Chapter 211
“Yes” Jeremy muttered, “Leviathan sent some of his men over.” He added, getting up to have a better view of Brandon. “I'm just shocked we were unable to find nothing. It's like Brian Duke has a completely clean record and safe handling of his important files. All the files there are useless.” he said, frustrated to death. Jeremy stared at his palm and sighed, tracing the stitch with his fingers, “This would be another scar. I wonder what I'll name you.” he chuckled, finding the whole matter amusing. As a teenager, Leviathan had taken Jeremy under his wing. Becoming the Cabal 8 leader at that young age, Leviathan became greedy and dangerous; he always wanted everything for himself, even at the expense of another person's life. Adding to that, Leviathan had the habit of torturing people for his own advantage. Jeremy was quite surprised he had refused to torture Brian into telling him where the vault was. If Leviathan was used to torturing everyone to have his way, why not do it wi

Chapter 212
For the past few days, Brian had been busy clearing his schedule. After finding out about Richard's location, he had been looking forward to having a meeting with him. Finally, the perfect day for a meeting between two well respected and powerful men, and also a day to find out some certain secrets. The drive to the old man's house was smooth and peaceful. There was no disturbance and he also didn't notice any strange car tailing him. Last night, the special defense team of the Tycoon 6 arrived in Helix city. Brian relaxed because he finally had his family around him. People he could trust to protect his wife. Due to the way those men had broken into his house, Brian fired the previous bodyguards because he believed that some of them were spies; if not, none of them would have been granted entry into his home. Brian discarded the thoughts and focused on the road. After driving for a few more minutes, he finally arrived in front of the building. Compared to houses of the Tycoon 6 me

The tension in the air was palpable. Richard stared at Brian, shocked by the words that just rolled off his tongue. Stanley Duke was a highly respected man. A person Richard was quite familiar with. A few years ago, before his death, Richard had almost made him the leader of Cabal 8. Stanley was smarter, stronger and better than Leviathan. He was qualified in several ways. Coupled with the fact that he was the Tycoon 6 leader and is the gateway to the vault he has had eyes on for years, Richard was compelled to choose him instead of Leviathan. It was a fierce competition. Leviathan was a child Richard had trained as his own. They weren't related by blood but their bond was stronger than blood relatives. Richard was torn between family and friendship. Stanley was more qualified and so, Richard secretly planned to dethrone Leviathan. When Leviathan found out, he had told him it was merely because Stanley was in possession of the Vault; but a few weeks later, Stanley died mysterious

Couples sauntered in and out of the grandiose restaurant, taking advantage of the warmth due to the summer evening. Soft chatters and stifled laughter filled the air, making the atmosphere warm and cozy. The warm air brushed some hair off her face, and her lips curled up in a smile. With a tray in her hands, Ivy swiftly attended to a few guests who patiently waited for their turn. Exhausted by the day's event, she cleaned off her sweat and continued working. From the corner of her eyes, she saw a familiar figure strode into the restaurant. His chin held high. Due to his presence, a few ladies turned their necks, directing their gaze on the Greek god that just walked in. Brandon smiled and winked at the ladies, feeding them with his charm. One thing he learned about being an actor was to always pay attention to his fans. Brandon knew they weren't his fans, but ignoring them now might put his reputation at risk. Sighting Ivy, his eyes glinted coldly. For the past few days, he had s

Brandon's eyes widened in surprise. He parted his lips as his fingers caressed them, shock evident in his eyes. He leaned closer, wondering if Ivy had unknowingly spilled out the wrong name, but she didn't seem to be joking. Seeing Brandon's reaction, Ivy didn't need anyone to tell her that they were indeed working for the same person. Ivy gasped, her eyes filled with some certain expression. Anger, confusion and shock. She couldn't believe it. Leviathan had hired her a few weeks ago, just to monitor and track the movements of a certain person. They both knew that Brian, wasn't an easy person to deceive, but once it comes to being nice to poor people, Brian would easily fall for it. Then, they decided to use his weakness against him. Ivy would call herself a spy in the entertainment industry. Someone that was there for a certain reason. Ever since she was a child, she wasn't fond of the entertainment industry. Ivy hated the way everyone had to wear a mask to hide their true persona

Waking up the next morning, Ivy was still bothered about what she found out yesterday. The meeting with Brandon changed Ivy's perspective about Leviathan. Initially, she had thought Leviathan simply needed the vault for wealth, but it seemed like he needed it for something else. Several times, before stepping out for the day, Leviathan would call to remind her of her mission. Sometimes, she just wonders why he's so cruel and heartless. He was forcing her into something she wasn't interested in, and whenever she refused, he threatened to take her life. Ivy shook her head and got up to prepare for the filming scene she had today. Today was also the first step in her mission. Getting ready for work didn't take Ivy up to thirty minutes. Moments later, she reached the set and walked towards the director, Theodore. Sighting the actress who had captured his heart with her intense emotions, his lips curled up in a smile. Also, due to the fact that Brian had brought her himself, he was bo

The whole crew watched as Ivy was hurriedly placed into the car. Even though they all hated her, It wasn't to the extent of watching her die in their presence. They inwardly prayed for her, hoping she would survive whatever she was going through at the moment. Seated in his car, Brian checked on Ivy from time to time. He was the one who had brought her to the set. He couldn't allow anything to happen to her. The drive to the nearest hospital shouldn't take up to thirty minutes. However, the car suddenly came to a stop. “Luther, what's going on?” Brian asked, his brows raised in question. He leaned forward and watched as Luther got down from the car, “Master, you need to take a look at this. I think we'll be stuck here for a while.” Luther said, his voice laced with worry. Luther's words gave Brian an uneasy feeling. Immediately, he got down from the car and went to check what Luther was talking about. “Master, here.” Luther whispered, and Brian moved closer. Luther pointed at the

Hours later, Ivy was discharged and free to return home. Brian had returned back home, but he cleared all her bills before leaving. Since Ivy was completely fine, he had no reason to wait in the hospital anymore. As Ivy walked out of the hospital, her mind flashed back to what had occured in the car. She noticed that Brian was staring at her suspiciously. Ivy knew she had made a mistake. Immediately he entered the car, she adjusted her leg and kicked the paper further, just so he wouldn't see it. Who would have thought he had seen the movements of her legs? Ivy shook her head and focused on the road. The area was dark and deserted. Ivy had to walk for a while before she found a taxi. With her head resting on the window, she picked up her phone and was surprised to find a message from an unknown number. “Meet me at the restaurant close to where you're working for the time being. Hurry. I don't have time to waste.” Ivy needed no one to tell her it was Leviathan. First, he was the on

Chapter 219
Due to Leviathan's actions, Ivy flinched, fear evident in her eyes. Her gaze shifted to the broken glass and spilled wine. Leviathan had just tried to poison her because she wasn't with enough information. She tried to stand, but she realized there was this intense pain coming from her left leg. Ivy lowered her head to stare at her leg and sighed. It had been pierced by a glass. She averted her gaze and lowered her head. Ivy didn't dare to look at Leviathan. It was like giving herself a death sentence. Her body trembled slightly, but she refused to raise her head. Leviathan's anger was something no one would want to experience. With her head still lowered, Ivy’s eyes widened in surprise when she felt a firm hand wrapped around her neck. She tried to breathe, but it felt like all air had been sucked out of her lungs. Leviathan raised her up, his hands tightly wrapped around her neck. His eyes blazed with anger, and he badly felt like ending Ivy's life. After hiring her due to Brand

“When did you get here?” Ivy asked, her voice weak and hoarse. She raised her head to stare at Brandon, “Did you tail me? Followed my movements from the hospital?” she asked again, and Brandon's eyes flashed with an unknown expression. “How did you know?” he smiled, tilting his head as he stared at her. “I noticed a car following me, but I thought it was Leviathan trying to make sure I came to the venue.” she replied as she held his hands to drag herself up. A small yelp escaped her lips as her back wracked with pain. She fought the tears in her eyes and flashed a smile, “Thank you for coming, Brandon, but you could have done something.” she said, rolling her eyes in anger. “Hello. The restaurant was locked from the outside. I was only allowed to go a few minutes after Leviathan left.” Brandon explained. His gaze landed on the red mark on her neck, “Did he really do this to you?” Ivy nodded, tracing the mark with her hands. “Yes. He's really an animal. He didn't even spare a woman.
