The Billionaire's Trials 082: Why Can't I Hear Anything?
"What did you do that for?," His nose scrunched up in distaste. Valerie giggled at his reaction. Yep! He definitely is that type of man that doesn't like any form of intimate action like kissing. He lifted his hand to wipe his cheek but she hurriedly stopped him,"If you wipe off the stain from your cheek, I'll kiss the other cheek too." His hand halted instantly. He went silent and just stared at her. "Hey," She called softly. "I'm sorry, okay? I didn't mean to hide my identity. I just thought you'd reject me if you knew I was the daughter of your soon-to-be business partner." 'And that I'm hopelessly in love with you,' she didn't add this statement though. How the heck is she supposed to explain that she'd fallen for a man she hadn't even met? Others may call it infatuation but she knows what she is feeling. She's studied him for so long to know that he isn't a kind of man to adore affection so the only way she could get to him was with her beauty and her offer. The one ab
The Billionaire's Trials 083: Please Make Them Stop.
Heaven paused and read the message again. The first message actually. 'The one that displayed,'Aiyo... That was a mistake. That message isn't meant for you.' She scrolled the messages upwards and read his previous message,'What? Do you miss me already?' She rolled her eyes. If this message wasn't meant for her, then who is meant for? His girlfriend? Her phone chimed with another message and she scrolled downwards. He had sent another message to her,'I can see that you are still online so why aren't you replying?' Heaven suddenly had the urge to press the 'block' button. He still has the nerve to ask her that question. You wanna know what she did instead? She turned off her mobile data and even switched off the phone before facing the laptop on her bed. It's late anyway so she won't waste anymore time talking to that bastard.*************** Leo raised his phone in frustration. Why has the network bar turned red? It's currently displaying a 'no connection' signal. "Why is there
The Billionaire's Trials 084: Cut The Chase.
Everywhere was silent except from the windy sound that indicated a heavy rainfall and the sounds coming from Jake's phone as he waited for the call to connect. The phone rang for a while but no one answered it so it got disconnected. Jake looked at Leo and shook his head to tell him that no one answered. "Try again. If no one answers, I'm gonna get rid of those incompetent fools as soon I get back," His words shook Jake to the core. He hurriedly tried calling again. Meanwhile, Sienna stood quietly by the side. There was a faint dreamy look on her face as she gazed at Leo. Even the way he looked angry just made him appear even more handsome. She wished they'd never get to meet again under these unfortunate circumstances. Her original plan was to charm him, seduce him and then grasp him round her finger but she'd had to put a stop to her plan and job to rush here and seek for mercy! She wiped the sweat off her brows. Though it's cold and windy out here, she's actually sweating at t
The Billionaire's Trials 085: Who Asked You To Call Her That?
"Of course boss. We'll even be able to leave on Friday if you want us to," Jake nodded. "But... Boss, don't you want to go sightseeing?" Leo closed the notepad and gave it back to him. He turned around and began to unbutton his shirt. "No, I have something important to do at home." Jake took his reply as the end of that conversation and quietly left the room. But on his way out, he kept on wondering what was so important that the boss needed to rush back? Leo had already tossed his shirt away and was beginning to remove his pants when his phone rang. He paused and reached out to take the phone that was on the bed. As soon as he saw the caller id, his eyes stilled a bit. "Hello," his monotonic voice made Valerie feel a sense of nostalgia. She secretly prayed that he wouldn't hear her fast heartbeats. "Hey," She answered coolly, a complete contrast to how she felt. "I saw your message so I decided I'd call instead." "Hmm," Leo made a low sound and dropped the phone on th
The Billionaire's Trials 086: She Freaking Hugged Him!
As soon as he realised that he was the one they were talking about, Jake took a few steps backwards. "Boss... Don't look at me that way. It's like you wanna eat me whole. I'm innocent," He cried out with a pitiful look, rushing to stand behind Alan. The latter tried to move away but he held him. Since Alan learnt how to use him as his shield, he won't hesitate to do the same. It's called repaying bad deeds with bad deeds! "Did you or did you not say that?," Leo demanded, standing akimbo. Jake swallowed noiselessly,"I said so boss." His voice was low, so low that they almost didn't hear him. "But believe me boss, I never mentioned anything else to him. I didn't even tell him to call her cousin in-law." "Don't call her that again. She is not even my girlfriend," Jake and Alan exchanged a look while Leo turned back to the suitcase he was unpacking. They shrugged at each other with a similar confused look on their faces. If she isn't his girlfriend, then who is she to him? **
The Billionaire's Trials 087: He Literally Shuddered...
Leo's mind suddenly went blank as she wrapped her hands around his waist. He suddenly realised how short she was. Her head was barely reaching his neck. She has a voluptuous body but she was slightly shorter than most women he'd seen. How come he never realised this!? Wait... How come she is hugging him!? But this didn't stop him from unconsciously returning the hug. She looked up at him and smiled. The first genuine smile he'd ever seen on her face. "You dummy! I thought you weren't going to come back in time. Did you have fun teasing me like that?," Of course, her first word would be to call him names. But this time, he didn't find it as irritating as it used to feel. When she called him dummy now, he actually felt she was cute! Yikes! Leo... What's wrong with you? "Of course. It wouldn't be a surprise if I told you. Besides, you did something that upset me alot... Well, that's understandable since you are always doing things to upset me," he frowned a little. While say
The Billionaire's Trials 088: Shouldn't You Start Calling Me Brother?
"Boo!," Leo jumped in fright. He almost fell backwards on the person behind him. Heaven moved backwards and burst into laughter. "I can't believe you were scared of my hand! Hahahaha!," She held her stomach as she rolled in laughter. He looked at her and faked an angry expression. "Why would you do that?," As he said this, he heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing that she is in a good mood, the argument with her mother ended well. "Well... I was so engrossed in looking at the bottles of yogurt that I didn't notice you." The laughter immediately ceased as she rushed to the fridge,"Don't touch my babies. They are for me only." Leo looked at the fridge and turned back to her in surprise. "Are you going to finish all that? There are so many flavors. Why did you even order so many?," He looked surprised. "None of your business," She took out one bottle of the yogurt. "I thought that since we'd become friends, there is no need to say snippy words at me or call me names anymore," he spoke s
The Billionaire's Trials 089: I Miss You.
"Hi," She whispered and he tucked his hand in his pocket while gazing at the sky."How are you doing? Isn't it late there already? Shouldn't you be in bed?," Valerie was overwhelmed with his questions. It sounded as if he cares."I miss you," She told him frankly and Leo was speechless. He chuckled and looked down the rail."Did the party end early?," He successfully maneuvered the topic. It felt weird to hear her say she missed him."Yes," Valerie gave a short reply with a sad smile. She is well aware that he'd changed the discussion to something else. Why should it be only her that keeps on feeling this way?Why doesn't he feel something too? Even a tiny bit... That night, he wouldn't even let her kiss him... Like a full kiss on the mouth. How can there be a sexual relationship between two people if the man isn't even willing to kiss the woman?"Leo...," She called with a resolute, determined look."Yes.""I said I miss you. Didn't you hear me or you are just deliberately ignoring 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,

169: Get In.
"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
