"I'm sorry grandma," She mumbled in a sleepy tone and turned to face the wall. Her eyes flew open and her fingers distinctively searched the bed stealthily to find her phone. When she found it, she checked the message icon. Frustration displayed on her face when she saw that he hadn't read her message or replied to it. What could have kept him so busy since the previous day that he couldn't even make time to check his message and reply to her? Heaven looked at the message again and mentally cautioned herself when she read the words she had sent to him. It says,'I hate being lied to. Would it kill you to admit that you are with your mistress?' The more she read it again, the more she felt the message sounded childish so she attempted to delete it. Normally, the app would show two options, delete for yourself or delete for everyone. But it wasn't even displaying the latter. It only showed the option delete for yourself so even if she deletes the message, he would still be abl
The Billionaire's Trials 158: Valerie's Visit.
There are long lines of gibberish words or are those codes displayed on the screen. A large proportion of them are written in a bright shade of green font while some others are in red. The only thing I am able to understand is the word in between,"Successful." Q stretched his over stiff muscles as he sat up. He had just hacked the central satellite responsible for hiding all kinds of outdated info and downloaded some encrypted info from the server relating to Leo. Then he released the information on a kind of hidden web world, exclusive to hackers alone. Now he would sit back and wait for Hawk's men to get the encrypted data, decode it and present it to their boss so his next plan can progress. He stood up and went to have a shower because he was starting to stink like he hadn't bathed for days. Which is true, at least a few days. When he finished this, he sat in front of the screen watching Hawk and his men's activities. Boredom soon set in causing him to turn his atte
The Billionaire's Trials 159: Finding Out About Leo's Condition.
Q gave the screen a strange look when he saw the first scene that was displayed on the split videos on the screen. You know, he wouldn't just fix the cameras on one spot. So the split videos on the screen were the camera's footage from the hospital's reception, garage, hallways and so on. The one Q's eyes were fixed on was the one that showed Valerie stripping out of the nurse outfit that she dumped on the floor one after the other. Q whistled at her beauty after she had finished undressing. She was wearing a smoky short dress underneath the uniform which enunciated her curves. She picked up the nurse's outfit that she dumped and delivered the food first. She walked out of the ward within five minutes. Q could only imagine how the patient in that room must have been shocked by the hottie that came to deliver his food. Q watched Valerie till she disappeared off the screen before he turned back his focus to the last video in the split image of the screen. That's the came

"He was, at least that was what the doctor told us," Q continued. "But the murderer's next victim was going to be Leo and worse still, we didn't know the culprit. So we all hatched a plan." "We? Are you working with the cops and the detective?" Wave questioned with a confused look. Q nodded to indicate 'yes'. "We had the doctor sedate him with a heavy dose of tranquilizer to take him out for days." "Why!? That's dangerous to his health!" Heaven shrieked. She could still remember the time she had been injected with that back then at the hospital. Just a little dose and she felt like she was in a different world entirely. She couldn't even describe how her body felt at that moment so how is Leo handling it now? No wonder he looked so weak. Having to deal with tranquilizers in your body system for a couple of days is no small deal. "We needed a bait to lure the culprit out," It was Larson that answered this time. "What other better bait would there be if not the next victim hi
The Billionaire's Trials 161: The Identity Of The Man In The Mask.
As the medical team were rushing to push Leo's bed out, Heaven and the rest were coming in. She stopped at the doorway when she saw Leo's expression of pain and how he was turning even more pale. He also appeared to be struggling to breath because he was gasping. What happened to him!? She didn't get a chance to reach out to him as Q exclaimed,"Cyanide! He was poisoned with cyanide!?" The family stepped into the room. The man in the mask looked around and laughed. "What a great family reunion!" His eyes rested on Heaven who shook from the strong killing intent she felt from him. "You should have been next b*tch," He spat out. "But never mind, at least I managed to eliminate one of you. I bet that bastard won't last for long. He'll—" His words were interrupted as Wave suddenly walked forward when one least expected and gave the man in the mask a good punch in the face. His body vibrated with the anger he was feeling. "Grandfather!" Heaven and Joe called respectively. T

The room fell silent, well except for Heaven's cries, there was no other sound in the room as they all waited in anticipation of Miles' answer. The culprit however remained silent. But in a minute, he burst out in a loud, evil cackle. "Why should I answer you? None of you have the right to ask me that, including the boy himself. Since James was willing to take the secret of that boy's background to his grave, why should I be the one to say it?" Everyone exchanged a look of confusion. Heaven on the other hand was lost. She hugged her knees, tears cascading down like rain as she thought... Thought of everything. Wave's brows furrowed. He thought back to the day he had told Miles not to touch the boy cause no one knew his background and James wouldn't just choose anyone as his heir. How didn't he notice that Miles seemed to be hiding something? He sneered coldly. His powerful aura filled the room as he stated,"James took it to his grave. You will do the same! It doesn't ma
The Billionaire's Trials 163: Q's Real Name.⊙.☉
Wave's squinted eyes glanced round the room and when he noticed that no one was paying attention to them, he covered the little distance between him and Q. "Do you have any info about it?" He whispered. Q displayed his signature smile and nodded. "Actually grandfather... Every information about Leo's background that Mr Miles and Hawk knows is from me. I released every single info I found about him to them and they fell right into my trap." Wave paused as he thought of something. He seemed to have realized that Q called him grandfather. "What did you say?" "Huh?" Q was puzzled. "What was your first word?" Wave asked again. "Actually...?" "No. The one after that." "Grand..." Q paused and his eyes collided with Wave piercing eyes. He raised his fingers and placed them on his lips like he wanted to stop himself or swallow his words. "Complete your statement," Wave demanded. Q suddenly felt his head was itchy. He was suddenly so nervous. "It was a slip of tongue,

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

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
