The Return of Billionaire Quincy chapter 104
The next day, Kohler woke up with all smiles, but she didn't meet Alexander in bed.That would have been annoying if he hadn't had time for her, but she decided to let it slide; since he might have something else to do.She got down from the bed and walked up to the bathroom to have her bath. And she took as much time as she wanted while in the bathroom.The moment she was done and stepped out of the bathroom, a knock came on her door.“Who is it?” She asked as she wrapped a towel around her body and then walked up to her door.“It's me, ma’am.” The maid responded respectfully.Then Kohler opened the door with a questioning look.“Madam Deborah is presently in the living room. She asked to see you.” The maid informed her.“Deborah?” She said under her breath, wondering why Deborah was there to see her.She was hoping that there was no trouble looming around or anything because she had had enough of them.“Alright, I'll be there soon.” “Okay, ma’am.” The maid spoke and bowed a little

Quincy headed to work and on getting to his company, he phoned Lauren.“Hey, Lauren. Got any spare time in the afternoon?” “Uhm… yeah, sure. Want me to come over to your company?”“Yes please,” Quincy replied.“Alright then.” When the phone call ended, Quincy leaned back on his chair and thought about how life would be after he had exerted his revenge on the Walter family, including their extensions.He felt life was going to be good, but he knew he had to pick up something that would be interesting as all that he had occupied his mind with would be gone soon.A knock came on his for and the door knob was pulled down before the door opened up.Scott walked into his tab and greeted.“Good morning.”“Good morning, Scott. What's the schedule for the day?” Quincy asked, staring at Scott.“You have a meeting with about three people in the space of two hours. That's three different meetings. Do you need me to cancel one?”“No. I can handle that. Besides, each meeting might not last up to

Quincy shook his head off from the weird encounter he had with Mr. Prescott and instructed Scott to set up his next meeting.He wasn't going to let some weird encounter make him eat away his time thinking about all he meant.At least, he was still going to get all the answers to his questions in a week when he attended the event, so it was no big deal.Fortunately, he had the two next meetings with ease and it went well without having to speak about strange things.“Scott, I need you to put an eye on a package I'm expecting,” Quincy spoke as he picked up his suit jacket and wore it.“Okay. What kind of package?” Scott asked just to know the details of what he should be expecting.“I don't know. But it is from Mr. Prescott. And it has to be handled carefully just as he said.” Quincy said.“Okay. You got me.” Scott assured him and Quincy smiled.“I should be back in thirty minutes or an hour,” he informed as he checked his wristwatch.“Alright then.”Quincy turned around and headed for
The Return of Billionaire Quincy chapter 107
Quincy and Scott had been staring at the package on his table for a while in silence, wondering what exactly it could be.“I think we should just check it out. But I'll have to do that carefully.” Quincy finally broke the silence.“You have to be careful. Are you sure we don't need experts to do this?” Scott suggested, looking a little anxious.“No, we don't. We can't afford to let anyone know about something that was probably meant to be classified. On the brighter side, it might not be a timer bomb.” Quincy said as he stared at the package.“Okay, you're right. We should open it.”“Let's do this,” Quincy uttered and slowly pulled the package box cover open.The moment he was able to open it up, he looked away for a while, but noticing that nothing happened, he and Scott turned their heads back to take a look at the package.“A wristwatch?” Scott spoke with a puzzled face.“I'm as perplexed as you are,” Quincy said under his breath, although he could still be heard.“So, is it a gift

While Quincy was trying to wrap his head around what had just happened which seemed more like magic to him, a call from Scott interrupted him.“Yeah. What were you able to get?” Quincy asked as he placed the wristwatch on the table.“It’s Sunrise Hospital. The directions have been sent as a text, just in case you might need them.” Scott responded.“Okay then. Until tomorrow. Thanks.” He appreciated him and ended the call.Quincy then went through his text and saw the directions to the hospital. He hoped that tomorrow wouldn’t be too late to go to the hospital because he wasn’t certain of how fatal the injury was. It could have been a light injury which would only get him to be discharged easily.He let out a sharp breath and stared back at the wristwatch.“I think I’ll just prefer to wear your hours to the event.” He uttered and placed it back into its package.Then he took it up to his bedroom with him and gently placed it on the bedside table.Quincy pulled off his clothes and went

Lauren had finally agreed to do what Quincy asked of her, but just that she hadn’t told him yet. She wanted to see how it was going to work out, first.“Yeah, just one glass will do.” She said to the bartender.“Okay! Although, I can’t guarantee that you will stick to your rule because it’s Martini!” The bartender said, with a smile.“And what’s so special about Martini?” Lauren uttered and rolled her eyes.“Hmmm. I see you might need something strong. You don’t look like you’re in a good mood.”“Look. It’s either you keep your mouth zipped up and serve me my drink or I walk out of your bar.”“Okay, okay. Easy. I’ll just serve your drink.” The bartender said and then went ahead to make her what she ordered.Not long after, Alexander came down the stairs and she spotted him even before he got to the bottom of the stairs.“You were here all along?” She asked, wondering why he was coming from right there.“Yeah. I kind of needed some space, you know. And I couldn’t think of a better plac

Quincy was driving back to his company and he kept on pondering on the reason Mr. David warned him to stay away from the E.C.E Project. And how that was enough reason to stare at him, looking horrified.~flashback~“It might seem so nice. You might feel so privileged, but at the end of it, you get hurt and will no longer be independent just the way you desire it.”~back to reality~Everything confused him all the more. He had gone to see him just to clarify things; especially the reason he looked at him that way the other night.But going to see him this morning only made things more complicated, and Mr. David wasn't willing to say more.He had threatened to call in the security.In less than an hour, he got to his company and headed to his office immediately.“Welcome.” Scott greeted him and Quincy only made a dry acknowledgement.“Is anything wrong?” Scott asked out of concern.“Scott, I don't know if you ask me. But all I know is that there's a lot of confusing things regarding the

Quincy, Scott, and Lauren clinked their glasses and chuckled as they raised them to drink.“Whoa! Tastes nice.” Quincy uttered, feeling pretty good.“Victory tastes nice,” Lauren added.“I'd like to take my leave now. I've got some other things at the office to take care of.”“Alright, Scott.” Quincy permitted and sipped the wine again.Scott smiled and excused himself while Lauren and Quincy stayed back.“I hope you edited out your name. The recording had Alexander calling your name.” “Yes. I edited it out.” Lauren confirmed with a smile.“So, Alexander is practically into a great debt and at least, Kohler knows who she's married to. We have completed our mission.”“Exactly. Let's hear what the news says. They got a good story.” Lauren urged and they turned on the TV._*” It's been heard that Alexander Darwin, one of the richest businessmen in the U.S.A. has hit rock bottom in his business due to an investment rejection. And I have two gentle businessmen here with me to discuss what

Chapter 166Kohler slowly stirred awake the next morning to the soft strains of music drifting through the air. Her mind, still foggy with sleep, searched for the familiar warmth of Quincy beside her, but the space in the bed was cold and empty. Confused, she opened her eyes, blinking away the haze of dreams. As her gaze adjusted, something unexpected caught her attention—rose petals, scattered across the bed in delicate patterns of red. Her heart skipped a beat. She sat up, her fingers brushing over the soft petals, a surprised smile forming on her lips. The roses didn’t just cover the bed; they formed a trail on the floor, leading out of the bedroom like a path designed to guide her somewhere.Curiosity piqued, Kohler swung her legs off the bed and stood, her bare feet padding softly across the floor. The music played softly in the background, its romantic melody weaving into the air like a whisper meant just for her. Her heartbeat quickened, and she followed the trail of rose peta

Chapter 165Lauren stiffened in her seat, her eyes narrowing as she recognized Talia. Damien stood immediately, stepping in front of Lauren protectively. “Talia, this isn’t the time,” he said, his voice firm but calm.Talia ignored him, her eyes locked on Lauren. “I should have known you’d go crawling to her the moment I was out of the picture,” she sneered. “But you’re making a mistake, Damien. You’re supposed to be with me!”Damien clenched his jaw, frustration rising. “You need to leave. Now.”Talia took a step closer, her gaze flickering between Damien and Lauren. “You think she’s better than me?” she spat. “You think she’ll stick by you the way I did? She’ll break your heart.”Lauren stood up, her eyes steady and calm. “Talia, this is between Damien and me. I understand that you’re upset, but barging in like this won’t change anything.”Talia’s face twisted in anger. “You think you’re so special? You’re nothing, Lauren. Nothing compared to what Damien and I had.”Damien moved clo

Chapter 164Darius studied Kohler for a moment, his expression hard to read. The tension between them hung in the air like a thick fog, both of them playing a delicate game of manipulation and trust. "I'll be the judge of that," he replied, his voice calm but sharp, like the edge of a blade.Kohler chuckled lightly, masking the slight tremor that threatened to creep into her voice. "Fair enough," she said. "But you know I wouldn't be here if I didn't have what it takes."Darius took a step closer, his gaze narrowing. "We'll see." He glanced over at Quincy, who remained motionless in the backseat, supposedly unconscious. "You’ve done well to bring him here. Now, let’s see if you can handle what comes next."Kohler swallowed hard but nodded, reminding herself to keep calm. Quincy had drilled into her the importance of staying in control. "Of course," she said, standing tall.Darius gestured to one of the men, and he stepped forward with a syringe filled with a clear liquid. "This," Dari

Finally! Darius was ready to meet with Kohler as he had trusted her well enough. He had sent poison to her and told her to induce it in Quincy’s drink, and that’s only when he could trust her.“Is everything set?” Quincy asked Kohler.“Yes. I’m all set.” She responded. “Wow. The color looks just perfect on your body. He is going to fall for this.” Kohler chuckled.“I know, right? When he gets caught, he would never put his loyalty to a bad man.” Quincy said with a smirk. “Alright, it’s time to go,” Quincy said, then they left the house, and Quincy was laid in the backseat of his car.Kohler then got into the driver’s seat and drove off to the location to which she was asked to come over. The ride was a little long, and the only reason he would do that was because the place would be a secluded area.That was the best kind of place for them to carry out operations like that.“Just ensure you do not act tense. You have to be as fluid as possible.” Quincy lectured her, and she nodded. “A

A few days passed, and a day came when Damien’s grandfather called, and said he wanted to see both him and Lauren. “What do you think he might want to say?” Lauren asked him, out of curiosity. “Well, I don’t know. But I’m hoping it’s good news.” Damien said as he drove. At least, for the past few days that had passed, they had learned to tolerate each other again, so Liam didn’t need to be interrupting at every interval. Lauren felt herself tense as she didn’t know what the outcome could be. For days now, she had not seen Quincy, and then he had also made up with her by calling her and explaining the situation to her. She was glad that he at least explained to her, but she just couldn’t help but feel that he still had at least, an atom of love for Kohler, and that hurt her deeply each time she thought about it. Soon, they got to his family house, and on getting there, it was only the grandfather who was present at the dining table. But there was no food served there. “Welcome,

Minutes before Liam answered the call, Damien was pacing around with his phone and leaned close to her ear, listening to the now annoying dial tone.“What the hell!” He said sharply under his breath as he kept on waiting.It was becoming frustrating that Liam hadn't answered his call ever since he left earlier with Lauren.The fact that he hadn't answered his call only made him a little worried because his phone was right in the car with him. He was hoping they hadn’t gotten into an accident or something.But then, even though they didn’t get into an accident, another reason he might not answer his call could be that his phone was on silent, but he wasn’t certain if it was on silent. But at least, he ought to know of their current whereabouts and if she was fine, but curiosity was beginning to eat her out.“If I still can't get through to them after calling and calling, I might have to get to the hotel to find out myself; hopefully Lauren would have checked in safely.” He said to him

“Pfft!” Lauren scoffed and rolled her eyes at the answer he gave her.There was no way on earth that his answer was believable.Does Talia mean nothing to him? Lies. She said in her mind.“Oh, come on. Do we need to introduce lies to this newly found relationship? A friend of mine who looked into the case quickly told me that Talia is a crazy woman.” Lauren uttered, peering into Damien’s eyes as she waited for a response from him regarding that.But suddenly, his calm expression turned into a displeased one. His brows curved downward, and he maintained a cold look.“You know what? I’m not in any way comfortable with you keeping people like that as friends, talk more of someone that close to you since she doesn’t know how to mind her business.”“And how should that be something for me to consider? Remember, our contract doesn’t include you getting to choose my friends.” Lauren spoke also raising her brows.It was quite annoying to her that he had to attack her friend just to play his

Damien didn't see this coming. He never thought that his mother would go to the extent that she didn't want him to get married to anyone but Talia. “Lauren!” Damien called out as he ran after her.She stomped her feet while walking towards the gate, and wasn’t willing to answer him. “Lauren!” He called out to her again as she passed by the gates, and then she stood close to the car and turned abruptly to him.“What is it!” Lauren snapped at him. “You brought me here just so your mother could speak demeaning words to me?” she questioned, feeling so much hurt in her.She hadn't recovered from the one Quincy gave her, so getting one from his mother wasn't what she signed up for.Suddenly, she noticed a lady walking towards them, and while she smiled at Damien, she gave her a sneer.The lady walked up to Damien and placed her hand on his chest as she trailed her finger on it. “Baby, I’m so happy I found you here.” She spoke cutely. Lauren rolled her eyes and was about to walk away wh

Lauren was sobbing so hard in his car after letting out what was disturbing her. She was able to talk to him because they also related like friends at some point before the whole loving situation came in.“It's okay, Lauren. I understand you, and… I think I can also help you.” Damien said to her.As Damien let out those words, she turned to look at him with curiosity.“You can help me? How?” She asked and sniffled.“I'll just help you get your man. We'll find ways to do that, but you must help me in return. More like we should have a bargain.” Damien told her.“Okay, what's that?” “I want you to act like you're my fiancee and we'd like to get married. Just act that way before my mom and grandfather, then we're good to go.” Damien asked of her.That was a little difficult to do because claiming such could end up destroying her marital life one day, and she didn't want to take chances like that.“If you're scared about this, I'm assuming, you are one hundred percent safe,” Damien said,
