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 Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley The Third Family No Longer Has A Place Here
The room was dead silent as David slowly reached for his phone and answered it. Everyone watched his expression as his pupils dilated in shock. When he got off the call, he turned to Sarah, "I hired someone to look into the reason why our former partners parted ways with us only to discover the order had come from Iris Dame." "Iris Dame? Like the famous Iris Dame who we've only heard of, but has never been opportuned to see?" Olivia blurted out in surprise and David nodded. "According to him, Iris clearly issued an order to company owners that she'll bankrupt anyone doing business with our family." David added. Panic flashed past Sarah's eyes as she looked down at the signature in the document she held. She didn't voice out her thoughts, but Adair could tell she had a number of things running through her mind. "Which of you morons offended Iris Dame without realizing it?" She yelled as she whipped her head back up. The ferocious look on her face caused everyone to shrink back th
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Enemies Are Crossing Into The Country
Halsey clung tightly to Collette's body when she saw Layla and Benjamin walk into the house. The faces were unfamiliar and their dressing reeked of wealth. Layla had a disgruntled look on her face as she stared around the house. "I don't see myself staying in a place like this. When do we move into the Crystal Palace?" Without specifying, everyone knew she was talking to Adair.Adair didn't pick offense with her as he smiled. "The estate manager insisted on furnishing it again. He said I'll be able to move in in a week's time." "A week's time? Why did you provoke the old lady if you knew it'd take that long!" Layla yelled. Collette sighed. To be honest, she was tired of hearing her mother yell at them this way. But she had been condoning it because she knew she failed her parents. "The Pitt's family has kicked you out, mother. You have no place to go at the moment, so I'll have to beg you to make do with our place until this Crystal Palace that was given to Adair is ready." Colle
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Enemies
The car stopped in a remote area which led citizens out of Crest Ville — the country's border. And guarding it were hundreds of men. Adair got out of the car and surveyed the area. The men who had been standing upright, immediately fell on their knees, heads bent to the ground. Jordan got out of the car as well, then extended his hand towards Adair. Adair looked down on it only to see a blood bag. "If I'm not mistaken, you've not had blood for three years which was why you kept seeing the bloody moon." Jordan muttered, his head bent as well. Adair nodded and took the blood bag. "Thank you." It took him only five seconds to drain the entire bag. Then he looked down at his soldiers. "Get up."Their movement was in sync as they got up at the same time, creating a beautiful artwork. "Have you been doing this for the past three years?" Adair asked Jordan as he strolled closer to the border. "Yes, sir." Jordan answered only to receive a warning side glance from Adair. Then he quickly
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Lesser Mouth To Feed
The new recruit was yanked backward and the man holding her looked straight at Adair, a tight smile lingering on his face. Jordan also became alert when he saw the man. "I needed to see you myself." Although far from them, Jordan and Adair heard the man quite clearly. "I'm glad you're alive though. My wish to kill you with my bare hands will come true after all." "Let the girl go and I might consider letting you live a few more days, Sinclair." Adair sighed softly. Sinclair chuckled, "You have no idea what I stand to gain when I drive a stake through your dark heart." "Just let the girl go and we can go shopping for the right stake." Adair mumbled. Sinclair stared straight at Adair for a few more seconds before pushing the girl into Crest Ville. As soon as she was in, she rushed towards the rest of her team members who were getting ready to come to her. Aster who witnessed the whole scene, had no idea why the man held the new recruit or who he was, so she intended to find out.
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Getting A Car Of Hundreds Of Millions Of Dollars
Collette got a couple of things from the supermarket that was sure to last them a few days, then she went ahead to pay. Unfortunately, one swipe at the card and the transaction was denied. "Excuse me, ma'am, but your card says 'insufficient fund'." The cashier said, raising her head to look at Collette. Collette froze. "Are you sure? Try it again. I'm sure there's enough to pay for everything." The cashier sighed a little then tried the transaction again. However, it still said insufficient funds."I'm sorry, ma'am. I have to attend to others." The cashier stated, extending the card towards Collette. Collette took it rigidly, and ignoring the looks from those behind her, she stormed out of the supermarket. Her phone vibrated in her pocket once she was out and she took it out to see it was a notification from her bank informing her a purchase she made was successful. A purchase? When did she ever make a purchase? Panicked, she went through the description of what she had bought
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Benjamin In Trouble
Minutes after he left the automobile shop, a sports car stopped in front of the shop and a tall figure rushed out. "Where's the man who bought the most expensive car in my shop?" He asked no one in particular, frantically looking around. "He left saying he has to pick up his wife from the bank." The cashier answered politely. "Didn't you tell him I asked him to wait for me?" He asked aggressively and the cashier shrank her neck in fright. After a while, the man asked, "Who can give me an avid description of what he looks like?"Everyone's eyes turned to the sales attendant who had attended to Adair. The other sales attendants stared at him with envy, while the owner of the shop looked at him like a gem. "If we can rope in this customer, then everyone is getting a raise. So I want you to describe how he looks to someone who'd try to draw me a picture. You have to be very careful." The man said and the attendant nodded. "Yes, sir." He answered stiffly. Then walked behind the man as

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?”
