The Return of Billionaire Quincy chapter 63
Quincy's eyes fluttered open, and he felt the dart still poking his neck. He took in a deep breath and took out the dart. Dried blood stuck to it, and he looked at it before pocketing it. He would find a way to deal with whoever had planned such for him. Groggily taking in his surroundings, he discovered that someone had placed him in his car, or perhaps it was the same person who had fired the dart. Was he still in danger? CRUNCH! The sound was loud, sharp, and sudden, and Quincy's eyes darted upwards with his heart swelling with each beat it took. It was his car, but it was destined for destruction. Quincy dashed to the window and pushed. The doors were locked, and he hit the glass and wondered if his armored glass— which he had fixed out of a strong urge for protection— would be the death of him. The walls of the car press closed in around him with loud groans as the metal tried to resist his face. Quincy dipped lower, as the metal came closer to his head. Panic set in as he f

Lauren had gone to Paris, and she was in her apartment, with a glass of wine in her hand, thinking about all that happened, and her mind drifted back to when she had just gotten news that Quincy was engaged.~flashback~Lauren couldn’t wash off the shock she felt when she got to know that Quincy was engaged. “Was that the reason he hadn’t made any step, towards calling us a thing?” She thought to herself.Her heart felt shattered, and that was when she knew how deep her feelings had become for him. She had always felt this strong connection with him, even before they got a little close. “Why did he have to be engaged, and had said nothing about it? Why was he taking time to reveal it to me?” Another thought came to her mind.“Why?” She muttered as she sat on her bed, feeling devastated.A tear ran down her eyes, and another came, and they began flowing down to her chin, and dripped down her gown.The pain went deeper, and her hand found its way to her chest, and squeezed it, wishing

Even as Lauren was looking at Quincy as the man that she desired, there was another, looking at her. Thomas Grayson. He was wealthier than Quincy at that time, and he that time, also thought that Lauren loved him, because they were close to an extent, and he also didn’t mind the closeness between her and Quincy, because he felt their friendship was just a rare kind, and nothing more.Unfortunately, he found out the hard way that Lauren was in love with Quincy. And even when he gave her enough reasons for her to be with him, she refused, which hurt him deeply.Thomas was sipping his wine, and staring out at the window when his right-hand man, walked in.“Have you gotten information on him?” He asked, without looking back.“Yes. But it’s not a recent one. Ever since his wife divorced him, there has been no intel on him. But I’ll be working further to find a way I get the latest intel on him.”“Alright then. Ensure you do. That’s not enough bad luck for him.” Thomas said, and then his ri

On the other hand, Quincy stared at the image of pretty Elise Walter who had been the third applicant. She had been great at cooking and had laughed a lot, showing a jovial side to her, but she had been too young.He had doubted she'd be able to handle keeping the house. She'd have to clean, wash, tidy, and cook. He didn't think she had the patience nor the strength for all that. Also, he didn't want anything that would remind him of Lauren or Kohler. Already, the big turn-off was that she was wearing one of the earrings Kohler used to wear. She was pretty with Auburn hair, and large green eyes, with heart-shaped lips. Of course, he wouldn't want someone as pretty as a maid. He didn't want any situation that Kohler would think he'd moved on already. “This lady applied to your house yesterday as a maid? You should have known such a young, bright lady wouldn't come for an interview unless she had a hidden agenda.” Scott said, frowning down at the photo. “I didn't accept her anyways.”

“Move a bit, and I'll blast your damn brains out! Try me!” She screeched, as she switched the gun back and forth on the both of them. “You shot that dart,” Quincy said, his jaw clenching. “I did!” She replied fiercely, repositioning her fingers carefully on the gun. “Why?” Scott asked, his brows furrowing. She laughed, “I doubt you'll know. Yeah, that's how you rich people always are.”“You doubt I'll know?” Quincy asked. “Because no one else matters. Yes, you can never know what you did.” She said, nodding her head, making her auburn curls bounce. “Drop the gun. Do you know what you did?” Scott hissed. “I intended a car press to press him flat, and have him as flat as my mat!” She hissed, and Quincy stormed towards her, his anger taking over. “Do you know how much…”“Quincy!” Scott shouted. “...I got scared? Do you know how hard it was to breathe?”“Stop! I'll shoot! I said, step back. I will shoot. Hey, I'm telling you I mean it…”“Quincy, stop it!” Scott made to grab Quinc

Quincy stared at the horrible sight for a long time, and so did the maid, as all words were robbed mercilessly from them.“What happened?” Quincy asked Bertha, who was still on the floor, paralyzed from the horror. “I… I… I was about to… to sleep, but… but realized the room was a little dusty, so… so I wanted to do a bit of cleaning before… before concluding the day over, and… and oh goodness…” she shuddered, “the lights were on, and… and I just thought to turn them off, nothing more. I'm… I'm quite sure I turned them off before going to my room, and… and this is what I saw.”Her trembling hand went to her mouth, as her eyes filled up with tears. She shook her head as if trying to erase the image from her head. Quincy helped her to stand, but she was unable to tear her eyes off the horrible sight. “Can I… can I know if… if you've wronged someone? Is someone out to get you? Is there anyone apart from us who has keys to the house?” She asked, and Quincy could tell she wanted to flee.
The Return of Billionaire Quincy chapter 69
Lauren’s reflection period seemed to be a serious one, filled with so many flashbacks. She couldn’t help, but go back to the past, and it seemed to be her way of healing and reflecting on her actions, gradually.~flashback~“Lauren, that's the least of your problems right now. What are we going to do about what we feel for him?” If he was going to get engaged, then…” She paused.“What about me? Would I be forced to smile at his wedding? And when he gave birth to his kids, would I have to love them, hold them, and be nice to them?” She thought to herself.Lauren got back home, in an even more sour mood, but happened to run into Quincy in the hallway close to her room. When he saw her, he strode over to her, and surprisingly wrapped her in a hug. Her heart began to beat crazily like it wanted to split itself open against the ribcage of her chest, and her cheeks colored a bright crimson. Lauren wanted to wrap her arms around him, but instead, she retreated, feeling anger wash over me.

Quincy on the other hand, was furious, when he saw the message. “What’s going on, Quincy? What did you see?” Scott asked, out of concern.“Just imagine the message I got, again,” Quincy uttered, and then handed over his phone to Scott.Scott was also shocked to see the message, and it was quite as annoying as it should be. More like the person was engaging them in a hide-and-seek game, which he didn’t intend to join.“I need to get to the root of this.” He said, to himself.Then he stepped out of the living room, to the guards who were in the compound.“Did anyone get into this house, without me knowing?” He asked them, and they shook their heads.“Are you certain about this?” Quincy asked again, finding it difficult to believe that someone had not stepped into the house, if not, how would a message have been scribbled on his maid’s room walls?It was even more confusing as to how the person had gotten his number.“Sir, no one strange has come into this building. We assure you of tha

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,
chapter 161
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,
