The Lafayette Group bustled with its usual efficiency, its staff members meticulously attending to their tasks, seemingly indifferent to the currents of power that coursed through the organization. But beneath the façade of routine, a restlessness brewed, fueled by a longing for change, for the return of Roland and the end of Alex's reign.Maria, once Roland's trusted secretary and now serving under Alex, had overheard the conversation between Alex and the subordinate. The weight of that knowledge hung heavy on her shoulders, urging her to share it with her colleagues. During the lunch break, huddled together in a corner of the cafeteria, she cautiously divulged the revelation that had sent tremors of excitement through her."Guys, you won't believe what I overheard," Maria began, her voice barely above a whisper. "Roland... he's back. He showed up at the estate out of nowhere."The news hit the small group like a bolt of electricity, igniting a flicker of hope in their eyes. The
Roland awoke to the gentle rays of sunlight streaming through the windows of his grand bedroom. He stretched and yawned, feeling the warmth of the day embrace him. Rolling over, he caught sight of Seraphina, his beloved, lying beside him, her tousled hair framing her peaceful face. A smile tugged at his lips as he admired her beauty."Good morning, my love," Roland whispered, his voice filled with affection. Seraphina stirred, her eyes fluttering open, and a soft smile graced her face."Good morning, Roland," she replied, her voice still husky with sleep. "Did you sleep well?"Roland nodded, his eyes sparkling. "I did, thanks to you. Now, I suppose we must rise and face the day."With a playful grin, Seraphina leaned over and kissed him lightly on the lips. "As much as I enjoy our mornings together, duty calls, my dear. Let's get you dressed for the day ahead."The couple rose from the bed, their bodies entwined in a loving embrace. Seraphina took charge, selecting a well-tailored su
Days turned into weeks, and the anticipation surrounding the retrieval of the will weighed heavily on Roland's mind. While he waited for news, he immersed himself in the daily activities of managing the Lafayette Group secretly, under Alex nose, attempting to maintain a sense of normalcy amidst the uncertainty.He was aware of the spy that Alex sent to monitor him and the employees rebellion but he wanted to wait for a perfect day to strike.In the evenings, when the weight of responsibility seemed insurmountable, Roland found solace in the company of Seraphina. She became his pillar of support, offering comfort and understanding during those restless nights.Together, they explored the beauty of the Lafayette estate, strolling hand in hand through lush gardens and along the banks of tranquil lakes. They reveled in moments of laughter and shared dreams of a future that lay before them, unburdened by the complexities of the present.One particularly enchanting evening, as the sun be
WARNING!! THIS SCENE IS R-18 Roland sat on the edge of his bed, twisting a pen between his fingers as he stared at Seraphina, his eyes keen and curious. "I wonder what the will says," he said, "I'm so curious."Seraphina laughed softly, her eyes twinkling as she stepped closer to him. "You're always so curious," she said, "It's one of the things I love about you."Roland grinned, his hand reaching out to stroke her cheek tenderly. "Is it?" he murmured, his voice low and husky. "There are other things you love about me, aren't there?"Seraphina stepped into his embrace, her arms wrapping around his neck as she pressed closer to him. "Oh, yes," she breathed, "There certainly are."Their lips met in a heated kiss, their tongues dancing together in a sensual dance as they lost themselves in each other. Seraphina's hands roamed over Roland's strong shoulders, pulling him closer as he swept her back onto the bed.The air was thick with desire as they explored each other's bodies, Seraphina
The morning sun cast a warm glow through the curtains, gently illuminating Roland's bedroom. As he stirred awake, a blissful smile stretched across his face. His eyes fluttered open, and he found himself captivated by the sight of Seraphina, peacefully slumbering beside him. Her chest rose and fell rhythmically, her delicate features softened in the morning light. Roland didn't want to disturb her, but he couldn't resist the overwhelming surge of affection that welled up within him.Leaning in close, he pressed a tender kiss upon Seraphina's forehead. It was a gesture that spoke volumes, an unspoken declaration of love and adoration. Roland's heart swelled with joy, knowing that Seraphina was by his side. The connection they shared was precious, and he vowed to protect it at all costs.Reluctantly, Roland tore himself away from Seraphina's side, knowing that the day held important matters to attend to. He quickly dressed and made his way downstairs, where Butler Lucas awaited him,
The lawyer cleared his throat, his hands trembling ever so slightly as he held the sealed envelope containing Chairman Lafayette's will. The weight of the moment hung heavily in the air, as everyone in the study held their breath, their eyes fixed on the lawyer, waiting for the revelations that would shape their futures."Can you read out the will, now!?" Alex ordered with a commanding tone.The lawyer nodded in response as fear gripped him. With a steady hand, the lawyer carefully opened the envelope and extracted the document within. He unfolded it slowly, deliberately, as if prolonging the suspense. His gaze flickered across the words before him, ensuring that he had a firm grasp of its contents before he began."Before I proceed," the lawyer began, his voice resonating with a mix of formality and gravity, "I must emphasize that the final will of Chairman Lafayette contains several clauses, each pertaining to different aspects of the estate and its businesses."Roland's heart rac
A stunned silence engulfed the room, the weight of the words hanging in the air like a dark cloud. Roland's world seemed to collapse around him, the walls of the study closing in. It was as if everything he had fought for, everything he had hoped to achieve, had been cruelly snatched away in an instant."No," Roland gasped, his voice trembling with a mix of disbelief and devastation. The room spun around him, his vision blurred by unshed tears. It felt like a nightmare, an unfathomable twist of fate that threatened to suffocate him.Alex, his face contorted with a mix of triumph and malice, stepped forward, relishing in Roland's anguish. "You see, dear brother," he hissed, "I always knew I would inherit what was rightfully mine. This empire was built for me, and now it shall finally be mine to command."Butler Lucas, his usually composed demeanor cracking, shot a disapproving glare at Alex. "This is not the time for gloating, Mr. Lafayette," he snapped, his voice edged with barely con
Roland paced back and forth in his room, his anger simmering beneath the surface. The revelation of the will had shaken him to the core, and he couldn't shake off the feeling of betrayal. Seraphina, sensing his distress, approached him cautiously."Roland, please," she implored, reaching out to touch his arm gently. "There's more to this than meets the eye. Perhaps there's a reason why Alex was named as the heir. We should consider all possibilities before jumping to conclusions."Her words only fueled Roland's frustration. "How can you say that, Seraphina?" he snapped, pulling away from her touch. "After everything we've been through, all the evidence of his true nature, you expect me to believe he's the rightful heir? It's preposterous!"Seraphina's eyes filled with concern as she watched Roland struggle with his emotions. She knew the depths of his convictions, but she also believed in looking at the situation from all angles."Roland, I understand your anger, but we must keep an o
