“Are you aware of the implications of what you have just done? !” Lily bellowed, her eyes brimming with anger Andrew snapped his gaze off Lily and ignored her completely, not even her would stop him from dealing with Mr Vain Without delay, be grabbed second Mr Vain’s hand Crack! The sound of another broken bone filled the air as Mr Vain screamed in pain “Stop it! Did I do wrong to invite you to my birthday?” Andrew frowned upon hearing her words “Yes you did wrong, especially with the motive you had in mind” “Why do you mean! Are you out of your mind? Why do you derive joy from causing trouble and putting other people in danger?” “What did you do when Benita was In danger?”Andrew snapped and immediately Lily went silent “I… I..she was the one who brought this upon herself” Lily lied through gritted teeth, her heart bursting with anger at why this perfect plan of hers didn't go smoothly In fact it did, but this bad luck had to destroy it all” she thought ,glaring at And
The club room immediately broke out into an uproar as everyone began murmuring in fear. Everyone had heard enough stories about the battle beast—Mr Karim. The ruthless man who unalives his opponents the moment he defeats them . The man who shows no mercy to anyone—not even to kids. Mr Karim was widely known for being fearless and unbeatable , he feared no one —not even the war general himself or the president. No one dared offend him,because anyone who did, had indirectly signed his /her death certificate—a slow and painful death at that! Literally everyone in the room had heard horrible stories about this man, and never dreamt that a day would come when they would be in the same room with the devil himself. But today of all days, a common man had woken a sleeping lion by touching it'd tail and they too weren't expemted from the fury that would be unleashed. “Do you think your martial arts skills will save you this time around?you have signed a death warrant without knowing “One o
“Mr Karim has arrived!” A voice announced, and immediately, silence fell in the club room, thick and heavy. A sense of dread hovered over the room as Mr Karim strutted into the dimly lit room. His cold gaze swept across the room, but he could barely see the faces of the people in the room. “Where is that bastard?! Mr Karim barked, his thunderous voice knocking waves of fear into everyone in the room, except Andrew. Vain’s bloody face stretched into an evil smirk as he sprang up immediately,and walked to where his uncle stood “He's over there uncle”Vain grinned eerily as he pointed towards a calm looking Andrew. And at the same time,Benita felt a cold chill ran down her spine the moment Vain pointed towards Andrew. Her heart began pounding furiously against her chest as she trembled in fear. She couldn't bear the thought of losing Andrew, because that was what would eventually happen. There was no way he'd escape Mr.Karim’s wrath—no one has ever did ! A sense of guilt envelop
“How is this possible?” Mr. Karim muttered, his eyes wide in shock as his body trembled in extreme fear Never in his wildest dreams did he imagine that he would be standing face to face with his nemesis, after 7 whole years had passed. This man standing right in front of him was a beast in the battlefield—and he had experienced it first hand. He was the youngest back then, but his strength was like that of ten generals combined. In his 30 years of combat, this was the only man that had ever defeated him , and he did it with ease. But 7 years ago, he disappeared suddenly and people began to circulate that he was dead. Mr. Karim was the most overjoyed because his competition was gone, and ever since then, he had retained his position of being the unbeatable. But right now, he was standing face to face with the same man that he can wipe him off without breaking a sweat. So why would he not be terrified? Mr. Baron spared his life 7 years ago—would he be merciful to do that again
Lily's face stretched into a smile as she continued. “ Without Mike, we all would have been in big trouble ” Lily said, as she gestured for Mike to come out Murmurs of disapproval erupted in the room as Mike rose from his chair,strutting towards the center of the room, a smug smile sampled on his face. “What of Mr. Baron ? Didn't you see the way Mr Karim respected and pleaded with him?isn't it clear that Mr Karim spared us because of him? One of the guest voiced out, causing the rest to nod in affirmation They all had watched everything unfold, and it was clear who caused Mr Karim to kneel and bow In surrender. Lily's face scrunched up in utter disgust as she watched her friends take sides with Andrew “Common you guys, don't tell me you believe that? Remember I was married to that punk for 3 years and I know how deceitful he is and he used that same trick on Mr. Karim” Lily announced, causing a loud gasp to echo in the room, as everyone snapped their gazes to Andrew When Lily s
As Andrew and Benita drove home in silence, Benita decided to voice out what had been on her mind even before they went for the party. “Andrew, I'm thinking of moving back to Nashville” Benita announced, breaking the silence between them. “Really?”Andrew raised his eyebrows questioningly his eyes still focused on the road “Yes, I want my assistant, Anna, to be incharge of the ceal vile branch. While I move here to take care of the new branch . You know I have been wanting to move, I think now is the best time ”. She said, her heart up in her throat because there was still something she wanted to ask of him “That's a nice idea and I think there are more opportunities here in Nashville”Andrew said, nodding his head in approval “Uhmm… actually there is something else I want to ask from you” Benita said In a low tone “Go on, I'm all ears”Andrew urged , taking a quick glance at Benita “You know…. I'm still sorting out some stuff, so I can't really focus on house hunting
The next day, Andrew, dressed in his plain polo and jeans, and drove to cassmic mall to get the imported toy he promised Winnie months ago. He was naturally in a good mood because he knew the day was going to be a good one, so for the first time In a while, his face was bright, void of its usually cold countenance. As he got to the mall, he packed his car and headed inside, thankfully the cue wasn't much, so he joined, waiting for his turn. When it got to his turn, he walked to the front of the counter “ Welcome sir how can I help you?” the blonde attendant asked politely “ I'm here to pick up the Kariton dollhouse castle” Andrew said, stretching out his card to the blonde lady “The kariton dollhouse?! ” The attendant repeated after him, her eyes slightly widening in shock and surprise. She couldn't believe her ears or was it her eyes? Since yesterday the kariton dollhouse arrived, the workers in the mall had been on their toes, waiting to see the owner of the most expensive to
The moment those words fell out from the woman's lips, Andrew furrowed his brow in annoyance , he couldn't believe that this was the silly reason this woman had called him. To waste his time?! “If you want the dollhouse, you'd have to place an order, that's how it's done. If this is the reason you called, then I see no reason to remain here” Andrew said casually, turning his back to leave but immediately, two burly men jumped to his front, blocking his path Mrs Choi rose to her feet, her eyes flashing with anger as she glowered at Andrew “So,you think because I brought myself so low to talk to you, you think you can vomit rubbish in front of me, right? Are you insane?!” She yelled, drawing the attention of the people close by, as they started to gather round, curious to know what was going on. Andrew ignored the raging woman as he faced the two men blocking his path “Do your self the favour and get out of my way this minute! ”he sneered, but the men remained in the same posi
“I'll take it for fifty thousand dollars.” A voice started the bidding from the back.The room turned their heads to the head bald headed man and burst into a loud guffaw "You are not supposed to be here ,brokeass" "Go get food with that petty change you just mentioned"The man lowered his head in shame as the men shaded and made mockery of him .Andrew watched the display of everyone and sighed. There was nothing he hated more than being in the company of old men like this, who seemed to think life revolved around them and everyone else worked for them. “Hundred thousand dollars.” Someone else yelled loudly. “You should use your money to take a trip to the Maldives, poor one. I'll take it for two hundred thousand dollars.” An extravagantly dressed man yelled and the room became filled with laughter as the previous bidder bowed his head in shame. Andrew watched the man walk out of the room with his head bowed. He smiled at the sight. That man was the same person who called him wr
Mr Koin began “Now ,It's time for the Rootox herb. We will start taking biddings for now.” he announced with a grin on his face Andrew's heart skipped at the mention of the rootox herb ,he couldn't believe his ears .The same herb he believed had gone extinct ? Andrew thought, his face enveloping into a smile .This had just made his day ,and he couldn't wait to lay his hands on the herb “Before we commence ,this is an additional information ,as usual everyone present in this room know the rules . Any herb that isn't available physically,we bid for the location instead” Mr Koin said and Andrew heaved a sigh , he had hoped it was the herb itself and not the location ,but regardless ,it was still the same .Now he knew it hadn't gone extinct , he'd do whatever it took to lay his hands on that herb .The room was dead silent as everyone's gaze remained glued to the figure standing on the stage,waiting a go ahead order to start the bidding .“ Now ,shall we begin?” Mr Koin said aloud
An hour later, Andrew's car screeched to a stop in front of a clubhouse. The lights outside were bright and inviting and Andrew tried to take in the environment of the club house before stepping out of the car . Andrew heaved a deep sigh as he walked towards the entrance. Though he still had doubts that he would be able to get the Rootox herb here ,but deep down ,he hoped to be proved wrong . Benita’s life depended on this herb ,and there was nothing he wanted more than laying his hands on the damn herb . “Donchester.” Andrew whispered the name of the club house to himself. He tried to note as many details about the place as he could. If this place is capable of leading him to the Rootox herb , then he'd give it a try . Andrew concluded and made his way to the entrance “Hold on . What are you here for ?” The security guard held out his hand ,obstructing Andrew from going in. “I'm here for an auction” Andrew replied calmly,ignoring the man's spiteful gaze “Can I see
At the third ring ,he picked up . “ Tiffany, are you okay ?What is it this time ?” Mr Queens asked ,his voice laced with concern . “I'm okay Dad. I just need your help with something ” Tiffany said in a low tone “What is it ,princess ?” “Daddy ,Andrew is in search of some herb and he needs it urgently . It's very important ,I thought to ask you, maybe you might know someone who knows about it ” Tiffany said desperately Mr Queen paused briefly ,ransacking his brain “ There is this place I know . I have been there once. I think he might be able to get what he is looking for there ” “Really Dad ?” Tiffany asked ,her voice laced with excitement as she threw a “I told you” glance at Andrew “ It's an underground clubhouse on New town road” Mr Queen said,divulging more information to Tiffany . After 10 minutes of being on the phone,they finally hung up Tiffany turned to face Andrew ,a bright smile plastered across her face “ You see Andrew ,I told ya!” Tiffany said Jubil
All through the drive to Tiffany's house, Andrew could not stop thinking about Benita and what the doctor said. He had called everyone he thought would be able to find the herb but he couldn't find any help. Lines of worry creased his face as he drove and he spoke so little to Tiffany who was trying to get into a conversation with him. All he could think of was Benita dying after she saved his life and gave him a second chance in life. Tiffany noticed that Andrew was distracted and was surprised to see that. Andrew happened to be the most focused and unbothered person she knew so seeing him this way not only surprised her but made her worried as well. What could he be thinking about? She asked herself. After a while, Tiffany could no longer put up with the strange silence that had filled the car. She tried to force the words out but nothing comes. “Andrew, are you okay?” She asked after a long conflict in her mind. Andrew glanced at her and let out a small smile. “Yes, I'm fine.
Somewhere in Nashville city ,a young lady was seen In a damp room with little light seeping from a small hole on the wall . “Somebody help! Tiffany yelled as she struggled in the chair she was tied to , she began stomping her feet on the floor, as she tried to free herself from the rope she was bound to. "Is anyone there?" Tiffany continued shouting ,her heart racing with dread. Suddenly , the sound of the door opening and slamming shut, echoed in the empty damp room " Who are you? Why am I here?!" Tiffany bellowed But the tall lean man who had just walked in kept her quiet despite her loud screams "Why do you have me here ?" Tiffany continued screaming ,as her heart beat with fear " Shut the fuck up!" The gruff voice roared, slamming the only furniture in the damp and dimly lit room ,the shaky wooden table creaked, collapsing on the floor "Why am I here? What do you have with me?!" Tiffany yelled, struggling with the rope "Please release me I have done wrong !" The
Their eyes were filled with disbelief and trepidation as they watched Andrew amble in.None of them made a move cause it looked like they were standing face to face with a ghost .“H… How are you still alive? One of the men who had seen Andrew's motorbike caught up in flames eventually asked ,his voice trembling with fear “He fell off that cliff I am sure!”another added “Me too!”“I saw that fire, there's no way he's alive”.They argued not quite believing who was standing before them “Any more words from you guys ,I will release a bullet to that hole on your damn face!”Mr prime growled,his eyes brimming with rage but beneath he was scared .“What are you seeing ?Does it look like he died ? Mr prime barked Andrew smirked menacingly as he watched their commotion , he never fell off the cliff. He was the protagonist of a book, so why would he die? They just caught him off guard,but no harm was done.He was quick enough to hang on a broken branch. He heard their laughter, their che
Mr prime was seen pacing around restlessly in his office ,“Are they done?” He asked over the phone “Yes sir” a man responded,and continued divulging more information “They made sure to cut the brake lines ” “How about the call?”Mr prime asked eagerly “Perfectly done sir” the man replied confidently “Bravo !” Mr. Prime tapped his airpod and the line went dead “Perfecto !” He smacked his hands together,his face covered in a sinister smirk His problems were finally over! A little over 30 minutes ago ,a spy he had sent to monitor the ambush on Andrew came back with the bad news ,none of his strongest men survived . But in every bad news ,there was always good news hidden beneath and Mr prime was the kind of man to dig it out . After getting the bad news ,another plan was set in motion immediately . If Andrew's girlfriend had been stabbed with a deadly poison ,that meant he'd be in need of the herb his spy revealed would be the only solution to saving her life.
Andrew rushed to where Benita was tied. “Are you okay?” He asked and gently pulled off blind fold and tape “ I'm okay Andrew . Thank you for always coming to my aid” Benita said,flashing a small smile to Andrew Andrew returned the gesture “It's no big deal. How did this happen ?” He asked curiously “They ambushed me when I opened the door ,thinking it was you” “Shit !” Andrew hissed In annoyance .He had been too careless and almost risked Benita’s life . For someone who had lots of enemies ,he was supposed to have dozens of security guards littered around .But he didn't bother about that because he was capable of protecting himself but now Benita was around ,he should have known better. “Andrew it's not your fault ,you can't be here 24/7 to protect me ,you have other things to do” Benita said comfortingly “We are moving out of here tonight. I have a lot going on and can't assure your safety here,you will stay somewhere safer for the meantime ” Andrew announced ,untying the tig
