The Wilson's Mansion, After Alexa and all invited guests left, the servants tidied everywhere, bringing the mansion back to its former beauty. Mrs Wilson, Sofia, Nicholas, Benjamin, Thomas, Daniel and Olivia were all inside Mr Wilson's study room. Mr Wilson was also inside the study with them. He was sitting in the high chair and was closely watching all of them. It took a while and he finally started the conversation, “Xavier my last son got himself a really capable woman this time. I'm afraid he'd want to become the chairman because of his suddenly capable wife, who's the chairman of Diamond V company”. “We can't let that happen, father”. Benjamin spoke his mind almost immediately. “I know that, Benjamin!”. Mr Wilson harshly spoke, causing Benjamin to become silent immediately. Even Sofia was afraid because of Mr Wilson's harsh voice. “If only you idiots are capable and smart like Xavier, I wouldn't have given him any position in my company! If I dare to chase Xavier f
After dinner, Mrs Charlotte took the twins to their temporary bedroom. The room had two beds and was exquisitely decorated, just like Vanessa's room. “Thanks for everything, Mrs Charlotte”. Both Eric and Derek greeted her as she left the room. Derek took the two blue-luggages and put them inside the big wooden wardrobe. Also, he didn't bother to remove the clothes from the luggages because he was feeling lazy to arrange them in the clothes hangers. While Eric, he left his backpack on the floor after he had taken his laptop from it. Furthermore, he went to the bed he had chosen and sat on it, before questioning Derek, “Did you remember to bring your own laptop, little twin?”. “Em, yeah, big twin. But why did you ask? Are you up to something again?”. Derek replied to Eric's question and also asked. “Of course I'm up to something, Derek. I must figure out Xavier's real identity, and his relationship with our big sister”. Eric replied sincerely to Derek since there was no point o
Eric and Derek's hearts started beating fast as they were still trying to come up with excuses. With the way Vanessa was staring at them, they were feeling really nervous. Just when Vanessa was about to say another word, her cell phone rang. She stared at Eric and Derek closely, before she went ahead and answered the call. “Hello”. “It's me, Nessa. You finally picked my call”. As soon as Vanessa heard Alexa's voice, her face darkened. In fact, she hung up the call almost immediately. “Gosh, Alexa is just getting on my nerves! I can't wait to deal with her by using my hacki….”. Vanessa immediately stopped talking when she realised that she almost gave her secret away. “Hacking?”. Eric questioned Vanessa with suspicious eyes. “What hacking? Who said hacking?”. Vanessa immediately defended herself before she added, “You two still haven't explained to me how you found out about Xavier and I”. “About that….”. Eric couldn't finish talking because Vanessa's cell phone suddenly bee
‘Xavier really gotta be joking with me’. Vanessa thought and furrowed her eyebrows in the process. To be honest, if Vanessa could punch Xavier's face right now, she'd definitely do it, because to her, Xavier was being too extra. ‘If I reject this offer, then Xavier might use another means to make someone else spy on me. And since I don't want Xavier to be nosy about my business, I must accept Cole and keep a close eye on him instead’. Vanessa deeply sighed and massaged her forehead after she finished thinking of this. “Fine, you can be my personal driver, Cole. But on my own terms”. Vanessa announced all of a sudden. “What terms, Vanessa?”. Cole politely asked. He was so excited, because Vanessa didn't refuse him to be her personal driver. “It's simple. You may drive me to my destination at any time, but that's it. I don't want you to follow me around while I'm walking”. “Alright, Vanessa. I'm okay with that”. Cole said with a smile before he led Vanessa to Xavier's white bug
“Yeah, Finn. I ought to come, since you still owe me an explanation about yourself”. Vanessa proudly replied to Finn as she took a seat next to him. After settling down, Vanessa went straight to the point and said, “I appreciate the new boss you hired for my cyber cafe, Finn. She's charismatic and is doing a great job already”. “Plus yesterday, you wanted to explain yourself to me. So, what's everything all about? What's your true identity? I want to know”. Vanessa added in a serious tone. Her beautiful pair of blue eyes were staring at Finn, as she was curious to understand who he truly was. Finn sighed deeply. This wasn't all. He also stood up from the seat he was sitting on, since he preferred to explain everything to Vanessa, while standing. “It happened like this….”. Finn started the story, and after halting to breathe in deeply, he continued, “Actually, Xavier was my childhood friend, even before I met you and became friends with you. To be honest, Xavier and I were inse
“W- who told you that I was attacked?”. Vanessa kindly took a step backwards as she calmly asked Xavier, who was still standing right in front of her. “I ought to know, after all, I'm your handsome hubby”. Vanessa almost coughed out blood after hearing what Xavier said to her in the presence of all these crowds!. ‘This guy is honestly unreadable! One minute he's all serious! And the next, he's behaving mischievously! Gosh, why in the world did I even involve myself with him? Or, I just remembered. I involved myself with him for a very valid reason’. Vanessa thought to herself and couldn't stop staring at Xavier's striking handsome face. Vanessa was feeling so uncomfortable with the way people were staring at her and taking pictures. Actually, the shirt she was wearing felt light to her. As if Xavier knew what was going on in Vanessa's head. Like a gentleman, he removed his black coat and used it to cover Vanessa's upper body. Soon after, he held her slim hand and took her wit
“Em, Eric and I can help you out, but we're not sure if it'd work….”. Derek couldn't finish talking because Eric gave him a sign to stop talking. Eric was staring at Xavier with suspicious eyes when he said, “Do you really love my big sister? How can we even trust you're not like Nicholas?”. “Nicholas?”. Xavier muttered since he didn't quite understand Eric's point. “Yes. And as you already know, Nicholas is your half-nephew. Also, he used to be my big sister's fiancè. But to be fair, he used my sister's fame all this while, and when he heard that my big sister's company had gone bankrupt, he instantly broke up with her”. Eric explained while still staring at Xavier with suspicious eyes. Derek suddenly gasped and said, “You're really smart, big twin. If Xavier really loves our big sister, he must prove to us that he's not after her fame”. The twins' behaviour was amusing to Xavier. He was pleased to see how the twins' were overprotective of Vanessa. “I understand your
‘Gosh! I wanted to come here alone, but Nicholas insisted on coming with me! My initial plan was to gain back Vanessa's trust and ruin her company for good! But who knew that Mr Xavier would be here with her?!’. Alexa gritted her teeth in annoyance as she thought to herself. The atmosphere in Vanessa's office totally became quiet. Alexa and Nicholas were just staring at everyone, and were not able to say anything. It reached a certain point, and Eric angrily rose from his seat. Eric pointed his finger against Nicholas and Alexa, and said to them, “How dare you show yourselves here after betraying my big sister?!”. “Yeah, how dare you guys?!”. Derek also stood up from his seat as he supported his twin brother, Eric. Nicholas wasn't affected by the way Eric and Derek scolded him. Rather, a deep feeling of rage was busy consuming his heart. He was really jealous and disturbed, because Xavier was on Vanessa's side. Nicholas regretted breaking up with Vanessa. But most especially,
Xavier flinched, and his eyes widened because of what he heard Vanessa say to him. His hands left the steering wheel as he looked at Vanessa’s face. She was staring at him. “Are you serious about this, Nessa?”. A drop of sweat formed on his forehead as he asked her. He had truly expected her not to give him a chance. “Yes, I am serious about this, Xavier. I'm willing to give you a chance. But if by the end of our marriage contract and I do not have any feelings for you, we'll part ways”.Xavier nodded at Vanessa. His heart was pounding against his chest because Vanessa said she would part ways with him if she didn't have any feelings for him. ‘I will try my best to make you love me before our marriage contract ends, Nessa’. He promised himself in his mind, before he drove off. They were returning home. ….After their arrival at the mansion, Vanessa went to her bedroom to freshen up, while Xavier went to his own bedroom and laid on his king-sized bed. He had a big smile on his face
Vanessa had returned home but didn't see Xavier. She thought about going to Mrs Charlotte and asking her about Xavier’s whereabouts, before she remembered that Xavier must be in his company, since he had made an official announcement concerning his companies earlier. Another thought popped into her head. ‘Xavier named his company Xava? What does that name mean?’. She wondered and was about to take a step forward when she gasped upon realising what the name meant. “No way. Xava? Xa- vier? Va- nessa? That can't be”. She shook her head, as she refused to believe that Xavier would go to the extent of using the first two alphabets of her name. After brushing off her thoughts, she tried to leave the mansion and go to one of Xavier’s companies, when she received a call on her cell phone. As she stared at her cell phone’s screen, she saw that the number calling her was unknown. Irrespective of that, she answered the call. ‘What worse could possibly happen if I answered the call?’. That was
Everyone who had watched the evidence of how Sofia and Mrs Wilson had poisoned Xavier's mother, became so angry. Most of them left their houses and were going to Mr Wilson's mansion. Most of the people were Xavier's die-hard fans. Xavier also saw the evidence and was amazed by how fast Vanessa was able to find the culprits. He knew that it was her who had uploaded all that evidence. “She found them so fast. I wasn't even able to do that”. He muttered, before his mind thought about Sofia and Mrs Wilson. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. “I promise I'll make sure that all of them rot in jail”. He declared, before he left the conference hall and quickly went to his car that was parked outside his company. He didn't know where Vanessa was at the moment, but he wanted to go to her company. He knew that even though Vanessa was not in her company, he could collect her cell phone’s number from Eric and Derek and call her. He wanted to collect the complete evidence from her an
The news about the T&N company and the Triple Union company has circulated almost everywhere. People were talking, uploading posts and commenting about it. Meanwhile, inside Cassandra’s office, Cassandra had a smile on her face after she carefully kept her cell phone on her desk. “I knew it and I said it. The slaying dragon would never have attacked the triple union company or anyone without a cause. Too bad for Nicholas and Alexa. Now they have caused their family’s companies to go down the drain. So sad”. She shook her head, before she added, “Why did the slaying dragon help chairman Vanessa? Is she acquainted with chairman Vanessa?”. She paused for a while, and then waved off her imaginations while admitting, “I doubt that. Maybe the slaying dragon simply helped chairman Vanessa, just like she had helped me before. But, I don't understand. That CCTV footage that the Slaying Dragon had uploaded on social media... How did she acquire it? I know she's a great hacker and can easil
‘I guess I should leave Zuri. She deserves punishment, I know that. But, she did what she did out of fear. I should probably leave her in the meantime’. Vanessa thought. And during that moment, she smiled upon remembering something. ‘That day Alexa and Nicholas visited my office to rub what they had done to me on my face... Did I forget that there was a secret CCTV camera in my office? Goodness me. I'll upload that CCTV footage online after I finish avenging myself’. {PS: the scene happened in chapter 8, titled; Meeting ex jerk fiance and best friend} Vanessa couldn't help it and burst out laughing with delight. She only stopped laughing because of Finn, who was still asleep. Her blue eyes darkened. “It's time to get to work”. She muttered as she stretched her fingers and prepared them for typing. A while later, Because it was both companies' main funds that Vanessa was taking away, it took her over an hour to accomplish her mission. She wiped the sweat on her forehead, as
Vanessa was riding her bike side by side with different motorists on the road, and sitting behind her on the bike was Claire, who was hanging on for her life. “Haha. Claire, your brother is tough. But fortunately, I was able to win back his support with the help of my stubbornness and you!”. Vanessa exclaimed. She was happy that even though Blake was upset with her for blaming Claire, he was able to sympathise with her, since it wasn't entirely her fault for blaming Claire.“Yeah, Blake is tough, Chairman Vanessa. But I'm glad we're back to being partners again”. Claire said, while trying to maintain her balance, so that she wouldn't fall off the bike. Because of how stiff Claire sat on the bike, Vanessa chuckled. ‘She must be afraid that she might fall off’. She thought, as she decided not to talk to Claire again until after they had arrived at her company and were standing on foot. Diamond V company,Vanessa's office,Derek and Eric were pacing back and forth together. They had a
Earlier,“What's taking them so long?”. Gabriella frowned as she asked herself. She had gotten tired of staying in the car for so long. The minute she got out of the car, that was when she saw Jasper and Captain Tristan returning with a handcuffed guy.She stared at the handcuffed guy carefully before she realised that he looked exactly like that cyber cafe owner whom Isla and Nova had bribed. “Finally”. She sighed in relief, and her eyes never left Alvin's side. After Jasper, Tristan and Alvin had arrived close to Gabriella, Gabriella forced herself not to attack Alvin. “Let's return to the police station”. Tristan said, after he had used force to make Alvin enter the car. Since Alvin was sitting in the backseat, Jasper told Gabriella to stay in the front seat with Captain Tristan, while he sat in the backseat with Alvin. He could never allow Gabriella to sit together with Alvin. Tristan started the car and drove off to the station. Within a few couples of minutes, they arrived
Inside the airport building,Tristan knew the face of Alvin, so the search was going pretty smoothly for him. After searching for Alvin for a few minutes, but couldn't find him anywhere in the airport, Tristan smirked as he thought to himself, ‘I knew it. There's no way these two amateur siblings would be able to find the people I couldn't find’. There was still a proud look on Tristan's face when he suddenly saw Alvin, who was at the boarding entrance and was holding blue luggage by his side. “What the”. He became utterly speechless and had to look at Jasper who was behind him. “This is impossible”. He clenched his fists as he muttered. “Did you say something just now?”. Jasper asked Tristan, but Tristan, who was stunned, didn't answer him. ‘I don't believe that these two amateur siblings found the culprits on their own. I must ask them how they did that after I arrested that annoying cyber cafe owner’. Tristan thought. He hated to admit it, but he was feeling completely incompete
Jasper and Gabriella had both arrived outside the police station in a taxi. After Jasper paid the taxi driver his money, he and Gabriella stared at each other's faces and nodded twice, before they walked into the building together.Upon their arrival inside the building, they were stopped by one of the police officers. “What can we help you two with?”. He asked them. Since he was assigned to the police station today, he had no idea that Jasper and Gabriella had come to the station before.“We're here to meet Captain Tristan. I hope he's around today?”. Gabriella said to the police officer. The police officer got confused for a second. ‘Both of you are here to meet Captain Tristan? But no one informed me about you two’. He wondered, and when he opened his mouth to say something, a deep voice was heard behind him. “I see both of you are here again”.The police officer turned around quickly and saw Tristan, whose hands were positioned behind his back. As for Gabriella and Jasper, they
