Chapter 222
"What!" James was appalled at the order that hit him like a huge cyclone. Before either himself or the mother could say a word, the band of angry looking men had come pounding at them. "Isabella!!" James blurted, but that was the only thing he could do. Just yell and nothing else. Dorathy was too stunned to find her words. She wanted to do a lot of things but she felt too weak. At first she thought this was a mistake. Perhaps her daughter was not saying this and the men were only acting of their own discretion. Perhaps they misunderstood her command. But when she looked at Isabella and saw how resentful and unapologetic she looked, Dorathy could tell at once that this was truly the true intentions of her daughter. Suddenly the fatigue that only weighed on her body drained the energy in her legs and made her slump. If it wasn't for the quick reaction of the men who were holding on to her, her heavy fall on the ground would have been fatal. "Mother!" James exclaimed.Seeing what h
Chapter 221
James wasn't sure of what to make of this. Whose was that sound? The doubt right now wasn't whether or not there was a sound. Instead, it was the question of whom the perpetrator was and who the victim was. Never had he, in his life seen his mother raise her hands on his sister. There has been occasion when he had left the house at the fit of rage because his mother would always place Isabella over him even while he was still a boy and quite younger. Since he was the youngest at that time, wasn't it right that he would be treated a lot warmer and kinder? Instead it was the opposite. His sister was always the one at the forefront who got the prefential treatment. Judging by the past experience and information, it was unlikely that his mother would slap his sister. This leaves him with the most impossible and outrageous thought a child could ever conceive against his own mother.Could it perhaps be what he feared it to be? It was impossible. How could that happen? What child on earth
Chapter 220
"Jessica, come help go to the stor---" Dorathy held the last straw of the word following what Jessica had just said. When Jessica had walked in, Dorathy had been busy on her phone trying to sort a couple of things out. Now that the situation has gotten out of control regarding Irwin, she had been trying to speak to a couple of people. People who might have the unadulterated truth. She had been on this for quite a long time that she had almost forgotten that they didn't have groceries or what they could prepare for the night. Isabella had been out and returned not long ago with a long face. Dorathy had figured that it might be because of the recent discovery about Irwin. Jessica had also been out. She knew why Jessica had gone out. It was definitely because she was worried about Isabella and had gone to look for her. Although she couldn't quite explain why Isabella had returned before Jessica while Jessica had gone to look for her, as long as both Jessica and Isabella had returned s
Chapter 219
"Father." Dowan dropped on his knees as soon as he was brought to face the old man. "I have completed the task."Elder's gaze was keen on Dowan for a moment as he lie on the floor, prostrate. Kneeling would have been enough, but the lad loved to reduce himself to nothing before him. And of all the people who he had assigned tasks to, Dowan was the only one who has constantly and religiously referred to him as father. He had tried to discourage him with several harsh treatments but Dowan's allegiance only got deeper. Although Dowan had been the one who approached the old man about his interest in wanting to be part of the search for the heir of the family. His approach had been possible through the now deceased Liam. Upon hearing that a total stranger was talking about the heir of the family that not even all the affluent folks in Imperial City knew, Elder had been alarmed and had asked that Dowan be tracked down and brought down to the island. Dowan had been prepared to be torture
Chapter 218
The yacht hit the shore of the Island beach and Denver was carried by the three men who were quite stronger than he could ever kick. No matter how hard Denver tried to fight himself free, it was barely a scratch to these powerful men. "Let go of me when I'm being nice!" Denver yelled with all his might, but no one truly cared about his little threats. When his feet finally touched the wet sand of the beach, because his shoes have been taken off due to his fiesty nature, the veil on his face was taken away at once. The fact that his veil has been taken was something that should affect his rage and mood, but he was unrepentant and determined to make these men pay for humiliating him in such manner. No sane man would let such an insult to his masculinity be let to pass. Unless one who's eaten of the Father's heart. "Who are you?" Denver bellowed. "I don't care if I die right here and right now! I will take at least ten of you down with me."While he was still in the fit of rage, brac
Chapter 217
The man whose hips had been dislocated didn't even get the chance to catch his breath when the chaos deepened. Another group of men dressed in white suits came rushing out of the new vans. Jessica and Isabella ran back. The matter at hand seemed to have escalated beyond their reasoning. What in the world was happening at that moment? Neither of them could find a reliable response let alone an explanation. The new group of men instantly poured in their direction. Isabella and Jessica thought their lives were over at that moment. They had ran back because they wanted to avoid the trouble brewing, but as it seemed, the chalice would be forced down their throats. Suddenly, the new group of men gathered themselves around Denver. Denver who had lost his bearing for a moment quickly snapped out of the worries. He turned around instantly to keep his guard up and firm. Even though he had exerted a degree of justice on the first guy, he couldn't let his guard down. Although he didn't know w
