JAMES WANE THE SECRET BILLIONAIRE Chapter 289
Chapter 289Sasha and Kai faced each other, the tension thick in the air. The hospital room was dimly lit, and their shadows danced as they prepared to fight.Sasha’s eyes narrowed, every muscle in her body ready to strike. Kai, calm and composed, stood still, waiting for her to make the first move.Sasha charged at Kai, throwing a series of fast punches aimed at his head and chest. But Kai blocked every hit with ease.The room echoed with the sound of their blows—flesh hitting flesh, the dull thud of fists against arms, and the sharp crack of bone against bone.Kai deflected a strong right hook from Sasha and quickly kicked her in the stomach. She grunted as the air was knocked out of her, but she didn’t stop.Instead, she spun around, trying to kick Kai in the head. He ducked just in time, and as she landed, he swept his leg out, knocking her off balance.Sasha stumbled but quickly got back on her feet. She jumped into the air, aiming a knee at Kai’s chest. He blocked it with his ar

Chapter 290Kai crouched beside Sasha's lifeless body, his mind focused but tinged with the faintest sense of regret.As he began to search her, Liam stood a few steps back, his eyes darting between Sasha and Kai. He was clearly still shaken, fear gnawing at him.“Is she dead?” Liam asked, his voice trembling.Kai nodded, his expression unreadable. “Yes, she’s dead.”Liam exhaled sharply. “Good. I don’t know what I would’ve done if you hadn’t shown up.Kai looked up from Sasha’s body and asked, “Where is she?”He was referring to Alisha.Liam pointed weakly towards the hallway. “She’s over there... still breathing, but she was knocked out by that... that bitch.” He gestured towards Sasha, his voice thick with anger and fear.Kai didn’t respond. Instead, he turned his attention back to Sasha’s body, his face set in a grim expression as he methodically began to search her.His hands moved with precision, first removing the face mask to reveal her true identity. Her face, now exposed, sur

Chapter 291Meanwhile, Richard sat in the reception area, his thoughts swirling as he waited for Alisha to return.The reception was quiet, the dim lighting casting long shadows across the polished floors.A few chairs were scattered around, most of them empty except for two other people—an elderly man reading a newspaper and a young woman engrossed in her phone.The night staff at the desk looked half-asleep, their faces illuminated by the soft glow of their computer screens.He glanced at the clock on the wall for what felt like the hundredth time.Alisha had been gone for too long. She had rushed back upstairs to retrieve her keys from Liam’s ward, but it shouldn't have taken this long.Richard frowned, a sense of unease settling in his chest. Several times, he considered going after her, but each time he dismissed the thought.Perhaps she was simply catching up with Liam, and he didn’t want to intrude on their moment.But as the minutes ticked by, the unease grew stronger. Finally

Chapter 292Williams was still in the car, his eyes fixed on the entrance of the hospital.The second he saw Nathaniel Grey enter the building, a cold dread settled in his gut.He clenched the steering wheel, his mind racing. It was over. He knew it deep down. Sasha didn’t stand a chance against someone like Nathaniel.He reached for the earpiece, trying one last time to contact her. “Sasha, abort the mission. Get out of there,” he whispered urgently.But there was no response, only the faint crackle of static. His heart pounded in his chest. She was either too focused on the mission to respond or something had gone terribly wrong.For a brief moment, he considered going in after her, but then he hesitated. This wasn’t part of the plan. Sasha was a professional; she knew the risks, and she had taken full responsibility for the job.Williams told himself he wasn’t going to risk his own neck for her, especially not with Nathaniel in the picture. She was paid handsomely for this, after a

Chapter 293Down the hall, in Liam’s ward, the police had begun their investigation. Officers cordoned off the area, questioning the hospital staff and taking statements from anyone who might have seen or heard anything unusual.The tension in the air was palpable, as everyone braced themselves for what might come next.Liam, still shaken from the attack, sat quietly in his room, his mind racing. Kai Nakamura was beside him, his face a mask of calm determination.Two officers, Detective Andrews and Detective Ramirez, were assigned to speak with Liam. As they approached the ward, they exchanged a brief glance, acknowledging the sensitivity of the situation.Liam Carter was not just another patient; he was a high-profile individual, and the incident involved serious criminal implications.Detective Andrews, the more seasoned of the two, knocked on the door gently but firmly. When the door opened, they were met by Kai Nakamura, who gave them a wary look."We're here to speak with Mr. Car
JAMES WANE THE SECRET BILLIONAIRE Chapter 294
Chapter 294Kai closed the door quietly after the police left, the soft click echoing in the silence of the room.He walked back with measured steps and sat down across from Liam, who was staring at the floor, lost in thought.The tension between them was thick, a mixture of anxiety, anger, and uncertainty hanging in the air.Liam had been moved to a different room already, one that was now guarded by security officers stationed just outside the door.The extra protection was meant to reassure him, but it did little to ease his mind.Despite the added precautions, Liam had already made up his mind—he would leave the hospital later that day.The idea of staying any longer, even with only three days left until his official discharge, felt unbearable to him.The night's event had shaken him so deeply that he couldn’t imagine spending another night in the hospital, no matter how secure it was supposed to be.He finally broke the silence, his voice heavy with frustration. “So, who do you t

Chapter 295As Alisha slowly regained consciousness, her eyelids fluttered open, revealing the sterile white ceiling of the hospital room.The room was quiet except for the soft beeping of the machines monitoring her vitals. She felt disoriented, her thoughts scattered.The elderly nurse who had been monitoring her noticed the movement and immediately came to her side.“Alisha, can you hear me?” the nurse asked gently, placing a hand on her arm.Alisha’s eyes slowly focused on the nurse. “Where… where am I?” she asked weakly, her voice barely a whisper.“You're in the hospital,” the nurse replied with a calm, reassuring tone. “You had a bit of a scare, but you’re safe now.”The nurse leaned in closer, checking Alisha’s pulse and then adjusting the IV drip in her arm.She took out a stethoscope and placed it on Alisha’s chest, listening carefully to her heartbeat. Satisfied with what she heard, she moved on to check her blood pressure, scribbling notes onto a chart hanging by the bed.

Chapter 296By morning, the news of the incident at Sky Care Hospital had spread like wildfire throughout Emerald Falls.Every media outlet was covering the story, each with its own version of events. Some claimed it was a targeted assassination attempt on Liam Carter, while others speculated it was part of a broader conspiracy.The headlines buzzed with sensationalism, and the town was rife with rumors.Upstairs in his study, Eric Wood was buttoning up his shirt, preparing to head to the office.He had been trying to ignore the growing buzz outside, focusing instead on the day ahead. Just as he tightened his tie, he heard Mary’s voice calling from downstairs.“Honey, have you seen the news this morning?” she asked, her tone a mix of curiosity and concern.Eric paused, his hand hovering over his tie. “What news?” he called back, trying to sound casual as he walked toward the door. The truth was, he had a sinking feeling about what she might be referring to.“About Sky Care,” Mary repl

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 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 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 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 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
