While the trio was busy; two having a merry time and the other sulking out of jealousy, a majestic figure whose very presence and name called for respect and fear, had just stepped out of the hospital's VIP elevator. Behind him were 6 male bodyguards dressed in either grey or black suits and black sunglasses. Their faces were cold as ice just like their master.
His very appearance caused many to shudder involuntarily. It was like they were seeing a good-looking Asura who would in the next moment chop off their beautiful heads! Ah, they wanted to live longer. So as expected, many got out of his way because they wouldn't be able to handle his anger. After he had left, an elderly lady asked her granddaughter in a whisper. "Who's that man, Liana? So scary!"
"He's Y city's ruthless business emperor, Jack..." the granddaughter chose not to say further. She didn't want misfortune to stick to them like glue.
"Liana dear, say something. You said Jack..." the grandma refu
The majestic figure from earlier had just made his final turn along the passageway and finally stopped at the door of female ward VIP 007. A cold smile appeared on his enchanting lips and he knocked on the door like a bandit.If you're wondering where the nurse, Regina was at this moment; she's with her colleagues at another ward. She didn't wanna meet this Asura who had come looking for trouble. She still wanted her nice head, ah! She also trusted Evelyn would handle the matter as she had known her for quite some time.Inside the ward.Vanessa, Lisa and Evelyn were alarmed."Who could be outside knocking like this? Has he no manners?" Evelyn spoke telepathically to Vanessa unhappily. If she weren't on a hospital bed, she'd have beaten the bastard out there whoever he is."I think it must be her relative. Most likely her dad" Vanessa replied telepathically with a sigh. She had forgotten something important all this while- that this kid had a father
"..." the bodyguards wanted to shake their heads in pity but didn't dare to. One of them held Lisa gently by the hand and followed behind the others."Mummy, save me. Mummy..." Lisa wailed as they took her away but Vanessa pretended not to hear or see anything. She knew that if she didn't, she might actually fight over her custody.Evelyn got down the bed and made for the door. She closed it after making sure that they had left."So you're happy that Lisa is gone?" Vanessa telepathed to Evelyn, almost causing her to trip."Could you be a little more gentle? I almost died just now" Evelyn complained while pretending to wipe off invisible tears."Stop it! Only a beggar or blind man would believe you" Vanessa spoke coldly before hiding under her blanket."..." Evelyn was tongue-tied."Choosing to ignore me now, eh? Probably a little tickle would do the job" Evelyn inched closer to Vanessa with a wicked grin plastered on her red lips, her
Mr Peter Jones (Nelson Woodley's ) secretary, adjusted his glasses for the millionth time (the author's exaggerating hehe (-_-) ). He continued waiting for his boss at Theo's cafe. When he called his boss some minutes ago, he detected from Nelson's tone that he wasn't happy. He internally lit a candle for whoever pissed his boss; little did he know that it was someone Nelson himself was helpless against.Suddenly, a car parked in front of the bar at a breakneck speed. Peter almost swore at the driver only to cover his mouth in shock-guilt."Sorry boss," he muttered inaudibly. Of course, how could he forget? His boss was a big demon on the highways; how many curses he had received from other road users! (pedestrians, cyclists, motorists to name a few)Peter sighed and rose from his seat; he made for his boss. Outside the cafe, Peter bowed slightly to his boss but he just went into the cafe and ordered for a cup of coffee.Nelson then sat at the extreme; Pe
"Hahaha" she gave a sheepish laugh."Stop it" Evelyn thundered causing Regina to fall to the ground in shock. She was dead meat but what was she to do earlier? Either way she'd be in danger; if she stayed, she'd almost die from suffocation coz that guy and his bodyguards were not paper tigers; and if she ran away and came back just like she'd done now, she'd have to face the ladies wrath. Life is so unfair!"You coward! You left us here to face that animal on two legs and his rat-faced minions. Now you have the effrontery to return. Is this how you treat patients? I'll make sure you are fired" Evelyn's words made Vanessa shake her head.Evelyn fiery temper remained the same or perhaps maybe it has worsened since they last met. Sigh!"Ma'am, I didn't want to run away. I was close by. I was... just afraid that I would get in his way and somehow increase his anger" Regina tried to explain but Evelyn scoffed."Liar,who would believe you? Do you think I
At 'Huzek meals' restaurant, two streets away from the boxing center, sat two people at the extreme of the restaurant. If you look closer, you'd discover something. What is it? Yeah it's those two from the boxing ring (stage): Angel and the unknown man but right now no one would recognize them.Angel has taken off her mask, and she turns out to be Liana but the man is sporting a cap and black sunglasses. Now that she took a better view of him, she found him to be hot and taller than her late grandpa. Her grandma's words " Bring a man home by Friday next week" kept resounding in her ears. She nodded her head and smiled.She daydreamed.~~~~~~~~ (^_^)~~~~~~~~~"Anything amusing you my princess?" he asked as he gorged on the rice and salad. He had two big chickens at the side of the big plate and a big can of chilled coke by his side."Oh, nothing much. I just recalled a childhood memory." Liana lied and continued eating."So, where would you l
The elderly lady, do you still recall her? If you don't, let me give you a little help. She's the fish monger whose wares were ruined by Lisa's dad Rolls-Royce and afterwards, Nelson Woodley (who happens to be greatly annoyed due to the fight between him and Jack (Lisa's father) and the money he has to compensate him with) teaches her a cruel lesson in not being too greedy. The chapter ended with a strange man in black secretly following her as she headed back to get her basin and return home sadly.So I guess I've refreshed your memory a little. So let's not waste time and head over to today's meal portion. (^_^)**********************************Rayford's street in the slum.The elderly lady finally reached home sighing heavily repeatedly. Today was like practically the worst day of her life. She kept replaying what happened over and over again in her head and couldn't help but also cuss for the millionth time. How could youngsters these days be
Hearing her authenticate the truth, the youth's eyes twinkled and he straight away, hugged her tight and kissed her right cheek three times stunning her so much her mouth was agape and the buckets and hankies fell from her hand. She was afraid to blink. What was happening? Why was he hugging her? Was it to make her feel fake warmth before sending her off to the netherworld? And did he just kiss her right cheek 3 times? What for?"I'm sorry, really sorry" he started to sob shocking her even more."Why... why are you crying?" she managed to ask. A million things were going through her head; she didn't know what to think."I'm so sorry" he muttered and continued to cry, wetting her back with his warm tears. Yeah, despite the fact that he looked evil but his hug and tears were warm. She felt his heart beating quickly.Was she his first victim to die? Was he feeling guilty about what he was about to do or was he forced?"I'm so sorry" he kept on apologi
Theo's cafe.Peter Jones (Nelson Woodley's secretary) watched as his boss drove his Maybach Excelero away at breakneck speed just like he usually does. He shook his head and boarded a taxi home. Working at GVS enterprises itself is not easy say less of being the Ceo's personal secretary. Before him, many other secretaries who worked for him never lasted more than a month. But he was the only one who managed to last 6 months. He broke a record alright! He then decided to quit and find a less terrifying job but his boss refused to accept his resignation later and tore it to pieces. That very day, his boss transferred five thousand dollars into his account and told him to report to work the next day without fail. So that's how he continued to work for his boss till now and he still receives the same amount- five thousand dollars every month but depending on his behavior, it could be a bit lesser. Over all, the pay was good. How many were jealous of him! How many wished to be in hi
