Today is the court summons on Leo’s case Because he refused to refund the money he squandered. So they have to take it to court, and Shawty has to be present too since she was the one who ordered his arrest.The car drove into the court building; Fredrick was with her, and the driver was the one driving the car. Fredrick and Shawty were sitting in the passenger seat.The car suddenly jerked forward and stopped. Fredrick immediately stretched his hand to prevent Shawty’s head from knocking into the seat."What is that?" Fredrick asked with a frown."Uhmm. I don’t know. A mad woman suddenly walked to the car, so I had to stop the car quickly to prevent hitting her," The driver explained.Shawty frowned and looked out of the window. She saw Gladie standing outside in the midst of the reporters. She narrowed her eyes when she did not see Herla. The reporters had already surrounded their car; they could not do anything except wait. They could see that the car was expensive, and they would
The first lawyer stood up and said, "My órd, my client here graduated with a first class in business. So why will she try to frame her uncle just because of those silly things? I can only present to you the evidence that I have here," He said, passing the documents to the clerk.He looked at it and passed it to the judge, who read it and closed the document. He looked at Leo and shook his head."Mr. Leo, there is a lot of evidence that does not look like it was framed. And there is also evidence that Miss Logan here graduated with a first-class degree, so there is nothing like her being jealous of you. So I hereby order you to return 300 million dollars to Miss Logan.""What? I only took 200 million dollars," Leo interrupted, agitated.His lawyer looked at him and shook his head. "Is he a fool or something?’ He denied it before, but now he has indirectly admitted it. He suddenly felt tired; he was defending a foolish man.Leo also realized that he had misspoken; he immediately kept hi
"Can you identify the person he asked you to deal with in these three pictures?" The lawyer asked him. The man looked at the pictures and pointed at a certain picture."It is this person," He said with a certain expression."Are you sure?" The lawyer asked him and then looked at the picture.The man nodded firmly and said, "That is right, I will never be able to forget this because he also sent some killers and murdered my brothers." The man glared at Leo with a vicious glare.The lawyer nodded and gave the pictures to Shawty. "Miss Logan, can you identify your father in these pictures?" He said it politely.Shawty nodded and looked at the picture. She pointed at her father’s picture. "This is it," She told the lawyer.The lawyer looked at the judge, who had been watching everything unfold silently. The judge looked at The man who was escorted into the courtroom."Do you have any evidence to prove that Leo instructed you to go and murder your brother?" The judge askedThe man nodded a
She suddenly had the urge to talk to the man, but she wanted to talk to him privately, so she did not stop the officer who was leading the man away. Drake held her hand and tightened it when he saw that her attention was drawn away. She finally looked at him."Do you know him?" Drake asked because he knew that she just does not look at anyone randomly and focused on the person. Shawty shook her head. "I don't, but I had the feeling that he was familiar." She responded. Drake nodded thoughtfully, even though he did not want to say anything. He actually did not want to prey on the hidden exchange between them. He held her hand, and Shawty looked at Gladie and Herla. Gladie’s attention was on Drake. He was so handsome that she was looking at him in a daze, forgetting that her father had been escorted away to be executed.She suddenly felt a chilly sensation run through her body. She looked at Drake and realized that he was looking at her with a scary look. She immediately looked away be
The man nodded and said, "That is right; your parents were already dead. It seems your parents have a lot of enemies, and they already completed the mission first." The man saidShawty frowned and looked Drake, who was also looking at her, was shocked. They already thought it was Leo who did it, so they did not think that there was still a bigger conspiracy behind everything.Oh," Shawty muttered, nodding her head."I saw you hiding under the bed that night and carried you to the orphanage. I guess you were so traumatized that you did not even recall what happened that night after because you passed out in my arms," The man continued.Shawty frowned and thought deeply. She really did not recall this scene, but she was truly found at an orphanage by Uncle Simon, who took her to Leo’s house since he is her only family member remaining."I am not saying this for you to forgive me, but I am just telling you all of this in case you are unaware. The day you were sold to the human trafficker
They were also among the people who cried bitterly at her parents burial ceremony.They don’t even care about her and just insult her, gossip about her, and make fun of her. She was always alone and felt lonely; even the maids treated her poorly, even though they were being paid with her parents money.Gladie also treats her like shit; she always insists on wanting anything that belongs to her. She was already fond of snatching her toys when she was young. All of her toys were snatched by her, and if she tried to kick up a fuss, they would scold her and call her an ungrateful brat. She could not even give her sister her toys to play with.Their characters worsened and became more unbearable. Even the room in which she was sleeping was dirty and small; even the maid's room was better than hers. While Gladie’s room looked just like a princess's and was painted pink, everything in the room was pink. The time Uncle Simon came to check on her, he asked them to show him her room, and they t
She dipped her hand into her pocket and brought out her phone. She glanced at the screen and saw that it was Emily.She answered the call and put the phone in her ear. "Hello" "How are you?" Shawty asked, trying to make her voice normal even though it still comes out hoarse."I am fine; I saw the news about your uncle’s arrest. Is everything alright?" Emily asked in a concerned tone.Yes, you don’t have to worry; just focus on your education," Shawty responded.Oh, your uncle’s wife is too much; it is clearly her husband who is at fault for squandering the company’s funds, but she still expects you to forgive him just because of what?" Emily asked in an agitated tone."I thought you were focusing on your education; how did you know about all of these? Have you been watching the entertainment news when you were supposed to be reading?" Shawty asked sternly.Emily stuck her tongue out on the other side and said, "All work and no play will make me a dull girl." She responded cheekily.S
Shawty smiled and said, "I am fine. Thanks. I also remembered everything that happened in my childhood. Even though I was staying with my uncle, you never stopped coming to check on me. I am sure my dad will be happy, and he also knew how sincere you were towards him," Shawty said with a grateful smile."Forget it; I did not do anything. If I really did something, I wouldn’t have let you stay with him and would have let you get kidnapped for so many years," he said in a regretful tone.Shawty smiled and said, "It is fine. God knows the beat. There is no need to be sad anymore. The killer has been caught already. You should instead feel relieved," She said."But I am still useless; I did not get evidence that Leo is the one behind it," He said sadly.Shawty smiled. "I also find out by coincidence that it is nothing," She responded.They chatted before they finally ended the call. Shawty opened the car door and got out of the car. She walked into the house with Fredrick following her be
The pain she expected did not come. She opened her eyes closely and saw that Simon was on the floor, holding his legs. His face was twisted in pain. Shawty raised her head and looked up. She saw that the person who actually shot him was the man who came in earlier and tied her. She frowned, wondering why he was helping her.I hope it is not like she was escaping from the fry pan to the fire instead."Who are you? You are not Elliot," Simon said in a confident tone.The man, ‘Elliott, just smiled. "Did you not message me to come here? You still don’t know or recognize me?" The man asked with a smile.Simon was stunned; he pointed his finger tremblingly and said, "YYou are Fredrick? How come?" He asked in shock.Shawty was also shocked; no wonder she felt that the man was awfully familiar, so it was actually Fredrick, just like she expected. She did not expect him to really come.Fredrick just smiled."You cannot escape; before you are able to leave here, my men will kill you," Simon sa
She was so shocked that she could not even speak. She was silent for a while before she finally regained her composure."Uncle Simon?" She called hesitantly. She still felt that she was not seeing things properly.Simon walked toward her with a smile."Why are you here? Did you hear about what happened to me when I came here? You should not; you will be risking your life by doing this," Shawty said with a concerned expression on her face.Simon chuckled. "You are really funny; you have not been able to escape, but you are thinking about me." He said it with an amused expression.Shawty narrowed her eyes. She was connecting the dots, but she still felt that it was impossible. She shook her head. "You are the one behind all of these?" She asked hesitantly.Simon smiled. "You are very smart, just like your mother," He said with a smile.Shawty shook her head in disbelief. It was not that she did not think about it when he walked into the room. But everything and how he behaved whenever s
Five days later.Shawty looked around the room, feeling bored. She was expecting Leonard to come; maybe she would finally meet the mastermind today. All they wanted was for her to regain consciousness before they could finally move on to the next mission.The room door opened, and a man walked in. Shawty guessed that it was one of the bodyguards, but she had never seen him before.He walked toward her.Shawty felt he was familiar, but his face does not look familiar. But he really was familiar. She does not know why she felt that way. She suddenly thought of Fredrick. She shook her head. ‘It seems she was missing Fredrick so much that all men now looked like him to her, She thought.The room door also opened, and Leonard walked in. Shawty looked at him and said, "You cannot even at least knock on the door; what if I am changing or something?" She said, feeling angry.Leonard glanced at her briefly and asked, "What are you trying to hide? I have seen it when you were young a lot of tim
Fredrick walked out of the company.Ring!!He dipped his hand into his pocket and brought out his phone. He glanced at the screen and saw that the caller was Chris. He answered the call and put the phone on his ear."Hello" "Come to my house if you are less busy; my men figured out something," Chris said immediately.Okay," Fredrick replied, getting into the car.The driver started the car and drove out of the company. He drove into Chris’s garage. Fredrick opened the car door and got out of the car.He walked towards his house, opened the door, and walked into the house. He looked around and only saw his second in command; he did not see Chris."He is in his study room," his second in command said to him when he saw him.Fredrick nodded. He climbed the staircase and walked towards his study room. He opened the door and walked into the study room. Chris was sitting down in front of his laptop.Fredrick looked at him and sat down beside him. "What is so urgent that you asked me to com
Even her suicide was fake. She knew that the people behind everything would save her. She was killing two birds with one stone: first, she would be able to figure out the mastermind behind all of this, and second, she would be able to erase everything. Her pregnancy was totally unexpected; she did not even know that she was pregnant. She only knew that the mastermind wanted her; she did not expect to cover so many things after days of being here.She used her suicide as a trap; she was guessing if the mastermind would save her. If he did not, then Jay was already prepared to save her too. When the mastermind saved her, she knew everything before she passed out. That was why she also discovered that getting to Leonard’s den was not that simple. The mastermind is the one behind Leonard, and Leonard also confirmed her guess. When he was talking with Luke, Fredrick's stepbrother He mentioned the hidden boss, whom she never even knew or met since she was there. She met a lot of people but
Leonard was shocked, as expected; he turned his head and looked at Luke. "What? He resumed with the company already?" He asked.Luke nodded and said, Yes, I am just coming back from there. He is back at the company," He said.Leonard looked at him. "You should leave before he suspects you and traces you to here now," He said with an anxious expression.Luke nodded. Even though he was unwilling to leave, he still had to because Leonard might order his bodyguards to throw him out of the house, and he did not want that kind of situation.He turned around and walked out of the room. Leonard was silently looking at the unconscious woman."I know you have regained your consciousness. There is no need for you to pretend anymore. I am not playing those games with you anymore," He said with a stern expression.The woman on the bed did not move. She was still in the same position, like he was not talking to her."Are you still pretending? I will call the doctor to remove the tumor in your stoma
Fredrick walked into his office, looking thoughtful. Even though Luke had already told him that it was a mistake, he did not want to believe that there was such a mistake. He dipped his hand into his pocket, took out his phone from his pocket, and dialed Chris’s number.The phone rang for a while before he finally answered it on the third ring. "Hello, are you already missing me? Is that why you are calling me just a few hours after leaving my place?" Chris asked."I think Luke is suspicious; help me follow his movements. He might know something," He said in a serious voice.Okay, on it!" Chris immediately responded with a serious expression. Once it was time to be serious, he was always serious.Fredrick immediately hung up after this. Chris was furious on the other side and almost banged the table angrily. This ungrateful man did not even tell him thank you and just instructed him like he was his surrogate. He is so annoying.Luke walked into the house, looked around, and saw that t
He frowned, irritated that someone was not minding his business. The female employee raised her head and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Drake."President!" She cried out in a joyful voice. She felt like it had been years since the president left. He would never let her do this or lick his shoe like Luke demanded. She was very happy when she saw him.Luke froze. He was in disbelief and raised his head slowly. He was stunned when his eyes met Fredrick’s cold eyes."You …" His eyes widened in shock when he saw him, like he saw a ghost.Fredrick smiled. "I am back," he said.Luke asked dumbfoundedly, "Why are you back?"He asked. "Are you not supposed to be heartbroken about..." He immediately stopped talking when he realized that he was about to spill the beans.Fredrick raised an eyebrow. What happened to Shawty was not known by the public; only Chris knows it, so why was he acting this way?"What do you mean? Heartbroken? About what?" He asked him, searching his eyes for answers.
The employees immediately walked towards their various posts. Luke lifted his head up haughtily; he was very happy to see that the employees were all listening to him. The employees were only listening to him because they did not know who would win the fight between the two of them, maybe Fredrick or Luke, so they had to obey whatever so they would not be implicated. They never thought about the fact that if Fredrick instructed them to do something and Luke instructed them to do something else, who would they listen to? They did not think about that.He walked toward the elevator. He stopped as he was about to enter the presidential elevator. He looked at the presidential elevator with a greedy look. The elevator will soon be his. The elevator has a fingerprint scanner that works only with Fredrick and anyone else he wants to allow to use it. If not, he would have taken the elevator as his from the very beginning. But it is just a little time; with the elevator, he will be able to use
