Chapter 35
Liam gave the old Mrs. Morrison a signal to stop her from talking about the family debts because the only topic Augustus could listen to for now was his daughter.Once Rocco brought Travis and Stella, he sat back beside his father, expecting the downfall of Travis. The moment Augustus raised his head, Travis looked down, staring at his and Stella’s feet. “Travis, what happened between you and my daughter last night?” Augustus asked.Travis let out a heavy sigh. He wanted to answer, but he didn’t know how to start or where to start.“Travis, don’t you hear?” Augustus raised his voice.“I confess my feelings to her,” Travis said, still staring at the floor. Augustus then looked at Rocco. “What did you think about this? I want you to judge him, and whatever judgment you place on him is what I would stand on.”Rocco grinned as he cleared his throat. “Travis did the abominable. His task is to work as a houseboy, but because of how Granny treats him, he begins to see himself through the
Chapter 34
Stella wanted to tell Travis she had already accepted him into her heart the moment he penned her into a blank paper. She wanted to tell him she had accepted him into her heart without a request from him.But the suddenly opened door and the angry face of old Mrs. Morrison put her into a rage. Stella stood and walked out of the room with a no-one-can-stop-me sort of face. Travis and Mrs. Morrison wondered why she was angry.Was it because of Travis’s proposal or the uninvited granny? They don’t know the answer, and the old Mrs. Morrison doesn’t want to know. She pointed at Travis. “What do you think you are doing? Did I hire you to chase after my granddaughter’s heart? Don’t worry, I know what to do.”The old Mrs. Morrison walked out of the room, leaving Travis with an unclear thought. Since Granny had caught him confessing his feelings to Stella, should he run away or stay to see what happened?The following day, Travis and Stella did their work together but without uttering a wo
Chapter 33
The old Mrs. Morrison stayed in the corridor, eavesdropping on what they were saying since she wasn't comfortable because she thought Stella would take revenge on her once she realized her father had been rich and wanted to take her away.Once Travis and Stella finished laughing, old Mrs. Morrison waited for them to say something, but silence crawled for a while.“What happened?” Old Mrs. Morrison thought to herself as she placed her palm on her mouth. “Have they known I am here?”She wasn’t sure, and so she stayed a little longer, trying to figure out what was happening between them. A soft sign came, and a soft voice of Travis followed. “I want to tell you something and I don’t know how to put it.”“What is that?” Stella asked.Old Mrs. Morrison furrowed her face and seriously wanted Travis to say his mind, so she brought her ears closer to the door.“I don’t know how you would react. Will you promise me you won’t tell anyone?” Travis asked.“I won’t.”“Not even to Granny?”“Not e

Augustus shed tears of joy as he leaned his back on the wall of Private Key bank. He went there to confirm his account balance because he thought he might have received a fake alert from the unknown master. The notification he received didn't show the master's name or account number. All he saw was 95 million 35 thousand dollars. Augustus had thought he would never forgive Liam and Mrs. Morrison, but the happiness that was flowing within him made him forget the pain of how they treated him badly. If not for old Mrs. Morrison, who took everything he owned, the master might not make him a millionaire. Augustus called the private number back but it failed. He then went to the restaurant to have a good meal and then used the opportunity to relax and think of what he would use the money for. The first thought that crossed his mind was of his daughter. He must take her out of Mrs. Morrison's house so that he can show her love he failed to do since her childhood. Days went by and
Chapter 31
After getting home and relaxing for some moments, Mr. Williams checked his wristwatch and rose as Stella offered Mrs. Morrison a herbal tea. “I will be going home now. I have an important meeting to attend.” “Thank you very much, Mr. Williams, for being there for me on bad days. I appreciate it. God will repay you in abundance,” Mrs. Morrison said. Mr. Williams smiled. “You are always welcome.” The moment Mr. William left, Mrs. Morrison started the topic with Master. “Augustus, what are you hiding from me? Which master are you?” Augustus sighed. If he says the truth, who would believe the truth anyway? What is the point of saying it? “Mom is talking to you, Augustus,” Liam added. “I’m not the master that Mr. Lucian is talking about,” Augustus said. “Then you might have some connection with that master,” Mrs. Morrison asked. “I don't want to be repeating myself, Mom. I cannot hide from you.” “The way you show courage at Mr. Lucian’s company depends on someone or so
Chapter 30
Augustus frowned as he knelt before Mr. Lucian and said nothing. He can only force himself to knee, but can't force himself to beg. He had made up his mind that Mr. Lucian deserved the punishment for beating Chloe. “I expect you guys to support me. He deserves it and we shouldn't care. I'm not afraid and won't beg him,” Augustus said and rose. “We're not here to spoil his things. He had every right to take us to jail now. The only thing we can do is to find the money,” Mr. William said. “We won't find any money, and he must release Granny now,” Augustus said and looked more aggressive. “Calm down please, Dad,” Stella said. “I don't have time for rubbish people. What I said is what I will stand on. I will not release Mrs. Morrison till he pays $8,000. In fact…” He pointed to Stella while looking at his other security men. “Take his daughter too and send the rest out of my company. I don't want to see any of them except if he comes with my money. And I have increased the amou
