The Son-in-law's Revenge Little chat
Pammad bent his head as soon as rays of natural light hit his eyes while stepping out of his company escorted by men from the FBI office. “Sir, could you at least make a comment on what is going on?” One of the reporters asked as the FBI official stepped out with some of his men surrounding Pammad who, although wasn't cuffed, still looked arrested with all the feds surrounding him.The reporters wasn't asking Pammad. The mic along with several mics from other media company and cameras were directed to Ian Lynch, a high ranking FBI official.“We're simply carrying an investigation.” He replied with an aloof face.“What kind of investigation is it sir?” Another asked. Ian wasn't going to answer but another reporter threw a more direct question. “Is it true that Pammad Logistics and Auto Enterprises is involved in delivery of illegal tech arms?”Ian paused and turned to stare at the reporter. A twenty-something year old lady with a cute face too innocent looking to bekie that she had

He wanted to wipe the smug smirk of five foot seven'a stupid face. He was irritated by the food in front of him, now having this annoying chipmunk sit beside him was just aggravating it. “What if I don't want to chat?”“That'd be you asking for problem rude boy.” five foot seven chuckled and lifted his body off his elbow he was resting on them turned his head slightly behind him. Soon they were joined by three other men who filled up the space on the other side of the bench, that is across 5ft 7 and the guy. “Rude boy” didn't lift his head as he stared at them though his lashes while his hand worked to cut a piece out of his bread. He knew what was happening, he was being cornered and it would be foolish to try to take on all of them. The tattooed guy with the brushable lowcut may be shorter than he was but his friends weren't. They were about his height and packed some good muscle. However, he wondered how 5ft 7 was able to make men who appeared stronger than he was his friend.“Wh
The Son-in-law's Revenge Your new CEO
The saltiness from the tears that seeped in through the cracks in her lips as she watched the TV screen only seemed to intensify the pain. She hugged herself, clutching at he sleeves of her her white blouse as she watched her husband being escorted into the Feds vehicle.Horrendous headlines in white letters pop up against a deep read banner at the bottom of the screen. “Pammad Logistics and Auto Enterprises suspected to be responsible for distributing illegal tech guns to terrorists in the Middle East via cars.” It read. Pamela's lips quivered as another tear slipped out of her raw eyes. She clutched her blouse about her chest region and sobbed heavily. She couldn't believe what was going on, she was losing everything.First, her beloved daughter and now her husband. Why? She asked the question in her head, her sobs got heavier. The gravity of it gripped her heart like the stronghold of a wicked claws, sucking the life out of her. She was seated in one of the sofas in the living
The Son-in-law's Revenge Hardwork was paying off
The three developers stared at a copy of the contract given to them. They've been doing so for seconds that crawled so slowly it felt like several minutes had passed. The tension in the room could be felt like a dampened cloak on ones shoulders. Isabel couldn't blame them. She wouldn't sign the contract so easily if she were them. To sign away a decade of your life slaving away for others was no easy feat. A decade was enough for start-up companies to make progress and shoot through the roof in growth. This contract was stripping them off the chance. The business world is really like an ocean. Small fishes get eaten by bigger fishes. “What's taking you so long?” Her father snapped at the young men impatiently. “If you're finding it difficult to sign the contract, then why don't you think of it this way? You have two options—” her father gesticulated with his hands. He stretched the right one a bit forward. “One, you work for us for ten years while still breathing nature's fresh air
The Son-in-law's Revenge Get rid of him
“Enjoy,” the waiter said in a low polite tone and left with a smile and the tray. Wow. Isabel's eyes roamed the dinner before them as she chaffed her laps with her palm excitedly. Her cheeks was tinted pink with excitement. Dinner with her father. Who would have thought that it would take so many years for a childhood desire to come true?“Do you like it?” Her father asked with a smile too sweet that it appeared unnatural so it wasn't out of place for Isabel to pause get excitement and question it.“Looks really good,” Isabel replied with a nod as she wondered why her father was endearing out of the blue. He usually didn't have time for stuff like this. Or was he just as happy as she was regarding the new chapter they were both about to enter into? Isabel's directed her gaze to her plate as her father picked up his fork to proceed eating. The meal was baked salmon served with vhaffron rice, veg escabeche and chimchurri. Very pleasing to look at and mouth-watering. They were at a st

“I promise to everything to get them back. I'm sure there's a way to give them a better offer.” Luka leaned forward, the look in his eyes eager to prove. Ruby sighed. “Forget it Luka. They didn't pick your calls. They are clearly not longer interested in whatver you have to offer.”“I'm yet to offer you!” Luka blurted. “Excuse me?” Ruby's offended tone and sharp curve if she eyebrows was enough to tell him his sentence arrangement was implying the wrong thing. “I mean, I'm yet to tell them that someone is important and as sure-proof as you are was coming in board to invest. I'm sure they'll be thrilled to be affiliated with the very top financial company in the state because that'll boost heir market value.” Luka explained. “I sincerely think it's a waste of time.”“It's not!” Luka's tone was jarringly sharp it caused Ruby to jump in her seat. He cleared his throat, exhaled slowly and relaxed. “Look, all I'm asking is that you give me time before you pull out. At least, let me fi

Doctor Charles looked at the images on the screen provided by the MRI scanner, tracing a part of it with his own. He clicked on the image, and it expanded, giving him a closer look. The doctor looked troubled as he released the sigh, left the computer screens, and released Gregory Smith from the MRI.Gregory sat with you with a groan despite the doctor helping him into the position.“How is your eyesight?”“Mmmmm,” Greg drawled out thoughtfully. “Nothing is should worry about. It's the same as ever. The only difference is my eyes doesnt test up easily anymore except when I am emotional.” He joked with a laugh. Doctor Charles didn't stop his lips from breaking into a smile, amused. He believed that even though this man was on his death bed with only a few minutes to live, he would make out time to slip on a joke or two. “Have you considered retiring?” Doctor Charles said carefully as he helped his formed shrug into his suit. Over the years of managing his health, they've gone from e

“Then I can really retire but I won't be some oldie sitting gmdoing nothing. I'll have listening ears to tell all my stores to…”Ruby's father was still talking about the need for her to get married. They were heading to a photo studio to take a family picture together like they do once or twice a year for themselves and for publicity. Her grandpa was big on this sort of thing. “Great, that's why you set me up with Vanderbilt's heir.” I reminded him and he looked away. “You sound like I did he wrong thing. Don't blame me. I was only trying to help you. I wouldn't be doing so if my old dear friend's son was still alive. You and Lukyan would have been the best couple.”Ruby shifted in her chair uncomfortably. “Grandpa. Even if Lukyan was alive and we got married, I would have to move to London since that's where he doctors.”“I doubt that. Lukyan was coming to Idaho for business expansion before hat terrible incident. His father wanted to expand Belinsky by building a restaurant with

We are here
They were all waiting for one person to arrive. Ruby continued to glare at William, pissed that he was here. “I still don't see any reason why he is here Lukyan.” Ruby called him directly now that everyone present in the room now knows. “We need him to testify against his father in the court later. Besides an enemy of my enemy is a friend even if it's temporary. “ Etham whispered to her. Ruby spared another harsh glance at William who gave her look that told how pleased he was to be her source of discomfort. Ruby thought she's had her share of surprise that day until the AI announced Drogo's presence askimg Lukyan to give them entry. Them because Drogo wasn't alone. Ruby watched the door with expectant eyes as Drogo filed in, followed by Tony and a battered blindfolded man.. Tony pushed the blindfolded man to the floor, blood smeared the it as the man tried to gather himself up. In addition to the blindfolded, his mouth was gagged and his hands were tied behind his back. “A p
A visitor
“You have a visitor Will.” The officer informed him..William frowned, wondering who it could be. Has his father developed a remorse of his un-fatherly actions and wanted to right the wrong?Nah. William shook his head.“Who is it?”It's your uncle.” The officer replied over his shoulder. William halted. His father's brothers didn't give a hoot about family, why would they visit him all of a sudden.“Hey! Hurry up. I ain't got all day.” The officer yelled at him. William wasn't led to the usual visiting room. He was led to a more.lrivaye one hat a detective would use to interrogate a prisoner for details instead. “Who the heck could that caring uncle be?” William wondered out loud as the office urged him into a room.The bloody hell!” William yelled as soon as he saw who was seated waiting for him.Ethan and one other man he didn't know. Ethan looked at the officer and nodded at him to leave them in privacy. “Hey! Hey!!!” William yelled whn this officer locked them in.“I'd prefer
You'll see
The best they could do by themselves was make the study rid of dust so to recieve Mr Alexei Javi who was probably running down this way with his shadow behind.As soon as they were done, theybwere informed of his presence.“Sir Zaitsev, you have a visitor.”“Scan and see if you recognize his face,” Ethan replied the AI with a smile, knowing that it knows who Alexei was. It just simply felt good to be him again.“Alexei Javi, Chairman of Javinsons hotel. Would you like further information on him sir?” it replied.“No, thank you.”“Approve or deny entry?”“Approve.” Minutes later, a man in his seventies still with a youthful energy around hims burst into the room as if the fact that he had been given entry was not enough proof that Lukyan was alive. As soon as he reached the threshold of the study, he halted. Eyes shifted from Droho to Lukyan. “You.” He breathed, staring at Diego. His eyes softened and Justine was filled with relief. “You're here too.”Drogo smiled. “But…” He stared
As you live
Two hours later, Drogo and Ethan were leaving the coastal countryside with flash drives and documents from the smaller rectangular boxes in the treasure chest at the Ivanov's resident. They also didn't leave without having some money transferred to Polina and a promise to visit her again in the future.Now they were headed to Ethan's grandfather's beach house in the rental car.“I'm thinking of having Polina work for us after I resuscitate Belinsky Enterprises. I'm going to focus on how restaurant and food production part.” Ethan shared his thoughts with Drogo who responded with a small smile of approval.They got to the beach house in time. Outside, the building was beauty to behold but Ethan knew that the inside would be crawling with all kinds of creepy and stray things. After his grandfather's death, all of the workers had been dismissed including the housekeeper or do he thought until he saw a hunched figure in a black coat and a checkered print tweed flat cap hurrying out ofa cr
So long
The childlike giggle high-pitched by excitement travelled far thanks to the wind that came with the push and pull of the seawater against the sand, creamy white foam lining the tip. There were three figures playing on the sand, two wore blue shorts and were shirtless while the third one wore a green one with a tank top on. They all had light blonde hair. “I'm counting now!” The third one yelled, sounding feminine. “One! Two! Three! Stop!” The boys froze. They both found it hard to control their laughter as the girl chose which to go after. The game was simple. She had a maximum of three leaps to make it tonome person. If she does touch whichever she picked in those three leaps, then the person touched will replace her in he middle and do his counting. Between the two boys, one could tell which was older very easily. The one on the right hand of the girl was taller and older-looking than the cute little boy on her left who was about his elbow high. They all resembled each other so i
Satisfaction
Isabel's spirit seemed to drop further into despondency with each step she took down the stairs. Wrapped in a wool robe and her hair in a towel of the same material, her finger traced the silver railing of her stairs as she descended slowly. She's just had the loneliest heartbreaking bath. Despite the essence she had added to her bath water that was meant to help her feel great afterwards, her body still ached. And parts of her she couldn't exactly identity. She was sure if one thing however. That she was numb from head to toe. She's done enough crying to last a year, her tear ducts were probably tired and wouldn't produce any more of the salty liquid even if it was prompted to. Her slow descent finally came to an end and she had eventually reached the end of the stairs. Her eyes roamed the house at an unrushed pace, slowly taking everything in and noting how empty—super empty the house seemed to have become. Could one person really make such an impact? She asked herself, huggin
Silver
“You know, you could have just let Ruby drive us to wherever this Thai restaurant is than is having to ride in your car.” Ruby looked outside as she strapped the seatbelt across her chest, silently praying that no one else saw her go into his car. “Thank you but I'd rather not be seen in a Cosmo purple car. Who drives such a colour around nowadays.” Tony put on his seatbelt to and leaned forward to assess the tightness.“Uh excuse me, it's called being unique.”“You're certainly standing out.” Tony teased. “Well sorry if you can't stand a little colour because you're used to the greyness of your world.” She tapped the side of the vehicle lightly with her knuckle for emphasis.“Silver.” Tony corrected as he pulled out of the lot. “It's silver Lolly.”Ruby's eyes jutted together. “Lolly?”“Your car looks like grapefruit flavour so…” Tony explained.Ruby opened her mouth as if to say “the audacity!” “Look, I have varied taste. I'm not restricted to a colour okay. You know what, when n
Guy in black suit
Ruby's body perked up the instant she saw him wall out of the building. “Go after him!” She tapped the shoulder of the driver's seat eagerly.“Who?” Jena asked.“The guy in the black suit.”Jena scanned the parking lot of Logan Industrial Group and found he oerosj her boss was suddenly enthusiastic about. “Tony?” She blurted out thoughtlessly, wincing quietly when she realized her slip-up.“You know him?” Ruby watched Tony speak to someone in his phone. He looked attractive with his hands on his waist and his face switching to serious to slightly less serious as he conversed with whoever was on the other side of the line. Today was sunny and his gelled hair was shiny under the rays of the sun. “Yeah. Tony Ecaudor. Just by name. You know from people I've worked with in the past.” Jenner did her best not to stammer and raise further questions from Ruby. She watched Tony end the phone call and got out his car keys.“Quick! Drive up to him. Quick quick!”Jenner did her fastest starting
Signed
Isabel didn't wait for the car to completely stop. She couldn't. The words were still playing over and over in her head. “Ethan signed the divorce papers sweetheart. You're now a free woman.” As soon as her father had said those words, the driver had stopped the car while she asked—rather, demanded what he was talking about and why the divorce papers had her signature on it even when she had no recollection of ever signing the divorce papers. “You don't remember? It was the day we ate together at the restaurant.” Her father had answered before closing the door, leaving her even more consterned.She rushed past the guards and servants welcoming her, not bothering about her belongings still in the boot of the car. A light shower has started, miniature droplets of it getting soaked up by her blazer. She burst through the front door, eyes wide and searching as she scanned the premises. It was empty and her heart did a painful lurch. Next, she ran up the stairs to the bedroom and with
