The Blind Consortium's Heir 125
The search for Jett was becoming fruitless, they shouldn't have named it doom room, they should have named it doom mansion because the supposed room is too large to be called a room. In the quest for Jett, she observed that all the people that are being used for their experiment are no longer present and she made the quick calculation that it must have been Aidan's work because those people were present in the room till Eva hacked their system. Knowing that they're safe reduced her fear drastically, Thanos might get desperate and threaten them to surrender and that would surely make them face their doom. She heard a light movement by her left and began to walk silently towards it, her heart beating in anxiousness. She doesn't know whether to tag it stupidity or just being brave, she's looking for a man, a man that betrayed her and she's not with any form of protection, her weapons have been stripped from her when she was shackled by those maniacs and she needs it badly now. She h

"Move out nice and quiet, if you try anything funny, I'll blow off your small brain." Thanos threatened, motioning Cora to move but the stubborn woman refused to move. She needs to think of a way to get out of Thanos' grasp but no idea is forthcoming and she hates it, having her brain forsake her like this is something that's painful to her. "Move!" He ordered, pushing her forward.She began to move towards the bathroom door exit, turning back slightly to look at Ms. Black dead body in the bathtub and she came to the conclusion that Thanos is a vile man who'd do anything to protect himself. She has no idea why he decided to end Ms. Black in such a horrible way but she doesn't deserve such a death... It was too easy. "I have no idea what's going on in your head but know this, if you try anything funny, I promise you, I'll end your life." He warned, pushing the gun he's holding on to Cora's back, urging her to move forward. "If you kill me, you should know there's no way you're gett

Aidan's mind immediately wrapped around the situation at hand, he shot Thanos a deadly glare but the man gave him an evil knowing smirk of... Gotcha! "You son of a...." Aidan cussed and began to rush towards Cora who was crying her eyes out. Everything happened so fast yet so slow."Sorry... But I'm the master of this game." Thanos said out loudly, pressing a button on his watch... He ordered, "Fire!" His gun immediately fired bullets towards Cora who just looked perplexed at the whole scenario that's happening. "Activate bombs." Thanos ordered and a loud alarm began to blare loudly. He hit the elevator buttons and the machine shot up. "Bombs activated." Ella's voice announced.Cora looked towards Aidan hurrying towards her and she began to nod her head vigorously, "No! Go away!!" She shouted, struggling to free herself.One of the bots stood by Aidan to block the bullets but something terrifying happened, the bullets took another direction and headed straight towards Cora."No!

Cora awoke with a stinging headache, her whole body seemed to be throbbing in pain, the realization of what happened hit her. She sprang up from her bed but immediately stayed down when dizziness welcomed her out of unconsciousness. She felt a hand hold her down, "Calm down." The male voice said calmly."Aidan?" She called but her voice only came as a whisper."Yes darling, I'm here for you. I'm right here." He answered, tucking her loose strands of hair behind her ear. She took a deep breath to relax herself, the scenario of what happened before she passed out playing vividly in her head and her heart aches to such an extent that it seems like there's a huge lump stuck in her chest. She blinked back her tears, took a deep breath and tried to calm her aching inside down. "Jett's dead, isn't he?" She asked, hoping that everything was a nightmare she'd just woken up from. "I'm sorry Cora." Aidan murmured, patting her hair. "Don't be sorry, you tried your best. What of Thanos? Hop
The Blind Consortium's Heir 129
Chapter 129.ONE MONTH LATER. Cora paced restlessly in her room, she couldn't believe what's happening or how it's happening to her. She's happy but at the same time, she's confused, everything seems to have turned upside down in her life, her life has been turned inside out. Everything that happened was a mistake but it brings forth something she's happy yet undecided about. How will she tell Aidan? She's supposed to be there for him, always. How did she allow herself to be distracted? It's been a month since Jett died, she always makes frequent visits to the family, they mourn him and try to adjust to their new life. She's happy about one thing though, they can now live a normal free life. Jett's death had not gone in vain. They are set for life, he'd left them billions of naira that would see them through for generations. Monalisa and Thalia are working in one of the Karanos branches and life's settled for them. Thanos got what he deserves, total humiliation... Everything
The Blind Consortium's Heir 130
Meeting with company partners is taking a great toll on Aidan, he missed Cora but she's heavily pregnant now, she's in her fifth month and she still looks beautiful and in shape despite having twins growing in her belly. She finds it hard to adjust to her new life at first but Jett's family came to her rescue, she spends most of her time there now and as long as she's happy, Aidan is happy. It had been hard for him to not have her around but he's adjusting too, the empire misses her, she'd insisted on coming to work and it had taken him forever to convince her to work from home, Marcos had taken her position as head of Karanos security branch, she kept reminding him and Marcos that it was temporarily and once she give birth, she's taking her position back.Aidan had told her it won't be needed and she'd cried a river till he told her he was joking. Her pregnancy turned her into a crying shit, tears are never lacking in her eyes and she uses them to get what she wants. Aidan tapped

The flight was going smoothly, Aidan was busy with his laptop throughout the entire flight, before they boarded, he'd assured Chyna that everything would be well and she'd tried to take everything in good faith, things will go well with the deal, things would go well with her. She would do everything great, give it her best and things would be okay. She'll treat this like every business deal she'd been involved in, she always gives it her best shot. She relaxed her head on her seat, trying to recall sweet memories of success but every time she closed her eyes, all she sees and hear are her parents bitterness and cruelty towards her most of the little time she stayed with them, she flung her eyes opened, grabbed her pad and began to scroll through the whole contract again. She's done that now for countless times and she doesn't seem to get tired of it. She began to go through everything again, that's the only thing she can do, Aidan doesn't like any form of disturbance once he's eng

The company was huge but compared to the Karanos's, it was nothing but they needed to collaborate with them to achieve this month's goal and that's exactly why they're here. Aidan operates anonymously in most big projects, instead of using his name, he uses his grandfather's name and therefore, in the business world, his grandfather still lives despite being dead. Most people considered it sheer stupidity but they'll never dare say it out loud, Ares doesn't take trash from any one, if anyone says trashy things about him, the person's generation becomes trash itself. Many called him a friend to all but a friend to none, you can't take the advantage of being close to him for selfish gain, anyone who tries it has everything on the line to lose. He has few principles but he stands most with the one that goes thus... If they stand behind him, they'll gain protection. If they stand beside him, they'll gain respect.... But.. If they stand against him... He'll show no mercy
