11: Pay or leave
“Miss Regina? Please come this way, the CEO has been expecting you.” the receptionist quickly got up to direct them.Lenora treated Preston like air, or should he say, a complete Personal Assistant, as they were led into the elevator that would take them to the top floor. Preston tried to catch her eye a lot of the time, but it seemed like she was deliberately dodging it.Preston felt wronged!No one has ever treated him like that, he was slowly beginning to lose himself to anger but he knew his anger wouldn't go well, so he took long breaths to calm himself down.The receptionist stopped once she arrived at the floor, “Miss Clara will take it from here now.” she bowed and left. Preston and Lenora stepped out of the elevator where a lady in her thirties strutted forward to greet them. “Hello Miss Regina, Mr Hayes will see you now.”At this point, Rhian was elegantly sipping on his black coffee while gazing at the document when a knock sounded.“Come in!”He muttered in a cool voice wi

12: Pissed Wife
“Regina, I agree with your terms! I'll pay 500 million, can you please return?” Rhian's anxious voice rang out through the phone. The issues in his company were manageable at first since he had technicians working on them. However, the moment, Regina left, another issue occurred. The company was hacked causing some information to leak. That will cost him billions of dollars if the wrong hands get hold of it!“Mr Rhian. I'm afraid, that's not possible anymore.”Preston's eyebrow raised slightly. Even Rhian paused, then, “I—” what the hell did she mean it's not possible anymore?? Every single minute is important! “Triple the money Mr Hayes and then we'd talk about your company's issues.” For a moment, no one talked. Preston gaped at his wife like she has grown two heads. While Rhian on the other side of the phone felt his lips twitch several times as his hold on the phone tightened.“You!”“What? You can't?” she sighed dramatically, “It's such a shame then, but Fine. Have a nice day

13: Angel
Lenora wasn't simply staring at him. She was glaring! If looks could kill, he would have found himself in Sambisa forest experiencing death a thousand times. “We were being followed.” he did not regret kissing her though. His desire to savour her in every manner was fueled by how soft her lips were. To make her his... His eyes gleamed with a possessive glint.Lenora's anger spiked when she saw him looking at her lips heatedly again. She knows what he's thinking. Before he could notice the blush spreading across her face, she scowled at him one last time with humph, shoved him, and sped out of the car while murmuring "Perv" under her breath.As it was one of the best parks in town, it was crowded with families, some of them enjoying picnics and conversing merrily. Lenora quickened her stride in an effort to escape both Preston and the Park. It may sound weird but Lenora was one of the people who hate being in places like this, it reminds her of one thing she couldn't have. A happy fa

14: Insane
Mom? She may have never seen her mom before but looking at the woman standing in the crowd, Lenora's gut instinct could tell that was her birth mother.Without thinking, her feet were already moving towards that direction. However, Mark presses his hands firmly against her shoulder while saying, "Ma'am, the automobile is this way...” He quickly let go when Lenora shot him a lethal gaze. By the time Lenora glanced into the crowd, her mom was nowhere to be seen. No! No no, wait! Don't go...Lenora was already running in that direction before the driver had the chance to stop her. “Ma'am, no!” he tried to run after her but in the end, Lenora got lost amongst the sea of people at the park making Mark curse. He ran a frustrated finger through his hair while dipping his hands into his pocket to phone Preston. Unfortunately, even after dialling Preston's number several times, there was no response. It wasn't on purpose since Preston was busy handling some issues to handle at that poi

15: Who are you?
“Young Master, it's bad!” exclaimed Arius as he rushed in.Arius ran in, "Young Master, it's horrible!" he shouted.A phone was resting on Preston's head while he was lying on a recliner. He spins on the chair ever so slowly, casting Arius a chilling, dangerous glance that reads, "I loathe being disturbed during conference sessions."He stopped the call and turned his frigid stare back to it before crossing his arms. “This had better be significant.”According to the information I received, "Young Miss Hydeia and Little Miss Inari just arrived in Harithon."Preston's stunning face was expressionless. Arius would have thought he was unaffected by the news if not for the little twitch on his lips.The young and little miss, in question here are Preston's sisters. And to say they are a handful most times will be an understatement. It's not a coincidence because they popped up in Harithon. They could have heard that Preston was going to be here, which is why they showed up. They are sim

16: 20 billion
There!Preston pondered. This is the snarky, impolite, and haughty Lenora that everyone has been talking about. That he had never before seen this side of her astonished him. Seems like it only comes out when she is among strangers.“What? You're dumb?” she yelled, gazing impatiently at the door and mentally swearing when she observed how dark it was outside.Although she doesn't like her husband, she couldn't help but worry about him. He must be going crazy searching for her now. How could she have forgotten about him?She gave the elegant man a frigid stare as a result of the notion. She would have drooled at his attractiveness under different circumstances, but right now... “Speak! Who requested that you release me on bail? What do you want, exactly? You can give me your number, I'll contact you soon.”With that said, she strutted around him in an attempt to leave.Preston was left stunned by her actions. Right! She doesn't know who I am, what was I thinking?He caught her hand jus

“Hello, Miss, Gonzalez.”“Humph! And you think I'll pay you the money? It's been a week since I gave you that task! Tell your boss I don't work with worthless people.” a shrill voice that belonged to none other than Lucinda rang out. She's been tensed for the whole week, anticipating meeting Lenora's fiancee. She couldn't wait to wipe that smug look off Lenora's face when she pay off that beggar. In truth, Lucinda had already imagined how everything would play out; all that was needed now was for the goons to deliver Preston.A trembling voice was soon heard from the other side of the phone. “Y-you can't, we've captured him already!”Freezing, Lucinda blinked as his words sank in. “What? Then what are you waiting for?? Send me the location, I'll meet you soon.” She was already at the door even before she hung up. She was so giddy at the thought of meeting Preston that she forgot to take any guards with her.After thirty minutes!Lucinda was welcomed by the leader of the thugs, she

18: Jealous wife
“Woah, woah. Calm down, okay?” As he struggled to make sense of what was going on, Preston pinched the space in between his brows. His eyes gleamed with excitement as it only took him a few seconds to realize it.With a little smirk on his lips, he started walking in her direction.Lenora anticipated him to fumble or make excuses, but when he finally stopped in front of her, he did something unexpected.Lenora squealed as he lifted her and carried her on his shoulders. “Why are you doing that? Put me down!" yelled Lenora as she pounded at his back.Hmm, who knew Preston is this powerful? The thought filtered into her mind.She puffed her cheeks quickly, furious at herself for thinking those things, and proceeded to pound at his back, “I said put me down!”Nevertheless, Preston disregarded her and effortlessly took her to the European-styled master's bedroom and dumped her on the bed. Gasping, Lenora tried to push out the long dark locks that had covered her face but before she finish

19: Help me, big sister!
In Sixth Dragon Penthouse!Preston was seated in the armchair, a smirk flickering over his lips. She must have noticed it by now, I suppose.He completely forgot that there were other people in the study because he was so preoccupied thinking about the frustrated expression on his sweet wife's face."Young Master," Arius said after clearing his voice.Immediately, Preston's focus was brought back to what the investigator he hired was saying.“You really mean you can't find them?” They shivered and were unable to look him in the eye as his harsh voice echoed out in the room, "I paid you both money to find just two innocent females and you can't do your jobs?”Arius's lips, however, couldn't help but twitch. Harmless? Although he would readily acknowledge it, Preston's sisters are cute but harmless? Nope. They are nothing but a pain in the ass! Wouldn't it be simple to track them if they were as "harmless" as Preston claimed? One of them could give you a headache, but all of them toget
