The dimly lit room was filled with the echoes of Bruce's voice as he finished his long and painful recounting of events. The walls seemed to close in on him as he described the torment he had endured, painting a vivid picture of his recent suffering. His narration had been raw and detailed, recounting how he had been locked up once more by his former security officers, men he once trusted but who had now turned against him.Bruce's voice cracked with a mix of anger and despair as he recounted how, after being captured, he was beaten mercilessly until he begged for mercy. The brutality of the scene he described left little to the imagination, and the stark reality of his situation was evident. His hands, as he recounted, were bruised and had traces of blood on them, his body a canvas of pain inflicted by those he once employed.Lilly and her family, seated in their comfortable chairs, listened with a curious detachment. The atmosphere in the room was a stark contrast to the harrowing s
After his victory over the unknown group, Justin was trying to regain control over lost markets. He was now in total control of the branch; he had ousted the CEO using his power as an executive from the headquarters. He did that so that no one would suspect he is actually the owner of the whole company yet. Now that he had been able to weaken the Unknown group’s media influence, he was focused on rebuilding the company while still on high alert. He believes the true mastermind behind the conspiracy is still out there and moving forward, the struggle would really be tight and would require strategic decisions and actions.He started by addressing the media fall out and restoring client’s trust. That of the investors were not left out. The next few days after the conference had been spent in meetings in a bid to restore back the normalcy of the company and ensure everything is back on track.The offices in the branch were now busy. Every hands were on deck. Mark was leading the PR Depar
Robert now seems very aware of the dangers Justin was in as an executive from the head quarters sent to manage the affairs of this branch. He had initially been skeptical of his motives but with how he had seen him act lately, he was truly convinced he had the best interests of the company in mind. He then decided to stick with him till the end. that’s the least he can do for someone who had changed his life.Justin was in his office when the door opened and Robert stepped in. He looked different from the last time Justin stopped by his office.He took a deep breath before speaking. “Justin” He started talking with a concerned voice. “I have been thinking about everything lately. How you have been trying to expose the conspiracy and I want to let you know that I am here if you need me to do anything for you.”Justin looked up from his table, gazing at him steadily. “Robert, this is not your fight.” He said with a firm voice. “I can’t drag you into it. It is a dangerous game.”Robert s
When Justin got home later on, he was already tired and he just went directly to his bedroom to lie down. He was trying to relax and gather his thoughts.A while later, a soft knock on the door jolted him out of his thoughts as Jolce entered the room. She has been expecting him home since he called her earlier. She looked lovely as she smiled at him.“How are you? I noticed you were tired when you came in. I didn’t want to bother you.” She said as she walked closer to him. “I am fine.” Justin replied as he sat up on the bed.“Good. I have got some Intel for you.” She said as she laid down some papers on the bed. “It is not much but it’s good.”Justin looked at the papers, going through them swiftly. It was a detailed report containing photos and notes from different sources. People Jolce had called in favour from. She had been leveraging on her contacts into helping Justin.“This is great. You have been able to get information I could not get so far.” Justin said as he nodded apprec
Justin sat down on his chair in his home office as he ran his hand through his hair. He had been staring at the wall which was covered with notes and photos. He had been drawing some connections to networks that are in the political and corporate world. Everything was pointing towards a name. Viktor Langston.Viktor Langston was a man that commanded respect. He is a billionaire that has deep connections to politics as well as business where he make most of his money from. He had been able to build a successful business empire through ruthless ambition and his ability to always stay ahead in the markets. He was also known for his philanthropy in the public eye but behind all that, he was a man who pulls strings and manipulate events to his advantage.Justin have heard of him before. But he never could have thought he was involved with this unknown group. When he dug deeper into his background, there were cases of bribery, corruption and dealings that made him see him in a different way
Nelson Drogonuv was in his home office going over files Martin had dropped off earlier. They were reports of his keeping tabs on Justin since Nelson gave him the task. His network has been on the task ever since then and have been able to gather some information. He has once again proven to be ever resourceful. This was the reason Nelson tasked him with the job initially.He had been concerned with Justin and how he seems to taking care of the business of the company's branch. He had heard and seen different reports on the news but as a seasoned businessman and an elder, he knows he could not rely on the media to get his facts. He did not want to ask Justin initially so as not to make him feel like he was not doing a good job running the company but he later did, out of parental love and concern. But he still had Martin continue with the task just to be double sure of what is actually going on.Leaning back on the leather chair, he frowned as he go through the reports. He could see th
Robert had already promised Justin that he would help out in any way he can. It would be dangerous but he was going to do it. The meeting he and Justin had attended earlier, they got some Intel about a meeting where some of the big people in the business world would hold another meeting. The meeting was being held in a remote location, in a mansion on the outskirts of the city, a few distance from the metropolitan area. It was not sure if Viktor Langston would be in attendance but anyone could be there and Robert had managed to get an invitation. As he approached the entrance of the mansion which was heavily guarded, his heart pounded heavily and he tried to keep himself in check.The guards watched him closely as he got near and presented his ID. The guards scanned it with their eyes and allowed him to enter. He breathed out in relief as he thought he would be denied access. He then walk into the mansion.The inside was beautiful as expected of a mansion. Everything that was used t
What Robert had found out was some information regarding how some people were planning to make some moves on how get a stronghold in the Market but he did not exactly know what their plans were. He had told Justin about it. It felt like the usual business talks but given the recent showdown, he took it serious,while still hoping it would not be any action planned against his company but he was wrong.He just got into his office few days after Robert told him the latest Intel when he got a call. Then more calls. They were about assets of the company being frozen and his employees being physically attacked.The first call was from the finance department. The head accountant was calling to report that some of the company’s off shore accounts had been frozen. This accounts had millions of dollars in it and it’s now inaccessible. As he was about to think of what to say, his office telephone rang and he had to receive it. The call was from one of his security. “Hello sir, we have got a si
