The Return of the Trillionaire Heir Chapter 131: What A Feeling
"Oh, you're back." Juliet said calmly as soon as Robert walked through the doors. He had a frown on his face, which was very noticeable even with the smiles he tried to force. "Is everything okay?" She asked before she could hold back."Yes. Everything is fine." He forced another smile and moved closer to the bed. "I'm sorry I was out for a long time. You must be hungry." He sat by her, and took a little plate out of of the bag in his hand. Juliet sat up, looking at him closely. He looked angry, but was still very caring."Thank you. But I won't want to eat that here. I'll eat it at home instead.""Oh, you want to leave now?" He asked immediately, getting off the bed as soon as she nodded. "Let's go, then.""But, sir..." She said gently, her eyes down. "You have already done a lot for me today. Don't worry about me. I'll get home safe.""Oh, Juliet, but it isn't a problem for me. I will take you home. I want to be sure that you are okay.""I will be okay, sir. But you really do not
The Return of the Trillionaire Heir Chapter 132: The Caregiver
It was about 8am that morning, but the house seemed quiet. Robert left his room quietly and walked to Jude's room."Grandfather?" He called softly, his head slightly through the door while the other part of his boy waited outside. Jude didn't respond, so Robert went in, walking as calmly as he could. His legs were almost not touching the floor. obert stood by the side of his grandfather's bed, watching him as he slept peacefully. He hadn't done that in a while, and now that he finally did, the feeling of relief was immeasurable. He had invited the caregivers Liam had recommended, over to the house. And while he waited for their arrivals, he decided to see how his grandfather was doing. He wasn't surprised at the rush of different emotions he felt. His happiness and anger were the most peaking emotions though. Angry he was, at the ordeal that had taken place between Mr Daniel and himself. But at the same time, he was happy seeing his grandfather breathing and alive. He had no intentio
The Return of the Trillionaire Heir Chapter 133: The Outburst
"Thank you so much, sir." Martha smiled, her voice shaking a bit. "Thank you." Philip and Rita looked at her in an irritable manner. Philip was angry. His plan had failed woefully. He turned to leave immediately."Umm... Excuse me." Robert said softly. Philip turned and faced him once more. Robert smiled, addressing them all. "Thank you very much for coming. Please meet him and write down your account number for your compensation. Thank you, once again." He paused and turned to Robert. "Get a pen, alright?"Robert nodded and disappear ed from the room. Few minutes later, he reappeared with a little jotter and a pen."Thanks again, for coming. Ma'am Martha, please come with me. Excuse me." With that, Robert turned and headed up the stairs, with Martha scurrying behind him. Philip watched her go up the stairs, his eyes and blood boiling wit anger."Excuse me, sir." Raymond called out, trying to draw his attention to the matter at hand. But he was so engrossed in this loathing that he di
The Return of the Trillionaire Heir Chapter 134: Sibling Love
"Good morning, sis." Mary smiled widely, in front of the mirror, as her sister stirred in bed. "It's almost 11am, aren't you going to work, sleepyhead?"Juliet's eyes fluttered open. She moved her hair away from her face and inhaled. "Are you okay?" Mary asked again, when her sister didn't respond."I'm fine." Juliet finally said, her voice coarse yet soft. She sat up, gently rubbing her eyes with the back of her palm."So, what are we doing today since you aren't going to work?""Well, I don't know. Maybe I'll just have some more rest. My boss literally have me the day off just for that.""Oh! I see. That's nice, sleeping beauty." Mary hissed viciously. "What was that about?" Juliet asked calmly, still unable to understand why Mary acted the way she did towards Robert. "I know you don't relate well with strange people, but why does it seem like you hate him? He didn't even do anything to you. I mean, you just met him.""I don't hate him." Mary sighed, slightly rolling her eyes. "He'
The Return of the Trillionaire Heir Chapter 135: Olivia's Here
"Hey you." Her voice was angelic. She bit her lip in a seductive manner and lent over her make up table, with the phone pressed against her ear. "I thought you'd never call.""That would have been bad of me, don't you think?""Well, yeah. But I already gave up on the whole date thing. I mean, it's almost 5pm. I thought something important came up and you had forgotten about me... I mean the date.""Oh Olivia! Something did come up but not enough to make me forget what we talked about yesterday. I'm sorry I didn't call earlier. Wait, how did you know I was the one calling?""I just knew." She giggled softly, staring at her reflection in the mirror. Her eyes glittered beautifully. "So what then now?"So...are you still up for the date? We are still going out today right?" Robert sounded almost thrilled, but trying his best to be composed."Yes, totally." She turned away from the mirror, jumping down from the swivel chair in excitement, her hand reaching to her chest, almost as if to hol
The Return of the Trillionaire Heir Chapter 136: The Dinner Date
She looked in the mirror one last time, her red lips carving in to a mysterious smile. She leaned a bit forward and stared at her sparkling, silver shoes."Now, this is an ensemble for a date." She pushed her hair a backwards, but it came right back, bouncing in to position at the side of her face. She smiled once more, placing a little, fancy bag on one of her arms. In her other hand was her phone. "It's 7pm already. Arghh..." She grunted. "Where is this guy? Oh my word. I really needed his to come pick me up before it's time. Curse these drivers for rent." She dialled a number immediately and placed the phone against her ear, trying as hard as she could to be patient. But he did not answer. She grunted again, feeling very frustrated as she dialled his number again."Good eve...""Where are you, Greg? I told I needed to be out of the house by this time. Where are you?" Her voice was loud and somewhat agitated."I'm sorry, ma. I just got caught up in traffic.""Don't give me that, mis
The Return of the Trillionaire Heir Chapter 137: A Wrong Decision
He immediately looked away, his eyes on his date who was seating just across him. He flashed a clean smile at her, pretending that he hadn't seen Sophia. She and Michael were just about leaving the restaurant. "Baby, look who's here." Sophia stopped, a little past Robert's table. She smiled at Robert as Michael stretched his hand for a handshake. Robert hesitated, looking at Michael's hand closely and then back to Michael and Sophia's smiling face. "I see you're with somebody. Your girlfriend?"Robert shook Michael's hand carefully, a disgusting look on his face. Olivia watched him, unable to tell what was happening. But, one thing she could tell was that Robert wasn't comfortable with whoever these people were. She almost said something but she held herself back just in time."Like you said, I am with somebody. Do you have to ask all that?" He sighed, taking a pause in order to stop himself from saying something that may trigger Sophia and sabotage his date with Olivia. He suddenly
The Return of the Trillionaire Heir Chapter 138: Liam's Plan
At the end of he date, Robert drove Olivia home in his car. The night had already gone really far at the time. While in the car they both stole some really steamy glances from each other, and talked a lot of other things that had not been shared in the date. Sometimes Robert will catch himself in the middle of laughter and wonder to himself if he was really indeed ready for whatever it was he was about getting into. She would catch him in those moments, and he would return her gaze with a smile, wondering if she caught him in those moments at times.They arrived at her vicinity soon enough and Robert stepped down from the car, and then circled it to go open the door for Olivia."What a gentle man" she said, both cheeks on her face red as she blushed hard."Well, atleast I try my best to be a gentleman." He chuckled as he guided her down the vehicle. For some reason she nearly tripped down from the car, but quickly with a dash as quick as light, he caught before she would plunge int

Chapter 199: The Final Verdict
"Now listen to me, you creep. You are just bluffing and..." The call ended before he could say anything else. He grunted in anger and walked back to where he was before. Raymond had alerted the police officers inside, and a chase had began to get Olivia. Robert walked back to them, breathing heavily."The police are after her." He tried to catch his breath."I know, sir. Let's meet with the detectives at once. I got everything she said on tape.""Yes!" Roberts eyes lit up. "Let's go, then." The two men rushed in back in to the building. Fransisco followed slowly behind them, but when he saw that they were really ahead of him, and wouldn't notice if he wasn't with them, he moved back. He looked from side to side as he rushed out of the premises. Meanwhile, many policemen ran out of the building like a colony of ants, each person dispersing themselves into different cars. Soon, the cars were out of sight. Robert walked out of the building with Raymond beside him. "It's a good thing you
Chapter 198: Tough Break
The detective squinted as he looked at his colleague. He turned back to Robert with a stern face before speaking."That is a serious accusation, sir. Are you sure about what you are saying?""Sure? Not exactly. But I really suspect that they might have had something to do with this. About Michael, I do not know how involved he might be. But Sophia? She even went to Juliet's house once to talk bad about me.""And how do you know that?""I saw her leave the house. I tried to ask her why she had come but she ignored me, and left hurriedly. Also, Juliet told me about it when I went in.""Hmm..." He sighed softly as he wrote something in his notebook. "And why would this Sophia want to talk bad about you to your girlfriend?""Sophia and I used to be married. But we got a divorce right before I met my grandfather. After that, she tried had to get back in to my life, but I refused. I think that made her very angry because she said questionable things after, things I didn't take serious.""Sh
Chapter 197: One Step Close
"He will be down here in a bit. We should wait in the car, so we can leave immediately he gets here." Raymond announced as he walked down the stairs. Robert immediately opened the door and walked out on hearing that. "Umm... Ryan." He called as he walked towards the car. "Some people will be here later today to do some fixing in here, let them in. They will show you their ID cards first.""Yes, sir." Ryan nodded. He left as soon as Robert waved him off."Sir..." Raymond called hesitantly. "Please, I need to speak with you.""What is this about, Raymond? You know this isn't the time for conversations that are not...""It is very important, sir.""Alright." He sighed and got in to the car. Raymond walked to the other side and got in as well. "What is it?""It's about Fransisco." He paused and swallowed hard. "I... I heard him in his room." Robert squinted with concentration. He didn't trust Fransisco one bit and with the way Raymond was speaking, he was ready to hear the worst."What
Chapter 196: Re-emerged Case
Robert didn't sleep the whole night. His eyes were open, fixed to the ceiling and filled with tears in his grandfather's room. It felt like the night would never end, like the torture and pain he was feeling would never end as well. Raymond knocked on the door several times to find out if he was alright, but he asked him to leave every single time. Just as his eyes were beginning to flutter with drowsiness, a bright light pierced through the window. He got off the couch immediately and headed to his room. There, he had a quick change of clothes before heading down to meet Raymond, and of course, Fransisco."Good morning, sir." Raymond said as soon as he saw him walking down the stairs. There was a smile on his face. One that Robert could not fathom at first. "Are you okay?""I'm fine." He said sharply with very steady eyes. He didn't seem like someone who had sobbed all night, maybe because he was very good at hiding his feelings. "We need to go to the station now.""But you've not h
Chapter 195: Blood And Water
"Gone? Gone?" She asked, totally calm. She was dazed for a moment. She stood still with tears running down her cheeks. "What is gone? What does that even mean?" She managed to murmer."I don't even know what happened. I met the policemen on my way to the house, and I saw her. I saw her right there being placed on the stretcher. And she wasn't moving."She shot an angry eye at him as he tried to explain what he had seen. He stopped immediately and looked down. It was clear that all he was saying didn't matter to her at this point. She didn't want to hear anything."What did you do to my sister, Robert? What did you do to her?" She yelled."No, no. What are saying? I do not know what exactly happened to her. But I will make sure they pay dearly for it.""You, liar. What did she ever do to you? She didn't deserve this. She didn't!" Mary yelled, crying bitterly. She didn't mind the staring eyes that looked in her direction. She just wanted to know why this had to happen to her sister. "
Chapter 194: Disbelief And Pain
"Police station? What for?" She asked with wide eyes. He couldn't see her but he could already tell the expression on her face. And that was because she sounded just as confused as she looked. "What does that have to do with my sister, Robert? Where is my sister?""I'm really sorry, Mary." He said with a shaky voice. He could no longer contain the hurt he felt. "They don't really know what happened to her, but....""But what?" She interrupted sharply with tears dancing freely in her eyes, waiting gor the perfect opportunity to pour out. She heard what he was saying, but she did not understand. She did not want to understand if it was really what she was thinking. "What are you talking about, Robert? Where the hell is my sister?""Just meet me at the station now." He ended the call immediately. He couldn't mutter the courage to tell her that Juliet was found dead just minutes ago. He took a deep, shaky breath and nodded at the police officer. "I'll be at the station."Immediately after
Chapter 193: Bloody Dusk
As he drove closer, he could see bright lights in a distance. He squinted hard to see exactly where the lights were coming from, but he couldn't see clearly. He sped up and was surprised to see police vehicles littered all over the place. He parked his car close by and looked on. He could see some officers placing barricade tapes around that particular area. Thoughts started to fly once more in his mind, and for a moment, his throat tightened. "No, no. Don't overthink anything, Robert." He said to himself and took a deep breath. He got out of the car, and walked quickly towards the area. As he got closer, he thought he recognised the car that was parked on the side of the road. He shook his head in disbelief and got even nearer to the scene. But before he could go past the barricade tapes, he was stopped by one of the officers."You can't come here, sir." The officer said roughly, his hand against Robert's chest in a light manner."What is going on here?" He asked in confusion, stari
Chapter 192: Quick Search
About two hours after Juliet left the office, Robert decided to do same. Juliet suddenly came to his mind. "Isn't she home yet?" He said under his breath. "Why hasn't she called yet?" He picked up his phone from the table and called her immediately. The first time, there was no response. He called again, and still, there was no response. "Well, I guess she's busy. I'll just call when I get home." He stood up and arranged all the documents, piling each on top of the other. He tucked everything under his arm and headed to the car."Good evening sir." The security guard hailed from his duty post."Yes, good evening." He answered before placing the documents in the back seat of the car. He closed the car door and walked closer to the young man. "Umm... Tomorrow, some men will be here to do a few checks and fixings in the building. Do let them in, alright?""Yes sir.""Alright then. Have a good night." He nodded and walked to the car. In no time, he sped off. As he drove down the street t
Chapter 191: Dead And Gone
It was 5pm now. The once blue sky was slowly getting darker. Little golden strips beatified the now grey like clouds. Juliet had a pile of documents in front of her and was working on them with utmost focus. Robert sat right opposite her, doing the same. His eyes suddenly looked in the direction of the glass wall, and then, at Juliet. He stared at her for a moment. He agreed with himself one more time that she was indeed the most beautiful woman he had ever set his eyes on. It felt like time stopped during those few moments, and he was lost in the beauty he was beholding."What are you looking at, Mister?" She asked in a serious tone. Her eyes, pinned on the papers in front of her. Robert shook his head with a soft smile, and peered down at his watch."You should get going, honey. It's past five.""Oh!" She exclaimed calmly and placed the pen in her hand on the table. She looked up and met his eyes. "You really want me to go?""If there was an alternative at this point, then I would
