"Do you know what I think? I think the chairwoman is the only one capable of running the Rodriguez Corporation. The chairman should pass the company down to her, and not anybody else."That was the very last straw for Lyana. She had taken enough disrespect and it was only right if she replied in kind."You know what I think, Lady Murray?" With a dramatic pose, she closed the magazine. "I think you are just a woman whose only achievement is being lucky to marry an associate. Let us face it, you would not even be in the same room as me nor get to talk rough about me if you were not sucking hard at the chairwoman's tits."That was totally unexpected. The young stylists could not contain their shock. It was written all over their faces. The ladies around frowned, and Lady Murray was totally flabbergasted. Even Julia was surprised that Lyana would respond so hard. But all their reactions when nothing when a chuckle came from the end of the room.Everybody turned around angrily to meet Ann

The night of the dinner was here. All the invited personelles pulled up with the justified intention to witness what was promised be the prequel to the greatest event in their lifetime.The dinner would last for a couple of hours. Then on the following day, there would be an elaborate party hosted in the Rodriguez mansion. The dignitaries had arrived, all dressed in the most expensive of suits and dresses.Everything was going smoothly, conversations were being held in little ground and units. Melissa Rodriguez was seated by her husband, expectant of the things to come. She had promised him that his friend would be present here today and Federico was looking forward to that.True to it, Martin Astana arrived alongside his beautiful wife. Every person present expressed suprise and amazement as the couple walked into the premises."I heard from my wife that Chairwoman Rodriguez had something to do with this miracle." One associate whispered to another."Of course. The chairwoman is very

As Adrian Blood approached the table with smiles, he was welcomed with mixed reactions. As he expressed his pleasantries to Federico Rodriguez, he noticed Chairman Astana by his side, cursing him with his eyes. There also was his wife, staring at him with all the hate she had in her heart. Worse was Melissa Rodriguez, Lyana's stepmother. She had never liked Adrian, and frankly, after Adrian's little stunt the other day, the woman's dislike had only grown ten times worse. She would rather he died and never returned, or better still, that he fell off that high horse he was put by luck and destiny."I was starting to wonder where you were." The chairman said. "People were starting to ask questions.""I was busy handling the work you assigned to me.""And what have you found out?" Chairman Astana asked in a hurry. "I hear a lot about you. By now, you should have our answers if what they say about you is true.""Patience, chairman." Adrian Blood took his seat just adjacent to them. Other a

Someone had tried to murder Chairman Rodriguez. Adrian Blood saved his life. Everyone was still in terrible fear of what they saw. The gruesome death of that dog they all witnessed. Why would anyone ever try to do that to Federico Rodriguez?"The poison is a very rare type. Colourless, tasteless, odourless, but that thing is a dangeorus venom. The most dangerous I have ever seen. It kills every organ in an instant." One of the guests examined whatever was left of the meal with his high-tech scrutiniser. He was a well respected toxicologist, and his name was Jon Lewis. "There is no cure for the poison till now. Even the president of the United States could not be saved if he ingests it. If not for this man, the chairman would surely have died today."The man stood and turned to Adrian Blood. "How did you do it? Even I could not have detected that the food was poisoned. Yet you who only just got here a few minutes ago, you were able to detect it like it was nothing."Ricardo Rodriguez i

As Luther Astana, the man who had attempted to poison the Chairman of Rodriguez Corporation, was taken into custody of the law, Federico Rodriguez had no choice but to thank Adrian Blood for saving his life.His daughter, Lyana, was probably the most satisifed by the ways things have turned out. She had huge believe in Adrian Blood and was certain that he had not done anything of such nature as to poison her father. She was also the first to believe him. Now that Luther Astana has been known to be the culprit, Lyana was even free from his constant stalking. Now she would be free of him and her past with him altogether.Ricardo Rodriguez also felt a need to apologise. He walked towards Adrian Blood and tapped his shoulder. He wore a faint smile. "I am sorry that I called foul on you. I just couldn't accept that Luther would be the one." He apologised, not because he truly felt sorry but because he still had a good reason to keep Adrian Blood on his side. Adrian Blood was supposed to he
