Although the night was dark, Jack could still make out the shadowy figures of the people around him. He was certain that these people were four in number, they looked huge and the smallest among them was a skinny dude who was still around 6 feet tall. Jack knew there was no way he could fight these guys, so he tried so much to refrain and not fight back, allowing them to do what they wanted and leave. Jack groaned in pain as two punches landed on his face sending him to the ground. They had caught him unaware, not even giving him a chance to move or defend himself.After the first two blows, Jack was able to brace his head, allowing the rest of the blows to hit him on his body rather than his head. “What do you have with you?” one of the men yelled, his voice was thick and audible. The rest of them began to search and empty Jack's pockets, turning them in and out. They took all the cash they could find, jack was lucky he was
It was a Monday morning, and the weather was brighter and sunnier than usual. At lance towers, Mr Lance was sitting in his office busy with some paperwork. After the boat cruise, he hasn't spoken to Damion yet, somehow Mr Lance just couldn't wait for all this to be over so that Damion can reveal his true identity and take over the affairs in lance towers. The workload was becoming too much of a stress for Mr. Lance. As he sat in his office, his eyes scanning through one of her files on his desk, A knock came on the door “Come in, it's not locked” Mr Lance announced without taking his eyes off the file. The door pushed open and an average-height skinny woman walked in, she was wearing a black suit accompanied with black heels and her hair was styled into a ponytail tail, which dangled behind her as she moved. She was holding a fake in her hand. “Good day sir” the woman
Davina watched as her life flashed before her eyes, it all happened so fast, one second she was about to rescue a victim whom she thought had just been involved in a fatal accident and then in the next, she had a gun pressed to her head. “Move backward” the man behind the gun commanded as he got to his feet. “Please don't shoot, I will just get back to the car and we will leave, I will look like we have never heard, please I beg you “ Davina pleaded, she was visibly shaking. She had never had a gun pointed directly at her before, she was so scared that even the words coming out of her mouth were hard to comprehend. The man laughed like a lunatic “Look around you, do you think this is a coincidence?” Davina gently looked around and that was when she noticed that about two other men holding guns had arrived, which meant there were now four men with guns in total. Davina's eye
After the sudden call from Davina, Damion quickly spoke to the cab man, telling him to take him to a different location. Even with his new status as the assistant director of the Lance Towers, Damion still decided to continue taking cabs instead of driving his car himself. As the cab drove through the street, the weather was getting cloudy and darker with each passing minute, this was not because it was nighttime but because it was about to rain. Frightening thunderstorms could already be heard, Damion had asked Davina about all that she could see around her, he had even asked her what the outside part of the wear house looked like. With her description, it will be a little bit difficult for him to locate the place, but somehow the description of this place seemed familiar, it felt like he had seen this place before. The more he thought about it, the more familiar but felt, that was when it eventually clicked in Damion's head. He quickly brought out his phone and began going
Davina has never been so happy to see Damion, seeing him standing at the door just brought hope to her. As he stepped into the room, Damion could see Jack tied to the chair, he had blood drooling from his mouth, there was a lot of blood on him, and his shirt was already stained with his blood, the sight made Damion's heartache. Damion walked towards Davina “Let's untie you first”. After untying Davina, she wasn't beaten so she was still very much ok, they both rushed over and untied Jack, and with Jack's hands placed on both Damion and Davina's shoulders, they walked towards the door. It was still raining heavily outside, the storms still sounded occasionally. “Hang on Jack, we are taking you to the hospital,” Davina said. At this point Jack had a lifeless look on him, it felt like he was going to pass out anytime from now. “They rushed to the vehicle and Damion took the wheel while Davina sat in the backseat together with Jack. They arrived at the hospital, and Jack was
Dashing out of the house into the night which was enveloped by the moon up in the sky, which illuminated the neighborhood giving a clearer view of the surroundings, Scott could see Bella ahead, rushing towards her vehicle. Scott wasn't pleased with how the dinner had turned out, he wasn't expecting his dad to go that far, far to the point of asking Bella such personal and uncomfortable questions. Scott increased his pace and also continued calling Bella's name, hoping that she would answer him or probably stop to listen to whatever he had to say. It was clear that she could hear him, but was too pissed to halt. Eventually, his hope came to life as Bella paused just beside her vehicle and turned to Scott who was panting heavily with his hands resting on his knees. “What is it, Scott? Why are you following me?” Bella questioned, her face enveloped by anger. “Please I need you to hear me out
Inside the Lance towers, in one of the offices that happened to belong to me Lance Erickson, he could be seen pacing around the room. His mind was elsewhere, occupied by the impending threat or danger which was about to befall the company. A company that took a lot to build and nurture up to this point. In his head, a series of questions skimmed through, he just couldn't place or wrap his head around how this had come to be, how this proposed bug was planted. The Lance Towers was a high-tech company was one of the largest in Gold City, with multiple branches and shares all around the globe, the lance medical hospital where Damion works was a good example. Speaking of Damion, even with him still disguising himself as a nobody, Mr Lance knew this was a serious matter which Damon needed to know. Damion was the next in line, the lance towers were his birthright and inheritance.
Damion had come back from work early, the day wasn't that exhausting but he had made sure he attended to all his patients which included Jack. Jack hadn't sustained too many injuries, it was just the burn he got from the hot metal, his bruised lips from the punches he received, and the fact that he lost quite a lot of blood. Aside from that, Jack was very much fine, which was why he had already been discharged. Damion took off his work clothes and rushed into the bathroom just immediately after he arrived home, Bianca wasn't home as she was having a tight schedule lately with her modeling career, it was always from one runway to another, one appointment to another. Although they had a wedding to plan, there was still no time to do that, it was a relief for them due to the postponement of the wedding which gave them enough time and space to tackle whatever problems they had at the moment.
