"Bruce, the plane Nicholas boarded got into a plane crash. Most just got injured, but only one was near death. It's Nicholas."Bruce could remember Archibald's words as he walked into the hall of the hospital Nicholas was rushed to. No one knew of the accident, including his family members, but Bruce knew that very soon the news would be everywhere.Before that happened, Bruce decided to pay Nicholas a little visit. Thanks to Archibald, he knew just where to find him.As he walked, he came across a mirror, then stopped by to have a good look at himself."I should give all my properties to charity and consider being a doctor," he muttered to himself with a big grin. "Damn! I look good wearing a lab coat."He adjusted his glasses and facemask. He heaved a sigh and moved away from the mirror to where Nicholas would be. He doubted if anyone would stop him from going into the room of a casualty. After all, according to the tag on the lab coat he picked from the lost and found of the hospit

Jade's car engine roared outside the house. It indicated that Jade was back from home. Bruce smiled to himself and got off his bed to get to the living room."One..." Bruce began to count down to ten. In ten seconds, he knew Jade would dash into the house in excitement and deliver good news."Two, Three, Four, Five..." He continued counting as he climbed down the stairs hurriedly."Six, seven, eight, nine..." He had gotten to the living room already."Ten."Jade dashed in with a big smile plastered on her face. She rushed to him and gave him a big hug, throwing Bruce off guard. She pulled away from the hug and looked upward at where the rooms were."Everybody," Jade called out excitedly. "I got a big contract with AAB groups."Jade screamed out at the top of her voice. Before the word, Jack Robinson could be said, everyone at home rushed down the stairs.For quite a very long time now, some members of Jade's family have tried to get a deal with AAB groups, but their efforts were all i

"You want our boss dead?" Bruce asked, feigning surprise.Bryan glared at him. "If you say those words out loud again, I'd want you dead too.""You've tried to kill me so many times but you couldn't. Do you think you can kill Astor Ace's son?""That old hag was the one who handled your case. If I was fully in control, you'd have been six feet below me by now," Bryan said. "You're no longer Bryan Athen, son of a billionaire. How do you intend to kill the richest man on earth?""Why do you think I'm here? I'm keeping my enemy close," Bryan replied with a smirk."You're not working here for the money, but to monitor B. A. Ace.""I'm here for both," Bryan said with a straight face. "Won't you invite your new friend over to your house for dinner?""Who is the new friend?""Who else? Me, of course. I told you a secret of mine and you told me yours."Bruce looked confused. "Which secret did I tell you?""That your mother-in-law hates you.""That's not a secret." Bruce looked up at Bryan's f

"If Jade is gone, her cousins would inherit Tekbos," Lucia lamented and Bruce stared at her in disgust. Her daughter was in danger yet the only thing she could think of was the title of the CEO of Tekbos. She grabbed the hands of her son, Cole. "How can this happen to her? She has not transferred the properties to you yet so why now?""You're thinking of properties when you should be thinking of a way to save your daughter from the danger she is already in," Bruce said angrily and Lucia glared at him."Her father is at the police station at the moment. He would get the police to find my Jade," Lucia lashed out.Without paying much attention to what Lucia had to say, Bruce dashed out of the room to Bryan.~~~Bruce stopped by Bryan's apartment and he found him seated at the entrance of his house like he had expected Bruce's visit."I knew you'd visit," Bryan said with a smile and Bruce glared at him."You think I have a hand in Jade's kidnap, don't you?""Where is Jade?""Kidnapping Ja

Standing before Bruce was someone who he had least expected. "You really underestimated me, didn't you?" Jade's kidnapper asked.Bruce frowned. The person before him was right. Bruce looked up at the face that gazed mockingly at him."Ms. Williamson," he started with a big frown on his face. "You made a very big mistake.""What mistake?" Ms. Williamson, the perpetrator of Jade's kidnap laughed at him mockingly. "I now own all you own, including the properties you snatched from Nicholas Athen, who you killed.""How do you know my face?" Bruce asked with a straight face. The only people who knew who he was was Mr. Archibald and himself. He knew Mr. Archibald well enough to know that he wouldn't reveal his identity to Ms. Williamson of all people."Let's say I followed the steps of your late enemy, Nicholas Athen," Ms. Williamson said with a big smile plastered on her face."Have you forgotten how I killed that enemy of mine?" Bruce asked with a smirk."That's what differs me from Nich
