JAMES WANE THE SECRET BILLIONAIRE Chapter 310
Chapter 310After what felt like an eternity of lurking in his car, Morris finally saw the police vehicle roar to life, its lights flashing as it began to drive out of the park.Morris sat up straighter in his car, his mind racing as he prepared to execute his plans. In the distance, he could still see Eric Wood, his wife and daughter, and Gwen—Mr. Sterling’s baby mama—standing together.He could see Eric helping his wife and daughter into their car, a normal family scene that felt painfully mundane given the chaos brewing beneath the surface.Eric got into the front seat, and started the car.Morris had been waiting for this moment but as the car back doors opened, his stomach twisted with anxiety.Just as he was about to make his move, Gwen unexpectedly joined them, slipping into the backseat.A surge of frustration washed over Morris. He quickly pulled out his phone and dialed Mr. Sterling’s number, his heart pounding as he waited for the connection.“Mr. Sterling, it’s Morris,” h
JAMES WANE THE SECRET BILLIONAIRE Chapter 311
Chapter 311The phone was on loudspeaker, and Jaxon, who was seated nearby, had heard every word his father had exchanged with the kidnappers.Ken was beside him and they're both smoking. The smoke from their cigarettes curled into the air, mingling with the tense atmosphere of the room.Jaxon’s eyes flicked up briefly from his phone but returned to it as though the whole conversation didn’t concern him. Finally, his father will pay dearly, he thought.Across the room, Jackson, the kidnapper with the prominent scar across his cheek, ended the call and tossed the phone onto the table with a careless thud.He turned around, his expression cold and calculating, and he ordered the two other kidnappers who were holding the boy, “Take the kid away.”The two men nodded without hesitation, each grabbing one of the boy’s arms and dragging him into the back room. The child’s muffled cries faded as the door shut behind them.Jackson watched them go, his eyes narrowing slightly, before walking ov

Chapter 312“I think you might want to hear this,” Eric said as soon as the call connected, his voice tense. James groaned, rubbing his eyes as he rolled over in bed. “What is it?” he asked groggily, his voice thick with sleep. He had barely slept the night before, his mind racing over everything that was happening. The stress of work, the drama surrounding EMC, and now this sudden call from Eric—it was all too much to handle.Eric didn’t waste time. “It’s about a kidnapping case,” he said quickly, his words rushing out like water breaking through a dam. “It happened yesterday. Mary called me—”“What?” James interrupted, sitting up suddenly in bed, his heart pounding. “Mary? Claire? Are they okay? What happened?”Eric sighed, hearing the panic in James' voice. “They’re fine. They weren’t harmed, but…” He paused, and James could hear the hesitation, the weight of what was coming next.“But what?” James demanded, anxiety creeping into his voice as he kicked off the sheets and swung his

Chapter 313When James arrived at Diamond Ville, the guards at the entrance immediately recognized him. Though they knew him as a close VIP associate of Eric’s, they had no idea that James was the actual owner of the entire estate.As he approached in his sleek Bugatti La Noire, the security detail waved him down with their usual respectful demeanor. They straightened up, their movements sharp and precise. One of the guards stepped forward and greeted him with a polite nod."Good morning , Mr. Clarkson," the guard said, his voice formal yet familiar. "It’s been a while since we’ve seen you around here."James forced a tired smile, his mind still preoccupied with the kidnapping. “Yeah, it’s been a long night,” he replied, his voice betraying a hint of exhaustion. He handed over his access card, the one that would allow him into the inner sections of the estate. The guard took the card, but as he scanned it, he glanced up, noticing the weariness in James’s face. “Everything okay, sir?

Chapter 314"Hello, Gwen. There’s someone here to see you," Eric said as he stepped in. "He once helped me save my family when they were kidnapped."At the mention of that, Gwen looked up immediately.James entered fully into the room, his footsteps quiet as he moved toward the woman sitting on the bed, her shoulders shaking with soft sobs. She didn’t notice him at first. He approached slowly, not wanting to startle her. "Excuse me," he said gently, "I’m James Clarkson. Eric’s friend."She lifted her head, her face streaked with tears. She wiped her eyes quickly, trying to compose herself. Eric stood beside James, offering her a kind, reassuring smile.“I’m so sorry for what you’re going through,” James said, his voice soft but filled with concern. “Eric told me what happened, and I wanted to see if there’s anything I can do to help.”The woman sniffed, nodding slightly. "Thank you... I just... I don’t know what to do. My baby is out there, and I haven’t heard anything."James took a

Chapter 315Liam Carter stood before the mirror, fastening the last button of his shirt. His face was calm, but his mind was already racing. He glanced over his shoulder at Kai, who was lounging in an armchair, buried in the pages of a thick book. "Mr. Sterling and Williams. Anything about them?" Liam asked, straightening his collar with a sharp tug.Kai didn't look up immediately, turning another page before responding. "Still caught up in their shady dealings at EMC." His voice was low, detached, as though discussing some unremarkable triviality. "Same old schemes."Liam's jaw tightened as he slid into his tailored jacket, brushing imaginary dust off the sleeves. "This past week, we haven't been at our best. They might think we've forgotten about them." His lips curved into a cold smile. "Hmm… they just wait. They have no idea what's coming."Kai's eyes flicked up from his book, studying Liam’s reflection for a moment. He could sense the tension, the desire for vengeance simmering

Chapter 316As they drove through the city toward Carter Comb, the morning sun cast a warm glow over the bustling streets. Cars rushed past, and the sounds of the city created a lively backdrop. “There’s a meeting scheduled for 10 a.m. with Mr. Collen and the board members, I guess I should remind you that since you’re back,” Kai reminded him. He glanced at Liam as he navigated through the traffic.“Yeah, I remember,” Liam replied, his tone casual.“You know, Collen disrespected me while you were in the hospital. He had the audacity to undermine my decisions as acting CEO. The staff weren’t any better, either. They looked at me like I was some kind of intruder.”Liam chuckled softly, keeping his eyes on the road. “Is that right? I guess they didn’t get the memo that you were running things in my absence. What did Collen say?”“He just kept belittling my authority,” Kai replied, shaking his head. “I could tell he was annoyed that I was in charge. He kept asking for you, acting like I

Chapter 317Kai Nakamura sat at his desk, quietly flipping through a stack of documents. He had just resumed his role as Liam Carter’s personal advisor, and Liam had joined the board for the meeting. The air in the office felt still, almost too quiet, especially after everything that had happened recently.His phone rang, cutting through the silence. It was Gregor, the private investigator he had hired. Kai answered the call, his voice steady.“Sir, it’s Gregor. I’m ready to start the investigation on the attacks on Liam’s life. But I’m going to need access to some of the security footage from the company,” Gregor said, his tone calm but firm.Kai leaned back in his chair, considering. “You can come by the office to pick it up. I’ll make sure you get what you need,” he replied, glancing at his watch. "See you in a bit."“Alright, sir.”Ten minutes later, there was a knock at Kai’s office door. Kai looked up, straightening his posture. “Come in,” he called out.The door opened, and in

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 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
