"Ms. Juliet," Mr. Bruce turns and says respectfully. "Is there anything we can do for you?"This is a great man addressing her so respectfully as if she was bigger than him. This causes Juliet to be a bit nervous, making it hard for her to speak her mind.Noticing this, Lucien slips his hand into hers and squeezes softly as if reassuring her that nothing can go wrong. This instantly causes her to unwind. Yes, Lucien is with her. It is because of him that the old man is being respectful to her. There's nothing to be worried about.She clears her throat, looks up at Mr. Bruce, and says gently with a smile, "I told you to stop because I need to speak with Lucien before you leave. It is urgent that you both don't leave until I'm done speaking with him.""Oh, okay." Mr. Bruce smiles.She wishes to speak with me? Lucien looks at her right away. "Am I in trouble?" With a smile, he asks."Of course!" Juliet smacks him across the shoulder. "How could you tell them they could leave with the gif
Juliet sighs and tugs on Lucien's arm. "Is that still necessary?" She pouts."Don't even start, sis," Brianna scolds her. "Of course, it's necessary, and not even your pity can stop it! Lucien is going to have to teach them all a lesson! Only after that will they learn to fear you and realize you are no pushover!"Juliet groans. These are ladies and women like her. She knows what this can cause them. For the moment, she has forgotten these same ladies and women were ready and eager to watch her get stripped. All she cares about is what this will do to their self-esteem and future.She looks up at Lucien pleadingly and beseeches him to let it go but he remains expressionless and doesn't say anything. Only after that does she realize that her charm isn't going to work on him this time. His mind is already made up.She can only look up at Declan and clasps her palms together as she says persuasively, "You are his closest friend, Declan. Only you can talk him out of this. Please tell him
Brianna flares up. Using my sis to try to save yourself because you know she's softhearted? Hmph! What does she take us for? Fools? Hah! Such a sly manipulative bitch! "Get away from my sis, you bitch!" She spits and kicks Judy's hands off Juliet's feet."No, no, Juli, please say something. I know you despise me right now, but remember the times we spent together. Please remember that I used to be your friend. If for nothing else, please save me for the sake of the friendship we once shared. I'm pleading with you."Juli, please. I know you. You're not stonehearted. You are meek at heart. You won't want to see me do this. You won't want to see me get humiliated in this manner. Please don't do what you will regret later. Please save me. Tell your lover to let me off. For the sake of our friendship. Please, Juli. Please!" Judy bawls her heart out, clutching onto Juliet's feet once more and sobbing uncontrollably."Bitch! I said you...""Our friendship died the moment you made me a scapeg
"No way was I letting her do it. Mr. Wood, I'm really not that heartless. How could I have done such a thing? It was all just a ruse to get Juliet to accept my offer. Please, I was not going to let her do it! Believe me, I wasn't!" Elliot cries out amid shudders."Enough! To the next!" Declan's voice can be heard in the distance. While Lucien interrogates Elliot, Declan's gaze and camera don't leave Judy for a second. And the most intriguing part is that he sure knows how to keep to his slated time.This time, Judy does not argue with him. She moves quickly to the next person, who happens to be a lady."Hah! I'm no lesbo," she murmurs, but knowing she has no other option goes on to bare open the lady's hole and begin licking."So, what was this offer that my Juliet was supposed to accept that would have made you stop Brianna from licking her ass?" Lucien's grip on Elliot's neck is so tight that his eyes roll back into his head and he gasps for air. "Can't you speak?!" When Elliot woul
"Mr. Wood, I'm done with my task. Can I go now?" Seeing that Judy isn't ready to leave yet, Elliot seizes the opportunity to ask respectfully."Leave?" Lucien scoffs and shakes his head. "Are you any different from her? Perhaps, didn't you hear what I told her, or are you deaf now?"Elliot, unlike Judy, even though Lucien's words are harsh, does not say anything at all. He doesn't even the least frown, instead, he rushes over to Juliet, falls to his knees, and clasps his hands together as he says persuasively with his head bowed, "I apologize, for all I did to you, Ms. Juliet. I promise to repent from now on. Please accept my apologies. Please."Elliot had never before knelt and apologized to anyone. He had always been an arrogant brat who felt like no one was like him and he was the most powerful being alive.But he has just seen and witnessed what Lucien is capable of. Even if he wanted to seek revenge for the shame Lucien has brought him, he knows he has to be alive first to do th
What Elliot did not in any way expect is Lucien's last statement. He had deduced that when Lucien told him he could leave, everything was settled. He freezes in his steps and twirls to look at Lucien, his eyes welling up with tears. "It is enough that you intend to post that video clip, Mr. Wood. If that video gets to my father, I'll be at risk of losing my position in the family. It might not even end there. "My father is a principled man. Very strict and cultured. He could actually disown me because it would be so humiliating and unbearable for him."I'm only hoping it doesn't come to that. But if you still show up to seek an explanation from my family, I'll be dead meat. I'm certain my father would not only cast me out of his sight but also order my death just to save the family." He gets down on his knees. "Please, Mr. Wood, do not do this. Please don't do this to me."Lucien sneers. "Why should I listen to you?""I... I can do whatever you want. If you wish, I can be your lackey
Judy feels a rush of emotions all at once like never before; shock, gratitude, regret, and sadness.Her eyes are stinging with tears. She has no idea how Lucien learned about her family, but everything he said was nothing but the truth.She had come from a low-class family, but they weren't this wretched. There was a time they had everything they desired and lived happily. Her father was the presumed successor of her grandpa at that time and so held the most power in the family after her grandpa. He was the general manager of their apparel company, 'Simple Florals.'Even though they weren't well known in Richmond, let alone Virginia, he was able to collect 200,000 dollars per month in addition to extra shares and dividends.His earnings were sufficient to keep them going. That is, until she decided to enter the contest for the most beautiful girl in Virginia.It didn't cost much to register. But she topped it on her own so that she could have a few dollars to herself to pull some stri
Declan helplessly looks to Lucien for assistance. Of course, he is more concerned with pleasing Lucien, everyone is well aware of this undying loyalty to Lucien, but he also understands that he cannot casually ignore the ladies. They can be such a pain in the ass! He's at a loss for what to do right now. He doesn't know if he is to displease Lucien and please them, or displease them and please him. He is befuddled."He was referring to the corpses inside the Galaxy. And yes, I did murder Tyler's bodyguards." Declan is Lucien's buddy. He comes to his rescue without hesitation."Was that the reason you didn't want me to go look around today?"Lucien sees no reason to keep anything from her now that he has already told her the truth. He nods and goes on to say, "Declan is meant to clean up the mess before tomorrow. By the time he's finished and you go in tomorrow, there won't be a single hint that there was a massacre in there."Juliet looks at him for a long time and pouts. "It's been
As Lucien and Juliet walk through the door, into their room, Juliet bolts the door. The next second, she drops her nightgown.Lucien is backing her as he is trying to rid his body of his clothes. So, he is oblivious to this.Taking that as an opportunity, Juliet slowly frees herself of her panties and bra, standing in all her glory. It doesn't take long for her cheeks to flush red. For more than an hour now, she has been so aroused.Her mind couldn't stop flashing in her eyes what she and Lucien were doing before they noticed Brianna. The images got her so aroused. At a point, she began feeling helpless. In the space of two or three hours, she freshened up more than twelve times. Each time the urge was so much, she would rush into the bathroom and pour water on her body so she can calm down.But Lucien is here now. She doesn't know if she can wait any longer. No, she doesn't think she can. She slowly walks up to him at the same time Lucien is removing his pants and hugs him from behi
The ride to Dragon bay is a quick one as in the blink of an eye, the chauffeur pulls over in front of the gigantic gate, which appears to be glowing in the dark, making everywhere look so breathtaking."Wow," Brianna gasps whilst shivering in excitement. As soon as Lucien alights, she quickly follows him. But Lucien halts, causing her to groan. Her curiosity is at its zenith."You can leave now, Bryson, we will speak on the phone. Have a good night.""Alright, Mr. Wood. Have a good night's rest as well," Mr. Ethan replies reverently and taps his chauffeur who had been lost staring at the magnificent buildings behind the gate as if his life depended on them. "Let's go."The chauffeur snaps out of his reverie and nods, revising the car and zooming away.Lucien stares at the duty post of the old man from earlier and sees no one in it. Good, the man left. He then brings out his phone and dials Juliet's number."Honey," Juliet's sweet but tense voice sounds from the end of the line."Mi a
Brianna is perplexed. She furrows her brows as she asks, "How?"At this moment, before Declan can say anything, the car comes to a sudden halt and soft knocks are heard on the two glasses. Lucien unwinds one while Declan unwinds the other. It is the two Jacks and Tyler."You said you would be leaving for Washington, D.C. tomorrow, Mr. Wood, are we coming with you?" Tyler asks."Nope," Lucien doesn't waste a second shaking his head. "I'll be going with Declan alone. This is a family matter. Besides, as you guys know, it is Washington, D.C. that I'm going to this time, not some minor city around Richmond, your powers will be useless over there. Just enjoy your rest.""But this is also Washington, D.C., Mr. Wood, how would you survive over there alone if the Pearsons choose to attack? I heard they are one of the major families there.""It's a family in Washington, D.C., what can they possibly do to Lucien?" Declan retorts smugly. "You guys should just take a chill pill, we will meet you
Brianna is confused at Lucien's response to Declan. Of course, she knows who Ellison is but what she doesn't understand is what Ellison has done that Lucien plans to pay him a visit and seek an explanation. It should not be forgotten that Brianna was kidnapped before Ellison's men arrived to destroy the Mansion earlier so she has no idea that her family Mansion has been destroyed.She can only look at Lucien and asks, "What happened, Lucien? Why are you preparing to visit my dad's half-brother? What did he do this time?""It's like this," for several minutes, despite the fact that he wasn't the one asked, Declan takes his time to explain everything to her.By the time he is done, Brianna is not the only one boiling in rage, Nikki, Tyler, and the two Jacks can't also help the rage surging through them. Just like Brianna, they had no idea something of such happened before they left for East Highland Park. Hah! They are so shocked!"If the Mansion was destroyed, where then are we going
"This is the Douglas family Manor, what does what I'm doing here got to do with you?!" Brooks glares right back at Brianna and retorts coldly. It is safe to say that Brooks and Brianna share the same manner of animosity toward each other. Brooks is the reason the Pearsons ever fell. Brooks is the reason Juliet stabbed herself. Brooks also tried to kill Lucien.There's no how Brianna wouldn't hate someone who did all this. If she has her way, she would have ripped him to threads!On the other hand, Brianna was the only trump card Brooks had to get Lucien into his trap. He had also been salivating fucking her so many times till there was nothing more left to fuck.One could imagine how angry he is that all his plans have failed. And now, the same Brianna is questioning him? He wishes he can rip her useless tongue out of her mouth."Do you guys know each other?!" Seeing the grave animosity between the gent and lady, Ryan can't help but ask."Nah," after a while, Brianna shakes her head.
Muah!Muah!A soft sound echoes as Helen kisses Lucien's feet. The next moment, the Douglases also begin approaching Lucien one by one and kissing his feet. This goes on for more than twenty minutes before it finally comes to an end.Lucien is quite emotional. These people at the very last moment suddenly exalted him to the status of a God in their hearts. It's not something that happens often. A drop of tear slips from his eyes, silently dropping down to the floor."Lucien shed a tear," Declan gasps. The last time he saw Lucien shed a tear was when the young man Ares, told him about his parent's demise. Lucien hardly cries!He looks at the Douglases and says deeply, "You guys are damn lucky! You made Lucien shed a tear. Consider yourselves family from now on! Lucien would protect you all as a lion would his cub, as a father would his child, as a human being would his pupils, and as a God would his creatures!""Thank you, Mr. Wood! Thank you, Master!" The Douglases exclaim, so delig
All her life, Ava has always dreamed to live with and in power. It's not wrong to say she orchestrated everything. Yes, Hugo and Joseph used to be close brothers who were always there for each other. In the past, people who had no idea of their identity often mistook them for twins. This is because they wore identical clothes, went everywhere together, pursued the same type of girls, ate together, often bathed together, and were never seen apart.Even when Joseph became the helmsman, he never abandoned Hugo for one day, he always took him along and often asked for his advice before he made certain decisions for the family. It is safe to say that both of them ruled the family together without anyone knowing.But things began changing the moment Ava came into Hugo's life. She started planting evil seeds in him. Especially, when she found out that he and Joseph actually ruled the family together. At nights, when they were about sleep after lovemaking, she would begin telling him how goo
Brianna's face darkens. "Don't even think about it!" She snaps at Nikki, covers the remaining space between her and Declan, and takes his hand into hers. "He is mine! Go get yours!""I am yours?" Declan raises a brow at her. "Since when did I become yours?!""Ah, Mr. Declan, shouldn't you be happy?!" Helen eyes him up and down. "A few minutes ago, when you attacked Mr. Douglas, you had said he dared touch your woman. Just now, you were also apologizing to Ms. Brianna. From the look of things, you like her! Shouldn't you be happy she is accepting you?!""Uhm," Declan scratches his hair. That really happened. He definitely can't deny it."You really said I'm yours?" Brianna looks into his eyes and asks."I-" Declan nibbles on his lower lip. He actually said that to high his vigor so he would be able to attack Hugo. It's not like Brianna is actually his woman. They only had sex so how can she be his woman? He clearly lied!"I get it. You don't know what we are. But tell me, do you like m
"He has us in mind! See, he planned to pledge allegiance to Mr. Wood once he became the helmsman so he will lead the family to greater heights. He is just like his father. Selfless and always searching for every opportunity to move the family higher."A pity we listened to Hugo and Ava and killed him off with that accident. We even killed his baby mama. He was going to marry her that day and make her a real Douglas, therefore making Ryan a legitimate child! But we-" one of the elders, out of excitement, unconsciously blurts things he shouldn't have.By the time he regains himself and tries to shut his mouth, it's already too late! He had already dropped the bomb!"What?!" From the other end, Ryan who is still on the line, roars and jerks up, scaring the brunettes before him.He had always thought there was something off about the story of his parent's death Hugo told him when he was little. So he didn't think wrong all this time! His instincts never lied! Indeed, there is something of
