The Billionaire's Trials 019: On One Condition.
“You’ll have to stop insulting me and calling me a gold-digger.” Heaven would have never guessed that this is what Leo will ask for. He knew she'd definitely agree but on a second thought, he realized she might not even agree to his request. “Seriously?” Heaven asked him. Though, it’ll not be hard for her to succumb to his request but calling him such names makes her feel comfortable. She always has this urge to remind him that he is nothing without her grandfather's help. “Yeah.” Leo replied and turned on a recorder so that everything would be recorded. When she agrees, he will have evidence to prove that they both struck on a deal. After a few minutes of silence, she decided to give him the reply he obviously wants to hear, at least there will be nothing to prove that what he is saying is true. “Okay fine.” she told him reluctantly and rolled her eyes. Leo smiled when he heard her. It’s obvious that she doesn’t know that he has something to prove that she agreed to his condition.
The Billionaire's Trials 020: Isn't That The Reason Why You Are Here?
"Why haven't you started eating?," James asked Heaven when he saw that she hadn't even touched her food. She turned to look at him with her usual fake smile and Leo heaved a sigh of relief when he noticed that Heaven had stopped staring at him. “So scary.” He said to himself and took another bite of the food. “Leo… Mr Winslow contacted me," James turned the conversation to Leo as soon as Heaven started eating. Meanwhile, Leo was just about to swallow another mouthful of the delicious meal when he heard James' words. He almost choked while figuring how to explain what had happened. But before he even had a chance to do so, Heaven spoke. “Oh my! This is so delicious, grandfather.” James and Leo turned to her. She made sure to give him a wide smile for their attention. “Of course, it should be. Chef Jane personally cooked the dinner.” James seems to have forgotten the conversation he was having with Leo. After all, it isn't everyday that Heaven compliments something. “It was…” “Oh!
The Billionaire's Trials 021: I Don't Like Him.
“Are you surprised?” James asked after seeing her reaction. He knew that the only way that would make her visit him is to cut off her source of funds, that’s why he refused to listen to Leo when he spoke against it. “You should have just told me to come visit.” Heaven finally found her voice. To say she was speechless would be understatement. James smiled when he heard what she said while Leo ignored the two and continued eating. “Have you forgotten I called you last month?” Heaven was quiet when she heard this because she remembered he told her how he missed her and she should persuade her mom so they can visit him. Who knew that they would come because of Leo that day and angrily leave. “You know why mom and I refused to visit.” Even though her voice was accusing him, it was low enough to make James realize that she is feeling guilty. He sighed. He knows why they haven't visited him since that day. “Are you two going to remain angry with me forever?,” he couldn't help asking. He
The Billionaire's Trials 022: It's Grandfather... Not Sir.
“She was avoiding my question.” James hid a small, sad smile as he slowly ascended the stairs. He'd remembered that he hadn't informed Leo about what he'd planned to tell him. He also has to apologize for Heaven's behavior. A smile appeared on his face as he thought of how Leo had successfully been able to secure the contract with the Hilton's. That company is known for their meticulous ways. They don't easily offer contracts. “I knew I chose the right person.” he had the urge to pat his back as he advanced to Leo's room after mounting the stairs with great difficulty. Leo was unable to sleep so he took his phone to distract himself. Going to the browser was a 'no' cause he'd probably be even more angered with news of those traitors. His jaws tightened. Perhaps he needs to focus more on his goals and put Heaven's annoying antics behind him. He finally settled down to watching movies on YouTube. Watching some of the videos made him smile and temporarily forget his anger. “Who is th
The Billionaire's Trials 023: Whose Welcome Party?
“No. There is nothing wrong, I wanted to talk about Heaven and her mom. Hmm… You have to be patient with them. They’ll still accept you.” James looked skeptical, the opposite expression of his words. Leo nodded his head though he felt they would never accept him no matter what he does. Not like he cares anyway. “You just have to be patient.” James placed his hand on Leo’s shoulder and the latter nodded his head in agreement to James' words. Leo was still thinking about what James just told him when he suddenly remembered those two traitors. It's time to do something about them. He can't keep watching news feeds get bombarded with news of Mason and Mandy's success. “Grandfather," he called out slowly. "I just thought about something but I don’t know if you will be pleased to hear it.” James was surprised. “Let me hear you out first. It's left to me to decide if I like your idea or not,” he insisted, seeing that Leo looked reluctant. The latter swallowed nervously and wondered if he

Since he noticed there's no escaping the party, he decided to postpone it from the day he'd originally wanted the party to occur. “Sir, I think it’s still too early to do that," he told James after thinking about it for a while. “We can organize a little party and invite some people but I feel it's too soon,” he said and paused to look at the expression on James' face. Noticing the puzzled look on the latter's face, he continued,"Grandfather, I am not asking us to cancel the party. After all, it'll be a good opportunity to meet those two." However, he didn't say the last sentence aloud. James eyes probed him for explanation cause he really doesn't understand what this godson of his is thinking of. Shouldn't he be excited that he's finally gonna make the public know that he is the new head of the popular conglomerate? "I originally wanted to organize a party for Mrs Victoria and Heaven so they can come back to you but since you want to change the theme of the party to a welcome par
The Billionaire's Trials 025: Can't You Just Give Up?
Heaven was not expecting her mom to say that. She felt her mom was really trying her best to make her confess to where she had gone to even though she already knows. “Mom, why are you doing this?," Heaven sounded really upset as she walked out of the room. This time, Victoria didn't stop her. “Heaven, you can’t go upstairs now. It's time for dinner!," She immediately shouted so Heaven could hear her before mounting on the stairs. The brat simply ignored her words. If she thinks she shouldn't be guilty for yelling at her, then she is wrong! But just before she ascended the stairs, she stopped and gave her mom a curt reply,"I am not hungry." Victoria sighed after she heard her footsteps hurrying away. Perhaps she shouldn't have yelled at her like that, then she wouldn't be upset. “I just hate the fact that she visited him without telling me," she mumbled to herself as she walked to the dining table. Meanwhile, Heaven had already gotten to her room. Remembering everything that occure
The Billionaire's Trials 026: She Knew About It After All.
Heaven stood up from the bed and nonchalantly walked out of the room. There's no way she would risk her mom coming back to her room again. She walked downstairs and sat down in the dining room where her mom was already waiting for her. “What took you so long to get here?,” Victoria asked Heaven the moment she sat down on the chair. Heaven rolled her eyes and gave her mom a funny look. “Mom…” Heaven tried to say but Victoria raised her hand to stop Heaven from talking any further because she knows that Heaven will say something that she wouldn't want to hear. “It’s fine. I understand,” she told Heaven and took a bite of her food. Heaven nodded and served herself. No sooner had she started eating, that she noticed her mother was watching her. Heaven dropped her spoon and turned to look at her mom so she can know the reason why her mom has been staring at her like that. “What is it mom?” she asked, seeing that the culprit won't say anything unless she asks. Victoria folded her hands

She turned around to go back to the office. "I'm issuing a divorce immediately." Leo pulled her back and informed her amusedly,"Mrs Ceo, you must be married to me for at least six months to be able to issue a divorce." Heaven's eyes turned red from shyness and she spat out,"You trickster!" Leo moved closer and bent low to whisper into her ears,"Did I also trick you last night to... Mmph" His mouth was immediately covered by Heaven who looked around cautiously and flushed endlessly. She was asleep okay. He was the one that took advantage of her! Leo laughed and she was forced to release her hand when his lips vibrated against it sensually. "We didn't go all the way... Perhaps we could explore further tonight and maybe make a baby to appease the Grampa Wave." "You told grandpa?" She shrieked with widened eyes. "He didn't seem pleased," Leo led her to the car. Heaven felt infuriated. "You... You didn't even... Argh!" She screamed when she realized she was lost f

Leo scratched his head sheepishly and answered,"She is fine grandpa. She is asleep." Wave squinted his old eyes at the youngster and asked in a gruff time,"Why did you snatch her away? She only just came back and needs to rest. You didn't—" "Grandfather, we are heading to the bureau tomorrow." There was sudden silence in this revelation. Emily looked surprised and a smile soon spread out on her face. Meanwhile, Wave was speechless. When the words finally sunk in his brain, he yelled,"You rascal! How long have you had your eyes on her? How long has this been going on? Do you really think you'd be able to get her to the bureau without consulting me first?" Leo cringed at the noise. "Grandfather, she agreed to it. I'm afraid she might run off this time if I don't hold her down. Sorry I didn't let you know before this." "No... This is unacceptable! How could you—" "Congratulations cousin! Remember to share cash souvenirs after the registration," Q's voice from the back

170: Wave Wasn't Pleased.
The atmosphere of the car seemed to get even colder with the distance covered. Q quivered and looked consequently from Leo who'd literally turned to a huge block of ice emitting strong frostiness and Heaven, who was just sitting quietly in a corner. 'Just make up already,' he groaned inwardly but didn't say a word. All of a sudden, Leo ordered the chauffeur to stop the car, just a few meters away from Wave's manor. He ignored the looks he got from Q and Heaven and ordered,"Get out." Quan and Heaven exchanged looks confusedly until he repeated his words again,"Get out." The passenger's door automatically opened. Without thinking, Heaven made an attempt to walk out but Leo halted her movement with a cold glare. He was sitting opposite her so as soon as she saw the way he glared at her, she subconsciously sat back. Quan didn't need anyone to tell him that the person asked to get out was him. With grievance in his heart, he walked out. As he watched the car zoom off,

"Humph!" Valerie harrumphed when they appeared at the doorway of the conference room. She gave the woman, supposedly one of the receptionists, a condescending look and remarked,"Didn't you say I wasn't allowed into the company? Just my name was enough to make him run to me. I'll surely make you regret what you did today." Leo didn't refute her word as he was pushed in. He simply dismissed the receptionist,"You can leave." The receptionist was relieved to leave that place cause she immediately hurried away. "Boss, you have twenty more minutes till the next meeting," Jake bent low to inform him. He nodded and looked at Valerie with that same expressionless face. "You have just ten minutes. Why did you want to see me by all means?" Valerie appeared a bit embarrassed. She didn't think the receptionist would relay her words to Leo exactly as she said them. But she hid her embarrassed expression and frowned at Jake's presence. "I want to speak to you privately. Ask him to lea

But Jake didn't dare blurt out this thought. He cleared his throat and walked forward with a file. Pushing it forward, he said," I arranged your schedule again like you asked me to. Your next meeting is with the multinational company to close the deal...Blah blah blah," He recounted every single meeting schedule he'd arranged and Leo listened quietly while eating. However, the latter's eyes suddenly fell on a strange file. One he's never seen before. "Which file is that?" He pointed at it. Jake looked at it and suddenly reacted like he'd forgotten to mention something while saying the schedule just now. "You asked me to research Mason's company, remember? Initially, I got the result and wanted to inform you but that thing with uncle Miles came up and you asked me to suspend it." As he explained, Leo's eyes darkened. How could he simply forget about those two? He hasn't had his revenge on Scott and Mandy yet, so how could he let them be? He'd completely forgotten about

Leo looked up at the collection of pictures on the table and a soft look suddenly adorned his cold features. At first, he had been very confused as to why Heaven suddenly decided to leave the country months ago. The crisis was over and there were no murder threats anymore so why did she suddenly insist on going abroad? He had been angered and bittered about her decision for a long time, feeling she was inconsiderate of his feelings and simply selfish until he found the real reason why she went abroad. A month after her departure, he began to receive emails from Q with pictures of Heaven's endeavors abroad. Leo unintentionally moved closer to look at the pictures closely. One picture had Heaven wearing this cute overalls with a pencil tucked behind her ear and a folder in her hand. She was standing in front of a Corp. smiling at a company of three unfamiliar men. Leo frowned and suddenly brought out scissors from a drawer to trim out the other Intruders in the picture. Jake

"Mr Greene is fine and out of danger now. There weren't complications during the surgery since we were able to detect the poison early so he is perfectly okay," the doctor watched the people around him breath in relief. They were now in a fresh, clean Vvip ward and Leo was lying unconscious on the bed with Heaven sitting by his side. Receiving no questions, the doctor continued with his speech,"We would just like to put him under observation for some days because the poison weakened his body system and coupled with the large portion of anesthesia found in his blood—" Q coughed nervously when he heard this and subconsciously moved away from Wave who turned to the doctor with a puzzled look. "Anesthesia?" The doctor nodded at Wave's question. "Yes, we discovered that he had been injected with an overdose of anesthesia." Detective Tom itched his head nervously and exchanged a look with Q. Wave looked furious once again. "Just how far was Miles willing to go to get

"We should head there and wait for the operation to be over," Detective Tom suggested and others nodded in agreement to their words. As they left the ward and headed to the operation theater, Larson could still feel something was wrong. He glanced at everyone and turned to Q. "Say..." He whispered. "What happened while I was gone?" "Nothing," Q didn't even look at him. Larson took a stance against the walls as grandma Emily led Heaven to a bench. They had gotten to the operation theater and the bulb was still showing the red light to indicate that there was an ongoing operation. Larson pulled Q back when he saw that the latter was going to join grandma Emily and Heaven on the bench. He moved closer and asked again in a hushed tone,"Nothing?" "Why are you being so nosy all of a sudden? I already told you nothing happened." "I believe you are lying," Larson glared at him but this didn't faze the latter. "If you really don't want to tell, I'll get answers from the detective." "As

There was a sudden deafening silence in the room. Everyone literally froze at Q's revelation. "What?" Detective Tom managed to choke out. Q nodded. "Yes, my name is Quan Greene." "Which of the Greene's?" It was after detective Tom asked this question did he realize how stupid it sounds. He turned to Wave. "Granduncle, do you secretly have an illegitimate child outside that gave birth to this grandson?" As if on cue, grandma Emily and Wave glared at him at the same time causing him to seal his lips with his fingers. "Don't say nonsense and don't call me granduncle. I am not your relative. Do we look alike?" Wave retorted. "What's going on? Why is the private investigator saying his name is Quan Greene? How is he related to us?" Grandma Emily immediately demanded an answer. Wave ignored them and moved forward. He suddenly held Q and shook the boy. The sudden attack caused Q to feel light-headed. "You stinky child! You've been here the whole time yet you didn't come
