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

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
The Billionaire's Trials 114: The Root Of The Problems.
Leo finally chuckled and walked into the closet. The sound of the closet doors closing made Heaven release her fingers. She heaved a sigh of relief and fanned her face which was practically on fire. Her eyes shot up at the air conditioner. Huh? It's on so why is it so hot in here?**** Somewhere in the city... The shady part of San Francisco_ "What the hell!? Are you really sure about this?," A voice thundered from the shadow... The streets were exceptionally quiet with only the sound of the stray cats in the neighborhood resounding every now and then. The man in the mask rested against the dirty walls of the alley, trying to hide his disgust. His eyes trailed around the darkness for a while but he finally gave up when he couldn't find the person he was searching for. It's too dark anyway. "Yes," This time, his voice sounded gruff. "They are planning to make that boy the head of the family. The audio tape from the CCTV footage never lies, does it?" The second, anonymous man guff
The Billionaire's Trials 115: You... Pervert!
Heaven frowned, revealing her discomfort. Why won't this annoying sound go away? She tried to reach out for a pillow and discovered that she was pinned down by something or shall I say someone? Her frown deepened and she opened her eyes. Realizing that someone was knocking on the door rapidly, she yawned slightly and tried to get out of bed. That's when she noticed that she was being held down by Leo's arm. It was as heavy as a log of wood and wouldn't budge no matter how she tried to lift it. Besides that, she could feel his body plastered against hers! She gasped lowly. He... He... He actually dares to cross his boundaries and cuddle her like this! She tried to move, struggling slowly but suddenly came to a stop when she felt something stiffening behind her back. She could feel the hardness from the way it was poking her. Realizing what it is, she blushed. She didn't dare to make another move in case that thing tears out of his pants! But the knocks wouldn't stop. They even in
The Billionaire's Trials 116: Two Lonely Hearts...
"Uhmm... Uhmm," Heaven struggled to get some words out but her mind wouldn't budge. It simply went blank. Mae's round eyes looked at her curiously, patiently waiting for an answer. "No one," She finally answered, in a rush. "I clearly heard the sound of a door being closed now and you are..." "Do you wanna hangout with me today? I... I'm so lonely and bored. I feel so depressed," She suddenly cut off Mae's sentence, playing the pity cards. The reason why I mentioned pity cards is because the pitiful look on her face really made her look so depressed and the sad expression tugged Mae's kind heart strings. "Yes, of course. That's the reason I initially called," She seemed to have forgotten the conversation they were having just now. She didn't even notice the look of relief on Heaven because it only appeared for a minute before it quickly faded away. "I don't want you feeling all depressed and thinking too much. But, is it okay for you to go out now?," Mae's voice lowered and made
The Billionaire's Trials 117: Made A Certain Director Tongue-tied.
"With four votes, it has been concluded that Mr Greene won. So Mr Greene Miles will be our next chairman!" Jake gulped and held the door frame as he watched the middle-aged man in the middle of the conference room announce the most absurd news he has ever heard. How could these groups of greedy old wackos elect someone that isn't even part of the directing board? Someone that has never been part of the directing board! He glanced outside the room once again hoping to catch sight of his boss this time but the empty hallway entertained his eyes. He sighed in disappointment and looked away. If the boss doesn't really show up today, he is surely going to lose the company. It's even worse that he as the assistant can't do anything to assist his boss. But with Miles in the board meeting and others, he isn't in a favorable position to counter their decision. Who would have thought that Miles would even show up? "But Mr Greene isn't even part of the directors!," Jake heaved a s

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
