Chapter 246

As 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

    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

"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

"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

"Come pick me up."Williams agreed, "Alright, give me about 30 minutes. I'll be there soon."True to his word, within 30 minutes, Williams arrived at the airport. He was dressed casually, with a face mask to conceal his identity. He spotted Sasha and walked up to her."Sasha," he greeted warmly, hugging her. "Good to see you."She hugged him back tightly. "It's good to see you too, Williams. Thanks for coming to get me.""Of course," he replied, taking her bag. "Let's get you settled in."They made their way to his car, and Williams drove them to Sky Suite Hotel. Once there, he went to the front desk and booked a room for Sasha."Here we are," he said, handing her the room key. "Room 203. I made sure it's one of the best."Sasha smiled appreciatively. "Thank you, Williams. You've done well."She went closer t

    Chapter 252As they returned to Sasha's hotel room, Williams began to outline the details of the operation. "Here's everything you need to know about the job," he started, his voice serious.Sasha sat on the bed, fully awake now and listening intently. "Go on," she said."The target is in Sky Care Hospital. The same person who owns Sky Suite Hotel owns the hospital, so it should be an easy pass for you since you've stayed here for a night and have seen their security pattern. I’ve provided you with a map of the building and the image of the target," Williams said, handing her a folded paper and a colorful photograph of Liam.Sasha took the image from him and placed it on the table, unfolded the map and studied it. "Alright. What’s the plan?" she asked."First, you need to enter the hospital and stalk a nurse until she goes to the restroom. Once she’s in there, knock her out and immediately put on her uniform. Then, head down to the ward where Liam Carter is being held. Once inside, be

You reacted as if you were sure about it."Williams hesitated for a moment, not wanting to involve Alisha or reveal too much. "My instincts told me," he replied, trying to sound confident.Sasha raised an eyebrow, clearly not convinced. "Instincts? What if your instincts are wrong and it's not the ward?""Trust me," Williams insisted. "It's definitely the ward. Just trust me on this."Sasha went silent for a moment, her eyes studying his face. "I saw someone walk into that ward, and you reacted. You tried to cover your face. Who is that girl?"Williams felt a wave of anxiety but kept his composure. "It's nothing. Just focus on the task at hand."Sasha wasn't buying it. "Tell me everything you know so I can do my job properly. If there's someone involved, I need to know."Williams sighed, realizing he needed to say something to satisfy her curiosity. "Alright, the girl mig

His gray suit was slightly rumpled from the day, but his sharp features remained composed, his dark eyes glinting with calculation. In his hand, he clutched the folded paper Gregor had given him at the Starlight Diner hours earlier—Lana Wane’s Greece itinerary, a key to unlocking the Wane family’s secrets.

    Chapter 470: Shadows of DeceptionThe fluorescent lights of the Starlight Diner buzzed faintly, casting a harsh glow over the checkered linoleum floor and worn red booths. The air smelled of greasy burgers, stale coffee, and a hint of cigarette smoke that clung to the walls despite the no-smoking sign.Gregor sat in a corner booth, his broad shoulders hunched over a chipped mug of black coffee, the steam curling upward like a ghost. His hair, neatly combed, glinted under the lights, and his weathered face was set in a mask of calm, though his sharp gray eyes flicked to the diner’s entrance every few seconds. As James Wane’s loyal butler and covert operative, Gregor was no stranger to clandestine meetings, but tonight’s rendezvous with Kai Nakamura felt like walking a tightrope over a pit of vipers.His phone sat on the table, the screen dark but heavy with James’s last text: Give him the itinerary.

She clutched a tablet, her posture professional but her eyes curious. “Mr. Clarkson, the meeting’s in an hour. Need anything prepped?” Her voice was crisp, but a slight tilt of her head betrayed her interest in his mood.James flashed a disarming smile, masking the storm in his mind. He leaned back, tossing the pen onto the desk with a casual flick. “Just the financials, Ana. And… any word from Patel’s team on the virus cleanup?”Ana crossed the room, her heels clicking softly on the hardwood floor. She stopped at the desk, tapping her tablet to pull up a file. “Nothing official. Mr.

His sharp blue eyes, usually calm, flickered with unease as he stared at the muted TV screen mounted on the wall. The news ticker blazed: “EMC VIRUS NEUTRALIZED: COMPANY RESTORED TO FULL OPERATIONS.”James’s jaw tightened. Yesterday’s headlines had been a whirlwind of relief for EMC—customers flooding back, stock prices climbing, and employees celebrating. But to James, it felt too neat, too sudden. He’d long suspected Williams Jesse, the cunning tech manager, and Mr. Sterling, the manipulative head of the board, was behind the virus that had crippled EMC’s systems

He lay still for a moment, listening to the low hum of traffic outside. On the bedside table, the news channel played on mute, flashing headlines across the screen: “EMC VIRUS NEUTRALIZED,” “CUSTOMERS POUR BACK IN,” and “COMPANY STABILITY RESTORED.”Williams propped himself up on one elbow and reached for the remote, clicking off the TV. He studied the blank screen for a heartbeat, then swung his legs over the edge of the bed and stood. The past few days had been a masterclass in deception, and now the world believed the danger was gone. But in truth, the real virus—silent, undetectable, and far more dangerous—lay hidden in the deepest layers of EMC’s network.He dressed quickly in a crisp white shirt and charcoal slacks, buttoning cuffs with precise motions. His reflection in the mirror showed a calm, confident man. No one w
