The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Your Mother Is Coming For You
Aster slammed her leg down on the brakes just in time. She got out of the car anxiously only to realize she didn't run into the child. A man had his back to the car and from how close he was to the car, she had every reason to believe he was the one who was hit. "I'm really sorry. I swear I didn't see him." Aster babbled worriedly. Halsey peeked outside the window only to find the side profile of the man familiar. "Adair?" She called out and the man turned to look at her. "He's the one who introduced himself to be your friend yesterday. I think Jordan called Kendall." "Is that so?" Adair pretended to be surprised as he took a closer look at Kendall. "You're right. I didn't even find him familiar. Halsey has gotten a lot better." Halsey giggled and covered her eyes with her hands. Adair's smile faded when he returned his attention back to the scene. His eyes settled on the little boy of about 8 years old. From the way he clung onto Kendall, one would know he was frightened out o
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Your Husband Is Gay
The list of people waiting outside the office was quite long. Collette pushed her head out and viewed the people that waited in line before her."Number 27!" The office assistant called out.A lady sprung up. She adjusted her skirt and walked in. Almost immediately, number 26 cried her way out.Everyone began murmuring. The rumors turned out to be true. The company was indeed strict about their employees. They didn't just pick someone who is inexperienced. No one knew who was conducting the interview, but they speculated he or she was brutal in judging as more people failed.Collette's eyes followed each applicant as they walked into the elevator. "I wonder who the interviewer is." She mumbled to herself."I heard she's very strict." Someone whispered into her left ear. She almost shrieked when she realized he was standing directly behind her. He had nerdy glasses on. He had sprinkles at the edge of his mouth. The type one got after finishing a box of donuts. "I see." Was Collette
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley We're Swindling My Sister-in-law, Layla Pitt
It took Collette a whole minute to process Evelyn's words. Then she laughed, "What?"Evelyn saw the disbelief on her face and frowned. "You think I'm joking? Well, guess what, the media won't find it difficult to believe when I tell them?" "Adair isn't gay." Collette scoffed, "I know you hate us, but you shouldn't come up with such claims. It's really demeaning of the Pitt's." "Claims?" Evelyn hissed, "Do you really think yourselves that important? Why would I make up claims regarding someone like him in the first place?" "I don't know. Maybe it's because you've not gotten any movie role in the past few months or you're just choosing to bully me like you've always wanted." Collette tutted and stepped closer to Evelyn, "What do you guys want from me? I disgraced the family and I accepted the shame that came with it." "You're thinking too much if you think you have something worthy of capturing the Pitt's family interest. And stop whining about how you were kicked out of the family b
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley You Owe Me Ten Million Dollars
Layla stayed in her friend's house playing mahjong with a group of women. She was quite happy since she won most of the time. "What's your trick today, Layla? You won so many times." One of the women laughed sincerely. Layla shrugged and said proudly, "I've been playing mahjong since I was a little girl." "We've all been playing since we were children and we've been winning as well. It's really surprising you beat all four of us." The second woman who Layla didn't know butted in. "Layla is a pro at this. She's always playing it, hence, she knows how to win in any situation." Layla's friend, Susan Watts, thought she should add. "That reminds me, Layla. We heard your son-in-law, Adair Huxley, won Crystal Palace while playing the lottery. A lot of people said the estate manager personally delivered the keys to him, but I doubt that. Or did your son-in-law turn out to be from a wealthy family?" The first woman asked, diverting from the game. Layla, who was taking her time to stuff th
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley What Happened To The Crystal Palace?
Layla sat stupefied in her chair. She couldn't believe she had lost every single time. But that wasn't the reason she was nervous. "Hey, woman!" Ruth suddenly lost her cool, "I would've given you this card if you had won. But since you didn't, it's only right that you pay me my money before I lose my patience." "But I don't have such an amount. Where will I see such an amount of money to give you?" Layla asked in shock. "Why should I care?" Ruth hissed, "All I care about is my ten million dollars. Give it to me or you'll regret what I'll do to you." Olivia, who appeared to be scared shitless, inched closer to Layla and revealed, "This woman looks dangerous, Layla. I even heard her younger brother is one of Sharp Dagger's men." Sharp Dagger? Wasn't that the man who had held Benjamin ransom in his casino? Layla grew increasingly nervous when she thought of how Adair and Collette had merely managed to save Benjamin. "But I don't have ten million dollars. I've never even seen such a
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Ungrateful Mother-in-law
Ruth and Grace had no idea who Adair was, but they quickly deduced who he was from his sentence and that of Olivia's. "What are you doing here?" Olivia asked, narrowing her eyes at him. "Oh, that." Adair smiled, scratching the back of his head, "My mother-in-law told me she owes someone ten million dollars. But that's not why I'm here. I'm here because someone greedy has her eyes on Crystal Palace which belongs to me." "I take it this is Layla's useless son-in-law, Adair Huxley." Ruth was fast to grasp onto who he was. Adair looked behind Olivia and pinned his eyes on Ruth. Grace looked more like a lackey, so Adair quickly knew who the boss was. "I take it you're the one my mother-in-law owes ten million dollars and the one who gave her an IOU." Adair mumbled, taking the seat Layla had sat on when she played mahjong with them. His eyes settled on the mahjong boards and he drew one closer to himself. "I have another proposal for you." "What do you think you're doing, Adair?" Oliv
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Someone Tried To Kill Benjamin Pitt
Adair drove into the house's garage and parked the car. He turned to his side and was about to turn the doorknob when something grasped his shirt. "Tell me, Adair, how were you able to escape them?" Layla asked inquisitively. She knew her son-in-law had combat skills, but she really doubted he could take care of such people armed with clubs. "How I took care of them doesn't matter, mother-in-law. What matters is that I got rid of the IOU." Adair mused, shook her hand off and alighted from the car. Layla pushed the side of her door open and quickly rushed to meet Adair. "Don't think I now like you because you helped me take care of a mistake I made, after all, that's what son-in-laws should do for their mother-in-laws." She hissed, turning her head to the side. Adair refused to say what was running through her mind. "Just return the jewelry to Collette and no one will hear of this.""Don't make it sound like I'm a bad mother. I only took the jewelry because I had some bills to off
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley A Cloak And A Dagger Symbol
Jordan walked into the hospital, clad in his black suit as usual. He walked towards the tall figure who sat on a chair, a hand supporting his chin. "I've assigned someone to find out what attacked your father-in-law." Jordan mentioned when he got closer. "I'm sorry such a thing happened, Lord Adair." "A cloak and a dagger. Have you ever seen anyone with such a symbol before?" Adair asked out of nowhere, the look in his eyes signifying his thoughts were somewhere far away. Jordan paused for a moment before he shook his head, "I haven't, Lord Adair. But I can ask some people in the military. Or Sister might know something. Do you need me to find out?" "Yes. Yes, I do." Adair nodded. Jordan didn't waste any time as he whipped out his phone and placed a call to someone. After a few minutes of talking on the phone, he ended the call and returned back to Adair's side. "I have people looking into it. They should have something in an hour." He revealed, but Adair merely nodded. Jordan p

The End
"Hello, stranger." Collette heard as she picked up an apple. She didn't need to turn around to confirm who it was. "If you hadn't shown up, I'd have been left with no choice than to believe that you have a conscience." Collette smiled, her back still turned to Hannah. "Conscience?" Hannah scoffed and walked to the shelf housing the apples. "I wasn't in a very good place when I put you in a coma which unfortunately lasted for seven years. In those seven years, Adair hasn't been much of a good ex-lover and he's been hurting. Staying out of sight and reach was the only way to guarantee my safety and that of my brother's." "Ah, I see." Collette smiled, then turned to face Hannah squarely, "My mom has absolutely no idea that her daughter was in coma for seven years. But she's throwing a feast for her return to Crest Ville after seven years of traveling the world. And everyone's invited. Even her enemies aren't left out." "Strange. Your mother doesn't strike me like such a magnanimous w

You've Been In Comatose For Seven Years
Seven Years Later A redhead, clad in baggy pants and a crop top which left her belly button out in the open, nimbly walked up the stairs of the hospital and walked towards an elevator. The elevator opened to reveal a couple making out in it. They quickly composed themselves and lowered their heads in embarrassment when they saw her. The girl smiled and placed leaned on the elevator, closing her ears as she listened to the soft sound made by the elevator as it headed up. After three minutes, the elevator slid open, and she walked out of it, what looked like a school bag, slung across her shoulder. Behind her, the couple in the elevator couldn't help poking out their head in both surprise and awe just before the doors of the elevator closed again and sent them back. This was because no one apart from the family of the person on this floor was allowed up. And it was no news that the family of this person who occupied the whole floor owned the foundation. Collette Foundation. A found

I Can't Lose To Adair
Despite Tucker's threats, Adair didn't bother with him as he bent over and carried Benjamin in his arms. “Kill her.” Tucker spoke into his phone. However, he heard nothing from the owner of the phone. “I think he's dead.” A familiar voice sounded instead. “Jordan? Of course, you're alive, and Adair had everything contained as usual.” Tucker seethed angrily and quickly left the store. He hadn't gotten far when some men, who had their faces covered, walked up to him. Almost immediately, a van pulled in front of them, and he entered the van with them. Tucker hissed numerous times as he tried his best to contain the fact he lost to Adair once again. The van drove for over an hour before it stopped under a tunnel. Tucker alighted from the van and got into a black Lincoln which was parked just beside it. The Lincoln drove out afterward and headed straight to a seven-star hotel. “Why am I being summoned when I haven't done anything?” Tucker complained as soon as he walked into a privat

Have I Ever Told You How Desperate I Am To Kill You?
It took Adair precisely eleven minutes to get to where Tucker held Halsey and Benjamin hostage. He walked in on Tucker spraying something on an unconscious Benjamin. But despite being unconscious, Benjamin would wince in pain whenever it touched him. “Don't you feel ashamed picking on someone lesser than you?” Adair mocked, making his presence known. His words didn't deter Tucker, who kept throwing the water at Benjamin. “Who said he's lesser than I? Someone who Adair Huxley calls father-in-law isn't lesser than me.” “That's that, but I still don't see how a man in his early forties is a threat to you who's more than a thousand years old.” Adair shrugged and found himself a chair to sit on. Tucker dropped the spray he held on the table and glanced above his shoulders to see Adair's cold eyes. “Those cold eyes. Why does it seem like you turned off your emotions?” Tucker asked in surprise. He was yet to hear the news about Collette getting into an accident, since Adair's men were

Adair Only Cares About Collette
“No!” Zane yelled and got up to his feet as soon as possible. However, Sharon didn't fall like he expected because someone else had taken the bullet for her. “Grab her and get out of here.” Jordan hissed, as he dug his claws into his chest and pulled out the bullet lodged in it. Tucker raised his brow before flinging the gun away. “Jordan Hale. It's been a long time.” “I hoped you'd be dead by this time of the year. What a pity that good people die early, while bad people live the longest.” Jordan said in spite. “True. That's why you, Adair, Hannah and I have lived this long.” Tucker chuckled. He had better things to do, such as torturing someone with the name Benjamin Pitt, so he didn't want to waste time with Jordan. Without another word, he rushed towards Jordan and grabbed him violently by the neck, then threw him hard against the wall. Cobweb-like cracks appeared in the spot where Jordan came in contact with. The temporary pain didn't deter him, as Jordan got up almost imme

The Attacker Gets Attacked
Adair and Hannah stared at each other for a long time. Then she lowered her head to her phone and increased its volume. “A few minutes ago, there was a ghastly accident which involved a drunk driver and a beautiful young woman. It's revealed that she bears the name Collette Huxley and is married to the multi-billionaire, Adair Huxley. This happened along…" The reporter's words were drowned out as soon as Adair's phone which was beside him rang out. “Hold on, I think I forgot to say I also compelled the driver to ram into her, then hand himself over to the police afterward. Don't you think I have a great sense of justice?” Hannah giggled. Adair reached for his phone and went numb when he saw it was a call from Collette. He first exhaled in relief when he realized Hannah was just messing with him. “Wife, are you alright?” He asked anxiously as soon as he answered the call. “This is Garrison Hospital, is this Adair Huxley, Collette Huxley's husband?” An unfamiliar voice asked inst

She Might Be Dead
Martha's Penthouse Martha walked into the house to find Tucker drinking like he had been doing for the past three days. She had a book in her hand, which she handed over to him. “I was on my way in when someone said there's a parcel for you. All they need is your signature saying you've received it before they leave.” “A parcel? I didn't order anything.” Tucker frowned, refilling his glass with whiskey. “They can't be mistaken because your name is in this book.” Martha sighed, placing the book on the table. Tucker's phone buzzed at that moment, and he glanced at it only to exhale in disappointment, seeing it was a commercial message. “I can turn them away if that's what you want.” Martha said, reminding him there was still something for him to do. Reluctantly, Tucker reached for the book and signed it. Martha took it and left the house. She returned later with a coffin-like wrapped package. “Is it just me or does it look like a coffin?” Halsey asked, appearing from nowhere. S

I'm Sure Your Death Will Be Avenged
1627, Crest Ville Main MarketThe sun was bright and hot when it came in contact with the skin of humans as usual, but this didn't stop them from carrying out their daily activities. Among them was a woman who went from stall to stall asking one question, “I buy vervain for a very handsome price. Do you have any to sell to me?” Suddenly, she got pulled into a corner by an elderly woman. “Going around the market asking for who has vervain is the most stupid plan I've heard in a long time. It'll only be a matter of time before he finds out what you're doing. Get a grip on yourself, Hannah!” The elder woman berated the younger one. Hannah, who had her red hair held up neatly with a pin and had on a simple floral gown, sighed and shrugged the woman's hand away. “I know what I'm doing, and I'm more careful than usual. For example, do you know Jordan is walking around the market as we speak?” Hannah scoffed. “Jordan Hale? Adair's right-hand man?” The elderly woman asked to confirm th

Don't You Think It's Too Much Of A Coincidence?
Adair stayed home the next day, much to the surprise of Collette. “Are you staying at home because you want to, or you're staying at home, so I won't be kidnapped like yesterday?” Collette asked guiltily. She was currently sitting in front of her working table while Adair laid on the bed fiddling with his phone. When he heard her, he paused and towards her. “I'm thinking of getting you a rope. We'll tie it on our waists, so we don't wander far from each other whenever we go out together.” Adair said, a little too serious. Collette, who was about to laugh, froze. Wait, what? “You're not serious, right?” She asked in horror. Adair, who initially had his serious face on, laughed and got out of bed. He walked up to her and shrugged, “It's no longer safe to leave you at home. Especially with Tucker and Hannah around.” “Hannah mentioned something called vervain. She explained to me, it was something capable of keeping vampires from messing with our head. Why don't you get it for me?”
