“Where is that slut?” The voice resounded from the entrance again and everyone was startled. The tone alone seemed like it shook the building, and everyone waited to see what force was causing the trembling.“I see,” the voice said again, and this time the source came into view. Everyone was able to see the figure and even Caroline who just walked downstairs gasped.“Stephen?” Her eyes widened, and she almost felt like crumbling down the stairs but held back herself quickly. He was the last person she wanted to see here, but for some reason, he came here after what he had done.“Where is she?” Stephen yelled again, darting just eyes on everyone. He was stunned to see new faces and their numbers were quite much compared to how they were before.“She even employed new workers?” He grumbled to himself before looking towards the stairs and finding her there. Quickly, like a gust of wind, he rushed and he aimed his palm at her face to slap her when Lucas came in almost immediately and block
“Papers of the company? What are you talking about and why should I pass it down to you?” Caroline sparked.“Pass it down? You are returning what you took back to me, and you have to be polite when doing so, or else you are in for it.” He smiled and pulled her closer. “If not that you are my sister, I could have killed you right on the spot. You should be lucky and do as told or else!” He added with a hint of sarcasm in his voice.Caroline's body shivered at his words, and she was on the verge of breaking down. The coldness of his eyes matched up with his words, and she realized the feeling she was trying to ignore before was right.“Don’t startle her like that! Back off. If the young master gets you, I’m sure you won’t like what he is going to do to you!” Lucas smirked and struggled to get away from the men, but their grip was quite tough to get out of. If he was facing them head-on he could have whacked their weak point to bring them down, but in this case, the whole thing was diffe
Stephen scoffed as he walked furiously down the street like he was chased. He was sweating profusely as everything that happened was still going on in his head and he ought to get away as he thought Harrison might appear out of thin air if he hung around the place any longer.“Hey,” One of the men suddenly called out to him, and he paused.“Yes, what is it?” Stephen asked with a deep voice, sounding like he wasn’t interested in having a conversation.“What about our pay? You don’t think we will keep following you like dogs, right?” The man responded while the other one nodded in support. Seeing this, Stephen's heart raced faster.He had no dime on him. Initially, he wanted to get some money off Caroline after toying with her, but then his plans got crushed. He thought the workers he would find there would be the same ones he knew, but everything was different. If not for the fact that he quickly walked out of the place, they might have crippled him.“Wait… don’t tell me you have no pe
“I said wait… damn it!” Stephen scoffed and quickly pulled out his phone to show them his balance. They paused in their tracks and their eyes squinted multiple times as they were glued to the screen trying to read the figures displayed.They couldn’t believe their eyes. It looked too good to be real. They wouldn’t have believed but after seeing the interface of the app they knew it was legit.“That’s two hundred thousand dollars?” The one exclaimed as he saw the staggering amount and his mouth was hung open as he then turned towards the other man.Meanwhile, Stephen kept nodding his head, getting high on himself. He was able to fool them so easily. Good thing he got the app as his backup plan, or else he would be done for. Though he wasn’t sure the app would work perfectly fine before, now it does.He got it from a reliable source that was into hacking. It was called a dummy account that could be used to forge a balance just to fool someone. Who could have thought it would be useful
With Stephen taking the lead, the group of gangsters walked down the street, heading somewhere. Nobody had questions at first but rather they were caressing the tip of their baseball bat preparing themselves for the mess they were going to do next.Nothing was as sweet as wrecking things up and still getting paid for it. After all, they were all gangsters and following the law was never fun compared to breaking it.Stephen kept leading them down the same street as he knew it was the only way leading to the company. Any vehicle that would want to go in that direction must have to go this way, so he thought about wrecking the whole thing up in the front so maybe before Caroline and the others find out about what was going on, they must have wrecked the whole thing down to chunks.“How long do we have to walk? I am yet to see any vehicle coming, or are we heading to a house?” Chen asked, unable to hold down his curiosity.“No. We will be meeting them here soon. Some vehicles will be comi
“I am not sure if you guys know what this is, but this good is meant to be transported to a company down the road. If you guys are some bandits, please you have to back down!” The truck driver tried to be as considerate as he could when explaining so that maybe they would back down, but their expression said the opposite.“What is this prick saying?” Stephen ignored him to look at his men, and they laughed out loud in mockery.“Maybe if we break some bones, he will have common sense.” Chen grinned and turned towards the truck driver. His stare alone had a burning sensation that made the man stagger backward and crash into his truck in fear.“Wrap this up, boys. Wreck everything and even the man himself.” Stephen gestured for them and they began to move. However, the other truck drivers had also ganged themselves and were walking towards them to find out what was going on. They wanted to know why the first guy suddenly called out to them saying they should stop, and for a long while
“What did you guys just do?” The voice snorted again and all of them were forced to turn and when they did, they were shocked to see it was Lucas.As for the others, they didn’t recognize him but Draco and his colleague did. Quickly, Draco walked towards Lucas and grabbed him by the collar.“Where is that prick?” He grumbled, spilling his froth all over Lucas's face and the latter was forced to close his eyes.Draco’s sudden action was surprising to him. Just when he took his time to go get one of the best suits close by, that was when Draco had to come in and spoil everything.That aside, what he was more worried about was the truck ahead of him. They were all a mess. He wouldn’t have known such a thing was going on as he got carried away intending to go back to the company quickly, but then a sound jolted him, and he was forced to look towards this direction only to see some group of gangsters doing much harm to the goods Caroline was waiting for.“I asked you a question, prick!” Dr
Draco and his colleague cracked their knuckles as they approached Lucas while Chen and his men were busy chanting praises at them, boosting their morale, and it was working.Both of them puffed their chest out and Lucas looked like a small mouse in their presence. But then one thing they failed to notice was that compared to before, Lucas was having a stern look on his face.They got the best of him because he wasn’t balanced, but now he was more than focused to take them on.“Are you ready to kiss my ass?” Draco’s colleague said first as he cracked his knuckles and walked behind Lucas staring at him like prey, but before he could circle him fully Lucas punched him in the nose and it broke.“That's payback!” He smirked right after the punch and the lad lost his balance almost stumbling to the floor with his nose dripping with blood and everyone was taken aback.Then the looks on their faces turned into anger. They suspected it must be out of luck that Lucas landed that punch and were
