She was done with this job. And she is also done letting herself be trampled on and humiliated the way that Linda likes!"You.....how dare you?!" Linda said angrily. She rushed at Lena and tried to scratch her face with her perfectly manicured hands. But there's no way that Linda who has been pampered all her life will be able to win against Lena who has been living a tough life all through. Lena grabbed her hand and pushed her away. Linda fell to the ground and screamed. She had never been so embarrassed in her life Before! Yesterday, she was still able to take the humiliation because it was from Aryan. She knew that she will never be a match for her so she reined in her anger. But why should she let herself suffer because of Lena?! She rushed at Lena again but Lena slapped Lena hard across the face. Before Linda could recover from the fact that her timid assistant just slapped her, Lena slapped her again on her other cheek. Linda had a confused expression on her face. Where did L
No matter how she looked for Lena, she did not find her. However, she was suddenly ambushed by reporters. Linda at first did not know what was going on and she tried to push her way out of the crowd of reporters but they weren't letting her leave. "Who are you people?! Get out of my way! Do you know who I am?! I can make you disappear from this city immediately if I want to!" Linda said. She still had not figured out what was going on and her apperance right now was a complete mess. It was different from the confident image that she had always portrayed in front of the media. The reporters were not afraid of Linda's threats. It was a big and explosive news and they were determined to get to the end of it. "Miss Linda, are the rumours true?""Miss Hall, did you copy your assistant's designs and pass them off as yours?"", Miss Hall, they were rumours that your family paid for your certificates in school and even the awards that you won. Thru said that you are a phony and everything
Reed who was already in a bad mood because of Linda's scandal got even angrier when he heard her words. Obviously she doesn't even care! How can someone be so irresponsible?"Money money, money! Are you really an idiot Linda or are you just pretending to be one? Have you seen the news?? Do you even know what's going on now?! Let me tell you, your entire career is finished! You won't be able to work as a designer anywhere in the world! Everyone now knows that you are fake and a phony and that there's nothing that you can do right! Do you think that spending money can resolve this?! I'm sorry to burst your bubble but it just can't this time! Your career.... it's finished! It's completely over for you!" Reed. He didn't know how he got such a dumb sister who can't do anything right and who can only cause problems for thier family. Normally, as long as it's not a big deal, he will step in and settle it for her. Just as Linda said before, it will just be a matter of money and threatening so
"Bullying someone and treating them like a slave because they are better than you? This Linda should be locked in a mental hospital. There are so many people who are better than her in this world. Is she going to torture each and every one of them?"Somebody give me a break! Some people really deserve to be beaten to deãth!"Linda threw away the phone in fear. She could not bear to read the comments. Everyone was despising her and looking down on her now. When has she ever suffered such a big Injustice in her life? What exactly did she do to deserve this?? "No....no....this can't be true....how did people know about this?! Reed you said that you've already taken cate of the issue! You said that there is no way that anyone will ever know about the things that I have done! What about now? What is the meaning of this? Now that they all know, what am I supposed to do?" Linda asked. She was panicking her. This isn't the outcome that she wanted at all. She wanted to live the rest of her l
It's what he will do......Linda panicked now when her brother explained that it can't be Linda. Her heart was in her mouth. Who else could it be? She was confused. "So...who could it be?" Linda asked. Linda is someone who only knows how to throw a tantrum and live a good life with the money that is provided for her. Besides that, she can't even do anything for herself. She needed people to think for her. It was a good thing that she was born in a rich family and that she had Reed as her older brother. Or else, she won't even be able to survive on her own as an adult. "Don't get too relaxed when it comes to that assistant of yours. I think that she's still going to do something. Even if she's not the one who spread the news, she's still one of the main focus of the scandal. Any normal person will take this chance to do you in. Do you get what I mean? She could very well confirm the news and it will be over for you. There's nothing to worry about concerning that small studio of you
"Are you stupid?? What is actually going on in your head?! Didn't I tell you that when you are dealing with people that you should be careful not to push them to thier bottom line?! I told you not to do it! For Lena, her bottom line is her younger brother! How can you challenge it repeatedly?! It's all good now! You have gotten what you want right? I'm really sorry but I can't deal with your mess right now! I need to take care of the company. You are not my priority!" Reed said angrily. He was already tired of having to clean up after this sister of his. Linda was scared when Reed said that he won't be taking care of her anymore. She knew that she could not do anything without her older brother's help. She immediately panicked. "Are you really going to abandon me? Is that what you want to do?! I'm going to tell dad!" Linda said. Her dad has always listened to her, she was sure that he will listen to her this time. Reed snorted. "Go ahead and tell him! I am sure that he wants to bre
Aryan owns the biggest finance company in the country. It's a child play if he wants to destroy thier entire company. They were rumors that he's a part of the mafia and that his company was only a cover up for the things that he does. Reed has every reasons to believe this rumour. But even the police could not find anything on him. It turns out that that man is not someone that he and his sister wants to offend at all. How can Linda be so dumb?! "What really is wrong with you Linda?! Do you want to have our entire family killed?! Even if you are arrogant and willful, don't you know that there are some people that you just can't mess with?? It's good! It's all good now! Of all the people that you could find trouble with it had to be Aryan Seagrave! We can all just wait to die! Wait, how did you even get to know him in the first place?!" Reed asked. Linda definitely will be the end of him! She knows a person like Aryan yet she wasn't even able to use it to help her family. Instead,
"All right, you can stop crying now. Your tears really won't so anything to help us. You had better be prepared. We will go and beg Aryan. We can forget about your career at this point but the company definitely needs to survive" Reed said. Apologizing now is the only way out for them. Linda nodded her head. She knew what will happen to her if she doesn't apologize. She did not want that. "Alright, alright. I'll apologize. As long as the person that I want to apologize to isn't Aryan. I'll definitely apologize. It's all good as long as I don't have to apologize to Odessa" Linda said. Reed looked at Linda like she had lost her mind. Just when he thought that she was finally growing up and she won't do something stupid again, she says something like this. "Do you think that you are in a position to say that here? Know that as long as Aryan wants you to apologize to her, you are going to apologize to her! She is his woman and you don't have a place to negotiate here!" Reed said. Lin
Let me ask you a question, do you think the police do no know about me?” I asked her a rhetorical one as I turned to look at her and saw she got my point, I continued upstairs while she followed “Do you think Odessa is the first woman I have kidnapped? Don’t you think there have been more? And if that is the case would you not think there have been people who have reported and me to the police?” “There are a total of 6 bed rooms in this house, 4 are all upstairs with conjoining restrooms and even their own seating room while just two are down stairs” I said as I showed her every single room, but I was convinced her mind was not at my house tour rather it was on what I had said last. “So about what I was saying last, if there are people like that who suspected me and believe I was behind the disappearance of their love one that would beg the question why haven’t the authorities done anything about it right? And even more where are all those who believe I was behind it? where are
Lucas drove carefully as he followed Aryan’s vehicle, he did not need to as he already knew the way to his home but knowing Aryan he might not be taking them to his house, maybe one of his numerous properties, he could not Imagine Aryan carrying Blair to his real home if he does not intend to kill her afterwards “You know you should be really careful how you accept invitations in the future” he said to Blair who was sitting at the passengers seat and awfully quiet. “Yea? Why?” She asked stubbornly “You know if it were just anyone and not you that there is a big chance you might die today? Do you know that?” Blair gave a skeptical laugh “And you think he would just get away with murdering someone? Who does he think he is?” She asked as she was getting upset. It was obvious she did not know the power and influence Aryan has “You really don’t know how powerful he is?” He asked rhetorically “Just don’t upset him please. That’s all I ask because if you do I am not certain I
“You! Where are you taking her to!” She suddenly turned to face Aryan as she attacked, this was exactly what I feared, exactly what I knew should happen“Blair! Please stop, not now!” I scolded her “But that is actually a great question!” Aryan said and I was forced to turn in my seat and look up at him, this could only be a joke right!? He was supporting her attack on him?Why!?“How are you feeling Odessa?” Lucas asked after he nodded to Aryan and Dave. It looked like he was trying to lighten the mood and remind every party that this was about me. “I feel better thank you” I said with a smile, he seems to be quite nice and polite to me, unlike Dave who always seem to act like I was the origin to all his problems. I was also sure Luca was not directly related to Aryan and his evil dealings. From what I heard they are friends, Lucas could be why you would call Aryan personal doctor and Lucas has nothing to do with the deaths Aryan was involve with, I felt safe allowing him employ
Today is The day I was officially declared fit and healthy to go back home. Today I was been discharged and though it meant I was okay, I did not feel fine at all because of the worry I could not eliminate. I felt like something really bad would happen today between Aryan and Blair. Aryan was the first to arrive as he was told earlier this morning that they would keep me for a last checkup just to be sure that I am fine, and the checkup would last until noon. He walked into my room pushing a wheelchair with him and Dave followed closely behind, it was obvious they both came from the office and I could see the wheelchair was new. “Hello princess” Aryan said gleefully as he greeted me, it almost seemed as if he was the one been discharged today instead of me, he looked genuinely happy. “Aryan that is unnecessary, I am capable of walking on my own” I said to him as he arranged the chair close to my bed and came for me. That was not entirely true, yes I could walk no doubt but I ha
Odessa saw Aryan was just as he imagined. very handsome and though he knew she did not feel anything for him he still could not help but admire his beauty from afar. In the dream she reached out to touch his shoulder, only to find that there was no skin on it. His breath caught at the thought of such a thing. Her long flowing hair was dark with streaks of green interspersed among them and her eyes were large, brown, innocent looking pools filled with kindness and concern. When she looked back at him a small smile came over her face“I am sorry” she said and turned away from him, “I have been told you are a bad man, and I don’t want that kind of life”He tried to reach out again, but his hands phased through her“No” the girl said, and her voice seemed to resonate inside of his head, causing him pain, she sounded like a song, like a sweet voice singing a sweet melody, he wanted to know more about her “you are a bad man who has hurt other people and I will always be worried about what y
If you killed him I swear...” “You will what!?” He shot back at me cutting me off as he came even closer, I leaned back further into the ground in fear“I really do not see what you all see in him, he is a common rouge, a gangster” “And you are a serial killer” I had no idea why I was attacking him, I knew antagonizing him was wrong but I could not help myself, I knew he had done something to Aryan and I felt like hitting him or somethingHe laughed dryly to my accusation “Aryan have killed more people than I have or ever will, he has started gang wars and wiped out entire families and bloodlines for his own selfish reason and you call me the bad guy?” He scuffed “You are really like her! Always defending him and indulging him”I had a feeling he was talking about their mother“What did you do to Aryan!?” I demanded, I know I was going to die irrespective and did not care about my tone. “He is fine but the tail he put on you, now that is a different story but about Aryan don’t wo
The last few weeks have gone smoothly, Blair had even found them a home and they both have visited it, Odessa loved the place as the space was enough for them both to live in, so without a second thought she bought the place, they then decided to decorate it to suit their needs and so the employed an interior decorator to suit that need while they waited. After extensive remodeling the interior decorator finally called that she was done and that this weekend they both intend to move in. meanwhile Elliott was executed, the day it happened Vivian cried out her eyes and even passed out and because of that I had to move in with them and Blair followed to keep me company, I kept her company and tired to lighten her mood, if took a while but gradually it got improved, even more so I accepted to be their CEO on the clause that if I believe it was not fit for me I would quit which they both agreed, Vivian was happy I accepted the role and both Vivian and Andrew showed me the ropes. With ti
Aryan ended his call as he looked shocked and angry all at once after just reviving the call. Dave looked at him from the rear view mirror “Is everything sir!?” He asked as he noticed the scowl on Aryans face, he knows Aryan do well and can tell when he is angry“We are being attacked” Aryan said simply but Dave knew exactly what he was taking about, infact he fear this might happen and he knew what caused this “What!” He asked in shock, still shocked they had the nerve to outrightly attack Aryan, everyone the the underworld knew he was ruthless especially to those who undermines his authority, provided you know your place Aryan was always willing to allow you do your business despite being an enemy but cross him and he would not just kill you but wipe out your entire generation and name, that was how he operated, he was known as the Legacy destroyer and so if you are willing to defy him you should be okay with not just kissing your life but those who bear your name and blood. “T
“Your stories had loads of loopholes and as much as I tried sweeping it under the carpet, it just kept staring into my face. The night of the murder, Jones was at your place, and left after the murder took place, helping you make it seem like it was a break-in attack.” the detective pointed out, bringing out her phone from her pocket.“That was the CCTV footage that showed Jones leaving your place at exactly 11:05 pm, on his bike after the murder, a few minutes to when the police made their way here.” The footage showed a dark figure on a motorbike driving out of the compound.“Impressive, you're not so dumb after all,” Hazel said with a dark chuckle. “Please carry on.”“Our investigations led us to the fact that Mr. Harold isn't your real father Hazel.” The detective deadpanned, watching Hazel's eyes go widened in large saucers.“Oh please, don't act like you weren't aware.” The detective rolled her eyes.“You discovered this at one of your drunken mother's sprut, where she mistakenl
