The Billionaire's Trials 029: Was It A Prank Call?
“Dad.” Victoria said as she walked closer to James. She still could not believe what was going on. Heaven walked behind her and they both stood beside James. “Grandfather.” Heaven also called his name. They turned to look at each other again. “You are finally here. I've been waiting for you.” James said them and paused what he was eating. Leo turned off the music immediately so they could hear what they were saying. “Dad but you…” Victoria stopped talking so that she will not look stupid. James already understood what she was trying to say so he just smiled and took a bite from the food on his table. “Leo, what was that call about?” Victoria had to face Leo when she noticed her dad looked perfectly fine. Leo was wondering why she had to pass the aggression on him. Though he was not surprised because it's obvious how much they hate him so this is just a chance for them to blame him for this as well. However, he remained quiet. He didn't know how to justify himself again because Jam
The Billionaire's Trials 030: Fine! Three Can Play The Game!
“Why did I rush back in?” Heaven asked herself when she noticed she just did the most stupid thing she’ll never imagine she can do. Victoria looked at her when she saw her standing in front of the door. “Heaven, come over here," she called. Heaven wanted to ignore because she was angry with her grandfather a few minutes ago. But she rushed to her mom and her grandfather. She stood beside her grandfather and all of a sudden, she remembered what she just did and she started feeling bad again. Leo was still sitting outside the ward. He was dumbfounded by what just happened. “Was she trying to avoid me?” Leo asked himself. And the moment he concluded in his head that she is avoiding him, he realized the hatred is getting stronger with each passing day. Leo stood up and walked away from the front of the ward. He felt he needed some space to breathe. He felt suffocated. “Heaven, are you okay?” Victoria asked when she noticed that Heaven was acting differently. Heaven gave her a slight
The Billionaire's Trials 031: What Is Wrong With Me?
“I don’t know anything about his refusal to go home.” Leo answered her. Leo was surprised Victoria was talking to him calmly. It's certainly what he wasn't expecting. “Why is she so calm?” Leo asked himself and continued looking at her. He really doesn't know the kind of person Victoria is because they have not spent time together. Maybe that’s why he is surprised at her calmness. “But you are always around him, you should know things I don’t know by now,” Victoria gave him a sharp gaze. Leo could tell she was desperately in need of a reply from him that can help her understand something. “Why is she so interested in this talk?” Leo asked himself once again. When he looked at her face, he could tell she was scared and worried at the same time. “Things like what?” Leo asked her and she raised her head to look at him when he asked her the question. “Leo!” Heaven shouted in her mind when she saw that Leo was the person standing with her mom. Heaven was upset with her mom for standing
The Billionaire's Trials 032: It's This Way.
“Dad, I don’t understand what you are saying.” Victoria looked perplexed. James turned to her when he heard what she said. “I am the one you are finding it hard to understand. I made a decision and you have decided not to understand my reason.” James explained. Victoria was calm after listening to her father. She felt like he was trying to emotionally blackmail her, but he finally won. Judging by his health condition, she could tell he is not fine and it’s because of their absence in the house. Victoria turned to look at James. She felt bad because she had to go back on her words. She promised herself not to ever return to that house or else Leo is out. But now she has no other choice but to go back home. “It’s fine. You win.” Victoria informed him. At first, James was confused until he tried to understand what she was saying. He turned to look at her and from the look on his face, the excitement was obvious. “Do you mean you are coming back home?” Janes asked Victoria to confirm
The Billionaire's Trials 033: Are They Coming Back Here?
“Mom, what’s grandfather talking about?” Heaven asked Victoria after hearing James ' words. A puzzled look appeared on her face. “I’ll talk to you about it when we get home.” Victoria gave a curt reply. She couldn’t even look at Heaven's face when she was talking. She didn't know how she was going to break the news of their current situation to her. Heaven noticed her acting like she was trying to avoid looking at her. She felt like whatever her mother is gonna tell her is something she wouldn't like. But she turned to the car window to look at those passing by. “I hope it’s not what I’m thinking.” she said to herself while thinking of her mother's suspicious actions. Victoria turned to look at Heaven and sighed. They might probably get into a huge argument when she breaks the news to her. Victoria sighed heavily again and looked away. Meanwhile, Leo couldn’t stop thinking about what Victoria just said. “Was she thinking right when she said that?” Leo asked himself while h
The Billionaire's Trials 034: How Will I Cope?
“What did she mean by that?” Victoria asked no one in particular before heading upstairs. “Heaven, you cunning brat. What are you trying to do?” she asked again while she was walking upstairs. Heaven got to her room and she looked around the room. She walked to her wardrobe and placed her hand on it. There was no single dust on it. “I missed my room.” she said aloud and laid on the bed. She brought out her phone and started taking pictures while she was laying on the bed. When she was done, she posted them and immediately, she started having likes as usual. She dropped the phone back on the bed and stood up when she heard a knock on her door. She went to get the door. It was one of the servants in the house. He dropped her luggage in the room and bowed before walking out of the room. When he left the room, she closed the door and moved the box towards her. She opened the box and looked tired already because there were so many clothes inside it that she didn’t know where to
The Billionaire's Trials 035: We Have Been Waiting For You.
“Why do I even need to live with him?” Heaven asked herself angrily because she feels like Leo isn’t a member of the family so there is no reason why he needs to remain in the house. She thought about telling her grandfather about it but she suddenly remembered how James always defended Leo. He will never listen to whatever anyone says about Leo. It somehow feels like jazz to Heaven because her grandfather practically listens to everything Leo says to him without trying to find out if it’s the truth or not. Even if she says something wrong that is actually correct about Leo to her grandfather, he will not listen to her. It looks more like he has adopted Leo to be the son he never had. “It’s sickening.” Heaven said to herself and fell on her bed. She heard a sound from her phone. She reluctantly stretched her hand to grab her phone and soon saw that it was a text message. She could suddenly hear her heart beat faster when she read the content of the message. She sat up on t
The Billionaire's Trials 036: Mom... What Do You Mean?
Leo just decided to ignore her and turned to his food. James was still in shock after hearing what Heaven just said to Leo. He finally looked away after staring at Heaven for a while. He felt he must have heard wrongly. Heaven looked away and lowered her head to start eating her food. She took a spoon from her plate when she noticed Leo was about to serve himself. “Let me help you do that.” Heaven quickly sat up and stretched to collect the spoon from him. Once again, Leo, Victoria and James were shocked by Heaven’s strange actions. Victoria dropped her spoon on her plate angrily when she noticed that Heaven was obviously trying to be nice to Leo. She glared at Heaven angrily. She knows how much the latter hates Leo so why is she being nice to him all of a sudden? “Was she pretending to hate him?," Victoria asked herself while she was watching her serve Leo with a very bright smile. Leo was left stunned. He couldn’t even protest against Heaven helping him. He just gave it

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
