“Your instincts might already be high before we could be trained…but who knows, you might get it from your father.” Verosha just answered her husband's question while they were on the road toward a certain street where she guided Lium’s drive.
“Oh, he became a member of your gang if I recall right.” Lium turned the car when he said it.
“I think it's a way back then when he was just newly married or so and he became my mother’s driver bodyguard. But after a few years of working with her, something came up in his company, and decided to stop working at the familia and you know what happened next.” She tried to recall what she knew about his father but it was only vague. She only heard it from her mother and she only meet Lium’s father when she was the one who was handling their properties.
“It seems to me my
After their first night back at their mansion, they made sure they still have their own time to chill and relax. Once another day comes into their lives again, hectic schedules will welcome them. “BABE, COME TO THE KITCHEN QUICK!” Verosha called her husband who came on running to her where she was. Lium finished his talk with Andy and rushed to his wife. “Wow, who cook that?” Lium asked as soon as he saw a three-layered chiffon chocolate cake. “I did.” She proudly grinned and it was totally showing over the face of his wife. There was some icing on the tip of her nose and some flour smudge over her forehead down to the corner of her eyes. “Are you sure?” he teased even though he could already tell it. Verosha was improving in her
Verosha can bring danger and fear once something happens to those she cared about the most, especially when it comes to her husband, Lium. She’ll be the queen that they feared crossing with. But if it was about Lium’s potential to be her equal, it will never fail to amaze his wife. “It's time to work.” Lium muttered to himself as soon as he got back to his office after having late lunch with his wife. Lium started doing his company work and did some meetings to design teams to give some advice regarding their proposals. He was doing that ever since he sat down on his chair in his small seminar room. “Well, that was fun.” Lium sighed since when he glanced over the wall clock of his office and his computer, it was already closing time.
Hearing that response from his best friend since their childhood days, Lium himself smirked and went on with their conversation. “Well, I already had a plan that my wife already knew about but I added something to spice things up which you were included.” Lium went back to being serious yet the smirk on his lips was still on. He knew that Tyl, on the other line was feeling excited about his plan. ‘Go on, I’m listening, dude.’ “Alright, I twisted a little my previous plan. At first, it was just about luring my prey with money and one property of my wife. She agreed to that but it won’t be fun if we won’t push their limit so, I’m gonna lure Barron Castle to drain his money before I could offer the money and property of my wife which I know he would love to accept the deal.” he went on tellin
Lium completely understood it and he knew that Verosha cared for the safety of her own men alongside their family. “Don’t put them in a task that could lead them in danger. They’re your family too.” Lium caressed his wife’s shoulder and activate Liris to show his wife what he created. “And risk yours?” she pulled away and looked at him in disbelief. She really doesn’t want to lose another important person in her life. “I’m your husband, Verosha. I’m willing to risk my life for you.” he looked seriously at her. Verosha didn’t like it. “No.” she glared which made Lium smile and shake his head. “Don’t worry, honey. I didn’t intend to kill myself over this task.” he lightly giggled but his wife was not taking
Verosha let the phone ring for two before answering it with a loudspeaker. She doesn’t mind that Lium might be able to hear their conversation since he was still out after staying up for too long than hers. “Finally, when are you coming back to town?” Verosha speaks before she took a bite from her breakfast. She might be having English breakfast but there was something weird mixed on them, maple syrup even though there was no pancake. She made sure it was soaking her entire plate with ketchup and mayo over the fried foods. ‘On our way since Aldrich called us earlier.’ ‘We’re checking if we’re really needed to play in the game.’ ‘And it seems it's a legit call.’ Three persons answ
“You’re the HIT, not me, Tashie” Lium chuckled as he kept on dodging Tash's charges at him. “ARGH! LET ME STRANGLE YOU IN FRONT OF YOUR WIFE!” Tash might be shouting that but her eyes shifted into something serious. She moved differently and faster than earlier. Lium noticed it and carefully readied himself and when Tash lounged at him, they were blocked. Tash was surprised at how Lium managed to block or deflect her attacks as if he could see them clearly. They were doing their sparing all of a sudden when Lium recalled something and run back inside the dining area. He just left Tash almost stumbled on her feet when she released her another attack. “THE FUCK!” Tash reacted when she watched Lium go back inside the mansion.
As soon as the call has been cut off, Verosha gets into the awaited black-tainted car with her selected bodyguards. “Let’s go to my hotel.” she commanded to her mafia driver who had a scar over his chin. “Are sure about this, Lady Vero? You’re going there as a mafia boss and not the CEO.” one of her bodyguards who was sitting in the front seat asked her. “Don’t worry about it. I’d rather expose my dark secret than lose the remaining family that my mother leave me in my hands.” She answered while watching the updates on the tablet that she took with her. “That so thoughtful of yours, Lady Vero.” another bodyguard from her left side commented over her kind words even though her voice was totally cold like always.
“She’s in the VIP Room 273.” the nurse answered and they quickly thanked him before heading to the elevator. Lium might be looking as collected as he always but deep inside he was totally worried and his hands were both sweaty. He was indeed nervous about what he will learn once they got there. When they got inside the elevator, Andy could notice some agitation around Lium but didn’t bother on pointing it out on him except an assuring pat over his shoulder. “Thanks, Andy.” Lium thanked him and Andy just smile as he nodded then they made it to the designated floor. They looked around and once they got there, they saw Verosha’s bodyguards being wrapped with bondages. He sighed over their wounds but when they all noticed Lium’s presence, they all greeted him. Lium just ga
