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

    Meanwhile, in the middle of all this, Ricardo Rodriguez was getting more and more anxious with every minute his father spent in that closed meeting with Adrian Blood. Adrian was supposed to be their pawn, their chess piece in the long game against the new CEO. But now it looked like he was gaining the trust of Father, meeting with him while Ricardo was stuck here outside with no clue of what they spoke about."Why are you so restless?" Lyana asked after watching him for a while. "If there is anything you need to know, I am sure that father would tell you when he is done."He responded to her only with a glare. Then he continued his sad pace up and down the place. "Father always favoured you, Lyana. And now that he wants to change, he switches to your boyfriend?""Adrian saved Father's life. Are you not too quick to forget?""Right... the saviour." Ricardo smirked. He had never been deceived by Adrian Blood for a day. He knew that Adrian had some dark secrets about him. How else was he

    A person stood in front of the mirror. They stared into their own image, scared but grateful. "That was a close one."A cloud of mixed feelings was what occupied their mind. They felt anger, they felt pain, and they felt lucky. Things could have gone haywire today. Those rich aristocrats were not going to forgive if only they were able to find them. That doctor was the one who almost ended them with that suggestion. And Adrian Blood, if not for him, the success would have been recorded by now.There was a running tap in front of them. Quickly, they washed their hands down the drain, trying to get the last bits of the poison out of their hands. It stained the sink red with blood, but at least it was washing away. It should wash faster and faster. They never knew when Lyana would call for them. Their mistress must not know anything about this.Suddenly, the door of the washroom opened. An old woman walked through. Shit. It was the head of the maids, Miss Julia. She looked as though she

    Dr Lewis was in his study when the news got to him. It was trending all over tiktok."You will not believe this! The chairman of Rodriguez Corporation just almost got murdered in his own house, at his own wedding! This is crazy, guys! Crazy!"Dr Lewis was working on the little assignment that Ricardo Rodriguez had assigned him when he heard this, a big surprise to him."How would anyone try to murder the chairman?" He muttered, paying close attention to the laptop screen. "The attempt was rendered useless all thanks to the infamous Adrian Blood, boyfriend of Lyana Rodriguez. He was the person who found out that the chairman's meal was poisoned, thereby saving his life. I mean, you have gotta give it to this guy. First he saved Lyana's life more than once and then now her father? Like it or not, he is the greatest gift to that family."Dr Lewis grunted as he heard that. Adrian Blood was that loser in rags who stumbled into the Infirmary on that faithful day and put Lewis and his team

    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

    "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

    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

    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

    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

    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
