“WHO THE HELL DO YOU TH—” The rest of the words got stuck in his throat when he saw who it was. The leader of the new gang that arrived saw Lorenzo’s face and his legs began to shake.The bat he was holding fell right out of his hands as the colors on his face faded away and just by looking at Lorenzo, he could see his life flash right before his eyes.His mouth opened but he couldn’t let out any words, he was terrified and had absolutely been petrified by the sight of Lorenzo right in front of him.He knew that he had crossed the line, when he got the call he had thought that it was a bunch of cowards but the man standing in front of him was no coward.The man standing in front of him was LORENZO MORETTI! the GREAT SHARK himself, there’s no way the newbie called him to face the GREAT SHARK.“You were saying?” Lorenzo asked, knowing fully well that this new gang knows who he is and was totally scared of him.“I— I— I’m— You— I—” The leader stuttered, fumbling with his words before fal

“I don’t know who sent you but I’ll give you credit because you actually had the balls to come here and threaten Mr Kai.” Lorenzo smirked, deliberately avoiding Kai’s last name.“Each and every one of you is going to regret not saying the word ‘No’ when you could have done that and saved yourself the time and injuries!” Lorenzo roared.He stepped away from Kai, into a place with less lights while Kai, Catherine, Teresa and Shadow stepped aside to catch a glimpse of the fight.The thugs, angry and frustrated, charged towards Lorenzo all at the same time. They were all blinded by rage and their vague desire to beat the whole gang up.Lorenzo smirked coldly, his smirk turned into a smile as he analyzed their strength one after the other with just his eyes.He always taught his men never to attack first especially when they were being fueled by anger but it was clear that these ones forgot that part of the lesson.They all looked like crazed addicts as they charged at him head on but ever

They all stopped abruptly with Kai wondering what this was about again. He had experienced something like this before when Jake had sent some thugs to kill him.“There’s no way this is happening again.” Kai sighed, maintaining composure as the car came to a halt and a group of thugs came out to block their way.Kai rolled his eyes as he mentally counted them, he could easily wipe the floor with their asses but he didn’t want to ruin the night with a fight.He also wouldn’t want anyone with him to get in a fight but it wasn’t until he looked beside him that he saw that Shadow and Lorenzo already looked ready to do anything.They were ready to jump in at Kai’s orders and the act of service that they showed towards him just made him smile.“WHICH OF YOU IS KAI?!” One of the thugs, who Kai assumed to be the leader, asked and seeing just how interesting things were getting, he played right along.“I am,” he responded, stepping forward a little into the light where they could see his face p

Lorenzo charged at Kai, ready to hit him but Kai effortlessly dodged and seized the opportunity to land a few solid punches. Kai held Lorenzo's wrist and after the punch, gave him a really hard smackdown.“OH!” Teresa and Shadow both cheered in unison but Lorenzo was taken aback, he was astonished by Kai’s combat skills.“That was just a warm up.” He said in a vague attempt to save face and again, he came at Kai head on but Kai who didn’t feel the need to go all out only moved his ankle swiftly so that he was standing behind Lorenzo.Lorenzo couldn’t believe how fast Kai moved and his entire thinking went foggy at once when Kai gave him a knee strike, controlling it and making sure it wasn’t strong enough to do real damage.“You said you weren’t going to go easy on me, Lorenzo,” Kai said, standing behind Lorenzo, “what, are you trying to mock me?” Kai asked.Lorenzo couldn’t believe it, he wasn’t trying to go easy on Kai and if anything, he was giving it his all but it just seemed lik

“WHAT?!” Catherine almost lost her cool and choked on the wine she was drinking while Shadow and Teresa looked at each other in a bit of confusion.Catherine had just started to calm down, she had brought Lorenzo to order and she felt like that was going to do something but it was painfully obvious that she was wrong.Lorenzo’s eyes beamed with joy as he waited for Kai to accept his challenge while rage pounded in Catherine’s ear and her fist clenched.The veins on her forehead almost looked as though they were about to pop because of how extremely furious she was.“Did that slap do nothing to you at all?” Catherine asked as she stomped to Lorenzo, holding him in a headlock, “how fucking dare you?!” She snarled.She wasn’t just furious to the point that she could murder Lorenzo if given the chance but she was also worried and a bit scared for Kai.“Who gave you the right to challenge Mr Grant to a duel?” She asked, still choking the living daylight out of him, “are you letting your ar

Kai couldn't help but marvel at the realization—the Grant family practically controlled half the city, yet few knew about the tight-knit connection between these powerful figures.He wondered how they were able to keep their connection under wraps, a secret, from the entire world because only few knew about this.“Well, thank you so much for accepting me.” Kai said. He had no idea what to say or how to show them that he was indeed grateful for having them in his corner.Teresa and Catherine only smiled, Lorenzo snickered and Shadow could be seen desperately wishing that the dinner would end because he wanted to go home.“Shadow; how many times have I told you that you need to socialize more, you need to get in the sun and not mope around your house all day.” Catherine laughed as she said.“Leave him alone, Catherine, he might be the legendary hacker but he definitely is the baby of the group.” Teresa cut in as she poured Shadow a drink.“Don’t worry, Shadow, you let me know if anyone
