The Billionaire's Trials 125: Deja Vu.
Leo's lopsided smile appeared again as he noticed her ears turning pink. He had an inkling to what she was thinking. If she would have acted bashful like this after just sharing a bed with him, why did she plead to stay in his room then? But he indeed instructed the maids to prepare her favorite meals. He had already given them instructions before they went to bed. He isn't disappointed that she didn't eat it. He's just worried. She skipped her meals. If Mae didn't notice it on time, it could go on for a long time without him finding out because he would have been too busy with the company. "Here... Drink this before it gets cold," He stretched the cup of tea to her. "I might puke if I drink that... I don't want to," She stubbornly refused. Leo smiled again. Does she know that she is whining like a child? "Then... I'll drink it. I bet Mae's good at cooking too. I might try her dishes before leaving," He mumbled nonchalantly and raised the cup. Heaven's hands clenched aga
The Billionaire's Trials 126: Thought Our Ceo Was Sterile...
Leo ignored the curious looks he got at the company as he walked to the elevator while carrying Heaven in his arms. A team of bodyguards were following behind him. "OMG! Is that our Ceo!?," One of the employees whispered. "I never thought I'd get to see the Ceo carry a lady in his arms. I always thought that perhaps that thing wasn't working well." This comment garnered a lot of gasps. "Better make sure that word doesn't get to the Ceo. This should be able to tell you that he's straight and not what you think. How could you even imply that he's sterile?" "He'd have your head on his table if he hears that!" "But she didn't lie... She was only speaking the truth. Our Ceo has always shown great contempt for any close contact with a female so what else were you expecting us to think?" "I don't care what you guys say. He'll always be my dream guy. Haa! I have to take a picture of this moment and cherish it forever." The bodyguards swept the place with their cold gazes an
The Billionaire's Trials 127: In A Wrong Row.
"Leo," Heaven sounded weary as she called out to him. "Heaven?," Detective Tom's eyes widened. He glanced at Leo then back to Heaven. So... This is what or who the rascal was tryna hide in the room. Why does his sixth sense keep probing him that something is fishy? Leo stood up, completely ignoring the detective's presence. One part of him was dying to know how much she heard while the other was simply worried. Seems like worrying has become a constant thing in his life these days... At least, after the whole scenario that's been going on. "You couldn't sleep?," He asked as soon as he got to her. She shook her head sideways as a response. But before he could say something, she whispered in a hoarse tone,"I... I saw mom. She was... She was lying on that bed looking all bloody and..." She choked, unable to complete her sentence. It seemed like she had cried before stepping out. Detective Tom's eyes widened when Leo suddenly pulled Heaven into a hug and wrapped his hands
The Billionaire's Trials 128: Her Secret.
"Then turn around and leave. I'm giving you twenty minutes to come back here with our lunch," Leo's tone left no room for argument. Jake grumbled lowly and turned around. As the door closed behind him, Heaven gave Leo a discerning look. "You shouldn't treat him like he's your servant. Show some respect. He should be older than you " Leo chuckled,"Did he complain? I'm not treating him like a servant. He's my friend." Heaven didn't reply to this. She simply looked around the office and then stared at the desktop on his desk. "Can I borrow this for some minutes?," She pointed at them. Leo looked at her and then nodded. He brought out his phone and just then, a picture came in. It was from Valerie. When he clicked on it, he realized that it was a picture of the dishes she has prepared for him. Noting that Leo was paying no attention to her, she walked to his system and went to the browser. Typing out a website, she inputted the log in details and as soon as she was logged
The Billionaire's Trials 129: Boss Lady (Not Edited.)
Leo clicked on the pictures to check them out but before it could load, a message came in from an unregistered number. He exited Valerie's chat and click on the new message instead. Because he had already viewed the message, it was marked read on Valerie's phone so she kept on refreshing the chat to see if he had replied or not. 'Boss, Larson mentioned that he's been snooping around and managed to find out from officer Joe that the new suspect is the mentally ill old woman he met at the doctor's house but unfortunately, no one knows her location so they haven't been able to question her. I managed to track down her location, should I send it?' Leo knew instantly that the message is from Q. He wanted to reply with a voice message but he remembered just in time that Heaven is also in the room. He resorted to sending a text instead,'Yes. And I just spoke with the detective in charge of this case. He's got some lead of an unknown Mr Hawk. Never heard of him before. But the dete
The Billionaire's Trials 130: Investigation Day One.
'Relax... Relax everyone. I'm perfectly fine. I just took a break for a few days. No need to worry so much and if you have an important message for me, send it to my inbox privately.' Heaven sat back on the swiveling chair after she had sent this message. I'm left reeling in shock. Is Heaven the boss lady they are referring to? 'Boss, take a look at this. This is what the client wants but— It's so difficult to get the appropriate design,' someone sent a message to Heaven, replying privately to the one she sent to the group. Heaven looked closely at the blueprint. I can't see anything on the screen except a pale white background with a few lines on it. Heaven moved her hands on the mouse and clicked on the cursor. The screen gradually began to bring out the theme of whatever picture it is. Just a few minutes later, I'm astounded at what I'm seeing. It seems to be the layout design of a lounge or is it a restaurant if I'm not wrong. It's a beautiful royal blue color desi
The Billionaire's Trials 131: The Old Janitor.
Detective Tom's hands flipped the pages faster. The next information displayed Hawk's personal life. It stated that he was divorced but had a child. Where is the child now? It also mentioned that he has a mother. Is his mother still alive? The remaining information was also useless to the detective because it only contained analysis about Hawk's job. Detective Tom closed the file when he reached the last page. He realized two things. There was not a single picture of Hawk in the file. There wasn't any personal, valid information about his address in the file. Did James not request for these two vital information when the file was being prepared? Besides, the file gave off the impression of Hawk having a good office relationship with his colleagues and his boss... Why then was he detained? Why did a large load of criminal records spring up on him all of a sudden? Detective Tom looked at the file in his hand. The file has caused him to reason if those criminal records of Hawk that w

The room shivered from the freezing atmosphere. The sounds of fingers tapping the keyboard grew rapidly. The officers were even more pressured to give officer Joe a satisfactory answer. They didn't dare to sit straight which ended up causing their backs to be in a stiff position. Officer Joe's eyes reddened as he panted in anger. He felt like he had just ran a 200-meters race with the way he screamed just now. He managed to calm himself and walked round the room, from one seat to the other. The officers were sweating profusely given the intense pressure his presence cast on them. Just when he was on the third row, an officer suddenly shouted excitedly. His loud voice filled with relief,"Boss, I found it!" Before officer Joe could take a step forward to the subordinate that had just spoken, another officer called out,"Me too!" Then another and another... Till every officer in the room had spoken. They all seemed to have found the location at once. Officer Joe stopped in h

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
