The day William arrived at The Fallon Enterprise for the second time, he was properly welcomed, as if he was a new executive about to join the board of directors. The meeting William had with them this time was held in the grand and exclusive meeting room meant only for the board of directors. Stacy was also allowed to be present as she’s known to offer the same course and, thus, has the most familiarity with William out of the entire Fallon family.Mr. Fallon glared at William. “Young man, you really made me go through so much trouble just to get you here for the second time. You know that your audacious behavior can warrant trouble for you if you’re not careful.”William smiled professionally, giving the older man a head nod. “I’m aware. But I did what I did because I was confident in what I had provided you. Also, you would have never gone through these troubles to get me here if you didn’t verify what I had gifted you, right?”Mr. Fallon stared coldly at William for a minute,

Augustin McArthur was currently in a bad mood as he spoke to the police department on the phone. “Are you deaf? Do you not hear the orders out of my mouth right now?! I want you to release the young man by the name of Drake Fisher right now!”The voice on the other end of the call let out a sigh. “Sir McArthur, please, know well that I completely hear you. Unfortunately, things have to remain as I’ve said. Our hands at the police department are tied. We’ve got orders from above to keep that young man there unless his innocence is proven. There’s really nothing I can do about it.”“And what the hell am I supposed to do with that?!” Augustin burst out in greater anger, raising his voice to fill his private office. “Are you guys kidding me right now?! I pay you and your underlings to discreetly carry out my orders. Ma’am, I hope you haven’t forgotten that I’m the primary reason you made it where you are now.”“Sir Augustin, you’re not really hearing me either.” The head of police on the

William didn’t like this idea for some reason. He felt deep within his heart that something was wrong here. “Bo, wait!” Unfortunately, Abigail was out to take down the unlucky bastards who dared to target her young master before he could even stop her. A few seconds later, the sounds of gunshots intensified as William kept his head ducked despite his windshields holding up. He could tell at this point that Abigail and her team – the seven second-in-commands – had engaged these unknown threats. But then a minute had passed by and the right was still going on.This was when the worry in William’s heart was spurred. Abigail and her team are McArthur bodyguards with altered abilities that wouldn’t be considered normal by any means. Knowing this, they should have handled whatever situation this was and whoever was responsible. Yet, the fact that this battle was still going on was troublesome. This meant that Abigail and her team were facing a group of armed people who could somehow ma

Augustin frowned at this scene, wondering who was here to interfere with his dealings. These new cars soon made their stops and the helicopter in the distance also landed. People began to exit and descend both the cars and the helicopter.“Who is this? Who has the audacity to interrupt me?” Augustin growled out as he was discontent.“Sir, we’ve got company from the McArthur estate.” The McArthur bodyguard in charge of Augustin’s team spoke in his master’s ear. He could easily recognize that those cars and that helicopter had the most familiar insignia despite the stark darkness. After all, his eyesight was far better than Augustin’s.Hearing this, Augustin froze a bit, wondering why exactly someone from the McArthur estate was here.“Master Augustin, don’t you think you’re a little too far from home right now?”William’s heart jerked slightly as he recognized this gentle yet firm voice. He turned his gaze to find the familiar figure of Mike Barathea walking into the light created

Once William got back to his private estate, he ordered Abigail and the seven second-in-commands McArthur bodyguards to go and rest. He felt bad for them honestly. He could tell that all eight McArthur bodyguards blamed themselves for being unable to protect their young master.“Young Master William, my team and I have shamefully failed to protect you. Whatever punishment you wish to serve us, we will gladly accept it. Though nothing can overwhelm the present self-disappointment we feel right now.”When those words were spoken, William could see the look in Abigail’s eyes, especially, conveying how bad she and the seven second-in-commands felt for failing to protect him against Augustin and his bodyguards. Though William understood that his bodyguards were simply greatly outnumbered, not to mention that they were outnumbered by other McArthur bodyguards, possessing the same physical prowess just like them.That evening, he reached out to the Intelligence Unit at the McArthur Est
