The Billionaire's Trials 106: Fish Stench.
Joe walked into the ward with a solemn expression but was quick to notice that the ambience of the room seemed weird. It was weird but he couldn't pinpoint exactly what was weird in it. Wave and Leo walked to him immediately when they noticed him. He briefly glanced around. Miles was nowhere to be seen. Huh? Where did he go? "Were you able to find anything?," Wave asked as soon as they got to him. Joe sighed and rubbed his eyes. In just a day, a case has made him more exhausted than he has ever been in his entire life. "No," His reply was concise. "No?," Leo repeated. "What do you mean no? Did you or did you not find the person you were searching for?" Joe was irked by Leo's questioning tone. His eyes narrowed as he snapped,"The man is dead! He was murdered before we even got there. The murderer obviously knew we were gonna hunt the doctor down so he got there first before us and silenced him." Leo and Wave fell silent. The latter fell into a deep thought. He now
The Billionaire's Trials 107: Foiled Plan.
The white walls weren't the first thing Heaven noticed when her eyes finally flew open. It was the woman beside her, looking at her worriedly. She immediately tried to sit up, arousing the woman's attention. "No honey, you should lay back," Grandma Emily hurriedly held her down gently and arranged the pillows behind her carefully. Others in the room came closer. "How do you feel now?," Miles asked her, the worry evident in his dim eyes. "I'm fine." Grandma Emily noticed that Heaven's voice was hoarse so she reached out to the jug of clean water beside the bed and poured out a cup. Then she had to help Heaven sit up again and hold the cup till the latter emptied it. "I had the weirdest dream," Heaven suddenly spoke, startling the three people in the room. Before anyone could speak or ask her what her dream was, she explained,"I had a dream that mom was dead. She was lying in a bloody bed with lifeless eyes." Then she laughed. Her words and reaction was making the peopl
The Billionaire's Trials 108: Head Of Greene's.
Leo's phone vibrated and after he checked the message, he looked at Wave. "Grandfather, we will be able to leave soon if no problem crops up. The chauffeur is on his way. Do you want to come along or would you rather visit later?" Wave was about to answer but Miles suddenly butt in,"Wait what? What are you two talking about?" The hoarseness of his voice was clear enough. Probably due to his old age. He looked at Wave and then glared at Leo as usual. When none of them refused to answer, realization finally dawned on him. "Brother!," He called out in shock. "You are really gonna let our granddaughter live with him. Didn't Joe explain to you that he is the prime suspect of these murders? Besides, who else would benefit the most if James and Victoria were out of this world and now you want Heaven to leave with him!?" Leo's lips twitched with anger. He gets that they don't like him but why slander him baselessly like this!? "That's my final decision," Wave sounded tired. He rea
The Billionaire's Trials 109: Why Is Your Face So Red?
"I'm fine," Leo snapped. He realized how harsh he sounded just now so he subconsciously lowered his voice. "I'm fine really. Don't waste your time coming over." There was silence for a while when Leo began to think that she had probably agreed. But then, she said,"I have to go now. I don't wanna miss my flight." With a mischievous chuckle, she ended. "Wait what!?," Leo exclaimed, sitting up. He looked at the phone screen and realized that she already ended the call. He immediately tried calling her back only for the calls to be disconnected over and over again. He made a low hissing sound and tossed his phone away. "What's wrong? Why don't you want your girlfriend to come over?," Leo was startled by the sudden soft voice that asked. But he was quick to answer,"She is not my girlfriend." He then turned back only to see the amused smile on grandma Emily's face. His eyes unconsciously trailed off to Heaven and when he saw that her eyes were closed, he frowned slightly. D
The Billionaire's Trials 110: Hawk.
"Can I have them?," The officer was startled by detective Tom's sudden request. He looked down at the bundle of newspapers in his hands, frowning at the way the dust from them smeared his uniform. "Sir... These are just trash," The officer sounded uncertain but Tom shook his head and stretched his hands to collect the newspaper. The officer didn't dare to object so he just gave the papers to Tom and turned around to walk back into the room. Tom didn't leave. He followed behind the officer and when he walked in, he wasn't surprised to see officers everywhere, searching through the deceased things. Even the room was in a mess. He hurriedly put down the newspaper and the first thing he noticed was the headline. His brows furrowed as he mumbled it out softly,"Hawk? How come I never heard of him." The headline stated,'THERE HAS BEEN PRISON BREAK AND ONE OF THE CRIMINALS ON LOOSE, HAWK WAS SENTENCED TO BE MURDERED THIS WEEK.' This week? Detective Tom checked the date of t
The Billionaire's Trials 111: Caught Him Staring.
"Gone?," Heaven's frown deepened. She didn't notice that he was staring at her intensely. "Why did she leave?" She didn't expect Emily and Wave to leave just like that. She thought they were gonna stay over. She suddenly felt goosebumps and looked up at him. He looked away just in time. Heaven eyebrows knitted in confusion. Was he just staring at her or she was imagining things? "The food will get cold if we don't eat now," His voice sounded hoarse. He was even avoiding looking at her. "Hmm," She nodded even if he couldn't see her and walked to the dining room. She picked a random seat just at the same time that he chose a seat. Their eyes unknowingly collided and she noticed his brown eyes looked darker than before. He broke the staring contest first and looked away only for his eyes to fall on her slightly exposed bosoms. Heaven noticed this time and her cheeks immediately dimpled. Even her skin flushed. She adjusted her T-shirt and he looked away again. Feeling em
The Billionaire's Trials 112: Digging Into The Database.
Joe rubbed his aching temple with a frustrated look. This whole thing is seriously starting to confuse him. Why would a mentally ill woman appear in the same place every time yet no one in the neighborhood could pinpoint who drops her off there? What is her connection to doctor Andy's death? Judging by the fish stench he perceived from her body and Andy's, he could deduce that she isn't completely innocent about what happened. The last question is - 'Who is she?' "Boss," Joe looked up when his subordinate shook his arm. "You can leave now," He waved his hand and looked down, missing the relieved/happy look on the officer's face as he bowed and whispered words of appreciation. Joe barely even heard the sound of the door closing as he fell into deep thoughts. He picked up a pen and a clean sheet of white paper. He wrote Leo's name first and every other list of suspects he had in mind including Wave, Heaven, Miles and others. But then he drew a long line in front of Leo's name and
The Billionaire's Trials 113: G-Rated(^_^メ)
Leo's eyes darkened when he noticed that familiar dark coloured dove ink just above her midriff. It seemed to trailed downwards but he could only see the ones her shorts didn't conceal. Did she get that tattoo all the way down there? He suddenly realized what he was thinking about and shook his head, looking away immediately. He felt the sudden urge to smack himself on the face. 'Jeez Leo, seriously!? You are thinking of her f* p...,' he gulped slightly, unable to complete the sentence even in his head. What the heck is going on with him? Why is he suddenly thinking of these lewd things with Heaven on his mind? "Leo." He snapped out his thoughts when he heard her voice. "Yes," He coughed slightly in an attempt to hide his nervousness but her words sent his hardwork flying out through the window. "Can... Can I sleep in your room tonight?" He choked and turned around hurriedly to grab a glass of water. It was so quiet that he almost didn't hear her but when he did... "What!?," W
