JAMES WANE THE SECRET BILLIONAIRE Chapter 243
Chapter 243Liam flickered his eyes open, his head pounding loudly. He couldn't quite remember anything and didn't know where he was.For a few moments, everything seemed blurred, and there was a beeping sound all around. He looked around and saw himself connected to the beeping machine and then realized he was in the hospital.He relaxed, and the memories began to come back to him. He checked his body and saw the slightly burnt and bruised areas that were covered. He felt pain for the first time.How long had he been passed out? He couldn't tell. He tried to call out to someone, but his voice was really low.After a few minutes, a nurse walked into the room carrying a tray. When she saw him, she quickly placed the tray on the table and called out his name, "Mr. Carter, you're awake!"Liam tried to speak, "How long... have I been out?"The nurse gestured for him to hold on and said, "Don't panic, Mr. Carter. You're alright. Let me get the doctor." She quickly rushed out to fetch the d

Chapter 244Meanwhile, back at EMC, James was in his office, organizing materials for the upcoming staff meeting, when his phone rang. He glanced at the screen and saw it was Doctor Avery calling. Without hesitation, he picked up."Doctor Avery, good to hear from you," James greeted."Hello, sir. I have some good news for you. Liam Carter is finally awake," Doctor Avery informed him.Relief washed over James. "That's wonderful news! How is he doing?""He's stable and showing signs of improvement. He'll need time to recover fully, but he's out of immediate danger," Doctor Avery explained.James got up from his desk and started pacing his office, feeling a mix of emotions. "Thank you so much, Doctor Avery. I know I asked a lot of you, but I really appreciate everything you've done.""It's my job, sir. Besides, you and your family have always been good to me. I’m glad I could help," Doctor Avery replied warmly.James nodded, even though Doctor Avery couldn't see him. "I can't thank you e

Chapter 245The news of Liam Carter's recovery spread throughout Emerald Falls like wildfire. Within a short amount of time, Mr. Sterling caught wind of it. He, Williams, and Morris Huggo were gathered in his lavish office, the tension palpable as they contemplated their next move."This is a problem," Mr. Sterling said, pacing the room. "Liam Carter surviving the fire was bad enough, but now he's recovering. We can't let him get back on his feet."Williams, lounging on the couch, nodded. "Agreed. But that guy who nearly killed us last time—he's formidable. We can't risk going back there ourselves."Morris, slouched in an armchair, added, "We need another approach. Something more covert."“What is the plan? Spill it out!” Mr. Sterling was almost yelling.Williams leaned forward, a glint in his eye. "How about we hire someone? An assassin, but not just anyone. A female hired killer. She could disguise herself as a nurse and finish him off. Nobody would suspect her."Mr. Sterling stoppe
JAMES WANE THE SECRET BILLIONAIRE Chapter 246
Chapter 246As Williams left Mr. Sterling's office, his mind whirled with thoughts of his own ambition.He hadn't forgotten his initial plan to eliminate Mr. Sterling and everyone else once their mission was successful. The way Mr. Sterling had been commanding him lately annoyed him, but he kept his cool, acting loyal to prevent any suspicion.Liam was their immediate problem. Once Liam was out of the way, he would turn his sights on James. After dealing with James, Mr. Sterling would be next, allowing Williams to make away with all the money in EMC.Walking down the dimly lit hallway, Williams considered who would be the perfect person to disguise as a nurse and eliminate Liam in the hospital. Then, the name Sasha crossed his mind.He remembered how they had met years ago in Redwater, a small but bustling town known for its underground dealings. Williams had been on a job, a high-profile hit that required finesse and stealth. Sasha had been assigned to the same target by a rival fact

Chapter 247Sasha put her gun away and stood up from her seat, walking to the back of Williams' chair. She cuddled him from behind and inhaled deeply, savoring his scent. "I've missed you so much," she whispered.Williams turned his head to face her, a cautious smile playing on his lips. He wrapped an arm around her neck, pulling her closer. “I have missed you more.”Their lips met in a passionate kiss. Sasha's kiss was fervent, tasting of alcohol and desperation. Williams reciprocated, knowing he couldn't afford to push her away now.He stood up, lifting her effortlessly and placing her on the hard table. Their lips remained locked, and her hands moved quickly to unbutton his clothes. He tore at hers, his face buried in her breast, kissing and sucking hungrily.Her breasts were as sensitive as he remembered, and he nibbled on her nipples, drawing a moan from her lips. Williams shrugged off his jacket and white shirt, his hands moving to pull down Sasha's trousers.The room was filled
JAMES WANE THE SECRET BILLIONAIRE Chapter 248
Chapter 248As they walked into the hall, Williams and Sasha saw a bloodied man tied to a pole, screaming loudly as Jack beat him mercilessly with a baton, commanding him to speak.The rest of the gang members were either sitting or standing and drinking, or smoking while watching the scene.Williams and Sasha approached, and Sasha signaled for Jack to stop. Jack stepped aside, giving them a proper view of the man."He’s a member of the Black Vipers," Sasha told Williams. "They killed two of our boys last week.""Hmm. If it were up to me, I'd have torn him limb by limb by now," Williams replied, and folded his arms.Jack, tall with a scar across his cheek and already pissed with Williams for sleeping with Sasha, interrupted sharply, "Shut up on what you don’t know and mind yourself. This doesn’t concern you."Sasha sensed his hostility towards Williams and told him sternly, "Enough."Turning to Williams, she asked, "So, what do you have me do with him?" She was clearly trying to pleas
JAMES WANE THE SECRET BILLIONAIRE Chapter 249
Chapter 249The next morning, Sasha woke up to find Williams already dressed and about to leave. "What are you doing?" she asked in a sleepy voice.Williams, buttoning his shirt, looked at her. "I'm leaving. I need to report to work."Sasha's eyes cleared, and she sat up, almost annoyed. "Why so soon? I thought you were staying longer."Williams sighed and turned around, gesturing with his hands for her to understand. "I need to be at work. It's very important."She frowned, and he could see her displeasure written all over her face. He went to the bed and sat beside her, holding her by the shoulders. "Listen, the task at hand is really important. We need to carry it out immediately. I need you to fly into Emerald Falls before tomorrow."Sasha's expression softened slightly. "Before tomorrow?"Williams nodded. "Yes. Once everything is suc
JAMES WANE THE SECRET BILLIONAIRE Chapter 250
Chapter 250One of Sasha's men burst into the room, his face pale and his breathing labored, as he found the two bodies. "Boss, what happened?" he gasped.Sasha, who was seated on the bed, looked up with an icy stare. "What took you so long?"“I'm sorry, Boss. I went to deliver the package to Boris.”There was a brief pause and then he continued. "Scarface," he stammered, pointing to the lifeless body sprawled on the floor. "It was Scarface. Was it him?"Sasha's expression darkened. "Dispose of the body," she commanded coldly. "And call for an emergency meeting with the lieutenants. We need to address this immediately."The man, still in shock, nodded quickly. "Yes, boss. Right away." He hesitated, then blurted out, "How did Scarface know your location? This place was supposed to be secure."Sasha stood up, her eyes blazing wi

Chapter 397Morning broke with a dull glow, illuminating the quiet safe house nestled deep in the woods. Inside, tension hung thick in the air. Williams was standing near the window with a phone pressed to his ear, speaking in a calm but calculated tone.“We’ve got your son, Charles,” he said, his voice steady. “But we haven’t located Jaxon.”On the other end of the line, Mr. Sterling’s voice cracked with emotion. “Charles? Is he safe? Are you sure?” Relief flooded his tone, but it was quickly shadowed by anxiety. “What about Jaxon? Did you find him? Is there anything—anything—leading up to him?”Williams let out a quiet sigh, one that sounded more like practiced patience than genuine concern. “That’s all we could manage,” he replied. “The men who took Jaxon still have him, and from what we’ve gathered, they plan to kill him if there’s any interference.”Mr. Sterling was silent for a beat, processing the grim news. Then, his voice rose, tinged with panic. “What do I do now? How do I

Chapter 396
Chapter 396James and Gregor stepped out of their concealed position in the underbrush as the taillights of the SUV disappeared into the darkness. The cool night air was eerily silent now, broken only by the faint rustling of leaves and the muffled sounds of wildlife in the distance. The ground beneath their boots crunched softly as they moved toward the aftermath of the chaos they had just witnessed.Gregor’s eyes scanned the scene, his face expressionless as he took in the lifeless bodies sprawled across the area. Three of them, including Ben they once held, lay motionless, their weapons discarded and their blood staining the dirt beneath them.Gregor crouched beside one of the bodies, briefly checking for a pulse, though he already knew there was none. Standing, he shook his head and muttered, “Well, that’s the life they’ve chosen for themselves.”James, standing a few steps behind him, remained silent for a moment, his sharp eyes darting around the scene. The faint glow of the moo

Chapter 395
Chapter 395The shadows of the dilapidated bunker stretched long under the moonlight as Williams and his team lay in wait. They had taken up position hours earlier, tucked inside Jaxon’s sleek sports car, the dark, polished metal blending seamlessly into the night. The air inside the vehicle was stifling, thick with tension and the faint metallic tang of gun oil. Every man was armed and ready, their nerves wound tight, waiting for the right moment to strike. Williams sat in the driver’s seat, his hands resting casually on the steering wheel, though his eyes never left the rearview mirror. Beside him, Kane sat rigid, one hand gripping Jaxon’s arm firmly while the other rested on the stock of a shotgun lying across his lap. In the cramped sports car, Tom and Dorian crouched uncomfortably in the trunk, their weapons at the ready, waiting for Williams’ signal.The silence inside the car was shattered when headlights cut through the darkness. A single car approached, its rumbling engine e

Chapter 394
Chapter 394The dense canopy of the forest loomed overhead, casting long shadows over the makeshift campsite where James and Gregor had been holed up for days. The air was damp, thick with the earthy scent of moss and pine, and the distant call of nocturnal creatures echoed through the stillness.Gregor sat cross-legged on the damp ground, his eyes glued to the small tablet in his lap. A blinking red dot pulsed steadily on the screen—the nano tracker they’d planted on Ben’s phone.For three grueling days, they’d followed that dot from one hideout to another, staying just far enough away not to be detected. They’d spent their nights in the car or in the bush, catching only brief moments of sleep between shifts of surveillance.Tonight was no different, and Gregor’s tired eyes burned as he watched the screen, hoping for any sign of movement.James lay stretched out on the ground beside him, his jacket pulled over his face to block out the faint moonlight filtering through the trees.

Chapter 393
Chapter 393Jack paced back and forth in the dimly lit room, his gun laid out on the table as he meticulously assembled and armored it. Each metallic click echoed in the stale air, punctuating the tense atmosphere.They had to switch hideouts when Ben rejoined them, in case he was being tailed. Jack carefully considered the situation and concluded that bringing him back into the operation as an additional resource would be a wise decision, just in case they encountered any unexpected challenges but he made sure they switch hideout from time to time. But their main exchange point was still the old bunker because it has a lot of escape routes and underground tunnels.Ken was nearby, double-checking their supply of ammunition, while Denver and Ben lounged on an old, battered couch, their excitement barely contained.“Finally, we’re getting out of this shithole with a bundle of millions,” Denver said to Ben, leaning back with a smug grin. He flicked a discarded cigarette butt into the cor

Chapter 392
Chapter 392The evening sky was a dusky orange, streaked with long trails of purple as the sun dipped below the horizon. Williams parked the sleek, black car that Mr. Sterling had secured for him—a high-profile Lamborghini that was both remarkable and practical for what was about to go down.The tinted windows gleamed faintly in the fading light as he stepped out, dressed in a dark hoodie and jeans. He adjusted the baseball cap on his head and pulled it lower to obscure his face further.Kane was already waiting near the edge of the gravel lot, leaning casually against a rusted lamp post that barely flickered to life. His stance was relaxed, but his eyes darted around, sharp and alert. A few paces away, Tom and Dorian lingered by the entrance to the abandoned warehouse, their conversation low but punctuated with short laughs.Williams approached Kane with purposeful strides. Without a word, he gestured for Kane to follow him a short distance away from the others.“They ready?” William

Chapter 391
Chapter 391Andrew’s pen hovered over the page. “Eric Wood? The CEO of EMC?”“Yes,” Sterling said, his voice steady now, laced with conviction. “He’s had a vendetta against my family for months. He’s jealous of our success, our influence. And now, with everything happening at EMC, I wouldn’t put it past him to stoop this low. My two sons were kidnapped in a sparse of a few weeks. Is it not strange?”Andrew tilted his head, his expression skeptical. “That’s a serious accusation, Mr. Sterling. Do you have any evidence to support this?”Mr. Sterling sighed heavily, as though burdened by the weight of his own claim. “Not concrete evidence, no. But think about it. He has the resources, the motive. And I heard through some… private channels that he’s been meeting with unsavory characters lately. People who could easily pull off something like this.”Andrew jotted a few notes, his pen moving quickly. “I see. I’ll look into it. But you understand we can’t act on hearsay alone.”“Of course, of

Chapter 390
Chapter 390As soon as Mr. Sterling ended the call with Williams, he hurried to his closet, throwing on a sleek navy suit and matching tie. His hands trembled slightly as he adjusted the knot, but he steeled himself, taking a deep breath.This wasn’t just a favor for Williams; it was a calculated move to get his two sons back. Grabbing his keys, he rushed out of his mansion, the elevator ride to the ground floor feeling agonizingly slow.When he finally stepped outside, the cool morning air bit at his face, but he paid it no mind. His black sedan waited at the curb, and he climbed in, starting the engine with a growl. As he sped toward Sky Suite, he rehearsed the lies he might need to tell to retrieve Jaxon’s car.The towering Sky Suite hotel loomed ahead, its modern glass facade gleaming brightly under the early morning sun. As Mr. Sterling approached the entrance, his stomach tightened. The sight of two patrol cars parked near the lobby entrance made his pulse quicken. Uniformed off

Chapter 389
Chapter 389As soon as Kane received the message from Tom that Jaxon had finally broken under the pressure and confessed, he immediately pulled out his phone and dialed Williams. His tone was sharp, clipped, and direct as he relayed the crucial information.“He finally talked,” Kane said without any preamble. “He’s given up Jack’s location—some bunker near the old docks.”Williams, on the other end of the line, didn’t respond right away. The faint sound of tapping, likely his pen against his desk, filled the silence. “Good,” Williams finally said, his voice steady but tinged with calculation. “Did he say anything about how many men Jack has with him?”“Yeah,” Kane replied. “Three, including Jack himself. He said one of them ran away. It’s a small crew.”Williams let out a low hum of approval. “That’s manageable. We’ve got the numbers, four to three. Here’s the plan,” he said, leaning forward in his chair. “You’re going to prep Jaxon to lead you straight to the bunker. He’s our key. Ma
