The Billionaire Takeover Chapter 85
Carolene was alone with her thoughts in the hospital room. Just like she had expected, the second Wesley had left her, but he did manage to surpass the number of hours that he thought he could stay. They did nothing but talk, well, all she did was listen to him talk. He held no iota of her interest. Hr was funny, that was one fact that she could not deny. And he was also quite bubbly. It was very obvious that he had grown some kind of feelings for her and he needed it to grow into something notable. Carolene shook her head, she thought that the only person to blame for this was Kraig because if he had actually told people, if he had openly loved her, then many of these things wouldn't have happened. For one, she wouldn't have to entertain a fool that liked her. The ceiling of the hospital room was getting too familiar with her. She hated the sight of it and desperately wanted to leave. But she couldn't. She could not help but think that Kraig had had a hand in her imprisonment i

Jade had gotten herself dressed up. She had been quite excessive, even gotten on some makeup and rolled her hair. She had gotten dressed because she wanted to pay a visit to the woman who had fallen down from the staircase. She knew that it wouldn't matter to Carolene how she was dressed but something in her woke up that morning wishing to be dolled up. And it wasn't like Carolene was her very good friend that she needed to pretend she was sad because she had fallen down from the staircase. And it wasn't like there was any bad news given the fact that the baby survived the fall. There was no need to act like she was not the selfish bitch that she was. There was no need to try to pretend to be someone who cared for the baby. She was going there to brag to her, to kaugh at her face that she was not getting married to Kraig anymore and before a date will be fixed for the wedding, a lot of things were bound to take place. For example like Kraig coming out and telling everyone that h

Jade tried her hardest to hide her smile but she couldn't. And neither coukd she say anything regarding what she had just heard because this was a conversation between a grandfather and his grandson and had no relation to her. Mr DeVille was very displeased by what he had heard. Unlike Jade, he had no reason to smile at the news. He had akways thought one should be held accountable for tgeir actions and Kraig had done something so life-changing. No matyer how desperately he wanted to change the oast, he coukdnt and so he had to bear the repercussion of his mistakes. And that repercussion was getting married to the woman who he had gottwn pregnant and crying about not wanting to marry her was pathetic. He felt a wmstring wave of shame knowing that it was because kf something like this that made him sad. "I know you won't understand what I'm saying, you will choose to not see it from my point of view but I'm telling you, I really don't want to get married to her" kraug said, trying

After leaving Kraig outside, Wynn ran to her room and laud flat on the bed, tears flowing from her eyes to the bed. She rolled around, unabke to calm her raging heart. She coukdnt stop hersekf from seeing Kraig's dejected face upon hesring her words. Many peoole woukd think she was being quite stupid. The man was alk she ever needed: she loved him, he was rich, he was handsome and he loved her back. Why then was she making things hard for the both of them? It was surely her pride at work, she djdnt even wait tonhesr him, to listen to his own reaosns for not telling her. She just jumped to conclusions, believing what her insecurities were telling her. But if she was listening yo her own insecurities, why then was she antagonizing him for listening to his own insecurities? Because surely, jy was because of hjs low sekf esteem, believing that the only way she could love him was only if he was wealthy. Two knocks came from her door. Wynn hurriedly dried the tears before she open

Juan walked out of Wynn's house, he looked utterly dejected. He had been questioned and disrespected by that woman. He was so angry. He was only at her door, available to her because of what he stood to gain by getting married to her. All he needed was his wealth, his power, his money and that could only be gotten if he got married to Wynn. Everyday, his business crumbled, the only thing keeping his family was the hotel and if that were gone then everything would end. His life would be over. His phone vibrated with a text message as he entered his car, he opened the text message after settling down. It was from Lady T. "You failed me. You will regret this". Juan's heart skipped a beat. He looked around his car, hjs environment as his heart raced inside of him. Panic rose like a volcano, poisoning all form of reason he had. He had forgotten how to be calm or how to breathe. All he thought about was the punishment that the Lady was going to release upon him. Surely, she would

Jade nodded her head, "as long as he's abke to get me what I want, I will even lick his asshole". Contrary to her expectation, Carolene did not turn her head away in disgust. She just stared fixatedly at her eyes watching her every move. "And you think Kraig woukd accept jt?" She asked. Jade knew for certain that Kraig woukd rather die or cough out blood than allow jade be with hjs grandafther. He was extremely agaunst jade for so many reasons, and she couldn't deny that he wasnt a bad person who a monster for not looking past her flaws because she was wekk aware of the bad things that she had done to him. She however, did not care. She had had no intention whatsoever to chase the old man in that way but having Kraig accuse her and even Carolene speaking on it. She started to think that maybe jt was a good idea to hop in that trsin. "Do i need his permission?" Carolene raised an eyebrow to the side and nodded her head, "but I thought you were so obsessed with Kraig. What happen

Fabio sat in his car mulling over the conversation he had with Juan. He was coming up with a kot of reasons why Juan could've asked him that question. But it just doesn't fit with him. The only thing that at least made sense that Juan had asked him about Lady T after a pile of drugs had been found in his hotel. Fabio recalled word fkr word how the conversation went and even the tiniest details he noticed about Juan. How his eyelashes fluttered when he askd that question, the beads of sweat that came to his forehead, the way he wetted his lios again and again as if he was anxious. "What?" Fabio had asked him yo be sure that he heard right. At that moment, he was wondering what sort of relationship Juan had with Lady T. He was wondering how a civilian like him knew anything about Lady T. Juan had claimed that he had nonidea about the stash, he had claimed that ge was innocent that that hsd been planted in the hotel, then how did he know of that name? How did he know Lady T? Juan

The ambulance finally stopped at a hospital, and so did Kraig. He alighted from the car and followed after the nurse who placed Wesley on the stretcher. His suit was stained with blood giving him a very ghastly appearance. He had no idea what made him remain in yhe hospital knowing exactly well the news that they were going to give him. Nevertheless, he stayed, he sat down waiting for the doctors, with a little flicker of hope burning in his heart against all rationality. He didnt know why it seemed like he would be heavily affected by thw death of Wesley. They werent close, they were not friends, they were always against each other. Buy somehow, he felt that he woukd actually miss fighting with him. He stayed still outside the room where a defilberator was being used on Wesley. Somehow, a prayer came to his heart and he repeatedly muttered it. Right before the doctor and nurses finished trying to revive Wesley, Jade ran to where Kraig was sitting, worry etched on her face.

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
