JAMES WANE THE SECRET BILLIONAIRE 217
Chapter 217Williams drove quickly to the location Mr. Sterling had sent him. The destination was an old, abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of town.The structure loomed menacingly, its weathered walls covered in graffiti and ivy, the broken windows creating an eerie atmosphere.The air was thick with the stench of decay and mildew. Rusted metal beams and stacks of discarded crates littered the area, casting long shadows in the dim light filtering through the cracks.As he stepped inside, the faint sound of water dripping echoed through the vast emptiness.He saw Mr. Sterling standing with Morris Huggo and a group of thugs who were lounging nearby, smoking and chatting amongst themselves.Their laughter and gruff voices filled the air, adding to the sense of menace. The thugs were a rough-looking bunch, their faces hardened by a life of crime.In the center of the room, Harris Drums lay sprawled on the cold, hard floor, tied up and barely conscious. Blood stained his clothes, and h

Chapter 218*NEXT DAY*CARTER COMBKai briskly walked into Liam's office, finding him on the phone with Alisha. Liam was smiling sheepishly and said, "You're welcome."Kai frowned and signaled to Liam that he had an urgent message. Liam, noticing Kai's urgency, said to Alisha over the phone, "One moment, I'll call you back," before disconnecting the line. He turned to Kai and asked, "What is it, Kai? You were interrupting something big here.""You're busy flirting around while the security of Carter Comb is under siege," Kai replied, his tone sharp."What do you mean?" Liam asked, getting up from his seat and walking over to the window. He looked through to catch the sunlight in his eyes and then turned back to face Kai.Kai shook his head in disappointment. "Someone tried to hack into Carter Comb. They’re still trying, using the most sophisticated software in the world. If not for my intervention and updates, all your information and data would have been out in the open.""What?" Lia

Chapter 219Eric sat at his desk, his fingers drumming nervously on the polished wood surface. He couldn't shake the uneasy feeling that had settled in his stomach after his conversation with Liam Carter. The phone call had been brief, but the implications were heavy. Liam had threatened him for something he hadn't done, and now he felt cornered.The legality of the situation was undeniable. He had signed a document that left him vulnerable to Liam's manipulations. The weight of that realization pressed down on him like a leaden blanket.Eric sighed deeply and leaned back in his chair, staring at the ceiling as if it might offer some divine inspiration. What was Liam planning? And more importantly, what could he do to protect himself? The room was silent except for the faint hum of the air conditioner and the rhythmic tapping of his fingers on the desk.After a few moments of contemplation, Eric reached for his phone and quickly dialed James' number. He needed to talk this through wit

Chapter 220James picked up his phone when he saw Ellen's name on the screen."Hey, Ellen," he greeted warmly."Hi, James," she replied, her tone equally warm. "How are you holding up?"James sighed. "It's been a rough day. How’s everything with you and your folks?""We're doing well," Ellen said. "My dad’s pre-campaign meeting is going strong. He’s been meeting with a lot of important politicians, and my mom is right by his side, supporting him every step of the way.""That’s great to hear," James replied. "I’m really proud of you all. I know how much work goes into these campaigns.""Thanks, James," Ellen said sincerely. "But I actually called because of Lana. She’s really worried about you."James frowned. "Worried about me? Why?""She thinks you’re angry with her after what happened at her office," Ellen explained. "She asked me to call and talk to you. She feels terrible about the whole situation."James sighed again, rubbing his temples. "I’m not angry with Lana. I’m just frustr

Chapter 221The next day, just as Williams and Mr. Sterling had planned, Williams decided to investigate Peter, the juror that Barrister Harris Drums had mentioned before he was killed.Williams was convinced that Harris wasn't lying. Facing death can make anyone reveal their deepest and darkest secrets.He disguised himself in a plain suit and glasses. He went to the court early in the morning, trying to blend in with the crowd. He looked like any other person attending the trial, but his eyes were sharp, scanning the room for Peter.Just as he arrived at the courthouse, Williams was greeted by a security guard standing near the entrance. The guard, a burly man with a stern face, eyed him with suspicion.Williams approached with a casual smile. "Good morning. I'm looking for a Mr. Peter, one of the jurors. Could you point him out to me?"The guard's eyes narrowed as he scanned Williams from head to toe. "Why are you looking for Peter?"Williams chuckled lightly, trying to seem as non

Chapter 222After a while, Williams chided himself not to rely on thoughts but rather take action.He immediately took out his phone and dialed Mr. Sterling's number, just as they had planned beforehand.Mr. Sterling picked up on the second ring. "Yes?""Mr. Sterling, it's Williams. I just spoke to Peter. You'll never believe what I found out," Williams began, keeping his voice low as he paced near his car."What is it?" Mr. Sterling's voice was tense with anticipation."Liam Carter. He's the one pulling the strings. He's the one who replaced the initial judge," Williams revealed. “He knows all about our plan and right now I'm suspecting that his next move will be to buy a share at EMC. Once he's in, he'd try to eliminate us and take over the operation.”There was a brief silence before Mr. Sterling cursed under his breath. "Damn it. We need to do everything possible to prevent Liam's plan, even if it means killing him."Williams responded quickly, "Mr. Sterling, killing Liam Carter w

Chapter 223After the call with Williams, Mr. Sterling quickly gave the details of Peter's car to Morris Huggo, who was in the front seat, ready for action."Blue sedan, license plate PTR 558. Middle-aged guy with graying hair," Mr. Sterling relayed the information.Morris nodded approvingly, always ready to carry out Mr. Sterling's evil intentions. "Got it. I'll handle it."Mr. Sterling added, "One more thing. Before you do it, make sure you retrieve all the dollar notes in his possession. I don't want any traces coming back to us."Morris gave a reassuring nod. "Consider it done."They continued the drive, scanning the road ahead. After a few minutes, Morris spotted Peter's car coming from the opposite direction. "That's him," he said, pointing.Mr. Sterling glanced at the car and then instructed the driver, "Trail him. Keep a safe distance. We need to find a discreet location."The driver nodded and fell in behind Peter's car, maintaining a careful distance. They followed him throu

Chapter 224Liam drove alone to see Richard Carl at the hospital, dressed in a brand-new collared shirt and plain jeans.This was the second time he had visited Richard Carl in the hospital. The first time, he wasn't given access to Richard's ward because, according to the nurse, it was Richard's resting hours. Richard had been undergoing vigorous treatments ranging from physiotherapy to surgeries to heal him from paralysis. During that visit, Liam had only managed to have a conversation with Alisha before driving her home and then heading to his own mansion.Today, however, was different. He had been given a specific time to come and see Richard. He entered Sky Care and parked his car in the garage, feeling a mix of anticipation and concern.As he walked into the hospital, the sterile smell of disinfectant filled his nostrils. He made his way to the reception desk, where a friendly nurse greeted him."Good afternoon, Mr. Carter. You're here to see Mr. Richard Carl, correct?" she aske
