Thank you for reading. The next chapter is tomorrow, before 11am Singapore Time. Yes, the chase is happening soon.
"Evan, tomorrow, we can strike another deal," Mr. Romanov suggested. "It's good that you decided to visit. At least you can see how serious I am being a client in the many years to come." Mr. Romanov had taken Evan for a tour, driving from one showroom to another. "I expect over a hundred shipments
Silence stretched for seconds before James answered, "Oh, Sir. That's good to hear. I thought Miss Shanty was lovely. I'll do that first thing in the morning." *** The next day, Evan had an entire day of meeting with Mister Romanov and his executives, but when he was done, he immediately called hi
Evan was dressed in his best suit. He applied the perfume Shantelle always encouraged him to use. His hairstylist came to the villa and had his hair trimmed early in the morning. 'Shantelle would have already received her gown yesterday. I hope she liked it,' He thought in his head. After Evan's
Two buttons on Evan's shirt were undone. He had difficulty breathing and had to open part of his shirt. He could not believe his eyes. A new doctor was now occupying doctor Scott's clinic! "This can't be happening." Evan raked his fingers through his hair and looked around. Seeing several secretari
There was one last hope, and that was where Shantelle completed her degree. Doctor Scott was one of the founders of the school. Evan was convinced that Doctor Scott would never give up on his shares. If he did, selling them in just a few months would be close to impossible. Half an hour passed, and
Earlier that day, Shantelle was lazily preparing for school. She wasn't feeling well, but school was school. Every day is vital for medical school. After showering and changing into a pair of faded jeans and a white top, she made her way to the dining area to have breakfast. "Surprise! Happy bir
Keith laughed. He shook his head and replied, "I'm not interested in them, and... they are not at all wrong." Shantelle simply shook her head at his remark, not wanting to dwell on it. Keith was handsome and charismatic, but he was also Evan's friend. She did not want to go there with him. Moreover
"Oh, my goodness! Not again!" Mrs. Shaw exclaimed, seeing Evan being guided by Wendell into the villa's entrance at four in the morning. She tried to aid Wendell, but Wendell said, "It's okay, Mrs. Shaw, I can manage. Please help me open the door to his room." More than a week had passed since Ev
"Fuck. Lucas is back?" Lewis indignantly turned to Lily and asked, "Do you know about this?" "Is Lucas really back, Lily?" Lily's mother also asked in shock. All her brothers, except for Liam, asked the same thing. Lily helplessly looked at Liam, and seeing her brother wasn't going to spill eithe
"The aortic stent graft collapse," Doctor Steven reported to the Wright family. "That caused him to faint. So, earlier, we inserted another stent, and he is under observation." "I feel that there is a but coming," Lily's oldest brother, Liam, predicted. Behind him, all of Lily's brothers were givin
"Mommy, are you okay? You have been staring into spaces lately," Aiden asked. Lily was helping her son with his homework. While Aiden wrote his answers in the book, Lily was in a daze. "Sorry, Buddy. Was thinking of something," Lily said. "Are you done?" "Almost. I'm so glad your mission got canc
Liam had introduced Jake to Lily as one of their new contractors. Often, Jake traveled to other cities to make proposals, hoping to get another project for the company. That was why he was in Lockwood. "Lily, my job here will be extended for another week," Jake revealed. "But I'll see you after th
"You know what, Lucas? You are insane!" Lily yelled, pulling her arm away from him. She did it so forcefully that the necklace around Lucas' neck bounced to reveal that golden tag with her name carved on it. Instantly, Lily stilled. Her heart skipped a beat while her eyes were glued to the pendant
"He is an important person who needs protection. It will be your primary responsibility to oversee his security," the major loudly said to Lily while they were on a military helicopter, flying ten thousand feet above the ground. This was one of those odd assignments. When Lily arrived at the mil
"Somebody has guilt written all over their face," Lily softly commented, seeing her oldest brother, Liam Wright, in the dining area of their home early that morning. If anyone knew about the arrival of one Lucas Thompson, her brother would be it. After all, Liam previously managed the joint business
“Lily? My favorite daughter in the world is back!” Lily’s mother, Scarlett, exclaimed. Lily could not help but roll her eyes at her mother’s remark. She responded, “Mom, you can’t have a favorite daughter. I am your only daughter!” Scarlett laughed. Lily’s father, Kaleb, who was sipping tea in th
Of course, what did she expect? He left her without saying anything. So now, he was practically denying their past relationship by pretending not to know her! The truth was, it stung a little. When he disappeared, Lily cried an ocean for him, yet this was how he treated her now? Then again, Lily s
