Max's little sister, Gina, quickly got on her knees while pleading with her palms pressed together. “Please, let my brother go! I'm begging you! He's really not the spy you're looking for! Whatever you think he did, I promise that you've got the wrong person!”While mother and daughter are trying their best to get past those armed men holding them back, the lanky uncle, Jeremiah, has become sober after witnessing his nephew be brutally beaten up. Still, he remained huddled in the corner he was put in, not willing to risk being beaten up as well.Getting pissed by the distraction, Jude has his men take all three family members to another room and lick them up there. He couldn't hear the yelling and thrashing.After being kicked in the only toilet in the entire building, Gina and her mother kept trying to break out. Jeremiah, though, remained as unbothered to join as ever.“Uncle!” Gina took notice of this. “Uncle, don't just sit there. Are you just gonna sit there and let them beat my

Benjamin could tell that his best friend was in some sort of danger during the call. It wasn't because Max sent some secret code or anything. It was rather the tone he spoke with.At the time of the call, Benjamin had wrapped up his meeting with the CEO of Cortex Tech, Jonny Biggs. He ended this meeting with so much knowledge of what the AI assistant, Andy, is all about. Benjamin then had lunch with his grandfather and grandmother, still a bit in shock as he watched Hunter shower Theresa with praises from time to time. Once lunch was over, Benjamin and Theresa were ready to leave the prime estate and return to Sunspot Estate. The next day was a weekday and Benjamin had classes on Monday.Herbert didn't let Benjamin leave without bringing up an important matter. “Young Master Benjamin, I've been informed by Miss Locks of your residence. She reported that your means of transportation are still very limited.”Hunter tilted his head once he heard these words. “Herbert, don't tell me tha

“Yes, Sir. Um…. Master, about that matter.” Herbert suddenly became hesitant.“Yes?” Hunter finally shifted his gaze from his documents, and straight at his head butler. “Did you do what I ordered?”Herbert nodded his head. “Of course, Master. I talked to Young Master Benjamin about his parents, including where they are buried in this estate. I offered to take him there, so he could pay his respects to them, but…. Young Master Benjamin refused to see either of his parent’s graves.” Hunter saw the dejected expression on his head butler's face. “I see.” He couldn't help the pain that reached his heart. “I'm certain both Dallas and Caroline would be….sad that their son refuses to go greet them.”“I’m sorry, Master Hunter.” Herbert shook his head. “It's just that….Young Master seemed unbothered. There seemed to be no trace of love in there.”Hunter scoffed lightly. “Love for who? Those two were not even alive to raise him. Only the heavens know what would have seriously become him if Mrs

Benjamin's heart shook but he knew better than to show it. He immediately stuffed his hands in his pocket with an unbothered gaze.“Am I late to the party?”The attention of Jude, Brody, and the rest in the living room was now on this young, handsome man standing in the doorway.Brody's eyes widened. “It's him! He's here! Senior Jude, it's him!”Benjamin heard this and he quickly realised that this muscular man had to be the one in charge.Jude's gaze met Benjamin's and he began trying to decipher what emotional state the other was in. He was intrigued when he found nothing.“Oh? You hide yourself well.” A smile slowly stretched across Jude's face, and he pulled his gun back from Brody's head, forgetting about the annoying junior district keeper for the moment.Jude waved his hand, gesturing for Benjamin to come closer. “Come in! Come in!”Brody key out a sigh of relief at being spared. He had concluded himself as gone. But then he saw that Benjamin had arrived and quickly grabbed the

Jude had given the order. His men in the living room all pointed their guns at Benjamin and Anthony, about to pull the trigger.Unfortunately for Jude, none of these gang members were able to unload the bullets before their hands suddenly exploded in a bloody mess, forcing every single one of them to drop their firearms.This time though, Jude caught it clearly. The bullets had blasted through the roof and walls. It wasn't hard at this point to deduce that a group of unknown people had surrounded the house and were attacking them from outside, probably with the latest sniper rifles in their possession.What was even clearer was that these unknown shooters had to be working for Benjamin. Peeking from the low safety of the couch, Jude could see that Benjamin was still standing there. The young man's demeanor was as calm as ever.Jude was angry at the disadvantage he suddenly found himself in. “Men, we're surrounded!” He held onto his injured hand as he took cover behind the couch he was
