“What did you just say? Some man named Mr. Wang has taken over the situation, saying he is the one who sent men to destroy the building? Who the fuck is he?” Mr black ranged, his finger clasped around the phone almost crushing it into bits.Anger had seeped into his face, his other knuckles had turned white due to fist tightening, and it was only a tiny bit of resistance he was holding on to else he would have smashed something in the room. This should be how August should be reacting, but the tables have turned. What the heck was going on?“Sir, he owns the project. And just now, news has it that he gave apex corporation the sum of two billion dollars to work on a different project on that same piece of land.” The person replied on the phone.“Is he nuts or what? He is trying to butt in my business, huh? Then I will entertain myself a bit. Find me this Mr. Wang and every information about him. I want his contact now too. Do that quickly!” Mr. Black said before hanging up.“It seems s

The room became silent as footsteps could be heard coming towards the entrance. A gust of wind seemed to have blown in full force from that direction as well, causing the entire place to tremble.When the voice spoke, it felt like it seized the tension in the room, making it plummet to total heat even though there was air conditioning in the room. Slowly and steadily, two silhouettes emerged with imposing auras.Mr Black's eyes widened as he stared in the direction. His heart shivered violently inside his chest as though it was going to fly out of his mouth.“August…reed!” He gasped, while August smiled at him. This made his face look pale, as though he was drenched in a bucket of ice.“Happy to see me? Or are you too shocked to say anything?”’ August spoke as he walked further into the room. Mr. Wang was already jubilating, but that wasn’t the end. His family was held hostage by Mr. black men and any reckless move would warrant them to be killed.He couldn’t help but tell August so

Both August and David, who were boiling in anger, were forced to turn towards the door only to see a short man with a pot belly, clad in a suit standing by the door with two guards.His eyes swept around the room and having seen the bodies that were lying on the floor, he was able to confirm that his hunch was right. Earlier, when August and David walked in and didn’t seem to patronize the hotel officials to book a reservation, he could tell at once that they were here to make trouble.Also, the state in which Mr. Wang was when he hurriedly left the hotel was enough to alert them that something was going on. Having no choice, he came to check only to find such a sight.“Are…you guys criminals?” He asked again after being replied with silence.August didn’t say anything to him. He merely looked at David and gestured at him to leave with him before heading towards the door. But before he could get to it, the manager slid over and blocked his path.“You don’t expect me to watch you leave

“August, you are back?” Caroline smiled as she turned towards the door. It felt like it had been forever since she had since him. His face, his body, it felt like he was a piece of art she had yet to study, explore, and understand. Does this mean she was longing for him? Caroline quickly brushed the thoughts off and walked towards him.“I’ve been waiting for you. Where have you been?” Her hand slid into his and she intertwined their fingers. Her warmth surged unto him and all the anger he was feeling before washed away. He smiled and looked at her. “It seems you miss me so much.” He teased.“And I called you ten times. Did you care to call back or check your phone?” She stared daggers at him and her lips pouted.“Tch, perhaps he is seeing another woman outside.” Standing by the side, Mark was irritated by the sight. She was all chummy and smiling with him like he was someone who deserved her. He felt August was filth and never deserved to be around her or anywhere near the house. He

The receptionist looked at him and then over to Caroline, conflicted if she were to do as he told her in such times, or if there was supposed to be something else they should be focusing on. Such as calling these companies and pleading with them to hold off on their allegations.However, Caroline gave a nod, approving what August said to her.“I will be right back. I bring them over.” She said before walking out of the office.August looked at Caroline who was pale in fright and couldn’t help but tell her what was going on.“I think that indeed fake products are being supplied to your clients and one of these people knows about it.” He said, earning a curious gaze from her.“How? What do you mean?” She asked.“It’s simple. If fake products weren't given to clients, all of them won’t come at you at once. So it’s either the sales department has something to do with this or someone from the company is the backbone of what is going on.” August explained while she listened attentively.“Ok
