Even though she did not say anything, from the look in her eyes, Rhys could also tell that Elena wanted one of the villas but unlike Jonathan, she did not clamor for it. The auctioneer continued. “But this villas would be gifted to the person in VIP room number one.”The auctioneer words made many people angry, they didn’t like this sort of behavior as it went against the whole concept of an auction. But no one opened their mouths to voice their opinions and dissatisfaction first. Why? Because they needed to know who the person sitting in room number one was before saying anything. There were quite a lot of experienced people who had seen enough in life to not make a mistake of challenge someone without knowing their true identity.But one person who didn’t think hard did not place a filter in his mouth and said. “Auctioneer this behavior of yours is inappropriate, are you sure you are not going to give the McAuliffe family some face.” Even if the auction went on, Callan knew that th

At that moment, she began to wish that it was Rhys that was sitting before her, sure, he had never taken her on a date and mostly tested her as a friend when they were together. She wondered how Rhys was like if he truly loved her. Elena was lost in her thought and didn’t hear most of the words that Nathaniel was saying. “I hope you can forgive me for today, Elena. Some of my work related stuffs were nearly stolen moments ago and I got worried about it.”Elena snapped out of her thoughts at the right time to hear the last statement he was making. She tried not to cringe at the mention of her name coming from his mouth, yesterday it was alright but at that moment it was off. “It’s fine.” “Are you sure? I can understand if you want to leave, we can catch up some other time.”Hell noElena was already tired of hearing him speak, she heard her notification sound and casually glanced at her phone. Her calm expression suddenly switched to shock before distress. She dialed a number and rai

The clock ticked slowly, its hands was inching towards noon, a man suddenly walked out of his bedroom, he called out a name angrily but there was only silence. He called multiple names but there was no response. Then he got angry and began to yell.Then, a figure dressed in black with a cap which blocked his face from view appeared before him, The man couldn’t see the intruder’s face, but he saw that the intruder was carrying a gun. His mind raced, thoughts tumbling over each other. He tried to speak, but the words wouldn’t come. The figure was standing in front of him, the barrel of the gun aimed towards his heart.Fear was rising in his chest and the man could feel his body tensing and his muscles stiffening. At that moment he knew that there was no way he could avoid death so his only choice was just to face it bravely. He closed his eyes, waiting for the inevitable, he heard the unmistakable sound of a gun cocking. Suddenly, a blinding pain shot through his chest. He felt his li

Upon stepping out of the well concealed building, Christopher could not describe what he had seen. Even though the second test subject had not lasted for more than an hour, the experiment was still successful and it had broadened his mind, opening his eyes to various possibilities. He touched his Jack a few times, smiled as he felt the small bottles hidden within it. With a high price, he had purchased a few of the serums that can immediately kill a human and he had the perfect set of people to test it on. Upon arriving at the Fernandez mansion, he found his son Atlas, standing outside the mansion. He was scolding one of the bodyguards with him but the other party simply looked away, ignoring him.“What is this meaning of this attitude? Is this the way you treated a direct member of the family?” Christopher didn’t care to know what had transpired, all he was concerned about was his son Atlas.“How can you scold me without knowing what happened?” The bodyguard did not stay silent and

It wasn’t easy to tell whether it was because his uncle begged him or it was of his own choice, Rhys simply let go of Atlas, allowing him to fall on the ground like a pack of card. “You!” Christopher hissed and pointed at Rhys as he saw his son gasping out loud for breath.“Yes uncle,” Rhys turned towards his uncle and said with a voice that was so sweet that it caused goosebumps to appear all over Christopher’s body. The smile on Rhys face chilled him to the bones. “You asked me to let him go and that’s what I did.” “Why do you have to attack your cousin that way? You both are like brothers.” He instantly changed his words in order not to infuriate Rhys any further. Seeing as his son was still within Rhys reach, there was no doubt that he might simply attack Atlas again if he was offended.“What are you trying to say uncle? He is my cousin but it wouldn’t warrant him being rude to me before my subordinates. I am the heir of the family, he should know his place.” Rhys started to w
