“You know that he won’t be safe doing any transaction at the port without any protection from any powerful familia.” Verosha states her reason for her sighing to what she just heard from her husband but Lium seems not affected by it.
“You also should know that some of familia around the areas also want to have their own cargo port as one of their assets. It's a big and dangerous business to make.” She added that every familia or mafia or even gang had a shipping boat for their smuggling transactions whether they were big or small. It would be a dangerous business from her point of view.
Lium understood what and where his wife was coming from since Verosha was a leader of her own familia that she inherit from her mother. She knew how dirty, dangerous, and deadly to have a business
There was a chuckling drunken voice from a very familiar prey that was totally a sore in Verosha’s life. Barron Castle. ‘Well, hello my dear and lovely Verosha, how are you? I hope you’re doing great because soon or maybe later, everything you own will be gone in your hand.’ “Oh, don’t worry, I’m all good. And about the money that I own, every ounce of it will go to the charities that I am helping and the rest will be divided among every loyal worker in my company. It will be a very generous treat for them which you’re not going to receive anymore.” Verosha coldly answered as she heard a drunken voice from Barron. He was totally drunk early in the morning. ‘YOU’RE GOING TO PAY FOR THAT!’ “Pay? For what? You put yourself in that position so don’t blame me f
“I need to have a meeting with the entire design team department so this will be lessened and hoping for more proposals to be approved for their early release.” Lium explained to his wife that the design teams were having the same problems and he need for them to know it instead of talking with them one by one. “So to do that I need to have the list of those projects that you already approved so they’ll be exempted from the meeting and I might use their projects as their inspiration or reference.” he added as he was finishing his meal. “Hmm, if you’re going to show their projects, why not let them inspire them?” Verosha suggested and Lium’s eyes went wide from what he just heard from his wife. He grinned at the idea. “That’s a nice call. I’ll do that better since I don’t want to do all the talking there.” he kiss
Leaving the company first, Verosha went straight to her dinner meeting with investors and clients from international. Even though she doesn’t like the idea of attending the meeting alone, she has to do it for the sake of her employees in the company. She was not just working for herself or her family but for everyone who was loyally working with her. But there was something making Verosha a little bit agitated like as if something bad will happen later. She really hates that feeling but at the same time, the adrenaline of excitement will soon awaken her again. “Lady Vero, are you alright?” Max asked when he noticed some cold and foul mood written over Verosha’s face while they were on the way to the venue. “I am fine…I just got the feeling something will happen…I am not sure if it is a good thing o
But that was not the only thing that they did because Max, pulled out his gun and hit their tires. It was making the two cars in front of them stumbled on the road before slamming on the concrete barrier on both sides. “That’s a nice hit!” Max was indeed enjoying himself from the action on the road. Andy shook his head and looked over the rear mirror to check on their lady boss. “Are you okay, Lady Vero?” Andy asked as they passed the two cars with the almost wrecked and the last car tailed them. “I’m perfectly good. But I’m not sure about the next harsh impact.” Verosha was being honest about what she just felt there and protecting her abdomen after it happened. “Glad to hear about the concern. I’ll remember that just hold on.” Andy nodded and c
Verosha might be blushing but she just decided to ignore her cousin’s teasing grin and just gave her honest answer to her husband. “The dinner went well and I closed the deal with them. I already like their idea and the only thing I suggested to them was the features and luxury of the hotel. They love my suggestion and it will branch out soon. So, better prepare yourself because you’re going with me when we visit it one day.” she answered her husband’s question, and Lium liked the idea and kissed her cheek. “I’m cool with that.” he smiled at the thought of traveling outside of the country with his wife even though it will for some business purposes. “And you? How about the late work that you were doing before I left? How does it go?” Verosha asked in return about his work as soon as she left the co
Sensing something was up from her husband due to the tone that he used to them, Verosha took the liberty to sit up straight on the bed and called for her husband’s attention. “Where are you going?” Veosha asked directly her husband who was about to leave her at the hospital while he handle something on his own, again. “Back to the office, there was something I would like to check there first and I might not go home. But I’ll be back here tomorrow.” Lium assured his wife but Verosha was not buying it. She could tell that he was totally up to something. “Okay, be careful.” but those words escaped from her mouth, and let her husband deal with whatever he thought might be needed on doing. “Love you.” Lium professed and kissed Verosha’s lips lovingly.
Lium might be watching carefully every move that Barron and his men have been doing on their own while listening to Luisito. “No wonder her hands were shaking when she saw her vulnerability to me that time…” Lium thought to himself when he heard it. He knew that his wife was not born to kill but she was forced to do so. And even her hands were tainted by those blood, she still managed to crawl back to the light and help the innocent blood of those people who betrayed her parents. “Where are they?” he wondered about those innocent youngsters who have no connection to what happened to his wife’s parents. “The oldest ones were already married and settled down while the others were either traveling around the world, doing their business, and the youngest was in college with a double master's degree.” L
“YOU KNOW ME WELL!” he punched Lium’s stomach as he shouted at him. Lium groaned in pain and cough a little. Being a good actor, Lium managed to provoke Barron Castle to hurt him but he must make it more believable and full of annoyance to Barron’s side. “NO, I DON’T!” Lium shouted back at him but of course, he also saw it coming and he was once again being punched through his handsome face. “YOU REALLY THINK THAT I WOULD BUY THAT?! I’M NOT STUPID!” Barron punched him twice already on his stomach making Lium cough blood. “But you are stupid for not knowing anything.” Lium thought to himself while he received punches. “Argh…just let me
A month later at the Kim-Mondre mansion, the house was full of squealing and giggling voices of the children while being chased by their mother. But it vanished a little when something suddenly happened to Verosha. “WHAT THE FUCK!” Verosha exclaimed when Lium suddenly abducted him from playing with the kids who were just laughing and waving their hands to their parents. “Good luck, Daddy.” Lillia was giggling as she wished their father good luck. “Have fun, Mommy!” Raven shouted while waving his hand to his mother who was being carried by their father. “We need good news, Daddy!” Veronica teased their parents which made them laugh innocently. “What are they talking about, hubby?” Verosha a
Giving birth to three babies, Lium’s hand needed some replacement from the deathly grip that Verosha had given to him. But it was not the only case that Verosha gave to her husband. Aside from breaking some bones on Lium’s left hand, pulled his left ear then earned a very have slapped on his face and followed by a punch that caused him to be knocked out as soon as the delivery ended.“Where am I?” Lium quickly asked as soon as he woke up from being the punching bag of his wife during the delivery of their babies.“Hospital.” their family doctor answered.“What happened to my wife? My babies?” he quickly asked in a worried tone.“They were fine but you need to let your left hand rest. Your wife really bre
Ever since that night Lium made sure not to get on the wrong side of his wife. He still need his sleep and he was losing it whenever Verosha punished him with making love and no sleep at all. It was lovely to do with the person you married and in love with but the no sleeping part was the thing making him exhausted. “Babe, wake up. We’re here.” Lium could hear the gentle and loving voice of his wife waking him up. He just hummed yet his eyes were still closed while they were in the backseat of their car. “Babe, are you okay?” Verosha gently asked her husband after stretching his cheek slightly and waking him up already. “I’m supposed to be the one who’s asking you that since you’re pregnant.” Lium smiled and kissed her cheek. “Well, I’ve been wak
Not even counting the days or weeks but the feeling of what happened with Barron’s torment still lingers in the mind of Lium Kim-Mondre. Not because of his exceeding his limitation that his wife has to calm down but instead of what his wife just did to him afterward. ‘Honey, talk to me, please.’ ‘Verosha.’ Lium remembered how he called his wife with his pleading voice but there was no response aside from cold shoulders. But once they’ve reached the Lilium Familia’s mansion and inside the master’s bedroom, Verosha vanished before his eyes - that’s how fast his wife moved. ‘Honey, please, talk to me. I need you to speak to me. Where are you? Please.’
Being left in her creepy jail room or the torturing chamber, Verosha began cracking her stiff body. Then she began checking which toy that she’ll be going to use that has been prepared on the steel table. She was humming a melody that came into her mind until she recall wearing her favorite crimson-red gloves. “I almost forgot you.” Verosha chuckled and went back to humming while setting the toys that she decided to use for Barron. Verosha began cracking her fist and took the bucket that was full of cold water before tossing it to the unconscious Barron. He quickly jolted from the coldness of the water before wondering where he was again. “How’s your dream?” Verosha put the bucket down and faced the steel table again thinking about what she would use first.
Verosha made sure to sent Barron Castle first to Lilium Familia’s property and let her men prepare things for her arrival. But first, she had to make sure that her sleeping husband on her lap was not dying in her arms. “You really made your plan play well.” Verosha sighed with a worried tone while caressing her husband’s sleeping face. Even though it was messy due to the cuts and bruises, Verosha still found him attractively stunning and lovely in her eyes. “I love you and I will make him pay for these wounds that you’ve received.” She added as she spit venom as if she was cursing Barron for what he had done to her husband. Sensing the sudden shift of the dropping temperature, Verosha’s men with her jolted in fear due to the cold aura that she was releasing that goes along with
But even though Verosha was liking the idea that her husband just shared with him, she smacked the back of the head of her husband once again that making him pout. “Seriously, you miss hitting me, don’t you?” Lium sighed while pouting but his wife just rolled her eyes away from him. “That’s just for making me worried and you look hideous.” Verosha seriously told him before she looked toward Barron who was being lunatic already. “Sorry…” he apologized to his wife but Verosha was not in the mood on listening to his apologies because there was a serious matter that needed to be taken care of as soon as possible. “Apologized later.” Verosha only managed to say and it was very cold. “Why do you sound like you’r
When they saw Barron’s men leave as if it was their cue to leave them alone, Lium let Barron go on doing his punches and kicks but there was nothing. Lium literally felt nothing as Barron’s attack was getting weaker than earlier. ‘10…9…8…’ “Was he counting?” Tash wondered since they began hearing some counting voice in the background. “He does that when he was about to do something that nobody expects that he will do.” Leafa smiled while she pointed to them what was happening to Lium’s spot. ‘...7…6…’ But when Lium’s counting reach five, something was indeed changing in his movement. The impact from Barron’s punches or kicks was making Lium move drastically back and forth.
Verosha’s mood was totally shifting into something that new members of the Lilium Familia haven’t encountered yet. Only those who knew and worked with her knows whenever she was in that zone, she can never be stopped from giving nightmares to her prey. “Leafa, make sure to send me the proper location of their hideout.” Verosha commanded with her usual cold voice that made Leafa shiver a little. “Are you going in?” Tash asked. “Precisely.” she answered. “Alright but wait for a moment, Lady Vero. There’s a specific time that you need to be there.” Leafa sighed and calmly informed their lady boss not to engage in the warehouse. “Do you expect me to wait here while my husband could die there in the hands of th
