Mag-log inMR RICARDO'S POV,"Boss," Bobby's voice broke into the thoughts that had kept me busy.Mr. Yuka had demanded my presence at that ungodly hour, but I couldn't defy him. I knew he wanted to wrap everything as soon as possible."What is it?" I asked as calmly as I could, but before he could respond, his official phone rang.He swiftly excused himself and answered the phone. He turned towards me as soon as he got off the phone, his eyes sparkling with excitement."They've found her location, sir." He announced.My eyes bulged as his words slammed into me, and I felt strength filling my marrow."Book a flight to Campeche immediately," I ordered, my voice heavy with determination."Okay, sir." He responded firmly, his tone dripping with excitement as he began to call the embassy.Leonard had asked me to step down and since I had found out about her location, I knew it was time I retired to Campeche as soon as possible and got myself completely free from Mr. Yuka's grip.I snapped out of t
ELSA ELKINS' POV,After staring at the calm, peaceful sea ahead of me, I checked the time and realized it was past Ten PM already.I sighed."Where should I go?" I muttered.I couldn't go back to my father's house, my mother wouldn't have it, not after Leonard had presented himself like the perfect husband during Daniella's wedding.I didn't need anyone to tell me they would tie me up and drag me back to Leonard. Daniella had relocated with her husband to Campeche. There was nowhere for me to go.The night chill enveloped me and I hugged myself. "I should have come out with a sweatshirt at least." I muttered beneath my breath.My phone began to ring again for the seventh time - Leonard clearly displayed as the caller. How dare he still try to reach me?I didn't come out with my card, I couldn't possibly lodge in a hotel.As I thought about where to pass the night Richard came to my mind.After about thirty seconds of struggling whether to call him or not, I said to myself. "He's a g
LEONARD KISH'S POVMy smile broadened as I sniffed the fresh scent of the rose bouquet I had gotten her.I hastened up the staircase, too excited to get to her, and as soon as I opened the door, I found Elsa standing in the middle of the room.My smile stretched further. "Waiting for me?" I asked, giggling as I walked towards her with open arms. But before I got to where she stood, her right hand shot towards me. "Don't come any closer!" She snapped.I halted in my tracks, my brows furrowing, and just then, I noticed her clenched jaw."Elsa" I called, still smiling at her. "What is going on?"But the words had barely left my lips when she fired: "How long have you been deceiving me?" The smile on my face froze. I tried to figure out what she meant but I couldn't put my finger on it."Elsa, why would I deceive you?" I finally asked, giggling, hoping to lighten up the atmosphere.I walked closer to her, hoping it wasn't as serious as it seemed. But as soon as I got close enough, she p
ELSA ELKINS' POV "Meet me at the garage," My phone buzzed with a text message from an unidentified sender as I readied to go home that evening. My brows furrowed, and I wondered who it was. I thought it was Leonard since I had ignored his texts, but then, I knew Leonard wouldn't stoop so low just to get my attention. I thought about ignoring it, but later succumbed to it after I realized it could be important. "Who's this?" I replied to the text, and almost immediately my phone buzzed with a response from the anonymous sender. "You'd see for yourself." I scoffed. I was in no mood for that, but something about the text kept reaching out for me and I couldn't help satisfying my curiosity. I strolled to the garage and found a lady, back turned to the entrance, wearing a face cap, but she felt familiar. "You sent me a text?" I asked wondering who she was. My brows furrowed as I recognized who she was. Jessica turned towards me and her lips curled into a condescending smirk. "I'
LEONARD KISH'S POV I couldn't stop the chuckle that broke out of my lips as I thought about my conversation with Elsa earlier that day.As I dwelled on it, I decided to buy her a gift on my way home.I was still deciding the perfect gift to surprise her with when the door slowly opened and Sam walked in. "Boss," Sam calmly called.It was the furrow deeply etched in his face that snapped me off my revelry."What is it Sam?" I asked, my brows furrowing. I was wondering what he was so concerned about."Richard just finished the meeting with the shareholders." Sam answered calmly, blankly so. Well, it was something we were already aware of, I couldn't help but wonder why he was so concerned like they had cast their votes already."All top shareholders were present, except Mr. Gerald and Mr. Owen." He continued, as though he could see I wasn't as bothered as he was. "They seemed to have reached an agreement."I nodded my head. I had expected that to happen. I knew Richard wouldn't mee
RICHARD YUKA'S POVMr. Godfrey halted in his track as soon as he heard me, then he turned to face me."What do you mean by that?" He demanded, his words heavy with a shimmering anger as he shot fiery darts at me.I chuckled loudly as soon as I heard him. I knew he was only trying to remain upright in the presence of everyone.I stood up. "Come on, Mr. Godfrey," I said, shrugging."You wouldn't want me to start talking about your commitment and dedication to the growth of the company, which you've never failed to adhere to, would you?" I asked sarcastically.Mr. Godfrey's brows furrowed upon hearing my words, from the look on his face I could see the fear building in his eyes even though he was trying his best to keep his calm demeanor.But I wouldn't let him off my hook. I had found the perfect scapegoat; he gave himself freely, so I decided to make best use of him."We both know you're not as righteous as you claimed to be, so why pretend to be one now, when we can all have what we
