"It's high time you stop being childish, Charlotte, are you seriously asking me what I'm doing here? Like you own the hotel?" Joanne rose a brown at the young lady who stood in her front with a fiery look on her face. Charlotte bit her lips, she had asked the question out of surprise, cause what in the world would her stepmom be doing at a hotel, she was surprised when she saw her, that's why she asked the question. Charlotte internally reminded herself that she should stop wasting her time on her stepmom, taking a deep breath, Charlotte took a step back, and Joanne walked out of the elevator with her heels clicking on the floor and her handbag on her wrist as she walked out with posh. Charlotte rolled her eyes and didn't say a thing before she entered the elevator, closing it shut by pressing a button. The elevator doors closed shut before Joanne looked back at it again, a smile on her lips, she had come here to find out about the floor where Charlotte was staying, to be sure of h

Axel and Troy arrived at Hades' hospital to check up on their grandfather before they head for work. Axel was dressed in a white long sleeve and a black tailored suit with black pants, his hair brushed to the back, giving him a cool but chilly look as he had no smile on his face as usual. Troy was dressed in a casual piece of clothing, he didn't bother himself when it comes to dressing, and his hair was ruffled, giving him a more approachable look compared to his brother. Marcel walked behind them as they headed to the hospital room, when they arrived at the door, Axel gave a slight knock "Come in" the old man's voice said from inside before Axel opened the door and sauntered in. "Good morning, grandfather" Axel greeted as he entered the room and saw his grandfather sitting on the bed, his gaze on nothing as he drank water from a mug. "Morning, Axel" He turned his gaze to the door when he heard a voice from there. "Good morning, Sir" Marcel greeted. "Morning" "Good morning, gran

A Week Later... Mirabel walked out of the hotel alongside the crew members, and entered a bus, she sat down close to the window, staring outside. A few minutes later, the others got in and slowly the bus drove out of the hotel's vicinity. Beside her was her assistant who was writing something in a notebook, Mirabel glanced at her "What are you writing?" "Nothing much had to document a few things down. I'm done" Olivia said as she closed the book and dropped it in her handbag. Nodding, Mirabel turned to look out of the window again, as they drove through the highway of Country A, her thoughts wandered off to somewhere else. Over the past week, after the day she had met Axel last, they didn't come across each other's path again, she was partly worried that he didn't come for her, although she had chased him away and said a lot of hurtful things to him, but still... Was he going to give up on her, so easily? She unconsciously moved her hand to her abdomen, rubbing it in circles, an

The car was silent as Axel's words rendered her mute to say a thing. After a long drive, Axel pulled the car to a stop as they arrived at the destination. He came down from the car, arranging his suit as he walked to the other side, and opened the door for Mirabel before she could open it herself. "Thank you," Mirabel said as she came out of the car, she looked up at the place they were, it was a restaurant, taking a deep breath she walked and made her way inside with Axel following after. He had taken time out of his busy schedule to plan things out. Mirabel walked into the restaurant and looked around, seeing that the place was empty except for them. "Are we alone?" she couldn't help but ask. "Yes," he answered. Although surprised and moved, Mirabel didn't say anything as he led her to the table in the middle of the restaurant, close to the window a little, the other tables were empty, and the place was dimly lit with a warm, cozy atmosphere. The walls were painted in soft, m

COUNTRY B*** It was almost 6 PM and the case had been adjourned, Samael stood outside of the Lord's House with Quinn who had a panicked expression on her face. A man stood in front of them with a grin on his face as he saw the expression on Quinn's gaze. "All I want is for you to drop your charges, all of them, and I would tell my men to leave her alone," a man who looked to be in his early sixties said. He had a twisted expression that showed he was not to be trifled with. He wore a clean suit that was tailored to fit him perfectly, giving off an air of power and authority. Despite his age, his physique was still impressive, with broad shoulders and a lean build. His voice was low and menacing, and it was clear that he was used to getting what he wanted. He had a way of speaking that made it clear that he was not to be crossed. His words were dripped with malice and cruelty, and his face was lined with wrinkles, but his eyes were sharp and piercing, like that of a hawk. Samael

Quinn and Samael stood outside, panic written all over their face as they were confused about what step to take next. "What are we going to do, Dad?" Quinn asked worriedly as she saw Laurence making his way to where they stood. "We just have to wait for a call from Evan," Samael said It was at this same moment that Quinn's phone rang out loud, she answered it and brought it up to her ear. "Go on with the case. Axel and Mirabel are out of there" Evan said in a rushed tone, he was about to board a jet when he got a call from the clan's tech room as they had access to the footage of where Mirabel and Axel were. Heaving a breath, Quinn glanced at her father "They are okay" she said. The fear in Samael's face earlier pulled down, it was at this same moment that Laurence arrived at where they were. "So, what do you say? Are you dropping the charges or you would prefer to have your niece dead?" he asked with a smile on his face. Without answering, Samael walked past him and went insi

COUNTRY B*** At the Lord's House, the setting was more of like a court setting, with three wise judges. The judge in the middle looked up around the place, fixing his glasses to the bridge of his nose. "You've been found guilty of all the charges laid against you, Mr. Laurence Spencer. You not only caused the death of Daniella Corvinus, but you also killed her husband. That's two people. Your recent activities don't also speak well about you, without further ado, the court sends you to life imprisonment with hard labor" the judge said "And also, if your clan, the Reapers clan wouldn't be given up on, then your family member would take over it, that is if you have anyone to inherit the clan." the Judge concluded finally, hitting his gavel on the surface. Laurence stood there, shaken up at the turn-up of events, everything was all Ace's fault or else this would have ended well, the way he wanted it. A few security men walked up to where Laurence was, handcuffing his hand behind hi
