Jack stepped into his father’s office with a mild expression, he tilted his head in respect. As he awaits his father’s decision while still standing.“Have a seat,” he said gesturing to the seat across his desk.Jack nod, as he moved forward sitting down, with his eyes fixed on his father. He grasped his father called him regarding the issue that occur recently. Mr. Harrison Campbell sniffed, clearing his throat. “Son, I called you here because I want us to talk about something.” He paused, “I am sorry if you had to find out the way you did. It wasn’t my intention, I was planning on telling you before this happened.” He said with an apologetic tone.Jack nod in understanding but his mind raced with several thoughts, he wanted to know more, there are many things he didn’t know and wished his father would inform him about everything.Mr. Harrison pulled out a photo from the drawer, Jack eyes widened when he saw the image, it was the same lady, he saw while he was kidnapped.“Who is s
Jack returned to Crestview, he walked through the hallway. He noticed how other students' gaze were fixed on him. He wasn't bothered by their gaze at him; he walked into the class; he was expecting to have a lecture in the next few minutes.Anna was happy to see Jack, she moved towards him with an excited expression. At first, she was surprised to see him, and she wondered what she was that day, if it was real or not. Is she really dreaming?“Jack,” she called. “How?” Her voice hung in her throat when their gaze metHe anticipated her words, and let out a fake smile. “How are you?” Anna was left dumbfounded; since Jack's return, strange things have been happening around him. And she was eager to know but Jack was good at hiding secrets, which was difficult for her.“I am fine.” She finally muttered. “About what happened, Harry.”He shot her a cold glance, “I don't want to hear anything about it; let's forget about it.” He demanded with a firm but steady voice.“I am sorry,” she said
The two were frozen, their eyes wide in shock; they hadn’t expected it; Jack was surprised to see his guards. Eric was left on the ground grunting in pain. Elvis couldn’t shake the unease feeling that was coursing through his veins when he saw his twins on the floor. The impact was hard, Eric clutching his nose as blood poured down his face.“Who are they? And what have they got to do with this?” Jesse Warren asked.They noticed how the five guards bowed their heads towards Jack, leaving them in a state of shock and disbelief. “Young master, are you Okay? Did they touch you, what should we do with them.” Kelvin asked.“No, I am fine,” Jack replied; he smiled after witnessing the scene that was played before him.Elvis helped Eric to his feet, their faces turned pale and crimson. With their heart boiling in inner rage. ‘How is this possible, why are they bowing for him? What’s going on.” Jesse asked himself in confusion. He glanced at the badge on their suits; from the look, there
Jack stepped out of the car and made his way towards the entrance, his step echoing slightly as he scanned the room. It felt strange, surreal even, to be there. His father’s invitation had come out of nowhere, something he never anticipated. He clenched his jaw at the thought of meeting his father’s children from his other family. The siblings he had heard about and never got to meet. Even though he felt a mix of resentment and disappointment, he had agreed to come, not coming with some kind of disrespect to his father; he also thought this was a chance to clear the hatred in his mind for them after what their mother did to him, to comfort some old, buried emotions.As he crossed the lobby, the hotel staff members approached him with a warm smile and his head bowed. “welcome. Young master, Jack. This way, please,” he said smoothly, gesturing towards the road to his right.Jack nodded, as he trailed behind her towards the private dinner room. The quiet elegance of the room added to t
Mr. Harrison rose from his seat with a confused face; Allen paused, wondering what was wrong with Jack. “What’s going on, talk to me?” Mr. Harrison called out, with his voice etched with panic.Jack tried to utter a word, but a metallic taste filled his mouth. He coughed, and suddenly blood splashed across, staining the tablecloth with a dark red droplet. He felt a surge of panic within him when he realised something was wrong.Their minds raced when they noticed the stain; Mr. Harrison and Hilda exchanged worrisome glances at each other. Jack glanced at Allen, who was unmoved by what was happening to him. Jack knew he had been poisoned, but how? Was this a set-up? “Jack.” Mr. Harrison called with his heart filled with shock and fear. He rushed towards Jack’s side. Grabbing his shoulder to steady him, Jack faced downward as he continued coughing out blood.“Someone calls the ambulance; someone calls an ambulance.” Allen paused what he was doing and took his phone to call the ambul
The doctor leaned forward, his expression shifted slightly. “Mr Harrison, your son, Jack, was poisoned.” “Poisoned!!” He exclaimed in shock and disbelief.“Yes,” the doctor nodded, “We have managed to flush most of it out, but it was close, too close. I tried my best, but he is stable and I have assigned a nurse to look after him.”“Can you please tell me what happened and where you were at the time of the incident.” the doctor abruptly asked.Mr. Harrison sighed heavily as he began explaining to the doctor everything that happened and where the incident happened. The doctor nodded in understanding, as he listened intently.“It's a good thing he was brought here on time; it helped us catch the poison early. And he is young, so his body may recover fully, but there is a risk. We will do everything possible to prevent any lasting harm.”Mr Harrison's mind was clouded with questions, “Who could have done this and why?” He asked himself, he blamed himself for what happened, and he called
“What are you doing here?” he managed to spill as he tried to maintain his composure.Kelvin Wang clenched his fist, he rolled his eyes on Allen. Allen's mind was pounding fast, he felt his stomach churning. “Was he listening to my conversation? Why is he staring at me like that? If he heard me, I would be in trouble; what should I do? Did Hilda tell him anything?” After a moment, Kelvin Wang broke the silence between them. “Your father wants you to meet him in the car.” He informed with a deep Voice.Allen nodded as he walked past Kelvin, heading towards the entrance of the hospital. Where he met his father standing with his hands clasped behind his back, and Hilda stood beside him. He drew a deep breath, as he sauntered towards them. “What have you been doing?” Mr Harrison Campbell asked with a serious tone.He tried to suppress the fear that had engulfed him. His eyes lingered from Hilda to his father, “I was at the restroom, I was pressed, and I had to answer to nature.” He repl
The receptionist was scared she stared at the men standing before her with. “Is there anything we can help you with?”Kelvin Wang eyes darkened and his gaze locked on her, “where is the manager?” He asked again not ready for any argument.She took the phone and murmurs into it, then turned to face Kelvin and his men. “The manager will be out in a minute.” She replied politely.Kelvin turned away from her, his gaze scanning around the lobby. The onlooker stared at him wondering what was going on. But to his men they knew better. He was analysing every corner and taking details. He didn't see the place as a hotel anymore but a crime scene.A minute later, Elliot Gideon stepped out. His kept a worrisome and crimson outlook when he gaze met with Kelvin Wang and the guards, the incident of jack had made him reckless, knowing he would be blamed for everything that happened.“Good evening, Mr. Kelvin Wang.” he said with his head tilted and his voice low but smooth.Kelvin nodded with his e
