Last Chapter

Olivier couldn't believe what she was hearing, Mr. Henson and Mrs. Henson took a deep breath, if it were to be otherwise, where will they hide their heads if they realize that he rejected their daughter?

Olivier gritted her teeth, and clenched her fists, she couldn't bear the humiliation, and raised her head, and looked directly at Philip “no!” she replied.

Philip face darkened, “then get lost, forget about the marriage, I would rather not have anything to do with you”

Mr. and Mrs. Henson, hearing Philip's uproar, they quickly scampered to remedy the situation.

“Philip, it has not gotten to this, we should calmly talk this over, there is no need to cancel the existing the

relationship for such a simple matter, Olivier is such a beautiful girl, and a sensible one at that matter, don't you consider her stubbornness”

Mrs. Henson chimed in “Philip, you are our son-in-law, you just have to tame your wife, you haven't been spending time with her, that is why she is disobedient”

Diana started laughing, seeing his uncle and her aunty begging Philip “Philip” she called his name.

Philip rounded up by Mr. and Mrs. Henson, shoved them aside, and stepped forward with a smug smile “I know who you are” she said, and reclined on the chair calmly.

Philip grinned “of course, you do, who doesn't know the Orchard family, the richest family from the capital” he announced proudly.

Diana sighed and shook her head, “I mean, I know who you are, not who you are posing to be” she told him.

Philip shuddered and swallowed the lump of saliva in his throat, his face became unnatural “ah, you must have heard wrong, I am the son of the Orchard family” he reiterated.

Diana nodded “you can deceive my uncle and his wife, but you can't deceive me, Philip Austin” she dropped an envelope on the table.

Mr. Henson's frown deepened, he has heard all what Diana was saying, he stepped forward to check what is in the envelope, but Philip was faster, he grabbed it.

And ransacked the information inside it, beads of sweat formed on his forehead, and his back was covered with cold sweat “I will leave, first” he excused himself, and tried to run away.

But Mikael blockaded his way, and flexed his knuckles, Philip saw that he has to find away out

“I am Orchard, how dare you little family from the blackwater district try to ground me here, I will make sure your family is ruined, and your company goes bankrupt” he roared maniacally?

Philip was intimidated, and he stepped back a little, he wanted to give him way, when Mr. Henson snatched the envelope from Philip's sweating hands.

With a big frown etched on his face, he tossed the contents inside on the marble floor, pictures, and documents, were scattered on the floor.

Mr. Henson squinted his eyes at the pictures on the floor, and documents, even Mikael was distracted, he peered towards the direction as well.

Philip took the opportunity and ran out of the house, “catch the criminal” Mr. Henson roared with his hoarse voice.

Diana's underlining stood transfixed without moving a muscle, Mikael chased after him, followed by Mr. Henson, and Mrs. Henson.

Olivier was quite satisfied with the turn out of things, she followed.

“Stop him!” Mikael yelled at the security team around the compound, but they all looked at him like a clown.

Philip ran faster, he reached his car, with shaking hands, he tried to pick out the keys, when Mikael got to him, and smashed a punch directly to his face.

“Oh!” he groaned, and let go of the row of keys, and faced Mikael, who extend a kick to him.

Philip shifted and retaliated with a fierce punch that sent Philip stepping backward with a bruise nose.

The two of them took their stands, Mr. Henson joined the brawl, all the suppressed anger was let loose with a punch that cocked Philip's neck.

Mikael kicked his crotch, he toppled forward with his eyes wide open, the both of them pounced on him fiercely, beating him up.

Olivier came over and stomped on him on the floor, Mrs. Henson picked her shoe in her hand and beat him up with it.

Mr. Henson called the police, and waited until they arrived, they took him away, after venting the pent-up of anger, they turned around, breathing heavily.

They didn't realize all these while the housekeepers have ordered other workers to bring out their properties.

When they saw their bags at the porch, they were shock ridden, Diana lips twitched when she saw the undescribable facial expression on their faces

“I can't live with you guys, but, there are several other mansions, while, they are not better than this, but grandfather willed this to me”

She informed them, their shoulders slumped, they were too tired to put up a fight, Mr. Sun came forward, and read the will.

Mr. Henson sat on the floor in frustration, he never imagined such a humiliation existed hitherto.

“Have a nice day” Diana said, and left them outside, she came in and took a cold shower.

After taking all the things that were hers, she felt lonely, while standing at the balcony with a glass of wine.

She sighed heavily, and caress the necklace she wore “I wish you are here, you have transformed me from a weak lady to a strong lady who could face her nightmare”

She sighed heavily and sipped from the wine, she strode away, and settled on a chair.

While she was busy drinking a spatial ripple took place behind her, Regan came out, and stood leisurely, watching her sitting there lonely.

“Do you miss me?” he inquired, Diana stiffened, she frowned when she heard the familiar voice.

She cocked her neck towards the direction, and stood on her feet, she walked to him “Regan!" she exclaimed with a bright smile.

She embraced him tightly, so tight, she would rather not let him “I miss you” she mumbled in his arms.
