The Blind Consortium's Heir 52
"Cora...hope you have made all the preparations for the party, I don't want anything lacking." Aidan asked Cora who was busy stuffing food in her mouth."It's next tomorrow, there's still time...I still don't like the idea of going to that man's birthday party, I never liked him.....he's just too uhmmmm, to annoying and pompous." Cora said between mouthfuls.Aidan raised his head from the mini phone in his hands to look at the girl. "Stop stuffing your mouth with food like that, I told you to behave when you're eating...you could choke." He said, zeroing his eyes on her. Cora looked up with a confused expression still munching the hot tacos in her mouth.Yeah he'd been warning her to stop stuffing food in her mouth but she can't help it, she has zero table manners when it comes to eating at home. "Boss, I've never choked on food before...so stop worrying and we were talking about your vice president's birthday party and not my eating habits, besides I eat decently outside....let me
The Blind Consortium's Heir 53
Cora eyes were darting everywhere searching for nothing in particular, she doesn't wish to come to this silly party but she didn't have a choice;wherever the boss goes, she follows. She zeroed her look on Mr. Felix who was grinning from ear to ear like a little girl on Christmas morning opening the presents that surrounded the Christmas tree."Ma'am, what would you like to have?" A voice interrupted her and she looked towards the direction. A young woman was standing few feets from where she's sitting with a broad smile. "A glass of water would do." She answered.The woman was surprised but she left to carry out her orders.Yeah....she should be surprised, when Aidan had said zero alcohol for her at the party, she was more than surprised.This is the first party she'll be going to ever since the death of her father and Mr. Kal and the new big grumpy boss had enforced the law of zero alcohol at the party...like seriously, where's the fun? There are exotic costly alcohol here that wo

Aidan's eyes pried open to darkness but due to the night vision he'd worn in his lenses before the darkness engulfed everywhere, he could see clearly.. Cora was binded by a rope not too far away from him. Talking of binding, he was binded by heavy chains... Oh well, that's wow. He remembered everything that happened; when darkness suddenly engulfed the party hall, a gas was released into the air making everyone pass out including him and Cora and now they're in the middle of nowhere with no one except him and Cora. He heard Cora struggles and he knew she's awake, she was clearly angry and everything was evident from her constant struggles when she was fully aware of her condition. "Cora darling, stop struggling okay?" He called out to her. "Oh God, thank goodness you're alright...and what's up with this shits? Whoever did this would get trashed by me for sure..I'm so angry right now!" She said angrily, still struggling.Aidan let out a soft chuckle as she rant on angrily. Cora r

Cora raised her head staring at the men, the second man in red suit seemed stunned by everything considering the way he stood but he immediately shook everything off and backed away from Aidan. Aidan's facial expression has this glint of sarcasm that Cora couldn't miss, she still can't figure out what was going on because both men remain quiet. She can't bear the suspense and yet she can't do anything, she wishes to know what's wrong and why's Aidan calling their captors Mr. Felix and which Mr. Felix? Is it that no good vice president? Everywhere was silent for a good one minute and when Cora couldn't bear it again, she let out a grunt looking at Aidan who gave him a reassuring smile. Sorry dude, that smile ain't going to work unless you fucking tell me what's going on! Her voice rang in her head and she gave him a snort of annoyance, what's the use of all these suspense anyway? For Pete's sake, this is not a movie! They're dealing with reality here... If they don't put an end t
The Blind Consortium's Heir 56
Aidan's mind went blank for a moment when he heard the name, his world seemed to have come to a standstill and he couldn't think of anything. That name!Again!? There's always one famous Pedro Lucas and that's definitely his ex father in-law, his late parent's friend and murderer.....they made him an orphan, try to kill him may times, made him blind and now they're responsible for his grandfather's death, killing Jonas;the man who'd seeing to his well-being all these years! He'd eaten him deep, the Pedros stepping on a wounded lion's tail and they're literally stepping on his face and inflicting more pain in his injury. What the fuck is wrong with that family? Why are they so hungry for power and wealth to the extent that they're willing to do everything possible to keep their forcefully acquired wealth to themselves even if it means killing a whole family member and making them extinct. He hadn't forgiven them for what they did to his parents, for what they did to him and now th

The whole room was silent for a moment, a painful grunt was heard but no one knew where the sound was coming from. Chains rattling could be heard and everyone stayed still in the dark room unwilling to move for fear of being a prey to whoever the hunter was. Cora could see clearly due to the night vision she was wearing, she heard gun shot immediately that dumb fuck vice president reached for his gun. 'Who did he fire the shot at?'Many possible answers shoot up in her head but she refused to acknowledge the one that has the highest level of happening. ‘Is Aiden shot!?’ She turned the answer to a question in her head. She wanted to scream due to her blocked view, she can't see clearly due to the heavily built men blocking her ways. None were moving and it frustrated her, who hired these cowards to become security guards? She knew she's supposed to be quiet but she can't be, Aidan could possibly be bleeding to death or worse! "Boss?" She muttered his name but no response came e

"I'm not your mother dude, grow up!" Cora shouted in frustration waving her hands up in the air.Aidan would never get tired of teasing her, there's this frustrated face she makes that makes her cheeks plumpy to touch. "I can't grow up when you're around,mommy." He said with a wink. Cora gave up, "just tell me the whole thing already, don't try to deviate from the topic, you're telling me everything now. We still have almost thirty minutes to drive home. I don't know why you insisted on road driving, we could have been home now if we used the jet. You're just zero fun but I'll use the slow drive home to my advantage. Start talking Mr." She commanded with a serious face and it only earned her a smug. "When I announced it in the organization that there was a betrayer in our midst, I posted a different trusted security agent on all the members to know of their every movement. For like two weeks, it was like nothing was happening, all members went about their business without any suspi

"Welcome, boss." Eva greeted as usual."Hope you had fun?" It asked when Aidan didn't reply to its greetings."Mmmmm." He muttered and began to strip his cloth, humming some unknown tone to himself. "Do you wish to eat anything?" It asked Aidan and he gave a loud grunt. Talk of an annoying or persistent bot, talk of Eva. "I'm fine Eva." He replied to keep the bot off his back. "Negative, you're injured and you need medical treatment. Would you want me to call one of the bot doctors or Cora?" "None for now Eva, I'll take care of myself. You don't have to worry about some little injury I sustained." He said in a grumpy voice but Eva wasn't done with him. "Bot doctor or Cora? Choose one boss, you need to treat it before the infection spreads. Besides, your hands can't possibly reach your back to administer treatment to yourself." "I said no Eva! I'll take care of myself. Shut down." He ordered."I'm sorry, I'll have to delay your order for your own good, I'm calling Cora. She will

EPILOGUE. *Thwack! Thwack!! Thwack!!!*"Ahhhhh! Ahhhhh!! Ahhhhh!!!" Mr. Pedro screamed in misery as they thrashed him mercilessly in jail.“Enough!" Aidan ordered and all the hitting stopped abruptly. He stood up and steered towards Mr. Pedro who was sagging in chains, his body red, blood dripping from the opened wound on his body. "You... What have I done again? Isn't sending me to jail enough for you?" Mr. Pedro asked weakly and Aidan let out a soft laugh.This man had no idea what he had in store for him, why the hell does he think he pleaded with three judges not to sentence him to death by hanging?He's gonna suffer so much till he chooses to perish miserably. "You don't seem to learn, do you, Mr. Pedro?" He asked and the man looked at him weakly, sweat entering into his eyes, yet he could not wipe it away because of the position he was in. "What have I done?" He asked again, staring at Aidan with disdain."Chyna... You think you can blackmail Chyna into doing what you want,

Chapter 220One month later. "Where is it, God? Where the hell is it?!" A female voice cried angrily as she searched vigorously with the aid of a touch light.If she doesn't get what Mr. Pedro wants, he's gonna get her arrested, she has to get everything that he wants, anything at all. God!How did she get herself involved in this mess in the first place? Everything was finally going great for the first time in her life and now, that useless man wants to ruin everything for her!"God!" She said in exhaustion and suddenly the light came on. Her heart began to beat violently as the office light of Aidan's office came on.She was frozen in one place, her heart almost running out of beat and her brain reeling in different directions as she tried to figure out what was going on... No one was supposed to be at the office now, it was the middle of the night. Who could have come to the office at such an odd hour? "Are you looking for anything I might help with?

Chapter 219."What the hell are you talking about Aidan? You think you can just appear and disappear as you wish, who the hell do you think you are?!" Mr. Pedro asked angrily, his face contorted with anger. "I am Aidan Karanos, the only surviving son of the late Mr and Mrs Luke whom you killed, the only grandson of late Mr. Kal Karanos whom you had a hand in his death, and the heir of the Karanos Consortium," Aidan said loudly and gasps could be heard from different directions. The cameramen immediately focused the cameras on him and many more people brought out their phones to start filming. "Wh... What?!" Mr. Pedros said in shock but suddenly burst out laughing to the shock of everyone present."Has he ran mad ?" Someone in the crowd asked. "You are the biggest clown in the world, Aidan. You think you can come back from the dead to make some tall claims, you..." He paused and laughed again. "The heir to the Karanos empire is Ares and not Aidan, you can not be the heir, you are

Chapter 218."How do you feel about the death of your daughter, Mrs. Pedro?" One of the journalists asked Mr. Pedro who was in all black.Today was the burial of Chyna Pedro who was assassinated a week ago by some group of men. No one knows about the man."It was a very tragic loss indeed, she was finally finding her footings in this world and...oh God!" Mrs. Pedro paused to wipe the tears that were streaming down her face. "She was finally getting the best of what she was meant for when those evil men decided to kill her, I don't know what happened because as you all know, I was arrested a few weeks ago base on some wrong information, I pray that her soul will rest in perfect peace" she said with a sob and Arissa held her mother to console her. "Is it true that you guys never get along well with the deceased?" Another asked."Chyna was a drug addict and mentally imbalanced and that's nothing new, because we tried to help her overcome her addiction, we became her enemies and you can

Chapter 217.THREE MONTHS LATER. "You can not arrest me, take your hands off me, you idiots!!!" Mrs. Pedro screeched, as the policemen held her and were leading her away."What's all these Chyna?" Mr. Pedro asked, anger visible on his face."I'm arresting your wife for fraud and I have evidence of everything, if you want to see for yourself, you can meet us in court, Mr. Pedro," Chyna said calmly and this only seemed to flare him up. "Are you insane, do you realize what you're doing?! That's your mother that you're arresting!" He huffed.Chyna frowned and turned to face him squarely, "I do realize what I am doing but did you realize the rubbish you just spat out of your mouth?! The last time I remember, you two killed my parents and took away everything they left for me and as long as I am alive, I shall make you pay dearly for that, don't ever make the mistake of calling her my mother. I am not related to any of you and I never will." She muttered and turned to leave but Mr. Pedro

Chapter 216."What?!" Mr. Pedro exclaimed, his eyes almost popping out of their socket.Chyna looked at Mr. Pedro, wondering what could have shocked the man to such an extent that he exclaimed so much in the middle of a meeting.Things had been tense ever since she came here and the necessary signatures and agreements were being carried out by both teams. Mrs. Pedro had been giving her a crazy stare, she looked so shocked and up till now, she was still looking lost and shocked. She kinda loves the reactions she got upon coming here, it was worth everything and yet she fears for the aftermath of everything, she's scared of what rye Pedro's would do after they get the shares. Mr. Pedro's phone had been ringing repeatedly and when he finally decided to pick up, he'd let out a shout. She can't help but wonder what could have shocked him so much to the extent that he was looking very disorganized. Mrs. Pedro immediately stood up and headed towards the husband who was speaking discreetl

Mrs. Pedro's hands began to shake lightly, heart hammering against her ribcage as she saw who just stepped out of the car, a low shaky murmur escaped her mouth, "Chyna?" When Mr. Pedro heard his wife mention the name, he began to accept reality. He wasn't hallucinating.That's Chyna...But how? She was supposed to be in the rehab center or did the woman just look like Chyna? There's only one way to find out and with that, he began to head down to meet her. Chyna's blank face scanned the environment and saw the large crowd which mostly consisted of media personnels. A low sigh escaped her mouth, well, she has to do this. She and Aidan had both traveled down here but as planned, he'd go somewhere else and she'll be here to sign the deal with Mr. Pedro. She had no idea why Aidan wished to go into partnership with Mr. Pedro and she would have stopped it if she had any power to but there was nothing she could do about it. It's his money, his company and he gets to take any decision r

TWO WEEKS LATER. "Mr. Pedro, how do you feel about getting in partnership with the new empire that had taken the business world by storm?" A journalist asked Mr. Pedro who was all smiles."I feel delighted of course, to partner with such a profitable business would deliberately uplift my own empire to first. You all know how my empire is eyeing the top and I'm pretty sure that this time, with the partnership of the new empire, my empire will finally see the top." Mr. Pedro replied proudly, his eyes going towards his wife who was surrounded by another group of journalists. This is what he wanted, he knew that signing a partnership contract with the new company would bring a lot of fame for him and his family, this is what he'd wanted. "Mr. Pedro, what do you have to say about those influential businessmen who withdrew their shares from your empire a few months ago? Do you have any message for them?" Another journalist asked. "Of course I do, I always have messages for those who thi

."You think you can threaten me, you rascals!!!" He boomed laughing like a maniac. Aidan's arm went around Cora's waist and he murmured,"Press the button." The woman who seems to be in daze immediately pressed the bottom and in less than a nanosecond, Drake was surrounded by drones. Drake looked around and laugh hysterically,"Do you think this will stop me?" He asked and laughed again."It's like you have forgotten how this gun works but don't worry, I'll demonstrate." He said."Press it again Cora." Aidan ordered, his eyes fixed on Drake who seemed so sure of himself. Cora immediately pressed the button again and the drones surrounding Drake got into action, they immediately began to web some sort of material around Drake. They webbed it so fast that it was almost unnoticeable to Drake. Before anyone knew what was happening, Drake was in a huge balloon-like ball, the only difference was that he wasn't floating, he was still standing still on the ground. Upon seeing what had j
