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
The men turned their heads immediately and stared at him as he walked in. No one coyote recognized him before today, hence the reason for their shock. It must have hit them right in the chest when they saw the least expected person to walk in. Li Yuan, the lead china investor rose to his feet, stretched forth his hand as Leonard approached the seat. "I'm guessing you were the one we are waiting for. It's a pleasure to meet with you, Mr...?" He trailed off, waiting for Leonard to introduce himself."Just call me L." Leonard replied and gripped the man's hand firmly, showing that he was in control. "Good day, gentlemen." He said to the other of the men who were present. They seemed like his cohorts. Li Yuan adjusted his glasses on his eyes "Welcome, sir." He said and Leonard didn't say anything. Leonard went to the seat. "May we begin this discussion, gentlemen." He said and drew out his Notebook to scribble something on it. His eyes scanned their files and went through it. "So, I h
It was barely noon but he was already so tired that he just wanted to take a quick shower and rest. Trying to get acquainted with the life that he has gotten was a lot on its own. The past few weeks took him from being a mere pauper, who could barely take care of himself and sister, and now he was living in a mansion.The things he only thought of in imagination turned out in reality and it shocked him more. He threw his jacket on the king sized bed before walking into the bathroom. He stood under the shower still in his shirt and trouser and it was like that for a while.There was now a huge responsibility on him; his sister and the line of companies that he now owned. Looking at the way things were going, he would be adding more.His phone in the room began to ring, but he wouldn't budge from the bathroom. Whoever was calling would have to wait but after a while it continued to ring.With a loud groan, he made his way to the bedside stand in his bathroom, and muzzed hair. “Hello" h
It was as if the world was spinning when he saw his sister laying helpless on the bed. He watched as the Doctor rushed in quickly, not minding who was in the room before he started on work on Lucy's limp body. All he could feel was panic. Panic and rage. If anything happened to his sister, he wasn't sure of he would be able to compory himself."Doctor," he finally managed to say as he was trying his best to suppress the rage that was so full. "what's happening? Why is she unconscious?"The doctor, who was a short man, looked hesitant. "I apologize, Mr. Leonard, there seems to be a complication. We're doing everything we can," he stammered, clearly seeing that Leonard could do anything to him."Do your job," Leonard snapped angrily, as he started to walk back and forth. The doctor must have sensed that if he stayed any further, he would be used as a scapegoat. He hurriedly did his work, before skittering out of tht room and the only thing that could be hear was the rhythmic beeping o
"I don't know what I should do with, you dimwits." Wiles began to walk to and fro the room, his right hand constantly on the gold ring on his left finger. His hair looked as if it hadn't be washed for ages and he was wearing mismatched footwear. No one paid attention to it, more important things were on ground to solve.The shorter man, Green, looked at his counterpart, Bruno, who gave him a little nod. "Boss, it wasn't how we planned it. If things went according to pl—""Keep that gutter that you call a mouth shut or I would help you do it. What do you mean by that? Tell me!." Wiles stopped pacing angrily, before walking over to where the men knelt, their heads bowed. "What did I hire you for? To be caught and taken to the police station, right?""We are sorry, boss. We can make it up to you. It wouldn't take time to just go back. No one would be expecting..." Bruno's voice trailed over as he looked up to find his boss looking at him with disdain.Not minding what would happen, he ca
The first thing that hit her nostrils and summoned around her like a warm hug was the aroma of sizzling meat and still simmering stews when she entered the well decorated restaurant. Her stomach made a low rumble as if wanting the food immediately. Her twin was so used to making her run errands when it came to food, bless her soul. Not that she had a choice not to, her father was always backing up her twin as long as she come up with an excuse.Scanning the whole restaurant, she couldn't help but open her mouth in awe. This was where her sister frequently came to, which meant she has been enjoying. A young man who had s mop of unruly brown hair and a lopsided smile walked towards her."Good evening, beautiful," he greeted, his voice was as smooth as butter. "Table for one tonight?"If not that her sister had told her about the restaurant's flirtatious staff, she would have given the guy something he would not like. "Actually, it's for a very demanding patient who happens to be my si
The loud whirl of the fan was the first thing that she heard before she felt something vibrate on her king sized bed. Without opening her eyes, she began to use her left hand to search frantically for her phone, which was obviously the cause of the disturbance. The vibration stopped immediately her hand found the phone under the heap of clothes that she had dropped on the bed earlier. Struggling to open her eyes, she peeped to check the caller ID and let out a loud groan. Not wanting to be disturbed again, she tried to switch off her phone, still half asleep. Her phone resumed vibrating again, and the shock of it caused her to pick. “Matilda Anna Montez, how many times have I told you to call me as soon as you are off the plane? Tell me how many times?” Matilda groaned inwardly, stretching the phone away from her ears as her mother's voice boomed loudly through the phone. It was only her mother that took delight in calling her by her full name, the whole thing and she mostly call
