Arthur Shelby Novels & Stories

Still, he was not as powerful as his uncle Nathan! At the same time, Timothy and Caleb were still debating how to keep the little hacker around. The secretary approached them then. "Mr. Barrett, Mr. Shelbert would like to meet with you." Timothy immediately replied, "Okay." "Tim, what does Mr. Shelbert want to discuss with you? He isn't trying to get you to deal with the Lane family with him, is he? He clearly knows about your relationship with Mia, and yet, he is still trying to persuade you to go against the Lane family?"

And I know she only agreed to avoid causing more of a scene. We’re almost through the main course whilst Atticus’s beta tells Hugh about something Shelby did many years ago. An act of bravery, it seems. Hugh smiles at her as he takes her hand and gives it a squeeze. “Shelby has always been brave,” he says. “It’s just a shame we didn’t meet for so many years,” she replies softly, resting her head against his shoulder. I look away, gazing down at my mate instead, giving them their privacy. But that remark makes me think about life in general.

Drawing power from my outfit, I do end up giving daring looks to people that didn’t bother hiding their judgement, causing some of them to develop enough shame to look away. “Dariana?” I hear someone call me from behind, and I turn around to face them. “It’s been ages since I saw you at one of these things. I have been lonely.” She says with a light chuckle. Shelby Norbit— well it’s Shelby Greene now that she’s married to Bradley Greene, heir to a massive medical engineering fortune. If this was something organised by her parents, they certainly did a good job. If not, I know they’re proud of they’re anything like mine— which they are.

The crowd rose as Gelo took a tumble off his horse after the last pass. He dusted himself off, favoring his sword arm, and exchanged a bow and handshake with Shawn before leading his horse off to the side. Shawn and his horse got a breather before their showdown with Thomas. Hera was itching to find Thomas to wish him luck and throw a playful threat about what would happen if he didn’t win. But with the match so close, slipping away wasn’t an option.

I'd thought he would keep me safe from storms, but in hindsight, he'd been the cause of all my trouble. "Shawna's been single all these years because of you, Mr. Rothe. You can't let her down." One of Shawna's friends kept talking, and she pushed Arthur to Shawna in an attempt to matchmake them. I watched them bitterly. It turned out this was how they spoke of me when I wasn't around. It seemed I was an unforgivable sinner in their eyes. Since Arthur hadn't said anything, I assumed he agreed with them. Arthur took Shawna back to his bachelor pad. It was a place he went to be alone whenever we argued—he'd never taken me there before.

And this was what she had to do. “Done,” she said. “I would like it to be announced in the next meeting,” Arthur said. “The memo will be sent out tonight,” Petal said. “It was nice doing business with you,” Arthur said ending the call. “What did she say?” Noah Beck asked, revealing himself from the shadows. Arthur was a good business partner and most importantly his uncle. That had been a part of his life that he kept hidden from the world. “I guess you have a seat in the Conrad club,” Arthur said.

Arthur Hale Arthur was Cedric’s own paternal uncle and also the youngest brother of Cedric’s father. Even though he was technically Cedric's uncle, he was actually only five years older than Cedric himself. Despite his relatively young age compared to all elders and family members, Arthur was definitely the most powerful, respected, authoritative, and influential person inside the entire Hale family and business empire. He was incredibly smart, talented, decisive, and capable beyond imagination. Everyone clearly knew and admitted silently that Arthur was actually the person who built, expanded, and turned Hale Group into the massive powerful corporation and empire it was today. Even Cedric's

But she was still attentive to detail though; she couldn’t just trust a stranger. “I’m Sorry for what happened to you Rebekah; I promise from now onwards I will never leave your side.” He said as they walked. He had placed his arm over Shirley so as to keep her warm. It was with good intentions, just to keep her warm, but Shirley wasn’t with it. She didn’t know who the man was and that made her a little uncomfortable, “Can you please just take off your arm from my neck? It’s kinda heavy to walk with.” She said and chuckled lightly.

Director Freddie replied casually, making the man speechless. After a while, the man still felt fretful and said to Shelby, "Miss Greyson, you come from a wealthy family, you are our first female lead, and you look younger and prettier than Joanna. Why did Mr. Atherton take her away?" His tone sounded that he was sorry for Shelby, but Shelby knew clearly that he just wanted to watch the fun. He just liked others being involved in tidbits.

“You’re sticking with this story?” Doubt. Of course I doubted him. Shane was saying that not only did he know about our past lives, multiple past lives, but he also knew who Gabe ended up with. While it’s been interesting up to this point, this little detail had my full attention. I have wanted nothing more than my best friend’s happiness. And Shane dangled the bait in front of me. There was no way I wasn’t going to bite. “I’m giving you the truth. You asked and I delivered.”
