A Deal With Pierce Verlice You Have Me Exactly Where You Want Me
Lucas stared at Pierce with a creased brow. "Were you about to–" Pierce rubbed the back of his head slightly. "You said you found Velon Aspen and his wife, Alicia?" "Yes, people admitted to seeing them after they left Maile but after that, they seemed to have disappeared." Lucas said, going through the files in his hand. He suddenly stopped and looked up at Pierce, "Do you think my father was responsible for their disappearance? I mean, my father is vengeful." "We need to do more digging." Pierce said as he took the papers. "I did everything I needed to do to get this information." Lucas sighed. "That means someone has destroyed information about them. Do you think they are perhaps dead?" Pierce asked with a scoff. "Don't worry, I'll look into it more." Lucas replied and walked down the stairs again. Perlice sat back on the chair and flipped through the pages of the paper until she got to the last page that highlighted the last place Velon appeared in. He frowned and glanced

It took Queenie fifteen to make up her mind about returning to Hiltonia. She made a trip to Lucian's room first before discovering he's not around. She didn't bother checking Lawrence's room which was just opposite Lucian's and headed towards Lucas'. "Lucas?" She called when she got to his door. She waited for a few seconds and when she got no response, she raised her hand attempting to knock a second time when the door swung open and he appeared. Thankfully, she hadn't leaned into the act fully or she'd have tumbled on the floor but she did lose her balance. "You could've just answered from inside." She sighed and glared at him. Lucas bit the insides of his mouth and chuckled, "It only took me thirty seconds to answer. What if I had left you for a minute?" "Trust me, I'd have barged in." She replied and found her way inside his room. She immediately noticed the papers which were scattered all over his table and his table which was switched on showing a report about a murder.

Lucian scoffed and took the chip. He observed it for a while and tossed it back to her. "Thankfully, it doesn't have a listening device. Which means Lawrence is their eyes and ears. But then that leaves us with the question, how did they get to him?" "I don't know but Lawrence has been busy. He's been acting super weird these few days. I'm thinking that's when they got to him." Lucas said. "I think the people who murdered father are the ones holding Liam in captivity. Anyone who isn't afraid of the Knight or the Verlice can only be the Cobras." Queenie butted in. The two men glanced at themselves with a sigh. Lucas reached out and grabbed the chip in Queenie's hand. "I need to see if there's a way I can locate this back to them. You know, just to be sure." He turned and walked back to his room. Lucian was about to walk out when he stopped and turned to her, "Were you really going to leave?" Queenie opened her mouth to say something but later shook her head, "Yes." "I hope you

"So, what's the plan?" Pierce asked as he stopped his car meters away from the registrar's office. "It'll be a little suspicious if I just walk in there and demand to see a marriage certificate. So, I'll be the distraction while you go in and steal it." She replied, looking at him. Pierce scratched his nose awkwardly. "There's nothing wrong with the plan, is there?" She asked notifying his awkwardness. "No, there isn't. It's just how the dignified Pierce Verlice has been reduced to stealing documents in the registrar's office." He replied with a pained smile. "Just view it as one of life's crazy moments." Queenie replied with a laugh and tapped him on the shoulder, "There are some clothes for you on the back seat." The man nodded and extended his hand backward to grab it. He pulled on the hoodie, changed his shoes to a boot and covered his face with a mask. "I'll get down here where they are no cameras while you drive to the front of the office." He said and got down. He soon

Roxanne was the first to walk closer to him. She stared at him for some seconds before shaking her head. Then she turned to Audrey and Jessica. "He looks familiar but I can't remember where I once met him. Any luck?" She tsked. Audrey walked past them without another word. Roxanne shrugged and walked behind her. "Raphael Dean, your presence is something I'm not happy about." Jessica said as soon as they had gone into the elevator. Raphael looked down at the flower in his hand before extending it to her. "At least take the gift I got for you." Jessica stared down at it, "Would you prefer to throw that into the trashcan yourself or I should do it for you?" The man stared at her for a while before chuckling. Nevertheless, he handed it to her and she threw it into the bin. "Now, I have something to attend to." She said and attempted to walk away from him when he held her back. "I was invited to the auction. And as it turns out, I need to come with a date." He said. "I'm sorry, b

Roxanne and Jessica sighed deeply. Nonetheless, they agreed and walked back to the car. "So what do we do now?" Jessica asked after a moment of silence. Audrey sighed deeply and looked outside the car, "There's no way to trace whoever it was that took Velon. But we can ask around the neighborhood for anyone that is close to Velon. At least, they have to be someone he was close to." "But first of all, we need to change our clothes so we can be more effective. I wouldn't want to go around the neighborhood drenched in dirty water." Roxanne agreed. Jessica nodded and started the car again. On their way, her phone rang. "Did you find Velon's whereabouts?" Queenie asked from the other end. Jessica placed the phone on loudspeaker as soon as she picked it. Upon hearing her question, Jessica turned to Audrey who shook her head slightly. She focused back on the road and replied, "We are on it. We will get him to you before you know it.""Alright." Queenie concluded and hung up. …Maile

Liam didn't reply immediately and Marcus took that time to continue taunting him. "Although she promised to agree to my demand, I doubt she'd be successful." He sighed, pulling a long face, "You see, Jacobs Knight died a few days ago and his children have been thinking of finding the culprits." Liam still said nothing. Seeing this, Marcus frowned deeply. "You're gonna die one way or the other, Liam Verlice. Even your elder brother can't help you at the moment because he's with Queenie and neither can the Verlices. You're helpless." Marcus further said. Liam finally looked into his eyes and sighed, "I'm I supposed to be scared? Or do you expect me to beg you when you've already made up your mind to kill me?" Missing the sarcasm in his voice, Marcus shrugged with a slight smile, "Who knows, I might have a change of heart." "If you kill me, you'll never have any leverage to control Queenie again. So just shut your mouth and think of how to draw her in here." Liam scoffed. His word

"Ah, look who's back." Leonard was the first to say something as he glanced back at the couple with a smile. Although everyone could tell it wasn't a genuine smile, Leonard just didn't care. Queenie who had taken her daughter up walked past Chloe and Jeffery and walked up the stairs. She hadn't been to the house before but she could remember which room was which because the Verlice had built the house with the same pattern as the one they had built in Maile when she was a child. She remembered there was a room where she played with Pierce back then and headed towards it. She got to it to see elderly Mrs. Verlice reading goodnight stories to the two boys and by the looks of it, they seemed to be feeling drowsy. So instead of walking in, she held onto her daughter and walked down the stairs where she met elderly Mr. Verlice on the way. "Queenie." The man exclaimed when he saw her and smiled broadly, stretching his wrinkles. "I didn't know you were going to come." "It was an impro

A Deal With Pierce Verlice Epilogue
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,
A Deal With Pierce Verlice Look Who's Alive
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
A Deal With Pierce Verlice Finally Realizing What Queenie's Plan Is
"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
A Deal With Pierce Verlice You Were No Better Than Me
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
A Deal With Pierce Verlice There's Something We Don't Know
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
A Deal With Pierce Verlice You Are Both Wrong
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.
A Deal With Pierce Verlice Your Mother's Diary In Exchange For Queenie
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
A Deal With Pierce Verlice There's Nothing In Your Mother's Diary
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
A Deal With Pierce Verlice He Said You Were Going To Ask
"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.
