บททั้งหมดของ A Deal With Pierce Verlice: บทที่ 101 - บทที่ 110

The hall was silent for a few minutes as most people murmured about the exorbitant amount which the old building was bought for. Serenity soon returned to the hall when the next item was displayed. Pierce glanced at Queenie again wondering why she wasn't taking any interest in any of the items being auctioned. Soon, they got to the last item. It was a serum which was said to be the cure to heart problems. Although the glass was just 150ml, if the recommended amount was taken, it could cure heart problems. It was a full set of six and Queenie hadn't picked interest until she looked at the projector to see one of the components in each bottle was something she really needed. "Because of the uniqueness and effectiveness of the Miracle Serum, the starting price is $100,000." The auctioneer said. Each and everyone of them seated in the room were all famous and wealthy. But money didn't always mean good health. Even though they didn't need the Miracle Serum, they could always sell it l

Next Day at the Verlice's Mansion"Are you two sure about leaving with the children? We can take good care of them until you two are more free." Langdon said worriedly, seeing Pierce and Queenie leaving. "We won't be gone for a long time, grandfather." Pierce said to Langdon but the elderly man pretended not to hear him and turned to Queenie. Upon seeing the attention was on her, Queenie sighed and glanced helplessly at the elderly man. "Mr. Verlice, I hate to refuse your offer. As Pierce said, we need them to do something for us. It's urgent but it'll also be quick and they'll be back here before you know it." Clearly seeing that they weren't giving in, Langdon leaned back but heaved a sigh of satisfaction in his heart. He had heard about the unstable marriage they had and hoped it was just a rumor. He had always wanted his grandson to end up with Queenie. So when he heard they had gotten married two years ago, he was more than thrilled to accept the news. Despite the side talks

Queenie stayed in the laboratory for three hours. When she opened the door, she was surprised to see Pierce outside her door. "How long have you been here?" She asked and the man grinned. "Like five minutes ago but when I saw you rounding up, I decided to wait for you." He replied and she nodded and walked ahead of him. Glancing at the paper in her hand, he asked inquisitively, "What did the test results say?""They're perfectly fine." She replied but suddenly stopped walking and glanced at him. Before he knew what was happening, she dragged him into a corner. "Tell me, were you one of the children my mother used for experimenting?" She asked and the man shook his head. "Just like you, they used me to threaten my grandparents when they tried to leave the research as well. The Verlice funded the research until they learnt the truth about it. Your mother couldn't stand by and watch us die, so she continued looking for a cure." He replied. Queenie narrowed her eyes at him and asked

Pierce got home that afternoon and laid his children in their rooms before leaving. He stayed for two hours and got worried. He got no text nor phone call from Queenie and he was starting to think something went wrong. He took out his phone and tried to call Jessica but the phone was switched. She did the same for Roxanne and Audrey. Without a second thought, he walked into his children's room and carried them back into the limousine. The car stopped minutes later outside the gate of his grandparents home. He took out his phone and called his grandfather. Langdon had just finished his breakfast when he received a call from his grandson. He answered it immediately and was about to ask how the children were when he heard Pierce say, "Grandfather, I'm outside the gate. Can the children stay here for a few hours?" Pierce's tone depicted that of worry, so the man agreed immediately. Although he wanted to ask what the problem was, he shook the thought off his head. Ever since he hand

Queenie sat up abruptly in a hospital ward. She looked around the room with darkened eyes but when she realized where she was, her eyes softened. She looked down on her red wrists and rubbed them gently while glancing around the room. The door was pushed open and a nurse wheeled in some medicine. Upon seeing Queenie was awake, He lowered her head slightly. "Mrs. Verlice, I'm happy you're awake." The nurse said and Queenie looked her over. She got out of bed and walked to the window. She stayed silent for a few minutes before she glanced back at the nurse. "How long have I been here?" She asked. "Three hours." The nurse replied. "Who brought me in?" She asked after a moment of silence passed between them. "Ms. Jones. She said she's a long time friend of yours, so we let her sign for you while we contacted your family." The nurse replied and Queenie's eyes widened. "Are you trying to tell me you gave her authority over my life?" She asked, walking back to the nurse with dark ey
