Victor stood on the toilet seat, then slowly squeezed himself to fit into the opening. He crawled through the roof hole and reached a spot where he jumped out and fell to the ground. This opening led to the exit of the building, which was what Hazel had used.Victor suddenly noticed footsteps running from a corner. This made him realize that Hazel was here recently, and it wasn’t long, so she could be the one running.Victor stood up from the ground, then bolted to the corner, and to his surprise it was Hazel and she was running.“Here you are,” Victor scoffed, then began chasing her."I can't stress my legs chasing you, woman. I'll just end you right here and now," Victor spoke under his breath, frustrated about how he could catch up with Hazel. She was very far from him, so he dipped his hand into his pocket to bring out his gun in order to end it quickly, but it wasn’t there."What?" Victor snapped, feeling no gun. "I kept it here! How the hell can't I find it? Could it be that it

Victor was in a state of confusion. He finds it difficult to return to his father without bringing news of Hazel’s elimination. Going back with bad news would make his father, Mr. Brooks, make the decision that Victor feared the most—ripping his properties away from him.Brooks had said those words to make Victor ruthless, ensuring that he would do anything to please him."How the hell can I tell Father about my failure? He would just do it," Victor mumbled with a trembling body, feeling pain all over himself.A thought ran through Victor’s mind. What if I lie to Father that Hazel was killed? After that, to erase all evidence of my actions, I can say I threw the body into the ocean."Yes, that's what I'll try to tell him. Hopefully, if he believes me and doesn't discover the truth, that means I'm safe from his wrath" Victor mumbled, the thought of a solution ran through his mind as he tried to piece in what to say that will cover up his ass. He then stood up from the ground, walked t

  After laying Victor back into his bed, Patel ran to Brooks, who was seated in his man cave room, to inform him about Victor’s condition—of him waking up. “Sorry, sir, for disturbing you,” Patel spoke calmly with a bow. “What’s the problem, Poppy?” Brooks responded with a sigh, sipping his whiskey. “Victor just woke up. I tried to stop him from moving, but he was persistent and ignored my words. After trying to walk he…” “Shut up.” Patel paused. She tried to explain, but she was shushed by Brook's cold voice. “So, what do you want me to do now?” Brooks asked, his hands gr

  Morgan was so frustrated that, after he had made an agreement deal with Nathan, Nathan failed to execute it, and now Ethan was calling to return the fight to him. Morgan was seated in his room, his leg clicking against the ground as rage crept into his mind. He could no longer hold back—he had to confront Nathan about why Ethan was still alive. Enraged and infuriated, Morgan picked up his phone and called Nathan. "Hello, where are you? I need to have a conversation with you," Morgan spoke calmly on the phone, trying to make Nathan feel that everything was alright so he wouldn’t get suspicious. Morgan's previous plan was that after he was done helping Nathan, he would look for a way to end him or find a way to manipulate him in order to bend to his

  "Boss!" one of his men called, running to Ethan. He raised him up, then gently took him inside the bulletproof car they had come with. "Stay with us, boss. You will get treatment as soon as the doctor arrives," one of the men said—the one who had carried Ethan inside the bulletproof car. Within seconds, he drove Ethan out of the scene to safety. The masked man took Hazel to his mansion after rescuing her from Victor’s sabotage. She was offered a room and treated specially but remained under high surveillance. The masked man opened the door and walked into the room where Hazel was. As soon as Hazel saw him, she adjusted herself on the bed, and suddenly became very cautious. "But hold on a
