A sudden sweat engulf everyone as they watch their Boss pace furiously in the living room, clenching and unclenching his fist with gritted teeth.Salvador, who was seated on the couch, had a smirk on his face as he watches him pace furiously without a word from him. He was thrilled a girl in her early twenties could play him, and escape.Lorenzo sent out the giant's to check around the vicinity for Charlotte. He woke up and couldn't find her and the other giant. It's been past two hours since they went looking for her, and has not returned.Salvador got fed up waiting, and stood up from the couch. He came for a different purpose, only to find them in such a state and had to keep his calm until everything has been sorted out."I will be on my way, perhaps I will return later in the day." He said, and picked up his cap."Are you not supposed to wait, and see if happens to the girl?" He asked, with a scorn look, trying to keep his calm.Salvador smiled, and put on his cap, then turn to g
"He did not listen when I asked him to cut ties with her, now look at what she put him into, I can't believe she would do such a thing to him."Jane nag continuously, raining cusses on Arya. Nate was found in a hotel room, his clothes were stripped off.The figure Antonio ordered to follow Nate behind succeeded in finding him in a hotel room, laying lifelessly.He quickly took Nate home, and tracked Arya, but couldn't find her. She was not in her apartment, and most of her stuff has been moved out.Antonio could no longer listen to her nagging. He hit the stool close to him, and stood up."Quiet Woman, he is not dead, the doctor said he will be fine, why are you so impatient?""Impatient? I can't believe you would ask such an obvious question, you're the one who is impatient and greedy."The door to the room flung open, and the doctor strode inside with a tight-lipped smile. He heard them from outside, and feigned not to know what was going on."Mr and Mrs Antonio, the test results ar
"You got rid of your father because you were never punished? Can you hear yourself speak? That company and houses you were so obsessed to take over were never his, he was living a luxurious life under someone's name." Mr Xi exclaimed.At this point, he was not sure of what to tell him, and make him believe their father left nothing behind.Antonio scoffed. "Don't you dare bring that up, I know this is your way of trying to make up stories for me to believe father left nothing for us."Antonio retorted, staring dagger's at his brother, with his mouth slightly parted.They were both staring intensely at each other, when they heard a knock on the door, and had to look away, without a response. The figure knocked again, and without waiting for their validation, he pushed the door open.To their surprise, it was Franco, their father's lawyer, who came to fulfill the last promise he made to him.'Jane was right, he came around. But how can he still move freely when be has gotten old?' Mr Xi
In a tinted BMW, dressed in a black outfits, her eye's scanning here and there impatiently. Arya was seated waiting for Sofia to show up, and hand over the key's to the house she promised to give her.She had her plans to fly out of the country, move over to Atlanta, and start a new life with her identity hidden.Ever since she drugged Nate, and flew away, she has been staying at the Catholic house with the nun, while sneaking here and there to get her passport ready before flying out.She was in her world of thoughts, when she heard a knock on her door and snapped out of her reverie. She turned to look at the door.Arya quickly whined the glass down. Immediately she came into view with Sophia, she unlocked the door for her to hopped inside."What the fvck is your problem? I told you to be here as early as you could, what took you long?" Arya spat, staring dagger's."Shut up, Arya, what are you? My mum or my Aunt? Don't tell me what to do. You don't know my schedules, don't order me a
Mr Xi watched as the doctor prepare himself, getting ready to perform surgery on his daughter, alongside Doctor George, who agreed to help out since none of his friends were willing to assist.At first, he turned down Mr Xi because the doctor he was about to assist had his license ceased. But then he knew Mr Xi wouldn't ask him for such a favor if the patient meant nothing to him.As soon as they were about to begin, the doctor's turned to him, ready to send him away."I think you should go home, I don't think it's best for you to stay." George suggested, and looked at his colleague who quickly responded."He is right, we will do our best, just put your trust in us." He backed him up."I don't mind staying, I will wait, until the surgery is over. I will stay behind." Mr Xi insisted, and he meant it."You and I know I have never lost a patient on my table, same for your friend here, just trust us and go.""You should head home, it's late already. Your family needs you most, you have to
It's been past ten minutes, and the girls are not yet out of their room. Alley got tired of standing and plopped on the couch to rest her legs. She picked up the TV control close to her, and put on the news, her eyes glued to it. "Girls be fast, jasper will soon be here." Alley called out to them, her eyes not leaving the screen. "We're almost done, Aunt Alley." Lailah responded. And a few minutes after she responded, they marched out dressed in marching outfits. Alley retracted her gaze to their direction, immediately she came into view with them, her lips parted. "What are you putting on? Are you not heading to school?" She was scanning them one after another, waiting for a reply. "Mariyah was with your eyes, why are they swollen?" Maria quickly tapped Hilda to come up with something to tell her, she never expected such a question. Her eyes seemed a bit swollen, but she didn't think it was that obvious. Mariyah and Hilda stayed up last night working on Charlotte's laptop, still
"You have to stay and get enough rest, you can't leave like this, you're still not strong enough to go out.""What are my doing here when I have a family to protect. I called jasper, he is on his to come pick me up." Xavier pulled out the syringe from his hands, and used the white cotton to wipe the blood off.He walked to the bedroom and rummaged through Alex's wardrobe, searching for an outfit to put on.Alex stepped aside, watching as he rummages his clothes, all for an outfit.After rummaging, he found something to put on, and pulled them out. He changed into the cloth's, and turned to Alex."Are you not going to shower? Don't tell me you're going to see your family in this state?""Your tricks won't work, I know this is a way of making me stay back, but it won't work. It's better I go, you have a company to work for, you can't keep coming to see me when you should be making a living.""I never complained, why are you trying to take away my headache? You should get better first, b
"What do you mean it could be Sofia? Why would she want to kill her? Have you forgotten what eventuate between them?" Scott asked."The both of them have been working together, she recently drugged Nate, and took him to the hotel, and everything was Sofia's request." Xavier responded."Bryan told me he was admitted, she must have over drugged him." He sighs. "But don't you think this is karma?" Alex asked, and entangled his hands."He did the same to you five years back to tarnish your image. God knows what Sofia might have done to him, she probably slept with him to use it for something."'I doubt she would sleep with him, what would she need it for?' Xavier thought."What are you both talking about? When did this happen? How come I'm not aware of all this?" Scott finally spoke up to feed his curiosity."Stay out of it, this has nothing to do with you. Besides, you were out of California, you went after your dreams and abandoned everything behind, how would you know?" Alex rubbed it
