He just had to bear their excesses because of Jacelyn. “All your views about Jacelyn having a relationship with the owner of Celestial Brand are false. Jacelyn only benefited from the good relationship that I had with him years back. I would appreciate it if you all respect her.” Francis said with a cold expression.His words make the Carls exchange glances among themselves.Francis looked at Jacelyn. “It's your first day at work. You have to resume early.”Without uttering a word, Jacelyn headed out of the mansion while Francis followed after her.Francis left the house and called Henry to come and pick him.Soon, Francis was seated beside Henry in a vehicle that had tinted glasses.Francis has been thinking about Aunt Anna lately so he decided to dial her number.“Hi, Aunt Anna.” Francis said immediately she picked.“Francis, where have you been all this while?” The voice on the end uttered happily.“Been around, trying to make ends meet.” Francis replied. He went on to ask about h

Francis threw a cold stare at Linus but he didn't notice because he was happy.“Can you see how real men settle things within the blink of an eye? You are just useless.” Clara pointed at Francis.Anita shook her head and looked at Francis. “Don't you think Jacelyn deserves someone better than you? You are hated here, why not leave for good?”Without giving a reply, Francis stood and turned to return into the house.Jacelyn stood before him. “Aren't you supposed to be used to my family's harsh talk by now? Don't let it get to you. Just then, Francis received a call from Williams.“You did it, right?” Those were Francis' words before he hung up.Then he turned to Jacelyn. “How can I watch another man take glory for what I did?”“What do you mean?” Jacelyn asked confusedly.“Your family regained this house because of me and not Linus. I informed Mr. Williams of the situation and he assured me that he was going to settle everything.” Francis explained with a frown.Jacelyn couldn't beli

With a stunned look, Jacelyn looked at Francis.“I should have believed you. I am sorry. How do we fix this now?“You don't have to apologize.” Francis placed his hand around her shoulder. “I have everything under control.“Since you have it under control, get us into the house.” Clara said with an arched brow. “Not just by words, let your actions speak!”Ignoring Clara and Linus who was cowering on his knees, Francis held Jacelyn's hand and approached the soldiers.Immediately the soldiers recognized Francis, they saluted him and he responded with a wink.Earlier, Williams had informed the soldiers about who was paying for their service. He even showed them Francis' picture.They accorded Francis high respect as Williams spoke high of him.The moment Francis and Jacelyn passed, the soldiers returned to block the path of the other family member.They were puzzled. These soldiers had just saluted Francis who was a nobody yet they didn't even accord Grandpa Carl a little respect.“I lik

After Francis left the Kimberlys' company, he went to visit Williams at a penthouse.Williams had his hands tucked in his pocket as he fixed his gaze on Francis.“Francis, when will you pay your grandfather a visit? Are you still angry with him? Find a place in your heart to forgive him.“Hmmm grandfather!” Francis sighed. “Meeting him now will only endanger his life. At the right time, I will pay him a visit.”“When will the time be right?” Williams asked with his tone filled with curiosity. “This penthouse belongs to you alongside so many luxurious things. You are yet to have full control of them all.”“The time will be right when I expose my enemies and avenge the death of my parents.” Francis furrowed his brow, “And as for all you mentioned, continue to manage them well till I am ready to take over.”Francis' grandfather had accepted fate and decided to nurse the pain of losing his loved ones inwardly. However, Francis won't let his enemies go unpunished.He had killed members of

Jacelyn frowned. “Can't this be settled without involving Silas? We all should learn to bear the consequences of our actions.”“You are feeling like a hero?” Thompson said from behind.He doesn't want to have anything to do with Jacelyn but at the moment, she alone could save them.“Reach out to him so we all can save our faces from this embarrassment. Do what you have to do!”“Excuse you! You can't force me to do things. It's not a crime if you also sort the issue out. Aren't you Grandpa’s favorite child?” Jacelyn blurted out angrily.“Impressive.” Clara was pleased with Jacelyn. “It's good that Thompson has gotten what he deserves.”Francis approached Jacelyn, trying to hide his laughter. With a low voice he said. “Inform Silas, he will be able to help.”“Help?”Jacelyn was puzzled. “Won't he feel I am abusing the opportunity he has given me to reach out to him at any time? My family keeps making me feel indebted to him. I don't want to ask him for help. After all, he is my boss and
