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

"You are caught in a tight corner now, Lyana. You have no choice but to take the flower from me."Luther Astana remained on one knee. He presented her the flower in front of everyone. He did this on purpose. In the eyes of everyone, Lyana must not turn her back on him. That would solidify her loyalty to Adrian Blood, and the poor masses would see her story and call her a true model. But she would set her entire family on fire. The Astanas would have no more reason whatsoever to consider settling things with the Rodriguez family after this disrespect. The associates of the inner circle would he further disappointed in the conduct of the chairman's daughter. There would be no more excuse to defend her actions.Lyana knew this, Luther knew this. It was indeed a tight corner, and he had her placed exactly where he wanted."You are a bad man..." Ann whispered, just enough for Lyana and Luther to perceive her words. She was so innocent of all these. Where she came from, things might have be

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

"In celebration of my lovely wife, I make a toast to every man and woman in the house. The future hold the tidings of an eternal ascent to greatness!" Federico Rodriguez declared a toast before settling to begin his meal.As he was about to go ahead, Adrian Blood's voice was the next thing he heard."Do not take that food!"At first, no one knew what it was he meant until he repeated the statement, this time with the Chairman's name. "Do not eat that food, Chairman Rodriguez."All eyes turned in dismay and surprise. How could anyone tell the chairman of Roddiguez Corporation to stop his appetite? How could anyone command him not to have his meal?"What did you say, Blood?" Someone asked."You heard me. The chairman must not eat from that food."Eyes stared into eyes in surprise. The associates stared at one another. Everyone was astonished at this new scenery. Even Lyana Rodriguez did not know what this was from her boyfriend. What was Adrian up to? The other day, he disrespected her

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

"Him! He should go first!" Luther Astana pointed eagerly at Adrian Blood. He seemed to be convinced that Adrian Blood was the culprit that was behind all of this."You seem to have something against me, Luther Astana. Is it all because of Lyana?""You are the only one who is out of place here. You got super rich all of a sudden. You knew there was poison without anybody telling you. Perhaps you planned all this after all.""And how would it benefit me if I blew the whistle on my own plans?" Adrian asked. "Perhaps your plan was to blow the whistle so you can pretend to save the chairman's life. Maybe you can try to gain the chairman's trust, and you are trying so hard.""He is right!" Associate Murray supported Luther Astana at once. "If we must all go through this test, then Adrian Blood should be the one to go first."Lyana Rodriguez was not going to allow that. Her boyfriend was no murderer. And even if he was planning to become one, he was not going to start with her dad."No. Not

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

Chairman Rodriguez closed firm the door by himself after stepping into the room with Adrian Blood. He sent out his men who kept watch at the door."Stay outside!" He commanded. "And allow nobody to come in."As the chairman took his seat and Adrian Blood sat apposed to him, he asked. "I assume you have a secret to tell me, Mr Blood."Adrian Blood wore a serious face. He knew that Federico Rodriguez trusted no one but himself, but he was getting closer to gaining his trust, especially now after saving his life."Is this about Hans Zimmer?" The chairman asked.Adrian Blood shook his head. "It is. But also, this is about what happened outside today.""The poison?" The chairman nodded. "It was a really close one. I have not been so close to death like that in my life. It was a good thing you were there. But why do we have to talk about that anymore? After all, the culprit has been caught."Adrian Blood shook his head again. "No, chairman. Do you really believe that Luther Astana was the s

As the chairman tilted his head to confirm that there was nobody there with them, he was ready to spill the secret. Adrian Blood leaned to those shadows, and he was not sighted even for a moment. Yet the chairman decided to speak in whispers."Hey, system. I need to use my vital points. Enhanced hearing!" Adrian Blood chose at once, and the system quickly obeyed. The whispers became loud in his ears, and he heard every single word clearly."Your mother was not the only one who cheated." Federico told his son the truth. He needed not to explain in higher terms, no did he needed to narrate the entire history before the understanding could reach Ricardo's mind.Many years ago, young Federico Rodriguez had had to marry Evelyn for the annexation of her family's wealth. At that time, the Rodriguez family had only less than a tenth of their current wealth. With Evelyn's family company Holdings, the Rodriguez company would skyrocket into the skies. The marriage was quick and blessed by both f

Following the faint memories in his head, Adrian Blood found the paths that led downstairs. The way was unfamiliar, and the system helped him very little. Then he was about to give up when he heard their voices, father and son. After that came their footsteps, edging towards his direction from the right side.Adrian Blood quickly lodged himself away from their path. He leaned against the wall as Federico Rodriguez and Ricardo passed slowly, almost in silence now. That was until Ricardo broke the silence again. "So you are not angry at me?" He asked his father, who was in front. The chairman walked slowly and calmly, even though by the gait of his advance, one could tell how much of a hurry he actually was. He wanted to meet this Hans Zimmer as soon as possible. He had a lot of questions that he needed to ask him. He did not expect that Ricardo would be the one to burden him with questions along the way. Yet he still found the need to give him an answer."No, Ricardo. You are not the

When Ricardo Rodriguez and Federico Rodriguez were ironing out that issue, Adrian Blood was busy kissing their sister and daughter in all the right places, yet he was privy to everything they discussed. Every word they said, every statement they made."CEO BLOOD, THE RECORDING WILL NOT CONTINUE ONCE THE CHAIRMAN LEAVES THE ROOM WITH HIS SON..." The system informed Adrian as soon as Federico and Ricardo walked towards the door and were ready to leave the room.Adrian did not feel a loss at that point. He had been able to get a little from their little conversation. Now he knew that Ricardo Rodriguez was the one who captured Hans Zimmer after all. He also knew where the poor man was being held now, he knew where to look for him.If Hans Zimmer was abducted by Ricardo Rodriguez, did that mean that Amanda Wallers was also in that basement? Adrian needed to find out. He needed to follow the chairman and his son secretly, he needed to see the basement for himself. But he was stuck with Lya

"You are wrong, father. I did not take Hans Zimmer just to gain your honour." Ricardo said, cutting the chairman off his inferences and conclusions. "I did not kidnap him to gain your recognition."The chairman stared back into his son's eyes. "Then why?" He asked with his low voice, hard and thick.Ricardo attempted to say something, but then he held his tongue and remained silent. He could not say the truth. "I can't." He muttered.Where was he going to start from. How he grew so jealous of his sister that he decided to murder her? How he realized that he was no match for Lyana's genius so he attempted to kill her not once, not twice and not even thrice? He just could not do it.Meanwhile, Federico's suspicions only grew deeper with his reluctance. Maybe Adrian Blood was right after all. Ricardo had devilish plans towards his own father. Why else would he keep it a secret? Why else would he be unable to tell him what was on his mind? Why else would the question be so difficult to an

Chairman Rodriguez returned to his seat with the walking gait of a general in the military. He took his seat calmly and watched as Ricardo entered slowly and closed the door."What is this about, Father?"The chairman, instead of saying an answer to him, pointed to the empty seat in front of him. Ricardo sighed, still full of fury as he approached the chair and dropped on it. Federico Rodriguez leaned forward, placing his hands on the table between them."There are some questions I have to ask you, son." He started slowly but surely.Ricardo quickly spoke back. "There are some questions I have for you too, father. And I would like to go first."The chairman did not have the time to respond as his son continued."Is it true that you let mother die because you were busy having sex with that woman?""That woman is your stepmother." Federico Rodriguez corrected him at once. He was well sad at the fact that his children were now aware of what he thought was his secret, but he would not acc

Ann, the new maid, was returning from the washroom. She had just escaped the close call with the old woman, Julia, who found her out as the one who had tried to poison the chairman. Ann had spent several months preparing for that murder. She had learnt about many ways to kill an aristocrat who had wealth and plenty. The only possible way she could settle with was poisoning.Yet no poison would kill a rich man with so much easy. They had enormous funds for urgent medical care, and they had all the facilities to revive themselves. Thus, she had to find that poison that kills in the fastest way possible. The water-blood poison was the best thing she could find. She spent several days leaning about this deadly thing. How to get it, a very rare thing to find. How to handle it, a very volatile thing to hold. How to use it, a very dangerous thing in the wrong hands. She had learnt all this, and she had prepared herself all because of one man, all because of Federico Rodriguez. The man who d

Adrian Blood followed Lyana Rodriguez as she stormed on forward. He grabbed her arm before she could go any further."I have always thought that when my mother died, father was trying all his best to get back to us..." He could not see her face as she stood with her back in his sight, but he could hear the cry in her voice. She sobbed silently, betrayed and destroyed. "I thought that he was racing really quickly. He was panting really hard, hoping to get home on time. Hoping to be there to save his wife..." Of course, by the secret revealed tonight, he was panting really hard. Just not in the way that she would have hoped."I thought that when he arrived and he met her cold body, his entire world was crushing in front of his eyes. I thought he was so pained and so heartbroken that I could see it in his eyes."Adrian Blood did not know how, but the scenery played in front of his eyes. As he continued to hold Lyana Rodriguez, it was as if her memories were shunted into his, and he coul

"When your bitch mother was dying on that sick bed, Fede was right beneath me. He kept stroking as your mother kept calling. The sex was just too sweet, we did not need any interuption. And when he finally attempted to respond to the call, I reached for the phone first and threw it in the bin. Then I fucked your father like it was his last day on this earth!"Lyana listened quietly, in her heart was a burning flame. She was about to lose it. She was about to go crazy."Your father had already grown tired of your sickly mother. He never wanted to marry her. He only decided to settle for less because of the benefits of business. Every time he abandoned you and your mother, guess who he comes to for refuge. Me! He comes crawling back to me!""You..." There were tears in her eyes, but she would not allow them to peep. Her voice crackled, but she would not allow it to break. She would not allow Melissa to see this weak part of her. She would not allow that monster to know how much pained s

Jon laughed. "Did you really think you could get my formular? It took me years to come up with it, and you wanna do what? Pull it off in a month?""Ricardo says there is no time. He is threatening my family if I don't complete this on time. Now that you are here, you can as well help me." Richard Lewis said. Maybe this was not so bad after all. Maybe Jon Lewis's presence was a good thing. He was going to help me complete his mission, just like old times."No, no, little brother. You are always forgetting. This is not ten years ago. This is a different time. I am not here to help you get out of your mess. I am here for my own ambition."Many years ago, Jon Lewis was a genius who worked for everybody else except himself. His brother had introduced him to Federico Rodriguez, the man whom their father worked for. But Jon was not interested in the family career. He was interested in something else. Something more."What happened to you, Jon?" Lewis asked. "Where have you been all these yea
