Aidan delayed time to buy the pen. Nevertheless, they got eyes on him, so there was no way he could play smart at them because they are used to this. It's their job.

After minutes of getting the pen, Aidan came back and entered the room. He stood inside the room and sighed heavily.

He switched on the room lights and then walked up to the bed and picked up the papers and began to sign. He signed as instructed.

Immediately he was done, he dropped the papers on the bed and stood with his arms akimbo as he gazed at the already signed papers by him.

The sound of clapping hands echoed from his phone. This tells that the lady was clapping because he had done a great job by signing the papers.

“Well done job, Aidan.” her voice vibrated the phone and Aidan could feel her happiness even though he wasn't seeing her. But her response from the phone was enough to tell him how the lady feels at the moment.

Indeed, this is what is called making others cry just to achieve your heart's desire.

    Aidan brought out his gold-plated phone from his pocket and checked the caller's ID. As his instinct told him, that was what he saw. The mysterious lady…At least, she used the phone number she called him the previous night. “Is the call not important? Why are you ignoring it?” Sharon asked, confused why Aidan kept staring at the phone without picking it up. Aidan smiled awkwardly without responding to the call until it stopped ringing. He then put it on vibrating mode to avoid noise.He continued to eat his food and the lady's call came in again. Immediately Aidan noticed it, gritted his teeth, and frowned but none of the people sitting at the dining table with him saw it.“Gosh,” Aidan exhaled and clasped his palms against his forehead.“What's it, big bro?” Catherine curiously inquired and gazed at him.“I just remembered that I have a meeting with some business partners today in the office. Now, my manager is calling to inform me.” Aidan lied.“Ohh, I'm sorry about that. Why no

    Human beings are wicked and heartless.“You?” Aidan finally muttered after staring at the lady for what seemed like ages.“Yes, me, boss,” she happily responded to him with a teasing chuckle as she covered the space between the two of them.Aidan clenched his fist furiously as his teeth clunk against each other because of how angry he was.It was as if he should punch her in the face.“Anna…” Aidan called out through gritted teeth.“Yes, that's my name, Mr. Aidan. I was one of your employees, but currently, I'm your wife. So, call my name with some respect, please.” she smirked.“So you go to this extent despite sending double of your salary to you?” he questioned scornfully.“Aidan, do you think I seek employment in your company just because I wanted to work there? Nah, I had a different mission that's why I sought a job in your company. Unfortunately, immediately after you employed me, you traveled for an errand for three years without returning. Only God knows how angry I was during

Their facial expressions could tell that some of them are guilty of what was happening currently.“Are you surprised?” Aidan jested at her and let go of her hand.“ Always think twice before you act. Never hurt someone just to get what you desire. It's obvious that your parents didn't train you correctly. You need more home training, Anna.

Mr. Smith and Gregory.

Whereas, Gregory and Mr. Smith arranged between themselves to meet in a certain location where Mr. Smith's private jet was always parked. They entered the private jet, intending to fly away from their country to a faraway land where no one would be able to predict where they were. They knew that what they did was unlawful, and they wouldn't want to stay and face the consequences of their evil deed

    “No…” Kate screamed at the top of her voice as she took her hand off the young man who was holding her and ran to her younger brother.“ Felix…!”Sharon froze with her eyes widened in disbelief. She couldn't tell if she should run or pray for the earth to open and swallow her up.On the other hand, fear gripped Antonio, who was still pointing the gun toward Felix. Suddenly, the gun fell off his hand to the ground.“Sir, let's escape. The police are approaching this room." One of the guards who was holding Sharon announced and quickly freed her.With haste, they ran out of the room, following different angles in the house until they found a way out.Unfortunately, the other guards had already taken Gregory away from the mansion to a safer place.There was a tunnel for escape that led to the outside of the mansion. That was the escape road that Gregory's guards took him to and escaped with him from the police.The underground police officers heard the gunshot and ran towards the room the

It was as if she were forced to eat dinner with them.Her gaze was buried in the food, refusing to lift her gaze, so she wouldn't have eye contact with Alpha king. She never wanted to do that, but her guilty conscience wasn't allowing her to free herself.Nonetheless, she assured herself that none of them was aware that she was the cause of the alpha king's sickness. Although she never planned to have dinner with them, she wanted to request Alpha Ryder. That's why she sat with them at the dining table.On the contrary, Alvina didn't inform the alpha king that Gabriella was the cause of his illness, rather she made him believe that his staff was stolen by an unknown person that's why he almost lost his life.The Alpha King was left with no option but to believe what Alvina told her. Now, after they were done eating the dinner together, Gabriella announce

    The police handcuffed four of Antonio's boys. Although there were six, two of the young men Antonio sent were shot dead by Aidan's bodyguards before the police could even arrive.Aidan didn't go with them as he was scared that if he left, another attack might occur again.The young men were taken to Mike's mansion. Upon arriving there, they called for the gatekeepers' attention.“This is Inspector Lincoln, an inspector from one of the police stations. These young men were caught in someone's house as they went there to attack his family. After they were caught and asked a few questions, they said their boss who sent them for this mission is residing here. So, we are here to see your boss. Please inform him that the police are here to see him. He should kindly step out, so we could discuss peacefully and know whether these young men are telling the truth or not.”Inspector Lincoln spoke to the gatekeepers with a calm voice, as though he didn't go there to confront a criminal.“Sir,” one

    With haste, Aidan dialed Inspector Lincoln's contact. As expected, he picked up almost immediately.As soon as Inspector Lincoln picked up, Aidan didn't exchange greetings with the inspector; rather, he went ahead and told Inspector Lincoln about what was happening in his house.Immediately after he passed the information, he terminated the call as his heart was pounding heavily inside his chest as if it were going to pluck out of its place.“What's wrong, sir?” Charlotte fearfully asked, even when she heard what Aidan told the police during the phone call.Aidan didn't answer Charlotte; rather, he grabbed her hand and attempted to drag her out of the house to his place because he knew that for Charlotte, staying home alone was dangerous as Antonio's boys were out there to hunt them all.“Follow me,” Aidan said.Charlotte nodded and followed him. Just as they stepped outside the house, he saw the young man who was trying to escape, dead already.“Hey, shouldn't you have spared his life

    Now, Aidan and Wayne have been trying to reach out to Felix and Mike, but they couldn't. They were lost about what was happening.That alone was enough to tell them something was wrong somewhere. They had feelings that Mike was hiding something from them.“Undoubtedly, my mind is telling me that Mike is working for Antonio and Gregory. If not that, then how come we didn't hear from them after he called Felix to meet with him at a certain address?” Wayne asked suspiciously.“I'm certain that he is hiding something crucial away from us, but what could that be? However, if he turns against us, I don't think he will also betray Felix, his best friend, or what do you think?” Aidan said.“This is more serious than I thought. We have been deceived,” said Wayne with a sad expression.They stood there wondering what to do as they knew that all of them were greatly in danger. One could see how worried they were as they stood by the front of a hotel looking around if they would catch a glimpse of

    “That's never an excuse, Mike. Must you kill someone before you can be wealthy, huh? Do I look like a kid to you that you can easily toil with?” Felix yelled at Mike at the top of his voice.“Don't blame me, Felix.” Mike snapped.“ Do you know what I was going through? Besides, I never knew that it was your Mom. I just found out that it's your Mom who we poisoned when you told me about hunting Antonio for poisoning your mom.” “So, what are you saying, young man? Must you know that it was Felix's Mom before you refused to obey your boss? It's a crucial offense to claim someone's life. You don't have the power to give life. So, why do you take away life?” Sharon squawks at him.“I guess it's time for me to interrupt you all because your conversation is beginning to disturb my eardrums,” said Antonio with his hands akimbo.“Do not dare to be a good man here when you are the devil himself. I should have known that this is who you are from the very beginning. I'm so disappointed in you, Ant

    An hour later, Felix woke up in a strange place, feeling dizzy as if he were beaten up by some gangsters.“Ahh…!” Felix shrieked sorrowfully as he blinked his eyes repeatedly, trying to figure out where he was.“Felix, are you okay?” A low tone of voice echoed in his ears, calling for his attention. He lazily raised his head and looked at the two ladies who were tied beside him.Upon setting eyes on Kate and Sharon, Felix was shocked to see them; he never knew it was a trap that was set against him.He stared at them for a few minutes, wondering if truly he was looking at his sister and Sharon.“H-how? And why?” Felix stammered. “What happened? How did I get here? If I could recall, I planned to meet with Mike, so how did I end up here?” He asked more questions.“See, Felix, your friends betrayed us. I wonder where you picked them from because they are not people. We should have trusted. They brought us here and kept us hostage. Unfortunately, they are working for Antonio.” Kate annou

    Felix, Wayne, and Aidan met at the place where they had the previous meeting as a team.Immediately after Aidan had given the guns to Felix, Felix informed Mike.Mike sent a different address from the place he was presently in. However, Mike didn't fail to inform Wayne and Aidan.“The two remaining guys shouldn't follow you, please. I believe that Antonio will see us from afar if we are approaching the location he promised to send soon. I tell you, these two guys have numerous unknown agents that are working for them. They are almost everywhere in the city. “So, you can imagine where he would bewhile watching his boys bring you to him. However, you guys should be alert because we might call for help anytime soon after Felix has successfully met with Antonio and Gregory.“The last thing is, please don't involve the police in this. If you do so, then it would be hard for us to achieve our goal.” Mike advised.“Yeah, we know what to do. There's no need for you to remind us, man…” Wayne
