"Are you okay?" Sophia flared the parting of her lips rising.Sofia also knew too well the implications of what she was doing, but she was just too weak to head out.Not when she was going to be drawing too much attention from men. "That's going to get the Leonard guy extremely jealous." She muttered to herself but not loud enough for Sophia to hear what she just said."Our company is running weak Sofie, we might still be powerful that wasn't going to happen in the longest world.That was the reason that they wanted Sofia to get married into a family that was going to be powerful enough before anyone was going to notice and come after their family.Their hearts ached towards the fact that Sofia was mostly cold to the men who came after all. She was never at all interested."Why does it have to be me, Sophia? I don't like anyone of them." Her stand was firm as she spoke.The brows of Sophia's eyes farrowed. "Have you ever liked anyone?" She inquired."Well." She was a little bit shor
The hall had already been decorated. The designs of the walls and all the interiors were magnificent. Showing the exclusive taste of the heir.Even though most people who gained access to this place were mostly men of the upper class in society, they could not help but stand lost as they Continued to stare at this stunning sight that lay before them.The only that was left was for the heir to make the grandest entry into the hall and it turned out that there was still an hour left before that would happen.So for now, the hall was dull even with all the glitters. But that was until a lady stepped into the hall. Golded in splendor, her skin was as smooth as silk, making hearts race and heads turn. Mati was dressed in golden attire. Gotten by her cousin who had been able to gain access to the exclusive section, with the promise that she was going to be extremely rewarded if their plans eventually worked out.. At least they had been able to get a few Jews from a distant cousin that th
Dave walked straight right up into the hall. He had been informed by his father that there was going to be a dinner prepared for the heir.He wasn't around after all and who else could the heir be apart from him? He was just going to go there and take over what was rightfully his.Meanwhile, after Leonard heard these words, his hands were forged into a ball. He stood up from the point that he was standing, getting Raymond even more confused than he was already."Where are you going, young master?" Raymond could not help but inquire since he was extremely confused but Leonard did not give any response.Rather he went ahead to ask the question that had been longing in his mind all this while. "If he isn't here to say Hello, then what is his motive?" He inquired."Before your grandfather regretted his decision, Dave's father has always been the one overseeing the company.But that was until a year ago. He was caught in some financial crime. Enough to have built his own company so they we
The two guards drew closer towards Leonard but to the surprise of everyone, he didn't shake, even for a single moment."We are going to spare you. If you go back to our young master and apologize." They said,"Yeah. He should do that and save his life as soon as he can." The cleaner said, already shivering on his behalf."You don't have to say that Sia. I am sure that he is going to take the opportunity with open arms." The older one said."But what is he still waiting for? Should he be doing so already?" Another one of them said.But instead, Leonard decided to go contrary to their words and he crossed his hands over his chest and said."So what? Your master is rich so should I be shivering? Shaky like a baby? Oh my! I am so scared.You know how that is going to happen, hit your head hard on the wall and go to bed. Maybe the pain is going to be potent enough to make you come back to your senses." He replied.Rumbles of shock ran through the spine of everyone that was gathered around.
Dave lunged at Leonard who anticipated this move and sidestepped him immediately. He was not expecting that move so he stumbled almost hitting the ground causing the audience to laugh at his failure.Enraged and saddled with a mixture of shame, he decided to still make sure that he landed a jab at Leonard. That was the only thing that could make him settle. Leonard noticed his stance and chuckled at him, " Whatever your name is, don't you think that you're doing a tad bit too much? It's not right for someone like you to be involved in dirty fights like this. I mean, after all you say that you are greater than I am." He said in a mocking tone. Dave balled his fists, his eyes narrowing in anger as he stared at the man who tried to show that he was wiser than him. "I'll teach you a lesson that you'll never forget!" He yelled.Leonard grins at the sheer folly the man was causing for himself. " I don't think that your investors would be happy seeing such a high profile man like you runni
Without further Ado, he exits the party ground and walks to a cab that's waiting for him outside. He was doing all he could to make sure that no one figured out who he actually was. As he was walking, he heard his name and he turned swiftly shocked to see Sofia bundling towards him. " Hey,..." She whispered when she arrived at his side.Leonardo looked her up and down in subtle assessment and she felt shivers run down her spine. He surely didn't care for her. She deduced. "I came to see you." She muttered and facepalmed internally at the ridiculousness of her words. Of course, she could see him. She had been searching for him almost everywhere."Okay..." Leonard trailed off hurrying her up. As things stood right now, he didn't have the luxury of time to have a conversation without any direction. "Miss... I'd suggest you speak now..." He trailed off.Sofia stared at the man in front of her, he was not even staring at her like an attractive woman she was. This was the man that her hea
Leonard arrived at the hospital in a few minutes. He was so happy to see his sister slowly from the bed."Hello, dear." He said and put his hands in his pocket with a small smile on his face. His sister smiled weakly as she tried to lift herself up only to collapse on the bed. "Easy, I don't think you should be making any move so soon." He chided her softly.His sister grinned in response. She could have sworn that she was feeling a tad bit energetic a few minutes ago but at this point, she didn't know what happened to her.He walked closer to her bed and held her hands. Relief and happiness washed over him. His little sister was finally free from illness, she could live her life as she pleased. He sat on her bed and waited a bit before speaking. "I'm so glad that you are alive." He whispered and hugged her slightly."Yeah, me too." His sister croaked. When she thought about the surgery, she had fears that she could die but alas it came out successfully which she was highly grateful
Leonard took a quick stop at the shopping mall so that he could change into something more presentable. Going home before arriving here was going to prove to be stressful, so in a bid to beat time.He purchased an expensive Italian suit and paired it with a pair of Armani shoes, and dark shades. They were very important for him to look on top of his game."Your card please." The receptionist replied and he handed it over to her immediately because he didn't want to talk about anything. The cashier stared at the card immediately and her eyes widened in surprise. It was almost as though she was dreaming. The handler of the car didn't look very much presentable. How was she sure that she didn't steal it?Leonard, noticing what must have gone wrong, stared at her with a wicked stare wondering what was her problem, daring her to mention a word. "Here you go, sir." The cashier responded and he collected his goods. If he had the time, he would have made sure that he taught her a lesson for
