The Blind Consortium's Heir 64
Aidan stepped into the showroom, immediately all the members saw him stepped into the large hall, they all stood up as a sign of respect and Aidan didn't think twice before waving them to sit. He walked towards his seat still wondering why the big grand hall was called a showroom, they could have found a better name for it. It's like another meeting place for all the organization members in the mansion and the name given to it doesn't quite suit it but he doesn't give a darn about anything at this particular point in time. He sat down with a stone face and Cora came to stand beside him. Aidan turned to look at the woman standing beside him, "find somewhere and sit, Cora." His voice cut into the dead silent hall. Cora wants to stay close to him and she wouldn't settle for a far distant seat so she took the seat of the vice president next to him. She didn't know why those guards didn't think it wise to bring a seat for her. She'll have their heads later. "Good day to you all, I've
The Blind Consortium's Heir 65
There was silence in the room except for the constant pain whines that emitted from Mr. Felix's mouth and everyone waited to hear what the big boss would say next but the quietness was now being prolonged. The big blow delivered to Mr. Felix's face had left him with a bleeding nose. "I share no blood relationship with you and I never will!"Mr. Felix growled at Aidan whose smile only broadened with every word uttered. "Oh really? Then do you care to explain why my grandfather didn't take any action towards you when he learnt of your attempt on his life? You can deny all you want but I'll not kill anyone that has the Karanos blood and that's it. You can deny all you want but that does not change the fact that you killed your own father for power and that guilt would burn you forever, uncle Felix." Aidan's voice was laced with anger as he said those words out. It felt good to finally say it to his face, this same issue had been bothering him for days, even before the kidnapping. Whe

EIGHT MONTHS LATER. "Hey boss, the reports are here." Cora announced as soon as she stepped into Aidan's office. "Is this a strong lead this time around? I don't want to be chasing the air again, Cora. I need to find that brute at all cost and not being able to is giving me a reason to add up to his crimes, the earlier he makes himself available, the better for him because sooner or later, I'm gonna find him and make him pay for his crime." Aidan said, standing up from his desk and heading towards Cora who stood across his desk. "Don't you think you're taking this too hard on yourself? You need to relax and we'll handle everything soon, he'll be caught soon, stop worrying." Cora lamented, handing over the documents she's holding to Aidan.Aidan shrugged, going through the documents she gave him. Aidan had been on the trail of a drug and human trafficker for the past three months and the man is proving hard to get, unknown to this man, running away would only give Aidan the joy of

The girl on stage seems to be the center of attention as there were many who wanted her, the bidding on her ownership continues for almost thirty minutes when finally no one could dego higher than Cora. The whole atmosphere was tense and the girl was all smiles enjoying the attention she was probably getting and Cora cussed under her breath as the man announced that she won and immediately the girl was sent to the other room to be prepared. Cora stood up and Aidan followed her to see the girl. "This way ma'am." A young looking lady directed them to the backstage room where the new girl is. As they entered the room, everyone left except for the girl they came to see. She gave a quick smile and the light reflected on her perfectly arranged sparkling teeth.. Cora scoffed in her head when she saw her. "You made a mistake buying me, hope you know that? I'll escape when I get the chance." The girl said with a smirk looking at Cora and Aidan who were still in masks then moving closer t

"All done, go get Mario, we need to leave." Cora announced to Aidan.Aidan took a bow and went out to fetch Marcos, they'd all given each other a fake identity before entering the hell hole and that would be their identity till they got out of here. "How about an exchange of contact, my love?" Jett asked and Cora gave a scoff."You'll do yourself good by staying away from me, Mr. Jett. You wouldn't want to die the most miserable death in the hands of my husband." Cora said with a smile that doesn't qualify to be called a smile."Woah, who's the lucky man?" He asked, going closer to her. Cora prayed in her head, if Aidan doesn't get them out of here soon...there'll be trouble, she's certain about it. She's already very angry and any little trigger now would make her explode. "I'm with my third husband, I killed the first two." She said with a smirk. The reply got Jett to halt but he continued advancing towards her when he saw the smirk Cora gave him. "Stand back, don't make me use
The Blind Consortium's Heir 69
Cora's mouth hung open as Aidan revealed the identity of the girl they just bought from Jett. How's this possible? How can a Pedro's blood be here and at a dangerous place waiting to be sold? The business is her father's own, how did she end up here? Her confusion brought loads of questions in her head and her head might explode due to what's happening right now. . Aidan wasn't helping her confusion and it's getting her angry. She doesn't know what sort of man derives pleasure in keeping someone in suspense. Cora took her pad and viewed the CCTV camera in the car that holds the new girl and the guards. Chyna was sleeping peacefully on Marcos shoulder, that's what she gets for disobeying her, the gas still has effects on her though not fully. She can wake up when she wants to. "She was my best friend back at the Pedros." Aidan muttered, looking at the footage displayed in the pad Cora is holding."What's she doing here in the first place?" Cora asked one of the questions that's d
The Blind Consortium's Heir 70
The whole room was quiet except for the sound of Cora's advancing footsteps. Chyna tilted her head towards Aidan then back to the advancing Cora hoping that what she heard was wrong. "Do you seriously have to do that now, Cora?" Aidan asks, shaking his head.Cora rolled her eyes and halted in front of Chyna who seemed to have frozen hard. "Hey...learn to keep your mouth shut." She said with a frown to Chyna whose mouth was slightly opened. "Shall we sit down?" Aidan suggested. "Nope, I'm starving. I don't know about her but I can't talk sensibly on an empty stomach. Feel free to join me." Cora declined, heading towards the dining area with a smile on her face.She loves the way she got Chyna in a tight, shocked spot. The shock was beyond what she could be feeling right now, at least her facial expression said so and she's not sorry a bit. Chyna watched as Cora left, turning towards Aidan with a fake smile plastered on her face, she ask" can you help me escape here? I know you're

Chyna stuffed the spicy tacos in her mouth savoring the flavor. "Darn! He makes them good." She muttered with mouth full, heading out of the kitchen after spending like twenty minutes thinking about things she's not supposed to think about, thinking of any slight probability that might led to her identity being exposedAfter what seems like forever, she gave a little disappointed sigh when she didn't make headway with the puzzles in her head. She'd choose not to worry over how those people get to know her identity, worrying over what's already there wouldn't solve her problems or make them forget what they already know. So why bother herself with worries when she can enjoy her time here? It's such a cool mansion and right now, all she can think of is how to make sure she stays here. She has no idea who these people are or how they got to know so much about her but if they don't cause any harm to her in any way, she will enjoy staying here till she gets bored of everything which is
