RICHARD YUKA'S POV,

Everyone was already seated by the time I entered the boardroom with James. A thick silence hung in the air, as every gaze except Leonard's lingered on me, his expression - a mask of indifference.

"I'm so sorry I'm late," I said, swiftly apologizing as I settled into my armchair. I knew I had to project good behavior in front of the shareholders, to win their support and confidence.

Mr. Gerald - the fourth largest shareholder let out a grunt, his eyes rolling in disgust, his

  • My Monstrous Husband.   Chapter 129 - Beginning To Fall In Love.

    ELSA ELKINS' POV,"That was yesterday when we went out for lunch and then he bought all my favourite meals instead." My words tumbled out in a rush.But as soon as the words left my lips, her jaw dropped in surprise, and her eyes popped so wide that they almost fell off their sockets.She nodded fervently, urging me to continue, causing me to chuck again."Well, I was just surprised he knew about my favourite meal and so I asked him about it, and then he said something like, 'shouldn't I know about my wife if I'm going to spend forever with her?' So you see, there's nothing to be excited about."But Daniella seemed like she had just heard great news. She jammed her hands together in excitement, dancing to an inaudible music.There we go again, another I told you so moment.I sighed and rolled my eyes as she danced to her inaudible sound."Why are you so excited about it?" I asked wondering why she was happy that Leonard, the monster had allegedly fallen in love with me.But the words

  • My Monstrous Husband.   Chapter 128 - The Look In His Eyes.

    ELSA ELKINS' POV,I felt like I had just heard a joke. I never expected to hear such a thing from Daniella."Easy my lady." She said, rushing to my side.She soothed my back, but I was more amused than I was affected by the drink that had seared my throat.From the look on her face, it was clear that she meant those words, which further amused me."What did you just say?" I asked, chuckling as I dropped the glass on the side stool. "Do you mean Leonard? That Monster?""I'm serious, my lady." She affirmed, her words dripping with certainty. "From what has happened these past days and how he's treated you so lovingly, I really think he does love you."I scoffed and shook my head in disbelief, still amused by her words.As I thought about it, I couldn't blame her, since she wasn't the one living with Leonard. I understood she was swayed by Leonard's seemingly kindness which I had experienced before, so I knew too well to let myself be fooled by it.As I pondered my thoughts, Daniella's w

  • My Monstrous Husband.   Chapter 127 - He Likes You.

    ELSA ELKINS' POV,Daniella squealed in excitement and circled the car, then rushed back to where I stood."Congratulations my lady, I'm so happy for you." She beamed, smiling from one ear to the other."Thank you, Daniella." I replied warmly. After a few more seconds, she hooked her hand around my elbow and led me towards the door.But before we got in, I remembered I wasn't alone. "Hold on, Daniella." I said and turned towards Manuel who was still seated in the car. He wound down the window before I got there."Manuel, maybe you should go back for a while, I'd call you when I'm ready to leave." I said calmly."That's not a problem ma'am." He replied, shaking his head. "Mr. Leonard had specifically instructed me to wait until whenever you're ready to return."My jaw dropped as soon as I heard that. Leonard instructed him to do so?"But, I've planned on staying for a very long time." I persuaded calmly."No problem ma'am. That's why I'm here." Manuel said as soon as the words left my

  • My Monstrous Husband.   Chapter 126 - Congratulations Ma'am!

    ELSA ELKINS' POV,As soon as Leonard left for work that morning, I got ready to go pay Daniella a surprise visit. As I descended the staircase, Butler Joe appeared right in front of me, which was totally expected. I smiled, since I was only told the previous day that I could go wherever I wanted, I wasn't surprised Butler Joe wasn't aware."Good morning, Butler Joe," I greeted with a broad smile on my face, even as I steered myself for gis interrogations."Good morning Ma'am Elsa," He responded warmly. "Are you ready to go out?" The excitement in his voice made my brows furrowed, I was surprised he didn't intend to restrict me."How did..." I began to ask but stopped immediately as the thought of Leonard crossed my mind. He was the unpredictable Leonard afterall, and he had never stopped amazing me with loads of surprises since Daniella's wedding.The thought of it filled my heart with warmth, and my smile broadened."Yes, Butler Joe." I answered, my voice oozing the peace and c

    MR YUKA'S POV"What would you have me do, Boss?" Miguel asked, his voice firm and unwavering."Get ready to depart to Choco with Anna," I replied firmly. "Book the next available flight.""But father, we aren't sure of anything yet!" Richard protested."That's too dangerous!" I quickly answered. "We can't wait to be certain!"Although, I wasn't certain about anything yet, I knew it was better to avoid any possibilities."I'm afraid that won't be possible for a while, Boss."Miguel answered, pulling my gaze towards him."What do you mean by that?" I asked, my brows furrowing."The empire is in a mess, Boss. The authorities are on the lookout for Dealers. I was just informed Mr. Andrea has been arrested." Miguel answered calmly.My eyes bulged as soon as I heard him and my jaw dropped as I thought about the loss it would incur me. Somewhere deep within me, I felt a little scared, if Andrea could be arrested, I knew we had to be more careful."That was the second thing I wanted to inform

    MR YUKA LEE'S POV,"There are a few whose commitments to the Kish remain unwavering, Richard." Mr. Ricardo managed to find his voice.Despite the calmness in his face, the fear in his voice was unmistakable.He turned towards me as if he wanted to know what I thought, but if only he knew I was about to say the same thing before Richard stepped in.Deep within me, I was glad Richard had decided to step in, and with the determination I saw in his eyes, I was certain I had nothing to worry about."You mean like Mr. Gerald and Mr. Owen?" I asked, pretending to be interested."Of course l, Mr. Yuka," Mr. Ricardo as soon as he heard me. "Mr. Gerald had shown his undivided support towards the Kish family. It'd be hard to win him over.""As for Mr. Owen, you and I know he takes no part in favouritism. His commitment to remaining steadfast and true to hard work remains unwavering." His words tumbled out in a rush."I see!" I stated, nodding my head. I pulled my gaze away from him waiting for R
