GOD OF WAR BRINGS JUSTICE Chapter 49: Severity of the news
The medical director knew his power was nothing compare to the Tarlose family, who controlled majority of the happenings in the hospital. He represented just a medical director with little or no say at all. With quiet resolve, he coincided, nodding his head and said, ‘’ Yes, Mr. Leonard. We will proceed with recovering your son’s hands.’’ Leonard let out a snort, lowering his eyes down at the medical director. ‘’ You better do what you have to do!’’ Saying this, he shuffled quick steps away from the medical director, heading towards his son’s ward. The door to the ward was pushed opened without warning, revealing Leonard putting on a contorted face. ‘’Victor!’’ He called his son, who was just being helped out from the rest room. Victor’s eyes shifted to his father, gnashing his teeth, and he immediately pushed the guard helping him using his back. ‘’ Get away. I don’t need your help again.’’ He hissed, a corner of his lip twisting as his face turned cold. ‘’Dad, I saw t

‘’ I think we should plan on how to double our guards, arrange the news into a false one with solid evidence, and most important is to eliminate our huge hindrance, James Donovan!’’Leonard threw out a suggestion, which immediately rendered the rest silent. In fact a pin drop could be heard at this moment. ‘’ This is great. Why didn’t we think of this earlier?’’ The aged patriarch of the Rogers laughed out suddenly, breaking the awkward silence, and he nodded from the screen, agreeing with what Leonard just said.‘’ Because of the news, several people have surrounded the private hospital, causing damage, but I will make sure they pay for this, especially James Donovan.’’ Leonard added, snarling through the screen. Isabelle twitched her lips visibly, a look of skepticism roaming across her face as she questioned instead, ‘’ Will this truly solve the mess?’’ ‘’ It will,’’ Zhao spoke up in a cold tone after a while, drifting his eyes away from the screen. ‘’ Together with my new

Watching James walked in without any regard, Steven exploded, his face twisting as his chest tightened rapidly. He looked like he was going to suffer another heart attack.Steven gaped, his eyes dilating, and he quickly clutched his chest with his hands. At the moment, he wasn’t expecting to see James due to the so called bad things he had heard about him from Juliet.Who could be proud of such in law, not to talk of James’ penniless status. Just his presence alone was enough to frustrate him! Emily turned her body to James, who was approaching her and shook her head, frowning. ‘’ You shouldn’t be here.’’‘’ I can’t let you go through this alone.’’ James stated simply, refusing her words. He had prioritized his wife’s protection, especially since she was now aware of his real identity. So how could he allow anyone to bully her? Not even her biological parents!Pressing her lips together, Emily said nothing, facing her parents. Juliet wasn’t pleased, scowling, and she snappe

" Actually, the main reason why I called is to know about your real identity. Is there more to your god of war status? I want to know everything about your life in the past five years."Her voice lowered as she demanded from James seriously.James watched her, his gaze unwavering, knowing he couldn’t avoid this no matter how he tried. ‘’ How long have you been thinking about this?’’ His voice was full of a teasing air, arching his brows. ‘’ The moment I got to know about the truth, and I swear, if you don’t tell me now, I will leave with my daughter. You wont see us again.’’ Emily squinted her eyes fiercely, threatening James in an impatient manner. For some reason, there was something strange about her today, in which James failed to comprehend. He countered immediately, ‘’ Okay fine, i will tell you. ‘’However, he was in doubt, unsure if telling Emily what she demanded would lead to change of things. Of course, change was inevitable. Moreover, he was already prepa

" What will you rather have me do, Emily?"' James's eyes pleaded for understanding as he grasped Emily's hands, his voice laced with conviction. "I kept my true identity hidden to protect you, Emily. As the God of War, my enemies would stop at nothing to harm those I love."Emily's gaze faltered, her eyes welling up with unshed tears. The pain and betrayal etched on her face cut deep into James's soul. "Why did you keep it from me, James? Didn't you trust me?" Her voice trembled.James's grip on her hands tightened. "It wasn't about trust, Emily. It was about keeping you safe." His words spilled out in a rush, "I couldn't bear the thought of losing you, not after everything we've been through, especially knowing we have a daughter now." Emily's expression softened, her anger yielding to compassion. "You should have told me, James. I can handle it." Her voice barely above a whisper.James's face contorted in anguish. "I'm sorry, Emily. I was wrong to keep it from you." His apol
GOD OF WAR BRINGS JUSTICE Chapter 54: His sister
As Zhao discovered the truth, his mind raced with tons of questions, trying to come to terms with the sudden unexpected information. He had guessed there could be more to James' identity, but he didn't believe the latter would be the truly rumoured god of war. Even when Victor had mentioned it casually to him, he refused to acknowledge it, dismissing the thought. However, his rationality was now hunted by truth. At this moment, Zhao's thoughts were jumbled, calculating various way to deal with this unexpected information. But no matter what, James Donovan has crossed the line. His only beloved grandson died because of him. Thus, whether James Donovan was the god of war or not, he has to avenge his son! Therefore, his eyes turned colder like a freezing ice, unconsciously crushing the sheet of paper which contained the hidden information about James. Getting the information costed him a lot, ranging from a high fee and a high risk, though it was worth it. Crushing the paper c

James raised his head coldly, his lips almost feeling hard.." My sister didn't die. She was taken by the Tarlose and imprisoned for trying to expose their hidden secrets."Hearing this, Kael was stunned, unable to react for a split second.He stood straight with his hands clasped behind him, furrowing his brows. This new information was something unexpected for him.‘’All these times, I had thought Winter was dead, and several times I have blamed myself for not been able to save her when she needed me.’’ James pulled himself up from the seat, his heart heavy with the sudden realization. ‘’During my days in the battlefield, there’s no moment I think of Emily, and I wouldn’t remember Winter, knowing I owe her too much for not saving her.’’ He maintained a straight face but the killing intent he exuded, refused to decrease.Kael listened carefully to James, the frown on his face deepening. He couldn’t believe the Tarlose had fabricated such a lie for them, deceiving them complet

The reinforced door creaked open, revealing Andre’s command center.The room was a stark contrast to the rest of the base—brightly lit, with sleek monitors displaying surveillance feeds and tactical maps.At the center stood Andre, flanked by his personal guard, all armed and ready.Andre turned slowly, a smug smile spreading across his face.“Radcliffe. You finally made it. I was starting to think you got lost in the tunnels.”James stepped forward, his team at his back, weapons raised.“It’s over, Andre. Stand down.”Andre chuckled, spreading his arms theatrically.“Over? Oh no, Radcliffe. This is just the beginning. Look at you—storming in here, guns blazing. Do you even realize how much destruction you’ve left in your wake?”James’s voice was calm but firm.“Spare me the speeches. You’ve done more harm than I ever could.”Andre’s smile widened, his tone mocking.“Haven’t I, though? But tell me, James—how many lives have you ruined in your so-called quest for justice? How many inno
CHAPTER 240
The stale air of the tunnel hung heavy as James led his team deeper into the darkness. Their flashlights cut narrow beams through the gloom, illuminating jagged walls and rusted support beams. Every step echoed ominously, the sound swallowed by the oppressive silence.Kael’s voice broke through the tension. “Does it feel like we’re walking straight into a trap, or is that just me?”“It’s not just you,” James replied, his voice low. “Stay sharp. Andre’s not leaving anything to chance.”Winter’s voice came through their earpieces. “You’re about fifty meters from the first checkpoint. Be ready—there’s no way he left this unguarded.”As they rounded a corner, a sudden click echoed beneath Kael’s boot. He froze, glancing down.“Trap,” Kael muttered.James stepped forward, crouching to examine the pressure plate beneath Kael’s foot. His jaw tightened as he assessed the mechanism.“It’s a fragmentation mine,” James said. “Don’t move.”Kael smirked despite the tension. “Wasn’t planning on it.

The newsroom buzzed with activity as Andre’s broadcast played across every major network.He stood before a sleek backdrop bearing the Syndicate’s emblem, his posture confident and his voice smooth.“Citizens of the world,” Andre began, his tone dripping with authority, “James Radcliffe, the so-called ‘hero,’ has been lying to you. He is no savior. He is a destroyer. And I have proof.”The screen shifted to show doctored footage of James, his voice and face manipulated to make it seem like he was planning a devastating attack on Emily’s company headquarters.Andre’s voice returned, grim and commanding.“Tomorrow, this tower will burn, and it will be Radcliffe’s doing. But don’t worry—I will be there to rebuild from the ashes.”At the Radcliffe estate, James stood in front of the television, his fists clenched.The footage looped, showing his manipulated image over and over again.“Turn it off,” he said, his voice low but filled with fury.Kael, holding the remote, complied.“He’s good
CHAPTER 238
The icy mountain air cut through the silence as James and his team crouched in the shadow of a jagged ridge.The weapons cache loomed in the distance—a massive steel structure carved into the mountain’s rock face, its entrance heavily guarded by Syndicate forces.James’s voice broke the tense quiet, calm but firm.“Winter, status?”Winter’s voice crackled through his earpiece.“Security systems are standard Syndicate setup. Cameras, motion detectors, and probably a few surprises inside. I can loop the cameras, but you’ll need to move fast once you’re in.”Kael adjusted his rifle.“Standard Syndicate setup means more than just guards. They’ll have traps waiting for us, too.”“They always do,” James said, his eyes scanning the facility. “We stick to the plan. Infiltrate, disable the weapons, and get out.”Emily’s voice came through the comms, steady and supportive. “Be careful, James. We don’t know what surprises Andre left behind.”James’s jaw tightened. “We’ll handle it.”The team mov

The dimly lit cell felt colder than usual as James entered, the door clanging shut behind him. Zhao sat calmly on the cot, his legs crossed, a faint smirk on his face. The bruises from his capture had faded, but his arrogance remained intact.“Ah, Radcliffe,” Zhao said, his tone light and mocking. “Come to gloat? Or are you here to entertain me with more empty threats?”James’s expression didn’t waver as he pulled a chair across the room, the sound scraping against the concrete floor. He sat down directly in front of Zhao, his gaze unflinching.“This isn’t a game, Zhao,” James said, his voice low and cold. “Andre’s making moves, and I know you’ve been in contact with him.”Zhao chuckled, leaning back against the wall. “Andre? Ambitious, isn’t he? But unpredictable. He doesn’t listen like I did.”James slammed his hand on the table, the sound reverberating through the small space. “Enough with the theatrics. What’s his plan?”Zhao tilted his head, feigning innocence. “Even if I knew, w

The compound buzzed with energy as James outlined his plan, his voice steady and commanding despite the chaos outside.“We use their aggression against them,” James said, pointing at a map of the stronghold displayed on a monitor.“Andre thinks brute force will break us, but we’ll turn this into his worst nightmare. Set up traps in these choke points, and we’ll ambush them where they least expect it.”Kael nodded, his face grim but focused. “What about their heavy hitters? The Titan’s leading their frontline. He’s not exactly easy to miss.”James looked at Kael, his tone sharp. “You’ll take him. Keep him busy, and make sure he doesn’t disrupt the traps.”Kael smirked, adjusting the strap of his rifle. “You always give me the fun jobs.”Winter’s voice came through the comms. “I’ve breached their network. I can start feeding false intel, but it’ll only buy us so much time.”James nodded. “Do it. Confusion is our best weapon right now.”Emily, standing nearby, stepped forward. “And what
CHAPTER 235
The first explosion ripped through the quiet morning, sending debris raining down on the outer wall of the stronghold.The alarms blared almost instantly, red lights flashing across the compound as James and Kael sprinted toward the command center.“They’re hitting us hard,” Kael said, adjusting his rifle as they ran. “They didn’t waste any time.”“They want to overwhelm us,” James replied, his voice steady. “But they don’t know what we’re capable of.”Winter’s voice crackled through their earpieces. “Andre’s forces are coming from three directions: the north, east, and west. They’re heavily armed, and they’ve got tech we haven’t seen before. We’re deploying countermeasures, but the outer defenses won’t hold for long.”“Then we make our stand inside,” James said. “Get everyone ready.”The compound shook as another explosion rocked the north wall. Kael barked orders to a group of defenders, his voice cutting through the chaos.“Set up suppressing fire here! Cover the entrance and don’t

Across multiple regions, its remaining leaders turned on one another, vying for dominance in the wake of Zhao’s capture.Meetings that were once coordinated with ruthless precision devolved into shouting matches and power struggles.Andre Velasquez, a charismatic but ruthless underboss from South America, sat at the head of one such gathering, his piercing gaze silencing the room.“Enough!” Andre barked, his voice commanding. “While you bicker like children, the Syndicate crumbles. Zhao’s arrest is a temporary setback—but only if we act decisively.”One of the other leaders, a grizzled man named Viktor, sneered. “And what’s your plan, Velasquez? To throw more bodies at Radcliffe and hope he doesn’t kill them all?”Andre smirked. “Not hope—strategy. Radcliffe isn’t invincible. His allies are his weakness. We crush them, and he’ll crumble under the weight of his own failures.”Another leader, a sharp-eyed woman named Leona, folded her arms. “You’re suggesting an all-out assault? That’ll
CHAPTER 233
Zhao sat calmly in his reinforced chair, his wrists bound with steel restraints. His suit was wrinkled and stained from the days he’d spent in custody, but his eyes burned with defiance as he looked at James across the table.James stood with his arms crossed, his expression unreadable. “You’ve lost, Zhao. The Syndicate is crumbling. The world knows who you are, what you’ve done. It’s over.”Zhao smirked, leaning back against his chair as far as the restraints allowed. “Lost? You think locking me in a cage erases what I’ve built? My influence reaches far beyond these walls, Radcliffe. You’ve won a battle, not the war.”James’s eyes narrowed. “Then tell me about your loyalists. Who’s left? Where are they hiding?”Zhao laughed, the sound cold and sharp. “You really think I’d hand over my people? Even now, they’re working to rebuild. My Syndicate doesn’t die because you say it does.”In the adjacent room, Winter sat at a console, scanning through files pulled from Zhao’s private vault. T
