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
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
