Racing through the city's skyline, Leander finally arrived at Brianna's residence. However, he was shocked to find Brianna in his rearview mirror, standing at the entrance of the opulent mansion. She was dressed in a chic outfit with stylish sunglasses perched on her face.Sighing nervously, Leander tapped the brake and lowered the tinted windows. Until Leander waved frantically, Brianna had no idea what was going on.Stepping closer, she squinted to identify him. Seeing Leander in a limited version Rolls-Royce car model struck her with awe, hands covering her mouth. “Wow!” She was so excited.Leander winked, a mischievous sparkle in his eyes. "Are you off somewhere, dear?"Brianna exhaled and said, "Um, my friend had a crash and has been hospitalized since yesterday, so I wanna go visit her, but my driver isn't here""Do you need a ride? Trust me, I will perform better than your driver," Leander replied with sarcasm. With a smile forming on her face, Brianna nodded, “Ah, I’m sure y
Arriving at the bustling hospital, Leander however pulled up. He and Brianna both exited the car and briskly made their way toward the hospital ward.Walking down the corridor, they were approached by a man in a pristine white lab coat, his face holding a hint of nervousness, "Your Excellency, how may I help you. Who are you looking for?" he queried. The honorific used by the doctor shows Brianna is widely recognized as a former royal member and high-profile individual.Brianna, caught off guard, moved ahead. "Okay, we are searching for a patient who gets by the name Ms. Walker. I heard she was brought in yesterday," she inquired in a hushed voice."Excuse me, ma'am, I’m sorry to ask. How do you know her? Please, it is just for safety," Brianna and Leander were caught off guard by the doctor’s unexpected question, as it seemed out of place for him to ask someone of noble heritage, not even a stranger.Arching her eyebrows in disapproval, Brianna let out a long breath and taunted sharp
Brianna hopped back into Leander's sleek Rolls-Royce and before they smoothly pulled away from the hospital. Now they have left. Despite this, Leander couldn’t help but question where they would go next, given their lack of planning. Brianna, with a mischievous glint in her eye, simply declared he was to be her guest for the day, hinting at a visit to her home. "Okay, it will be appreciated," Brianna replied, her eyes sparkling with warmth, causing his heart to quicken. "Okay but um I won't linger, Brianna. There’s an urgent matter that needs to be resolved before sunset; it's crucial," Leander said, his eyes brimming with earnestness, a faint yet genuine smile gracing his lips. Leander's gaze locked with Brianna's. A nod of assurance accompanied by a fleeting smile, he inquired softly, "Brianna, I noticed you have always loved to stay around me? What draws your attention to me? I can’t deny it, I was surprised by your boldness in standing up for me against Rex. I’ve never e
Shortly after, the chefs whisked away the empty plates from the dining table, seamlessly replacing them with steaming new filled dishes. Brianna's raised eyebrow silently questioned the delay, her impatience palpable.As the chef left, Brianna heaved a deep sigh of relief, a radiant grin lighting up her face. "Awwn, alright everyone..." Her eyes sparkled with anticipation as she reached for a plate of beef Wellington, along with the others.As Leander chewed, disbelief gnawed at him; the food was delicious, unlike anything he had ever tasted before. Nonetheless, he pondered how the skilled chefs could possibly make mistakes and serve meals that were not fully cooked. His mind was flooded with queries, causing him to halt his meal.Brianna noticed that Leander wasn’t pleased and sensed his worry. He slouched in his chair, unease clouding his gaze. The situation didn't sit well with Brianna. Frowning, she brainstormed ways to encourage his appetite."Leander, you are feeling off? What
Brianna’s gaze remained locked on Camila as she leaned forward on the couch, a mixture of frustration and disillusionment apparent on her face. The urge to confront Camila gnawed at her. 'Not speaking up could indirectly give Camila the impression that she did something right,’ Brianna thought to herself."Camila, we've been close for so long, and now you decide to play a trick by contaminating the food? It’s an obvious and direct act of attempted murder," Anger and revulsion were evident in Brianna’s voice as it cut through the tense atmosphere. Camila, lacking the ability to defend herself, stared at the ground, her face marked with guilt."What was the reason for your decision to pull that stunt? Your stupidity could cost the chef their jobs. Just think, if I had ingested the toxin you planned for Leander .....," Brianna's tone was fiery and resolute. Frowning in annoyance, she demanded with authority, "Now tell me where the hell you stash the poison?”"I'm sorry; but I would exp
"Why do you doubt that's possible?" With a sharp gasp, Leander’s shoulders slumped in anxiety.Daxton nervously shifted in his seat before answering, “It’s too early and we haven’t made arrangements for his replacement yet,” he said, glancing around the room for support. The silence was palpable as the tension grew between them."But I will surely consult with your mother about it in order to reach a decision," he continued, sighing softly. He however took a deep breath, weighing his options and considering whether severing ties with Jeeves was the only solution after this breach of trust.Daxton pondered silently, his face etched with worry. "Jeeves has been a loyal butler for over years now”He mused, "I can't imagine him being malevolent" Despite his doubts, Daxton's trust in Jeeves had never wavered. "He's always been reliable," he said.Inhaling sharply, Leander’s face became flooded with comprehension as he grappled with inner turmoil over what to do next.Daxton's gaze was sof
Leander's smile strained, his eyes shut in resolve. "Are you convinced that I’m eager to be the new owner of Etherium University?" he declared. McCoy chuckled softly, furrowing his brows. Leander's words hit him like a sudden gust of wind, leaving him incredulous. "Leander, you can't be serious," McCoy said in disbelief. A flicker of annoyance flashed across Leander's face before he regained his composure. He was not about to let McCoy underestimate him. "Hahaha, Etherium University's value is beyond your pocket money," McCoy countered. Leander met McCoy's doubtful gaze and held it steadily. It was clear that McCoy had no idea what he was capable of. Undeterred, Leander persisted. "I'm serious. I can secure this university in weeks if the administration transfer process is expedited," he asserted confidently. McCoy's eyes twinkled as he swallowed, a mischievous grin playing on his lips. "You know, our university's got a cool £900 million in the bank," he said with a hint
"Okay, Leander. I'm not overthinking anything, you are just hiding your feelings," Brianna sighed, her eyes glinting with determination. Leander sitting limpy on the couch was rendered speechless by her cryptic words.After a brief moment, Leander responded, his eyes meeting Brianna's with a faint smile, "Yep. I keep it a secret because you might be even better than I thought" "Finally, I've got the truth out of you. Exactly what I needed," Brianna, in excitement, whispered.Sensing a thick wave of desire filling the room, Leander's eyebrow raised. Just as the moment was unfolding, a loud phone ring interrupted, prompting Brianna to rush off to her bedroom to grab her phone.Shortly after, she returned to find Leander waiting.Catching sight of the new phone in Leander’s hand, Brianna’s eyes narrowed. "You promised to meet me last time you were here," she reminded him, trying to mask her rising anxiety. "Why haven't you followed through?" Leander's mischievous grin only added to h
