But unknown to Stella and Cole, someone was actually watching them from an unnoticeable place and even heard all their conversation. .........The next day spread out like a blanket, welcoming a whole new hope, and more things to focus on. In a particular familiar room, one could see a familiar lady sitting on her fancy huge bed, as she crossed her legs together, staring as if her mind was somewhere else. Stella sighed, absentmindedly rubbing the tip of her fingers. Many thoughts about Aiden were disturbing her to the extent she couldn't even focus on herself. Well, turns out to be true that she already gave in to Aiden, but how is that possible? Just within when?" I need to stop thinking about this," she told herself, shaking her head at the same time, and she took a deep breath. Just like that, she somehow managed to shut off all her thoughts about Aiden and got off the bed. It was time to use her time on better things! Stella walked to the dinner room, still in her
" No, it okay. This is none of your fault," Stella shook her head negatively, as she responded back to Harsley and went back to her seat." Huh?" Harsley was stunned and blinked her eyes multiple times, before she realised Stella was not going to hurt her or anything. " I said it not your fault," Stella repeated what she said earlier. Harsley just nodded upon hearing this but said nothing at all. After that, no one said anything, and the only thing that enveloped the whole dinning room was absolute silence! " Let's go shopping," Stella suggested the moment she was done with her food, and she dabbed her mouth corner with a colored tissue. " For real?" Harsley was also done with her food, and she pushed her empty dish aside. " Yeah." Stella nodded and stood up immediately. This was what she could think of as she desperately wanted to free her mind from all thoughts, most especially Aiden! " Okay Sis." Harsley also agreed and quickly vanished away from the dining room..
" Who are you?" Harsley was confused, and her eyes darted from Stella to the other person in front of them. " A peasant doesn't deserve to know me," the person standing in front of Stella, crossed her arms over her chest and curled her lips upward. She was actually referring to Harsley. Harsley frowned immediately and pointed to the person. " Who are you calling peasant? Do you know who I am?!" The person just glanced at Harsley and sneered, before she used her right hand to push Harsley aside. Damn! Harsley was dumbfounded and embarrassed! How could a bitch just ignore her words like that! " Long time no see Stella," the person smiled, but it was not a gentle smile, it was a smile full of hidden meanings. Stella gritted her teeth, scrunching her face. Now, she regretted coming to the mall. What an unfortunate day to encounter someone like this.... Without saying anything as she chose to turn a blind eye to the person and hissed. Then, she turned her back and dragg
" Miss Priscilla, am so sorry! I really had something to finish up, and that's why am late! Please, it won't repeat itself again." The person, who just rushed in now, went on his knees and started begging Priscilla like a little kid. Priscilla twitched her lips and slowly turned to face the man, who was begging her. " Right about time for you to arrive." " No Miss Priscilla, it not like that," the person denied, as more sweats covered the crown of his head. The person was none than the manager of the luxurious mall, and seeing how pitiful he appeared right now, people are starting to think just how powerful Priscilla is. " Isn't this the manager of this mall?" " Yeah, sure he is, but why is he kneeling down and begging Miss Priscilla?" " Maybe he offended her and doesn't want to lose his job. You know, I heard that the owner of this mall in partnership with Mr. Grey. So, technically Miss Priscilla also have a say in this mall." " Ohh, this is so.........I wonder just how pow
" Stella!!!" Priscilla was deeply annoyed and embarrassed, with how Stella thrashed her with harsh words! " Fuck! Isn't she scared of dying?! I can literally rip her into two with just an order!" She thought inwardly, as her nostrils start to flare....... " You are not fit to call my name! Hear that, it doesn't even sound nice from your mouth! You should take a break!" Stella hissed loudly, as she shot Priscilla a rude look and turned her back proudly, allowing her hair to tumbled over her shoulder. " You........." With gritted teeth, Priscilla lounged forward and immediately grabbed Stella's right arm, planning to hit her hardly. " Ah!" Shocked, Stella yelped loudly and widened her eyes. But before Priscilla could do anything, another person Immediately rushed into the mall. The person sudden rush startled almost everyone, and this even interrupted what Priscilla was about to do. " Please, don't try it!" The person shouted with heavy breaths and quickly ran over to where S
" What do you mean?!" Priscilla's face darkened immediately, and she squinted her eyes together. " Yes!" Mr. Jones nodded, as he looked around the whole mall. " Huh?" Harsley arched her brows. " I don't understand," she said, feeling confused. " What are you saying?! Am sure there must be a mistake somewhere, so please take your words back," Stella denied, not getting what the Mr. Jones meant, and she shook her head. Even the onlookers were shocked beyond words, as it doesn't feel real at all. This was when the manager wanted to stand up, as he knew Mr. Jones wasn't a person to joke around. His " yes" mean " yes" and his " no" means " no". So definitely, he knew what he said. But Mr. Jones already saw through his thought, so he was quick to stop him from standing up. " Remain in your position!" " Please....Mr. Jones,,,,,,,,," the manager immediately started begging. But Mr. Jones just ignored him and faced Stella. " This is what I want to tell you. You are now the new
Instantly, the news reached the air, stating that Stella Lucius has become the new owner of the prestigious mall, that was well known. This stunned everyone watching the news, as they couldn't believe it. But the people who were surprised the most were Cole and Lady Irish. They knew how Stella had been managing herself, so how come she was able to get a mall on her own? And it not just an ordinary mall, but a really great mall. It was just unbelievable! But despite all the happiness, someone was busy brooding and tugging her hair so hard! " This is not fair!!!" The person screaming, inhaling and exhaling sharply. " Princess, calm down," a man looking to be in his early forties, quickly ran to where the person was, tried to calm the person. " Don't tell me to calm down!" Priscilla barked furiously and even pushed her father away. She was so mad, that her face had turned red, and she was boiling. " This was not what you told me! You said you have become one of the owners of t
Within a blink of an eye, the weekend was over, and now, it time for the weekdays. In a dark familiar office, someone strolled in and placed a file on the desk. " Another bad report?" Aiden's eyes peered up from the eye glass he was wearing and closed the document he was reading. " Yes." Sam nodded immediately. " I don't think some believe you are still alive. Most now had a change of mind and think you been alive is just another baseless rumour. In fact, I think it the Scorpion leader's handiwork," he said, shaking his head, and he clasped his hands behind his back. Aiden just made a throaty chuckle and adjusted his eye glass, before he stood up." Have already been expecting this, so am not surprised. But It seems they have forgotten what an ordinary rumour can do."" What are we going to do now, Boss?" Sam wasn't worried, but if care is not taken, the underworld might really turn into something else! So, they had to stop the evil deeds and crime by all means! Aiden, who
" Then, it about what?" Lewis stood up calmly and stared deep into Hudson's eyes. Both people actually possessed the same eyes, as they both had hazel eyes. This was when Hudson's eyes flickered with something unknown, and he suddenly noticed something. " Who are you?" He asked again, this time with a solemn expression, finally calming himself down. Lewis also noticed this, but he sighed and lowered his head. " I am your father." He answered curtly. " How? I told you my father is dead!" Hudson still refused to believe Lewis and shook his head negatively. " Please, I hate lies!" " And so do I!!" Lewis snapped with a red rimmed eyes, as he lifted up his head. " Do you think am okay with lying to you and everyone?! I didn't die Hudson, it was all fake. It had a reason, and at the time, I couldn't trust anybody, but am sorry you suffered for it. It was all my fault, I am sorry." " What do you mean?" Hudson got confounded, and he blinked his eyes multiple times. " I didn't d
" What's going on?!" Startled with the sudden silence, Henry yelled as he turned his back and stopped what he was about to do. " Boss, we don't know what happened. He just suddenly went quiet and limp," the body guard carrying Hudson answered unhurriedly in a calm manner. Henry looked down at the immobile Hudson, and he shook his head. " So?" He scoffed and snorted loudly. " Do I look like I care? Fuck! I said throw him out!" The bodyguards weren't expecting this, but they had no right to say anything. They just quickly did what Henry told them, scurrying away, with the immobile and quiet Hudson. *Baam* " That's where you belong!" The bodyguard, who carried Hudson, threw him away like a garbage and stepped on him, before he turned away. The moment the bodyguards left, Hudson stood up and dusted himself slowly, with a gloomy look. He was devasted and couldn't believe what he just went through. He wanted to think, but his mind was already numb. Too much grief had overw
" The boss asked you to bring his suite now to the top floor!" Hudson's brows relaxed immediately, and he nodded gently. " Okay." He was familiar with the person at the other end of the line. Before he could hang up, the phone was snatched from the person at the other end, and a familiar voice rang inside Hudson's ears. " Bring the thick cap when you are coming! I will be needing it within an hour, so be fast! I don't want my babe to leave, or you will be dead for that!" *Beep beep* The call was hung up immediately. Hudson could only stared at his phone screen in a dumfounded manner. He couldn't believe his boss again. This was the habit of Henry, and Hudson was already used to it. He knew his boss was having a new chick again by now, and he was the one task with the responsibility of bringing or carrying the Jimmy hat. " Will my life ever be better?" Hudson wanted to cry so hard, but he couldn't. His life at this moment was really a sore spot for him. There were times h
Just then, something unanticipated and gruesome occurred! " Boss!" Mav frowned, the moment he saw a big shadow over them, and he immediately reversed the wheel without thinking of anything else. Instantly, Aiden who was pressing his phone also noticed something was amiss, and he became alarmed. Looking up, he saw a big truck, that seemed to have lost it break, and it was moving with a very fast pace towards them. " What's going on?" Cole sat up straight and widened his eyes out of shock and fear. " It coming towards us!" He yelled, with a trembling voice, and he turned to Mav. But Mav was also confounded at this moment. He was trying to manoeuver the car away from the path where the truck was coming, but it appears as if they were stuck. " Boss, we are stuck! The road is blocked behind us, and the path is too narrow! What are we going to do?!" Mav was frantic, but he still tried to bottle it up slightly. But of course, no one wanted to die ....... " Someone should do something!

Junior was displeased upon hearing this, and she wrinkled her nose. " What kind of stupid task is that?" She thought and immediately felt like voicing out her thought. " But why us boss?" She couldn't bring herself to ask that, so she just changed it into another question. Aiden looked up at Junior and noticed how displeased she was, but he cared less. " Because you guys are capable and people I can trust. If you know you can't do it, then you are free to leave." Aiden gave an answer to Junior's question and even threw an option to the two people standing in front of him. " No, am okay with that, boss." Chris stepped forward and agreed with the job Aiden gave to him. To him, he was comfortable with any job from Aiden, as long as he would be close to Aiden. Honestly, that was enough for him. Junior even became more annoyed and displeased. Now, she had no choice but to agree also, otherwise she won't be able to bear the consequence. " Junior, you have 10 seconds," said Aiden
Aiden didn't answer the leader of the gun men and just ignored him. " Marvelous boss, please accept me! I am sorry for my misdeeds! Such won't occur again! You don't know how much I admire you! I really admire you so much, please take me under you! You won't regret it!" The leader immediately ran after Aiden, before Aiden could walk out of the whole room totally. " Hey, get back!" Mav stepped forward and pushed the leader away just in time! " The Marvelous doesn't deal with people like you!" The leader halted and tried to balance himself. Upon hearing what Mav said, he became unhappy and sighed, lowering his head. " What! Are you kidding me?! Who the hell are you?! You can never be the Marvelous boss!!" The pretty scarred man, yelled, disagreeing with what Mav said, and his thought. It just not possible. No one even bothered to glance at the scarred man and just ignored him like a piece of thrash. " Give me a reason why I should take you under me?" Aiden stopped walking and
Just then, " Ah!!!!" The scarred man yelled with pain evident in his tone, and he gritted his teeth! " I decided to start with your left wrist........" Aiden said, as he crushed the scarred man's left wrist with his foot and shrugged before moving to crush the right wrist also. " Ahhhh! It hurt so much! Make it stop!" " I should make it stop? Is it painful?" Aiden acted innocent, and he tilted his head sideways. The scarred man nodded but couldn't say anything. By now, his forehead was drenched and covered with sweats. In fact, he was so greatly uncomfortable and just wished for the pain he was feeling to stop. Aiden lifted his foot from the scarred man's wrist, and the latter instantly heaved a sigh of relief. But in the next minute, a shrilling sound echoed loudly again! " My leg!" The scarred man shouted and shook his head! It was indeed unbearable for him. Aiden didn't care and just moved to crush two of his feet! Just like that! Everyone felt the pain the scarr
Just then, " Ah!" Stella held her hair, as she rushed downstairs and almost lost her balance. And she yelped. This caught Aiden's attention, and he looked up towards her. This time, his expression flickered into something unknown. " Aiden!" Stella called out, immediately her eyes meet Aiden's own, and they both stared at each other for some seconds, before the assistant dragged Stella forward. " Ouch! It painful!" Feeling hurt, she cried out and shut her eyes, as tears slipped down from her eyes. Seeing this, Aiden felt something stinging his heart, and he frowned deeply. He hated this! He hated seeing his woman in pain! He hated seeing his tears! He hated how helpless she looks right now! Aiden took a step forward, but he was stopped instantly by the commandos that was called by the scarred man. " Get lost!" Aiden looked away from those commandos and walked forward to meet Stella. " It seems you don't know where you are?! Who do you think you are to act like the
