“ If anybody told me I have a resemblance with a river goddess, I wouldn't have believed. Had it been my mum who is still alive, I would have asked her about my origin” Lilliana kept ranting inside the car as they returned home.Lucas was lost in thought and he didn't contribute to any discussion on their way home. He was driving at high speed because he wanted to get home quickly. He needed a quiet and cool place to think about what he heard about his future mother-in-law. He was sure Lilliana did not have much time to spend on earth, but when, how and where her death would happen, he didn't know.His brain kept processing about how Lilly would feel when she lost her dear mother. She had no friends except her mother. She seldom asked Clara for advice because she was her mother's adoptive daughter. She had no other confidant, so she would be totally broken if she lost her mother.Lucas thought there might be a way to reverse the death or ward it off, but Alina told him that was Lillia
“ What's wrong with Alex?” Lucas asked“ I can't really explain what the problem is. I have known Alex to be a strong man, but to see a grown up man shedding unending tears worries me.” Albert explained.Lucas looked at him in surprise, “ He might be hurt, but why would he be shedding tears like a small child? I just came back from a place and I'm tired. I will come back to see him in the evening after I have taken enough rest” he saidAlbert looked at Lucas's outlook, “ You look worn-out man, it seems you are battling with something also. Can you guys get a grip of yourselves and be strong for me?I'm the youngest among you and you are draining me already. I have problems too, you know.” He yelled in frustration, the he turned around to leave Lucas who was surprised by his outburst.“ This guy doesn't understand the pain in my heart. His only problem is to find his mother, not that she is dead.” Lucas hissed, then he went inside his house.He met Dave sitting in his living room siping
Elena's self esteem had changed during the course of her being alone in the house. She had learnt to love herself and also carried out some works alone. She tidied up the whole house, spray everywhere with air freshener and rearranged some things in the house.She ordered adult diapers for herself, so that she would not create a mess in the house. She also took her bath everytime she changed the diapers. Everywhere was sparkling clean and tidy.She started a garden in the house where she planted flowers and she watered them every morning and night. She did everything with joy and this had taken away most of her sorrows.Jinx never visited her again and the discharge from her private part had stopped. She was now reborn.Alex and other guys were initially scared when they couldn't find anybody in the house. They had searched everywhere and they had almost made a report for a missing person until Albert saw the back door opened. They went to the backyard and they were shocked when they
Elena was pacing back and forth, “ I didn't know that good Samaritan was his father, I would have informed him earlier than today” she lamented.“ It's not your fault, babe. We all thought his father was dead, so how could you have known?” Alex said.“ It's a pity you can't choose your parents, how could I have been related to a heartless man like Lucifer. All he does is to inflict pain on people, and he expects God to make him a king. That man deserves a painful death” Albert said bitterly“ Albert! That's too harsh for someone you called your father. Stop it, please” Elena retorted.“ Coming from someone who murdered her mother because of her excessive control. You don't need to behave like a saint here, Lucifer is worse than Catherina” Albert replied angrily. He knew his statement would hurt Elena but he hated the way she pretended to be holier than thou.“ I can't believe that's coming from a mature man like you, Albert. When will you stop being insensitive? Elena has changed and
Lucas rubbed his eyes and sat upright on the bed, “ What are you talking about?” He feigned ignorance.“ Don't even try to patronize me with that look. You had better start explaining now. Who is Dave?” Lilly glared at him.Lucas knew it's time for him to reveal his true identity to his fiancee, there is no need to hide anything anymore.“ Dave is my friend and my confidant. He has helped me to resolve the most difficult situation I have encountered in my life, so he is very important to me” he answered calmly.“ Okay, why were you murmuring his name in your sleep?” Lilly asked.Lucas looked confused, “ How would I have known what I did while sleeping? The question you just asked is rhetorical, babe.” Lucas said.Lilly shrugged her shoulders when she saw that she was overreacting. She turned her face from Lucas’s deep stare because she didn't want to look like a fool.“ You said earlier that you are a warlord and you can challenge any sorcerer, start explaining what you mean by that.”
“ Good morning Don, how are you?” Tiger welcomed Albert as he entered his father's compound. The Mafia members had been moved from the previous Mafia base into Lucifer's house.“ Don't call me that, I'm no longer the Don. Haven't I warned you before?” Albert responded irritatingly.“ Once a lion is always a lion, my boss” Tiger hailed him more.“ Not in this case, A lion is born a king and cannot be demoted or dethroned. You are the Don now, so maintain the position. Is my father around?” Albert asked“ Yeah, he is inside,” Tiger answered.“ Why did it take you so long to visit me, you always visited my house everyday before. Do you hate your father now” Lucifer asked as he set his eyes on Albert.“ Hate is an understatement, father,” Albert thought.“ You were not a fan of my visit then, meanwhile, I was here last week. Didn't Alfred inform you?” Albert responded.“ Hmm, I think a week is too long to visit your father's house. We can discuss while taking exotic drinks sometimes, like
“ I hope you realized you need to choose a date after your father's rescue, although the date should be after his treatment. He would have suffered a lot in the hands of that monster.” Dave said as he chewed the chicken drumstick he picked from his plate. The four men had gathered in Lucas's house to discuss the progress of their plans. Lucas brought out different delicacies and drinks to entertain them.Lucas shook his head as he saw the condition of his dining table, “ I know I have to choose a date urgently.” He responded to Dave's statement, then he pointed to the plate of creamy salad on the dining table. “ None of you have touched this salad, don't you know eating veggies is good for your health?” He said.“ You are the only health practitioner among us, you can as well finish it up. I'm not a fan of veggies, anyways.” Albert said.“ Has he explained Lucifer's game to you?” Lucas asked Dave. Alex had already informed him about Lucifer's proposition and he agreed to give Albert
“ Now that you have the company in your name, when do you promise to bring Alex over? We should dine and wine like one big family” Lucifer asked Albert as he went back inside the house.Albert had gone there with his lawyer as promised, and all the necessary arrangements were made to transfer the company to him. Although all other subsidiaries of the company were not included in the deal, he was the sole owner of the company's headquarters.He was about to put his signature on the documents,when Lucifer brought the idea of inviting Alex back to his house. Albert feigned anger at the initial stage, but he remembered Dave's warning, so he agreed to convince Alex.He made sure he followed his lawyer back to his car safely, then he secretly asked Tiger to watch over the man. Tiger was still loyal to him, even when he was no longer the Don of the Mafia group.He didn't trust Lucifer, so he only gave one of the duplicates of the documents to the lawyer, and he vowed to keep the original in
