Chapter 31:"Y-You… that bitch sent you?""That bitch bit a huge chunk of my skin off like a wild animal." Mr Williams eyes deepened as he relived the sour memories. He laughed in intoxication and continued. "You know what I did? Hahaha I pushed the young bitch again the pink dressing mirror I got her off 70 percent discount and fuxked shxt out of her until her legs were weak and her internal organs displaced from their original position." A confident smile appeared on his face as if proud of his inhumane deeds. " Took her to my usual doctor, James, that bastard had been demanding too much lately because of the stupid lawyers whose name and company I didn't even bother to check, that insignificant bitch. Apparently she's now a plaything for Julian, I can't even touch her anymore. Then again, what do I need a broken shoe for. Once a shoe is used over and over again,broken, fixed and used again, it has to be tossed out. " Mr Williams downed another drink. Tess sucked in a deep breathe
Chapter 32: " How dare you crave my woman, are you courting death?" Tess kicked his lips with her thin heels, her heels burrowed into his mouth, threatening to rip it apart, breaking two of his teeth in the process. "Arghhh- mmffhhh mmffhhh" Mr Williams screamed in horror and pain, muffling the sound seconds after from a glance at Tess. "Let's start by correcting your language. From now on, it's Miss Jamie, do you understand?" Tess hung one hand on her hip and the other held the knife, swinging it in the air. Mr Williams nodded nonstop like a lizard, he had never experienced true fear even in the process of chasing notorious burly criminals with guns and axes. " Alright, here, wipe your hands and sign right there." Tess handed him a napkin, a pen and pointed to the spot she wanted him to sign. Mr Williams didn't even bother to read the rest of the documents, he signed all the space Tess instructed him to meekly." Good, easy isn't it? If I had taken a soft approach, you would ha
Chapter 33: "Ruben De Vries, answer me!" Are you still in denial of your feelings?!"Let's go." Ruben withdrew his gaze from Mr William's unconscious figure and left.He knew Mr William's bodyguards knocked out by his bodyguards would soon regain consciousness and rush him to the hospital so there was no need to call an ambulance. He could order his bodyguards to call an ambulance but he refused to, as long as Mr Williams doesn't die, even if he's brain dead, as long as he is conscious enough to attend the court hearing, Ruben had no intention to help. He was that ruthless. If Tess didn't have a case with Mr Williams, Ruben would have made sure he disappeared without a trace, and suffer a fate worse than death. … Tess woke up the next morning feeling great. The court hearing was the next day, she had to resume work early to make sure all the proper paperwork was ready, the evidence was submitted and all other necessary procedures. Luke tagged along gingerly. Compared to working
Chapter 34: Mr William's doom. "That's enough, leave quietly I will call you later." Ruben stood up to leave. Brittany summoned all of her strength, she grabbed the hem of his shirt and pushed him against the wall, staring into his blue eyes. Tears crystals fell from her eyes as she leaned in closer for a kiss. In contrast to the myriad of emotions Brittany was displaying, Ruben remained calm, until she leaned in closer and closer to his lips. Her face structure started changing, her previously brown eyes darkened until it was dark like the night sky but reflecting the stars of the seven galaxies. The unnatural contour of her nose smoothed like a honed pavement, carefully and naturally crafted. Her bright red lips turned a luscious natural pink shade and assumed a heart shape. He saw Tess then all of a sudden, the illusion disappeared and Brittany was an air close to his lips. His eyes widened in shock and he threw his head to the side, avoiding her lips. Brittany opened her eyes
Chapter 35: "Father? "Luuk had commenced the two weeks training of the department of software engineering, he had initially started with the elite team but after seeing their keen interest in learning and rate of improval, he began with the members of the software engineering department. Engaging them in difficult but specific tasks according to their strengths and also working on their weaknesses. Their behavior took a 180 degree turn In comparison to how they treated Luuk earlier, at the sight of his skills, they couldn't help but succumb to his authority. Luuk admired this method of taming people. Fear is a method commonly used to earn the respect of others but that's not true respect. Skills, authority, wealth, and the temperament to lead a group of people into success is what he admired the most about Ruben and he could finally put it to use. The fear of a person is different from the fear of a person's skills and intelligence and the things they could accomplish in an ungodl
Chapter 36: " Seize her. "Ruben wiped his tears hurriedly, he closed the photo album calmly. "Mmh?" Luuk noticed Ruben's crying from his red eyelids but acted oblivious, saying anything would be unnecessary as Ruben is currently sorting his feelings and emotions, self-healing. "Are you busy? I want to discuss changing the body checkup from Tuesday to Monday. I need to prepare for the competition on Wednesday. " "You need to prepare? " Ruben squinted his eyes suspiciously. "Mmh, I am still handling the coaching of the members of the department of software engineering, I need a day to revitalize my skills. " Luuk replied calmly, he had gotten better at lying but his red ears betrayed him. "Okay, I will discuss it with the Doctor." Ruben still had his suspicion but he decided not to probe further. He had witnessed luuk's skills himself and knew a genius like him doesn't need time to recharge his skills. Luuk left the desolate and cold room after taking one last glance at Ruben w
Chapter 37: " Since when did my wife become your girlfriend Dr Lucas? "Ruben hit the gas pedal like a pro, skillfully avoiding the barrage of cars on the road while checking on Tess. He does car races occasionally as a hobby so he could handle this much.Tess was bounded by the seat belt, the seat inclined to the back and a soft neck pillow held her neck in place. She looked lifeless with pale face and lips, and blood dripped out of the gashing wound, even with Ruben’s napkin tied across her head to put pressure on the to and prevent bleeding. They arrived at the nearest hospital within 12 minutes, a trip that would usually take 30 minutes. Ruben hurried out of the car, carrying Tess into the emergency ward. The doctors were currently busy but a nurse came forward to inquire about the situation. "What's wrong sir?" the nurse asked in a soft tone, fluttering her eyelashes and her cheeks burned red. Ruben was instantly pissed, he could tell her intentions weren't pure. He ignored h
Chapter 38: "Send the address, if you don't, I have my ways of figuring out where you live and with whom." "w-what about my son?" Tess panicked. Her hands hidden below the blanket gripped the bed tight. "He will be lonely tonight. Since it's my fault, I would send a doctor to treat you at home." Ruben said firmly. Tess sighed in relief, she thought Ruben had found out about Luuk's identity. "That wouldn't be necessary." she replied coldly. Ruben’s eyes caught sight of the sigh of relief. He was almost sure Tess was hiding something from him. He also saw the panic in Lucas's eyes. He smiled inwardly. How the tables turned. "I don't want you going against your words later. I will send a doctor and we will settle this amicably." Ruben replied sternly giving no room for rebuttal. Tess silently conceded. Although heartbroken Britt was the reason Ruben decided to send her a doctor, her heart warmed at the kind gesture. " Alright.""No, you can't leave Tess." Lucas roared unnaturally.
