Mr Lance watched carefully at Damion who still had his mobile phone pressed to his ears, the call wasn't on speaker so he wasn't able to listen to what was being discussed.
After the call ended Mr Lance folded his arms as he noticed the expression on Damion's face. “Is there a problem?”Damion stood beside the desk, he paused for a while “Not really, it's Jack”.Mr Lance was already familiar with both Jack and Davina so he knew who Damion was talking about.“What did he say?” Mr Lance inquired with a raised brow.“He wants me to come over to his place, he sounded very urgent, and I think I should go,” Damion replied.Mr Lance nodded “It's alright son, you can go,”“Thank you, Grandpa ““I will update you about whatever is going on,” Mr Lance added.“That would be helpful, trust me, we will get to the bottom of this together” Damion assured and Mr Lance nodded in affirmation.As he watchThe news had come as a shock to Damion, he wasn't expecting anything like this, it was indeed a piece of good news and a good step to take. We should get ready,” Damion announced as he got to his feet adjusting his suit. “What are we getting ready for?” Davina inquired with a perplexed expression on her face. Damion gaze shifted from Jack to Davina “We are going to pay the Anslem group a visit”“What the hell? are you out of your mind?” Davina yelled. “Manners Davi, he is your assistant director remember” Jack cautioned and then turned to Damion “Pardon her buddy, she is just scared I guess” Damions lips cracked into a slight smile “It's alright, I understand” Jack sighed “Alright, we go together, it's ok if you can't come, Davi”“Of course, I'm not coming, no way I'm getting myself involved in a suicide mission” Davina frowned.“Alright Then it's settled, we will take my car” smiled at
The sun was already beginning to set, giving the atmosphere a dark orange-colored hue. It was a cool evening, Wes had just returned from work and was inside his room with his fiance, Malika. The love birds were entangled on top of the bed, their hands all over each other, their lips locked as they kissed, they were both hot. Wes was bare-chested at this point and Malika had only her undies on her, the rest of their clothing scattered on the bedroom floor.“You sure wanna go for a second round don't you?” Wes smiled. “Of course” Malika replied as she broke the kiss In an attempt to catch her breath. “You are such a naughty girl” Wes smirked naughtily as he began planting kisses on her neck. This sensation was getting so much for Malika that she subconsciously wrapped her legs around his waist, pinning Wes and pulling him closer to her. It was at that moment the doorbell rang interrupting them, they heard
Back at the open deserted place, Damion, Jack, and Davina still had their eyes glued to these two individuals far ahead, they had already recognized one of them to be the leader of the Anslem group. Even with how silent they tried to be, there was no way they could eavesdrop on what was being discussed as they were a few meters away. It seemed that Scott and the other guy were not ready to leave yet, all of a sudden, they watched the other man walk to the other side of the road, his eyes all over the place, scanning the whole area. “Get down” Damion warned and they all got down low inside the vehicle, hoping that they weren't spotted. They were lucky as it seemed the man hadn't seen anything. He strolled towards a large van, and took a large box out of it, lifting it on his shoulders as he walked back to the other side. “Did he see us?” Davina stammered. “I don't think so, “ Damion replied. “Down” J
“Davi, are you alright?” Jack asked Davina nodded “Yes, I'm fine” “What the hell?” Damions said In ewe, his voice bringing the two back to what was in front of them. “Is this some kind of dream or what?” Davina asked as she stared at what was in front of her. “Guys come on, let's go in, we might get caught standing here” Damion whispered. “Hell no, there is no way I'm going in there, a wall just parted right before my eyes creating a passage to God knows where, and you ask me to go in there? Hell no” Davina declined “Come on Davi, would you rather stay out here?” Jack raised a brow. Davina sighed, it was truly better to go with them than stay out here waiting for the unknown “Fine” she muttered The trio with Damion at the front hastily walked into the opening, they could see another button by the side of the wall, Damion pushed it and the walls jammed to get her slowly like they
Confusion was all that was written on their faces, Damion and Jack stood just in front of the wall, they were confused, this was the same wall which had parted a few hours ago.If not that they saw it with their own eyes and even walked into it, they would have never believed that this particular wall could open and close. “Why is it not opening?” Jack panicked, his eyes filled with worry and he banged his fist on the wall. Damion sighed seeing the reaction from Jack, he knew he was the one who dragged them into this, Davina had earlier declined to come with them and later changed her mind which had now resulted in this. “We are going to get Davina back,” Damion assured, not sure how but he just knew they would. “But how” Jack questioned with a worried look as he turned to Damion. Damion stared blankly at Jack, with no clue in mind, he stood still, racking his brain trying to see if he could figure out something. <
It was nowhere near comfortable for Damion and Jack as they tried so hard to fit into two of the boxes in the pickup truck. “Oh man, my legs hurt,” Jack complained from inside the boxes. “Just stay still, we will be out in no time” Damion assured him, he wasn't comfortable, as he could also feel pains around his knee region and shoulders. From the roof of the large box, Damion had his eyes pressed to a little opening on the box, taking a peek outside.He could see that they had traveled far into the place, trucks were moving about and everyone was busy working. Not only trucks but there were also soldiers in dark blue uniforms moving around. “This place is like a complete city of its own,” Damion commented. “Have you seen something?” Jack inquired.“Not really, just a bunch of soldiers and trucks, it baffles me as I still don't know what the hell they are trying to do here” Damion answered. Jack
Never had Davina thought that she would find herself in a situation as dire as this, she didn't need a soothsayer to know that the cold metal she felt at the back of her head was a gun. “Move it” the teenage boy's voice came again, this time with more seriousness. Never had Davina thought that a boy of this age would wield a gun. She raised her hands in the air showing that she was unarmed and that she wasn't a threat of any kind. “You have to calm down kiddo, I'm not here to hurt you” Davina muttered, trying so hard to keep her composure.“Hurt me?” The boy scoffed, “I'm the one with the gun, remember?” He added and pressed the gun more into the back of Davina's head, applying pressure in an attempt to push her out of the room.Davina got the idea immediately “ok, don't shoot I will go out and I won't trouble you anymore, i will leave as you were, trust me, we never met”Davina stepped out of the room and slowly tur
The word ‘busted’ slipped out of Jack's mouth, as he already knew they had been caught. He turned around and could see Jeremy approaching. “What do we do ?” Jack inquired, as he glanced at Damion, who remained silent. “We should run,” Jack suggested as he prepared to run. “No, we should wait,” Damion answered.“Are you kidding me?, if we wait here we will get caught and only God knows what they would do to us, we still don't know if Davina has been caught or not,” Jack complained. “You want us to run? To where? We don't know anywhere around here, if we run he might raise an alarm and you know what that would mean for us” Damion countered. “What would it mean?” Jack raised a brow. Damion slapped his forehead, he couldn't believe that with what he had just explained it was still difficult for Jack to comprehend. “It means we are doomed, man. Totally” “I see, so what do we do, we can't just stand here and wait till we are caught,” Jack replied. “We have been caught already, he i
It was funny how time flies. Within a twinkle of an eye Damion's much-anticipated wedding was here, this was going to be a wedding that would be talked about for generations to come. Although, right now, many were confused as to which of the weddings they would be attending, this was due to how close the venue of Damion and Wes' wedding was. Of Course, given that Wes was the CEO of W&S holdings, everyone would prefer to attend his wedding instead of that of a common man like Damion. Most people thought that the only reason Damion's wedding was promoted and popular was due to Bianca's status as one of the most popular models in all of Gold City. Right now the whole venue was flooded with people, different people from different places around Gold City, they had all come for Wes and Malika's wedding. The wedding was to be held at the largest event center in the city. While that of Damion was in the second largest, which was just a stone's throw from that of Wes. At the venue
It's been over two months since the incident at the Lance Towers, Gerard has been sentenced to prison together with Mr Smith who was guilty of being an accomplice. Although his father was found as an accomplice, this has not affected Wes's status; he had resigned from the Lance Medical Hospital and decided to begin work as the CEO of W&S holdings. The bitterness in Wes' heart was still there, and since his father was in prison, he decided to ruin Damion's life, although he knew that harming Damon was out of it as he didn't want to end up like his father. However, he vowed that he would make sure he embarrassed Damion in public, belittling him to the point where he would see himself as a low-life pauper with no place in the affairs of the rich. Bella was already well and strong, she had already resumed her acting career which seemed to be soaring higher with the help of Scott. The two had become the talk of the town as their movies broke the internet, any movie they acted tog
Damion watched as the police huddled the already paralyzed Gerard into their vehicle together with the Anslem soldier who was just regaining consciousness. “Dr Damion, we meet again" Detective Reeves commented as he approached Damion, stretching out his hands for a handshake. “You are here just in time detective" Damion replied as he shook the man's hand. “Just in time? Doesn't look like it” Detective Reeves answered. “How did you know about this?" Damion inquired out of curiosity. “Jack called, he also sent a text, summarizing all that was happening, all about the bug and all that" Detective Reeves revealed "I see, this is all Jack's doing," Damion smiled. “Why didn't you report this to the police earlier?" Reeves questioned. “The reason is best known to me" Damion smiled as he turned around and began to walk away, leaving the detective standing with his gaze on Damion. A vehicle suddenly pulled up in front of Damion. “Need a ride?" A voice came from the vehicle and
Immediately the shit was fired, the whole place went into a frenzy and some of the Anslem soldiers rushed to protect their leader, gunshots sounded everywhere. “Are you ok sir?" One of the Anslem soldiers asked Mr Gerard as he helped him back to his feet. “Get the van ready” the man instructed another soldier who quickly ran into the van and started the engine. All this while Damion still had his eyes locked on Gerard, he wouldn't let the man out of his sight, never, he wasn't done with him yet. Damion was about to attack again when fleets of cop cars drove into the place, and as the doors opened, Detective Reeves together with his partner Helen and other police officers stepped out. This was the handiwork of Jack, the person whom he had spoken to on the phone a while ago was none other than Detective Reeves, after the call, he had texted me Reeves, explaining every single detail of what was happening, although it was a summary, it was still enough for reeves to comprehend.
It came as a huge surprise to Mr Lance, to see Bella held captive by Gerard, Mr Lance hadn't thought of this at all, it had never crossed his mind that Bella wouldn't be safe. As Mr Lance stood there, eyes wide open staring at his granddaughter rough-handled and tied to a chair by this animal of a man named Gerard, Mr Lance gritted his teeth. Now he understood clearly what Scott meant when he said his dad would do things they weren't expecting at all. This was one of Mr Lance's fears, getting his family involved in things like this, Bella was the only family he had left before he found Damion, and now that he found Damion they were the only two family members he had left. His hand trembled as he swallowed hard, his mind calculating and thinking of the next course of action to take. Mr Lance knew that he needed to be careful as one little mistake might be the end of everything. The Anslem group soldiers weren't that much anymore, most of them had died, and some fled while o
As Davina lay there on the ground, she could feel the excruciating pains from her face, a part of her hair and shirt was already stained from her blood. Her breath was heavy and she blinked her eyes slowly, staring above, she could feel the energy in her body sipping out of her, and slowly she was beginning to lose consciousness. No matter how Davina tried to blink rapidly, in an attempt to stay awake, it seemed not to be working at all as her eyes felt heavy and the energy drainage on her body wasn't helping. A lone tear streamed down the side of her face down to her ears, and her eyes finally went shut, her mind went blank, and everywhere was dark. On the other hand, Nelly could be seen staggering towards the gun which was far away in the distance. It was funny how the two women had fought to the extent that they had pushed each other far away from the location of the gun. Nelly could already see the weapon, she couldn't walk faster than the way she was walking right
Back inside the lance towers, just outside the vault, Davina could be seen pacing around, her mind occupied, Jack had just confessed his feelings to her. It was something she wasn't expecting at all, although one part of her was very excited about this, the other part was a mixture of anger and fear. She couldn't help but frown deeply. “Why would he do that now, why would he tell me he loves me and run out to die like that just after telling me, what does he take me for, huh” Davina murmured angrily as she paced around. The gunshot sounds coming from outside the building weren't helping at all as they made her angry and scared at the same time. She cared so much for Jack and now that he had confessed his feelings to her, she wanted him back alone more than ever. “Please be safe” she muttered as she pressed her palms together and gritted her teeth. Davina's eyes traveled to the last place where she had seen the administrative assistant, Nelly. Davina frowned as the la
Mr Lance had expected this, he knew the Anslem group wouldn't stop without putting up a fight, it looked more like history was repeating itself. The Lance family had been in a fight like this with the Anslem group years back, it was in that fight that Mr Lance lost his son who turned out to be Damion's father. Damion's father was killed by the Anslem group, his death didn't happen in battle, it happened outside the battlefield, he was murdered alongside his wife, but that would be a story to tell another day.As the call ended, Mr Lance frowned, his eyes darted to the black man who was standing not too far from him. “Seal the doors and windows” Mr Lance ordered and the man nodded in affirmation as he got to work, sealing the windows. “What do we do about this?” Jack asked as he approached Mr Lance together with Davina and Jeremy. The call had been on loudspeaker so they had heard the message that was being passed to Mr lance. “They came for a fight and a fight is what we would g
Damion had never been so happy to see Jack and Davina, Just when he thought that all hope was lost, Jack and Davina came running to the rescue. While in the vehicle which had driven past the able-bodied men after them, splashing a pool of dirty water on them which was lodged by the side of the road, Damion couldn't help but wonder how Jack and Davina had came to know about this, or rather about his whereabouts or what he is up to. If he could remember correctly, he never told them about his visit to Scott and also his trip to the underground city for the second time, talking more about kidnapping Hakim and taking him to the Lance towers. Damion couldn't hold back the curiosity burning inside of him “Jack, I must say I have never been this happy to see you and Davina around, this was indeed a perfect timing.” Damion paused.“But I must ask” Damion continued “how did you get to know about this?, I mean how did you get to know what I wa
