowned. “Her mother thought she might be pregnant!” He repeated, this time, louder. “My woman might be carrying my child! They took they both!” Chung-hee had not gone to the party because he had issues to solve. There was an attack in another part and now, Brandon suspected it was all part of the plan, so Chung-hee would not be around to help protect Brandon and Lucy. “What has the security said?” “Nothing. Those fuckers got to mess with our security system.” Brandon got up f
The Almighty Heir's Return Not dead
The place was not exactly poor, but the houses seemed to being a bad condition. Rindley saw two men talking and one of them entered the house and started to drag a big black plastic bag. As the bag appeared, Rindley couldn't help but think that it could be a person. A corpse, to be more precise.“...the fuck?” He thought and when one of the men, the one who was not carrying the bad, saw Rindley looking at them, he nudged the other man and indicated the car with a flick of his chin.The guy dragging the ‘corpse’ let the bag drop and looked at Rindley, who accelerated the car. Soon, he saw another car, one that was parked near the house of those men, following him. “Fuck!” Rindley said under his breath. He tried to cut through streets, but to no avail. Those men were not easily deceived. His phone started to vibrate and it was Ellie. He smiled by reading her name, but that was not the moment to talk to his woman. She insisted. “Baby, I am kind of busy right now!” He said, after ac
The Almighty Heir's Return The harbor
Rindley and Ellie decided to keep their relationship a secret. There were a few reasons for this. For starters, the fact that Brandon, Ellie's friend, was going through the trouble of Lucy's disappearance; then there was also the question of danger, as it was not known exactly who the kidnapper was and what he wanted; More so, Rindley's family, who wouldn't want their son to marry a girl with no relevant name in society. And Ellie wasn't about to say how much money she had just to ensure a relationship,, even if it was with Rindley."I want to marry you, Ellie." Rindley declared and she looked at him startled."Rindley… we just… for the first time.""And? I know I just want you.” He shrugged as he caressed Ellie's shoulders, lying on his chest. "I didn't get involved with any women after I met you, Ellie.""Are you saying it just to keep sleeping with me?" she asked, provoking him, but thrilled. Ellie thought that Rindley, who had a reputation as a womanizer, had dated several women i
The Almighty Heir's Return Police Station
The police entered, guns drawn, pointing at Chung-hee and Brandon as if they were thugs. “Don’t move!” The two looked at each other and remained still, except when one of the officers, apparently their boss, ordered them both to put their hands up.“Now, behind your heads!” There was no resistance on their part and so, both were taken to the police station to testify for being on private property, without authorization, after a complaint of invasion and suspicious movement in the area. Brandon and Chung-hee were clearly not arrested, but during the conversation with the sheriff, Brandon was harshly questioned. He was in foul mood, since to him, they were wasting time, while Lucy was being dragged to some hell hole and he, there, inside that damn place, could do nothing!Deputy James Sullivan was not one to be intimidated by anyone's social status. He investigated who he had to investigate, and if some rich man was found guilty, he would mercilessly arrest him.This behavior made B
The Almighty Heir's Return No pie
Brandon went to his house and was really stressed. “Call the IT team. I want to know the members of the Gang, I want to know where Lucy is!” He was ranting and Ellie knew it. No hard feelings. “Ok.” She said and started to make her calls. She called the butler of the Ashford Manor. “Mr. Hartley? Hi!” “Hello, Miss Patterson. How may I assist you?” The butler’s voice echoed on the other side of the line, as politely as ever. “Mr. Hartley, please, I need you IT team working with mine.” She explained the whole situation for him. Of course Harold Hartley was not just any butler. As much as he was old and worked as a mere servant in the eyes of others, he was far more than that. His family has been working for the Ashfords for centuries. Some people are butlers, just butlers, but some are part of one of the four great clans, that give their lives to serve their masters. No, not slaves. They receive a great payment for their services, since they are well trained as fighters, strategis
The Almighty Heir's Return Proof
“I beg your pardon?” Brandon asked, smiling nervously.James sighed internally, but kept his posture.“You, Mr. Friedrich Ashford, is under arrest.” He said. “Please, come with us without causing trouble.” “May I know under which pretense I am being arrested?” Brandon asked, still not believing his ears. “Of course. You are being arrested for the kidnapping of Lucinda Fairfax.” Brandon needed a few seconds to really understand the meaning of those words. “Wait a minute.. Why would you think I did it? I am looking for her!” Brandon asked and for what James could see, the man seemed to be in mishape, but they had evidence. “We have evidence and for that, you will be detained for further inquiry.” “That is not possible. How can you have evidence on something that didn’t happen? Huh?” He asked, shaking his head. “I’ll go with you, I won’t ‘cause trouble’, but I want my lawyer or I won’t say anything.”“As you prefer sir. You have the right to remain silent and anything you say might
The Almighty Heir's Return Is she with another?
Andrew could do nothing to take Brandon out of there unless he gathered proof that Friedrich Ashford was not in the place that the tape video showed he was. “I’ll work on it, ok?” He told Brandon, who nodded. “Well, I’ll just wait, then.” Brandon said. “I’ll wait. And you keep looking for Lucy.” “Sure, Mr. Ashford. “With that, the lawyer was gone and Brandon was led to a cell, where he would stay until further notice or, most likely, until trial day. The cell was not terrible, but even if it was, Brandon would not complain. James, on the other hand, was surprised because Brandon said nothing. Normally, if any rich man was put in a cell like that, he would complain nonstop about everything. ‘This man is different, indeed’, he thought.“You’ll stay here until we have an order saying we should release you.” James told Brandon, closing the cell’s door behind the man. “Ok.” Brandon answered. James nodded and walked away, leaving Brandon alone with his own thoughts. “Sir, the owner

Wanda is mine
After Peter was dropped off at a house with Ashford security, Gideon went to the hospital to visit Wanda. Her father was there and when Matteo saw his future son-in-law, he decided to talk to him."Ah, Friedrich, can we have a word before you go into Wanda's room?"“Yes, of course, Mr Grayson.” He answered and the two sat on some benches farther away, where there were no people around.“I'll be direct, okay? Wanda and you… Are you really going to get married? I mean, are you a real couple?”Matteo Grayson's question made Gideon frown. He didn't understand why that man decided to ask him something like that.“Yes, we’re going to get married. And yes, we are a real couple. Wanda is the woman of my life, Mr Grayson.”“It's just… She came up with these questions about me forcing her to marry another man if she didn't marry you. I know you've been through the odds and ends, but did anything else happen? Something I don't know about?""No. Wanda is the love of my life, the woman I want to s
We need to go
Peter was very competent at what he did and Gideon was thoughtful as he watched the boy working on what he had been asked to do.'If he had had more opportunities, maybe today he would be much better off in life', he thought and looked at Brandon, who didn't take his eyes off Peter.Brandon was worried. He knew that if he didn't hear from the Clan, he would be forced to travel, but without being sure about Krasner’s death, he couldn't afford that luxury. He would be risky and falling again from the mad doctor's hands would be certain death.It wasn't that Brandon feared dying. No, he was not afraid of death. Not when it came to himself. But if he was captured and killed, Gideon and Lucy would be after him for sure and they would most likely suffer the same fate. And that Brandon could never risk."I got it!" Peter announced and started rummaging around. “Their initial system is rudimentary, but despite that, it's all well done and protected. Afterwards, the bastards managed to put up
Here, boy
“So, boy. Here's the thing: we need you to hack a system for us. We are without our agent at the moment and I heard that you are a formidable hacker.” Gideon said as he popped a piece of gum into his mouth. He didn't smoke, never had, but when he got too nervous, he liked to chew gum.The boy adjusted his glasses again and looked at Gideon, still amazed.“Yeah… Is this some kind of test?” he asked and Gideon rolled his eyes."I'm not a cop trying to catch you with your hand in the cruse." Gideon sighed. “I need you to get into that system. I need to know if a person is still alive.”“Look, then I think you should go to the police. I am not…"“Enough with the small talk, boy!” Gideon said and approached the boy, who took a few steps back until he bumped into a trash can in the street and almost fell with it. But Gideon caught him by the collar of his shirt. "I need it now. I will pay you well for this.”Peter remembered the wad of cash his father was given and didn't doubt that the man
It can't be
Gideon was in the hospital room with Wanda, reading one of her favorite books for her, Jane Eyre, when his cell phone rang.“Just a moment, my love.” Gideon asked, raising one finger and Wanda, who was more than pale in the face and smiled slightly, in agreement.Outside Wanda's ward, Gideon answered the phone.“Hi, Bro. What is going on?""Rindley still hasn't been found, but we have a plan." Brandon said on the other end of the line and Gideon listened intently.Upon entering back the room, Wanda was more than awake, looking at Gideon.“I'm going to have to leave for a few moments, honey.” He told her softly.“Gideon… You don't have to go through with this.” She said and sighed. “Our marriage is a sham. You don't have to keep coming here.”He frowned at her and walked over to the bed, sitting in the chair and taking her hand in his.“Do you think I would risk dying for you if I didn't like you?” he asked with an offended tone. “Fuck, I dare say I love you, Wanda!”He notices when he
Problems
“It means we have no way of contacting the Clan?” Brandon asked Lucy. He was sitting in a hospital bed, his torso getting wrapped in gauze, while he talked to Lucy on the phone. “I’ll try to find another way. I’ll call Rindley again.” “Ok, love.” Brandon answered and smiled. “I love you, Lucy. And I’m sorry for dragging you into all those problems.”“It is not your fault, baby. Actually, if not for me, you’d have never gone into that trouble.” Lucy said, since Brandon decided to start training because of her, then, he got ‘murdered’ because of her as well. “We were made in heaven.” Brandon laughed, feeling a sting on his flank. The adrenaline was not high anymore running through his veins. The doctor wanted to give him morphine, since he had a great wound on his side, but he denied it, with fear it might make him vulnerable.“Keep still, Brandon! I can hear you’re in pain!” Lucy nagged. “I’ll call my brother.” She finished the call with Brandon, but her heart was clenching, as if
Celebration
"My children!" Gareth smiled and spread his arms wide, as if genuinely happy to see the twins and their mates."Father!" Gideon said and broke into a huge smile. “We have something new and we wanted to come and tell you in person.”Gareth looked from one to the other, and then, the four raised their hands and the rings gleamed in the ambient light. Gareth widened his eyes and raised his eyebrows.“Did you get married?” he asked, surprised."Yes! We couldn't take it anymore. After everything that happened, we decided it was necessary. I had no reason to keep putting it off.” Brandon spoke and sounded very calm.“Then… Then we need to celebrate!”For Brandon, it was very strange to have to look at that man who was in his biological father's body, but in reality, he was nothing more than a crazy doctor, capable of anything to put the crazy creations of his mind into action.A party was arranged and the four had to pretend that everything was fine, that they were a happy family.“So, any
Married
The trip to Las Vegas was quiet and for just a few moments, they wanted to forget all the shit they were living in and focus on their happiness.Since Brandon agreed to work in that martial arts academy, his life has never been the same. In fact, since he had agreed to move back to Bloomington. He knew he would eventually have to go back to the family, living in the city that his family practically ruled.So he met Lucy. Lucy was the key point of everything. If it weren't for her, he would not have decided to learn to fight. If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have arranged an absurd fight with Damon Montgomery A, in this, was almost murdered by the young man's jealousy.Then he was saved and stayed for years in a place learning martial arts and how to use weapons. He came back powerful and assuming his twin brother's identity, which he only learned that he had the moment he had to be a new person. But then, he was not prepared for another surprise. His brother was alive and was named
A paper
Peter was more than shocked by everything he had just read. So he ran to the driver and asked him to take him to the Ashford mansion.Gideon was waking up next to Wanda and smiled to see his wife who would soon be his wife, sleeping quietly.'She's finally mine!' He thought proud. 'My wife. Just mine!'.When he was waking up Wanda with kisses, ready to have morning sex, someone knocked on his bedroom door and Gideon growled in frustration as Wanda laughed softly.“Good morning, Harold. What there was?" He asked angrily."Mr. Peter is down there and he said it is a matter of greatest importance." The butler spoke. "He is even having difficulty breathing."Gideon agreed with his head and inspired deeply.“Okay, tell him that I'm already going down, okay? Let me just take a shower. ”"Yes sir."Gideon closed the bedroom door and saw Wanda sitting on the bed, her breasts from the outside. He approached her more than he quickly and ran his tongue on one of the nipples."Love!"He laid her,
Reencounter
The car drove through the gates and soon parked. The men put Brandon and Gideon on the stretchers and when it was time to put Peter on, they made fun of him because he was shaking. “This one, poor guy… He was the most affected.” One of the guards spoke in a mocking tone. “Look at him, poor guy. So frail. He got in trouble just hanging out with the Ashfords.” “Ow… I'm straight, but these guys are hot.” “I wanted to be like this… I saw them awake. What a beautiful eyes! That must be why they get such beautiful girls!” “Are we going to have to inject them with more of the hallucinogen?” “The boss didn't say anything about that. They are sleeping. Let's put them in the rooms and wait for further orders.” The men continued to talk about subjects that neither Brandon nor Gideon were interested in. Once in the rooms, Brandon opened his eyes slightly and looked around as best he could. He figured he was being filmed, so he didn't wake up right away. He started to move, like he did in
