The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley An Old Acquaintance
Trevor, who was in an extremely bad mood, paused when he saw his worthless cousin in-law. Although Collette and Adair had gotten married in secret, being the most beautiful female in Crest Ville, a lot of people had their eyes on Collette. Everyone refused to believe the town's most beautiful female was getting married to someone who had no idea who he was and was obviously poor. The Pitt's family worth had been shaken a little due to the scandal, but they still remained at the top of the food chain. "Is this where you work now?" Trevor asked condescendingly. The former Adair would've lowered his head immediately and nodded rigorously. But this Adair pretended not to hear Trevor as he walked past him and headed into the manager's office. The manager, George Garfield who knew all about Adair and the Pitt's family quickly reprimanded Adair, "That is no way to speak to a customer. Apologize to him right now or I'll fire you!" Adair stared at George for a brief second before he grabb
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Blacklist The Pitt's Family
The Pitt's Family Mansion Trevor stormed into the living room apparently livid with anger. The immediate family members consisted of the elderly Sarah Pitt and her two sons— her first son, David, second son, John and third son, Benjamin. Then David's wife; Olivia Pitt, John's wife; Abigail Pitt and Benjamin's wife, Layla Pitt. The patriarch of the family, Splane Pitt died more than ten years ago and Sarah had been shouldering all responsibilities ever since. Sarah had five grandchildren; Trevor and Alice, David's children. Evelyn and Noah who are twins, John's children and finally, Collette who is Benjamin's daughter. Being the first grandson of the family, Trevor's status in the family and company is higher than everyone else's other than his grandmother's. The first and second family all had prominent spots in the family's company. Layla and Benjamin on the other end had long been kicked out of the company after the scandal their daughter caused. Even the extended members in
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Getting A House
After more than two weeks in the hospital, Halsey was finally deemed fit to return back home. The wooden door was pushed open and Collette gently led Halsey inside the house. The house was a small, simple space with basic furnishings and minimal decoration.The walls were unpainted and the bare floor was covered in cheap carpet. There were a few chairs arranged around a coffee table, the furniture old, mismatched, and in need of repair.The lighting was limited to a single overhead fixture. There were no curtains on the window and no decorative items such as pictures or plants making the pace feel bare and utilitarian."I'll make something for us to eat." Collette said as soon as she helped Halsey lay down. Adair gulped down forcefully. "Why don't we just eat out? Remember the manager at Kings Hotel said we can pay for anything we eat with the card he gave us." "And I told you he might've gotten the wrong person." Collette replied walking towards the kitchen sink which was situated
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Here's The Key To Crystal Palace, Sir
"Why did the estate security let a beggar in here?" One of those who had come to rent an apartment, voiced out as soon as he saw Adair. The place quietened down as everyone turned to see who it was. Even the house agent frowned and took out her phone. "I'll call them right now." The house agent said as she dialed their number. When it connected, she said in disdain, "There's a human trash in the estate which you have to take out. Be here as soon as possible." "Why does he look familiar?" Someone else commented, peering keenly at Adair's face. Adair was a handsome man who was built to perfection. He was the type of man people said walked out of a carefully made painting. However, because he was poor, everyone overlooked his handsomeness and despised him. "Isn't that Adair Huxley? The worthless thing: who got married to the most beautiful woman in Crest Ville?" Someone gasped from the side. Only then did everyone else recognize him. "His entire outfit isn't worth more than $5. Wh
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley I Had No Idea You Were Expecting An Important Buyer
The chubby man was Ezra Klein, and he was the manager of Diamond Ridge Estate and a few more popular estates in Crest Ville. He was a renowned figure. One that a lot of people hoped to butter up to. So the crowd were quite surprised to see him call such a lousy person like Adair 'sir'. Adair's lips spasmed as he glanced down at Ezra. He had his reason for not presenting himself to the world which was because he intended to live his life in peace. After losing his memories for three years, he got a taste of what it was like to be stricken with poverty and in addition got married to someone he loved and has a beautiful younger sister. Because he couldn't disappear quietly like when it was just him, he decided to tell them of his status at a more relaxed time so they won't be too shocked and estrange themselves from him. "Mr. Klein, are you sure you have the right person? Because this is Adair Huxley, and I can assure you he doesn't come from a wealthy family or is affiliated with a
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley No Collette Huxley, No Investment
The Pitt's family Mansion "So you're saying Ezra Klein hit you because of Adair?" Sarah asked and a seething Trevor nodded, he could still feel Ezra's hard hand on his cheek. "And that was after you said he mistook Adair for someone else?" Sarah asked again and Trevor nodded. "Has this family's stupid son-in-law suddenly become someone of importance?" Alice, who had been waiting for an opportunity to say something, butted in, "That's the same thought I had, granny. But after Trevor was dragged out of the estate, Mr. Klein said Adair had won a lottery. And that lottery was the Crystal Palace." "What? Crystal Palace? Are you sure it's Crystal Palace?" David's eyes bulged. "Yes, I'm sure of what I heard. Mr. Klein personally handed the keys over to Adair." Alice nodded. "While something like that is of utmost importance, why were you two in Diamond Ridge Estate? Perhaps, did you go to rent an apartment?" Evelyn suddenly asked and the numerous eyes in the room directed their attenti
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley I'll Bankrupt Them If They Make You Cry Again
The Pitt's Family Mansion "The chairman's assistant really said that?" Sarah asked in disbelief. Noah and Evelyn nodded respectively. "Didn't you tell him she's no longer part of the Pitt's family because of the disgrace she brought upon us three years ago?" Sarah probed further. "We did, but he made it clear it's her or no one else." Noah revealed. "Perhaps he heard about the glorious days of the Pitt's family when Collette was still part of this family and even the manager of our family's company." Evelyn decided to add. "On second thought, since the chairman insisted, doesn't that mean he has picked interest in Collette?" Layla, who had been quiet the whole time, suggested, excitement obvious in her eyes. If that was indeed true, then not only will her daughter be accepted back into the family, the third family's position in the family will be elevated as well. The thought made Layla have butterflies in her stomach. The first and second family also looked at her with envy.
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley This Could Be A Fake Signature
Collette stopped walking as soon as she walked out of the elevator. Coincidentally, the chairman's assistant was right outside. He recognized Collette as soon as he saw her and sighed within him wondering if his boss picked interest in her because of how beautiful she was. Nevertheless, he braced himself and walked towards her with a calm smile. "You must be Mrs. Huxley?" He asked and she nodded. "Just a few minutes ago, I was told the chairman refused to see the representatives sent by the Pitt's family and requested for me instead." Collette went straight to the point. "Yes, Mrs. Huxley. Please, this way." Dan nodded, pointing towards the only office in the entire floor. Although apprehensive, Collette nodded and followed behind him. He knocked once before pulling the door open, then ushered her in. As soon as she was in, he stepped back and closed the door. From where she stood, Collette could see a figure on his office chair. "Mrs. Huxley?" The person called, getting onto h

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?”
