His Reward Hero Of Men
The chaos was just too much but that's none of Lydia's business. She knew her family would probably rush back home as soon as word went out. After all, she wasn't answering any of their calls and she wasn't at home either. Desperation could make even the smartest of people break. During this time, they will become more radical, resorting to even darker plots to get their way. Should she be at home, who knows what they might do to force her to sign the Will? A cornered rat could bite, leaving deadly diseases on its victim. Lydia squinted her eyes dangerously, staring at the monitor before her. Sure enough, the micro cameras she had installed when buying the house proved useful. On the other side, her family had just returned home slamming their bags and cursing at their luck of being caught in a deadly scandal. Do you know the feeling of having the will almost done, only to get caught in this matter that might make the useless maid defensive?Dammit!Harvey ruthlessly ran his
His Reward Reality Hits
With the fire calmed, Father Hart slowly took a seat, and reached for his chest pocket revealing his smoke pipe."Alright. We are family. This includes you, Kelvin... In times like these, we must stick together and fight the common enemy.""The maid?"Father Hart calmly blew a whiff of smoke from his mouth. "Yes and no."Eh? Everyone stared at each other wide-eyed, before focusing on Father Hart, wanting to get a piece of his sage wisdom. "Lydia isn't the real issue here. Her decision solely relies on how the public views the matter too.""That's right!" Camilla exclaimed. "That fool is a sheep that always needs a Shepherd to pull her along. Her emotions are only heightened because of the many comments she's reading online. So although we can't entirely win the matter, we can still hire a navy online to whitewash ourselves to some extent."(*An online Navy is a group of people online hired by their clients to leave comments and direct the wind of topics in their client's favor.)To
His Reward Reality Hits - 2
Yes! They must do something now. Camilla nodded in agreement, also thinking of her current bank account balance. Kelvin was better. Thanks to Camilla always wanting to prove she was better than Lydia, she was the one paying for most of the things he bought. In his account, he still had 2 million. If he was smart, he would leave the country and start a new life somewhere else. But the greed in him didn't want to let Lydia's wealth go. Thinking of how much Lydia loved him, she was bound to forgive him later, right? Looking at the 4 million in his account, Father Hart knew any moves he was doing next would have to be a smart one. They didn't have money to throw around again. Very quickly, Father Hart transferred 3.7 million to his private account, before showing the family the remaining 300 thousand he had. "Look. We must put our hands together if we want to pass through this hurdle. Everyone must transfer at least 60% of their current balance and contribute to paying an
His Reward The Strange Girl In Her Dreams
--Water Lily Country--.Maxwell hated seeing his wife like this, but knew it was useless to talk her out of it. No one knows how much his wife looked forward to giving birth to their daughter more than he. She prayed, fasted and invited Buddhist monks to give her a few good words or two, blessing the daughter in her womb. All of them said the girl would live with them and grow old happily... all except one monk who said their daughter would face 2 tribulations in her life. One during her birth and another in her late 20s. The monk spoke strange words, saying she was a Phoenix who would be reborn from the ashes of deep suffering.The monk's words undoubtedly caused the couple to throw him out, angered by his cursed words left for their daughter. They didn’t take his words seriously.Though just to be sure, security was doubled and on the same day Bianca put to birth. However, nothing could've prepared them for fate's disparate moves to take their daughter away from them. By some
His Reward A Cruel Start
The ever-busy and bubbling streets of C-city brought the entire place to life. The many sky-rise buildings, luxury cars, touristic sights, and entertainment spots ensured that the city remained busy day and night.Soon, a luxurious vehicle pulled up and parked within a very grand 5-star hotel.Lydia sat in a daze while checking her phone impatiently. Why meet now? She couldn't understand what was so important and couldn't wait for tomorrow. She tilted her head to the side and leaned against her chair while starting outside the window, deep in thought.Anyone who saw her would instantly think that she was a goddess. She had deep raven hair as rich as the night sky and light golden eyes that could memorize anyone that gazed upon them. She was the exact definition of a beauty.Lydia was deep in thought when suddenly, her phone vibrated loudly.Hm?She immediately snapped out of her thoughts and smiled warmly when she saw the caller I.D."What took you so long? I called you 15 minutes ago
His Reward Death
Lydia slowly moaned from the sudden pain she felt while trying to pry her eyes open. But soon, she quickly realized she was tied up in a run-down warehouse. On her left, there was a pile of wood that was already lit with fire…..And on her right, she saw another woman who was also tied in a pool of blood. Mya! It's her former secretary Mya. But why?“Don’t be too confused sister” a familiar cute female voice echoed, causing her to stiffenLydia looked up and taken aback, seeing her entire family and some company staff members walking out from the shadows. The most painful part was that Kelvin, her so-called fiance, was hugging her sister intimately while she was tied up here. Lydia desperately wished that this was some sort of reality TV show she was starring in. Her brain still refused to believe it all. Who can accept it? “Mom, dad…. What is going on…?” She asked with a shrieked voice.“Shut up! Who is your mother? Who are you calling mom? Hmp! Let me tell you now ...You were dump
His Reward Shameless Sister
In her room, Lydia sat on a chair by a large mirror, slowly combing through her hair.~Din.A loud and rude knock on the door, stopped Lydia’s actions.“Sis, are you up yet?” Camilla's impatient voice rang. “There’s something I need to talk to you about, so can you open up fast?!” Lydia chuckled. Speak of the devil.The knock on the door became even more violent and impatient.~DIN. DIN. DIN. DIN.“Sis, it’s serious! I need to talk to you now. Open the door now…. Why are you always so selfish? I really need to talk to you,but you won’t even open the door?” Camilla erupted, her arrogant nature slowly poking its head out. Lydia thought it was amusing.‘OH, my dear sister, you just knocked once and you expect me to fly to the door? I must have been stupid in my past life to not see the signs’ Lydia slowly got up from her chair and elegantly walked towards the door. As Camilla was about to knock on the door, she suddenly opened it.“Yes Camilla?” Lydia answered in a cool and flat tone.
His Reward Breakfast
As Lydia walked down the stairs, she saw that her entire family was seated at the table having breakfast. Her fake mom probably cooked the meal once she heard that Lydia wasn't going to do it. In fact, she still looked frightfully angry as she gazed at Lydia. “Morning” Lydia said as she took her seat at the table.“What’s the matter with you? Why can’t you smile? Just because of a little tiredness you can’t cook for us? Hmph! You’re becoming more and more lazy around here. Luckily I know how to cook or everyone would have starved to death because of your uselessness. Do you think that you’re the only billionaire in the world? Others work harder than you and can still afford to cook for their families… but here we are stuck with a lazy girl as a daughter.” Mrs.Hart sneered as she looked at Lydia with rage and disgust.When was the last time she cooked? In her mind, this bastard girl had caused her to suffer too many grievances. How could she not let out steam?Camilla quickly held her

His Reward Checkmate
Thinking of his plans, Father Hart dared not tell his big-mouthed daughter, lest she one day drinks and blow his secrets all up! [You will go on your knees and beg for forgiveness!] "Beg? You want me to beg that lowly maid? Why should I-" Tut~ Father Hart dropped the call feeling it was pointless talking to someone whose brain was filled with wallpaper paste. Has he been talking with water in his mouth? Or is she just normally that stupid. In truth, Camilla knew what she had to do. But knowing wasn't the same as accepting. Since she was born, she has never been on her knees before Lydia. The thought of it made her blood boil. At this time, she and Kelvin had long run to their vehicle, trying to drive away amidst the crowd of camera flashing freaks. Throughout their grand escape from the building to their vehicle, Kelvin hadn't caught his breath yet. He had an uneasy feeling. "Baby, what happened? What's wrong?" "She knows! The whole f**ching world knows, that's what's HAP
His Reward Ruined!
She still didn't think it was her fault till now. He was originally her boyfriend, so why was everyone pointing her out to be a mistress? A side piece he would grill and eat, throwing the leftovers away as he liked? No. [You think you're still right? Do you think I care about your opinion? After we finally finalized the damn thing, you and Kelvin just had to come along to ruin it for us all! For the Will... we will have to get back into her good graces.] "Why?" Camilla frowned. "Wasn't there a plan-C which would commence in case Lydia refused to give us her properties? Can't we just move on with the plan and kill her as intended?" [When I say you're an idiot, you think I'm insulting you! Now that you've openly stated our plans of getting her wealth, should she die, all fingers would first point to us!] Really! How come none of his children inherited his brain? Should he have a DNA test to confirm? Then again, they all look like photocopies of him. Knowing how stupid and depend
His Reward What's Going On?
Finally, it was over.The days went by longer than usual, perhaps because some waited for their big pay, while others looked forward to other sources of happiness.For some, it was their hate and fear of living among snakes that made their bodies recoil in disgust.“Dad, here! Have some fruit.”“Thank you, daughter. As expected, you are daddy’s padded jacket.” Father Hart stated, feeling pride swell in his chest whenever the family leaned a
His Reward A Perfect Family?
[Elder sister...] Camilla spoke softly, like a cat about to purr.[I know dad and brother will always have my back. But as a big girl who is grown up, how can I always disturb them with my needs?]Nonsense! What is disturbing about it? Don't you know you are the family's baby?"A vein appeared above Camilla's right brow.'Is this the point I'm trying to make? Can you just shut up and use your brain for once? You're supposed to be smart, so why can't you see my point?'If Camilla didn't know Lydia well enough, she would've thought she was acting stupid on purpose.[Lyly... I know the family will always have my back. But think about it. Will I always run home
His Reward The Agitated Harts!
Lydia's call to Harvey yielded similar results to Father Hart's. In fact, when Harvey heard Lydia's original plans, like Father Hart, he too was thankful she didn't make the will earlier.Why?What is the point of keeping 15% while Harvey keeps 45?Are you kidding him? And what was up with giving Camilla 27% while he had 15%?As the only son in this family, he should have more than her! It was his birthright!
