Consider this as your capital set aside for the creation of more wealth. Life itself is a risk."

Now, Victoria felt she was hiding something, he couldn't be a school drop-off. No uneducated person explains something in this manner. And not even all educated persons could.

He would be reported to Williams and after much investigation, his cover would be blown. Immediately Juliet sighted him she yelled. "What took you so long idiot, do you know that we are short of manpower here?" Immediately after she said this, Ken began to quiver. A cold shiver down his spine. His supposed disguise had been caught so easily. Now, there was no going back. Judith would strip him off his disguise and would push him into the crowd where Rachael would sight him. At that time, it would be all over. "Oh my god,

"Me? I don't know you from anywhere," Ken replied with his forged voice. "What do you mean by you don't know me," Rachael returned. "I don't know what you are talking about," Ken replied trying as much as he could to be calm, he did not want to attract unnecessary attention. Not when he was in disguise, Williams might come over and his suspicions would be confirmed. "You are Ken. I don't know how but I know you are Ken." At the revelation of this, Ken's heart skipped a lot of beats. And subsequent beats pounded hard against the wall of his chest, he was in trouble. Stream of sweat that running down from the left corner of his face. No matter how hard he tried to hide his fear it seemed almost impossible. "This might be the end," he thought. Seeing what was happening and the commotion her sister was about to cause, Victoria ran to the scene and held Rachael by the elbow. "We have to go now, this is not ken.

Meanwhile, Judith stood in the kitchen waiting impatiently for someone. The door made a cracking sound, signifying that someone just opened it and Danxo walked, locking the door properly behind him. "What took you so long," Judith fired. "I had something to put in place. Besides, you don't have any right to order me around like a baby, you have no damn right over me," Danxo fired. "Pairing me up with you was the worst thing that ever happened to me." "Whatever! Why did you call me here in the first place," Danxo inquired. "While you were busy cruising, I was being diligent. That guy, Ken has been acting weird lately under the disguise that his lover is around and he doesn't want her to notice him. But I didn't believe a word from him. A few minutes ago, I saw him going into a secret room after he removed his phone from where I kept them. And I also saw Lawrence going to the room. I feel they are partners.

As Richard attempted to pull the trigger, he felt a hard hit on his head and he fell beside Lawrence groaning with pain. The pain was so sharp that stream of fresh tears flowed freely from his eyes. Now he was bleeding from two different places, his head and his upper arm. "Guess who has joined me in my agony," Lawrence laughed. "Shut up your big mouth," Ken fired. "I still have my gun with me." "That?" Lawrence said pointing at the gun which had flown out of his hand and was now lying on the floor. Knowing what Lawrence was talking about he tried hard to get up and get the gun. But before he could do that, a familiar hand-picked the gun up from the floor. It was Danxo. At this, Ken knew that there was trouble. "Well! well!! well!! What do we have here? You guys have made the job easier for me. Ken is a spy from Richard who also knows the missing heir's whereabouts. And Williams's friend who has something against him and you also have some thing that can help your friend's ene

Lawrence stood there as more large lumps went down his spine like large stones thrown down into a rusty tunnel and cold shivers ran down his spine. He stared into the man before him, staring at him with an evil smile hovering on his face and he felt like tearing that smile away from his dark face. "Just walked into your trap, did you?" Divo said to Lawrence. "I knew that this was the perfect bait to get you," he added to what he had earlier said. "I knew that something was you walked passed us the other day," Lawrence whispered out loud still shaking with great fear and trembling like a little child about to be locked away in a dark scary room. "But how were you able to find out that I had caught you?" Lawrence thought aloud. At this, Divo stepped towards him while he gradually moved backward, and at a point, he stop and shot a glare at Lawrence. "Well let us say I just got to know that you were spying on me from the way you stared at me that day when I walked by that day. I was

Richard shivered hard with fear and cold shivers ran down his spine as the first set of whips created bold lines on his body. The whips felt like a surge of electric current all around him and he shivered hard at their effect.

"It is a great suggestion but we cannot deny the fact that I am married to someone," Victoria returned almost immediately. Mrs. Luci turned towards Victoria the very instant she heard what her daughter just threw out of her mouth and she shot a glare at her. "Do you even enjoy living with that slut?" Mrs. Luci inquired trying hard to control a total outburst since Victoria was the center of attraction there. Victoria sighed inwardly, she might sometimes act like she hated Richard passionately but it was still worth it seeing him around. The fact was just that most of the time, her disgust for him and hatred always overshadowed her soft heart toward him. "Did you even hear what I just said?" Mrs. Luci inquired snapping her off her thoughts. "It's not that mum. You don't seem to get the point that I am trying to make here. The problem is not with me, it's with Richard," Victoria replied quickly. "How? Does he have a say in a matter like this?" Mrs. Luci inquired. "He doesn't b

It was the agent in charge of their goods ordered from outside the country. She just couldn't wait to hear that the goods had landed safely. "Good day mam," the agent greeted. "Good day to you too," Lady Tashia replied. "So how did it go?" She inquired. "Hmmm," the agent lingered a little before answering her question.
