All Chapters of Lethal Beauty : Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Three guards rushed into the room at once and held Asriel down. He struggled to keep himself up, but they had overpowered.His blazing eyes glanced at Elvira. If hatred could kill, then his eyes alone could have thrown a thousand daggers at Elvira heart."You'll pay for this," Asriel uttered as he was dragged outside.The room became suddenly quiet, the board members glancing uneasily at the lady before them. They had feared Asriel, but if she were able to do that to him, then she was far more lethal." Forgive me for the little scene. I'm hopeful that we can't create good working conditions, and hopefully everything will run out smoothly.And I'm here to assure everyone here, that your investments are safe with me. Drusilla is here to help, and with her back, I'm sure your confidence in the company is upheld," The members only nodded at this." Anyways, I think that was enough drama for today. We'll organise a little party, just for us, to get to know each other better. Otherwise, I

" Thank you ma'am, I better get going now," Zia said breaking off the embrace. She had felt vulnerable for the first time in her mother's embrace, something she had yearned for her entire life, someone who truly loved her, her real mother, her she was, and she didn't feel all the warmth she had desired, more like she was forcing things from the other end." Zia, could we meet up and talk," Getrude said, holding onto Zia's hand." Sure, call me whenever you are ready," Zia said and broke away from her grasp. She turned around, holding the tears that threatened to fall from her eyes. She had lost a mother, yet gained another who seemed unwilling to recognise her.She wiped off the tear that had escaped her eye before she glanced around. Her eyes rested in the general, having a chat with Elvira. She now confirmed they had truly known each other." General, I must say I was surprised seeing you here," Elvira started." Likewise to you. So, what's your relations with Zia? " The general ask

Zia had driven fast out of the presidential estate. She had hoped to catch up with Alvin and maybe get to talk. But the road ahead was clear and awefully quiet. It was few minutes to eleven at night, when almost everyone had retired into their homes for the night.Zia had drifted off the main highway as she took a short cut that would lead back to her villa. She was driving fast when few meters ahead she spotted close to three vehicles that had blocked the road. She slowed down before she had retrieved her binoculars that were at her back seat.Her eyes scanned the cars from a distance having parked by the road. She had spotted close to three guys, heavy guns in their hands. Then her eyes spotted the car she felt a little familiar with, the same car she had found parked at the Washington family mansion.Zia squinted her eyes to get a clear view of the car, and she could see him, Alvin held at gunpoint by one of the men as the other ransacked his pockets, the other searched around in th

The general turned back and watched her." You don't want to scare away the brother I just met," Zia said.The general threw back the jacket onto the chair and sat back, dejectedly." Alright, just make sure you don't forget that he is your brother," Carlos said ." Are you serious about now Carlos, you dare say something like that to me?" Zia said, almost I'm disbelief. That had been a sick joke from him." I'm sorry dear, I'm just restless knowing that you are with a man you barely know in your house. What if he doesn't have the same feelings you have towards him and would like to take advantage of you?" Carlos said." Enough Carlos, I guess it's a long time. I better get some sleep," Zia said and cut the line. She didn't even wait for him to reply.A knock came through at Zia's door. She quickly reached for her bathrobe and covered herself before she went for the door.Alvin had turned to leave." You need anything Alvin?" Zia asked." I just wanted to let you know that I'll be le

Zia sighed before she took back her seat." Please Zia, check out the terms thoroughly. We are giving you sixty percent shares. Surely you can't find a better deal when the idea comes from us, you just need to invest," Kelon said adjusting himself. He gritted his teeth when he strained his shoulder that had just been dressed." Mr. Kelon, I don't think I can trust you enough with any business. From what I can see, you might have been involved in some serious criminal activities to leave you shot. How can I have someone like you as my partner?" Zia said with a smirk. Kelon was shocked that she even had an idea about the fact that he had been shot." I can assure you Zia, this business is legit. The land's title is also available. You could counter check it if that would give you the confidence required for this project," Kelon said almost pleadingly.He was loosing patience, and Zia was one of the guys who could help him out of the mire. He just wished that back then he didn't have the
