Gandios PubThe time was 7:05 in the evening and the Pub was buzzing with people. Within them were a few men who couldn't help looking around every now and then. They only relaxed when they caught sight of a familiar figure. One who had disguised as one of the waitresses, walked towards Queenie. "Hello, you must be Queenie Knight. I've been entrusted to lead you to the private room safely." The man said and Queenie nodded without a word. Queenie was led out of the Pub and towards a private room. "I've been waiting for you, Ms. Knight." A man said as soon as Queenie pushed the door open and walked in. The man had his face covered with a mask, so Queenie had absolutely no way to see what he looked like. "It's nice that I'm that famous. To the point even an unknown person like you knows who I am?" Queenie said with a smile and sat down opposite him. The man chuckled loudly and reached for the wine on the table. "Have a seat, let's drink while we talk." Queenie had no reason to r
Natasha stood before Queenie in all her glory. Queenie couldn't help gazing at her in amazement wondering where her sister had suddenly gotten the audacity to make such a glorious appearance. Natasha stood in front of Queenie's car, expecting the latter to step out of the car in shock. She had totally forgotten the Queenie who would've acted that way was the one who lost her memories and not the one she had grown up beside. Honk! Honk!The horns startled Natasha who wasn't expecting a thing like that. "Get the hell out of the way, lady!" Queenie yelled from her car, and kept horning. A woman standing in the middle of the road was already a strange sight to behold but when being honked at but still remained at the same position was even more shocking. Queenie side and started her car again, she me swiftly moved to the other lane and drove away. She placed a call to Jessica as soon as she was free from Natasha. "Give me the list of everyone who had gotten into the country durin
Knight's Mansion In Maile "Natasha is back?" Lucian scoffed as he pressed the phone to his left ear, "Are you sure about this?" "Yes." Lucas said from the other end. "How is Queenie taking it?" Lucian asked with a chuckle as he walked out of the elevator and straight to his office. "She still has this habit of keeping a smiley face so I have no idea how she's feeling. Do you think she's going to kill Natasha? I mean, I would kill Natasha if I were her." Lucas rasped at once and Lucian shook his head. "Queenie might be quick to anger, but she is not one to give her enemies a slow death. She must have a thrilling death all planned for that psychopathic sister of ours." He said. Lucas went silent for a few seconds before asking in a small voice, "I'm used to Queenie murdering people but killing a family member isn't something I think she should pride herself in." Lucian who had gotten into his office laughed softly, "The Lucas Knight that I know will never say something like this.
Queenie sat in one of the best restaurants in Hiltonia fiddling with the food on her plate. The chair opposite her was pulled back and someone sat on it. "Ms. Knight, I came as soon as I could." The man said with a light laugh. Queenie stopped it. She dropped her spoon and knife before picking up a serviette. Wiping her lips clean, she nodded at the man. "I would prefer it if you call me Mrs. Verlice. After all, I'm married to Pierce Verlice." She said with a light smile. The man returned the smile with a shrug. "If you say so, Mrs. Verlice. It's just that a lot of people do not really recognize your new identity since an official wedding wasn't held." Queenie kept silent and tossed the serviette aside, "I see." "Well, let's get straight to business." The man said and reached for his briefcase. He opened it and took out some papers and extended towards her. "These are all the companies under The Dragon Conglomerate." He said. Queenie collected it and went through them with a
The car was in total silence following Queenie's outburst. Although far away, Jessica could sense the sudden change in Queenie's voice. "Do you think this is Natasha's first attack?" Audrey asked slowly. Queenie said nothing but her eyes had darkened. "It doesn't matter for now. We just need to track down the men who had kidnapped him through the security footage. It has just been a few minutes, surely they mustn't have gotten that far." Jessica replied from the other side. "Okay, why don't you check it while Queenie and I go after them?" Audrey suggested and Jessica hummed. "I've requested for the airport to send me the footage for the scene." Jessica said and went silent. Then the sound of keys tapping filled the air before her voice came up again, "I just received the footage. And I've seen a plate number." Audrey glanced at Queenie for several seconds, "If we go after them now we might be able to catch up with them." Queenie nodded and dropped her phone on the dashboard. "
Lucas paced to and fro in his bedroom while Roxanne sat on the bed watching him. "What did you did?" She asked after minutes of him walking about. "Well, I asked Liam to come over to Hiltonia because I had something very important to talk to him about." He started and gulped down heavily. "I'm listening. Continue." Roxanne spoke up seconds after he stopped talking. Lucas glanced at her for some seconds before walking to the bed. He grabbed her hands tightly. "You see, Queenie has a really violent temper and she has killed people who did little to hurt her than all the attempts Natasha had made to kill her." Roxanne raised a brow, trying to understand what he was implying, she asked, "So you're afraid Queenie will kill Natasha?" "Exactly!" Lucas smiled dryly, "Queenie will kill Natasha if we do nothing. It's just a matter of time." "I have no problem with Queenie murdering Natasha. And I don't think you should be. Besides, you should be thinking of what her reaction will be whe
Knight Mansion In Maile Jacobs Knight sat in the living room going through his early morning newspaper when Lucian walked down the stairs on a call. "Why would Queenie shoot you?" He scoffed to the person on the other end. "If you really want me to help you, then you have to be truthful to me because Queenie will never shoot you because of a reason like that." He huffed. "What's going on?" Jacobs, whose attention had long been taken after he heard him mention Queenie's name, asked. Lucian paused and glanced at him. "Good morning, dad. Queenie shot Lucas." "Oh, what did he do this time?" The man asked with a light smile. "He has refused to tell me. Keeps beating around the bush." Lucian sighed and placed the call on loudspeaker. "Turns out I'm not the only one curious about what you did. Dad also is." He spoke to Lucas.Lucas stayed silent. Ever since the incident where he bolted out of the house two years before, he hadn't spoken to his father. Lucian was about to give up, wh
The Knight's Mansion was filled with people of different caliber. Jacobs Knight laid quietly in his coffin, clad in a black suit like he had always worn when he was alive. Amidst the activities going on, Queenie towered above her father's coffin, turning the lighter in her hand on and off. She sighed several minutes after and dipped the lighter into her pocket. "Jacobs Knight. How could you leave without saying goodbye to me. We literally fought every day of my life and you had the nerve to leave without putting on a hard fight. How cute of you." She chuckled and dipped her hands into her pockets afterwards. Suddenly, she reached out and touched the hole in the middle of his head. While she was admiring it, Pierce walked up to her and stood beside her. He looked down at her hand which wouldn't stop caressing Jacobs' forehead. "Whoever did that sgot at a close range." He said and Queenie nodded. "I know. I also know they murdered the entire staffs and right now, that is making
Pierce walked out of the bathroom with a towel tied loosely around his waist. Queenie who had been sulking on the bed raised her eyes to say something but it got stuck in her throat seeing his chiseled muscles.It also occurred to her this was the most intimate she had ever been with Pierce. Her body heated up at the thought of that and she groaned in displeasure. She was supposed to be angry but she was horny instead. Pierce had no idea what was going on with her but he did notice her frown deepened every passing second. "Queenie, are you alright?" He asked slowly and she snapped out of her thoughts. However, she ignored him. The man chuckled to himself and walked to the clothes he had taken off before going to have his bath. He took out something and handed it over to her. "Just like I thought, you were the one with the diary." She mumbled as she took it. "Yes. I came across it once in her office and decided to take it. Unfortunately, when I read the part regarding the formula,
Velon managed to get them through the corridor undetected. Queenie practically limped the whole time but quietly. However, just before they got to the elevator, they saw a green light and froze. There was someone inside. There was no time for them to decide as the elevator dinged open and Henry walked out of it. His face scrunched over when he realized what was going on and he immediately raised an alarm. "Who are you and who gave you the go ahead order to move them?" His sharp voice echoed throughout the empty corridor. Velon and Queenie felt movements towards them and sighed silently. Just like that, their perfect escape had been ruined by a lousy mouth relative. Despite her weak state, she tried to move when Velon held her back. "If you do that they'll get you again. Just get into the elevator." Upon hearing him, Henry scoffed and stood guard in front of the elevator door. Taking Queenie down would've been an impossible task but at this point, he knew she was beyond weak and
"But I still don't understand what the talk has to do with your plan with the formula for more drugs." Queenie scoffed, turning her face back to Mishael. "True. I've deviated from my storyline." The man replied, flashing an apologetic smile. "My father spent all his life's savings on Transformers because he knew he'd get more out of the product. The Transformers' drugs boost the human body. Increases things like speed, retention ability and some special abilities one might acquire as a side effect." "So you're trying to tell me you plan on doing the same thing which caused my mother to burn down the laboratory in the first place?" Queenie asked just to be sure and the man nodded. "It's called, continuing the family's legacy." Mishael enunciated and walked back to where he dropped his bottle of bourbon. "What if they don't find it?" Queenie asked as he filled his cup again. He only gave a dark chuckle. "I don't mind doing the same thing my father did." "Bring children and use the
Texas Velon returned home after being released by Queenie. He first had his son released but as he looked down at the boy, his heart skipped when he realized there was no resemblance between. "Daddy, those people took mommy away." Matt said, tears brewing in his eyes. He hadn't forgotten the sight he saw that day. "We'll go to mommy now. Don't cry." Velon consoled snapping out of his world.He grabbed the boy and took him into his arms. Just to affirm that Queenie was just messing with him, he stopped by a hospital and had them run a paternity test. "The result will be out in an hour, sir." The doctor told him. Then his eyes settled on Matt. "You have a handsome boy." "Thank you." Velon replied and led Matt out of the hospital. "The results can also be sent to your email in case you don't make it here on time. It's always more convenient." The doctor added with a smile. Finding no harm in it, Velon gave the doctor his email address before leaving. He found the police station w
Lucas and Audrey turned to see Deborah standing behind them with a smile. The most baffling thing was that they had no idea when she arrived. "How long have you been here?" Lucas asked, turning to her fully. Deborah flicked her wristwatch and stared at the time for a few seconds before raising her head again, "Three minutes. Just enough to kill you both and dump your bodies in the middle of the sea."If she was trying to scare them, she didn't succeed as they just stared at her blankly. "What are you doing here?" Deborah asked again, furrowing his brows in displeasure. "I worked for your parents. Of course I had to attend your father's funeral." Deborah replied with a snicker. "They gave you away. Frankly speaking, you don't look like you care about him." Lucas continued saying while Audrey watched silently. "You're right." Deborah chuckled, "I came to be sure Queenie won't run with the medicine she purified. It's unfortunate that Mishael now has his hands on her." "Mishael? Li
Mishael turned off his phone and turned his attention back to Queenie. David stood by the side with tears in his eyes. Just a few minutes ago, Mishael had suddenly instructed him to strung up Queenie and hit her. He had obeyed since he was hypnotized. "You know you don't have to make him watch as you hit me." Queenie who had regained her breath said. Mishael picked up his glass and walked close to her. "Then where's the fun?" Queenie sighed and lowered her head. "You do know they might not find the diary, don't you?" "Yes, I do." "That's good to know. What do you intend to do when they don't find it?" She asked and the man grinned crazily. "I intend to cut off your body parts for every hour it takes them to find it. It'll be a really unfortunate sight if they don't hand me that diary." Mishael replied, taking a slip from his cup. "I can help you find it. My mother stayed away from home almost all the time. So I made it a habit to follow her thinking she was cheating on my dad.
Knight's Mansion Natasha watched the funeral from a reasonable distance. She turned and headed back to her room when a hand reached out and dragged her into a corner. "It's me." Lucian shushed Natasha who was about to become violent making her freeze momentarily. She looked up to see her three elder brothers looking down at her with stoic looks. This was the closest she had been with them ever since they grew up. "I didn't come to cause Queenie any harm." She told them after a minute passed with none of them saying anything. However, her words were far from what Lucas needed to hear. He opened his mouth to say something. Fortunately, Lucian beat him to it. "When did you become so close to Queenie?"Natasha looked up at them silently. It was clear from the look in her eyes she wanted nothing other than to run away from them. But that only made the protective brothers curious. "I'm sorry but I'm not supposed to be discussing that with you." She told them after their gazes became
Queenie's pupils dilated as soon as she heard that name. "Now, give me the envelope." David said afterward and Queenie reluctantly gave it to him. There was no debating it. If she resisted, David would kill himself and Mishael would send someone else after her. If she still refused to hand it over, the same thing would keep repeating. David glanced at the envelope quickly before putting it into his suit pocket. Then he glanced up at her and said, "Mishael says thank you." He got up and lowered his gun. "Mishael, that bastard!" She groaned, trying her best to rein the anger within her. How Mishael had manipulated David to be so stupid was what baffled her. "Give me the gun." She told him but the boy shook his head with a confused look. "I don't want to give it to you." "Then point it at me before I get my hands on you." David had an even more confusing look on his face when he heard her. He glanced at his gun again and tried to point it at her but realized he couldn't. "Queen
"When did you find out?" Lucas asked. "Yesterday during my talk with Deborah." Queenie replied, "When did you two get your information as well?" "Oh, from Mary Leicester. She was one of the founding members of the experiment." Roxanne retorted. Lucas also nodded in agreement. "In as much as I want to continue this discussion, I have a father and a husband to mourn. After this funeral, I'll get to the bottom of all this." Queenie sighed and got up. Lucas and Roxanne also took that as their cue to leave and left as soon as Queenie made her way into her closet. "You think she's really affected by Pierce's demise?" Roxanne asked sadly as they walked in the corridor. "I don't know." Lucas said, at a loss at what to say. Queenie had always been one who hated revealing her emotions to people. He could imagine how hard it was for her. Not only had she lost the only father figure she had, she also lost her husband on the day of her father's funeral. Anyone would be racked up with pain.
