The Billionaire Takeover Chapter 139
Kraig took in a deep breath. He forced a smile out to Jade and gave her a shaking nod."I'm not moping; I'm fine."He had no idea that Jade was such a caring person. These mundane things made him realize that somehow, somewhere, he had developed an idea of her. He thought she was so detached from emotions, from caring for other people, but only now has he been proven wrong.He smiled again.Jade nodded her head; she felt better having told them the truth. She didn't understand why it had felt really weird to just tell him that she had been concerned about him. But now that she could say it to him without overthinking it, she felt utterly relieved."So what do you need me for?" Jade asked, trying to get the attention away from her. The awkward air needed to be cleared out, and as he reached for the table to get some of the papers spread out, she made sure to avoid Kraig's eyes."We have this person who we think should have more on him than what we already know," Fabio passed her a pict

He didn't realize that Kraig had so many fans taking pictures of him until today. He wanted to laugh.Then suddenly, somebody stopped in front of him, panting heavily, showing the proof that he had run his way there.Daniel didn't lift his head; he just casually continued to scroll through his social media."Why were you running?""I have something to show you," Christian said amidst heavy breaths. He held his chest and bent do

Carolene was set to get ready for the night. She had her skincare products applied to her face and a silk pink nightwear. She had left her door open, thinking, wishing that Jade would decide to come visit while she was asleep like she had done the previous time.Carolene hopped off the bed, turning the lamp beside her off, bathing the room in an unknown darkness.Then suddenly knocks came from her door.Carolene frowned. It definitely wasn't the person she was expecting because these days, Jade had taken it upon herself the liberty to stroll in and out of the room as if it belonged to her. It wasn't as if Carolene would say something about it. It actually pleased her.So, for this person to be knocking, it wasn't Jade, and that meant she didn't want the person anywhere around her. She didn't want the person in her room, disturbing her sleep.She walked to the bed, already feeling irritated with every step she took. As she reached the door, she opened it.Margot stood on the other side

Fabio had felt somewhat unsettled seeing that his phone had an incoming call from Daniel. The words that Jade had said to him rang in his head, and his throat became dry.It was morning, and that phone call had not cleared from his head. He didn't want to think there was another reason why Daniel would be referring to Kraig as his new best friend, so he didn't think into it.More like, he didn't want to think into it. He couldn't sit to believe that there was something like this.Fabio walked to the kitchen and called Kraig on his cell phone, hoping the man is awake enough to talk to him.Kraig wasn't.Kraig was still dancing in the Dreamland when the call came in, but the loud and chagrining ringing of the cell phone woke him up. He turned in his bed and grabbed the phone from his nightstand, slid a finger over the screen, and then slammed it on his face."Hello," his voice was groggy and wrapped in sleep."The guys and I need to see you," Fabio said, "it's very urgent."Kraig groane

Kraig looked around at the eyes of the detectives. He didn't know if he was happy that Daniel was the one telling him all these. He liked that it was straight to the point, but he would prefer a little sugarcoating."Why can you not dress up yourselves as rich people?" Jade asked. "I'm sure this place you're sending him to isn't quite the safe haven."Kraig turned to the woman beside him who was speaking for him as if she cares for his safety.Even Jade herself didn't know why she was speaking for him. She was just talking, genuinely worried for him.Christian shook his head, seeing that Daniel was scaring them with his transparency."We actually can't. According to our intel, this bar is loaded with information about any and every notable individual. And if you're not on their list, you can't get to talk to the people we need you to talk to.""So you think I'm on their list?" Kraig asked, pointing to himself."Of course you are. You are the most notable civilian in this country. You'

Jade looked at him dead in the eyes. The thought of making peace with him quickly evaporated. She didn't say anything, only turned back to the detectives and nodded.The ambiance of the table transformed into something else as a result of the small fight that just occurred. The detectives, Fabio and Christian to be precise, because Daniel couldn't care less about the fight, looked at each other. Both of them wondering how the mention of Carolene's name just turned the air into something else.They stayed shut, keeping their questions to themselves as they waited to hear from Jade her reply to the accusation made against her.Instead, they saw her turn to them with an unreadable expression."So when are we going there?" She asked."Tonight, the earlier the better," Daniel said.Jade nodded, "we'll be ready."After the meeting with the detectives, Jade took a taxi to her workplace while Kraig drove to his company. He thought back to the fight he had with Jade and wondered if he had been

Kraig gave another hard stare at the mirror. He had his face clean-shaven as always, but now, he had removed any form of stubble just to appear smooth and classy. His hair silkily left strands over his face, the rest of them gelled to the back to give the shape of his face more definition. The undercut was shaved again to highlight its importance.In a nutshell, he looked grand, especially when his facial features were matched with a midnight blue suit and a black shirt underneath. The first three buttons of the shirt were left undone, and so was the jacket.He knew he looked great. The party Lady T was throwing was set for tonight, and so was the mission they had to do. The plan was to first go to the bar, and then later, he would go to the party.He had no idea if Jade also got an invitation, but it did not matter to him.He glanced at the wristwatch around his wrist.Only a few hours left before he could text Wynn.He smiled; it was something worth looking forward to.Kraig proceed

Juan Leith took Wynn's hand into his own and gave it a gentle caress. His words had been the truth. Coming from someone who was known to be sort of dishonest, the misconception that he was lying hovered over their table.Though she felt that he was lying, her heart was still beating for how he politely asked. Everything about her that night seemed to revolve around Juan. She was truthfully swooned by him, regardless of the fact that a huge part of her believed that he was lying to her.She still, however, had her heart beating fast.Perhaps it was the guilt that was stabbing at her chest. It was probably the name that was ringing in her head.She liked the idea of being the woman Juan wanted to court, but her heart was still with Kraig, no matter how much she tried to work around it. She loved him even though he didn't understand her. Even though he kept smothering her with his affections and worry, even though every part of her was irritated by the sight of him. He had been the man w
