CHAPTER 24: COURTROOM "Can I know who Crystal's dad is?" Erica finally asked and Leilani dropped the spatula in her hand slowly. She stood for a while sighing before she turned to face Erica who had an inquisitive and anxious look on.Leilani's phone started ringing as soon she was about to say something.She nodded at Erica, cleaning her hands on the apron as she answered the call." Hello." She said but instead of a reply, a chuckle, a good laugh sounded from the other side. A scornful chuckle! Erica looked at her, the inquisitive look on her small, round face increased as she stared at Leilani and the phone in her hands." Can you help me with that?" Leilani gestured at the cabbage lying on the cabinet." Sure." Erica nodded, walking towards the cabinet, holding the knife clumsily." You know what? Just call Umbrie. You might mistakenly get yourself stabbed with the way you're holding the knife." Leilani suggested, seeing the way she held the knife." I won't. I'll do it myself
CHAPTER 25: POISON? Nevertheless, Leilani collected the pen from his stretched hand and signed before collecting the box from him." Thanks." She said and the deliveryman turned and left without saying a word.Immediately, she jammed the door shut as she hurried into the kitchen, tearing the wrapped box open hastily.Her eyes widened as she saw....." Ring! Ring!" The doorbell chimed again." Coming." She heard Erica's blaring loud voice and her pounding footsteps as she ran to open the door.Without taking another look at what was inside the box, she carefully opened a cabinet and hid it at the very end of the cabinet before using a jar to cover it.Sighing, she murmured. " Act normal. Act normal!" Leilani continued murmuring to herself, she let out a tiny scream seeing a pair of shiny blue eyes gazing at her. She hissed, calming her beating heart. " Geez! Crystal." She called. " What were you doing there? I was already wondering when we bought a cat." Leilani said walking outside
CHAPTER 26: KILL HER. " Come in." Xander said lowly already perceiving Tyron scent from the outside." My Lord, you have a mail." Tyron said as he entered but the Gamma just waved his hand and the head guard nodded, placing the letter carefully on the large desk." And..." Tyron said, treading carefully. " He asked to see you." Tyron said. " The Alpha of Bluemoon Pack." He added.Xander's head shot up as he glared at Tyron." What rubbish are you sprouting out? Get out of here, don't make me more madder than I am now." Xander hollered, stamping his palm on the table loudly.Surely, the conceited Alpha outside the huge door would have surely had the Gamma's yell.Tyron bowed as he flew out of the room, hearing struggles. As he came outside, he saw a guard who had on a terror filled face as he tried to stop Wymond from entering the office of the Gamma." You wouldn't live to regret what I'd do to you if you don't leave my presence right now." Wymond threatened making the guard more he
CHAPTER 27: HIM! IT'S HIM! KING'S ENTERPRISES** " Come in." Cole's tired voice said and his secretary walked in, bowing professionally while he just waited for what she wanted to say." Go on, I'm sure you can see how busy I am." He said and she nodded and turned her gaze to the door before facing Cole again." Mr Malcom's outside." She bowed while Cole narrowed his eyes as he scratched the little stubble on his chin." What the hell did he say he wants?" Cole asked." He didn't say anything sir." She said as she stood upright, clearing her throat. " Get your damn ass up and tell that bastard I'm here." She imitated what Malcom said." Alright, just..let him in." Cole sighed." Sir?" She asked." You're not deaf, are you? I said you should let him in, stop behaving so sluggish." Cole said." I'm sorry sir." She bowed and with a quick nod, she left the room.Minutes later, Malcom banged the door open and entered with two bodyguards proudly like he owned the entire world." You don't
CHAPTER 28: WHAT'S SHE BLURTING ABOUT?» FUTURE STARS SCHOOLS « " What's wrong Crystal?" Leilani asked seeing her little girl's stiffed face." It's him! It's him, Mommy!" Crystal chanted still gazing at the direction the car went." What him? Who're you talking about?" Leilani asked her daughter who had her eyes wide opened with fear." Mum." Crystal turned her gaze to her mother as she held Leilani's wrist firmly. " You aren't leaving me right?" The girl asked." What are you talking about, baby? Why would I leave you?" Leilani asked confusingly but the girl just sighed murmuring a silent " Thank goodness"." Hey Crystal!" Leilani and Crystal both turned simultaneously to look who called.Leilani watched her daughter quietly and disapprovingly seeing the way Crystal looked at Eugenia with a hard frown on her little face." Say hi." Leilani nudged her daughter feeling embarrassed, even the lady who held Eugenia had a surprise look on as she saw the way the blue eyed girl stared at
CHAPTER 29: LEAVING? TO WHERE?»» KING'S ENTERPRISES, NEW YORK «« Typing furiously on the keyboard, the petite secretary's attention was fully concentrated on what she was doing and unaware of everything around her.A man who looked quite aged but the way he dressed perfunctorily wouldn't make anyone call him aged but instead a middle aged man.The man glanced at the secretary with a tight face as he continued tapping on the table lightly to inform the serious secretary of his presence but all to no avail. A worker who was accidentally passing the scene let out a loud gasp as her eyes saw the man and the unaware secretary. Murmuring a silent curse, the staff hurriedly walked briskly to the secretary giving her a tight slap on her back and the secretary let out a loud yell in pain as she glared at the staff who in turn glared back at her, infact more heatedly. " Why did you hit me like that?" The annoyed secretary asked still not obvious of what's happening." Oh, you call that
CHAPTER 30: RH null. " Fucking bastard, you finally picked your phone after so many decades? Why weren't you picking my calls, you castrated bastard?!" Xander immediately fired as soon as his call connected with that of Cole's." Calm down." Cole sighed already expecting the Gamma's outburst." Don't tell me to fucking calm down." Xander snapped. " You know what I've been passing through? You know what I've been through? You couldn't even call to ask about the pack, you simply left everything to me, lazy whore." Xander fired different questions and curses at Cole who kept stroking and massaging his forehead as he waited for Xander to at least calm down." Listen Xan baby, I...." Before he could even say whatever he wanted to say, the Gamma let out a loud scream which sounded girlish to Cole's amusement." Don't forward your whoring self towards me, do you understand?" Xander queried." That's if you keep silent and let me talk, I really need to say something important and I mean it w
CHAPTER 31: DISAGREEMENT When the Gamma didn't reply, Wymond continued, brushing Tyron aside as he picked a file from the table but Xander immediately snatched it from him with a hard face." I came here to check on your mental state but it seems you're still as slow and stupid as I thought." Wymond said, that his signature sinister smile was still playing on his lips." You don't know what's going on, do you?" He added. Wymond's subconsciously moved a step back when Xander took a step forward." You're still claiming this Alpha title? Tune it down, you know what I can do." Xander whispered in Wymond's ear as they stood shoulder to shoulder to each other.A different expression appeared on the conceited Alpha's face but it disappeared as soon as it came and he let out a loud, ugly laugh." What can you do?" He scoffed, chewing something which Xander didn't want to know." Your brother's behind you, looking at you." Xander said flatly and as if something very scary and evil was behi
