The Billionaire's Trials 096: Where... Where Are You Taking Grandfather?
Heaven couldn't reply. Her shoulders shook terribly as she wept. Leo on the other hand found that he couldn't move from that spot... No... This must be just a nightmare. A terrible dream. Nothing more. That certainly isn't James in the bed with a bloodied, unrecognizable face. He couldn't hear anything. He couldn't see anything like he was in a trance. In the background, he heard a few people talking. Someone said,"Young miss, I have called the ambulance. They will be here soon." "Young miss, I already informed the cops about what happened. They are on their way." Hearing the last statement, Leo's body swayed. He fell on his knees. His head bent low. Once again... He'd lost another. Mom died this way. She was assassinated in their house, in their small bedroom. It was a horrible sight for a six years old boy to witness then. He couldn't even understand why his father kept on insisting that they change location until he'd come back from school one day, walked into the slum and me
The Billionaire's Trials 097: Mom... What Are You Saying?
Heaven got lost in staring at the contact card. So he's a detective from the city police station. Why then did he say he isn't one of the cops then? Aren't they the same? A low shuffle sound on the bed and a groan of pain caused Heaven to turn her attention to the bed. "Mom!," She sounded relieved. "You are finally awake." Victoria didn't respond. She was just trying to sit up. But that stopped when she caught sight of the occupant of the bed beside hers. Her eyes widened with anger and her face turned red as she yelled,"What's this murderer doing in this room!? Get him away from me! I don't want to see his disgusting face that deserves to rot in hell!" The hand that had wanted to touch the door knob stopped and detective Tom turned around. Oh! So he is still in the room? "Mom... What are you saying? Please calm down," She struggled to hold Victoria back. The latter was going bonkers! "Why did you let him in!? I'm gonna kill this b*stard! I swear with the last drop of bl

"Aunt," He greeted and turned to Heaven. He rushed to her and helped her up. "What's wrong with you? Are you alright?" The remaining officers exchanged a look of surprise. They have never seen their boss act this way before. Even though he is much younger than most of them, he was quickly promoted to the post of D.C.O (Divisional Crime Officer.) His usually stoic and expressionless face had quickly won him fame in the station. They weren't even aware that he had family members because as far as they know, he is an orphan or was supposed to be. "Officer Joe, it's great that you are here. I was just about to send a message," Detective Tom interrupted whatever word Victoria had to say. But the latter didn't look offended. Joe looked at Heaven's pale face again and turned to the detective. The smile on his face disappeared and his signature cold expression appeared. He nodded and detective Tom walked forward. "Miss...," He paused and pointed at Victoria. He just realized that he

"You are finally awake Leo. How do you feel now?," Two people frowned at this question. The first person was Leo. He stared at Joe's face hard, trying to recollect where he must have seen him before but after a few minutes of deep thoughts, he decided that he has never met Joe before. The second person is Victoria. She frowned at the fact that Joe was acting more calm with Leo than she had expected. Why the heck is everyone just disregarding her evidence? "I'm fine," Leo finally answered. He sat up and tried to hold back a wince. "Who are you?" "I'm Joe. The divisional crime officer of the city's police station. I'm in charge of James Greene murder case," Joe flashed a badge at him. The latter didn't even notice it. He simply fell silent at the words 'murder case'. He stared into space, wondering how everything suddenly went wrong. Why did James have to die? Why did they kill him? How did they manage to bypass the tight security in the house and get rid of his godfather

Joe was starting to feel frustrated. "Mr Leo, you aren't really making this easy for us. If you would just cooperate with the us, we will be able to get this over with." Leo banged his hand on the table right then and finally ranted,"What the f*ck do you expect me to say!? What else do you want me to say that I haven't told you? I already said I'm not that killed James. He was like my grandfather for f*uck sake." "Mr Leo, do you think we would let every criminals brought in here go just because they claimed to be innocent?," Joe snickered. Leo couldn't do anything than clench his fists tightly. Great! Now he is being referred to as a criminal for doing absolutely nothing. "So, I'll advise you to listen attentively to my questions and answer carefully. It won't hurt to...," Joe's words was interrupted by the creak of the door. He and Leo turned to the direction of the door. A cop walked in and saluted Joe first before laying out the info he'd acquired,"Sir, the test result

"Thank you," She even mumbled a word of thanks to the doctor and didn't notice the uncomfortable look on his face as he hurriedly packed up his tools. One of them fell on the floor, making a loud crash sound and Heaven didn't hesitate to bend down to pick it up. But she noticed how jittery the doctor's hands seemed when he collected the tool back. He didn't even remember to thank her in his nervousness and just left the room. Heaven watched him leave with a weird look on her face but shrugged. He must have a reason for acting so weird. She continued to watch her mother until she fell asleep. She was awoken a few minutes later by the guard she'd ordered to get her food. Feeling strange, Heaven asked him to stay back in the room and began to devour the food. By the time she was done, the takeaway was in an unrecognizable condition. She discarded it in the trash can and suddenly felt nature's calling. Heaven grimaced as she held her stomach. She really couldn't hold it

The doctor remained mute but he turned jittery. His palms were starting to sweat. Leo squinted at him. He is sure of what he is saying. He's had one kind of photographic memory since he was young so he wouldn't easily forget people that left a kind of impact on him except the insignificant ones. He ignored the whispers around him and grabbed the scared doctor by the collar, almost choking him. "I asked you a question and what I expect from you is an answer. Where is the doctor that was on duty earlier?" "Sir... There were so many... Doctors on duty... So how am I... Supposed to know... The one you are... Talking about?," The doctor managed to get the words out of his mouth with great difficulty. That was when Leo realized that he was choking him so he loosened his tight hold on the collar a little but not letting go completely. He moved closer to the doctor with a sinister smile. "Don't you dare try to act smart with me? You must know something at least an answer to my q

Larson chuckled. "Is that doubt I sense in you officer Joe? Why don't you go on investigating the actual murderer starting from the doctor instead of wasting your time bickering with me!" Joe was so infuriated. The bastard dared to use his own words against him. Has he no respect for the officer of law!? Feeling like he might explode with anger if he continued to stay there, he turned to the doctor who had long since shrunk back in fear at the argument. He just pulled the poor man by the collar and dragged him out of the ward. "Brother, do you think we can rely on these cops to get to the root of the matter?," Miles spoke for the first time. His words were however lowered and meant for Wave's eyes only. Wave rubbed his tired eyes. His hair seemed to have grown whiter even more. He sighed,"We have known Joe since he was installed into the post of a mere sergeant so I know we can trust him. Besides, he owes his entire life and what he had become to Victoria. So he definitely

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
