Rise Of The Rightful Heir Delayed For Good
Laxus went home right after he stormed out of Bowman’s house. He turned the offer down, and this time around, he meant it.“I will not be used a second time,” Laxus said firmly to himself.He had given his best to the Kinkaid Distillery Company and what did he get at the end? Laxus was not stupid, and he was right to even demand for what Bowman wanted, because he knew damn well that there was no way Bowman would give him such an amount of money without desiring something in return. “I am not going to allow myself to become a tool in another’s man’s hands,” Laxus vowed to himself.First of all, he already sensed that there was something underneath Bowman’s supposed “generosity” and “care” towards him. Secondly, Bowman held a grudge against his family, and he was looking for a tool that he would use. Laxus might not know the story behind that, and he knew that his family was capable of indulging in something that was callous and evil, but he did not want to be a part of it. What Laxus
Rise Of The Rightful Heir A Dangerous Stranger
Laxus was shocked to his bones!What was Linnie doing here at this time of the night, and more importantly, how did she know that Nessy would be right here?Laxus was stunned and confused, and he would have wondered if Nessy had spoken with Linnie, because at this point, Laxus could not trust anyone and what they were incapable of doing. If she could hide her identity as someone living with Gary even to Mr. Henry, her boss, then there were things that Laxus certainly did not know about her, but then again, Laxus saw the shock and dread in Nessy’s eyes, so if she had called Linnie, she wouldn’t be this shocked.“I know your face,” Nessy said with shaky breath as she tried to remember Linnie’s face and where she had seen her. “You were at Laxus’s house the other night,” Nessy finally got Linnie’s face.Laxus stood by the corner, watching them and listening to their conversation with a beating heart. He wanted to intervene, but he stopped. To Nessy, Laxus was still a random young man who
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Missed Shot
Bowman sat at his country club sipping on his glass of vodka. It had been a long week, and he usually came here when he was seeking rest. Many people had no idea that he ran one of the biggest country clubs in Las Vegas, and he preferred to keep it that way. That way, he could come in like a random customer, sit at his private lounge and just enjoy a lone time.“Every man has his secrets,” Bowman often said.Although some are deeper and uglier than others while some are not as bad, but regardless, every man did have something they did not want to share with the world. Soon enough, Bowman’s staff brought his expensive cigar to him. He should quit, he knew this, but it was also one of the things that kept him pumped up when he was feeling a little below the mood.“Dragon is here to see you, sir,” his staff informed him.Bowman hissed; Dragon was too stubborn. Bowman had often told him not to come to the country club when he was trying to have his lone time, but Dragon never obeyed. He wa
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Indescribable Satisfaction
Linnie was awakened by the sound of her ringing tone.“Who the heck is calling at such an early hour?” Linnie grumbled grumpily. There was nothing that infuriated her more than getting her beauty sleep interrupted. It had been a tough one last night, and Linnie only got into the house and into her bed at past 4am. The night hadn’t gone as she had planned it, and Nessy had proven tougher than she had thought and expected. In fact, Linnie had had to let her go when Nessy refused to budge after hours of scrutiny, and Luther was beginning to blow up her phone again, just like the night that she had paid Laxus a visit at the police station. Anyway, she was not anywhere done with Nessy.Linnie picked up the call without checking who her caller was. “Yes, who is this?” Linnie asked harshly.“Linnie dear,” a calm female voice boomed over the receiver and Linnie knew exactly who was calling.Even in her unconsciousness, she would know that voice any day and any time. This was the voice that
Rise Of The Rightful Heir The Game Has Changed
Bowman was boiling with rage and vengeance.“Darwin dare take a shot at me!” Bowman ranted, his anger emanating from every pore in his body. “That damn Darwin dared to attempt to take my life!” Bowman could not get a hold of himself.He was raving mad, and he wanted to get a hold of Darwin and strangle him by himself. “You know how much I detest coming here, yet you have made me come here,” Dragon said as he walked into Bowman’s living room.It had been too long since he last met with Bowman at his mansion, and that was because Dragon preferred to meet in places like the club house, because such places suited his personality. The home setting was for those who lived without a care in the world, and he would not have answered Bowman’s call if he did not think that it was extremely urgent. Bowman rarely called him, especially when they had just parted ways, but Dragon knew that such calls were not ignored or neglected.“I almost got killed today,” Bowman turned to Dragon and blurted ou
Rise Of The Rightful Heir Deeper And Deeper
It was still late at night, and Laxus was having a hard time sleeping. Heck, he could not even recall the last time he slept peacefully, because it seemed now that there were problems looming around, and so his mind was constantly warning him not to fall asleep, or he might fall into trouble.Right now, Laxus was confused and he felt lost. Confused because he did not know if he should call Nessy; because since that night, they hadn’t spoken to each other. Nessy hadn’t even called him to ask him why he didn’t show up the other night, and everything just kept troubling Laxus. Then he was lost because now he did not have a job, and he could not take the offer too. He couldn’t go back to Mr. Henry and the restaurant, and he could not go back to Bowman; that wasn’t even an option for Laxus.He also needed to leave this apartment that was causing him more chaos than peace, but then again, he would need money for that, and he had none.Laxus was still lamenting about how pathetic his life ha
Rise Of The Rightful Heir A Determined Woman
Linnie waited in her car patiently. She had been waiting for over an hour now, but she could not afford to get impatient. She knew that if she got impatient, she might not get what she came all the way for. It was bright in the day, and from what Linnie gathered, it was Detective George’s off day.Thankfully, she had used the tinted car so no one would even know that she was the one who was leisurely parked close to his apartment, and also, Linnie had come alone. She did not make use of the drivers and bodyguards, because she did not want any of her business getting to the ears of Luther, especially now that he was determined to bring her down.“No one can kick me out of the Kinkaid family,” Linnie vowed to herself.She had gone over and beyond to get a spot in one of the richest, most influential and powerful family in the entire country; she even had to give up her love and devotion to Laxus even after years of being together, and she would not allow any of that to go to waste. Eve
Rise Of The Rightful Heir On Both Sides
Linnie arrived home with an achievement, but she had just gotten herself something to be worried about.“Darwin has discovered that the mansion that Laxus’s grandmother left behind is now worth billions of dollars, and she bequeathed it to Laxus.”Those had been the revelation from Detective George. Linnie hadn’t even needed to press further, or threaten more before Detective George had thrown in the towel.“Such a lousy prick,” Linnie had said as she left his smelling apartment. “I wonder why Darwin didn’t pick a more solid officer,” Linnie had added.She had gotten what she wanted without much hassle, but she had also been disappointed. If he could succumb to her easily, then it also meant that he should not be trusted. Well, that was something that Linnie had just discovered that would help her gain favor with Darwin.“When the time comes,” She had told herself as she drove out of the neighborhood. A smart woman knew that the best way to win was gather evidences and use them at the

An Unusual Guest
Bowman returned to his hotel room with mixed feelings.He was heartbroken, but he was also relieved. At least now he would be able to travel back and never return. Bowman had the feeling that he would never be able to stop thinking about Katryn Kinkaid, but he would never set his eyes on her again, and he could also use other women to get her off his mind a little.Bowman’s worry also centered on what Mr. Kinkaid had confided in him about.He was dying really soon.Bowman’s heart had split into two when he heard it. He knew that all men would die, but he just never thought that Mr. Kinkaid was a man worthy of death. Bowman had just never thought of it, but now, he understood why the man was trying to put everything in place.More worrying was the fact that Mr. Kinkaid had not mentioned it to anyone else except Bowman. His wife and daughter had no knowledge of this. Also, Mr. Kinkaid had pleaded with Bowman not to let anyone know about the multi-million dollars company he was handling
What To Do
Bowman really wanted to punch something when he returned to his hotel room, precisely the wall, but he feared that if he did that, he would have to be paying for damages.Darwin was not deserving of a woman like Katryn, and it hurt him like hell.It hurt Bowman more deeply because he had a deep attraction for Katryn. He could not stop thinking about her or fantasizing being with her. If Bowman had her, he doubted that he would want another woman in his entire life.Katryn and Darwin’s wedding drew closer and closer, making it almost impossible to call it off, and being that Katryn wanted to go ahead with it because she was in love with Darwin also would make it very difficult to call it off.More than anything, Bowman could not stand it. “I need to leave this city,” Bowman said to himself.He believed that getting back to his job and busy schedule would take his mind off Katryn Kinkaid. At that moment, it did not matter much that Darwin was unfit for Katryn. It was now more important
For The Love Of One Woman
Bowman had waited for Katryn and Darwin at the fancy restaurant that he had booked after Katryn had informed him that she had been able to get Darwin to come along.It had been a disastrous idea, considering the fact that Bowman could hardly deny his strong and deep attraction for Katryn. He was certain that he would end the dinner with a heartache, but then again, he was doing this for Mr. Kinkaid, and he would do anything for the man, even if it meant hurting himself.Some minutes later, Katryn and Darwin had strolled into the restaurant, with Darwin holding Katryn possessively. Bowman had bit his lower lip in stark jealousy as they both looked like the perfect couple. He had known that this was going to shred his heart into pieces. They hadn’t even gotten to him yet and he was already in pains.Bowman slowly and cautiously got up as they approached his table, because he did not want Katryn to taunt him about leaping to his feet again.“Thank you for inviting us to dinner,” Katryn
An Idea!
Bowman’s mind was going round and round with thoughts of how he would be able to get the job done. He had already missed his chance at the club to get to know something about Darwin that he would take to Mr. Kinkaid, and now, he needed another means.He could not fail the one man he respected the most in the entire universe.In his hotel room, Bowman could not stop thinking, but all thoughts seemed to be leading him to a dead end. The more time he wasted, the more days he was likely to spend in a city that he really didn’t belong to. Also, he had a company to run for Mr. Kinkaid, even though the man had already informally bequeathed it to him.After hours of thinking and almost developing a headache in the process, Bowman eventually came to a conclusion! In less than an hour, he arrived at Mr. Kinkaid’s residence. His heart began to race very fast as soon as he got into the compound with his rented car and driver, all thanks to Katryn Kinkaid. Bowman knew that Mr. Kinkaid was at the c
The Look
“I think I could get a table for us,” Darwin had answered almost immediately.All eyes were still on Bowman, making him uncomfortable.Aside from the fact that the club was everything that Bowman never associated himself with, he wasn’t a man that liked being around many people, which was why he was actually hiding at Mr. Kinkaid’s party, and that had been exactly what had drawn Katryn to him.Maybe if he had simply mingled with everyone else like the other guests, Katryn’s smart eyes would not have picked him out.“This is no place for gentlemen, but I doubt you even understand what that means,” Bowman said, not bothering to mask his condescending tone.He didn’t like Darwin, and finding him here already made him like him less, and Bowman saw that his words made Darwin slightly upset, but he didn’t mind.“You are coming with me,” Bowman said authoritatively.Darwin scoffed in annoyance. “You must think that you are talking to your son, huh,” Darwin retorted. “You cannot just waltz in
The Offer
Bowman hadn’t had a particular thing in mind that Mr. Kinkaid might have asked of him, but he was certainly shocked when the man told him to watch over Darwin for a few days and give him a report. Bowman wondered why Mr. Kinkaid could not just call off the wedding which was in a few weeks rather if he felt uncomfortable with their union rather than going through all this length, but then again, he had never really questioned the ways and decisions of the man that he respected with everything he had.And so Bowman had no choice but to do what Mr. Kinkaid requested of him.He would have to spend more time in the city, and of course, see Katryn again.Bowman struggled between the feeling of excitement on the mere thought of seeing Katryn again and the guilt of desiring the young daughter of his boss. He feared that the more he saw Katryn, the harder it was for him to resist her.Well, he had a huge responsibility now that he could not run away from, and he would ensure that he did every
Smart But Unwise
One thing that Bowman was grateful for was the fact that the driver was someone he rented along with the car when he arrived in the city.If it had been one of Mr. Kinkaid’s drivers, he would have been doomed, because report would have certainly reached him about Bowman’s misconduct.But how in hell did Katryn see and notice Bowman’s erection? He tried really hard to keep it unnoticed, but then again, Katryn, whom Bowman now knew was sharper and smarter than he had given her credit for, had noticed, and that had been the most embarrassing moment of his life.As soon as Bowmna arrived at his hotel room, he dashed into the restroom and all he needed to do was envision Katryn and think of her as he touched himself, and the pleasure came freely to him. Bowman wasn’t a man who engaged in self-pleasure, especially when he could easily go out and get whatever woman he wanted, but on rare occasions when he was badly starved, especially at night, he indulged in it.Even at that, Bowman had ha
Irresistible
Bowman wished that he could say no, but then again, turning Mr. Kinkaid down was not something that he could deal with. Besides, he had no excuse as to why he couldn’t drop Katryn off.Thoughts of Katryn being in the car with him, in the same space with him, and possibly close to him aroused and scared him at the same time.“I promise not to be a bully,” Katryn said, sounding like a little child that needed to be spanked by a man like Bowman.Jeez, he hated where his thoughts always went the moment he looked at Katryn or even thought of her.How could he become so attracted to the one woman that was off limits for Bowman? He could have any woman he wanted to, all thanks to Mr. Kinkaid who had made him a man of money and power, even though no one knew him in the city. If Katryn Kinkaid had been another woman, Bowman would have had sex with her by now.And maybe this insane arousal and obsession would have disappeared.One of the many reasons that Bowman hadn’t committed to any woman, o
Forbidden Fruit
“Hi, daddy!” Katryn had called out, bubbling with laughter and joy as she went right to where Mr. Kinkaid was seated and hugged him tightly.Mr. Kinkaid had hugged her right back, and in that moment, Bowman had seen how happy and proud Mr. Kinkaid had been, and of course, his happiness.And that was the first time that Bowman wished that he also had a family.Katryn was dressed in crop top shirt and shorts that revealed her tall and full thighs. Bowman had tried to take his eyes away from them, but he couldn’t. Her hair, the same as Mr. Kinkaid’s, had been tied in a ponytail, revealing her beautiful ears and earrings.Bowman had swallowed hard over and over again. Seated right there, as he watched Mr. Kinkaid’s only daughter and child, he had been hard as a rock.For the first time, he had wanted a woman so badly.“She is forbidden fruit, Bowman,” that same voice had warned Bowman.“Don’t I know you?” Katryn had asked, finally turning to Bowman and dragging him out of the battle he wa
