Adonis barely sat when he received a message that his attention was needed at section C. He knocked on the door.“Who's there!” a deep snarl sounded from inside.Adonis released a sigh. “Adonis. Adonis Kye!”There was a hesitation and then the door opened. “Adonis!” there was excitement in his voice. “Come on,” he stepped outside for Adonis to enter. “I'm sorry for the responded the other time,” he led him to his desk and even pull out a chair for him. “Please sit.”Adonis looked at him. “Why did you call me here?”“I-,” Nex's voice trailed off as he turned around, towards his chair while he quickly thought of a nice excuse.“The truth, Nex,” Adonis stressed. “ If you lie, I will know sooner than later and you will have to die by then,” he threatened in a thick voice.Nex swallowed harder and turned to look at him. “I'm going to say everything. Please, don't say that” he beseeched softly and went to sit. “Zyaire called me actually, that day because he wanted us to treat you to a grea
Adonis looked at Aubrey unsure of what to say. Aubrey didn’t say anything, so he saw it as a positive response“Yes, I agree,” Adonis admitted.“Good, I think that’s settled.”Anna smiled slyly. "Why doesn't he start with clearing the dishes and making sure they are neat!""Yes, sure. I bet he can make himself useful around here. He's not even rich. Is there really something he can do better than that?" Zyaire teased.Aubrey sighed and looked at Adonis.Adonis was shocked for a moment. It actually took him a while to realise what Anna and Zyaire were trying to imply."I'm not_," Adonis started but he was cut off quickly by Aubrey."He will do it, grandmother. He will do anything to prove to you that he's the best son-in-law. It doesn't matter what he goes through because he loves me,” she looked at him and tried to smile.Adonis sighed, frustrated. He regarded Anna and Zyaire for a moment, not missing the stupid smile on their faces or the satisfied look on Everleigh's face."Though,
The family of Caddel gathered around to discuss the next day as unforeseen circumstances had befallen them. The company was suddenly on the verge of going bankrupt. The banks that they own and promised to pay back yearly suddenly demand their whole money back at once. This was all David Laurier's work but no one knew."At this stage, I sincerely don't think we can depend on Max's 20 million order because we might end up spending all the money to pay back loans and we still wouldn't be able to save the company from bankruptcy. What should we do?" Anna explained."Don't you think we need to find out why all this happened to us suddenly? Don't you think it could be Zayn?" Zyaire muttered and looked at Aubrey. "Maybe he's angry again.""What do you mean by that?" Aubrey fired back.Zyaire shrugged slightly. "Well, it was because of you that he got kicked out of the Majestic group, and even though he's still rich without the popular group, he might want to get back at us for it!" He stated
Aubrey walked out of the room before Kate would say something else. She had no time for her. Everleigh stood up as well and walked out. Adonis's shift was off. So, he wasn't around. That aside, the room where they had the meeting wasn't monitored by the camera because it was specifically for the family of Caddel. "I didn't know you would be so early," Zayn muttered happily. Kate giggled. "So, what's this all about? What am I supposed to do with Aubrey's foolish boyfriend?" "Very easy, Kate. Just try to set him up and make it look like he wants to have his way with you. We will take that up. You can do that and leave the rest for us," She assured. "I have a great plan to make the company ours again." Kate smiled. "When will the fool starts living with us?" "He had issues but he would come around today," she assured. "Just make sure it happens as soon as it can." "Sure," Kate responded with a teasing smile. . Adonis walked inside Michael's office. Michael called him early that m
"Is there something wrong here?" The security man inquired in a deep voice.Everyone started to stare their way and Adonis was feeling embarrassed already."This man came here to deposit ten thousand dollars and brought this card. Do you think it's real?" The cashier stretched it out to the security guard.The security guard regarded it for a moment. "Well, I think it's real. Or what do you think?"The cashier smirked. "This isn't real, John. This man obviously stole this cheque. I know what I'm saying."Adonis sighed. "Can I see the manager then? All this would be settled if I do.""You must be joking if you think I'm just going to let you walk into the manager's office without an appointment," she snapped. "The right and the best thing for you to do at this moment is to leave before the security bundles you out.""I'm not leaving without my money," Adonis said stubbornly."Is there something going on here?" A deep baritone voice demanded suddenly."Manager!" The cashier stood with r
Adonis heard about the invisible hospital but he hadn’t even been there. But he heard of how big the hospital was.“Yes, invisible light is yours. That aside, the partnership I just made with Whitlock, we are the major presidents. The Emperor group, I mean,” Owen explained further.Adonis regarded him for a moment. “Seriously?”Owen nodded once. “Yes. I tried to think of something good to do. Though I used your money the moment you gave me, that was why I ran off so you wouldn’t be able to see me because I knew I would die if you did. But I got the money back and planned this. Now, Invisible light is one of the top 3 companies in Seattle,” he revealed.Adonis smacked his lips as he continued to watch him. He let out a sigh. “I was supposed to kill you, actually. But I won’t. Do you have a wife?”Owen hesitated before he nodded quickly. “Yes, I do.”Adonis nodded once. “Alright, I will spare you because of her.”The door opened suddenly and Donald walked inside. He hesitated as he watc
“How is it going?” David inquired. Maggie moved to sit in front of David. “I've done everything to make sure that Omnilert goes bankrupt. Nothing would be able to save them now. Within two weeks, they would be proclaiming bankruptcy,” she explained. David nodded. “I need it to be on the news. But that aside, we still need something to let Adonis know. How long is it going to take to get to him? We need to kill Adonis as early as possible.” “Well, we still don't know what Adonis looks like. This is what is stopping the whole plan. And yes, we need to act fast before Adonis starts acting as well.” “Or should we kidnap Aubrey so that Adonis would show up? Aubrey is the only fastest way to get to Adonis.” “Maybe we will result to that but for now, let’s wait for the result on the effect we had on Omnilert. Do you know who helped me with this? I can’t just let it slip like this.” Maggie nodded briefly. “Alright.” . Adonis walked to Aubrey's room after washing the clothes. He knocked
Adonis felt insulted again. It was all happening all over again. It was just like the insult he was meant to pass through at the bank. Little did they know that he amounted to more than what they do know.“Well, you should never judge by appearance,” he muttered.The salesperson chuckled slightly. “Sure, now fuck off!” she snapped and turned to leave.Adonis stared at her until she was out of sight. He let out a sigh as he contemplated on whether to leave or find his way to the suit on his own.“Is there something you want?” a soft voice asked suddenly.Adonis turned around to look at a young lady who was also one of the salespeople.“I'm looking for suits actually. I don't know if you can show it to me.”“I will,” she said gladly. “Follow me,” she whispered and started to walk away. Adonis followed her. They walked to where a lot of suits were displayed. “Which one would you like to go for? We have a lot of suits on display, and you can go for one of your choices depending on the pri
