Mulan's POV How did he find out I was looking for ways to give him his feet back? — I pondered, my gaze still on the door. Something about him was off. His charisma and attitude wasn't that of an average person. “It seems like he was born with a silver spoon, I'm sure of it." I mumbled, my gaze still fixated on the door. Even after retiring to my room which was door away, I just couldn't get my mind off him. Lowering myself on the edge of my bed, I had my hands clasped together, staring into space. “Kaiser Walker.” I murmured.Suddenly, it clicked and at once, I pulled my phone out of my purse and then typed in his name on the search engine. “Ugh! What was I thinking?" I mumbled, staring at the screen prompt. There was no result concerning his name but yet, I felt he was born with a silver spoon and also he was a man of influence. “It still doesn't make sense." I ratted out.Now pacing about my room with my hands crossed on my chest, I said, “If indeed he was born with a si

Mulan's POV Though Kaiser didn't say a word after catching me in the act, I was duly embarrassed. Each time I recalled the look he sent my way, my stomach would churn in protest as I facepalmed myself for being nosy. Since it was the weekend, I decided to get some groceries and a few things from the mall and also get Kaiser's medication. After paying for my purchased items, I began to head towards the exit door only for someone to block my path.At first I thought it was a mistake but when he kept making it impossible for me to walk through, I raised my head only to lock eyes with Tristan. “I thought I wasn't going to see you again, but here you are." He spoke in his carefree manner, trying to touch me but I veered backward, not after slapping his hand off my face.With a deep frown, I scowled, “What do you want?"“Come on Mulan, I know you are mad at me." He paused, pushing his hands into his pockets. After looking around for a while, he leaned in and with his hot breath fannin

Cross’ POVGlaring at my ringing phone, I grasped the arm of my wheelchair in anger and also to restrict myself from doing something I would regret. For the past hour, my mother has been trying to reach me non stop. It has been two weeks now since I promised to meet up with her by the weekend, yet I haven't fulfilled my part of the bargain, not like I intended to in the first place. When my phone wouldn't stop ringing, I grabbed it and was about to toss it under my pillow when her voice came through. “Ugh!" I sighed in frustration. In my rage, I had mistakenly received her call.“Cross, are you alright?" She asked, I could imagine her leaning over the table wherever she was at the moment with a worried look stamped on her face. “You're a pain in the ass." I said through my teeth. “I know right?" She chuckled like it was even funny. After a brief silence, she said, “About our date, when am I going to see you? Your father had been eager ever since I told him that you agreed to c

Reader’s POV From the first day Mulan stepped her feet into NexaCorp as an assistant to the chairman who was almost non-existent, Jax was curious. Several times, he has tried getting Cross to explain his relationship with her but he always hung up before he could complete his questioning. He never replied to his personal emails too but still Jax wouldn't give up. His suspicion skyrocketed when he discovered that Mulan was searching actively for an ostectomy procedure. Fully aware that she wasn't going to tell him whom she was doing it for, he decided to do a background check on her, giving rise to a new discovery that he held onto. The only reason why he was acting nice to her was so he could get close to her and then through her, he would be able to bring down her family for what they did to the Voss ten years ago. As for the ostectomy procedure, he decided to find out exactly who needed it and this prompted him into attempting to drive her home. The opportunity came when he

Mulan's POV Thanks to the anonymous benefactor I was yet to locate, my mother was back on her feet and ready to be discharged. With her consent, I got her a flight ticket so she would join my aunt living overseas with her family. Foremost, I didn't want her to have even the slightest idea on what I had gotten myself into for her sake and also, I did it to protect her from my father. If he finds out that she was alive and well, he wouldn't hesitate to find her so he would make her give up her shares. "Make sure you take your drugs, okay.” I said, casting mother a brief glance. Her face was neutral when in the real sense, she was battling with different emotions.It took a while to convince her to go without me as she kept highlighting what father was capable of doing.“Don't worry about me mother, I will be fine." I said, a little chuckle erupting from my lips. “If it becomes tough here…” "Don't hesitate to join me over there." She said, eliciting a vigorous nod from me. Soon,

Reader's POV Pacing about her office with her hands resting on her waist, Freya had an unsettled look on her face. At intervals, she would rush to her computer but after scrolling and not finding what she was searching for, she would resume pacing about. “The chairman demands to see you." Tessy, her secretary said, breaking into her line of thoughts. Without hesitation, she hurriedly made her way out of her office and into the elevator with her phone placed against her ear. “Hey, have you found out the identity of the shareholder?” "Not yet.” The person on the other end replied, eliciting a scream of frustration from Freya. It was at this moment that the elevator door slid open and on seeing her reaction, the staff who were waiting to use the elevator quickly scurried off. Still fuming, she stormed out, "How much time do you need to find the shareholder?” She snapped, her hand stuck in her hair. "I can't give you a…" Too angry to listen to what he had to say

Mulan's POV During lunch break as usual, I sat behind my computer searching for a temporary alternative for Kaiser's surgery. My focus was heightened until a phone call interrupted.Thinking it was Jax, I reached out of my phone only to see my father's number blaring on my screen. “Jax was right." I mumbled, tossing my phone inside the drawer.The next few minutes saw me struggling to concentrate as my phone wouldn't stop buzzing.In annoyance, I received his call. “Hey daughter, it's been a while." He said in a sing-song voice causing me to roll my eyes in anger.Grasping the table with my free hand, I snapped, "What do you want?” "I’m busy, be snappy about it.” I added, anger boiling through my veins. "What about dinner tonight?” He laughed. "I’m not hungry.” "It's just past noon, when it's time for dinner, you will be hungry.” When I didn't say a word of response to him, he said, "We will be waiting for you.” At the end of the call, I fell back on my chair, my chest risin

Mulan's POVThe whole show down left me giddy with excitement that I couldn't hold myself back. With the way they had acted back there, if I had gone on my own, I would be forced to hand over the shares to them. Thanks to Kaiser's quick thinking then Percy’s presence else, everything would have backfired and I would be at the receiving end. All what Percy said were a few words but they were potent. Now I see why a lot of people hire B&C Law Group when it comes to corporate cases. “Thank you so much." I said, placing my hand together in appreciation. “I didn't do it for you; it's for Kaiser." His words made me roll my eyes as this was exactly the same thing Jax had said at the office just this morning. Anyway, I take their assistance as one of the benefits one gets from being associated with Kaiser.“Can you run a company?" Percy asked out of the blue, causing me to snap my head in his direction.My response to this was negative.Not only that, it reminded me of my father's word

Reader's POVIt had been two days since Mulan met with her family. Since then, they had been searching for alternative ways on how to get more shares before they lost hold of the company but all roads were blocked. Drumming her fingers against the table, Freya's mom said, “I wish we could just kill her and take over the shares." At that instant, Ethan swirled in her direction. “Don't even think about that." He hushed, his expression mournful while Freya on the other hand sulked. She had tried talking to some shareholders in giving up their shares but they were adamant, leaving them frustrated and angry. “The lawyer that came with her, isn't he Percy Rico from B&C Law Group?" Freya mouthed, twirling her hair around her fingers. “Yes, why?" Her parents asked in unison. They both had an expectant look on their faces as they stared back at her. Shrugging, she said, “I should go talk to him in person, who knows he will give out some information and then…” She filtered off. "I nee

Mulan's POV Seated across from Freya in the restaurant, I had my straw in my mouth, taking sips at intervals from the juice which I held. Freya on the other hand was seething with anger. She probably had a lot of things to say to me; well, I had all the time in the world today to listen to her rant. When Kaiser informed me about the tip they sent to my family, I was disturbed at first. I wanted to deal with them in secret but after a careful thought, I felt it wasn't a bad idea after all. “Do you think you will be able to make progress?" She rolled her eyes in anger. Pressing her fingers down on the table, she said, “One of the people you trusted was the one who sold you out, what makes you think you will be able to take us down?" She spoke through her teeth. “I thought you called me here to plead with me." I mouthed with a shrug. “But it seems you came here to challenge me." Rolling her eyes, she tossed her head backwards as a low laughter rippled from her throat. “Oh please
