I Have The Power To Heal The World 46 Cutting Ties
Leo looked at Melissa with a mixture of surprise and disappointment. She was obviously not happy about marrying this guy but she was still going ahead with it. "Why? I honestly thought you had some integrity. Why would you be doing this simply for connections" Leo asked with reproach in his voice."I didn't come here to be judged Leo and I'll appreciate it very much if you just respected me and not try to make me feel any worse than I do right now" Melissa said to him."Alright, alright, but if you wanted someone who would hide the facts and sugarcoat the truth then you shouldn't have come to me" Leo said as he laid off on reproaching her."I know, this was a big mistake" she said as she stood up to leave but a thin piece of paper beautifully designed with red and gold colours fell out of her handbag and Leo was at her side to pick it up in a heartbeat."A wedding invitation? Wait, so you were going to leave here without giving me this?" Leo looked at her in shock."Your presence at
I Have The Power To Heal The World 47 Visitor In The Night
Leo walked into his hotel room tired as ever and flopped onto his sofa like a log of wood. He was now occupying two major positions of power; vice president of the Jones Corporation and CEO of LD Allied.He had to make decisions for both companies and it was wearing him down. He forced himself off the sofa and managed to remove his tie and suit jacket before collapsing into the king sized bed. He thought over the events of the day and went through all the happenings categorically in his head but his weary body soon convinced him into deep sleep and he slept comfortably through the night until a slight knock on his door woke him up. He jumped off the bed as his paranoia levels have been insane since Arthur sent those assassins after him. He pulled out a small knife from out of a book on his bedside table and creeped towards the door.He got to the door and hid behind it for a while until he heard the soft knock again then he quickly opened it and rushed out with his knife poised to st
I Have The Power To Heal The World 48 Tragedy
"No!" Leo yelled as he felt for a pulse. The bullet had struck him in the in the chest and with Leo's expert medical knowledge he could tell that it had hit the heart. There was nothing he could do at that moment to save Mr Jones from certain death but he didn't want to acknowledge that."Aaah!" He yelled in fury and then he heard the sound of footsteps clattering away in a hurry. He could hear police sirens around but that didn't stop him. He leaped over cars and cut corners as he chased down the shooter with murderous intent.The shooter was a slightly heavy man and he stood no chance in the world against Leo and he dived straight and struck him in the back. They both fell over and rolled for a split second before Leo was back on his case.He wrapped his strong arms around the shooters neck and began to squeeze with his anger in full display as he roared."Step away from him and put your hands in the air!!" He heard a shouted command come from a powerful voice behind him."Get away
I Have The Power To Heal The World 49 David
"David?" Helen asked in shock as the police officer took a few steps closer to her.He was a handsome tall man with tanned skin and black hair and his sunglasses with gold rims added a lot more to his appeal. He spoke to her in a warm and friendly manner. "Helen, wow it's been what? Five or six years since I saw you last. I'm so sorry about your grandfather, he was a good man and he didn't deserve to be-""Don't give me that shit David, who shot Leo?" She recovered her composure and anger smoothly but she couldn't hide how uncomfortable she felt about the whole situation."Well, Helen, I did but there was a good reason for it" He answered her after he got some distance between them. He knew they had a not entirely pleasurable history and he wasn't about to give the most powerful woman in the city a reason to come for his head."What?!" Helen glared at him with obvious murderous intent but she took a few deep breaths to calm herself down and clear her head."Give me one reason I should

"Dead or arrested?!" Damon asked in shock."Yeah, all dead except five who are currently in police custody" Johnson replied in a downcast tone."How is that possible?" Lex asked in shock. "If they arrested anyone for killing Jones I should have heard of it by now""They said it was Leonardo Dubois who foiled most of the attacks and subdued most of them before one last one managed to shoot at Jones. He was in the process of strangling the shooter to death when he was shot by the police who arrived at the scene and he is currently in surgery at the hospital" Johnson said this time in anger. He had given the assassins an incredible sum as down payment and then they were killed and arrested. He hated wasting money even more than he hated Jones."We have to get them quiet because if they are questioned then they may implicate you Johnson""I know. Lex can you arrange for the prisoners to be transported to another prison and I'll make sure they never see tomorrow" Johnson replied."What abo
I Have The Power To Heal The World 51 First Target
Leo frowned as the white flourescent bulb above his hospital bed. He blinked once and blinked again before he could get his eyes adjusted to the new light. He turned away from the bulb and tried to roll off the bed but he failed as pain shot through his body."Damn" he cursed as he fought through the blinding pain."You know, for a minute there you had me start thinking you were immortal and then you spend a whole day in an Intensive Care Unit for one single bullet wound" Helen said to him with smile from the side of his bed as he groaned in pain."Helen, how are you doing?" He asked with concern and sadness in his voice as he looked at her."Don't" she replied while closing her eyes."Don't what?" Leo asked in confusion."Don't look at me with pity, I don't want to be pitied" she said with conviction as she opened her eyes back."I'm sorry" Leo said as he sat up in his head again while fighting all the sensations in his body."Promise me one thing Leo" Helen said in a shaky voice."
I Have The Power To Heal The World 52 Bad Decisions
Leo stood under the rain without an umbrella as the undertakers placed Mr Jones' casket gently into his grave. The affair was grand and every one of any real influence was at the funeral. Leo could spot musicians, movie stars, business men, heirs, athletes et cetera all littered around.He watched from afar as Helen threw in a shovel of dirt while crying before letting others do the same. Leo had refused to pour dirt but he had joined the undertakers to carry the casket most of the way.Helen didn't have an umbrella over her head either and she shivered for some time under the rain before David swooped in and offered her his coat and held his umbrella over her head. She smiled at him which made Leo slightly angry. Her grandfather was barely in the ground and she was smiling with the guy who used her to blackmail him into getting him his job back.Leo shook off his anger though and began heading back to his car to escape the rain. He was halfway to his car when he heard the footsteps c
I Have The Power To Heal The World 53 Truths, Or Lies?
Leo and Kyrian stood under the tree watching solemnly as the funeral ended and everyone got into their cars to head for the reception at the Jones Family Mansion. Leo couldn't help but notice that Helen car was being driven by David but he chose not to give it much thought.'We aren't married to each other and she's a big girl. She can do what she wants' he reassured himself in his mind as he watched her convoy drive away."Mr Dubois tell me what makes you think your side can come out on top in the coming events?" Kyrian asked as soon as there was no one else left in the private cemetery which belonged to the Jones Family."That's a tricky question but I don't feel obligated to answer it" Leo replied him not willing to give out information about their strategies to the enemy."If we were playing chess and Helen Jones was the Kinh?, what chess piece do you think you would be? Because there can't be two kings on the same side of one chess board" Kyrian asked again but Leo already knew h

Leo and Kyrian stood with to their hands handcuffed to each other before the large portrait of Sarah Jensen previously Sarah Homer in the living room of her expansive oceanside mansion. He was surprised at how homely the building looked as it was all warm colors and bright decor which was in very sharp contrast with his own home which was mostly black and white furniture and filled with technology. The only gadget in sight in the living room was the large TV and he couldn't spot a single security camera around. He loved the way the home felt secure and welcoming and he was sure that even though Helen said nothing about it, she was worried by the lack of privacy in their own home. He felt she had been even happier since they had moved out of the house.He loved the way the home felt secure and welcoming and he was sure that even though Helen said nothing about it, she was worried by the lack of privacy in their own home.

115 Kyrian's Daughter
Sarah, Kyrian's daughter sat in her baby's nursery desperately trying to shush her from her screaming. She had already fed her twice but the child just kept on wailing at the top of her lungs. She had fired the baby's nanny a few days ago after she found out that she was having an affair with her husband. She had kicked him out of the house too and he had slept on the front porch for three nights in a row knocking and screaming and begging her to let him in. She promised to call the police each time his noise woke her up. It was probably the wedding contract she had made him sign before they got married that made him so desperate to win her back. He had signed away thirty to forty five percent of his business empire if they were ever to get divorced depending on the length of the marriage, currently she was eligible to take up to thirty nine percent of all he had without even lifting a finger.The affair had began from the night she hired the nanny and she didn't even know until she

114 The Meeting
Kyrian groaned as he got off the helicopter. At his age he didn't enjoy sitting in the sticky helicopter seats any longer. Old age took away certain luxuries from him he would never get back."Good day sir" the security guard greeted him as he stepped down onto the grass."Good day. Where's my car and escort?" Kyrian asked while responding curtly to the greeting."Right this way sir, just follow me" the guard said and began to lead the way to where the cars were parked. At a comfortable speed they should be able to reach Dartford City before night fall where he had dinner reservation with Leonardo Dubois.

113 Flashback
Gordon wiped his brow, the steam from the pots blurring his vision. The clatter of plates filled the small kitchen of St. Jude's Orphanage, a rhythmic echo of lives lived in shadows. He had just finished scrubbing a particularly stubborn pan when the sharp whistle pierced the air, cutting through the dull mood of the evening routine. Instinctively, he froze, the scrub brush still in his hand, unsure what was happening.“Come on, Gordon! We need to hurry!” shouted his roommate, Ethan, bursting through the door with a wild look in his eyes.“What....What’s going on?” Gordon asked, his heart pounding as he dropped the brush and followed Ethan into the hallway. The other boys were already racing past them down the hallway , they were laughter and shouts a mixture of excitement and anxiety which left Gordon more perplexed .“It’s a billionaire!” Ethan exclaimed, his voice barely above a whisper, yet it crackled with energy. “He’s coming to adopt a kid from the orphanage. They say he’s go

Hazel stepped of the first ladder of the airplane, the cool French air brushing against her skin. She inhaled deeply and smelled the fresh unpolluted air, a rare smell in Dartford. She lived the countryside but she had a mission to fulfill there . She walked back into the plane to meet Jason, the pilot who had flown them across the Atlantic.“Thank you, Jason. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate this,” she said, handing him an electronic card. “The details for the rest of your payment are right here. Just follow the instructions.”Jason took the card, "How do I know that this card will pay me?" Jason asked. "Seriously man, you're doing business with billionaires and you're asking if you will get paid a couple millions?" Hazel asked with a slight chuckle and Jason nodded nervously.“No problem,Just keep him safe. That’s all that matters now.” he replied before she left the cockpit.James stood beside her, clutching a small backpack to his chest. At five years old, he looked so sma

111 The Fugitive
Gordon Fisher crouched behind a stack of shipping crates as he scanned the harbor. The moon hung high illuminating the transatlantic ship moored at the end of the dock. The weight of desperation pressed heavily on his chest. Just hours ago, he had been a man with a plan; now, he was a fugitive, the walls closing in with every passing moment.Leonardo Dubois had shattered his world with a single announcement. He had told the truth about Gordon’s infiltration into his private mansion to the public. The man who had killed his father now stood untouchable, declaring to the world that Gordon had broken into his multimillion-dollar mansion, seeking vengeance for a crime that had haunted him for years. The plan had been foolproof—or so he thought.He had designed the security system for Dubois's home, crafting a web of protection that he believed would be impenetrable. But when he finally made it into the house, his plans spiraled out of control. Instead of finding Dubois's wife, Helen, in h

110 Kyrian
Kyrian Homer sat comfortably in the plush armchair of his holiday mansion in Spain, the golden rays of the late afternoon sun filtering through the grand windows. The ocean outside shimmered. At seventy-three, Kyrian had seen the world shift in ways he never thought possible, but today, as he watched the news, a chill raced down his spine, igniting memories he thought he had buried deep.The host’s voice droned on, a mix of politics, celebrity gossip, and the relentless drumbeat of tragedy. But Kyrian’s attention sharpened when the anchor introduced a segment about Leonardo Dubois—Leo, as he had always called him. After all the drama following Scar's death and with them regaining control over the city Kyrian had finally decided to take his hands off the steering and he left his company to his son and moved to Spain he had only been back to the States twice, one for Leo's wedding and another for James' christening.As the camera panned to Leo’s face, now framed with salt-and-pepper hai

109 Goodbyes
Jason stared open mouthed at the man who stood before him. He had a chance to see the most vulnerable side of one of the richest men in the world. He didn't know what Leo was trying to hide his child from but he knew that it must be something or someone dangerous."I brought half your payment in full. My friend Hazel will be traveling with you and when you drop them she will get you the remaining half of the money" Leo said as he motioned to Hazel. "Where exactly an I going to drop them?" Jason asked Leo but he shook his head in reply. "I don't know. The only people who know are Hazel and James who chose the location. Hazel won't tell you the destination either until you are out of the country's airspace to avoid any sort of device picking up communication" Leo said a little bit paranoid but of course he was paranoid, if a deranged killer with a personal vendetta against you snuck into your house so easily with the sun if killing your wife, you'd be terribly paranoid."Alright then

"What the fuck" Leo cursed as he stumbled out of his vehicle. He saw Hazel and Ross's vehicle reversing quickly and stopping a few feet away from the hitman's crashed car. They carefully stepped out while keeping their heads down. Leo got to the car them and forced the car door open. He took one good look at the half conscious hitman before reaching over and snatching the gun out of his hands"This moronic unprofessional is why you two were running over thirty minutes late?' Leo asked them with a slight smirk and they both laughed."You should have seen yourself when you realized we were being pursued. You practically made that turn like a formula 1 driver" Ross joked before he walked up to Leo and wrapped him in a hug. "Any one hurt on your side?" Leo asked with concern but they both shook their heads. "What of Helen and James?" Hazel asked a little worriedly but she smiled when she saw Helen helping James out of the car and waving at them."They're fine. We have to get out of her
