"Hope he's not dead?" Aidan asked immediately as the two girls stepped into the house murmuring and giggling to themselves."Nope, though it was very disappointing. I was looking forward to slowly watching him die, he deserves to die." Cora drawled heading towards the ball chair beside Aidan. "We can't kill him Cora, that's not what we're meant to do. The guy has a family to care for and that alone is enough reason to keep him alive." Aidan muttered, still tapping on the device he's holding."Yeah yeah, good Samaritan." Cora muttered.Chyna watched the two displays of drama as usual, gave a long sigh and headed towards the kitchen. It's in their routine to always pull each other's hair early in the morning and that's exactly what they're doing. That has become a daily dose for them and she knew this despite spending less than a week with them. He ordered what she wanted and as the bot busy themselves with her task, she took a seat on a stool and Fernando's scream echoed in her ears.
"You're only leading me to my death." Fernando muttered as Cora dragged him from the Karanos mansion hospital. "That would be the easiest death for you then because left for me, I'll give you a slow pain filled death. If we go there and you're lucky to have a bullet or bullets shot into you, it would be great but if you're not lucky enough, your death would be on me and I promise to make it extra cruel and spicy for you." She drawled shoving him inside the mansion. They've relocated from the family quarter of the mansion because Fernando would be with them till the mission tomorrow, according to the boss...the stupid model needs to be taken care of. The wounds inflicted on him by Cora and Chyna have already been treated by the bot doctors and he was in good shape as before except for the big 'C' Cora carved on his chest. "I don't understand why you people are being kind and cruel to me at the same time, one time I'm being carved like a wood and the other time I'll be receiving trea
The quietness in the big van was beginning to bore Cora out of her mind. They've been driving on a secret route to the devil's house for the past two hours and she hates it. The five of them;her, Aidan, Chyna, Marcos and Fernando are compacted in a vehicle and she hates it the most, especially whenever her eyes locked with Fernando who's hell bent on flirting with her. She looked at him again and saw his eyes on her, she raised her two middle fingers towards him and a chuckle erupted from Chyna. "Cora, ignore him. He's never gonna stop staring." Chyna said, trying to calm the angry looking girl. Fernando admires Cora and that's quite evident from the way his eyes are pinned on her since the beginning of the journey but Cora didn't appreciate Fernando staring at her like that. "Boss, tell that brute to stop staring at me or I'll gouge his eyes out." Cora called her big bro to come to her rescue before she lost it. Aidan's head was relaxed on his lap, he had a lot on his mind and
Aidan's eyes pried opened slowly in the dimly lit room, he listened carefully but couldn't hear anything except for the slow breathing of someone. The night vision lens he's wearing enables him to see everything clearly, he gives a little cough to announce to their captives that he's awake. How they end up being here is very simple yet very complicated; immediately they four of them had entered into the devil's house disguised as those in charge of the meeting's refreshment, they've all passed out due to some gas in the room and now to cut the unwanted story short...they're all chained to the wall except for Marco;he's standing guard far from the apartment. How cute. The chains at the other side of the wall began to rattle and Aidan knew the fire queen was awake, she's definitely angry due to the state she's in. Cora doesn't love being chain or bound by anything. "Stop the rattling, you're deafening my ears." Fernando said hoarsely."You bloody asshole, fuck you!" She cussed stif
The man standing guard at the door has eyes on Cora who'd continued her swinging, though she might not notice it, the way her waist moves seductively is giving the lustful man the wrong ideas. Ideas that could get him killed instantly. The man checked the boss who was still busy with phone calls and he made his way to Cora. Cora is in an unknown pain and she had no idea why but something in her is deeply hurt, not knowing why she's in pain is causing her anger and more anger... to quench the unknown pain, she decided to occupy her body with something, so with her eyes shut, she swings her body in different momentum. "If I were you, I wouldn't do that." Chyna cautioned the bodyguard whose hands were set to touch Cora's body. "Shut your mouth, slut!" The man muttered angrily.Aidan watched the man in anger,"you'll be signing your death if you do that. Trust me." He also warned him but the man ignored all warnings and grabbed her bouncy boobs with his two greedy hands. Cora was cool
"Get him treated immediately." Aidan ordered one of the men that were beginning to pour into the room like an endless flow of water a few minutes after Jett fell to the floor due to the injection administered to him. It turns out the big man was Marcos. Aidan is indeed a master planner, he uses his brain instead of involving in fights or gunfire that might result in death. Fernando is a bloody mess, he'd pass out due to excessive blood loss. Poor Fernando, Jett's gun drills a good hole on his thigh, if he's not lucky... he might not be able to walk again. Aidan was already freed from the chains and while Marcos was unchaining Cora, he'd went towards Chyna to help her. Chyna was quiet as she was getting released from the chains, she had so many questions to ask but right now, she's too baffled to even mutter a word. Immediately she was freed from the chains, she felt her legs failing to hold her weight but strong hands grabbed her by the waist firmly, she looked up and saw the wor
"Cora!" Chyna called loudly with excitement."Cora! Get your sweet ass down here! Fernando is here to see you." She announced loudly with a chuckle when Fernando gave her a sneer. "If anything happens to me, you'll be responsible for my death." He muttered, grabbing a wine from the cellar and two wine glasses. "Don't worry, she won't hurt you. She'd been moody for weeks." She explained, accepting the glass of wine he offered. "The more reason I should stay away from her, I'm just recovering from a gunshot and once I have the boss's permission to leave. I'm taking my butt back to Italy where my family waits. I'll give my career a clean fresh start there." He muttered, sipping the wine. "That would be great, I never knew you have a family though but it's cool.""No one is aware that I have, it's a family secret and it baffles me how Eva finds out but it's cool, you know the close to death experience I have with death makes me remember them. I've missed them, I was so absorbed in mak
"Good morning everyone."Aidan's gentle voice got two heads turning towards him. "Hey bro. Great morning." Cora muttered with mouth full of food. "Good morning boss."Chyna said with a shy smile when hers and his eyes locked.Aidan returned the smile, "stop talking with a mouth full Cora, how many times have I warned you not to do that." He complained, moving towards the table."Sorry. It won't happen again." She said with a smirk and they all knew it would definitely happen again and again. It's a habit she'd grown into. Leaving it is proving difficult for her. "Hmmmm. I'm looking forward to the day you'll keep to your promise." He said with a chuckle."Me too bro. Me too." She said idly, reaching out to take a glass of milk.Chyna chuckles, she's happy Cora is back to her teasing annoying self, that's who Cora is and any other Cora is not acceptable to her. "Where's the model?" He asked, his eyes searching the environment. "He's outside, exploring the mansion. I've told him if he
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? " A familiar masculine voice
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
