However, Emily defied his order, glaring at him with a strong determination not to yield to him, while wincing silently in pain.
This immediately infuriate John, making him to gnash his teeth!
He couldn't believe Emily would choose over getting hurt than begging him or giving him her body!" You foolish bitch!"
He slammed her against the car door furiously and released his grip from her jaw but hit her face once again, this time more harder!" Haa!"
A jolt of sharp pain that electrified Emily's whole body, made her paralysed for some seconds, her eyes gradually becoming red.
She couldn't imagine the years of John, holding several arms, and now using his strong hand to hit her!In the moment of pain and discomfort, she felt a crack in her right jaw, coupled with a metallic taste. This crumbled her, wordless with unexplainable pain.
" Still stubborn?!"John sneered at her. Seeing Emily succumbing to the pain, a sense of satisfaction coursed through him.
Tears pricked at her eyes, blurring her vision, but she bit the inside of her chick to stop herself from crying.
In no way would she cry in front of this vicious scumbag!
Even though, she was hurt and sweating profusely, the look of defiance was still obvious on her face.
She would rather die than give her body to John!Again, John let out an irritated and enraged growl and raised his hand to grab hold of Emily's neck!
He wanted to snap it right away! However, Emily managed to shift her neck and rolled away from her position. Swiftly, John threw a blow at her tommy and dragged her back towards him, barking crazily, " Where do you think you are rolling to?! You can't escape from me! Your fate is in my hands! I can determine your death right now!"Emily's eyes were blazing with anger!
She was unwilling, regardless of being at a disadvantage. " I don't care!" She snapped, going breathless with ire!In the struggle, she scratched John's arm ruthlessly, spitting a mouthful of bloody saliva at his face!
Exasperated, dark lines appeared on John's forehead, his expression becoming unpleasant.
" You dare!!!"
Ignoring the fact that Emily was just a woman, he punched her face without restraint, which resulted into her nose getting swollen and broken!!" Hahhhhh!!"
Emily's resolve was shattered by the hit, losing her strength, and she collapsed weakly on the worn out car seat, which squeaked loudly.
Blood with some matters flowed out from her nostrils, the pain intensifying and adding more to her previous pain.
As she tried to took in some hair, she almost suffocated and passed out from the pain....
Staring at her in this state, there was no hint of compassion or pity on John's face, rather he snorted indifferently.
" Aren't you being stubborn anymore?!"
Just then, his phone rang. Feeling a flash of annoyance, he grumbled before answering the call, especially after seeing the caller ID.
" Where the hell are you , John?!"A familiar voice sounded from the other end of the call.
It was his master, Victor.
John rolled his eyes and stepped away from Emily, answering in a low voice, " I am already close. In few minutes, I would be there."
" Idiot! You better don't try any irresponsible action!" Victor reminded him loudly, as if knowing what he was up to. " She is the wife of James Donovan! If he gets to you, you are fried!"
As he heard this, he went into a deep thought, putting on a serious look.
Indeed, James Donovan was powerful and his identity as the god of war was terrifying. But he was unwilling to let go of his revenge!
After some seconds, Victor angrily hung up the call.John knew he was a good loyal friend to Kael during the days they guarded the borders from invaders. Being in the military for a long time, he thought he was going to be the General, however, James snatched his position!
At least, that was what he believed!
Ever since then, he had put it in mind to make James pay, and that was why he betrayed Kael.
He glanced at Emily, feeling disgusted by her bloody sight, and his lips twitched.
Before John could turn away from her, he heard some thing unbelievable!
" You can satisfy your sexual desires on me," Emily breathed out, her chest rising heavily.. She had just thought about this and realized the best thing to do. His dilated his eyes instantly, and he jerked his head backward." Do you know what you are saying?"
Emily struggled to nod, the pain in her nose making her to involuntary groan and shut her eyes!" Yes but ....on one... condition."
She affirmed slowly, raising her right middle finger to signify the one condition she wanted. " What is it?!" John asked impatiently, moving closer to her. " You better don't disclose this to anyone." Although, he was repulsed by her bloody sight, he still couldn't let go of Emily without having a taste of her. This way, he would feel more proud of having something that belongs to James.. Emily cast her gaze downward, taking in labored breathing, and her eyes reddened even more... " Show me that my daughter is safe, and I will agree to all your demands."Related Chapters
GOD OF WAR BRINGS JUSTICE Chapter 13. Escape
" You want me to show you that your daughter is safe?" John repeated, furrowing his brows tightly.." Is that even a reasonable request?!" Emily inhaled sharply, raising her hand to wipe away the blood from her nose. " Anything that involves my daughter is reasonable," retorting, she lowered her eyelids that trembled. A huff echoed from John, but he coincided anyway. " Fine. I will grant you your wish." Then, he took out his phone and scrolled casually. After some seconds, he turned the phone screen towards Emily, which displayed a video, and he tapped on the play button immediately. " See for yourself." Emily lifted her eyes, her face crumbling like a used tissue. In that instant, tears lurked around the corner of her eyes as she watched the video of her daughter, tied to an hospital bed, appearing lifeless and immobile. " My baby," she cried out without control, shaking her head. This shattered her heart into a million pieces. No loving mother would want to see her child
GOD OF WAR BRINGS JUSTICE Chapter 14: sacrifice
Emily, who was already trembling, with her face turning ashen, was stunned when she didn't feel any movement around her. " Huh?" Shifting a little bit, she lowered her head but was met with a different surprise! " Haahhh!" The sight of John rooted in one single place, with his neck sprouting out blood and deep crimson lines filling his eye balls, terrified her to the core! It felt as if she was under a cold corpse! Without thinking twice, she pushed John from her path, and swiftly got up, her eyes scanning the bush anxiously. John's body jerked with the sudden push and couldn't even lift any of his limbs. He didn't expect his plans to get interrupt. Now, his life force was slowly slipping away. Fear filled Emily's heart as her mind raced uncontrollably, failing to comprehend what just occurred. Wasn't John about to sexually assault her? At this time, a tall straight figure like a towering spear, strode forward, exuding a strong presence capable of pressuring a mountain. "
GOD OF WAR BRINGS JUSTICE Chapter 15. Dangerous Zhao
Emily's eyes contracted fiercely, and slowly, she turned her back, a layer of unsettling emotion roaming across her face. " Sarah." A young girl with dim eyes in an halter neck gown, inclined her head downward.Silently, Sarah tightened her grip on the teddy bear in her hands, her eyes gradually becoming red." Sarah. Please, what you heard is rubbish." Emily skipped forward to hold her daughter, who was standing right beside the door, while trying to clarify things immediately. However, Sarah shuffled a step back from her mother, a muffled sob escaping from her mouth. She knew her grandparents didn't like her from the start, but is this how much they despise her? They don't even want her anymore......" This isn't rubbish!" Steven sneered, his face contorting in contempt. He was seriously getting annoyed at Emily's stubbornness. His businesses were failing, and he needed urgent funds, which couldn't be delayed. Only Wei Zhao was ready to help, but it comes with a cond
GOD OF WAR BRINGS JUSTICE Chapter 16: Location
After receiving the call, James refused to waste any time and headed straight to the car with his long legs. He needed to get to the described location as possible. Voom! The car roared terribly like a lion king after it prey! Staring at the fading figure of James at a distance inside the secret house, Kyle sighed, his expression inexplicable. He knew this was all his fault.But what made him feel helpless was knowing there was nothing he could do about it. " Your guilt won't take you anywhere." Jessica walked behind and offered a polite smile. " I think you should fight along side with him." Kyle glanced at Jessica, his expression moving between surprise and confusion, as if struggling to say something. .Jessica could perfectly comprehend Kyle's turmoil. So, she said nicely, " I can take care of James and Emily. Don't forget I am not only a medical expert but a martial art experts also." Yes, she was not just a renowned doctor, who had worked in the military for years but

Sounds of hurried footsteps dominated the hospital reception as a man bustled in a frenzy manner, exhaling heavily. " Mr. Zhao! They have located this place!" One of the henchmen, who was rushing forward, halted right in front of Victor. Victor was still with Zhao, and they were about to conclude their discussion when the henchman arrived unexpectedly. Wearing a quick frown, Zhao snapped irritatedly, " What are you saying?! Who the hell are you?! Get lost!" He didn't hesitate to scold the henchman as he disliked being interrupted. However, Victor was much more sensible. He raised his brows and glanced at the henchman.." Who located this place?" In a collected way, he questioned him. The henchman tried to steady himself, reducing his heavy breathing, and he parted his quivering lips. " The rumored god of war......" Hearing this, both Victor and Zhao's expressions changed instantly! ...Forest" Yes! General, I can finally see the hidden hospital!" President Richard shoute

The instant, James was able to crack open the giant steel blocking the entrance, he jumped in order to avoid any attack that might come unexpectedly. Descending from the sky like a god about to save a little princess, his facial expression was frightening, and he landed ruthlessly on one of the guards. The guard didn't see this coming, and his bones got shattered!Now, it was uncertain if he would survive or end in hell. Wei Zhao was so scared, watching this that he shuddered like sieve and turned to Victor, standing beside him. He didn't want to believe James could be the rumoured god of war but looking at the formidable strength, and how he just manually busted a giant steel, the thought was hard to push away. Is he really the god of war? But isn't he just a penniless son in law, who only trained in the military for some years? " We have to stop him at all cost. The end won't be favourable." Victor's eyelids were unstable, but he agreed to Zhao's words. There was no going b

Suddenly, a frail voice called out, although light but weak..." Daddy!" Immediately, James was charged up, his ears perking! He didn't waste a time and lifted his head, scanning the walls around. " Sarah!" His deep voice echoed out strongly like thunder rumbling the building, and he skipped away from Victor and Zhao, who was writhing on the ground. " Victor!!" Rolling on the ground, Zhao screamed and managed to stretch his hand forward, as if wanting to stop James. " Where are the men?! You better stop him now! If he gets his hand on his daughter, we are doomed, especially you! The Tarlose family will be wiped out, and you would be gone!" Victor, upon hearing this, tried to regain his composure and adjusted himself. He took out a small cloth to wipe away the beads of sweats on his forehead and quickly made a call. " Where are the men?! I want them here within minutes unless y'all want to be finished!" He threatened in an unfamiliar voice and hung up instantly, exh

After Zhao finished his order, Kyle appeared in the building, striding in as if he was ready to strike anyone that comes his way. Without saying anything, he stood by James' side and rolled his long sleeves from his hands. " Just like the old time." A playful grin tugged the corner of his lips.The trained men ordered by Zhao, didn't waste a second and attacked both Kyle and James swiftly! From their first move, it was glaring they were skilled, and this made James' gaze to narrow. Zhao was quick to caught this slight move on James' face, and he made a ludicrous laughter, clapping his hands together amusingly. " Haha! I know this will be your end! Look at you, you are even nervous about the men I just got.You are doomed! I'm sure you will beg me for mercy and roll on the ground, crying! Haha! Now, kneel on the ground and kow kow to me! Slap yourself a hundred times, then I will consider sparing you or not..." He suddenly went mad and shouted excitedly, taking James' facial move

CHAPTER 256
The drive back to the Radcliffe estate was quiet.The weight of recent events lingered in the air, but for the first time in months, there was a sense of closure.James glanced at Emily in the passenger seat, her head resting against the window as she watched the trees blur past.In the backseat, Sarah was fast asleep, her small face finally free of worry.“This feels strange,” Emily said softly, breaking the silence.James glanced at her. “What does?”“Coming home. No Syndicate. No immediate danger. Just... life waiting for us.”James nodded, his grip on the wheel tightening slightly.“It’s what we’ve been fighting for.”Emily turned to him, a small smile on her lips.“I just hope we remember how to live it.”Later that evening, the team gathered at the estate’s main hall for what felt like the first peaceful meal in years.The atmosphere was warm, but there was an underlying current of finality.Kael raised his glass, smirking.“So, this is it, huh? No more bunkers, no more ambushes
CHAPTER 255
Winter’s fingers flew over her keyboard, her screen filled with data streams and encrypted files.The room was dimly lit, the glow of monitors casting sharp shadows on her focused expression.James stood behind her, his arms crossed, tension radiating from him.“You’re sure about this?” James asked, his voice low but firm.Winter nodded, not taking her eyes off the screen.“Positive. These files weren’t just buried—they were hidden in layers of false leads. Whoever did this wanted to make sure no one found them, not even Zhao.”Kael leaned against the doorway, arms crossed.“And yet, here we are. What exactly are we looking at?”Winter tapped a key, bringing up a series of interconnected names, companies, and shell organizations.“The Syndicate isn’t just regrouping—they’re rebranding. New names, new players, same game.”James’s jaw tightened. “Led by who?”“That’s the kicker,” Winter said, spinning her chair to face them.“These files mention leadership figures Zhao didn’t even know
CHAPTER 254
The black SUV pulled into the secluded driveway of the secure facility, surrounded by towering walls and layers of surveillance.James stepped out first, scanning the area with a soldier’s precision.Behind him, Emily and Sarah emerged, their expressions a mix of weariness and unease.“This isn’t a home,” Emily said quietly, her arms crossed as she glanced at the cold, gray building.James turned to her, his voice calm but firm.“It’s not supposed to be. It’s safe.”Emily sighed, the weight of the past few days evident in her posture.“Safe, James, but not sustainable. We can’t keep uprooting our lives like this.”James met her gaze.“It’s temporary. Just until we figure out our next move.”Inside, the facility was stark but functional. Sarah clung to Emily’s hand, her eyes darting around the unfamiliar surroundings.“Is this where we’re going to live now?” Sarah asked softly, her voice tinged with worry.Emily knelt to her daughter’s level, brushing a strand of hair from her face.“J

The strike team moved with precision, navigating the dense jungle that surrounded the suspected Shadow Council hideout.Winter’s voice came through the comms, calm but focused.“You’re two clicks out,” she said.“The perimeter scans show minimal activity. If they’re there, they’re keeping a low profile.”James adjusted his headset, his eyes scanning the terrain.“Understood. Stay on the sensors. If anything moves, I want to know.”Kael, walking just behind him, let out a low whistle.“Too quiet. I don’t like it.”James nodded.“Neither do I.”The team reached the entrance to the bunker, its steel doors partially concealed by overgrown vines.Kael moved forward, placing a charge on the lock.“Ready to breach,” he said.James gave a quick nod.“Do it.”The explosion was sharp and contained, the doors swinging open to reveal a dimly lit corridor. The team entered cautiously, their weapons raised.Winter’s voice came through again.“You’re in. Be careful—this layout is identical to some o

Winter’s workstation hummed with activity as lines of code scrolled across her screen.She leaned forward, her brow furrowed in concentration.On a nearby table lay the charred piece of paper Kael had recovered from The Widow’s lair.It was encoded, a complex cipher that had taken days to crack.Kael leaned against the wall, watching her work.“You’ve been at this for hours, Winter. Got anything?”Winter sighed, her fingers pausing over the keyboard.“Almost. Whoever wrote this wanted to make sure it stayed hidden. But they underestimated me.”James entered the room, his expression sharp.“What’s the status?”Winter pointed to the screen.“I’ve almost got it. The code is... odd. It’s deliberate, but there’s something about it that feels personal, like whoever wrote it wanted us to find it.”Kael raised an eyebrow.“Personal? From the Syndicate? Doesn’t exactly sound like their style.”Winter’s screen dinged softly, and she sat back, a faint smile of triumph crossing her face.“Got it.
CHAPTER 251
The boardroom was uncomfortably quiet as Emily entered, her heels clicking against the polished floor.The tension in the air was palpable, the kind of silence that only came before a storm.She set her tablet down on the conference table and looked around at the gathered board members.Many avoided her gaze, their expressions carefully neutral.Others met her eyes with a mix of defiance and unease.“Thank you all for coming,” Emily began, her tone sharp but calm.“I’m aware there have been... concerns about the direction of this company in the wake of recent events.”A man at the far end of the table, Greg Thornton, cleared his throat. He was one of the company’s longest-serving board members and had always been vocal about his disapproval of Emily’s leadership.“Concerns is putting it mildly, Mrs. Radcliffe. Some of us are wondering if your methods are jeopardizing this company’s future.”Emily raised an eyebrow.“Jeopardizing? Or exposing inconvenient truths?”The room shifted unea

The interrogation room was colder than usual, or perhaps it just felt that way.Zhao sat at the table, handcuffed, his posture relaxed despite the weight of his situation.His smirk was firmly in place, as if he were the one holding all the cards.James entered, his footsteps deliberate and echoing in the silence.He placed a folder on the table, its contents thick with evidence of Zhao’s crimes.Without sitting, he leaned on the table, his eyes locked on Zhao.“This is your last chance,” James said, his tone sharp.“Who’s still out there? Who’s pulling the strings now that you’re finished?”Zhao chuckled softly, shaking his head.“Finished? My dear Radcliffe, you give yourself too much credit. You’ve barely scratched the surface.”James’s jaw tightened, but his voice remained steady.“You’re alone. The Syndicate is in ruins. You have nothing left.”Zhao leaned forward slightly, his smirk widening.“Nothing left? Oh, James. You’ve only pruned the tree, not uprooted it. The roots are s
CHAPTER 249
The headquarters was quieter than usual, but the weight of what they’d accomplished hung heavy in the air.James stood in the main briefing room, surrounded by his team, while Winter sat at her station, typing furiously.Screens around her displayed reams of data—records, account numbers, and connections all tied to the Syndicate.Kael leaned against the wall, arms crossed.“That’s it, then? We’re done?”Winter didn’t look up from her screen.“Not yet. The Widow’s fall gave us access to a treasure trove of intel, but there’s a lot to sort through. Sleeper agents, hidden funds, collaborators—we need to root out every last one.”James nodded, his expression grim.“Every loose end tied up. No one slips through.”Kael raised an eyebrow.“You think that’s even possible? The Syndicate had its claws in everything.”James’s voice was steady. “We don’t stop until it’s done.”In another part of the building, Emily stood in front of a mirror, adjusting her blazer.She was minutes away from addre
