Shelly sat in her bedroom, her hands clutching her necklace. She had just arrived from the hospital, unable to convince George to change his mind.The old idiot had seen an opportunity to finally get rid of her. Even if he saved her, she did not see a way he would allow her back into the company with a tarnished name.She had tried to speak to Michael to somehow get him on her side, but Michael did not even want to look at her. She looked at her engagement ring and wondered what type of man she had agreed to spend the rest of her life with.The man she had risked everything and tried to secure their future for had dumped her like a piece of used rag and was eager to side with his father as a loyal dog.She was all alone now, and she had no one to side with and no idea which move to take.At Daniel's house, his party came to an end, and all his guests left except for Zain, who had used every opportunity he could get to bug Daniel's house.It had taken him much thought to decide whether

George's lawyer noticed George's shaking hands and loss of color in his skin. The man seemed lost."Sir, is everything alright?" he asked."I... I... have to go," George said as he walked out of the meeting, ignoring the Director, who was yelling at him to take a seat back. But George's mind was elsewhere; he couldn't think straight and was confused as to what was happening. His world was crumbling down around him.His lawyer ran after him, but George ignored him. He got into the elevator, and when it reached the ground floor, he got out and started walking, ignoring the parking lot.He shut off the world around him; the world that he had tried to conquer was no longer pleasant for him. The world that knew him as the man not to mess with. Everything was falling to pieces in front of him, and he was helpless. The mighty George Meyers was reduced to a confused random man on the streets.He felt like a tiny rat running through a maze field for his dear life. No matter how fast it ran, th

By mid-afternoon, all of Lidigo's products were down in the entire city, and some shops and institutions were already filing lawsuits against Lidigo.The big blow was on every channel news and on every website, and Daniel was tossing to himself for every blow.He had already engaged with a health charitable organization anonymously and was already replacing all the faulty machines, like dialysis machines, which were an emergency with his own machines he secretly made in Israel.His goal of taking down Lidigo was not going to compromise the health system. He had also ordered Rexa to stop corrupting the devices and gave her rest.Soon most shops and companies were going to take the machines off their shelves without waiting for the fault, so he rested Rexa for other things.All of a sudden, Josh stormed into his office door, followed by his secretary."Sorry, sir, I told him to wait while I made a call, but he came running up here," the secretary explained."It's okay, I will handle thi

Micheal grabbed the money on the table, placing it in an envelope. His father ordering him to bring in Daniel meant there was room to negotiate for the artifact which they needed so badly."Hold on first," Shelly ordered him. She was still processing the new revelation. She could not believe they hid such vital information from her. Looking back she now understood how Daniel was always on top and making the best machines no kid his age would make. Ancient technology that was capable of creating out of the world machines or destroying machines in seconds? Such power was limitless. It sounded like it was from a fairy tale movie but she had seen Daniel's machines before and they were a work of art. But then something popped up in her head."He used this artifact to forge my signature on the loan, right?" She askedMicheal glanced at her"That's possible and probably laundered the stupid money," he replied. "Dad said its power was limitless." The couple looked at each other, and everyt

Daniel winced at the sound of the smashing phone; his enlightened hearing sense made it sound like a bomb had just gone off. He moved away from the car as he tried to recover.His guess was spot on; he could only imagine how pissed the man on the other end of the line was. Finally, he was close; the person was in the same town as he was.He quickly got into his car and drove off to a secluded area, making sure Rexa had turned off all the street cameras along the routes he was using.He arrived at the abandoned warehouse and began dragging the men one by one inside. Two of them were already awake but were too weak to move. Daniel quickly tied their hands behind the chairs and ordered Rexa to completely drain the gas from their system.Soon all four men were awake.Daniel stood in front of them without hiding his face."Good evening, I apologize for interrupting your break-in," he said before getting right to the point and asking who sent them.The four men kept looking around in confus

The lead detective ordered the officers to take the criminals outside to the car."Where…where did you find them? What have they said? Those fools are working with Daniel Lane!" George kept yelling as he was taken first out of the room."Arrest that sewer rat! That idiot framed us!"Shelly, on the other hand, was taken aback; she had not expected the FBI to find the fake delegates, especially not when they were on Daniel's payroll. It did not make sense; she expected them to have disappeared halfway around the world.The puzzle was now confusing her; she had earlier thought she could read Daniel's moves, but she was wrong."Move!" One of the agents yelled, snapping her back to reality."Wait a minute, we are not dogs; we can be taken in as human beings," Shelly yelled.The officer ignored her and led her out of the house. To their shock, they found the entire neighborhood swamped with reporters and cameras. Some had jumped the fence and were at the doorsteps trying to get the first ph

Daniel watched the bullet in slow motion as it went straight for his shoulder. He felt a little piercing pain. He had prepared his sensory nerves for the pain making the impact bearable. His smile only got a bit wider making Michael want to shoot again, but the gun jammed, and all of a sudden the gun became too hot for his hands.He began tossing the gun in his hands, shock evident on his face. He could barely hold it in his hands.Outside the office, the sound of the gun was heard across the entire floor, forcing some workers to close their office doors while the security guards ran toward the sound of the gun.Inside, Michael quickly let go of the gun that had become too hot for his hands."What the fuck! What the fuck!" He kept screaming, his perplexed gaze fixed on Daniel, who was wearing an annoying grin.The security guards stormed in at the count of three, just in time for Daniel to get into his acting, wailing in pain as he tried to hide behind his chair."He shot me, he shot

Daniel sat on the outpatient bed, all bandaged up, having just given his lawyer instructions to make a deal with the Meyers. It was a tedious move, but the way things were going, he was worried that his plans would be derailed, especially if George's old partner decided to bail him out.Michael's desperate move to get rid of him was an opportunity too good to pass up.If everything went according to plan, he'd be able to complete his tasks in a matter of days.The door slammed open without a knock, jolting him back to reality.Kendall and her uncle took the same steps in, and Kendal ran straight into Daniel's arms."Oh, Daniel, are you all right?" She inquired.Daniel awkwardly sat on the bed, unsure whether to hug her back or not. "I am fine, please do not worry," he replied, trying to push her away. He felt she was holding him too tightly.Josh cleared his throat, forcing Kendall to let go of Daniel."We thought you were dead," he said."Yes, the social media reports were all saying

A week threw by with Daniel going back to his life and concentrating on his companies. He had a lot of pending projects that he needed to start and finish.He was aware that there were a lot of questions about the partner or who took his sperm, but life had to go on. He and Rexa needed to start doing what they were intended to do and changing a lot of lives. Though Josh's issue kept nagging him. The man was yet to decide whether to walk or save his brother. Cathy also went back to her old life; clearing her death certificate was not that difficult, though the country was shocked by the turn of events. She took the initiative and moved into Daniel's mansion, even though her mother was against it. But she felt Daniel was too slow and that he was going to lose his concentration on their relationship and instead focus on the company.Carol did not mind, Cathy was good company even though her stay meant constant visits from Rachel who was too annoying and violent for her liking.As for

Daniel placed both the heart and the brain in different cooler boxes, took two long trips to different parts of the country, and buried them both in different locations.His wish was for the old man to never see the sun or daylight again and for the stories of his existence to be a mere myth and forgotten with time.Once he was done, he instructed Rexa to delete the memory of the location in his head. Even Rexa went for it and deleted hers too si that Daniel's future generation would never locate the two organsHe went back for his body and burnt it while Max and his mother's bodies were taken back to the underground lab for the police to find, and the cause of death was ruled as lead poisoning from the leakage from the mine due to the blackout. By the time he headed home, it was morning, and all he wanted was to get some good sleep. He went straight to his mansion and found Aunt Carol on her feet, training her legs."It's over now, we can now pop that champagne," he announced.Aunt

"If you want to live, stay calm and answer her questions!" Daniel warned them.He knew he was no longer in control, and Rexa was controlling everything using her own mind.Max tried to move his aching body across the room. Everything hurt; he felt like he had been tossed by an elephant on thorny rocks.Daniel moved closer to the bed, curious to see what Rexa was earlier calling a non-living thing."Move away from him!" Angela yelled at him.But he ignored her and was meant with a greyish-blackish tone of mass. It was human from the shape of the head and body, but the skin looked like it was about to rot but paused.He gulped as if he were about to vomit; it was not smelling, but the sight was nauseating."How dare you?" The old man yelled at him."What the fuck is this?" Daniel asked, looking in Angela's direction, but she looked away."A MAN THAT REFUSED TO DIE," Rexa popped up, "AND I THINK HIS CONDITION HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH WHAT HE TOOK ON THAT SHIP," she added."Shit, I guess

"What did you just say?" Daniel asked."RODRICK IGRAM IS ALIVE, YOUR GREAT, GREAT, GREAT GRANDFATHER'S FRIEND, THE ONE THAT DIED," Rexa replied.Daniel shook his head, "That's impossible, how old was my grandfather when he first found you?" "18 YEARS OLD, SAME AGE AS RODRICK.""So that means Rodrick was born in 1807, and that would make him over 200 years old.""DANIEL, YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS; HE HAS TENS OF NEEDLES STICKING OUT OF HIS BODY, IT'S HIM; I KNOW IT'S HIM," Rexa replied.Inside the lab, Max called for backup and tried to get the magnates working, but without electricity, they were useless."She is here," his grandfather whispered."Who?""The relic, she is here," he replied with glittering eyes.Max quickly checked his camera footage and asked his men to search for Daniel, but they could not find anything."That's impossible, Daniel is nowhere near here.""She can manipulate sound or any form of matter, so do not expect to see Daniel near here," his grandfather laughed.Max

"Anyone try to touch those guns and I swear, I will blow off their heads!" He warned on top of his voice.Rachel stared at him, shocked, while Cathy and Craig held each other's hands and moved to the other corner.Daniel removed his phone and made a call, instructing someone to come and guard the house. He ended the call and looked in Rachel's direction."Please stay in this house, and I will deal with everything," he assured her."You have no right to threaten me," she finally replied. "Actually I do, or maybe you want me to snap Mateo back into reality, and believe me, he still has men outside prison who he can hire and take you out!" Daniel warned.Rachel began biting her lips as all her words disappeared from her lips. Daniel just threatened her, he threatened her in front of her children."Mom, just do what Daniel is asking you to," Cathy finally spoke."Quiet!" Rachel yelled, breathing heavily."Watch what will come out of your mouth, because I am ready to make you sleep until

When morning came and news of George Meyers' arrest was all over the news. Daniel, who had not slept because of the tunnel below Max's hospital, sat next to his aunt, who was in tears.Finally, the day she had always hoped for came after her five years in a coma, but it was worth the sleep. She held her nephew's hand with tears in her eyes."You did it," she whispered. "Your parents are looking down happily on their son."Daniel smiled at her."I will pop the wine after I get the head behind the order," he replied."Did you talk to Max?" She asked.Daniel analyzed her question, "Did you know about his real parents?" He asked."He confessed when I was in my coma," she replied. "I hope you understand he is just a victim of his family's greed.""I know we talked, though I had to kidnap him in order to make him talk," he confessed."What? Please tell me you did not hurt him." "Of course not; he is fine," Daniel assured her.Cathy, who was taking a shower, finished up and joined them."Gr

Daniel slowly took a seat, trying to process everything. His best friend was Max's half-brother. He stared long and hard at him. There was a little resemblance physically and even in the way they carried themselves with the "I do not care" attitude, though Max was a total jerk if one did not know him personally.Zain was a more free type compared to Max, who always seemed to be above others. It was only after some time that he eventually warmed up. He wondered if that was part of the plan so that he could not suspect anything.He had a lot of questions in his head and a lot of memories kept popping up, but he could not comprehend the fact that the partner was around him all this time and neither George nor Josh or Gabriel suspected anything."Are you the one that shut down power at the Jerk's hospital?" Zain asked, trying to snap him out of his thoughts."Yeah, there is a private elevator in the hospital that leads underground, right?" Daniel asked."Tell me where Kendall is, and I wi

Craig's heart began beating fast, and he was not sure how to react. The old man was sick in the head. He had held the man in high esteem, but knowing the man personally, made him want to vomit.First, he forced his niece to have sex against her will, and when that was not enough, he even went further and stole sperm from the man he drugged her with."Are we together?" Josh asked.Craig cleared his throat."Does Daniel know about this sperm?" Craig finally asked."No…," Josh replied. "This is about freeing your sister, but if you want, you can tell Daniel and ruin your chances.""This is betraying Daniel!" Craig raised his voice. "What kind of person are you?""Does Daniel know about the contract you signed with the partner?" Josh asked with a smile.Craig looked away."So what you are doing is not betraying, but what I am doing is betraying?" He asked. "If I am not correct, I would guess that you are going to allow Daniel to have a child that will be owned by the partner?" He asked.

Daniel clenched his shaking hand, realizing how deep the betrayal was. A voice deep inside of him told him to go upstairs and confront them, but another voice told him to stay calm and use his head."WE FOUND THE PARTNER, DANIEL," Rexa whispered in excitement. "THIS EXPLAINS HOW ZAIN KNEW ABOUT THE RELIC FROM CHILDHOOD," she added.Daniel closed his eyes; he was not as excited as she was. He was somehow disappointed and not impressed that it turned out to be Max's family.But he was going to give credit where it was due. They hid perfectly in plain sight and knew when to show their faces. "WHAT'S THE PLAN?" Rexa asked, eager to take Max down."Shut down the building!" Daniel replied"WHAT?" Rexa was a bit confused."Electricity, Internet, I mean everything, shut it down!" He ordered"DANIEL, THIS IS A HOSPITAL, AND PEOPLE WILL DIE," Rexa warned."That's where generators come in," he replied, his tone a bit shaky. "DANIEL, WE ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO PLAY WITH LIVES," Rexa warned.Daniel
