The Billionaire Takeover Chapter 77
Even after going through a very unpleasant conversation with her husband and an embarrassing incident that must've left her scarred. Jade still found the reason, the zeal to sneak into Carolene's room and do what she had intended on doing. She met the woman casually sipping from her coffee mug. Her eyes turned to jade upon hearing the creaking sound of the door as it opened. On seeing that her visitor was jade, Carolene did not hide her eye roll. "You should've knocked". She said as she sat her coffee mug down. However, Jade blatantly ignored the attitude in her eyes and the spite in her voice as she proceeded to do what she had come for. "You were right," she started, "I was being delusional when I said Kraig liked me". Carolene was simply nodding her head ad she listened, "well, I appreciate the recognition, but why are you telling me?" Her ego was caressed by Jade's words but at the same time, her curiosity was provoked. Jade chuckled knowing damn well that underneath that d

Wynn went back home thinking of what had happened. It was only after she was in her car did she realize that she had done a very shitty job at just leaving without saying goodbye. Nothing had taken place how she wanted it to. She didn't go there to kiss him, she didn't go there either to lose herself in his eyes. She never intended to have her heart beating for him the way it happened. The desire to stay there with him longer than she had had been so earth shattering. She had been totally overpowered by that emotion and it was quite shocking how she had conquered it. It was definitely seeing Wesley there and also knowing that Carolene was only a few feet away from where they were. And once again, she was reminded of the fact that there was another woman in the life of the man she wanted. And there was surely no way that she was expected to pick a fight because of that. Other than falling pregnant and being older than Kraig, Carolene actually did nothing to Wynn but she hated her

Jade and Carolene were in a staring contest. Jade was trying her hardest to swallow what Carolene had just said to her. She knew that the woman was not lying because that was the best way that she could get rid of Wynn. But hearing that idea from Carolene was what she could not understand. The woman was trying to help her, giving her tips on how she should keep the man she was seeing. The man she wanted. But the reason for doing that was unknown to jade. As far as she knew, they were supposed to get married to each other the next day. They were going to be man and wife and here she was helping Jade with her problem that involved the man she would be marrying. "Why are you helping me?" Jade asked "What?" Carolene asked back. "You're helping me get your husband, if I do get him to fall in love with me, then he will be in love with me and there would be no use for you anymore. Is that what you want?" "Before you get him to fall in love with you, he and I will be married already. A

Carolene fell down the staircase stopping right by Kraig's feet. Kraig and the second Wesley had been walking to the staircase so as to help Mr DeVille get into his bed. But suddenly, Carolene fell down the staircase and she stopped right at his feet. Her hands were over her stomach as she shielded the baby. Her head was cut open and the floor around herbwas dyed red. Kraig at first couldn't process what was going on because it felt like a horrible nightmare. Jade was already running down the staircase in order to ensure that she was still alive. Jade ran so fast like she had never done before and when she stopped in front of Kraig she saw that Carolene was bleeding profusely and her breathing was not stable. Fear rose in her heart and panic took over her being. It was very unusual for her, she hastily fetched her phone and started to call for an ambulance. As it seemed, she was the only one who was trying to get her act together. Kraig looked up the staircase and saw the secon

Kraig felt his heart skip a beat. He had been so terrified, forcing himself to believe that the blood from her pants had been from being soaked in the blood rushing from her head. He didn't want this. He couldn't help the guilt that came over him. He never wanted to marry her and he couldn't help but think that this tragedy happened only because he was looking for an excuse out of his marriage. He leaned back, resting his head against the metal walls of the ambulance. Wesley saw the look in his eyes, felt how his mood changed, he wanted to comfort him but he didn't know what to say or how to say it and so he settled for the first thing that came tk his head. "She's not certain." He pointed out, "the baby might have survived. Let's wait till we get to the hospital and then we'll find out through some tests". Of course Kraig didn't buy his bullshit but at the moment, he just felt that nodding his head was the appropriate thing to do. Back at home, the blood was getting cleaned u
The Billionaire Takeover Chapter 82
Kraig was confused, the paramedic had told him that the baby could not survive. He had seen the blood flowing from her. It was utterly confusing that the doctor was saying something else to him. "Doctor, what are you saying?" He asked, panicking, wanting to believe that he had not heard him correctly. The doctor looked at him confused as he wondered if he had spoken Japanese at first. He looked at Kraig and recognized the hope and denial that was going through his mind. He smiled, in this kind of business, it was a common thing for the families of patients to not want to believe that they received some good news but at the same time hoping that the news was true. "I said the baby survived. She had bruised her arms and her ankles badly, which made me believe that she had hurt herself trying to protect the baby". The doctor said, "she'll make a good mother". Wesley, who was standing beside him, immediately screamed in joy. He wrapped his arms around the Doctor excitedly before turni

Carolene woke up in the hospital with a heavy headache. She looked around and recognized that she was in a hospital. Her hand moved to her forehead, she felt the familiar texture as a bandage around her head. She chuckled: "and here I was expecting that he would repeatedly have a knife into my stomach". She grinned. She rubbed her stomach, she could feel that her baby was still there on her stomach, but whether they were healthy or not was unknown to her. But she was sure they survived because she had gone through hell yk protect them. And the bandages around her hands were proof of such. She grimaced as she recalled how she had fallen down the staircase and the slight push she received from Wesley before she took to the ground. He had not only threatened her to expose her, and threatened her baby, he actually went along to do what he had said. Carolene chuckled bitterly. Wesley had been wrong to play such a game with her. Before her head could think of a means of revenge on

Camille marched to the living room, she wanted to say a lot of things to Wynn, reprimand her for being such a selfish person. But as she stopped and saw the TV, those words became buried in her heart. They were announcing that Kraig, the man she hated, the man she always ridiculed was actually the heir. He was actually the man who had a lot of money to inherit. She shook her head, "ia thus forged?" She asked Wynn who was sitting down just staring at the TV. Wynn also could not believe it. She had told Kraig so many times how she needed to get married o a rich man and he had brought the DeVille up on one occasion, but thinking that he was referring yk Wesley, Wynn had stopped. She had no regrets in her heart anyway. She loved him before she even found out he was rich, but she felt betrayed. Why didn't he tell her? Did he not trust her? Did Carolene know? Was that why she got pregnant? Wynn shook her head, she wanted to give Kraig a chance to explain, but seeing that he had tu

Juan had definitely had enough of bickering with Jade. He didn't get the whole idea surrounding her relationship with Carolene; if she liked girls, then she did. What was the whole deal?He looked around the room for a while, tired of looking at the blonde, tired of seeing her face and hearing her voice. He had come here for the specific reason of trying to recall how his life used to be so uncomplicated with her. And well, he recalled because entering here, he realized that he was small and minuscule in her life and as a result, insignificant and uncomplicated.Juan waved his hand at her, "just forget everything and just come out if you will.""Are you going to keep it a secret?" Jade asked again."If I'm asked, I will tell, if I'm not, then surely won't go spreading shit about you to who doesn't even want to listen," he said. "I think your biggest issue should be getting yourself better and getting out of this hellhole." He looked around again as if he had reached a new height of di

Daniel felt so frustrated; he didn't know what to say or even how to say whatever would come to his head. He wasn't in any way pleased with what he had just heard. And although he had no say in matters like this, his disgust was apparent.Kraig took in a deep breath, "I know you guys obviously hate that you're listening to this, and you feel that I am stupid." He sighed, "maybe I am stupid. I knew she is a criminal, but I still indulged; I still blurred the lines and just delved into this, and I'm coming to you with excuses such as these."Christian shook his head, "you've never been one to hang onto what has already happened. The whole thing has played out already, and instead of biting our fingers and wishing things were different, we would just be wasting our time.""So what do you propose we do?" Jraug inquired, seeing as one of them was not going to stay on the fact that he had been foolish."Well, I think you taking the initiative, regardless of your feelings for her, to inform

Jade paced around the room. Trying to reason with someone as simple-minded as Juan was proved to be anything but simple. She wanted to explain to him that if he did not change his statement or even pretend to be on her side at this moment, he was risking his head.She didn't know the abilities of Carolene, but surely, silencing a man so small, a man so insignificant would not be such a hard thing to do.However, she couldn't. There was a front that she was putting up for the world; Carolene was appearing as a weakling, a stupid blonde who did nothing but get pregnant for the most important man in the business world.But she was more than that. What she was was actually complicated, something that Jade couldn't guess but rather had an idea for. She was more complex than any of those men or women that would say a thing or two about her.And even this man in front of her had no idea who Carolene was, and that was why his request did not drift from a threesome.What the heck was even wron

Daniel took two steps forward. Though such a small number of steps should not possess the ability to completely obliterate the distance between them, but his strides were the guilty party.With just two steps, he now stood right beside Fabio as he peered into the evidence bag to scrutinize clearly the bullet kept within.Fabio was made cognizant of the imaginary distance between them. He felt Daniel's breath on his neck; he could smell the overpowering cologne, the aura of his being. Everything was too much for him; he had no choice but to take a step away from him.Daniel raised an eyebrow, "what is it?"Fabio rubbed his neck, trying to smoothen out the goosebumps that showed up on his skin, trying to rub away his presence away from him."If you want to look at it, here," he tossed it to him and then turned towards the funeral home where Wesley and his mother were still hiding.As Fabio approached, he saw that an older woman was placed on a stretcher and was being pushed towards the

Tabitha's heart raced violently in her chest. The anger that suddenly arose within her obviously had no recipient. If it was any other day, she could probably rant to Carolene, but the woman in front of her, sitting with a wrinkle between her eyebrows and a tired expression mixed with her livid one, surely wasn't in the mood to hear her bullshit.She cleared her throat and tried to work her way around her emotions, to be careful not to let Carolene's rage come upon her and to not let hers find comfort in Carolene.Tabitha bit her bottom lip until she drew blood. It was the best way to keep her lips shut. Her anger was nowhere near what Carolene would do to her if she spoke out of turn."Juan?"Carolene nodded her head, her fingers twirled in her hair as an exasperated sigh left her mouth."I have more reasons to kill him now." Their eyes met, "you were the one who wanted to keep him alive, why?"Tabitha immediately pulled her eyes away, bringing them beneath, showing the authority Car

Kraig took a step forward, the distance between him and Patricia only the space of two fingers. "I don't know why you are being like this," he said coldly and in utter disrespect. "I am the heir, I am the son of your nephew, and I apologize for the patriarchy, but I wasn't the one who made the rules.""And in addition, we have our own company we manage. Uncle had been quite understanding of how unfavorable the system is, and he gave us a company," Wesley said.Kraig raised an eyebrow in surprise, "so you have your own company, then what is your problem with me?""You own everything; you men took everything," she cried out. "I don't like this, I don't want this."Tabitha stood on the side, watching everything. She noted that surely it was because of the woman's age that was making her cranky and not just that; she might have some sort of disorder.When they first met, the woman had never really liked her, nor even tried to hide her disgust and hate. But as she thought, it could be beca

Leah woke up in the small room she had been waking up in for over a week. She could recall how she had gotten out of prison, but no matter how many times she thought about it, it just didn't make sense to her.The woman arrived at the cell with the keys that would free her, and then the two of them just walked out. There were people there, officers everywhere like a pandemic, but she just waltzed through the crowd like it was nothing, like they were all beneath her.And from what Leah had seen with her eyes. They were really beneath her.She jumped off the bed and checked the time on the small black alarm clock resting on the nightstand. It was over three in the afternoon. She was lucky.She had been given her own space where she would just exist. She had no idea what her role here was, but she assumed that it had something to do with the baby in her womb because they were always giving her food for two people and as such, she had added a lot of weight.She was still tall and slim and

Different exotic cars were parked in front of the simple funeral home. There were people coming from all directions with one aim in their hearts: to get to the funeral of Petrus DeVille. Although it was considered a tragic event, there were still reporters lined up across the place just so they could get an overview of what was going on in that small, cheap-looking funeral home.Kraig stood by the door as he welcomed people; some he recognized, but many were a mystery to him. He had a frown on his face, which should match the ceremony, but his frown had not generated from sadness but rather frustration.The last place he wanted to be caught in was standing by the door and addressing the people coming in and out. His grandfather did not deserve it.The noise reporters kept making and the noise from the funeral home joined together, giving Kraig a severe headache. He hated being there; he hated that he had to be the one welcoming people.His eyes went down to his black suit and ran his
