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
“ My father wanted me to decide the amount to invest in this project? That's strange. Anyways, I can't think of a specific amount now, how about you give me a suggestion?” Albert knew Lucifer was trying to play him, so he tactically threw it back to Xavier to decide.Xavier watched Albert carefully for a few seconds, ‘ What is going through this brat head? Why didn't he think of something? Well, I will teach him a lesson. Let's see if he would agree with this suggestion” he thought “ Xavier! I asked you something” Albert shouted to gain back his attention when he noticed he was lost in thought “ Oh sorry sir. We need a substantial amount for this project and if we pull it from the Company's fund, it might wreck the company totally and this will chase away our remaining investors. I don't want us to disappoint our investors, so I suggest we use the company as a collateral to borrow money from the bank. Then after the oil and gas company gains ground, we can refund the money back to t
“ Good morning Mr Albert, Adrian and his team are waiting for us downstairs. Shall we go now?” Albert closed his laptop and he smiled, “Sure, let's go”Although he didn't know what Alex and Lucas's plan was, he still put his trust in them. Xavier and Albert drove in Albert's car. They followed Adrian’s car , then he led them to the Oil grill location.“ This will be your first project as the CEO of Robinson's Company, your father will be very proud of you” Albert looked at Xavier and he shook his head, “ I wouldn't want to take all the compliments and the glory, because most of the work was done by you. Robinson's Company is very lucky to have a dedicated manager like you, keep it up.”Adrian’s car moved at a high speed because the location of the oil grill was far. They drove for about an hour before they got to a high fence with a gigantic gate at the entrance. This fence encompasses a olarge expanse of land located at the outskirt of the city.Adrian parked his car in front of
“ Goodbye Lucifer!” As Lucifer heard these words from his son, he became furious. He knew he had lost his son forever but he wasn't ready to give up.“ No matter what it takes, I must get this boy to be on my side.” He thought, then he switched his attention back to Xavier, who was still on the phone with him.“ I don't know how you want to do it, but you must get my company back. Use any method possible to regain back my money from those scumbags. If you fail to give me any positive report, I will have your head on a platter” He threatened, then he disconnected the call “ Haa!, This can't be! How could someone successfully dupe me without any stress? Have I lost my power and sense of reasoning because of my lost arm? Why didn't I see this coming? Damn!” He hit his left hand on the wall before he remembered it's an artificial arm.“ Ouch! Shit! Shit! I will never accept defeat. I can't go down like this, I must do something. Justin has to let go of this dark magic by force. Snake! Sn
“ My Joy, in trouble? Wha..what did the caption say?” Albert stammered.“ Okay, let me check…It says; come to this specific location if you want your daughter alive. Failure to do so in the next forty-eight hours, her corpse will be sent to you” “ How did she get captured? She is a great witch for goodness sake, how?” Albert yelled, then he threw his phone across the room.Alex hurried to his side, then he found forced him to sit down.“ You have to calm down. We will think of…” His statement was cut short by Albert's ringing tone.He dashed to pick up the almost shattered phone, but he was met with silence from the other end.“ Hello! Who is this please?” Still with no response, he lost his patience.“ If you can't speak, then get the hell away from me and don't try to call this number ever again” He screamedHis scream sounded like a joke to the caller, as the person bursted into a maniac laugh.“ Hello boy. You sounded so tough earlier on the phone, why is your voice shaking? Is t
