THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 3: CHAPTER 11 – 20
BY SIR ZACH
CHAPTER 11
“If I’m not wrong, the company has not been fair to Piper. That girl is strong-willed and has been doing most of the work on her own. She was sidelined by this company a couple of times, yet she raised her head high and fought her way to where she is right now. If you ask me, CEO Lim, I’d say, the company owes Piper a debt of gratitude.
“Meanwhile, I’m not saying this for you to think about it. After all, I’m done with this establishment. Pray that her brothers don’t decide to make an example of you all, it will be fun to watch from the side if they do.” With that, she left.
The others stayed silent for a while before someone broke the silence.
“I thought Ms. Maria was a good businesswoman, Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. I thought too highly of her.”
“Indeed, she has no foresight.”
“That’s right. She’ll regret what she did very soon.”
Meanwhile, Ms. Maria, who was inside her car that was slowly leaving the company, spotted Rex’s fiery red car driving past and heading towards Rainbow Entertainment.
A small smile crept onto her lips and she slowly shook her head before closing her eyes.
Whatever happens to Rainbow Entertainment is no longer her business.

THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 3: CHAPTER 11 – 20
Rex entered the company without hindrance from the guards or staff. Rather, he was getting surprised looks from everyone as if he was some deity that appeared in the lower Realm.
Rex smirked as he continued walking slowly towards the exclusive Elevator. He was so bold that he didn’t stop at the reception or ask questions about the CEO’s office, which left minds wondering if he was here before.
Well, Rex has never been here before, however, he knows the in and out of the company, thanks to him spying on Piper to know how she was fairing in the past.
“Y– Young Master Rex, you cannot–” the receptionist froze when the handsome blue-haired young man turned and smiled at her.
She felt her heart exploding with little butterflies that she didn’t know when he went into the elevator.
By the time she snapped back to reality, the elevator number was already counting.
She held her pounding chest and slowly walked back to her position, totally forgetting to inform the CEO about Rex’s arrival.
…
THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 3: CHAPTER 11 – 20
Inside the meeting room, the board of directors was about to leave when the door was pushed open.
Standing at the other side of the door was a smiling Rex.
“Hi,” he waved at them before stepping in. Seeing how shocked they looked, he stopped smiling and sighed. “It seems y’all weren’t expecting me. But you should have.” he frowned slightly.
Looking around the table, a few of the seats were empty because the occupants were all standing and staring at him in a daze.
Rex drew Mr. Wilson’s chair and sat on it before placing one leg on the other.
“CEO Lim, how have you been? Do you still recognize me?” He asked with a smile.
CEO Lim snapped out of his dazed state and his mind flashed back to what Rex did to his son.
“You– what are you doing here?” the man gritted his teeth and suppressed his rage.
“You invited me, have you forgotten?” He chuckled at their stunned faces.
“Young Master Rex, when did we invite you?” A man asked.
“You are holding my sister captive, meaning you’re inviting me. Isn’t that obvious enough?” He asked with confusion lacing his eyes.
“Your sister?” Mr. Wilson asked with a frown.
Rex looked at him and rolled his eyes before facing the CEO. “Mr. Lim, why have you been seeking my trouble for so long? Do you miss me that much?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” The CEO glared at him.
“Oh, you don’t? Then you will soon.” Rex looked at his watch and then shifted his gaze to the CEO’s assistant that was standing behind Mr. Lim.
“Is that video equipment of yours working?” Rex pointed at the screen on the wall.
The Assistant nodded speechlessly.
“Great,” he grabbed one of the laptops that were sitting on the long table, and in no time, his fingers started flying around the keyboard.
The people watched him with their hearts in their throats. They never expected Rex to be here. Hope Ms. Maria’s prediction isn’t coming to pass.
With that thought flashing through the minds of the few of them, a fishy taste assaulted their buds. They knew they were done for if Rex was here for Piper.
A few minutes later, a smile settled on Rex’s lips as he stared at the series of complicated-looking codes on the monitor. He raised his gaze and watched everyone’s uneasy looks before hitting the ‘enter’ button.
The screen in the meeting room lit up with the image of Maverick sitting in his office and making an announcement.
Hacking into all electronic devices just to drop a warning is something that applies to Alpha Chaos alone. It is rare for Maverick to do this but anytime he did, it means the situation is extremely important.
“It has come to my notice that some of you don’t know what’s good for you. I’ll make an example out of Rainbow Entertainment to show you what’s best for you.”
The screen went out after Maverick’s words, leaving the world confused about what was going on.
Rainbow Entertainment is known to be stainless, so what have they done to offend the devil?
Some people immediately linked it to the announcement that Rainbow Entertainment published a few hours ago. The announcement was a blow to Piper’s reputation and she had been getting backlash from netizens.
No one thought that Alpha Chaos would come out to defend his sister, after all, this wasn’t the tenth time Piper had been dragged through the internet. What changed?
While the people were left wondering what changed, Rex was bullying the board of directors and CEO.
“Listen, I’m not a violent person, I hate violence. Which is why instead of blowing this company up, I’m here to claim it,” he beamed.
“You’re going overboard!!” The CEO yelled.
“Am I?” Rex shook his head. “I’m not sure. Going overboard is what my older brother is about to do, but I won’t tell you that… it’s a secret,” he whispered.
“Y– you mean to say that your brother is also going to do something?” A scared elderly woman asked.
“Of course, grandma. Did you think I came here for my brother? Hahahaha… don’t kid me please, I’m not an errand boy, you know,” he laughed then continued.
“I’m here for myself. So grandma, what do you think about my proposal? Huh?”
Rex beamed at the old woman.
“I–”
“Rex Lu, what are you doing?!” The CEO roared.
“Hai, don’t yell, I can see your veins popping out. You have to willingly give me your shares before you die, got that?” he glared at the CEO.
“Dream on!” Mr. Wilson thundered.
“Suit yourself,” Rex said before picking up his phone to make a call. “Come in,” he instructed.

A few seconds later, the door was pushed open again. This time, lawyer Spid walked in languidly with his team of two people, a young man and a lady.
“Young Master Rex, why do you think you can command me?” he said, feeling bored.
“I didn’t command you, did I? I only asked for help from my sister-in-law.” Rex smiled.
Lawyer Spid sighed. “What do you want from me? I’m a busy person.”
Rex looked at him from head to toe and snorted. A busy person whose hair is as messy as a bird’s nest, wearing pajamas and bedroom slippers. “Indeed, I can see how busy you are. Your bed will thank me for calling you out of it.”
“Shut up, what do you know? If not that your brother is almost draining my life force with the amount of work he’s making me do these days, will I be sleeping by this time?”
“Hehe, serves you right. I told you to ditch my brother and become my lawyer but you refused. That’s what you get.”
Lawyer Spid nodded, “I’ll be sure to inform your brother about your incoming betrayal. I can’t wait for him to send you into the red room.”
“Hey, you dare!”
“Hehe, that’s what you get.” He repeated Rex’s words before pulling a middle-aged man out of his chair. “I need your seat,” he told the man while sitting down.
The man dared not show his anger. He just stood there watching. They had wanted to leave but Rex didn’t allow it.
The minute lawyer Spid’s butt hit the chair, he rested the back of his bead on the headrest and closed his eyes, ready to travel to wonderland.
Feeling Rex’s hot gaze on him, lawyer Spid spoke with his eyes closed; “Go on, my team is here… also, I’m not dead, I’m only sleeping.”
Rex shook his head before turning his gaze to the board of directors. “Distribute the shares’ transfer contracts for them to sign.”
The two of them went around to distribute the contracts.
The minute they handed the CEO’s contract to him, he grabbed the pages and shredded them into pieces.
“Give him another.” The sleeping Lawyer Spid instructed.
The lady smiled and handed another contract to the CEO which he tore again.
“Another,” lawyer Spid repeated.
The process of giving and tearing continued for a long time before Lawyer Spid asked: “How many contracts did he destroy?”
“Fifteen,” the lady responded.
“Mn, CEO Lim destroyed thirty of the contracts I single-handedly wrote and printed by myself. How fair is that?”
The people’s lips fell apart in horror. How can a lawyer lie so blatantly? CEO Lim only tore 15 contracts, not 30!
Secondly, even a child would not believe that Lawyer Spid would write and print on his own– what are those lawyers under him for?
The two lawyers that came with Lawyer Spid couldn’t help hiding their smiles. They are so proud of their boss that if they could tattoo his name on their foreheads, they would have done that without a second thought.
Forget about morals, lawyer Spid doesn’t know what that is. The two of them suddenly lit a candle in their hearts for CEO Lim. He would wish he never tore any of those contract papers.
“Susan, how many pages does each contract have?” Lawyer Spid asked.
Didn’t he just say he wrote and printed them himself?
“There are fifty pages each.” She replied.
“Hundred pages multiplied by thirty contracts?” Lawyer Spid asked.
Through all of that, his eyes were still closed.
“3,000 pages,” she replied.
“To make a paper, one has to drive to the fuel station and fill their car, drive to the forest, cut down trees, bring them to the factory, remove the barks and chip them. They then cook the chips and break them into pulps.
“They wash the Pulps, bleach, and soften it. They mix the pulp with water and move them onto a moving screen, then move them again into paper machines that would press the pulp dry.
“After that, the paper machines produce large rolls of papers which are cut into various sizes.” He paused and slowly opened his eyes. “CEO Lim, do you know what I’m driving at?”
Who would understand why Lawyer Spid suddenly started explaining the process of making papers? How does that concern what was going on here?
Not hearing a reply from the fuming CEO Lim, Lawyer Spid continued.
“Not to mention how complicated it is to make computers and printers, you should have considered my effort in typing those words written on those papers, but no, you tore them down, people’s sacrifices and suffering meant nothing to you.
“CEO Lim, the effort and time wasted on each paper you shred is more than enough to make you go broke but as the good person that I am, I’ll charge you a million dollars per page. In other words, you’re to pay my firm 1M x 3,000… What did your calculation tell you–”
“That is too Presumptuous of you, Lawyer Spid. Do you think I’m scared of you?!” CEO Lim roared. He was furious and if he could, he would have killed this lawyer right here.
Lawyer Spid yawned and went back to sleep after that. ‘Not scared of me, we’ll know that very soon,’ he thought.
