Adam punched the guard, sending him sprawling on the floor. Before the others inside could react to what was happening, Craig had rushed in firing them with tranquilizers which sent them to sleep immediately. Roberto was still in a daze when everywhere returned to it's original silence. He glanced at his unconscious men on the floor and back up at Adam. "What're you doing here?""To pick up my woman, what else?" Adam rushed to bang his table angrily. "Before that, I want to know who sent you?" He slowly walked around the chair to place his dagger against Roberto's neck. "What do you mean?" Roberto took in a shape intake of breath. "I've always known you weren't smart enough to pull off this sort of thing, Roberto! Tell me the truth before I slit your neck!""Ever since we were children, I've always hated Cleo's existence. Is that enough reason?"Adam gritted, twirling his chair to come face to face with him. "Enough reason to abduct her and start torturing her? Was it because I let

Adam left the hospital a few moments later, after making sure to delete the message on Cleo's phone. He intended to just have a confrontation with Gerald, asking why he choose to hunt him and his family. What exactly did Felix do to him? On his way to the parking lot, Adam caught sight of a man he wasn't expecting to see. It was the bald-headed Kent. One of the staffs at the Sales department whole had kicked out, but turned around to destroy all the photos in his office. Adam remained composed as he approached the man who was just alighting a taxi. "Mr Carson?" Kent was shocked to meet him, but he quickly hid it from his expression. "What are you going here?" He asked again when Adam didn't give him a reply, just a fierce expression. "I would like to have a word with you." Adam said so calmly that Kent was confused. "Alright." Kent quickly settled the driver before turning around to face Adam again. "Look, Mr Carson, I have nothing to do with you right now. Ever since y

Adam arrived at the Orange-Park Bar at exactly 6.50pm the following day. The lot was starting to get filled with all sorts of luxurious cars, even the lights inside shone of different colors, waiters and waitresses bustling around in preparation for the night. Adam had almost never been in a place like this before. Even from the locations and the air, he could tell that it was a high-end bar where a lot of illegal thing takes place. One even needed to book a reservation at the private rooms to get a spot. He had been totally unable to focus while he was at the office. Richard has been very hardworking these days. After he arrived from his vacation leave, he was able to channel more energy into working harder for the company. That was also probably cause Roberto and his goons were no longer around to frustrate his efforts. Adam’s jaw clenched. That reminds him, Roberto’s suspension was only left with barely two weeks. Two weeks until his cursed cousin returned to start causing issu

A loud uproar went up the crowd, but the MC kept on anyway. “This pistol was with him everywhere he went, up to when he was having his private bath, and it was used to help him escape death several times. This pistol was one of the first products of the UST Navy 20 years ago, made from the original steel and iron smelted together. Also having a pack of light-weight lead bullets, one of the rarest in the world.” The noise erupted louder as everyone was excited. “Now, who is set to take this breath-taking piece home?” Adam waited until the MC announced the first price. "This mind-boggling pistol will be going for 19 million dollars. Are there others willing to vy further?" "30 million dollars!" A man immediately raised his placard. "40 million dollars!" Another shouted. "I'll gladly drop 50 million dollars for that pistol!" In no time, the price went up to 100 million, making it the first item at the auction crossing that mark tonight. The MC was already trembling with excitem

Meanwhile Adam's ears were ringing as he drove his car back home. He could imagine the amount of rage pumping through that man's blood right now. "Bastard! Next time you try to hurt my family, I'll end your life that day!" He arrived home after ascertaining that no one was following him. To be safe, Adam parked the car outside the estate and changed the car plate number without anyone noticing. It was a rented car anyway, the owner would come pick it here by tomorrow. He trekked the remaining distance to his house, arriving to meet Cleo and Amelia having a good time watching cartoons while munching on snacks. "Big bro, where are you coming from?" Amelia's sudden question caught him off guard. "Oh, Princess. I...I went out with some friends." Adam scratches his head, stuttering. Cleo threw him a look, but didn't say a word. "Really? Did you have fun?" Amelia smiled. Adam was pleased that he wanted to know, so he settled on the couch beside her and explained how the auct
