The Lost Consortium Heir Accusations
“Beg me before I rethink my actions,” Mike said, causing Williams to burst out laughing,“You’re a joker,” Williams said and looked around him. He noticed that Stella was walking towards them.“Honey, what are you doing over there? Standing with this wicked man,” Stella said, gritting her teeth in anger.“I was just telling him about how delusional he is,” Williams lied. Mike was shocked at his words. He didn't even have the guts to believe that he was trying to talk to Mike reasonably.“Delusional?” Mike scoffed and decided not to join them in their silly game today. He walked towards his car, but Williams was enraged by the way Mike acted so nonchalantly.“My honest problem is how you get these cars! Your new master, right? How did you get such a job?” Williams was trying to gain the public’s attention. Mike narrowed his eyes, and face-slapped himself, saying, “When are you going to get tired of these games? Always dragging this?” “If you’re not tired, then I can play the game wit

"Young master, this event is very important for your grandfather. He wants to show you off to his friends and probably even introduce you to their daughters," Paul said, causing Mike to arch his brows."Their daughters? For what purpose? I have important things to face at the moment. I love the way things are going with me, Stella, and Williams." Mike paused and sat on the sofa next to him before continuing."If everyone knows about me now, the chase will no longer be this elating," Mike added."Sir, this anniversary party is not a big one, trust me. The staff aren't even attending it as they'll be working that day. The old man organized it for just himself and his friends," Paul informed. Mike furrowed his brows, momentarily confused."Why is it called an anniversary, then? Is everyone not supposed to be celebrating?" "The old man doesn't like many crowds at parties because they remind him of so many tragic events. So whenever he has no choice but to celebrate something, it's usuall

He didn't want to be late for the event.James was surprised that he didn't even know what to say. Mike walked into the elevator with Paul.

At first, Mike was short of words, but he smiled as he realized that he could be able to spend more time than he thought on the anniversary."Come

The old man was beaming with a smile as he introduced Theresa to Mike. “And Theresa, meet my grandson, Mike Duncan, heir of Duncan conglomerates,” Matthew said.“Please, the both of you, take off your masks,” the old man said. Theresa took off her mask first, and even though the light in the room was dull, her facial features were sharp. Mike was stunned by the amount of beauty in just one person. He took off his mask causing a smile to curve on Nathan's lips,“You look just like your late father,” he said. There was a brief silence between them.“I’m sorry if I sour your mood,” the old man apologized for talking about Mike’s late father at an event where everyone should only speak of good things because it was a moment to be happy.Theresa forced a smile on her face and stretched her hand forward to shake Mike.“Good day, gentleman,” she said, shaking hands with him.“You know, the both of you look good together,”“Em, Grandpa, I want to use the restroom,” Theresa cut in before Nath
The Lost Consortium Heir Surprise gone wrong
“Why is she not here yet?” Mike muttered as he paced back and forth on the luxurious rooftop of a hotel. He walked towards the edge and gazed down at the city, wondering why Stella, his wife, hadn’t arrived at the address he sent her earlier. For 6 months, Mike has been working day and night, saving to pay for this VIP rooftop for a night. He planned on surprising his wife. Gazing at the setting of the place, Mike was sure that Stella would like it because she loved luxury and that's why he went as far as planning all of this although he was left with no penny after. Mike grinned as he walked back to the table for two that were set in the middle of the rooftop with a big TV screen in front of it. He checked his wristwatch for the time and was surprised to see that it was already 15 minutes past 8. “Why is she late? Did something happen?” He thought as he dialed her phone number. He sat on one of the chairs, waiting for her to answer, but she didn’t. Mike’s heart suddenly began to
The Lost Consortium Heir Three years of Pretend
Mike gazed at the tall, well-built man in front of him. He couldn't comprehend what a man was doing in the hotel room his wife called him to. "Baby, who is that? Please tell me our food is here. I'm famished." Stella's voice fell into Mike's ear, causing him to furrow his brows. "Baby?" He thought and tried to peep into the room but he couldn't, "Williams..." Stella called the man's name when she didn't get a response. "Oh honey, come over here," Williams said, causing Mike to swallow hard. He gazed at the door, waiting to see the woman's face. "Baby, who...." Stella was stunned the moment her eyes fell on her husband. Mike couldn't bring himself to utter a word. He was still in shock. "What are you doing here?" Stella asked abruptly, with a frown on her face. Mike shook his head as he took his phone out of his pocket. He quickly scrolled to her text and showed her, asking, "What are you doing here, Stella?" "How is that any of your business?" she sneered. Williams smirked a
The Lost Consortium Heir The phone messages
He immediately lost the ability to breathe for a second. He recalled two nights back when Stella came back, complaining about how her waist was hurting, “Should I run you a bath and massage your body when you’re done?” He asked. “Yes! Don’t let the water be too hot. Mix it well,” she nagged. After Mike prepared the bath for her, she entered the bathroom, leaving her phone behind. Numerous messages popped on her phone screen. “I hope you enjoyed today. Next time, we’d go on for hours,” He read when suddenly, Stella dragged her phone from behind. “Why are you looking through my phone?” She asked, arching her brows. “Who was that?” Mike asked. He couldn’t comprehend her text. “That was my colleague at work. We were paired to do a project together,” she said and hissed before taking her phone to the bathroom. Snapping back into the present, he asked in a low voice, “How long has this been going on?” Stella didn’t respond. “Was it Williams that sent you that text two days
The Lost Consortium Heir A taste of wealth
Mike slowly opened his eyes to face a white ceiling. The sunlight emanating from the window gave the room a sense of comfort, but the loud noise and chatter irked him. Mike turned to his left slowly; he wasn’t only feeling pain in his head but all over his body. He turned to his right and caught sight of a drip fixed on his hand. “Am I at the hospital?” He thought as he tried to sit up. “Sir, please, you need to rest,” a lady in her mid-twenties, wearing a nurse uniform, said. “W…” He tried to speak, but the dryness of his throat prevented him from saying a word. “What am I doing here?” He asked as he sat up, mustering all his strength. Trying to recall what had happened, he felt a sharp pain in his head, causing him to growl. “Sir, you were rushed into the hospital last night by a driver and have lost so much blood, you can’t leave the hospital in this condition,” As she spoke, Mike was removing the drip fixed to his hand. “I have to leave,” He said, knowing he had no money

First court hearing
Mike got back to the villa. He was quiet all through. His first guess of the kidnappers was Williams, but unfortunately, it was Raymond and Timothy.Thinking about Williams, his phone rang. He took his phone out and saw that it was a call from Martin,"Hello?" He answered, sternly."Mr. Duncan, the court session will begin tomorrow, as this is a matter of urgency," Martin said, causing Mike to sit up before arching his brows."Have Williams and his lawyer been informed?" Mike asked."Yes sir, the lawyer insists that his client will not pay the compensation," Martin said, leaving Mike shocked momentarily."How foolish, anyway... What time would it be tomorrow?" Mike inquired as he loosened the tie that was hanging on his neck."11 am sir," Martin said."Okay," Mike responded before ending the call. With a smug smile on his face, he walked into the bathroom and turned on the shower, letting the water wash over him.After he was done, he settled into black sweatpants and a grey t-shirt.

Hospital
"what? How are they finding us?" Raymond asked as he moved closer to Mike, "Do you have anything with you?" He asked and dragged Mike up.Mike couldn't move an inch and due to Raymond angry, he didn't evacuate the building. He was eager to take Mike with him."You son a bitch! You have a tracker with you right! I was too easy going with you," He said in a range and tried carrying Mike along with him but Mike had so much weight, especially now that he couldn't feel his legs and hand.Biting his lips in anger, he decided to leave Mike alone in the building, he didn't want to get caught but unfortunately, the moment he turned to leave, some men on black uniform were already standing behind him."Take your hands to the air!" One if the policeman said causing Raymond to swallow hard. He turned left and right and found no escape route, having no choice, he went down on his knees,"Take him to the station now!" One of the policeman said. Two men took held Raymond's hand and dragged him like

Slowly, Mike opened his eyes to see that he was in a neat room, better than the room he stayed in a few minutes ago."You're up?" The voice fell into his ear, causing him to swallow hard before asking,"Where... Where am I?" His body was arching all over, but he tried to remain calm."We changed location, dear. They found us, which is almost impossible," Raymond said, causing Mike to realize that it could be the message he sent to Paul.Now, he has no idea where he was. "Who are you?" Mike asked,"You've seen me before, right? I know! But I want you to do something for me, okay?" He said, causing Mike to arch his brows before asking,"What do you mean?" Mike tried struggling to get to his feet but he couldn't, causing him to arch his brows."It's no use trying to stand up. I figured that the ropes were causing bruises on your hand, so I decided to use the modern method," Raymond explained"And what method is that?" Mike asked. He was wondering what they did to him and still trying to

Ex boss
“Timothy?” Mike said in shock. He didn’t expect to see his formal boss,“You son of a bitch! Do you think you can make me lose my job and go free? You must be joking!” Timothy said and pushed Mike to the ground, making his head face the ground. He dragged his hand backward and untied his shoelace. He immediately used it to tie his hand and screamed,“He’s over here, boys!” In 30 seconds, more than four men surrounded them. Timothy stood to his feet and let them handle Mike; he then threw a slap on one of their faces before saying in a rage, “Should I help you do your job? What are you being paid for? Huh? If Raymond finds out about this, then you’re gone!” He said, mentioning the name Raymond again, causing Mike, who had his eyes closed, to immediately open them, wanting to know who Raymond was.“This time, make sure you lock the door to his room. I don’t want this to be messed up,” Timothy said, causing the men to respond in unison,“Yes, boss!”They took Mike to a different room, u

"He's clean; there's no phone with him," the man who searched Mike informed, causing Mike to let out a long sigh, one that he didn't know he was holding."Okay, now get him into the car"Mike was dragged into another car. Two men sat beside him, each one with a gun in their pocket. The driver couldn't stop gazing at him through the front mirror of the car."Cover his face," He immediately instructed. Mike swallowed hard as they took a black sack and put it over his face, saying,"Now you close your eyes"Soon, they arrived at a location. The sound of silence was overwhelming. "Where is this?" Mike finally asked, arching his brows. They tried dragging Mike down from the car, but Mike was strong-willed. He sat still and asked again, "Where is this place?" Inside him, he was terrified, but physically; he pulled a straight face, not wanting to reflect his emotions."Will you shut up and comply, or we'll be forced to drag you?" One of the men said, causing Mike to narrow his eyes."Wher
