"What are you scared of because I'm in so much confusion now and if you don't clear the fog soon, I'll just die due to it." Cora exclaimed, her voice high pitched.She's truly in a fog of confusion and if not for the looks on his face, she'd have started laughing thinking it was a joke. What the hell is he scared of? What's he so scared of that he chooses to forfeit his revenge? "The Pedros have become very influential and extremely powerful Cora, they have gone deep in wealth and power, they have so many allies and going against them is gonna be disastrous." He stated and Cora frown deepened."Aidan, that's not enough reason for you to forget your vengeance, you've taken down men more powerful than Mr. Pedro, you made them bite dust, they cowered in fear whenever they heard your name. Why are you afraid all of a sudden?" She asked, rubbing her temple to calm herself down, she didn't wish to burst now and complicate the whole situation.Aidan looked at her, a sad smile covering his
155Cora's eyes were still fixed or Aidan, her whole body warm, her heart beating calmly, hearing Aidan's words had made her emotional, even if she hasn't been pregnant with all those terrible mood swings and hormones on the high, she'd have still felt the emotions she's feeling now, though it might not be as high as this. "Aidan? Are you crazy!? How could you come to such a conclusion? Do you have any idea of what you're talking about?" Cora asked, surprise clouding her voice, she can't even think straight. Aidan smiled, his eyes fixed on Cora, "You know I never make hasty decisions, I've thought this through and I've come to the conclusion that it's the best for my family. You don't understand my dear honey, I don't fear going against them, I fear what would be the outcome. I have you and the kids to worry about. I'm not alone anymore. I have a family now and I don't want anything to happen to any of you. I'll never put any of you in harm's way." He answered, his voice call and co
Aidan was engrossed in his work as usual when his phone began to ring, he tapped the button and Joy's voice rang in the air. "Yes, Joy?" He replied, still scribbling on the pad on his table."Good afternoon sir." She greeted."Afternoon Joy, what's wrong?"He asked."Nothing sir." She replied quickly and hung up. Aidan cocked his eyebrow, shrugged and returned his complete focus on his work. He needs to finish the documenting about his new business plan soon, the business would have to kick off soon, there's no time to waste."Joy's here to see you, should I let her in." Eva announced and Aidan looked towards the door and saw her, standing and fidgeting with her fingers by the door.Why's she looking so nervous?"Let her in." He replied, dropping the pen he was holding. The door slid open and Joy entered, her eyes locking with Aidan's but she was quick to look away. Aidan creased his face, something is wrong with her secretary. Joy is a very confident woman with self composure and
Chapter 157.The fun time was going great and Chyna wished the day would not end but it was already eight P.M and they had to go home. Chyna's eyes were fixed on Aidan who was engrossed in a call, he was on mask because they're attending a birthday party requiring them to be on mask, it's all better, no one would recognize them. She wished to take the phone from him and smash it on the ground but that was not possible, she had no right to stop him from making calls. ‘You can create the chance, you know?’ A voice in her head suggested and she smiled. Aidan is a complicated being and seducing him might prove abortive, there are three things that could happen if she tries it; it's either he rejects her in the most formal way by maintaining the fact that she's like his sister or he'll take an offense in it and stop seeing her as a friend and a sister or... He falls and they have fun as long as it lasts. The possibility of the last option happening is a ten because he'd become so rese
Chapter 158.Aidan ran and the girls followed him fast, their heart beating furiously, "You guys have company." Eva announced from the watch and Aidan cussed. The moon was out, shining bright and combined with the little light from the few buildings around, their path was illuminated. They tore away the stupid mask they're wearing and ran fast. He doesn't regret breaking that ass hole face and he'll do it again if he has the chance, the temptation to do it again has become extremely high. He looked around and saw another building, he took a quick turn and rushed towards it and the girls didn't need to be told before they turned around and followed him. They're far from the city, the party was being held in a luxurious house, Aidan looked around and slid into a corner, urging the girls to come into the tight corner. The girls looked at each other, shrugged and squeezed themselves into the tight corner. Aidan's masculine scent filled their nodes, making them swoon. They both clung
Chapter 159.As they head back to the Karanos mansion, Aidan was focused on his pad, the girls on the back seat stared at him in some sort of amusement. Chyna was still surprised that he'd ran away from danger, Aidan ran away from it and it was because they were with him, she signed and relaxed her head on the car seat. "I can lodge into a hotel and spend the night, you know? I don't want to inconvenience anyone." Joy murmured to Chyna who just rolled her eyes."The Karanos Villa is so big that if you wish not to be noticed, you can hide in your room all day and no one would disturb you, also don't worry about the clothing, Cora has already got some of your sizes ready, she's an expert there too... Don't bother to ask how she does it, all I know is that she does it and does a very good job." She explained, waving Joy shut when she opened her mouth to interrupt her. "Don't worry Joy, I'll sort out all the mess soon and you'll be back to living your normal life, as for now, you need
Chapter 160.Things had been going well for the last few days and Aidan had been extremely busy with the business and doing some findings about Jordan and his family. It turns out that Jordan is an asshole, doing lots of shits every now and then, he'd being on Joy's neck for a month plus now. "Aidan?" A gentle female voice called and he turned around, a smile carved on his face."Evening sis, what's up?" He asked and Cora shrugged. "Are you alright sis? You look weird." He asked, standing up to welcome her to the office in his room. He'd been so busy of late that he rarely had time for anything, Cora had company, Chyna, Thalia, Joy and the rest of the family were there for her but nothing could be compared to his company. He'd missed her but whatever he's doing will surely make her happy and her happiness is his pleasure. "How are you doing Aidan, you look so tired. Have you eaten honey?" She asked as she sat down, her voice filled with love that made him smile. She's truly one
"Get the fuck out of here!!" A bulky man shouted at Jordan who was at the gate and creating drama. "Call Joy here, I know she's inside, just call her!" He shouted, his hoarse from all the shouting. Aidan watched the drama going on at his Empire's entrance through a large screen and clenched his fist, both Chyna and Joy were there, watching and anticipating, wondering what the boss would do next. Aidan knew he'd come to find Joy, he made sure Jordan knew the reason he was being destroyed and he'd let his family know why he was punishing Jordan... He never knew he'd be stupid enough to come and create a scene in front of his company. He likes the guts but he also despises it and he'll let him know how much he does today. He'd destroyed Jordan in a snappy way, his family should disinherit him, strip him off all riches or they're riches would be stripped from them. They'd quickly listened to Aidan and disinherited Jordan, to them it was better to disinherit the lousy lazy son than l
