Adonis read David's expression for a moment. "Remove the gag," he ordered.The man bowed slightly and hurried to do as Adonis had told him."You are Adonis? Aren't you the guy that followed Aubrey Caddel to the party? To Kevin's burial ceremony?"Adonis nodded briefly. "You got that right, David," he pulled out a chair and sat on it. "There's actually something you don't really know. There's no way you can get to me, David. The moment I returned here, you should know that you've already signed your death certificate," he explained with a tease." Let me go, Adonis!" David muttered angrily."You set me up the other time, didn't you? Now, you are here. Aren't you in my trap now?"Even Though he wasn't planning on having David like this anytime soon. He was going to take his time these days. But since Nick had already gotten him, it was a big opportunity to finish up with the revenge.“I only need to ask you some questions and you must reply to me,” he muttered thickly. “I’m sure you re
David was in deep thought when the door opened and Finn walked inside with Maggie. Maggie was blinded so she couldn't see anything.Nick tied Maggie to an empty chair before he walked to stand at the doorpost with Finn."You will leave my daughter out of this, Adonis. I told you what you need to know anyways. So, why would you bring her here again?" David yelled in anger."Dad? You are here too?" Maggie asked suddenly.Adonis groaned inwardly. "Gag him again," he ordered.David turned towards Maggie. "I can see his face. Hes_," he was forced to hum as the gag was placed in his mouth."You are actually lucky, David. Maggie will die immediately, she knows who I really am," he muttered."Who the fuck are you! Did you kill my husband?" Maggie yelled and fought violently against the chair she was tied to."Keep calm, Maggie. Your husband isn't going to be the only one to go this time.""You killed my brother too! Why did you do that!" She yelled again. Seemed like she love yelling."Maggie
Adonis entered the car and drove right to Caddel's house. Though, he couldn’t stop thinking about it on his way. It was palpably clear anyways that it wasn't David who actually killed his father. He could have been the one that sent men to kill Gary but there was someone in a high position, ordering him around. And he was the mastermind of the whole thing. But even David doesn’t know who the person really is. The drive was the slowest one he ever had. He has promised anyways to hunt down whoever had done it and he was still going to continue. Nothing was going to change. The only thing that would, was the fact that he was going to make a lot of investigation and maybe even have to speak with Thornhill. Though he had to tread carefully and he had to be sure of what he was doing. He soon pulled off in front of Caddel's house but the driveway was blocked. He pressed hard on the horn to wake the security guard but no one replied to him. It took like an eternity, though it was barely tw
“What did you just say?” Zyaire felt a stab of annoyance at his words. “You heard me well, didn’t you because I have no plan of repeating myself,” Adonis muttered thickly. “How dare you?” zyaire yelled at him. “Don't speak to him like that! Didn't you come late last night as well?” Aubrey yelled as well. “Quiet!” EverLeigh called them to order quickly. She was upset at the batter. Though she hates Adonis, she also hated the fact that Zyaire was insulting Adonis when he was supposed to show a form of table manners. “There will be none of it at this moment. We have work to prepare for. And you,” she looked at Zyaire. “Was Aubrey wrong to have said that? Didn't you come home last night or haven't you been doing that for a while now?” Zyaire hummed in protest. “But-.” “Don't say anything! If you had been serious with your life, I wouldn't have agreed to give Aubrey the post in the first place.” Zyaire squeezed his head in frustration. “But this shouldn't be in front of Aubrey and hi
“Alright boss,” Finn hesitated. “ I didn’t discover anything at all. I’ve tried so hard but if it’s really Michael, then something is really fishy somewhere.” “Keep looking. We will talk later after I get off work,” Adonis assured before he hung up. Adonis hurried up with everything. He would have to buy breakfast at work because he didn’t want to wait behind at all. When he stepped out, Kate and Zyaire were all over his car while Aubrey was at a corner. Adonis moved closer to them. “Do you guys have any problem with my car?” Kate burst out laughing really hard. “How did you get this car?” “Do you even need to ask? Did you think he could afford this kind of car? He probably got it with a loan to impress the family,” Zyaire muttered. Adonis nodded briefly. “It’s alright. You are actually correct, just that I didn’t get it to impress the family. I only said I would make sure you guys are proud of me but not in this way, obviously. If you aren’t so dull, you will understand.” Zyai
Adonis waited until an hour before the coronation when he got off work. Nex didn’t stop him, in fact, he easily gave him his permission to get off work.He soon arrived at the hall in the company. There were a lot of reporters around and cars that showed distinguished guests.Adonis regarded them for a moment. They were all there to adore him and even seek contracts from him as the president. Though, he wouldn’t reveal that he was the Fire Dragon.But with the coronation, he would be showing the whole world what he looked like. Well, it doesn’t matter. He owns the company actually but what if Aubrey and the member discover who he really was? Well, it would mean disaster for Aubrey. She did tell him that the company would be taken away from her if she married a wealthy man and She might even hate him forever. Adonis realised how much Aubrey loved to work in the company and she might never forgive him if he made her lose the right to own it.And not only that, Adonis would never forgiv
"I didn't know that the new CEO is a doctor," Aubrey muttered. "I mean the previous CEO wasn't," she added quickly. Adonis nodded briefly. "That's cool, isn't it?" Everyone started murmuring. They all expected to see the CEO but they were even more surprised and had admiration in their eyes for the unseen CEO. The CEO was so humble that he could go to save someone's life when he should have been present at the inauguration. Just as when the speech started, they all went silent to hear Drake. "So, that's the end of the speech," Drake finished, took a short bow, and walked out of view. Owen stepped out again. "Before we come to the end of this, is there something you would like to know about the CEO? We will be entertaining just three questions." Before he could finish talking, a reporter was already signifying. Owen looked at the reporter. "Yes." "Is the doctor living in Seattle? And where?" "Yes, he lives in Seattle but we can disclose his exact location unless he says so," O
Adonis had always thought Aubrey’s mom was alive. Even though he didn't see her anywhere and didn't even hear Aubrey talk about her, Adonis merely thought she was in Seattle. He has never thought she was sick.“Your mom had been sick?” Adonis demanded in shock.Aubrey nodded once and looked at Owen. “Will there be any meeting soon?”Owen looked at Adonis for any secret message to let him know what he was supposed to say. Adonis nodded briefly at him.“No problem then,” Owen looked at Aubrey and smiled. “ I will inform Doctor Adonis and he would get back to you concerning it,” he finished and turned around to leave.Aubrey watched him for a moment and suddenly remember that he didn't even ask for her name or her business card. How was he going to get back to her?"Why haven't you said anything all this while?" Adonis questioned.Aubrey sighed. "It's not that it was going to make a difference anyways. Let's just go home," she didn't wait for Adonis to say anything before she started to
