"What problem?" Mark sighed as he asked slowly."The four families are on the move. They are afraid that you'll do something so they want to act fast." Alfred replied."What's their plan?" Mark frowned. He had not expected the four families to move in such a hurry. He had thought that they were going to keep calm and just watch everything happen.But then he didn't expect everything to go wayward which meant something or someone was the driving force."Could it be Ma'am Elizabeth?" Mark frowned as he muttered under his breath.He just couldn't think of another person who had such capabilities to make the four families move. Even though she wasn't going to threaten them, he was sure that she must have found some way to manipulate them into doing her bidding.Ma'am Elizabeth was more cunning than he had thought. He needed to be careful or else he was going to be affected. But then what the hell was he going to do?It was now it dawned on him, what had just happened at the company was no
Mark smiled bitterly as he brought out his phone. He was sure that the people who were following him were sent by the four families and that something significant was about to happen.Well whatever they were thinking, he was going to thwart their plans and make them regret attacking him in the first place. Also, ma'am Elizabeth, he was going to do something to her. But the problem was that he wanted to make it legal.According to his calculations, Ma'am Elizabeth should be called to court the next day and yet she had time to run amok. How audacious? It seems like she had no fear of anything. Well, it was none of Mark's business.He was going to do whatever was on his mind. He couldn't afford to wait any longer. The longer he waited, the more his life was in danger and he had to do something too, or else he wouldn't know when he died."Young master." Alfred's panicked voice came from the other end of the phone immediately after the call was connected."There are some people following me
(THE NEXT MORNING)"Mmmmm," Michelle muttered as her eyes fluttered open. At the moment, she felt refreshed and it was as if she had slept for many days. It had been a long time since she had such a deep sleep."Where I'm I?" She muttered as she looked around.Michelle could care less about where she was as she needed to go to work. Thinking about this, the memories of last night poured into her head. It was then she remembered that DL Motors had been blown up.Next, tears flowed out of Michelle's face as she realized she was in the hospital. She fainted after getting to the scene the night before. Who the hell had blown up the company she worked hard to improve?She was never going to forgive the person. She didn't know how Mark was going to feel now that his company had blown up. She was sure that Mark was in even greater pain than she was.He was the owner of the company and had invested much into it and yet it had ended up being blown up. How was she going to comfort him when she
It seems like she had underestimated Mark's communication a lot and even after all she had done, he was still able to manage a court summons.Ma'am Elizabeth trembled from anger as she read through the content of the letter. The first court session was scheduled to be the next day and it was sure to hold. No one would be able to stop it.Well, then she wasn't going to run away from it. She was going to be at the Court the next day and see what Mark was going to do."Mum, what's wrong, why do you look pale?" Philip frowned, noticing the unnatural expression on his mother's face."It's nothing, take a look at this." Ma'am Elizabeth smiled, passing the court summons over to Phillip."A court summons?" Philip froze seeing the content of the letter. He was just as shocked as his mother. But the difference was that he didn't know who had sent the court order but his mother knew."Mum, who sent the court order?" Philip frowned as he looked at his mother. "It's Mark." Ma'am Elizabeth sighed
"Mark, are you all right?" Michelle called out to Mark as she tried to wake him up."Mmmm," Mark muttered as his eyes fluttered open."What's wrong Mark, you've been sleeping for the whole day?" Michelle frowned as she stared at Mark.Mark frowned as he sat up and looked outside only to see that the sun was just rising."Michelle, what's wrong, I've only just slept not long?" Mark frowned wondering why Michelle had come to wake him up."Take a look at this." Michelle frowned as she showed Mark the date on her phone."Fuck!" Mark cursed as he was suddenly awake fully and looked around. It was then it dawned on him that he had slept for the whole day. It was no wonder why Michelle was acting strange.Michelle on the other hand was wondering what was wrong with Mark as he had been sleeping ever since they came back from the hospital. She had no other choice but to wake up when he refused to stand up the next day.She had already accepted the reality that the company had blown up and ther
Michelle looked up in shock hearing the judge's voice. She couldn't understand what was happening. Well then it wasn't her fault, she had been lost talking to Philip and then Alfred, so she wouldn't know."Ma'am, the argument between the two attorneys was getting quite heated so the Judge had to call for order and also." One of the men whispered into Michelle's ears after receiving the signal from Alfred.Michelle nodded after getting an understanding of what had happened. All she hoped was that Mark was going to win. She wanted him to have solace and hopefully, he was going to when he won the case.Soon the court proceeded as it should have and in no time it became boring for Michelle to watch as she couldn't understand a thing again.Alfred smiled as he took on the liberty to explain what was happening to Michelle. Michelle couldn't help but be shocked when she heard what Alfred was saying. So it turned out everything was deeper than she had expected.It seems like Mark hadn't told
(A WEEK LATER)It had been a week since the end of the first Court session. Another Court Session would be held the next day. During that week, Mark had received tens of assassination attacks but he had always managed to escape.But then even if he fought the assassin Headon, he always didn't manage to catch him as the assassin would slip away which frustrated him a lot. He was sure that it was Ma'am Elizabeth who was planning all of this.Even though he was sure about this, he didn't have any proof of his claim so he had allowed the matter to stay low. During that time, Michelle had always been with him and wouldn't go out.If she was going to head out, then she would be accompanied by Alfred's guards which made Mark quite at ease. Also, ma'am, Elizabeth wasn't crazy to bring the assassination attempts down to the house and could only attack when Mark was out.Mark had tons of work to do so he couldn't avoid going out and also he wouldn't allow Alfred's men to follow him as he was ra
(THE NEXT MORNING)"I hope you've been well during the whole week." Mark greeted as he flashed a mischievous smile at Ma'am Elizabeth and Rodrigo.The two had unexpectedly met at the entrance of the court that morning and there was surely some tension. But Mark being who he was wouldn't miss the chance to tease Ma'am Elizabeth.He knew Ma'am Elizabeth might be ignorant of what he was capable of doing, but he was sure that her husband wasn't the same. The man knew for sure what he was capable of.Ma'am Elizabeth's heart shook seeing Mark's smile but she quickly hid it as she glared at Mark."I too wonder if your week has been good so far." She smiled, unwilling to give up."Well, it's been good, but then constantly having to escape from death is such a tiring thing." Mark sighed.Ma'am Elizabeth's brow furrowed as she stared at Mark but she didn't say anything."Let's say maybe it's because the death isn't competent enough that was why I was able to escape." Mark frowned as he added a
