It was not surprising that what happened at the Grandeur Hotels made the news. People were calling Luthan The Mysterious Multi-millionaire and there were speculations. Soon enough a photo began to circulate among blogs, it was the vaguest and most blurry picture of him at the hotel and you couldn't really identify him from the pictures but many of the people who attended the Carter’s party were easily convinced that it was Luthan.His name was soon flying about doubtfully but he didn't mind at all. He was fine with simply taking care of Mary Lynn while plans were being made for her surgery. Although he didn't mind, someone else was using the rumors to their advantage.Anthony realized early that they could use Luthan's new and sudden fame to draw in investors. Afterall, Luthan still had the last name King.There were a few people in the business circle who had heard of what happened at the Carter party but we're not there themselves. They may not have been as rich as the others who we
The case was won easily. It helped that Hector had completely distabilized Barry by that first visit and by appearing in multiple places where Barry visited while he gathered evidence for the case. It got to a point that Barry had to beg Hector to try and find a way out of it. He pleaded that he would do anything for the case to be dropped but his suffering and desperation only made Hector happy.Hector told him that Luthan had only one intention; to make Barry pay for his crimes and nothing the lawyer could say or do would override that plan. When Barry turned to the King family they abandoned him, they threatened him to keep their name out of his mouth if he wanted to stay alive for much longer. He pleaded again with Hector Williams for immunity, he promised to tell all that he knew about the Kings if Hector would help him out but Hector didn't promise him anything especially when it became clear that he didn't have enough dirt on the Kings. They were being careful with him because
As soon as Luthan was told this news he rushed to the room where the man was staying.He stood at the bed side, tears prickling his eyes as the man smiled. His body was frail and weak-looking like he might simply wither away in the wind the next second.“Didn't anyone ever tell you not to look at sick people like that?” Stanley said still smiling. “Try to look happy to see me will you?”Luthan shook himself and drew closer. “How did this happen?”“It's a disease,” the man said. “Those things happen. You can't protect me from everything Luthan,” the man whispered. “Can you do me some good and not look at me as though you're already at my funeral.”Luthan forced a smile and Stanley's grew wider. “Now will you introduce the lovely lady by your side?”“This is Mary Lynn,” Luthan introduced. “The lady I told you about.”“You didn't mention she was this pretty,” Stanley teased. “I feel stronger just looking at her.”Mary Lynn smiled and drew closer to his bed. Stanley took her hand and drew
Not long after Stanley Flair was declared dead by the doctor, the lawyer walked up to Luthan and asked him to speak at his earliest convenience. Stanley had already arranged everything for Luthan to be his successor and they planned to waste no time in putting things in place, no doubt this was all Stanley's orders.Luthan took on the responsibility as Stanley's living successor to make sure that Stanley was seen off the earth the way he wanted. He handled the funeral exactly the way Stanley had wanted and said a final farewell to the amazing friend he had stumbled into in prison and in life.The lawyer was quick and efficient. In no time all the assets were transfered to Luthan and as soon as he sorted out everything there he returned back to his city.While Luthan had just inherited an insane amount of money, the Kings were not doing well at all. The investors they had managed to pull using Luthan's name had deserted them at the early stages and they were on thin ice.Luthan had a l
“Let's talk in my office,” Luthan said as his brother's voice faded off in the distance. Jordan's eyes brightened as he realized that Luthan was considering his proposal.“I'm going to cut to the chase,” Luthan said when they were in his office. “I'll accept your proposal,” he continued before the smile could settle on Jordan's face. “But I'll need your cooperation on a little something before we get things signed.”“What's that Mr. Luthan?” Jordan asked eagerly.“I need you to buy a company for me,” Luthan said. He adjusted on his seat and placed a hand under chin.“But Mr. Luthan, you buy companies on a daily basis.” Jordan said, obviously confused. “I want to buy a company but I don't want them to know that they have sold it to me,” Luthan said.“Ah,” Jordan's eyebrows rose slightly. “I see.”“I'll handle all the costs of the entire deal all I need from you is the signature of the owner of that company on the document. Do you think you are up to it?”“Of course,” Jordan Reigns smi
“No way,” Camille laughed but the laugh came out more bitter than she expected and she pressed a hand over her mouth to stiffle the emotions.The woman who turned to look at her looked nothing like the Mary Lynn she knew. The woman who had had a face like a Barbie doll that was brought too close to a fire was unrecognizable from the face she looked into now.Gorgeous long lashes framed baby blue eyes. A button nose sat regally in the center of her face. Soft pink lips rested below it, stretched as though they were made for smiling. Her black hair fell in black, shiny, soft waves that framed her heart shaped face.“No way!” Camille barked out with laughter as Kimberly joined her. “The ugly duckling got a makeover!”Camille was glad to see that the smile was wiped of Mary Lynn’s face.“I didn't even realize that it was her,” Kimberly said, voice soft with surprise. “How did you know?”Camille could tell that Kimberly was getting swayed by the fact that Luthan had spent such money at her
The two women stood confused as the manager packed up their purchases and handed the many bags over to Mary Lynn. Camille was about to protest, wondering why the manager was handing their purchases over to Mary but they soon realized when Mary held the bags out to them.“Thank you so much for your patronage,” Mary said in her sweet, polite voice. “Would you like someone to help you take your shopping bags to your cars. We reserve only the finest treatment for our best customers as you must know.”Kimberly was stunned, she stood silent, confused. Camille's scoffed. “Hold on,” she said. “You work here? I really overestimated you. What, is the lottery money all gone? Or has Luthan gotten tired of spending on you? You got too comfortable with all that money he wasted on you and now find yourself working in customer service huh?”Mary Lynn shook her head slowly. She handed the bags to the sales persons nearby. “Actually, this is my store.”A simple sentence stunned so many people into sil
While the Carter family were convincing themselves that they had everything under control, the King family already believed that they didn't just have the upper hand but that they were way ahead of Luthan King.Camille was surprised that Arthur did not say anything about the money she splurged in Mary Lynn's shop but it was not enough to get her feeling even remotely happy. She was pissed for over a week replaying the incident that had happened in that mall. It was like adding salt to injury when she discovered that it wasn't just the store that belonged to Mary Lynn but the entire mall.It was extremely annoying because she did most of her shopping at that mall, finding out now that Mary Lynn had bought the store, or rather that the store had been bought for her made Camille want to throw out everything she ever bought from there. Set it all ablaze even.Her emotions were not felt by Arthur and Anthony because both were extremely excited about the deal that they had recently received
