Kai was absolutely stunned, he had no idea what was happening and who this man that was calling himself his grandfather was.

“I’ve been…” The old man’s words got stuck in his throat when his gaze fell upon Kai’s blood-covered body, his teeth gritted in anger and his expression twisted with fury.

He was going to ask Kai who did this to him but he scanned the area and was immediately able to deduce that the gang members were the ones responsible for attacking Kai.

He was a ball of pure anger, rage pulsed through his veins and his blood quickened with the raw anger that shot through him.

There’s no way he’s going to let a bunch of thugs go after doing this to his grandson.

With a wave of his hand, the old man signaled his bodyguards, who swiftly surrounded the gang members.

The gang members were trembling in fear, they knew really well that they dared not resist or run away. When Jake had hired them, he didn’t tell them that Kai was the grandson of a powerful person.

Their legs shook in fear and they all swallowed hard as they waited for the fate that awaited them. The old man and the men in black were too scary and well-trained for a small gang of thugs.

The men in black launched into a ruthless assault, mercilessly beating the gang members. Their screams of agony resonated through the air and their throes of pain were vivid.

They stood no chance whatsoever against the assaults, they couldn’t even defend themselves and all they could do was cry and beg for mercy.

“I’m. We—” Kai collapsed on the ground, he was unable to remain standing and the feeling of weakness that took over him was overwhelming, his heart pounded really hard against his chest.

He closed his eyes and waited for what was going to happen next but despite the pain and weakness he was feeling, he also sensed an unfamiliar force slowly restoring his strength.

The pain, fatigue and weakness he felt slowly started to fade away and minutes later, the gang leader, bruised and battered, was dragged before Kai, his face swollen beyond recognition.

The thug was shaking, fear, stark and vivid shone in his eyes while Kai stood high above him, his presence accompanied by a palpable sense of raw power.

Kai gave off an intimidating, merciless aura. His energy was dark, intense and utterly ruthless and even though he hadn’t done anything to the thug, the thug was already yielding to the immense power.

“Who sent you to kill me?” Kai sneered, his aura was one of unrelenting ferocity, exuding a sense of raw intimidating energy and the bruised Thug only trembled.

“Was it Jake Benson?!” Kai demanded, emanating an aura of unyielding strength and dominance, the air around him was so different that even the thug leader couldn’t take it anymore.

“I’m sorry! I’m so sorry, please spare me and I promise that our path will never cross.” The thug bowed his head to Kai, barely able to speak as he pleaded, his words falling out of his mouth as if he was eating something really hot.

“Please forgive me!” He pleaded but Kai’s eyes had already turned red in anger, “It was Jake, He sent us to silence you and told us that you were weak.”

“Jake Benson was the one who told us that you were getting in his way and we should take you out,” The thug leader confessed, “Spare me, please.” He quickly added, not daring to look Kai in the eyes.

Kai trembled with rage, anger rising in him like a tide; he went cold with fury and breathless with utter rage that almost pushed him to the edge.

All he could think about at the moment was how to rest not just these thugs but also the Benson family, a lesson that they wouldn’t forget for as long as they lived.

The old man, however, remained impassive, his eyes devoid of sympathy as he glanced down at the gang members.

He felt nothing but hatred for them, how dare they try to hurt his grandson. His expression was cold, his glare was so piercing that the thugs could feel it.

“You think you can touch my grandson and get away with it?” The man said coldly, he didn’t lose composure or act out of anger as a small, wicked smile that sent chills down the spine of the gang took over his mouth.

With a snap of his finger, the men in black assembled behind him while one of them hurriedly came to stand beside him.

“Get rid of all of them and make their deaths look like an accident.” The old man said coldly without caring.

The thugs, when they heard this, all fell to their knees at once. None of them wanted to die, they regretted ever crossing paths with Kai and even hated the Bensons.

“Please don’t do this,” the leader begged as he kept hitting his head on the ground to atone for his mistake, “I’ll do anything you want, anything, I don’t want to die.”

“We will leave the country, you’d never see us again, please spare us. We’ll also make sure to cut ties with the Bensons, we’ll go off the radar.”

The gang members begged for their lives but the one man’s mind had been made up already and nothing could shake the decision he had made.

While the gangsters begged for their lives, Kai was left in awe and shock by the old man’s ruthless nature, even his eyes were dark and conveyed nothing.

Kai could tell that this man who calls himself his grandfather was not just an important person but also a very powerful man, even more powerful than the Benson’s.

He radiated an energy that made it clear that whenever he walked into a noisy room, the room went silent and everyone stood up for him.

“Let’s pick up where we left off.” The old man said, his expression softening at once as he turned to look at Kai.

There was a look of calmness, adoration and gladness in the old man’s eyes. Looking at Kai caused his cold demeanor to melt into one of quiet excitement.

“I— I still can’t believe my eyes, you really are alive.” The old man said in a calm, yet emotional voice. His eyes also glistened with the tears of joy that he was desperately holding back.

He had come face to face with his grandson after years upon years of searching all over for him.

“My name is Fabio Grant, I am your grandfather, and as surprising as this next information might seem, you, Kai, are the sole heir to the Grant family’s vast fortune.”

    Kai was astonished, he couldn’t believe or understand what this old man was saying to him and Fabio, understanding this, took it upon himself to explain.“I know you must be confused but this is how it all happened,” Fabio explained, “you got lost at a very young age, but the Grant family possessed a very great mysterious power.”“Each member had a life crystal that could locate their kin,” Fabio continued with his explanation and Kai listened with keen interest.“However, your life crystal had always been in a dormant state, indicating that something had blocked your abilities and so because of that, we couldn’t find you as quickly as we thought we would.” Fabio finished and Kai’s mouth opened slightly.Kai, after hearing Fabio’s explanation, reflected on his past and he didn’t seem so confused anymore, everything Fabio explained made perfect sense.The Benson family had always told him that he had an illness and that he needed to drink a secret medicine daily.Each time Kai took tha

Fortunately, Nora had already left due to matters at the company; otherwise, she'd be shocked to see Jake like this.Wasn’t he supposed to be her gentle and refined younger brother? How could he look so twisted and malicious?Jake’s mind raced, desperately trying to find a way to fix everything. Suddenly, as his eyes swept over the decor of the house, an idea struck him."That's it—I can fake a scene where Kai comes back and assaults me.

Looking at the mirror, he was satisfied to see the wound that Kai had inflicted on him and wincing, he rushed to the phone, pretending to be wrong

He didn’t care about any of them, all he cared about was the money they had.“It’s just—” Nora sighed, her voice trailing off as she sat on the chair that Jake had led her to, “I’m worried about the gold bracelet that the bastard stole.” She added.Jake knew the bracelet she was referring to. It was the same bracelet that he stole and sold off just so that he could get some money to pay off the loan sh

    Jake couldn’t believe what he heard Gina say, it was surprising that someone as lowly as Kai would have a woman like Catherine interested in him.His surprise soon turned into anger that coursed through his veins and made his blood pound against his chest like the sound of a beating drum.His fist clenched and teeth gritted as he excused himself. The sound of Gina crying over the phone was getting him even angrier but he didn’t want to reveal that.“Stop crying, Gina,” he said comfortingly even though what he really wanted to do was yell at her until she had stopped crying, “it must have been hard on you.” He added, his voice laced with fake sympathy.“I don’t know what Kai did but I promise that I’m going to get to the bottom of this,” he went on in a bid to comfort Gina. He couldn’t possibly let his true self show because they still believed that he was the good person and Kai was the horrible one.His stomach tightened as different thoughts and questions ran through his mind and th

I really need the medicine, I need to take it now or this pain is going to get out of control.” Nora said with urgency and her pain obvious in her voice.“Just wait for me! I’ll go and get the medicine right away!” Jake said with conviction, “I won’t let anything happen to you!” He added before hanging up the phone.He rushed to the nearest pharmacy to get Nora a cheap painkiller. He had hoped that was going to ease her pain in the meantime while he thought.Knowing how severe Nora’s case was, Jake knew that he had to somehow find a way to get t

    “We’re here!” Fabio said happily as soon as they got to the golf course and Kai had expected to meet more people but the course was quiet.He didn’t need a soothsayer to tell him that his grandfather owned the course and the only people on it are probably the people that maintained it.Now is the right time to spend some alone time with his grandfather and ask as many questions as possible.“What were my parents like?” Kai asked as they took turns hitting the golf ball and Fabio only smiled as memories upon memories hit him.He had avoided talking about Kai’s parents for so long but he knew that a day like this was definitely coming and he would have to talk about them.He felt like Kai must have forgotten about his real family because another effect of the potion the Benson family fed him is the long term memory loss.Traveling down memory lane, Fabio couldn’t stop talking about Kai’s father and all the things he had accomplished, he was proud of his son and daughter in-law and even

    “I’m so sorry for the embarrassment, Mr Grant, I should have told the security never to let Gina Murphy back into the company.” Catherine apologized.“You don’t have to apologize, Catherine,” Kai said as he took a sip of his coffee, “it’s not your fault and you couldn’t have known that they were coming.” He added.Catherine felt responsible for what happened and despite what Kai had just said, she still thought that her sloppiness was what had caused Gina to come back to the company.If Gina had been the only one then she wouldn’t have gotten as mad as she was right now but she had Lila Benson with her, a member of the family that had made life hard for Kai.“That is never going to happen again.”bCatherine assured Kai who nodded with a smile as he kept on eating.When Catherine had handled the whole thing, he had almost forgotten about it.

    The entire Benson family was in disarray and to protect her family, Nora had no other choice but to keep the dark truth to herself even though she was going crazy deep within her.“I need you to find him for me…..” The veins in her forehead looked like they were going to burst as her teeth gritted. All of her attempts to call for help only proved futile.It’s almost as though Kai was already invincible and the people who could actually approach and bring him to his knees are the same people that wouldn’t even help the Benson family.“What do you mean you can’t help us anymore?” Nora yelled, her grip tightened around the phone and she had gotten so close to smashing it against the wall.“WHAT?! This family has been nothing but good to you! We have helped you in times of trouble and you dare say….." the sound of the incessant beep was enough to tell Nora that she’d been hung up on.“ARGGHH!” She screamed, her voice heavy with frustration as she threw the phone on her bed and ran her fin

    “Wait— A— Are you sure you heard her right?” Nora asked, panicking, her heart was palpitating and she felt like she was going to pass out as soon as Gina and her sister gave her the news.“Yes, we heard her loud and clear, she told us that we’ve been black listed and I really don’t think that after this any other company would want us.” Lila responded.She sank into the couch, her eyes were almost rolling and her head hurt as she pinched the bridge of her nose but all anger was directed to Kai.Her anger, hatred and disgust for Kai only got even higher and it was beyond control, she also couldn’t understand why Kai doesn’t seem like that.“That idiot, Kai, was with her,” she said in a low tone as her sister sat on the couch right next to her, “he had this arrogant smile and he just pisses me off.” She added through gritted teeth.“Does he look sick? Do you think he’s going to come for the antidote because, you know, he could die without it.” Nora said and Lila looked over at Gina.She

    “What were you trying to do, Gina?” Catherine demanded, she was livid and wanted to slap Gina right there and then but she needed to keep calm.She definitely can’t be seen losing her calm composure especially in a place where there are lots of cameras.“M— Mi— Miss Catherine, I s— s— s— swear it’s not what you think, we were jusssssstttt catching up.” Gina lied, fumbling her words as she stuttered.“Oh really?” Catherine responded, tightening her grip around Gina’s wrist so much that Gina couldn’t hold back the wince that made its way out of her mouth.Catherine was hurting her but only Gina and Catherine knew that because there was a sweet smile on Catherine’s face and anyone would think that they were only having fun.“You want me to believe that you were just catching up with my boyfriend with your hands raised on him?” Catherine asked through gritted teeth.Her aura was scary and intimidating and Gina always knew that she couldn’t compete with a woman that became a CEO at a very
