The Monarch's Retribution Chapter 28 - A familiar acquaintance
"And you may be?" Nicolas asked coldly as he firmly removed the stranger's grip from his shoulder before turning to face the man. He came face to face with a tall and lanky young man who looked to be around the age of 25 or lesser. He had an unremarkable face which was currently staring at Nicolas with a disdainful expression on his face. "Fred Davies." The tall and lanky man answered, and the traces of pride in his voice could not be hidden. Nicolas could easily tell that he was from a wealthy family and a based on the way he spoke and his manner of mannerisms. Nicolas noticed that the moment the lanky man announced his identity, the customers present in the barber's salon all had expressions of surprise appear on their faces. It was obvious that they were intimidated by Fred's impressive background. However, Nicolas did not care a bit about Fred's impressive background whatsoever. He only wanted to get back to his villa as soon as possible. "What do you want?" Nicolas asked frigid

There was no mistaking it; the dashing young man who drove the expensive Mercedes Benz sports car was Victor Iil, Patrick Schick's right hand man!There was no way Nicolas would mistake Victor's face.

The Monarch's Retribution Chapter 30 - Suspicions
Standing in the same elevator as the man who was suspected to have a hand in his mother's death was not easy for Nicolas. However, with superior control over his emotions, he managed to control his facial expression and remain silent.He routinely looked at the pudgy vice president of Limbra Inc. with a stoic expression on his face as the elevator ascended to his destination. Just as he was about to sneak another look, the pudgy vice president who was dutifully typing away on his expensive smartphone lazily kept his phone in his pocket before turning to stare at the only person in the elevator with him."Oh! Hello there!" Jack Harvey greeted in an amicable tone, his beady-like eyes holding a tinge of jealousy as he scanned Nicolas' handsome features. He wasn't too good-looking himself, therefore he was extremely jealous at the young man's handsome features."I haven't seen you around before. Are you new here?" Jack Harvey asked suspiciously as he stared at Nicolas. "I'm new here, vic
The Monarch's Retribution Chapter 31 - Mr. Idris
"What do you think you're doing there, standing like you are lost in the middle of a bustling city?" a voice which belonged to a male asked Nicolas, his voice laced with irritation. "Ah. Sorry about that." Nicolas replied in a calm voice, his faux orange irises subtly observing the features of the man with the irritated voice. The man looked to be in his late forties and was tall, his height easily measuring above six feet. He had brown hair which was currently cut lower than Nicolas', and equally brown eyes, which made him look pleasantly handsome. He was brown skinned and had a physique that spoke unspeakable hours of training in the gym. From his physique alone, which was partially concealed by the loose blue shirt and black slacks he wore, Nicolas surmised that he must be a gym freak. "Are you new here? I haven't seen your face around here." The man asked with a frown on his face as he studied Nicolas' extremely handsome features. "Yes, I am new here. I recently transferred f

The Monarch's Retribution Chapter 34 - Flames of Retribution
The hours went by uneventfully, with Nicolas being fully focused on his job, and soon enough, it was 12 p.m., the designated time for the meeting of the upper echelons at Limbra Inc.Of course, it was also the time that Nicolas plan would be set in motion.Nicolas kept on typing away on his monitor, but consciously kept tabs on the time on his black wristwatch. The moment the time on his wristwatch read 12:05 p.m., he stood up from his work desk and excused himself to Mr. Idris before making his way out of the accounting department.However, Nicolas did not make his way to the toilet as he asked to do so. Instead, he took the stairs all the way to the 10th floor, carefully avoiding the scrutiny of the CCTV cameras installed in the hallways of Limbra Inc.In less than five minutes, he was already on the 10th floor, and just two floors separated him from the floor where Jack Harvey, the vice president of Limbra Inc., office was.He calmly made his way into an empty and abandoned store ro
