I could see the anger burning in his eyes, as he stared at the floor.My heart clenched for him, knowing how trumatizing it was for him. I felt sad for him, even though he had hurt my wife."What can you say about this ugly truth?" One of the media personnel asked."Will you demand justice against your father?" Another threw a question at him."Did you witness any form of abuse as a child since it happened when you were young?" Another quizzed."Mr. Richard, did you know your father killed your mother?"

Chapter 167 - Feigned Confidence. LEONARD KISH'S POV The conference hall was packed with various media outlets. Their equipment were set right before the stage, as they waited to witness the supposed big day. Every member of the shareholders were present, all dressed in different shades of suits, seated in their respective seats like innocent doves. My lips curled into a smirk when I saw Richard fidgeting in his seat. The fact that Mr. Yuka wasn't in the hall, made him restless - I could tell. The fear in his eyes confirmed it. As for Mr. Ricardo, he was quietly seated, with a barely noticeable smile on his face, but I knew, his mind was far from the present. "Is there a change of plan?" Mr. Owen asked me as he strode toward me, snapping my attention. "It's thirty minutes past the agreed time already, and Mr. Yuka is yet to arrive. He usually keeps time."

She seemed oblivious to who I was.Since I was in a hurry that morning to get to the company for what was supposed to be Richard's big day, I didn't pay attention to her. I decided not to waste any time putting her in her place."Father!" Jessica's eyes lit up immediately as soon as she saw me, and I saw hope glistening in them as she dropped into the seat opposite me.

"Please tell me you're here to get me out of this damn place."My lips spread into a small smile as I tried to comfort her, but deep within, I was thinking about how
ELSA ELKINS' POV My heart banged faster as soon as I heard Leonard's words. By the time Leonard fixed his gaze back on me, I saw the desires burning in his eyes which sent a wave of heat all over me.I nodded my head, after a few seconds. Leonard drew closer and his breath burned against my skin.He moved his thumb from my lips to my jaw, slightly guiding it up. Slowly, our noses touched, my heart banging faster now, my lips parted as I craved the feel of his lips on mine.Our lips touched, and his hand moved from my jaw to cup my face. He pulled away and stared into my eyes, his eyes darkened with desires.Almost immediately, he placed his lips on mine again, but this time around, he moved them. It was gentle and warm as he nibbled on them.Although clueless, since it was my first ever kiss, I instinctively parted my lips. My lower lip trembled and he caught them between his teeth, gently grazing on it.A moan escaped my lips, and I leaned in, which seemed to heighten his intensi

Sam had arranged for the medic to take the bullet off my arm in the abandoned home to avoid the eyes of the media.We lay in bed a little later, face-to-face, staring at each other. Deep within me, I was glad she was back home. I really wouldn't have been able to forgive myself or live with myself if anything had happened to her.Elsa didn't say anything, but I saw the many questions in her eyes, and I wondered if she would ever ask about them, whatever they were.
