Chapter 141: It's Trouble Time

The car came to an abrupt stop, and Liam alighted from it; he stood for a split second, staring intently at the thirty-storey building his father had faced hell to build. The more steps he took closer to it, the more the reporters and bloggers rushed after him, all attempting to put their microphones close to his lips. He ignored them and left the trouble of keeping them a bay to his bodyguards.Liam walked in and the aura in the room was gloomy and depressing. Some of the staff have confused expressions or unkempt looks about them. The news had broken up at about 12pm so everyone had heard it by morning.He had to switch off his phone all night as the persistent calls he was getting from investors and business associates of Golden Fingers who were contemplating pulling out were infuriating.Amber had paced endlessly about in the room, biting her fingernails unconsciously and coming up with ridiculous ideas on ways out of the mess his father Rowen Hickson had caused; karma did choos

Chapter 142: We Are Never Getting Back Together

“When am I getting a brother too?”Those words raised Adrian's pent-up emotions; his eyes met Rissa's, who rather looked embarrassed. They had been dating for over two years now, and he hadn't popped the big question yet, which he knew Rissa must have started getting worried about.His memory of the day she had blatantly told him that she wouldn't be having another child yet until she was certain they were already committed surfaced in his head; he bit his lower lips, feeling like a failure.He had promised himself in the past that if they could survive the Pandora's box ruse, he was going to propose marriage to her, but all thanks to his desperation, the Pandora's box had turned into an endless cycle of trouble.“Sweetheart, Mum, and Dad aren't ready…yet”, he heard Rissa say.Rissa could feel her cheeks heating up as she had to defend something that had been baffling her too; their relationship could be envied; why the hesitance on Adrian's part? She wasn't desperate but more afraid

Chapter 143: What Is Mine

Adrian felt his blood boil as he flung open the door just in time to see the bartender caressing Rissa's exposed lap; he felt a murderous rage, and he rushed over to him and punched him in the face. The latter fell on his butt wide-eyed.“How dare you touch my woman!” He thundered.He rushed over to the chair and picked Rissa up who was muttering inaudible words. The bartender stood up abruptly, ready to fight back, when a strong hand held him in place. He looked up at the giant, muscled man in a suit, and fear gripped him.The bodyguard bowed slightly to Adrian and dropped the agape bartender back on the floor. He rushed past him to open the door of the bar and made for the car. Martha had reached out to him as Adrian had instructed her before he left hurriedly.They alighted from the car in front of the house and Rissa gently stirred awake. She closed her eyes again afraid she could be having a silly fantasy of Adrian. She remembered bashing him with spiteful words and rushing out

Chapter 144: Freedom At No Cost

“Planned! Liam was in the know all along?” Rissa questioned with wide eyes.She gulped down the coffee at a go; Adrian's eyes never left hers; he was enjoying the torturous effect of the revelation on her. She had lambasted him the previous night about betraying Liam Hickson, to know that it was a conspiracy between them must have shocked her to her bone marrow.“Amber must be as clueless as I am too”.Rissa said feeling stupid. Adrian turned his phone to her face and Amber's apology message popped up. The doorbell rang at that exact moment and Rissa rushed up to attend to it, still shaken by the news.A delivery man handed over a big package that was meant for the address to her. She carried it in and opened it, it was from Amber to Adrian, she had sent him different ointments for his reddish mark her hand must have left and a big cake with “I am sorry” boldly written on it.Adrian laughed heartily, falling in love with dramatic women must be a really bumpy ride Liam Hickson must hav

Chapter 145: Instant Spark

*Flashback*Rissa felt flustered as the mean-looking supervisor dumped the files on her table and gave her a “dig your head into it” look.She cursed inwardly at her ill luck for being transferred to the department in the first place.Another colleague of hers had kept rambling on how she barely had anything to do all day in her department while Rissa barely had time to even enjoy her personal life as a single young adult.She rested her head on the table forcing herself to defy her latest order. She had heard the CEO’s son was returning from study overseas, not that she cared at all.All she had ever wanted was for her internship to end and probably become a permanent staff member, but looking at her lackadaisical attitude at the moment, that sounded like a dream too good to be true.“Do you need a helping hand over there?”Rissa jolted up and turned her head slightly, her eyes bore into another; a voluptuous lady of about her age range, she had a beautiful smile plastered on her fac

Chapter 146: The Hickson Bride

Adrian couldn't help but smile inwardly as Rissa kept glancing nervously at the mirror checking on her flawless makeup and cloth hem. She had adjusted it for the up tenth time.“You look gorgeous already, babe.”Adrian held her hand in his and caressed them gently; it wasn't unusual for her to be nervous; she was attending her ex’s third wedding; what a hilarious turn of events.Rissa finally decided to let go of her insecurity as she adjusted the neckline of the flowing dress, her emerald green necklace matching perfectly with the floral pattern the gown was adorned with.Adrian had offered to recruit the best makeup artist in all of Los Angeles but Rissa had turned down the offer. Blending in with the crowd was the plan, but looking at herself in the mirror right now, she knew she wouldn't blend in, she was too stunning to blend in.They got into the car and zoomed off; the venue had been exquisitely decorated, as expected, with a shimmering interior. Adrian wrapped his arms around

Chapter 147: The Joyful Sound

The blind flung open, revealing the cool morning breeze; Liam breathed it in as he held his bundle of joy in his arms. She wriggled slightly, rubbing her face with her tiny palms.Amber giggled proudly as she watched the pure ecstasy on Liam's handsome face; he was grinning happily; a few hours ago, he had gotten a call from the hospital that his wife was falling into labor.He had left in the middle of a meeting with the top board of directors. He didn't care about the disapproving look on their faces when he decided what was more important, but he couldn't care; his child was about to be born.A rush of relief flooded Amber's mind when Adrian walked into the hospital ward almost out of breath and held her hand reassuringly. It gave her the courage to want to give him that joy he deserves.It had only been a few months since they got married, but their bond had grown stronger since then; Liam could barely do without hearing her voice for hours. Amber, too, wouldn't hesitate to call L

Chapter 148: Brazen

Relief flooded Adrian's mind, and his countenance lightened up instantly; both Perchy Peach and Golden Fingers had made it up to the top three. He smiled inwardly as Liam had winked at him.He made it outside the door of the big conference hall, holding Caleb's hand in his, looking down at his son; he had grown more to take too many of his very visible features. Was the war over? Of course not, he knew it was still far from it.In a few weeks, they were going to gather, and the winner would be pronounced to the world. The thought of it gave him cold feet, but celebrating this smaller win is a priority now, according to Rissa's advice. They made for the car parked outside when a petite woman rushed over to him.“Mr Grey, I am sorry for stopping in your way. Can I invite you to a dinner…..alone?” she emphasized the last word, looking sternly at Rissa.Adrian couldn't help but scoff, hitting on him right in front of his girlfriend was an outright disrespect. He wondered if declining rud

Chapter 149: Golden Opportunity

*Flashback* Diane kept glancing nervously at Mr Smith, whose concentration was sorely on his driving; she had wondered if he was going to have a change of heart; she had murdered his daughter Sydney after all. She had stilled the moment she sent a bullet flying into Mr. Denver's skull without thinking twice about it; why had he kept her alive? She wondered desperately. “If you are wondering why you are alive, you just had to fit into my sob story to get out of Los Angeles unscratched,” Mr Smith said without looking at her. “What story?” She questioned suspiciously in a barely audible whisper. “A father whose daughter was framed for fraud, and needs to lead her to safety,” the man said in a cold voice. Oh! Diane sank back in the car seat; it all made more sense; the immunity he had granted her lasted till they got out of Los Angeles. She knew she had to be prepared, but for now, she was safe. She breathed in dejectedly; her brain was literally shut off; she wasn't saved because

Chapter 150: Dinner At The Funeral

Mr Zurich's extended family sat with their hands crossed; a few minutes before the tragic incident, they had jumped up excitedly at the news that their company, Glass Brass, had made it effortlessly to the top three companies in the competition.They had prepared a grand dinner to welcome back the family with enthusiasm when the news of their tragic demise spread like wildfire. None of them had survived the car explosion, even the two children were burnt beyond recognition.The atmosphere in the air was stiff; Diane sat in between them, having a good time of her life, pretending to share their empathy. She showed up bearing gifts and condolence money which the family tried to refuse until she insisted vehemently.She downed a big bowl of the burial food, basking in the joy of it; her assistant Rosa looked over at her but kept to herself; she wouldn't want to cross the devil's way.“What are you thinking staring intently at me like that, did you just see the devil?” Diane questioned te
