Javier lowered his eyes as his irises darkened. "Is it because of those people who came here to bully us? Those people....won't be able to come here again.""We have had peaceful days in the past week. But we can't let our guard down. I am not sure if something is brewing in the main mansion." Suzie felt strange that the constant visit of Kingsley's people suddenly ceased. She thought those people finally stopped after not getting the reaction they wanted. However, when her things were intercepted at the gate of Albrecht's mansion, Suzie realized that they didn't have any plan to stop.Kingsley's influence was still there and growing strong. Suzie had to take a look at the main mansion and see for herself what was happening there.She couldn't do so in the past few days because she was afraid of leaving the patient behind. But now that she had prepared everything, Suzie was confident to leave Javier. Besides, it's not like she would leave him for days."I'll come back soon. Don't wor
A/n: This chapter might contain some drugs, violence, crimes, and other sensitive content that might trigger the readers. ...... Kingsley had been in a bad mood since last week. He started to lose his people in the mansion one by one. To be accurate, the people he sent to the old cabin either got in an accident or were fired from working in the mansion. But the worst of it all was he couldn't stop them from being fired. He couldn't do anything at all since it was the head butler who had the backing of his father who fired them. Kingsley could not pardon them because each one of them commit a grave mistake. The only mercy the head butler could give them for the sake of Kingsley's face was to spare their lives. However, even though their lives were saved, they were totally blacklisted in this city and anywhere that the Albrecht family had an influence on. And since they were fired because of disgrace, no normal company or family would hire them. Their career was basically cut of
Kingsley's gaze darkened. Was this b*tch telling him that it was his own fault those people look down on him? That he was to blame that he was never enough in his father's eyes? Wasn't that all Javier's fault?"It's the half-dead's fault that everyone looked down on me. Father will always see me as incapable because of him...everyone deemed me as someone less because of him. It's not my fault but Javier's!"Suzie: "..." Why he was bringing up Javier again?Kingsley closed their distance and pulled at Suzie's collar, "Do you understand?! It's not my fault but that damn Javier!"Kingsley was a big and tall man. He did not control his strength at all and almost choked Suzie.Suzie tried to take off Kingsley's hand from her collar. "Let go!""That half-dead is good as dead. Can't you see that I am better than him? Why everyone couldn't see it? That half--dead is lying on the bed and will never wake up! Face the reality and submit to me!"Suzie smelled a familiar scent on Kingsley's breat
A security staff member ran to Kingsley's annex building in a hurry.He was one of Javier's people that were currently in disguise. He received news earlier that the eldest young madame will come to the main mansion. The eldest young master ordered him personally to secure the eldest young madame's safety.So the disguised security staff followed Suzie using the CCTV cameras. From the moment she arrived in the main mansion to her way to the west hall, the disguised security staff member keep a close eye on her.So far everything has been good. But not until he saw the second young master arrive in the west hall where Suzie was.The disguised security staff observed. When he saw Kingsley and his butler drag Suzie to Kingsley's annex building, he immediately called the other disguised people to come to Kingsley's place discreetly.They would be on standby until he made an order. Right now, they should not expose themselves unless the eldest young miss safety was jeopardized.So the disg
"Have you been waiting for me here all this time?" Suzie asked, stunned. She thought Javier would be in his room, reading like always. "I was worried. Are you okay?" Suzie held the hand that was on her shirt. It was a bit dark and she couldn't see Javier. She rummaged through the dark and touched Javier's head. Then from his head, she searched for the back of his wheelchair. "I am fine. But your hands are cold. The living room is cold at night. You should have waited for me in your room." The master bedroom was warmer since there was a heater there. Suzie pushed the wheelchair gently and reached for the lights. The lights turned on. "Have you eaten? I can warm a drink for y-" Her words were cut off when Javier abruptly tugged on her shirt harder and caused her to almost fell on him. Suzie looked at him in surprise. She was about to ask why he suddenly pulled her but halted when she saw Javier's aghast expression. "You're hurt...." Javier touched Suzie's face. Suzie's slender
However, this time Kingsley was wrong.His crimes were too big for Reyna to cover and hide it. Even though Reyna and her people tried to bribe the court officials and disrupt the investigations, the investigation team proceed smoothly.Not only did they find evidence too quickly, but all the evidence they presented in court was irrefutable."It's only been a few days but that much evidence has been found out?! What you people are doing?!"Kingsley scolded his lawyers.Right now, Kingsley was held in the prison temporarily until the charges against him were given a verdict. He thought the charges would be dropped soon and he would be able to go home after this 'misunderstanding'.But instead of closing the case as he expected, the case seemed to be extending because a lot of evidence was dug up.If this continued, he wouldn't be able to go home."Second young master, I am afraid...we couldn't cover this up. What we must focus on is shortening your sentence-""I don't want to be locked
"As you expected, Colton made a move and helped Kingsley. And he is on my tails now." Uncle Surge's voice sounded on the phone.Javier looked outside the window. He was watching the movement of the shades of the tree as he listened to Surge's report."Did you leak what I told you to Philip?" He asked after a while."I did. That man is quick to move. He bought all the shares using that woman and her son's money. He did not even let go of their properties. And then pretended to name it after Kingsley. Reyna is trusting a poisonous snake. I think that man is more ruthless than Colton."Uncle Surge was in a good mood. He hated Reyna as much as he hated Colton. To see that woman falling into a huge deep filled with sharp knives, made him happy. Although he wondered where his smart nephew learned about the grudge of the Lintons towards the Mckenzie and the Albretch, his nephew made use of them perfectly."You made me approach the Lintons and casually mention this to them. Were you not afra
"This strawberry is so big. Can we harvest this?" Javier touched the biggest strawberry from the field carefully. He did not dare to put much pressure or pick it up.Suzie crouched beside him. "Yup. This is ripe. Do you want to taste it?"Javier's eyes brightened. He nodded enthusiastically.Suzie taught him how to properly cut off the stems. Then they put the strawberry they harvested on Javier's lap.Suzie also harvested some lettuce and tomatoes. She wanted to make a salad as their snack.From the moment Suzie got 'injured', Javier familiarized himself with the house chores, especially the kitchen. Every time Suzie cooked, he would help her by washing the vegetables or preparing the plates. At first, Suzie refused Javier's help.Javier was a patient and the chores in the house were not difficult. But when she saw Javier's despondent and gloomy figure when she rejected him, her heart softened. She took her words back and finally gave him some easy tasks.Since then, Javier would he
