Majority Shares Bruhaha
Chapter Fifty: Majority Shares Bruhaha.BILL RESIDENCE.11PM.Lesley's phone beeped. The payment of the sales of her shares had just been received.The past one hour had seen them frantically pushing for a sale since the price was plummeting fast. Delaying could have likely resulted in a significant drop in value.Lesley heaved a sigh of relief as she confirmed the transaction.Bill and Margaret looked relieved too.They had stayed glued to the massive screen in the livingroom, following every news that popped up about the crashing share price.It was the breaking news on the stock market channel, so the updates were flooding in, in real-time.As soon as the transaction materialized, the tension dropped and the trio who had held their breaths the whole time could suddenly breathe easy again. Although it was quite difficult to push through a sale given the present volatility, Lesley had managed to get the attention of some whale investors who were willing to take risks.It was an in
A Sad Goodbye
Chapter Forty-nine: A Sad Goodbye.Lima stood to her feet and walked tiredly towards him.She stopped just some inches in front of him and lifted her gaze to stare into his eyes.Suddenly she fell into his arms. Cruz quickly wrapped his arms around her and held her tightly.As he was beginning to feel her heartbeat, she abruptly withdrew from his grip.Cruz was momentarily startled. He scanned her face as he observed her.Lima dropped her gaze downwards and sighed.Then she slowly reached for her jean pocket and retrieved the credit card Cruz had given her earlier that day. She extended it towards him."I I, I don't think I want you around me anymore... The lo..love I have for you has always seemed impossible... and now it is costing me the...the only family I have" Lima stammered with a shaky voice.Cruz pleaded with his eyes and shook his head."I will fix this, I promise." Cruz reassured her.Lima shook her head."I don't think you can, Cruz... I love you so much it hurts, but I n
Devastated in Despair
Chapter Forty-eight: Devastated in Despair"Wow! What a pleasant surprise! How can I forget the voice of the person whose bravery and unrivaled prowess is responsible for the fact that I am still breathing today?...I heard you've retired from the agency. It was a privilege to have worked with you, Cruz" Dr. Evansville responded with delight.Dr. Evansville was a reformative human-organ specialist who worked on advanced medical research with the agency. He was one of the developers of the serum program that Cruz volunteered for where he got his abilities enhanced. Although Evansville didn't know he had any connection with the Archer family.Sometime ago, after Cruz had taken base in Cadbury, a criminal organization attacked one of the agency's research facilities in Praggue—a coalition state.Dr Evansville who was the resident research fellow at the facility, was threatened with execution when the facility was taken hostage. It was Cruz who the agency deployed to carry out a rescue m
A Medical Uncertainty
Chapter Forty-seven: A Medical Uncertainty."About that... I think it's okay... I give my consent... I'll sign." Gerald responded cheerfully. He had a target in mind. Letting Lesley do with her shares what she wanted was a worthy price to pay for what he was after.He was desperate to impress Mandy, so he was going to play nice to get her to soften towards him. It was obvious the blonde did not fancy him.Margaret and Bill were surprised at his abrupt compliance, they never anticipated it. Something had obviously switched in the young man, and they were pleased.Lesley was surprised at his compliance too but she wasn't pleased. She somehow knew his sudden niceness was prompted by Mandy and that irked her."That's great" Margaret commented gleefully."Thank you, Gerald... Lesley really needs to get that business done" Bill added."Oh, sure... I want the best for my wife." Gerald remarked, turning to face Lesley for the first time since he arrived the place.A weird smile played on his
A Strange Desire
Chapter Forty-six: A Strang DesireTHAT EVENING.Lesley narrated to Bill and Margaret how Gerald had refused to give his consent for the sale of her shares.Bill's heart pounded following the news. He had less than 48 hours before the shareholder's window closes and the shares get sold to an outside investor.He knew other shareholders were rallying to rack up the majority shares but he was quite confident they wouldn't be able to come up with the lumpsum. None of them had the capacity to spring up any surprises, so the offer was his to lose—or perhaps Philip's.But why was Gerald proving a stumbling block to his quest? If only the annoying brat knew his consent would directly aide his father's ploys.Bill had started perspiring from his scalp. The air in the livingroom was thick with tension.Margaret paced the place as she gritted her teeth. This behavior from Gerald was nothing she had anticipated. It was beginning to look like her schemes to use her daughter for social elevatio
I Will Burn the World Down
Chapter Forty-five: I Will Burn the World Down One shot dropped two bodies instantly on his arrival. The single bullet passed through the neck of the first and punctured the heart of the second. Before the other two could react, two more shots swiftly followed. In a blink, they were clutching their necks as they also dropped to the floor. Blood splattered all over the matte floor of the warehouse. ——— In the inner room, Scupio licked his lips as he checked Lima out. His eyes had constantly strayed to her bosom since she was delivered to him. Now he was getting randy thoughts as his eyes lingered on her. The crop top and jean she had on had accentuated her appeal. The sight of her bare stomach that extended down her tiny waist—forerunning a budding curvaceous hips aroused him. Scupio had abruptly closed the gap between them. A frightened Lima shivered as he pulled her up from the chair suddenly. He gripped her frame against his body and sniffed her hair. Without w
