THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 3: CHAPTER 11 – 20
“I’ve wasted a large amount of my life here. Sign those papers and let me leave. Grandma, you wouldn’t want to see this Young Master get angry.” Rex smiled a smile that didn’t reach his eyes.
The old woman shook in fear and immediately took the pen that was lying on top of the contract and started to sign the pages in a hurry without giving a second to read.
“Grandma is so well-behaved. I’ll speak kindly of you to my older brother so he’ll exempt you from his wrath.” Rex smiled again.
Meanwhile, the minute everyone heard the last words Rex said, they immediately grabbed their pens and started signing. Once they were done, Lawyer Spid’s team collected the contracts.
“Young Master Rex, please, will you beg for leniency for us too?” Mr. Wilson asked with pleading eyes.
“Hmm, it depends on my mood. Pray that my sister-in-law cooks me something delicious, or that a lot of money enters my account. Who knows…” he said lazily.
“I was about to donate five billion for a charity project. It would be better if it goes into Young Master Rex’s pocket.” Lawyer Spid said from his sleep.
The people’s faces felt like they were pushed into a cow’s dung. They all knew what lawyer Spid did there.
He has not only closed all doors to pleading, but he also sealed the windows to negotiation. Now they must give Young Master Rex money. Also, they must not offer anything less than 5 billion.
Five billion was nothing compared to what they are worth, but the thought of giving such an amount after giving their shares that are worth more than 20 billion was what they cannot stomach.
Although they were angry, the board of directors, 25 of them, transferred 5 billion upward to Rex’s account. Meanwhile, Lawyer Spid who started the daytime robbery was still ‘sleeping.’
If only they knew where lawyer Spid and Rex got the idea of extorting money from enemies, they would have all ganged up to kill Jeslyn… if only they are tired of living though.
CEO Lim watched speechlessly as a series of beeping sounds coming from Rex’s phone continued to interrupt his brain cells.
What can he do? Everything going on here was partially his fault. If he didn’t turn the rage he had for Rex on Piper, none of this would be happening. CEO Lim made up his mind, he was never going to let any of the shareholders know that he was the cause of their predicament. They should keep believing that everything they are facing now is the result of the wrong decisions they all made.
Unfortunately, CEO Lim’s knowledge of Rex was too slim.
After everyone, including the old grandma, had transferred money to Rex, they thought they could leave.
“Where do you think you’re going? The play had just begun.”
Rex turned to CEO Lim and continued. “I heard there are wicked people in ‘Paradise in hell’ but I never thought I’d come across one. Everyone here today is facing this because of –”
“Young Master Rex, what do you want?!” CEO Lim immediately cut Rex off, knowing where he was driving at. The little bastard was about to reveal his secret!
“I want your shares. Isn’t that obvious?”
The man took a deep breath. He has other companies that he can fall back to. Although Rainbow Entertainment was the fastest growing company among his other companies, those aren’t measly either.
“Fine, I’ll give you the shares. Anything after that?” He asked to be sure.
Rex shook his head. “Nothing else,” then smiled.
CEO Lim knew too well not to trust Rex but he had no choice, so he signed the contract.
Once he was done, lawyer Spid’s team took the contract. They spread them in front of Rex who signed them all before Lawyer Spid’s team distributed the other parties’ copies of the signed contracts to them to seal the deal.
When they all thought the matter has ended, Rex smiled and said:
“CEO Lim, I was raised to uphold justices. I can never see evil and take my eyes off it.”
“Rex Lu!!”
“Don’t scream my name like that. I might get angry.” he glared at the man before he smiled and continued; “Your son–”
“Lawyer Spid, I’ll pay the 3 billion for the contract I tore, please take Young Master Rex home.”
“When did I say you should pay 3 billion?” Lawyer Spid asked with a dreamy voice. “I thought others paid 10 billion and more?” he yawned again and went back to sleep.
CEO Lim pointed a finger at Lawyer Spid; “Y– Y– You!” His finger started to shake as he could no longer contain his rage, he spat out blood.
“When did he get injured? Is one of you killing him with black magic already for making you lose so much today?” Rex frowned.
“N– no, Young Master Rex!” The board of directors screamed.
“Then he must be faking it,” Rex concluded as if he had no idea what was happening.
“CEO Lim, I can see you’re ill. Let’s conclude this once and for all. Show me all you have in your bank accounts.” Rex requested.
“What?! Over my dead body!!”
“As you wish,” Rex turned the laptop he used earlier and went to work.
“Wh– what are you doing?!” The CEO panicked.
“Doing what I know how to do best.”
“Don’t you dare!” The CEO opened his drawer and pulled out a gun. With his hand shaking with fury, he pointed it at Rex, thinking he can use that to threaten the ‘boy’ to stop.
“If you don’t stop, I’ll shoot!”
Rex only raised his head and snorted before going back to what he was doing.
“What I detest the most when trying to catch some sleep is screaming. CEO Lim, are you the only one with a voice here? Are you trying to win a screaming contest?” Lawyer Spid slowly opened his eyes.
He took a deep breath when he saw the gun in the man’s hand. “My instinct was right. You’re irredeemable. Susan,” Lawyer Spid stretched his hand towards Susan.
In a blink of an eye, a gun had landed in Lawyer Spid’s hand. Before anyone could think or turn their heads, the sound of a gunshot reverberated in the office.
Rex froze and slowly raised his head with widened eyes. He held his chest as he looked at CEO Lim who was holding his right hand with a shocked look on his face like he couldn’t believe what just happened.
Everyone in the room felt their soul had left them when they heard that gunshot.
“Y– you, why did you do that?” Rex glanced at Lawyer Spid in shock. In no time, he beamed and burst into a fit of laughter before returning to what he was doing.
CEO Lim’s gun fell out of his hand and he held his bleeding shoulder as he groaned, baring his teeth at lawyer Spid.
“Wow, Spid, this man is extremely rich. Rainbow Entertainment’s account has just a mere 100 billion, his other company accounts, all together, have around 1 trillion… as for his accounts, all together, they should be around 50 billion.” He snorted.
“He’s so wretched,” Lawyer Spid rolled his eyes before going back to sleep.
“Rex… you’ll pay for this!” CEO Lim gritted his teeth with fury brewing in his eyes.
“Will you be alive today?” Rex asked.
“You want to kill me?” The CEO narrowed his eyes.
“When did I say that?” Rex transferred all the money he wanted to transfer before resting his back and massaging his fingers.
CEO Lim’s Assistant almost turned jelly when he received notifications of the transactions but didn’t dare to inform CEO Lim for fear that the man might develop a heart attack.
“Ladies and gentlemen, I’ve been meaning to tell you this for the longest time. I tried helping you to prevent the doom that befell you, but you see that man?” He gestured to CEO Lim with his jaw.
“He almost killed me just now. You all saw it, right?”
The board of directors ignored him. Didn’t ‘doom’ befall them before CEO Lim tried to kill him? What with the sudden patriotic behavior?
“If you like, mark me your enemy, in the end, I’ll ruin you if you step on my toes,” Rex beamed as he warned the people old enough to be his parents and grandparents.
“Meanwhile, because I can’t see evil and not talk, I’ll tell you why you all ended up like this.”
CEO Lim shut his eyes and balled his fist. What else can he do to stop Rex from speaking?
“Years ago, CEO Lim’s dead son was going around the Country like he owned it. I had no issue with that. But one day, he made the mistake of trying to take advantage of the lady who saved my life. Hehe,” he chuckled.

THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 3: CHAPTER 11 – 20
After Toria’s parents died, her relatives took advantage of the fact that Toria was the only child and treated her inhumanely.
Toria had a talent for singing, so she went to audition at Rainbow Entertainment but CEO Lim’s son thought it was the best idea to make Toria his woman.
Because Toria hurt his ego by rejecting him a few times, he marked her as his next target to be ruined.
So one day, Toria went to a bar to drink away her sorrow. CEO Lim’s son found out where she was and went after her. When he got there, Toria was a bit tipsy. The guy felt it was the best opportunity to have his way with Toria, and then make others sleep with her before recording it and posting it online… that’s what he’s known for.
It was at that moment when he was having a tussle with Toria that Rex barged into the bar and dealt with CEO Lim’s son.
Rex beat and forced the guy to strip naked and had a prostitute play with him, and had the guy’s minions record the ordeal. Once it was done, Rex forced them to post the videos.
After the videos were posted, Rex didn’t stop there. He went as far as hacking the world’s system and forcing almost everyone in the world to watch the video. Although the scene and the prostitute were blurred, CEO Lim’s dearest son’s face was left on display for 15 hours.
Not just that, the video also trended for a few weeks. Making CEO Lim’s son a mockery until he couldn’t bear it anymore and committed suicide, just like what his victims always did.
CEO Lim was furrowed but had no power to seek revenge, which was why, when Piper started showing talent, he did everything possible to pull her into his company, believing that he could make her suffer.
But the man didn’t blatantly show his fangs because Piper’s mother wasn’t the type to trifle with, so what he did was to slowly make the girl suffer in the guise of work.
Piper’s suffering wasn’t limited to a bad reputation. It went as far as tying her down with rotten contracts and sometimes, being forced to sleep with men for roles.
However, the oblivious Piper would rather have a fleeting relationship with an investor’s favorite son who can make his father invest in her drama, than allow an old man to come close to her body.
Her packaged way of going about things was why no one in the entertainment industry would dare say Piper used her body to get roles. Meanwhile, that was the plain truth.
…
THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 3: CHAPTER 11 – 20
The board of directors gasped in disbelief after hearing that they had unknowingly been using Piper just for a stupid revenge plan. The men and women were outraged but before they could do anything, Rex got up.
“Now, the company is mine and you’ve been reduced to nothing. If I see you or your people close to this building after today, you’ll be sorry.”
Lawyer Spid got up but before he left, he shot CEO Lim’s second shoulder.
“Bang!”
“Arghh!!”
CEO Lim groaned in pain. His two hands are paralyzed now. He just sat on his seat, gritting his teeth with reddened eyes.
“That’s for disrespecting an outstanding lawyer like me.” Lawyer Spid turned and left with Rex and his people.
….
THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 3: CHAPTER 11 – 20
Meanwhile, after Maverick made that announcement, the bad things that Rainbow Entertainment had done, including the underhanded things that were done by the members of CEO Lim’s family started floating on the internet.
Inspector Fin who was witch-hunting bad people was the happiest of them all.
Piper couldn’t believe what had happened in the space of a few hours. Is this the benefit of having brothers? She thought.
