A black shiny limousine stopped right in front of the Pub. The chauffeur came out of the limo and opened the back seat door.

A pair of black shiny shoes could be seen stepping out of the car and then out of it, came a tall silhouette figure, he's putting on a black shade.

"You can leave. When I'm done, you'll get informed" His hoarsely voice sounded.

As he walked into the pub, all eyes fixed on him.

His curly short hair, chocolate brown eyes, pointed nose, pale skin, red lip, tall and strong, a face that held roughness of a man, walk that displayed arrogance of wealth. Broad shoulders tampered in perfectly built abs, the black suit is nothing but a fabric that appeared as a pompous invitation for a magnificent show.

His name is Davis Del Rio.

His dressing code wasn't for a pub and one might think he came here mistakingly. He walked to the counter top and ordered for a bear. He squeezed his way past the people dancing and went to a corner.

His eyes roaming round the place as he drank from his bottle of bear.

And then she saw her.

She's illegally pretty that one

would think she fell from the sky. Her moon shadow-black hair, enticing constellation-blue eyes, Her imp-thin body and her puffy heart shaped lips were enough to make one think she's an angel.

The angel had her eyes closed and was leaning on the table. She was with a tipsy but pretty look. When the rotating spotlight shone on her from time to time, she looked attractive that his face was just like the perfect side profile of a comic books.

His eyes glowed and after a glimpse, he stood up then held the bottle of red wine.

He didn't take his eyes off her as he walked up to her.

"I bet that you need a ride to heaven" he taunted when he got to her. Samantha slowly raised her head up.

She was momentarily stunned. She admire his clean, somber eye brows and exquisite nose bridge. She groaned and averted her eyes from him.

How rude of his approach!

"What about I'll give you a ride to hell, you motherfucker!" She retorted.

Then, a smile slowly crept on his face.

He tossed her a bottle of wine. She rolled her eyes and ignored him.

"Don't drink too much. You'll feel uncomfortable if you do" he said.

Samantha laughed sparingly. He tossed her a bottle of wine a moment ago and now, he's advising her not to drink too much.

How insane!

"Get lost. You're such an eyesore here" she yelled. The music was loud enough so no one could hear.

"Are you done?. Lemme tell you my story. My girlfriend ditched me a month to our wedding"

He said.

She gaped.

"What sort of a shitty plot twist is this" she thought.

She was in a state of disbelief. She trembled and glanced.

"Here, have it" he offered her a bottle of his red wine. She took it and clutched the wine bottle.

"Hah.

She forced a smile.

"What's your story?" He asked.

"I'm getting married to someone i barely know. More like a business......

Towards the end of her sentence, she began to choke. Holding the bottle, she took a few gulps of wine and tasted her tears in her mouth as well.

At that moment, she started feeling a little dizzy.

"Pathetic story i guessed" he muttered, watching her slowly.

She remained uncannily quiet for a moment before she burst out laughing. She stopped and face him.

The whole world paused at a second as they both stared at each other.

"I got to go" She broke the silence. She grimaced again and thanked him for engaging her in a brief conversation. A little burden was lifted away.

She looked around and swaggered to leave. Her vision became blurry and before she knew it, she fainted.

Then, she told them the idea. This idea encouraged these people actively to return the money. Jace watched her and could not help applauding Samantha in his heart. She handled the mess. She got back about 30 million dollars. Samantha looked at them casually, but others looked at her carefully. Most of them paid back the money according to the amount listed by Richard. But…..Even brothers could not know everything about each other. How could Richard know everyone’s matter in details?Samantha kept silent for a while. She raised her eyes and scanned the crowd. “Everyone, are you sure it is all the embezzled money?”In the crowd, some felt guilty. Those who did not lie responded loudly. Samantha played with the pen in her hand. “Everyone, you should try your best to recall it. Otherwise, it is

    The truth had surface but Samantha didn’t even give Richard a chance to surrender himself. As Richard left the office, he was handcuffed by the police officers who came to arrest him. “Samantha, you are such a ruthless woman. You will be dead as a doornail!” Richard was still shouting and cursing while he was pushed into the car. Jace frowned, subconsciously looking at Samantha. The cursed made Samantha looked cold. Jace raised his eyebrows slightly. “When did you arrange these things? You didn’t tell me anything.”“We’re business Patners for this project Mr. Jace. You don’t expect me to fold my hands and do nothing. We’re both in charge of it. Naturally, I have to deal with it whether being experienced in the field or not” Samantha said calmly. “You didn’t give him the chance to surrender himself! You’re such a ruthless woman. I’ve watched you from miles away and perhaps thought the rumors about you were false but Miss George, today, I realize you are so ruthless as claim.” Jace c

    Chapter TenSamantha and Jace watched, waiting to hear their requests. “We understand that your project has already achieved this level, and relocation is a waste of money. How about 100 million dollars, then we will move the grave,” said the leading man while holding out a finger.“100 million dollars?” Jace was shocked. The man folded his arms as if they had already been gracious, saying, “If you make a relocation, you’ll lose more than a 100 million dollars. We have so many people in the village, and we will all be affected by the relocation of our ancestors’ graves. Losing money is a trivial matter. Once we get sick, this money will be essential to buy back our life!“Exactly! 100 million dollars is not much at all!”“We’re already being merciful. We gambled the lives of the whole village to help you save from losing more than on billion dollars. Don’t you be ignorant not knowing what’s good for yourself!”The scene went into an uproar. Yet, Samantha remained calm and let the clam

    The car came to an halt right in front of Samantha’s Mansion. The atmosphere seems to be tensed as neither Sabastine nor Samantha would say a word to each other. “Sam….” He broke the silent. “You lied.. About the recommendations and online findings..” She uttered. “I…I…” he stuttered and Samantha interrupted as well. “You know I’m not even supposed to be mad. I guessed I expected more from you and you didn’t fail to disappoint” She said. Sabastine sighed. He’d fail her.“I’m so sorry Sam. I was going to tell you after the dinner. I only wanted you to rate the amazing meal without taking sides or wanting to pleased me knowing it’s mine. I only needed a sincere recommendation from you. I’m sorry that I lied”Samantha sighed. She never expected to take this far. Yes she was disappointed but on a second look, it wasn’t Sabastine that offended her tonight but Claire. “Forget it. It doesn’t matter. I’ve made my promises to you and I think we should keep our distance from now on”Sabast

    “Ha. Ha..haaa”Claire suddenly laughed as she looked from the security man to Bianca. She looked back to Samantha and pointed a finger at her. “How can you say this scheme of a woman here is a guest to the manager!” She blurted and added quickly. “How ridiculous!”Samantha couldn’t help but roll her eyes. She was getting irritated already. “And…And I’m the manager wife. Are you saying my husband brought this woman here?” She asked and the security man furrowed his brows. He knew his boss was single. Not even in a relationship nor alone married. “I don’t know what you’re spouting miss. I’ll suggest you’ve your meal peacefully and leave instead of causing choas here” he said. “Claire, what’s happening?. I thought your husband owns this place?” Bianca muttered out. Oh no!Claire thought. She can’t possibly loose face in front of Bianca!“Of course! Davis owns here”She replied and pointing at the security man, she continued. “This man here seems new. He possibly don’t know my husband

    “Welcome back Miss Samantha…” The maid greeted as Samantha entered her Villa. “Thank you. Where’s Axle?” She asked while removing her heels. “Sleeping ma’am “The maid responded. “She had dinner?”“Little Miss insisted on waiting for you but I made her eat a little ma’am” She said. “Alright. Thank you” Samantha muttered and headed straight to Axle room. Gina had informed her earlier that she will be going on a date. Samantha opened the door slowly to avoid making any sound. Axle was fast asleep with a book above her head. She dropped her bag beside the bed and proceeded to join Axle on the bed. Little Axle sighed as if sensing her mother’s present. Samantha covered them both with a duvet and wrapped her arm around Axle. She didn’t want to think about anything. Not Davis. Not Claire. She was just gonna pretend she never met with any of them tonight. “I won’t let them hurt you. Momma promise” she whispered as she peck Axle on her cheek.
