All in all, the Thompson Group of Companies has twelve major shareholders who were board members. Three of them were all Lucas' uncles. They were Keith Henderson, Wendell Franco, and Sean Ross. They were best friends of his father, Evan Thompson. The other board members were Steven Ford, Warren Ellison, Alice Walton, Jane Koch, Giovanni Ortega, and Alexei Petrov. Four of them supported Walton Reed. Some took neutral grounds. Of course, Lucas and his mother, Shantelle, also held relevant shares within the company. Over the years, expansion required more investors. Evan had always explained that more investors reduced the risk of losses. In front of the long table, the board members had found their seats on the left side. The executives took most seats on the right side. Lucas and Ryan stood before them, waiting for everyone to arrive. Evan and Shantelle came and took the remaining seats on the right side of the table. "Now that everyone is here, Let us begin this meeting," Luca

Lucas relished how the three previous shareholders seemed envious to the point of being enchanted. Their jaws were dropping, and they repeatedly blinked, trying to fathom whether or not their eyes were playing tricks on them. "This - this can't be. I thought the Wrights and Thompsons had no relationship!" Jane remarked, her lips rounding in disbelief. Standing before them was the CEO of the Diamond Hotel, Liam Wright. He said, "Good day. I come here to represent our mother company, The Wright Diamond Corporation. I am here to buy shares and to bring back the former ties of the Thompsons and the Wrights." Liam smiled at the familiar people in the room. He was teary-eyed as he said, "It's good to be back here." Those who did not know Lily never connected the dots. None of the board members and executives were interested in learning Lucas' bodyguards. Thus, Liam's appearance was a complete surprise. With the vice president locked up, including his assistant and identified coconsp

"Lucas?" Axel walked into Lucas's office. "You called for me?" Ryan was standing next to Lucas. He was smiling as Axel walked in. He encouraged, "Take a seat, Axel." Behind his desk, Lucas pushed a brown envelope in Axel's direction. He said, "This is for you. I did not know when I could give it to you, but now is the time." Axel's brows met as he sat in front of Lucas' table. He opened the envelope and saw a stock certificate for Gravity Ventures worth more than two million dollars. Axel muttered, "Woah, what is this?" "Remember your death gratuity pay with Alpha Vipers? Well, Ryan and I had taken that out of their corporate account a long time ago and added a little extra," Lucas revealed. "We saved that up for you and invested in Gravity Ventures under your name."x "What? But you didn't even know if I was alive," Axel reacted. Lucas and Ryan looked at each other. Ryan was the one who revealed, "We were going to give it to your parents if we did not find you." "When the Alpha

It took seconds for Shauna to say something. She was still taken aback by the compromising position they were in, and then she realized that the man's hand was holding her thigh. When she turned to her legs, she gasped. Tree Guy quickly moved his hand away, saying, "Oh, sorry. I - It was an accident -" "No," Shauna carelessly got off him in a way that she accidentally kneeled on his groin. She screamed when she recognized this, "Oh, my god!" Axel grunted in pain. He curled to his side as he said, "Lady, you really are something." Finally standing next to the Tree Guy, she said, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry." She fixed her dress properly and offered her hand. "Let me help you up." She pursed her lips, looking in varied directions as Tree Guy soothed his pain. Eventually, he took her hand, mumbling, "First, you did not thank me for helping you back at the elevator. Then, I took a fall for you, and you repay me by kneeling on my dick." "That was not my intention. I'm sorry," Shauna said w

Shauna was shocked beyond words. Her mouth remained open, yet no words escaped her lips. A picture of her and Axel in that compromising position in the parking area was on the table. The funny thing was how, from the camera's angle, they looked like they were on a heated makeout session on the ground! The camera did not even catch the scattered grocery items around them. There was no other photograph explaining the situation. "I know that dress anywhere, and I am confident that is you. That is your hair, and that is definitely your back!" Reese declared. "You cannot lie to me. I gave birth to you!" "And the fact that you are now clad in a man's oversized shirt tells me that the makeout session went overboard!" Reese said, shocking her husband. Shauna gasped. Her mother had such an imagination! Her father, Sean, coughed for a second. He said angrily, "Shauna, you need to explain this! Are you seeing someone? And of all places, the parking lot? I thought you were better than thi

"Don't you see a good opportunity when you see one?" Abner Green said to his son. "Haven't you heard the saying, strike while the iron is hot?" "Pops, what are you talking about? I just met her. How is the situation even hot?" Axel reasoned. Since Shauna left the condo, his father had been talking him into going after her over lunch. Abner turned to his wife. Martha filled in, saying, "Because she is hot, so you should strike!" "Not you too, Mom," Axel said before a laugh escaped his lips. Although he had to admit that Shauna was beautiful, dating women while protecting Lucas was not part of his initial plan. Besides, he just got his life back! Thus, he pointed out, "Am I even ready for that?" "Oh, Axel, son. No one is truly ever ready for love and relationships; you just keep fighting to keep it," Martha remarked. "why don't you go down to the restaurants and find her? She might still be there." "She said she is going to return your shirt. How will that work if you are not here

Axel gave the signal through his earpiece, "All clear all the way to the waiting courtroom." He had two members of the Black Hawk men follow him around since he entered the Supreme Court. Lily and Lucas were entering from the back. Since Lucas was the first witness to be called to the stand, the court requested that he remain in another empty courtroom as a waiting area. There were already military personnel around, and they all nodded to give regard to Axel's arrival. "The local police have already cleared the courthouse for bombs and weapons," one soldier reported to Axel. "Thank you, Lieutenant," Axel acknowledged. Next, he stood outside, waiting for Lily and Lucas to arrive. Just as he did, his private phone rang, which surprised him. His parents knew not to disturb him at work. Axel canceled the call, seeing that Lily and Lucas were coming from the far end of the hall. "All good, Axel?" Lily asked. "All good," he replied. "Thanks for checking the area ahead. Ryan s

"But Mom, Dad, I wanna see the judge. I want to thank him for making a swift decision on the case," Aiden said during their conference call. "Aiden, listen to Mommy," Lily said while holding her phone. "The tension is up right now. The Vice President had just been convicted of several crimes and was relieved of his position officially. Let's wait it out -" "But Mom, I promised him!" Aiden said. Behind Lily, Lucas laughed. He threw his back on the bed, saying, "I knew my son had something to do with that." "Aiden?" Lily asked. "How did you get in contact with the Chief Justice?" "Oh, I did not do much, Mom. I just expressed my deepest wishes through express mail," Aiden admitted before shrugging. "And Twix always works." Lily was sitting on the edge of the bed of their hotel room. She turned to Lucas, but her husband was already asleep. The trial brought him too much stress that it exhausted him physically and emotionally. Addressing her son, Lily suggested, "How about we info

Gone Too Long, The CEO Becomes A World-Class Doting Husband Author's Announcement (March 2, 2024)
Dear Beloved Readers, Thank you for supporting me with Lucas and Lily's story. I also appreciate the care and patience you have shown me over the past two weeks. I have a few announcements. So, here it goes. Author's Health. After what happened to my eyes, I realized that I must give time for myself. And it is not just my eyes; I have gained weight. Lol. I blamed it on the holidays, but it's already March. In line with this, I will take it a little slow in my next book, enough for my eyes to rest so they won't get strained from all the screen time. I know you are all used to me delivering two chapters daily on most days, but in the next book, I will probably publish an average of nine to ten chapters per week. I need this badly, so I am asking for your understanding. Note that you can always read at the end of the week or after the book is completed. What book will I publish next? I know you love the Wrights and the Thompsons, but I have been advised to write outside the s

Four years passed. ~"You might have a mom, she might be the bombBut ain't nobody got a mom like mineHer love's 'til the end, she's my best friendAin't nobody got a mom like mine" ~ Dancing to the tune of "Mom" by Meghan Trainor, the children danced in simple steps to appreciate their mommies on Mother's Day. This was a gathering that Amara had organized for the mothers in their family and close friends. The seven-year-olds, Autumn and Maeve, and the four-year-old Ivaan were forming hearts with their fingers, and together with Shauna's and Anna's daughters, they found partners to sway along to the music. Shauna's daughter, Mareese, was nearly seven, while her son, Shawn, was three. While Mareese had Shauna's looks, Shawn was a definite copy of his dad. Shawn was less coordinated with the other kids dancing, and that was because he thought dancing was only for girls. Still, Shauna appreciated her son's efforts. Anna's daughter was dancing with the group too. Ryan and Anna nam

Over three months passed. "Ready for our first round?" Aiden asked with narrowed eyes. "Ready!" Autumn and Maeve said at the same time. His sisters were in the playroom with him, smiling from ear to ear. Earlier, Autumn and Maeve were unhappy because they missed Lucas and Lily. Their mother had been confined for four days since she had another C-section to deliver their baby brother. To cheer them up, Aiden went the extra mile and created a fun activity for them on a Friday afternoon. Together with the caregivers, Aiden cut out large and various shapes in different colors. The mechanics of the game was simple. Aiden would dictate the shape and color, and they would step on it. The highest number of correct answers would be awarded a prize. "Blue star!" Aiden said, and his sisters scrambled to find a blue star and step on it. "Next, an orange circle!" Aiden added. "Green square! Red triangle!" They did not necessarily get all of them. Like how Autumn thought orange was re

Six months passed. Ryan and Anna's wedding was held at The Green Pine Restaurant and Lodge. Around the venue, candles flickered, and soft fabrics moved in the mountain wind, making everything feel magical. The wedding happened under the moonlit sky, and the hills stood in the background, watching as two people joined their lives together. As the celebration extended, the couple had a romantic dance at the end, swaying to the tune of "Lover" by Taylor Swift. Ryan wore a black suit, while Anna wore a mermaid wedding dress. ~ "Can I go where you go?Can we always be this close forever and ever?And ah, take me out, and take me home (forever and ever)You're my, my, my, myLover?" ~ Ryan had a big smile on his face, his eyes glued to his now wife while Anna looked at her husband adoringly, her hands wrapped around his neck. Anna's eyes were gleaming, her red hair adorned with gems tied into a beautiful bun behind her head. Halfway through the song, Anna and Ryan looked around. An

Over one year passed. "Ladies and gentlemen, distinguished guests, and nature enthusiasts," Axel said while addressing everyone in the crowd. He was standing before a podium and on a makeshift stage. Surrounding him stretched a vast expanse of land adorned with lush green grass, while the venue for the press conference was sheltered by the shade of trees and pines. "A warm welcome to all of you on this glorious day as we gather to celebrate the grand opening of The Green Pine Restaurant and Lodge." Axel smiled as he stared into the eyes of those watching him. He resumed, "Today is a testament to the harmonious blend of nature, hospitality, and my family's love for farming." "This farm resort is a dream realized - a way for us to bring you the countryside and do what we love to do as a family. We, the Greens, love to farm," Axel proudly announced. "Just an hour away from the Rose Hills proper, you can escape the hustle and bustle of city life and immerse yourself in the beauty of

"My feet are killing me," Anna complained after she, Lily, and Shauna went shopping for clothes for the past four hours on a Saturday afternoon. Shauna bought maternity clothes, while Lily and Anna bought clothes for themselves. They all rested on one of the benches inside the mall. Anna and Shauna took both ends of the bench while Lily sat in the middle. Once settled, Lily asked, "Is the baby coming out yet?" The idea of going to the mall was Shauna's. She was already forty weeks pregnant, but she had no signs of going into labor. She thought that strolling around would help. Shauna rested her shopping bags on the floor. She touched her belly and said, "No, I don't feel anything." Suddenly, Anna screamed, "Ouch! Luke! What the -" "Anna, come back with me!" Out of nowhere, Luke appeared, and he grabbed Anna's wrist. Luke did not appear well. His hair was disheveled, and he had dark bags under his eyes. He begged, "Anna, please forgive me." "Luke, what are you doing? Didn't R

### MARCUS' FLASHBACK ### "Hey, Guys! Can I join you?" Kamila said while taking the vacant seat next to Lace. "Looks like our parents have made a huddle of their own." "Of course. They always do that," Lace replied. "We should have a gathering of our own." "I'll go to join Samuel and the others," Amara said, referring to their uncle Sean's second son. "Go," Marcus said. It was always like this during gatherings; they split into different groups. "Let's drink," Kamila proposed with a mischievous smile. Marcus laughed. He looked back, searching for Keith, and when he found Kamila's father having a drink with Evan and their other uncles, he said, "So, that's why you came here." "Yeah, good luck getting a drink when I am near Dad," Kamila remarked, and she laughed. "He does let me drink, but not too much." "I think not too much is okay," Marcus commented, but either way, he asked a food server for another bottle of wine. He winked at Kamila and assured her, "Don't worry, I'll

Louise was celebrating inside. Finally, for the first time, Keith Henderson would see that Kamila wasn't the perfect daughter he had assumed her to be. Since the Hendersons had granted her a scholarship, Louise had seen how easy Kamila's life had always been. She realized that life was so unfair. Here was Kamila, tall and beautiful with long and shiny black hair. She was often the center of attention during their college years, leaving Louise in the backseat. In the past, Louise earnestly appreciated Kamila, but the more she was exposed to how the Hendersons lived, the more she coveted Kamila's life. Louise would have had a chance to live that luxury if only she had been chosen for the management trainee position for Prima MedCare. The problem was that Kamila was in the way of her dreams. It was obvious that Keith Henderson, being the CEO of the insurance company, would prefer to bring in his daughter rather than an outsider. Knowing this, Louise had been trying to find a way t
