"Well, it seems like we've got a wedding to plan". Emperor Francis announced, breaking the awkward silence.
Henry stood, dumbfounded about Kim's action. It baffles him how he wasn't angry at her action but felt a strong urge to take her right there. She wanted to move away from him, instead, he grabbed her waist, holding her tightly. She wanted to push him away but he gave her a threatening look. She then realized what she had just done. She didn't like the looks in his eyes. Is he going to sleep with her when they get back?. She only did it to save herself, she didn't mean to offend him.Leonard felt defeated by his half-brother, He swore to bring him down by all means. He moved near Henry and whispered. " You win this time, next time you won't get to escape me."Immediately everyone returned to their original positions and Henry took Kimberly with him to the car, the drive to his mansion was silent as he kept thinking about how soft her lips were on his. He hadn't had that feeling for a very long time. This woman was something else, She slapped him angrily earlier, and now she kissed him passionately. What does she want?.Kim stared at the man beside her, what was going through his mind? his face said something else. He looked normal. She doubted he didn't have a wicked thought about her."I.. I. I'm sorry", Kim stuttered. Apologizing for kissing him earlier. She watched his face silently. Waiting for him to reply. "What for?" he replied coldly. "For my actions back there, I shouldn't have done it." She said." Don't worry about it, we'll be doing that more often when we finally get married ", he said sarcastically, it almost meant he would kiss her every day and she got scared.When they got to the mansion, Kim went to her room and Henry to his study. He couldn't get his mind off this kiss. He sits on his couch comfortably with his eyes, closed. He wasn't asleep. He heard the message notification on his phone and took his phone from his pocket to check it. His face turned cold with a frown.he played the video, it was a video of Kim at the club and how he bought her in the auction. The message was from an anonymous number, but he already knew Leonard was behind it. This was the meaning behind his threats at the palace." Andrew" he called out and He entered the study. Andrew was always on alert whenever Henry needs him. He always stood outside the study room waiting to be called in."I need you to arrange a meeting tonight with Leonard" He said. " Yes, boss" Andrew replied, and immediately he took out the phone to contact Leonard. Who immediately replied to the message, expected it already.Margaret and Vanessa entered the room together, talking." I can't believe Henry would stoop so low, did you see how cheap that girl looks?, even makeup couldn't change the fact that she is probably from a poor family, She's no match for me, a low life." Margret boasted proudly. "Since he choose her over many princesses and daughters of the Noble and rich families there's something behind it, I just can't wrap my hands around it," Vanessa said and sits on the big bed. They were both in her chamber. She watched how Margaret blabbed about how she would make the imperial Palace a living hell for Kimberly George."Already, we know she's no match for you. You don't have to be all worked up, over it." Vanessa said again." She's more like a slave or puppet to him, I guess. She couldn't even talk about her family and I'm sure she doesn't have one. Such a gold digger." Margret said."One thing is for sure, She's no match for you," Vanessa added and the raging Margaret looked calm immediately.In a club, inside the VIP room, immediately Henry entered. "Brother, come and join me," Leonard said. Henry felt disgusted by the sight of the prostitute giving Leonard a hand job. "If you want to have a deal with me, get rid of this sight," Henry said angrily. He felt disrespected by his half-brother."Lisa, excuse us. I'll call you back baby." He said and the naked girl stood up, he spanked her ass seductively. The girl walked out of the room. She turned back to give Henry a seductive stare. instead, he ignored her.Immediately Henry sits down, Leonard didn't waste time speaking."She's no different from your fiancee." He blurted."Watch your mouth or you'll get it hard from me.""What do you mean, oh! you want to beat me." He said sarcastically and smirked."Tell me, of all ladies you choose a prostitute as a wife and the future Empress? you're something else, Henry." Leonard said and grinned." That shouldn't be your problem, I'm giving you a few minutes to delete that video, or I won't be responsible for my actions." He threatened sternly." Or what would happen"? Leo stood up, pointing a gun at Henry. Andrew immediately pointed his gun at Leonard. The atmosphere becomes quiet.Henry looked calm, but the rage inside of him could burn the whole place down. "Drop the gun down," Henry said, waving at Andrew. He knew Leonard wouldn't shoot him, the consequences would be dire. " Brother, what are you so afraid of? Why getting all insecure about me getting married? Are you scared that I'll bare an heir before you?" Henry said and grinned.Both men looked at each other Hatefully. The enmity between the two brothers becomes stronger.Leonard hates the nonchalant look on his face. Henry has been so daring since they were children. Leonard knew he didn't stand a chance. The Emperor favored Henry more than him. They see him as a playboy and it is a serious one, even when he did things to please his father. He always preferred Henry.With jealousy mixed with anger, he badly wants to bring Henry down at all costs."This is so delicious, I haven't eaten something like this in ages," Kim exclaimed happily with her mouthful of food.Her eyes suddenly went to the clock hanging on the wall then she paused for a while. "It's so late and he isn't back yet, Did something happen?" She asked herself. He left hurriedly earlier and She didn't want to assume he was out with another woman because it was none of her business. Since he started in the contract. She shouldn't ask him personal questions. She then continued eating her food but suddenly it felt like someone was watching her and she turned to the door. Staring at the man entering the room.His dark aura immediately clouded the room and she felt uncomfortable with it. If she is a weak woman, she'll have had a great fear of him. instead, She ignored him and continued eating.He also didn't seem to pay attention to her and acted like he was the only one in the room. He must have fought with his real girlfriend, his anger was written all over his face.
Kim was still in deep thoughts when a knock on the door brought her back to reality, "maybe I should just stop imagining things". She said. "Miss, you ready?" Andrew asked from outside the room. "Give me five minutes and I'll be out." She said out loudly so he would hear her. Margaret hurried into Gabriella's chamber and without wasting time, she spoke."your majesty, are you gonna sit down and allow the marriage between Henry and that cheap slut to happen?" "Of course, not Margaret, I won't have anyone take you and my son's place." She replied immediately."Then you know what to do and not to waste time with it." She clenched her fist tightly."The emperor seems to be carried away by that girl's charm. I don't know what he sees in her." "Whatever our plans are, we need to hurry about it. They might start trying for a child when the Emperor gets an heir. nothing would stop Henry from succeeding in the empire" Margret was nervous saying this. The idea of Henry bringing a child to t
"ma'am, this is the best restaurant in town" Andrew said packing in front of *El Klassique restaurant*.Seeing the name, she said " Andrew this place looks very expensive,I can't afford it,Take us to somewhere else. A simple place maybe. She said said shamefully." I'm sorry miss, his highness asked me to give you this black card to use whenever you need it" Andrew said, stretching a black ATM card to Kim. She shook her head immediately."No thank you,I can't take that." She rejected. "Wow sis,a black card? Your husband must be very rich. Why are you rejecting it? Are you both quarrelling." David asks sharply. "No brother". She hurriedly accepted it not to raise davids suspicions."She's rejecting my card? Henry said angrily. Holding an iPad. immediately he took out his phone and dialed out a number."Hello,book me the quickest flight back to the city ". He was already through with his business meeting and was also eager to meet kim's little brother who threatened to kick someone's b
"you'll have to be careful, the Williams Manor is a dangerous place to live in". Henry warned Kim sternly. "Wait! You're not coming with me?". she asked, surprised."I have things to attend to, and I've never lived there since I was a kid". He confessed briefly."Huh!" Kim exclaimed. Surprised. No wonder she noticed the relationship between him and the family wasn't mutual. The enmity has been going on for a long time. She was then quiet and stared at him."Don't trust anyone, if any situation occurs report to me immediately, I'll send some of my maids with you, reject any offer from them regarding a personal servant from their Manor" He advised. Henry didn't live there, but he was familiar with the ways of the imperial mansion. Once they devise a plan to get rid of someone or something, they do it to the fullest. He was also afraid he wouldn't be there to protect Kimberly all the time, so she also needed to be strong and able to protect herself. He trusts her to it since she is clev
"A gay bar? What an outrageous place for a meeting." Henry said after Andrew had just informed him about Mr. Clinton's meeting invitation.An hour later, Henry, accompanied by Andrew walked inside the VIP room and already saw Elvis waiting for them."Mr. Williams, how nice it is to have you here." A handsome man in his mid-thirties beaconed."Mr. Elvis, it's nice to meet you again, What do I owe this invite?" Henry asked, sitting down. Mr. Elvis Clinton is a well-known business tycoon, he owns a gay bar, and literally, everyone assumes he's gay, He owns many stores in the city, and he uses the gay bar for private business meetings, only his close business partners are familiar with his strategy."Henry!, Henry, What else would make me invite you over here?" Elvis said, with a broad smile exposing his perfect dentition."What would two men be doing in a gay bar? Making love?" Henry mocked and smirked."Ha ha ha!!!, I never knew Henry Williams was this funny, you're unlike your brother
Henry saw the strippers Elvis had arranged for him. What can Elvis not do? Female strippers in a gay bar? They came out in unison, showing and displaying their curves. One of the women went as far as trying to approach Henry but Andrew stopped him. If the woman was to touch Henry, she wouldn't get a happy ending. Henry would kill her immediately. "Mr. Williams, you seem uninterested? Do these women not fit your taste? I can have them bring another for you." Elvis suggested. Earlier, when he had Leonard come, he was easily satisfied with the women he had arranged for him. But it seemed Henry wasn't."I don't need any of these sluts. I have my woman." He said."Really? I would love to meet her, when would you introduce us?.""I think that isn't necessary, since she isn't involved in our business discussion. Mr. Clinton." He said, matter-of-factly.They were still discussing when Elvis ordered them to lead the women out of the room. Andrew quickly approached Henry and whispered to his e
Henry's heart skipped when he heard the gunshot.For a moment he didn't think straight."Kim!, Kimberly!!." He yelled and tried going upstairs, where he heard the gunshot sound. But was restricted by the bodyguards. He quickly pushed one of them to the floor and gave him a punch. Leonard walked on the staircase slowly. He loved the pressure he puts his brother in and gave a satisfactory smile He loved that Henry was suffering. Now he can confirm that henry valued his little pet girl."Henry Williams, what an unpleasant surprise to see you in my mansion beating my bodyguards." Leonard said dramatically.Henry quickly moved towards him."Where is she? What did you do to her?."Leonard laughed out loudly and spoke calmly."Common, you've visited my mansion since a very long time, come have a sit." He beaconed in a friendly manner. But it wasn't really friendly, he was purposely trying to provoke Henry more.Henry ignored him."Not sitting? Then I'll just have to watch the show." A group
Leonard walked past Henry after seeing him do what he wanted. He enjoyed the fact that he had control of his obstinate and so-called powerful brother. Even if it was because of a woman. A sweet woman. He thought. Kimberly already caught his fancy even though she is his brother's woman, he had his eyes on heHis phone rang continuously while he was heading into the mansion.He picked it up. "Have you kidnapped the little boy?" He asked the person he was speaking with on the phone.The person gave a positive response. "Send me proof" he commanded.He went upstairs to see Kim.He had his maids give her a makeover. Although she was being defiant, she still let them do it when they pleaded. Leonard might kill them if she refused. "You look stunning" he complimented with a smile.Kimberly watched the maids leave with fearful looks in their eyes. It was obvious how deeply they feared this demon. Leonard."I'm taking you to see Henry, he'll ask you if we spent the night together, your respons
