“I dropped by the mansion and was told about the incident from Jackson,” Charles told Nathan after they shared a quick hug. “I’m so glad you guys were able to track her on time.” He added.“It’s Corrigan. I saw him.” Nathan said with his brows furrowing with rage. “He must have found out about our relationship so he tried to use her as bait.”“What are you going to do about him? At this point, I don’t think we should take things lightly. If he dared to show his face then he shouldn’t be spared. Enough of all his deadly games. Charles said with his arms folded across his chest.“Right now, Avery is my priority. Once she’s back on her feet, I’ll unleash hell on Corrigan.” Nathan replied.Charles sighed. “How’s she by the way?”Nathan was about to speak when he saw a red-haired dressed in a nurse uniform walking toward them. He immediately recognized her as the nurse assigned to Avery’s private ward. She walked up to them.“Seems like your patient is a strong one. She’s awake. She didn’t

“Are you ready?” Mike demanded after stepping into Nathan’s room.Nathan was standing before his dressing mirror. While his left hand was tucked inside his pocket, he was stroking his face mask with his free hand.“What’s the time?” He turned to Mike.“It’s 7:30.”“That’s thirty minutes above the stipulated time.” Nathan hinted and brushed off his jacket. He was dressed in a black exotic velvet suit.“Yeah and if our predictions are correct, they should be expecting us by now.” Mike implied with a twinkle.Nathan gave repeated nods. “I’ll get my phone and then we can leave.”“And I’ll go to inspect the convoy,” Mike said and went out.A few minutes later, Nathan joined Mike outside. There was a fleet of cars waiting for him.“We are sticking to the plan,” Mike said and presented one of the escort vehicles to Nathan.Nathan moved to the car and hopped inside. Mike joined him. They drove away with the rest of the convoy.A few minutes after the Alcantara vehicles took off, they were int

“I’m not surprised by your filthy attitude.” Edgar spat. Corrigan clenched his fists. “I needed no damn body. You so-called allies have always been useless anyway and that was why I wanted to discard all of you the moment I was done.”“You’re such a pathetic human Corrigan and at this point, I have no regrets for what I’ve done.” Edgar fired back and stood up. Corrigan’s eyes widened. “Really? You will flaunt your insolence at my face?”Edgar pointed at the door. “Just get the hell out of my house, Corrigan.”Corrigan broke into a wicked laugh. “Of course, I’m going to leave.”Edgar sighed and was about to drop on the couch when Corrigan moved closer to him. He quickly pulled out a pistol and pointed it at Edgar’s face. “What the fuck are you doing?”Corrigan chuckled and quickly put on a stern face. “You thought I was going to let you go just like that?”Edgar gasped. He tried to look through the door but Corrigan was blocking his path. “If you’re looking for those lousy men you

Nathan pulled out his laptop and crouched in a corner. He quickly went online to the stock market website and began to monitor the trade routes.After staring at the screen for a few minutes, he arched a brow. He hummed and went through the stocks all over again.A certain hotel company was topping the chart and it was evident that the company had been on top for the past three days. Nathan also realized that the investors were the same brands that invested in the second and third companies on the chart. It seemed as if a deal was reached to ensure certain investors patronized the current top three.Nathan noticed that Phoenix Media House was fourth on the chart which was quite unexpected. They hadn’t gone down the first position chart in a year. He was certain that if Mike infused more funds into the business, it would boost their profit and attract more investors. As a businessman, he had learned that maintaining a healthy reputation was one of the gateways to success, and as far as

The man looked down at Nathan. “Do you realize that this is your only chance to save yourself from this mess? It’s either you kill one of them or face my wrath.”Nathan held up the man’s stare. “If this is your judgment then I shall not abide by it.” He turned to Charles. “This is my best friend. I would never hurt him.”“And the girl?” the man fired back. “I would never hurt a stranger. A helpless girl to be precise.” Nathan replied. “I see.” The man gave repeated nods. “Take me instead.” Nathan continued. “I was the one who hit your son. My friend has nothing to do with this and the girl too so take me and free them.”The man took a step backward and began to stare at Nathan in astonishment. Meanwhile, his son was looking like a volcano that was about to erupt. He turned to his father. “If he wants to be a hero then so be it. I wouldn’t mind blowing his brains out.”The man walked up to his son and sent a strike on his left cheek. Everyone in the cell was astounded, especially t
