Chapter 51

A shocking revelationAdrian's POV"You killed him?" James asked, his brows raised. "Why?""He became worthless the moment he failed to perform the simple task given to him" The old man stated, blowing the smoke off the pistol in his hands. "I don't hold on to cowards for too long."I scoffed inwardly, observing the man. It was quite rare to find old men like him with such guts. Others would have left their lackeys to do the dirty work."Now, back to business" He broke the silence, glaring hard at James. "Were you the one who knocked my right-hand man down?"James swallowed hard and threw a glance at me. He wasn't scared, was he?The old man's gaze was piercing. Even the rest of the men my people had managed to subdue were shaking in fear. I guessed it was understandable.Getting involved was inevitable then."He did" I replied with an indifferent voice, dipping my hand into my pocket. "Your men trespassed by working on the land that legally belongs to me, so they had to pay. Don't te

HopelessLuisa's POV"How much is the money?" I berated, cutting him off."Money?" The man laughed. "Who told you we needed your money?""What then do you want?" I asked, sensing an ominous sign."Keep quiet and hear him out. Stop jumping to conclusions on your own" Spencer chipped in, his tone threatening. I didn't dare speak after that.I remained silent, waiting patiently to hear their demand. Suddenly, the door opened and men holding guns trooped in with a grim look on their faces.My heart jumped into my mouth as I stared at them with fear written on my face. It was not what I planned for.My head snapped to the two men sitting in front of me."What's going on here?" I questioned, my voice trembling. "I thought the deal was between the three of us.""It is" Spencer replied, smirking. "We just need to make sure you follow every instruction given to you without showing even a tiny little bit of resistance. Stanley, over to you.""Now, listen" The elderly man called Stanley said, hi

AttackedAdrian's POV"He's gay!!" James yelled, his face etched with horror. "What the actual heck?!"I smirked. "I know, right? I texted Miguel before Philip arrived. I told him to prepare more men and get incriminating evidence that could bring the enemy down.""You mean you knew about this all along?" James questioned, looking upset.I shook my head in denial. Not like I owed him any explanation, but he needed to know the truth."I didn't know about the truth until you mentioned it" I countered. "I'm surprised too, but nothing in this world is supposed to catch us unaware. There's still more we haven't known of yet."James laughed wryly, scrolling through his phone. "I get your point, Big boss, but this man is old. Videos are trending online, except for the fact that his face is not visible. He's lucky.""He's not" I argued. "We made it that way. If he doesn't get his people off my land within the stipulated time, the full video will be released.""Gross!!" James whined. "It's dis

RescuedAdrian's POV"Get your filthy hands off her now" I commanded with an indifferent voice. I realized showing my emotions would only put me at a disadvantage. Yes, it was my territory, but I needed to maintain my image."Or what?" The man challenged, snapping his fingers. Two of his men tossed their guns aside and dashed towards me with their fist balled, ready for a fight."Hmph...." I pursed my lips and dodged the first fist effortlessly. I grabbed the second one and twisted it, making the man wince in pain.Satisfied, I sent him flying backward with a strong kick. The first man was staring at me with shock written on his face.It wasn't my fault. I barely showed my skills unless I was pushed to the wall. Also, controlling my strength was quite difficult. My blood was already boiling with excitement. They had angered me, awakening the demon in me.I swiftly grabbed his neck with his hands and slammed his head against the wall. I repeated the same actions again and again till he

ConfessionAdrian's POV"Boss, I found something" Miguel announced. "Pardon me, but I hacked into Madame's phone.""Go on" I urged."The second to the last person she spoke to was a colleague of hers in Spotlight Desk. Her name is Rose" Miguel further revealed. "They were supposed to meet at Madame's house, but she met with someone else. That isn't the important thing right now. The main thing is the same Rose was seen going into Elite Club through the CCTV footage an hour before Madame got there."I was confused. "Unharmed?""Yes, boss" Miguel affirmed. "She went in on her own accord. We need to find her before she escapes. I believe the men you captured are in the best position to help solve the mystery.""Can't you dig further?" I queried, clenching my fist."I can, and I'm on it, but we need the men's confession too" Miguel stated with conviction.A moment passed before I replied. "Fine. I'll head to the basement when I'm done sorting the hospital issues. For the time being, focus

CaughtAdrian's POV"It was all Rose's idea" Stanley began, breathing heavily as he stared at his younger brother who had passed out.James, on the other hand, was busy cleaning up his tools. I was sure he was listening with rapt attention."Go on" I encouraged. "Who exactly is this Rose? How did you get to know her and what has she got to do with Miss. Fernanda?"Stanley sighed deeply. "Rose works in the studio department in Spotlight Desk. After the drug scandal, she came to us and made an offer.""What offer?" I probed."To get rid of Luisa for her" Stanley replied. "It seemed they had issues a long time ago, so Rose saw the drug incident as an opportunity to have her revenge. She fabricated the lies, she also gave us the lady's house address. We were only doing our jobs.""So you're saying she has no sick mother?" James chipped in, his brow arched.Stanley shook his head solemnly. "No, she doesn't. Like I said, it was all a lie to draw the lady out to us."At that moment, my phone

Chapter 57

RealizationLuisa's POVI slowly opened my eyes, wincing at the bright lights. My heart throbbed and my mouth felt dry. Where was I?My eyes fluttered around as I became conscious of my environment. Machines beeped and IV tubes snaked down my wrist. There was this banging pain in my head that doubled as I tried to recall the incident before I blacked out."Arhhhhh" I growled in frustration.Suddenly, I heard the door creak open. I strained my eyes to see a young man wearing a white coat with a stethoscope wrapped around his neck."Oh... I see you've woken up. That was fast" the man stated with a bright smile that made my heart beat faster."How did I get here?" I asked, my throat patched and my voice hoarse.His brows arched. "You don't remember? You were drugged and Mr. Martinez brought you to the hospital.""Adrian!" I exclaimed in surprise. "How did he find me?""That means you don't remember anything" The doctor sighed deeply. "You should try to relax your brain for the time being

EmbarrassedElizabeth's POV"Is everything set?" I questioned harshly, glaring hard at the maid who stood before me, shuddering in fear with her gaze fixed on the ground.She nodded her head vigorously. "Yes, it is.""I want no mistake" I warned sternly, satisfied with her reaction.Yes, they were all supposed to fear and respect me. I was the future mistress of the Martinez family and should be treated as such.I stole one last glance at the kitchen, before turning to leave.I must admit, George was a smart man. Who would have thought he could come up with a plan like that? Up until now, I had only thought of him as a bed warmer. Good for him, he managed to change my view.Unfortunately, I haven't seen him for two days now. I heard he got busy at the company, so I had been the one visiting Martinez's familiar mansion discreetly. I just hoped I wouldn't get caught before the D-day which was tomorrow.I found my way to the living room, I grabbed my bag from the cushion, and turned to l

Discharge papersAdrian's POV*Oh, Adrian. Why did you speak to her like that?* I questioned myself as I headed to Ruiz's office to sort out Luisa's discharge papers.I was just so irritated by the fact that she was fooled. I mean why did I have to take out my anger on her when the main culprit was in prison awaiting judgment?My thoughts ended the moment I got to Ruiz's doorstep. I knocked lightly and opened the door after getting an answer. He was having a conversation with a nurse, who left the moment our eyes met."Excuse me, Sir" She muttered as she walked past me.I simply ignored her and walked in, making myself comfortable in the visitor's seat."I want her discharged today" I declared.Ruiz pouted as he adjusted his glasses with his index finger."I'm confused. Her treatment hasn't been completed yet. She still needs to be monitored for at least two more days" He tried to explain, but my mind was made up."I can't trust that she'll be safe here while I'm away" I countered fir

Chapter 60

BootlickingElizabeth's POV"Are you ready, Liz?" My mum questioned repeatedly as she fixed up my dress.I nodded every time to satisfy her and to avoid more questioning. You know it was such a blessing to know that Elder Martinez hadn't mentioned a word about our encounter to my parents. It would have been disastrous.Well, let's just pray he doesn't say anything during the gathering. I..."Argh, mum!" I jolted out of my thoughts and screamed out in pain the moment my mum tightened my corset excessively. "What was that about?"Her face was so full of innocence as I looked at her through the mirror."Your curves have to be visible, you know that, right?" She questioned with a voice of conviction. "Your dad won't tolerate mistakes."I rolled my eyes in frustration. She was always bringing that man into our conversation."Mum, I think we're done here" I stated, trying to grab her hands behind me.She swatted my hands away. "No, we're not. We still have some more fitting to do, or do you
