The Return Of The Secret Billionaire Chapter 131
Parker Ryan was standing opposite to him, suspicious eyes staring at him. He wondered why he was there at his event, but what baffled him more than why was a matter of how. Nathan Anakin right in his domain, and for what reason? He waited patiently for him to gain consciousness and full recovery before asking again what he was doing there. Nathan paused, trying to understand why he had passed out. He remembered his plan of he was supposed to get a private conversation with Parker Ryan. Then he searched his environment and observe that he was in a different space entirely. Perhaps it were Parker Ryan's personal space, and that was a good thing. The room was vast with a billing interior setting neatly arranged just for the purpose of attraction. He was seated on a wide arm chair, Parker Ryan opposite him. What was he going to say? Either way, whenever he planned on what to do or say, he ended up doing the opposite anyway. He cleared his throat. "Good day to you, Parker Ryan," The o

A while later and Isla was inside and regretting her actions already. She knew that they were supposed to have been nice to her already, and yet it was just Tori that was with her, and was nice to her. Doris on the other hand, she was still quite angry at her for some reason. She said nothing to her all through her stay, and that nearly bothered Isla. But thanks to Tori, she was less cold.She spoke to her and made her less uncomfortable. Then the call came through. ****Isla didn't know what to do, but she was certain of one thing. Her father would never make any foolish decision at the moment. His secret was on the line and the only safe thing Nathan could do was to wait. At least for a few while, until they arrived there. They had already jumped into the back of a taxi, and suddenly, Doris wished the car would fly. Isla dialed his number again, "hi Nathan!" She called out, her voice nearly deafening. "There is something you can do. Call him!"When she advised, the ladies in the

When Nathan reached home, he began to narrate his tale. Luckily for him, they had been just around the corner waiting for him. He uttered no words until they arrived home. Tori was the first to start asking questions. "What happened? Tell us everything!" "You were running, did Parker Ryan let you go scot free?" Doris asked, and she paused for him to catch his breath and sit down. "Nathan, you need to start talking already." Isla said nothing, but she didn't even need to say anything. The look on her face explained it all. She was worried, then anxious and then worried again. Not only for Nathan, but for her father. He must have been very shocked. She hoped there wouldn't be any sort of complications from his stage of cancer judging by what had happened that day. That was all she could do... Hope. Finally, Nathan was ready to start spilling. Immediately, his mind played back to what had happened and he felt like it had been a dream. He started narrating everything, and they surpris

Isla was seated angrily, not speaking to either of them. Nathan said nothing, and Doris and Tori apparently had some important discussion to make because they went inside after a while, leaving just frowny Isla and quiet Nathan. Time went by for a while until Isla decided to break the silence. "You're not even going to ask what happened? You and the rest of them are just going to act so quietly like nothing happened?" "That's why we're not going to ask." Nathan said and saw her frown. "You're still angry and you need a while to breath. So we're just waiting patiently." She signed realizing that he had been right. "Well we still have to discuss about Manuel." She said and just as they were going to continue with their discussion, there was a knock on the door. Nathan's brows furrowed and he wondered who could have been at the door. He silently hoped it hadn't been his weird fake friend. When he got there to his surprise, a frowny Parker Ryan was standing at the entrance staring at

Tori had no other option that to fulfill the wishes of her uncle. If was better if she went to meet him, than he coming to find her which could only mean one thing and it wouldn't be a good thing. Arriving at his house, the environment felt foreign to her. She tried a pose of confidence but it failed everytime she remembered the evil dear Fernando was capable of. She decided to get it off her mind and focus on the present. Fernando had not be around and so the maid told her to relax in the living room, then asked her if she wanted anything to eat or drink. "Oh no thanks, but I'm good." Tori replied to the woman who then left quietly. She heaved in a deep sigh and her mind went over to the time Nathan had his accident. She failed to accept the fact that her family member had been responsible for everything bad that occurred in his life and family's life. And then there was the issue of his in-laws again. They weren't good people. He was surrounded in the midst of evil people. The b

Darkness came like the thick velvet curtains of the theatre. It was as if the daytime had been one part of a play and the rest was to come after this intermission of night. She let her eyes wander the furniture, the audience to the dramas played out in that room, to the highs and lows of emotions, and to the love that dwelt in that house. As usual she wandered to the window to gaze at the stars, to peek into the universe... the spectacle that was given when all else was taken... as if commanding her to look and feel both her smallness and her oneness with something greater. The dark room was like a place out of time, a place to rest without consequence. It was there in that way was a sanctuary, a place to recharge and forget the things the world said had to be done. It wasn't that she couldn't or wouldn't, but rather that she needed that sense of stepping out of the craziness for a while. So, in the darkness that stole even her own form, she was content to let the night pass and awa

Owen frowned as a thought played on his mind. "Mother, what exactly is your plan?" He was pacing around the room, arms akimbo. "There is a grown woman down here in our house!" He yelled out unable to contain the fear that resided in his heart. With a wave of her hand, Evelyn replied him. "Relax, it's only going to be for a couple of hours. And then, everything will be just fine. It depends though." She said, eyes fixated on her phone. "On what?" Owen asked. "On whether Regina misses her daughter or not." Replied Evelyn. Then she sighed. "Listen, if she calls me on time, we strike our plan. If not, then... Well whatever! But, I'll wait a few hours longer, tell her I heard from a trusted source that she was searching for her daughter, then we stage up a rescue mission and she trusts us and then... Voila!""It sounds so easy now that you've mentioned it. But still... This is a very complicated plan!" "Oh jeez! Don't you want to end up with that woman again?" Evelyn shot him a fierce g

When Fernando saw her, he feared the woman had come to give him more trouble again. Nothing good had ever came out from Evelyn snooping around in his vicinity. "I take it that you're not here to join me for dinner," he said, trying hard to hide the anger behind his tone. For some reason, a fool had thought it would be better if she was given some sort of powers. Despite knowing the type of person this woman was exactly! He hated that fact and want he hated the most was that she could do and undo now that she has powers. He was starting to picture her as some super villain or one of those evil queens in fantasy books when she cut him off with a question. He didn't hear her though and so he asked again, carefully so he doesn't hurt her feeling. "I was only asking, Fernando. It's been ages since you promised me exactly what I've been demanding from you. It's starting to anger me, really." She repeated, but he still wasn't following. His brows arched and he stared as if she were some

He glanced at his watch and frowned. He was late. He picked up the pace, almost running in an attempt to beat time. He had promised his lady that he would be on time and now he was running late.He finally got to the main road and took his place at the bus stop. After waiting for almost two minutes– two extra wasted minutes of his time– a taxi arrived and after a brief negotiation, they were on their way.His phone rang out from his coat pocket and he already knew who would be calling. "I know, I know, this isn't what I planned either. I'm sorry.""You were supposed to be here ten minutes ago!" She complained over the phone."I am really, truly sorry honey. I'll be there in three minutes… five minutes top.""Get here in two minutes!""I'm in a taxi, I'll be there soon." After he hung up, he noticed the cab driver staring at him through the mirror. "Wife's troubles huh?""Yeah.""I can relate. My Mrs is always stressing me out. But there's nothing we can do about it.""Yeah." He repl

"Yes?""I am detective Sam Rogers, and with me is my partner.""James West." They introduced themselves and showed him their badges."How may I help you fine officers?""Mr Thomas Castiel, you are under arrest for the crime of murder on Mr Anakin's late parents.""Are you serious? You are arresting me?""Yes sir. Please sir, I would advise you to come with us quietly to avoid any embarrassment.""Officers, what is going on here?" Evelyn questioned as she walked in.""Nothing ma'am, we would just like to invite your husband for questioning at the station.""Station? Please, what is going on here?""Calm down ma'am, you'll know his offense when he gets to the station.""Do you have any idea what of you're doing? You had the audacity, you had the guts to come into my house….and arrest me?""I'm afraid so. I would also advise you to limit your words sir, because anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law.""Court of law, what the hell are you talking about?""Ju

Frost grew over the windows even as the duvet kept her warm. Isla watched the ice-crystals grow for a while, allowing her brain to be empty, content to exist and be. The morning would bring the beauty of the ice for sure, that crunch under boot and the bold greeting cold air brings. Yet between now and watching her breaths rise as new white-puffed clouds there will be a very cold night. The kind that only stops at the doors of the well-made houses. The cold weather that seeped through any thin cloth to drain the soul, instead feeds the soul of those well wrapped in warm layers of well insulated fabrics.It was the same type of coldness that reached into one's bones, as if their heart were a door left wide open to the icy wind, slamming only to open again. The only thing to do would be to keep moving, keep heading toward home and the steady warmth of the hearth. There was a lot on her mind that night. And she even tried her best to get Nathan off her mind. She wouldn't just stop thinki

Evelyn met with Regina that day. Not for anything else besides their main discussion. She had purposely visited Regina and had the meeting scheduled at her house. She loved being a wedding guest. It's as if rockets have been lit beneath the soul. There is such love right out in the open. Everyone feels free to let their happy flags fly. Cynics are silent at last. Birdsong becomes the music of the quiet reflections. Souls are united. To have an invitation to such an event is a blessing indeed.She saw the woman from afar, shivering in fear. Fear of what though? Well perhaps it was because the head of the Queens was right at her house! She gave a satisfying grin at the moment and continued with her discussion. "Well, so you see why it is important for us to meet up?" She said, a satisfying smile working its way over to her cheeks. Her face had been plastered with bright heavy makeup. Again. Just on purpose. She ignored Regina's shivering and continued. "So we can discuss the wedding

Nathan is alone, thinking about his life when Doris enters. She tries to confront him, but he just wasn't buying. He was terrified of a whole lot of things. The emotion of our reunion sealed as a perfect photograph in my soul.He had felt so very angry. He'd felt so deeply bloody angry with the universe, with God. Yet that is so unfair. Everything he had struggled for is exactly what he asked to do. He had en route to achieve what he set out to achieve. The pain that was to come with it, the brutal brutal suffering of his soul was necessary. There was no other way to learn what he had learned. The anger is because he want to be with her. He want to be with you so much but he had to keep his own counsel, his own direction with only the influence of the divine ether that came to the artist. Artists would get that. They've felt what he felt. But there must come a time, a day, a moment when he would get to say he'd done what he set out to do. He really hoped so. Because that was when we g

Nathan opened the door for Tori to go in and she smiled at his portrayal of a gentleman."Thank you." "You're welcome."She walked in with a small bag in her hand."Here let me help you.""Oh no it's fine, I got it." She replied smiling."I don't like the idea of inconveniencing you in this way."Tori had insisted on following Nathan home after he dropped her at her place. She claims she couldn't leave him alone and let depression take over him."Mr Anakin, I'd like you to know that I have no secret agenda behind this, I just want to make sure you're okay by all times." Tori explained."Why are you saying that? I know you have no hidden agenda Tori.""Then let me be with you in such a crucial time sir… as a confidant." She said with so much sincerity in her tone.Nathan sighed, "as you wish."Now they were together in the apartment, Tori had insisted on preparing dinner but he plainly refused, he still had his mind on Doris and he wondered what kind of things the abductors would be

The door of the station pushed open and barging into the room was Evelyn with the other important women of Ettavile as her minions.Her heels made loud noises as she strolled confidently into the D.P.O's office."Ma'am you can't go in there." A police officer stopped her."My daughter has been kidnapped and I know who did it so move!" She yelled at him, pushing him away from the entrance.Inside the office was Nathan and Tori who had rushed back to the station after their conversation with Evelyn."I know who the culprit is! Which station is it?" Evelyn yelled at Nathan."Uhm, I can't seem to remember the name… the huh.. the one located just at the end of delmer street.""Be there by the time I get there.""Wait what?"Evelyn hung up the phone then faced her group members."We're going to the police station ladies.""What for?" One of the women asked."To report a little rat."Nathan jumped on his feet and picked up his jacket."What's going on?" Tori asked."We have to go back to the

They had no other option than to meet Doris and her husband. The gang stole Drew from us a piece at a time. Every week they pushed him slightly further until not only did he have no morals, he thought that way of thinking was a desirable freedom. His family, we who truly loved him, became his enemy. He looked at us like we were vile to him. Then one day I found him shaking in his bedroom, crying like the sun had been stolen from the sky, his hands slick with another's blood. That's the last time I ever saw the real Drew, in that moment of remorse. After that he sunk so low into his new m.o. that no-one got close unless they were bringing news of the next gang order.Nobody joins a gang without being a lost soul first. No-one goes to a monster for guidance unless it's their only option. Yet I can't underestimate this gang boy, however young he is. Until the head of any serpent is removed, you ignore the body at your peril. Given his youth he is perhaps more reachable than an older boy

Owen has nothing, he talks to his wife. He called his mother, they agree to beg Nathan and Doris. Incels, if women were robots then you could push their buttons and make them dispense sex in the way a coffee machine gives coffee. They aren't robots, or fem-iods, or foids, but people. Your hatred of women shows up in who you are, thus at an instinctive level, below the conscious brain, women will fear you. This fear is there to protect them from having sex with a man who does not love them. Women are people. Their "sex" is a form of bonding with the one they are in love with, male or female. People also tend to love a person who loves themselves, who is at ease with who they are. So maybe work on yourself? Build empathy instead of entitlement and hate? Personally, I only have sex with a guy when I love him. Not a robot.The "Incel" according to the Oxford Dick-tionary of "we know everything about you assholes who hide behind fake names and avatars," is short for "Incompetent Celibates
