Lucian served Evelyn coffee as he kept silence to her offer. If she could propose such words, it could only mean she knew what his true agenda was.“What made you change your mind? You were all over heels for him…”“Lucian, don't act like you have no idea, I can't just leave Ethan who had made my life miserable” she mused frowning at the cup of coffee set before her.Lucian scoffed, everyone wanted revenge, but who was ready to forgive?“How about the other ladies?” Lucian asked, narrowing his eyes at her as the steam from the coffee hovered all over his face.“I don't care about them, I guess they would still be stucked to him” she responded, swallowing hard. Evelyn was becoming tensed with the way Lucian stared at her.“They could be our greatest weapon to pulling him down, I got my men to raid Natalie's house, and they confirmed she ran away with it”“So where's she?” She cuts in, intrigued by what Lucian was passing across.“I'm not convinced, but my speculations revolves around E
A knock drew his attention to the door as he was preparing to head to the office. He was knotting his tie before heading to reply whosoever was by the door.The person he met at the door gave him goosebumps. He had to narrow his eyes at this person who held a bouquet of flowers like though proposing to him.“Hi brother”Rodger was still unsure if it was his stepbrother he was seeing and if it were him, then it meant trouble had drawn close.“E.t.h.an?” Rodger stressed, and then glanced around if he came with anyone, but he was all alone and flowers were for him.“What brings you here?” He furthered, and Alex said;“Wouldn't you let your brother inside?”“No, what do you want from me?” Rodger protested, slamming the door behind him and drawing near to Alex.There was no way he was letting his stepbrother inside because his presence wasn't welcome. He only remained calm on his stepbrother, because of his mother.“Reconciliation” Alex declared and Rodger ducked his head at him. Did he ju
She was whined when she arrived at his mansion. The wearied lady glanced at her watch and then at her boss's study room.That was the place they were to meet after her research for today, but it seems he was delaying.Natalie shook her head negatively and intended to leave when she bumped into Lucian. He made her shudder rather than apologizing.His glare at her caused her to wince in silence as she stepped a distance away from him, but he said;“What's your plan with him?”Natalie scoffed, attempting to look brave in his eyes but deep inside her, she was panicking.“Why do you want to know? It's between my boss and I” she snapped, crossing her arms and praying Alex shows up quickly.Lucian narrowed his brows at her and furthered in his interrogations.“I know you have that control…”“Hold on, why do you guys keep blaming me over a remote button which I have no idea about?” She cuts in with an innocent gaze, and Lucian mocked her.He knew this girl would act like though she was innoce
Natalie thought of a way to come up with an excuse just not to come along with Alex; however, it was effortless and somehow, Lucian attributed in making her leave with Alex.Besides, the table would be turned to his favor if they leave. Immediately he saw that they were gone, he rushed to Natalie's room, got a master key and then got inside.He began his search from beneath her bed and then anywhere possible that she could have hidden such a control button.Meanwhile, while Natalie and Alex had ridden a distance from the mansion, she suddenly said;“I have the control button”Alex who was focused on the jotter she had handed over to him. This list had the names of people who were close with Ethan when he was still a lad.He shifted his eyes and ordered her to stop driving, which she did at once.“I'm sorry I didn't inform you on time” she furthered, hoping Alex orders that they should return home to get it.“Why are you telling me now?” He asked, staring at her eyes through the rear m
He raced outside, informing the bodyguards around to get a hold of the man who just left the mansion.They shot at this person; however, it seems he knew the in and out of this mansion and found it easy to escape unharmed.The culprit had a van outside waiting for him, and he jumped into it. Alex quickly memorized the plate number before the vehicle drove away.Some of his men hurried to convey themselves into a bus and drive after him, on the command of their boss.Alex groaned and intended to check the CCTV footage around his mansion, but then Natalie had ventured outside and pronounced the name of who has it.He sighed and scoffed at her. How many more does this girl know, and she's hiding from him. Alex ordered his men to keep him on track, if they're on Lucian, while he and Natalie comes after.“Get the car started, we're chasing after him” he beckoned and raced towards the gates. Natalie nodded and hurried towards where the car was parked.For now, their argument had to cease be
He wasn't concentrating any longer, as everything was becoming clearer to him. No one was ever going to be on his side if Lucian could show his truth self. However, Natalie cleared that up.“You killed his wife, your stepsister in his presence”The car screech in the middle of the woods and she step on the brake causing the car to jolt to a stop.“She was his wife? Why would he?” He thought feeble. Natalie took a gun from the car and jumped out expecting her boss to come out, but he was still seated and contemplating.“Revenge possibly” she spoke, ducking her head through the window and staring at him. He needed to get out and not reason over the mess he had created.“Revenge?” He repeated stepping down and gazing around the wood, which was foggy.“He did something to you too, right? This man Ethan” he asked rhetorically and Natalie heaved a sigh.Why does he refer himself as a third party? He had been acting as though he weren't Ethan. Even though he claims he loses his memory someti
Rodger had headed over to Alex's mansion and was informed that he wasn't around.He needed to know the reason Alex left the house because he wasn't in the office, neither was he found anywhere that he knew of.No lucid information was given to him because every servant in the house was entailed to keep an ongoing issue a secret.All he needed to do was to force them into speaking, and he got his answers. He and Natalie were chasing after Lucian.“Wow” he exclaimed and seize the chance to explore his study room. However, he had to inform his mother of the situation at hand just so that she could take care of Alex while he takes care of his property.“This is surely the end for you, Ethan” he mused with an evil chuckle. It seems like everything was happening quickly to his favor.First, Alex came asking for forgiveness and now, he was off busy with dealing with his secretary.Rodger knew how devious Lucian could be, and he wasn't going to be easy to deal with.“Too sad Ethan, that I can
Meanwhile, Alex and Natalie had come up with possible ways of getting to where Lucian could probably be.During their search, they could see tall trees falling and gigantic footsteps deep in the woods.Alex presumes Lucian had activated it. Earlier, before they drove to this spot, he had carried along the book that has the instructions about this control button.Also, he had trackers with him just Incase they needed to track Lucian down when the time comes.He informed some of his men to cause an obstruction at the exit and entrance of the woods in order to launch an attack.This was getting out of hand because they couldn't trace where exactly Lucian was at the forest. Soon, they could hear the rattling wheels of a car coming their direction.These two had to hid behind the tall trees just not to be smash nor caught. Their eyes were at alert, peeping and hiding.It was lucian in a car and he was driving out of the woods but not with the robots which meant he abandoned them.His car w
