Chapter: Chapter one hundred and sixteen "You won't dare!" Henry shouted. "Do you think those people have the right to have me pushed out of my own organization?" He roared again. "To me, those people's opinions mean a lot more to me than yours would ever be." Jason replied. Richard Desmond let out a smile seeing that Jason was trying to outsmart Henry even at his very own game. Eric and Camilla looked at each other and saw Jason was no longer the timid boy he used to be. He looked more fearsome and more determined than ever. "Why don't we go ahead with what Mr. Jason had just said? It is a tie between you both." Richard looked at Henry's face. The tension was visibly seen in the boardroom as people who wanted Jason out and Henry out started to quarrel among themselves. Jason saw it was chaos already; he let out a smile and looked back at Henry with a calculative gaze. He had wanted him to work with the security personnel, but maybe just with the right push, then he can have him sent out of the organization. "What i

Chapter: Chapter one hundred and fifteen Eric walked in with pride, staring at everyone at their seat. "I still wondered why you all decided to stick to this delinquent." He said slowly, looking at Jason. "You all have known me for how long now? Years, months... I practically know how Thomas Carter built up this empire after his death." He said, tapping the chair in front of him. "I find it hard and disturbing to see that you are quick to give Jason the seat that belongs to me." Jason looked at him and laughed, "And who knew you also had hidden claws?" He jested. "To think I believed you could be the man I looked up to was disheartening when I found out that you were a son to Thomas Carter." Jason walked away from the door towards the seat in front of them all. "I wonder how many there are of us out there." There was a slight laughter in the room, making Eric's face harden the more. "Enough of this bickering!" Henry snapped, and there was silence once more. "Have you seen the news? You made a fool of the family by

Chapter: Chapter one hundred and fourteen Sniper was about to talk when a call came into Jason's phone. He looked at who the caller was and saw it was Nicholas again. Jason frowned; he had not been going to work for some time now. "Have got important things to attend to." Jason said in anger. Marcus looked at him. "Are you alright? Why don't you pick that up?" Mr Nicholas had been trying to grab Jason's attention for sometime now. Since he was back from death, he hasn't been to the organization once. "Don't you think you need to answer the man?" Jason frowned, "This is my company; I believe Mr. Nicholas would be capable of looking after it. Besides, I trust him." Marcus looked at Sniper and back to Zeek. "He is right, Jason. You need to pay more attention to your family's business." Zeek chipped in Jason smiled and went back to sniper. "You were saying?" "I heard Henry and Dylan talking about another man who went rogue. I think he also knows about the death of your parents." Sniper looked at Marcus.

Chapter: Chapter one hundred and thirteen "What was that about?" Marcus looked at Jason as they walked into his mansion. "What?" Jason asked, turning to meet his anxious gaze. "Don't tell me you don't understand what I mean. Irene and Alessia. What is the drift between the three of you?" Marcus replied. "Nothing." Jason said slowly, feeling a little tired. He closed his eyes, and by the time he had them opened, Marcus was still staring at him. "Nothing. I don't love or feel emotionally attached to either of them." Jason replied, but Marcus's gaze made him squish on the chair he sat on. "Well, I might have been into Irene when I was at my weakest." Jason said barely above his voice. "She was right after all." Marcus looked at him. "Right? About what?" "The girl was there for you when you were at your weakest." "There for me, not helping me with my financial crises. She was just a shoulder to rest on." Jason said, clearing the air. "Yeah, I feel you. But don't you think she is reading more meaning into it? Do yo

Chapter: Chapter one hundred and twelve Irene walked towards the stage and grabbed Alessia off the poduim. " What are you doing?" She asked with anger. " I don't understand." Alessia said with anger visibly shown on her face. " Jason is my man and you know it. So tell me what the fuck was that!" Irene looker at her. " I love him and I don't mind scremsin it outloud that I am in love with Jason walkers." Alessia replied with a bold face. " Oh, you do now right?' Where were you when he had nothing? I am pretty sure you are one of the many who criticise Jason then." Irene said in anger. " Well, I am not the one with the bad luck!" Alessia said back at her sister. Irene's hand moved before her lips could. The deafening slap sounded so much that it shifted everyone's gaze from Jason for a while. " Where did that sound came from?" " Did you hear that?" " I could have sworn I heard a deafening slap right now." The students all stared at Alessia and Irene. Alessia was holding her face while Irene was fuming

Chapter: Chapter one hundred and Eleven "What is the plan?" A voice asked right behind Ethan. Ethan looked back and saw it was Fiona. "I can't have Jason tearing down the family. Everyone wants his head on a spike," she said with venom and loomed towards the podium where Jason stood addressing the students. Ethan grinned, "I am in now. It is only a matter of time before we bring Jason to his knees." "In?" Fiona looked at Ethan's face. "In on what?" "The inner circle," he replied, looking at her face. "The circus." "Is that supposed to mean something to me?" Fiona raised an eyebrow. "It doesn't matter. All that matters is that we are bringing Jason to his knees," Ethan replied. "Well, you are not telling me anything. How do you plan on doing that?" Fiona folded her hands. "I need to head my grandfather's company. Jason is standing in the way of that, and not to mention my greedy uncle, who wants a bit too." " You mean, Henry?" Ethan asked. " Yes, after Jason is gone then I need to make him gone too. He is the only

Chapter: chapter forty eight "Are you alright?" Zack asked again, looking at Ethan, who was now standing rooted to a spot. "Is he?" Barnet looked at Zack, and both of them moved back again. Ethan. understood the message well and knew he had to save Selena. Benjamin was going to torture her with everything he has if she refused to spill the truth about where the serums were. "We need to go now! We are not having enough time to save her. The system. gave me just four days." Ethan said sweating. "The system? what system?" Barnet asked, looking at Zack, who was also confused. "What are you talking about, soldier boy?" Barnet asked, forcing the words out of his mouth. "We just need to say save her, and that is all that matters." Ethan replied "HHave you forgotten the part where you need to convince the men to join your cause?" Zack said scornfully, taking a seat."And don't forget you killed their fathers and sons. I wonder if they would like to join hands with a murderer." Barnet added Ethan's face changed as h

Chapter: chapter forty sevenThe loud, desperate shout of Selena could be heard as she batted the monster on her own. "Leave her!" Ethan tried to speak, but the sharp pain he felt at the back of his head was too much. His vision was blurry as he got to his feet. He wanted to have a go at this monster, but then he couldn't. He fell to the ground and passed out.After what felt like eternity, Ethan felt like he was being rebooted. His eyes slowly flickered open, and he looked around. "Where the hell am I?" He said slowly, trying to look around. He noticed he couldn't move. Ethan tried to force himself out of the chair he sat on, but he couldn't. He needed some time to gather his strength. He remembered what happened, and the thought of what might have happened to Selena was all he could think about. The door opened, and Barnet walked in. "Ah, I can see you are awake. I treated your wounds," he said, slowly dragging a seat towards Ethan's front. Ethan said nothing but simply stared at him; he remembered their last

Chapter: chapter forty six "You lost them? You lost them!" Benjamin shouted at one of the soldiers and gunned him down. "I went through the streets capturing the doctor. I did your jobs for you, and what did you do? You blew it right in my fave." "We are going to bring them back alive, Colonel." One of the soldiers said again"I don't know how you are going to do it, but I need the doctor back alive. I don't care about the zombie man now. What we need is the serum, and we need to stop with these failed experiments." Benjamin shouted One of the doctors entered, his clothes soiled with human blood. "What is the progress?" Benjamin gave his final orders to his men and walked towards the man whose face showed he was scared of telling Benjamin what the outcome of his work was. "I am sorry, Ben. I think we might need the ersuk after all. Is Selena here yet?" "How dare you ask me that when you cannot even get me what I want? Are you telling me that Selena is more important and knowledgeable than you?" Ben shouted,

Chapter: chapter forty five Jared's mind raced as Paul’s words echoed in his ears. He felt the weight of Benjamin’s command, but the temptation to solidify his power was gnawing at him. Kennedy represented a symbol of resistance, a hope for the community to cling to, and that was dangerous. Yet, Benjamin had been clear about maintaining order, not spilling unnecessary blood. If he went against Benjamin's orders, he might find himself in a worse position than Kennedy. He needed to play this smart. Jared turned to the rest of the soldiers still stationed around the community. “Listen up!” he barked. “We’ll follow Benjamin’s orders to the letter. We keep the peace, maintain control, and we don’t do anything without me saying so. Am I understood?” The soldiers nodded, but Jared could see doubt in some of their eyes. They had all seen Benjamin’s ruthlessness; they knew what he was capable of. Jared knew that to them, he was just another soldier, easily replaceable if he stepped out of line. He needed to gain their

Chapter: chapter forty four The loud gunshot woke Ethan up. He looked beside him and saw Rachel bleeding to the floor. "No, no!" He shouted, running towards his sister, but the soldiers had him pinned down. "Please, just this once. Give me a new mission. Please save her!" Ethan shouted like a madman. Many of the onlookers didn't know who he was talking to or what he was saying. Rachel gasped for breath as she looked at Ethan. "I am sorry, big brother; I didn't mean to be hostile towards you. I just...I just..." She was about to utter another word when life slowly left her body. Ethan looked up, and his eyes glowed blue. "Do you give the serum to him? Is that why he is special, different?" Benjamin shouted at Selena. "No, I didn't. I don't have the serum. You need to believe me." She begged "Do I need to kill him before you understand? Is that what you really want?" Benjamin said with a smirk. The community was silent, and if a pin had dropped, they would have heard the sound. "Bring me that man." Jared walke

Chapter: chapter forty three "You don't have to do this." Kennedy shouted as Benjamin was about to shoot him in the head. "She is here, and I will lead you right to her." He pleaded "See, that wasn't so hard after all." Benjamin said with a smirk as he trailed after Kennedy, who was now shaking like a jellyfish. The door to the room burst open. Kennedy eyes scanned the room for Rachel and Whitmore. "Are you playing some game with me, boy?" Benjamin shouted, his voice laced with anger. Before Kennedy would say a word, he was shot in the knee. The loud groan of Kennedy could be heard. "Last chance, where is she?" Benjamin scowled "She is... she is supposed to be here. I swear, please." Kennedy knelt down crying. "Where the hell is she?" Benjamin looked around. "You need to run or else they are going to kill you." Rachel looked at Whitmore in the eyes. 'Besides, is your name Whitmore? That doesn't sound like a feminine name." "You can call me Selena. Whitmore is a family name. Is it going to leave your brother

Chapter: Chapter thirty Shadows UnveiledThe air was thick with the scent of damp concrete and sweat as Daniel’s heart raced. He had just barely escaped the ambush above, but now, as he stood frozen at the foot of the staircase, his mind spun with disbelief. The figure before him was all too familiar, though he never imagined seeing them here, of all places."James?" Daniel’s voice was low, a mixture of confusion and anger.The man who stood before them, his features partially hidden in the shadows, stepped into the dim light. His cold blue eyes met Daniel’s, and the faintest of smirks tugged at the corner of his lips."It’s been a long time, Daniel," James said, his tone casual, as though they were meeting in some ordinary, mundane place. "Too long, actually."Daniel’s stomach churned. This wasn’t the reunion he had imagined. James had once been his closest ally, the man who had fought beside him through thick and thin. But now, after everything that had happened—after Dominion’s betrayal and the mole withi

Lisa was frozen beside him, her breath shallow, but Daniel didn’t have the luxury of panic.The tall, menacing figure at the front of the group sneered, his eyes locking with Daniel’s. "We’ve been expecting you," he said, his voice smooth, almost mocking.The words hit Daniel like a punch to the gut. He had been so careful, so meticulous in his planning, but now it felt like the walls were closing in, the game shifting into a new and more dangerous phase."Put your weapons down," the man ordered, his voice calm but full of authority. "You’re not leaving this place alive."Daniel's eyes darted around the room, searching for an escape route. There had to be a way out.

Chapter: Chapter twenty seven Uncovering the MoleDaniel sat at his desk, staring at the glowing screen. The weight of the information in his inbox had settled heavily on his chest. The cryptic email from the whistleblower was a game changer, but it also led him to an unsettling realization: there was a mole in his own team. Someone was feeding information directly to Dominion.The thought gnawed at him, eating away at his confidence. How could someone he trusted betray him? The betrayal stung more than any attack from Dominion, because it came from within. But there was no time to wallow in disbelief. Daniel had to find the traitor—quickly.That night, Daniel could hardly sleep. The system buzzed in his mind, offering its usual guidance, but his thoughts kept returning to the growing list of potential suspects. Who among his team could it be? The trusted allies who had stood by him? Or someone else who had been playing both sides?The answer came soon enough. Daniel knew that he had to act fast before the mole ca

Chapter: chapter twenty six The Cyber BattleThe dim glow of his computer screen lit up Daniel's face as his heart raced. The system had warned him—this was bigger than just Dominion’s typical tactics. They had not only infiltrated his corporate network but were now zeroing in on his personal accounts, threatening everything he had worked for. The alarm on his computer blinked red, an ominous reminder that the battle was only beginning.“Lisa, get to the firewall,” Daniel barked, his voice steady despite the pressure mounting inside him. His fingers flew over the keyboard, tracing the lines of code and watching the attack unfold in real-time. “They’ve already bypassed the initial defenses.”Lisa was at his side in a second, her eyes scanning the digital battlefield. “I’m on it. But we need to act fast—they’re targeting the core servers. If they breach those, they’ll have access to everything: the company, the product, even the client data.”Daniel’s mind raced.

The stranger toyed with the device in his hand, a sly grin spreading across his face.“You’ve caused quite the stir, Daniel,” the man said, his voice echoing through the dimly lit space. “Dominion doesn’t take kindly to meddling.”Daniel’s mind raced as the system’s voice whispered in his ear:Threat analysis in progress. Escape routes identified. Proceed with caution.“What’s your angle?” Daniel asked, keeping his voice steady. “If you’re with Dominion, why lure me here instead of handling this quietly?”The man chuckled, stepping closer. “Let’s just say my employer enjoys theatrics. But you… you’ve made things personal.”The room grew silent as Daniel calculated his next move. He glanced at the exits the system had marked, but the stranger noticed his wandering eyes.“Don’t even think about it,” the man warned, raising the device.
