Before Lucas could get back home, it's already nightfall. Bobby had taken care of the paramedics and the police that came for investigation. Since Lucifer's men were wearing masks, no cogent evidence was obtained against them.“ How is dad’s condition? I just checked up on him in his room, but he is still sleeping, hope there is no problem?” Lucas asked Lilly when he got to their room.“ He is getting better,babe. He woke up an hour ago to take his medications, then he went back to sleep. I didn't want to disturb him, that's why I left his room. How far about Albert? Were you able to calm his stubborn head?”Lucas chuckled at his wife's adjective, “ Alex’s men could have beaten him up, if I hadn't got there. Although Albert deserved that, he was deceived by his father. Lucifer was trying to lure him out of his hideout. He will resume work tomorrow, and I'm sure he can't kidnap him in a public place. Two of Alex's strong men will accompany him tomorrow, so there is no cause for alarm”
Bobby was seen pacing back and forth in front of Rowland's company. Immediately he received Lucas's call, he left his research institute and rushed down to inform the board of directors about the news.Some were scared and they even pitied Justin on his series of encounters his family had with the criminals. Bobby was asked to call the police, but none showed up until Lucas and Justin left the scene.While some were scared, of course his enemies were happy. Some even accused him of having dirty dealings with the criminals.“ I don't think Justin is pure, he might have secret dealings with those criminals” “ Yeah, I think you are right. How on earth will they focus only on his family if they didn't have something hidden”“ He should have just surrendered himself if he had any shading dealings with them. He put the life of his daughter in danger because of this” “ Yeah, poor Lilly. She was traumatized because of her father's offense.” A reasonable man among them shouted at them, “ Wi
“ Calm down babe, Dad is fine” Lucas tried to console his wife on the phone, then he picked up Justin's file, “ We need to leave now, dad. Lilly and Joy are getting worried at home”At the same time, at Robinson's Company, Albert arrived at the company with two bodyguards. The memo had been circulated within the company that a new CEO will replace Alex, so the employees weren't surprised.As he walked majestically inside the company, the female employees were left in awe.“ I heard Alex has a younger brother, but I never know he will be as handsome as his elder brother”“ Yeah, the Robinson's gene is very strong. Mr Jeffrey's genes produced fine specimens as children. He is even taller than Alex, I feel like touching those abs on his chest.Albert always left the first three buttons open when he dressed and he hated using ties, so part of his chest was displayed.As the employees still regarded Alex as Jeffrey's Son, it showed that he didn't announce to the public that he had disowned
“ That bastard waylaid you on your way to the office after the havoc he caused yesterday. Let's do something please, this is becoming a ritual for him” Lilly cried out.After Lucas and Justin rushed home to calm Lilly. Lucas has to explain the incident to Lilly, Joy and Marie in the presence of Bobby who was kept in darkness for weeks. Lilly was scared for his father and she freaked out.“ I can't believe you hide all these from me, I am your best friend, Justin. How could you hide something as serious as this from me! Don't you trust me anymore?” Bobby yelled in anger, he felt belittled, betrayed and worthless. He was disappointed in his friend of almost forty years for hiding his pain from him.“ I'm sorry, Bobby. I don't want you to get worried because of what we passed through before and after Lilliana's birth. Clara developed high blood pressure after the birth, so I didn't want to add to your problems.”“ You should have said something even if it's little, what is the solution
Their Jaws were dropped and they kept it hanging for a while. The unexpected volunteering was like a bombshell to them. Everyone knows Marie didn't want to be in the same space alone with Justin, so the sudden change in her decision shocked them.Joy dipped her index fingers into both of her ears to check if it was blocked by water or any other foreign object, but it was cleared. She also opened and closed her eyes in a dramatic way to see if she wasn't suffering from eye defect, but her sight was still sharp as usual.“ Haha, my sight and hearing are both perfectly okay, so I'm confused. If there is any foreign being in this body, please come out. You are confusing everyone here, so kindly leave Marie's body. What have you done to my mother, because this isn't my mother sitting down here. The mother I know cannot and will never joke with her personal space. Guys, is there something wrong with my hearing?” Joy’s facial expression and her speech contradicted each other. Her statement
“ I knew you were called earlier by Lucas in a rush, then you came back home raging with anger. You just sat there and you kept quiet since then, without telling anybody what transpired between you guys. Please talk to me, Alex. Your silence is killing me”Despite Elena's plea to hear from her husband, Alex refused to say any word to anyone. He was still boiling with anger with his eyes changing color at intervals. Although he made sure he destroyed one of Lucifer's arms, he wasn't yet satisfied with his actions. If Lucifer hadn't disappeared during the fight, he would have burnt half of his body with fire.In his mind, he had vowed to make Lucifer a handicap before his actual death. He promised himself to make him see hell before killing him. He denied him of his biological parent's love, made him a criminal, slept with his wife and used him against his blood brother.All these punishments he received from Lucifer were going through his mind when he was shooting the magical gun at L
Albert had resumed fully at work. He went to Lucifer's mansion several times but he was denied access to the house, so the manager advised him to focus on the company. He told him that his father would see him when he got healed.He just got settled in his office when he heard a knock on the door, “ Come in” he raised his voice for the person outside the door to hear him The door cracked open and a beautiful slim woman stepped in. If Albert wasn't in a serious relationship with Joy, he would have made an advance at the lady. The lady was Joan, his new secretary.“ Good morning sir. There is a man at the reception looking for you. He said his name is Adrian.” The lady revealed.At the sound of the name, something clicked in Albert's brain but he did express it on his face. “ I don't think I have ever heard of such a name before, Xavier might know him though. Please inform Xavier about the man’s presence, I'm sure he would give me the feedback.” The plan to crush Jeffrey Robinson was
“Are you saying that little brat suspected something fishy? After I already signed the transfer of ownership documents he brought with his lawyer, he still hasn't had any trust in me? Are you sure he told you to seek my permission before embarking on this project?” Lucifer questioned Xavier.Immediately after closing time, Xavier went to report the day’s activities to Lucifer, as suspected by Albert. Lucifer sat gloriously in his living room with an artificial arm placed on his amputated shoulder. The artificial arm was crafted in a way that it would take a close proximity for someone to detect it's fake.After checking the documents and hearing Xavier's report, he was still baffled that Albert hadn't trusted him. He made him his heir just to earn his trust and manipulated him, but it seemed his plans weren't working in his favor.“ He told me he knew I would report to you, so I should give him the feedback tomorrow. How he knew he was an interim CEO is still unknown to me” Xavier sai
