JAMES WANE THE SECRET BILLIONAIRE Chapter 357
Chapter 357The following day, as dawn cast its first light, Williams lay awake in his hotel room, preparing himself mentally. He knew today was critical. If all went as planned, he would solidify his influence over the lieutenants and secure his role in leading the operation against Scarface. He let out a breath, steeling himself just as his phone buzzed beside him.Kane’s name flashed on the screen. Williams picked up immediately, his voice calm and collected. “Kane, what’s the news?”Kane’s voice came through, confident and steady. “Looks like the fight isn’t happening after all. One by one, the lieutenants backed out,” he said with a chuckle. “They’re starting to see you as too strong to challenge, and since you said you don’t want the top seat…they’re willing to let you lead the operation.”Williams smirked, satisfied. “I expected as much. People like you only challenge when you’re sure of winning. But since y’all agreed, I want all the lieutenants to gather their squads for a br

Chapter 358Williams took a breath and started again, laying out his modified plan. “Alright, listen up. I just got word Jack is still in Emerald Falls. He’s one of Scarface’s top men right now and if we get to him, he could lead us straight to Scarface.”The lieutenants watched him closely, some nodding in understanding.“So here’s what we’re going to do,” Williams continued. “I’ll go with Kane and a few handpicked men to Emerald Falls tonight. We’ll find Jack, grab him quietly, and bring him back. Through him, we’ll get everything we need on Scarface’s operation. The rest of you,” he looked pointedly at the lieutenants and their squads, “should use this time to prepare and train. Because when Kane and I get back, we’re hitting them hard—no hesitation, no mercy.”Finn leaned forward, skeptical but curious. “So you’re saying we’re just sitting around here, waiting on you?”Williams’s eyes met Finn’s coldly. “Not sitting around. Training. By the time we’re back, I want every squad shar

Chapter 359Finally, Kane’s eyes landed on a wiry, lanky man standing stiffly among the others. His shoulders slouched slightly under his leather jacket, and though his frame was thin, his face had a taut, hawkish quality. His long limbs looked almost too large for his body, giving him an awkward appearance, as if he might fold in half with a strong enough gust of wind.“You,” Kane called out.The lanky man’s eyes widened, and he looked around, surprised, then pointed to himself, clearly uncertain. “Me, boss?”Kane narrowed his eyes, sizing him up again, and then shook his head with a curt chuckle. “No, not you.” His gaze shifted just over the man’s shoulder. “The one behind you. Bald head.”The lanky man exhaled in visible relief and sidestepped out of the way, revealing a mountain of a man standing quietly in the shadows, blending into the lineup.The man had a gleaming bald head that seemed to catch the dim light in the room, casting a sharp contrast against his deep-set eyes and

Chapter 360James dropped onto the worn leather sofa in Gregor’s dimly lit apartment, stretching out as though trying to shake off the weight of the day.The tension in the air was thick as he thought about the risky move they’d made. “So, they bought it?” Gregor’s voice was low and tense as he crossed his arms, leaning back against the wall.“Yeah, they did,” James replied with a nod. “The way they responded, it was clear they thought it was really Ben on the other end.” He ran a hand over his face, exhaling, before letting his head drop back against the sofa cushion. “Has he eaten today?”Gregor’s expression softened slightly. “Yeah, I got him some pasta with grilled chicken and vegetables,” he replied, nodding toward a mostly empty takeout container on the small table nearby.He moved to the door, turning the lock with a quiet click before he walked back toward the center of the room, his gaze distant. James shrugged off his jacket, tossing it over the arm of the sofa, while Gregor

Chapter 361Meanwhile, Kai was already making progress with his investigation. He had learned that the gang members who came into Emerald Falls were led by a man called Scarface, and they were rivals of Sasha, the assassin.He’d gathered this information from an informant, and now he had a plan in place: head to Red Waters, dig deeper into this gang, and uncover any clues about Sasha and who might have hired her to go after Liam. Liam was certain that Eric was behind it, but Kai had his own suspicions. He was leaning toward Williams and Mr. Sterling—after all, Eric didn’t seem capable of orchestrating something like this. Still, in Kai’s line of work, you could never be too sure of anyone.His own history with Williams made him question if he was biased, but there was only one way to know for certain. He had to get to Red Waters, preferably before the police got wind of any of this.With that thought, he finished packing his briefcase, closing it with a snap. Across from him, Liam sa

Chapter 362Kai stepped off the plane at Red Waters International Airport, the cold evening breeze hitting his face as he adjusted his grip on the briefcase he carried. The air smelled different here—heavier, somehow. It carried a hint of salt from the nearby coast and an edge of grit that hinted at the city’s rougher reputation.He took a breath, pushing away a flicker of doubt. This was no place to let his guard down, especially since his goal was Scarface—a man few approached and even fewer dared to confront.He flagged down a taxi and slid into the backseat, keeping his briefcase close. As the car pulled away from the airport and merged into the main streets, his gaze drifted out the window, absorbing the city of Red Waters.The skyline was industrial, dominated by rows of aging warehouses and smokestacks. It wasn’t like Emerald Falls, with its sleek glass buildings and polished streets. Here, the buildings wore years of neglect openly, their walls stained with grime, graffiti, an

Chapter 363Kai was still deep in thought when a loud knock rattled his hotel room door, jolting him out of his reverie. Instantly alert, he stood up, eyes narrowing as he moved cautiously toward the door."Who’s that?" he called out, his voice steady, not afraid—just prepared for whatever."It’s Mr. Wibblebottom, the manager," came a hoarse voice from the other side of the door.Kai's brow raised in mild disbelief at the name. With a deep breath, he unlocked the door and pulled it open. Standing in front of him was a burly, short man with a round, protruding belly and a head nearly bald except for a few wispy tufts of hair.The man wore a faded, ill-fitting suit with the buttons straining over his stomach, and he had a self-important expression on his face, as though he owned half the city.Beside him stood a petite woman in a skimpy, low-cut dress that clung to her thin frame. Her dark, hollow eyes held a flicker of mischief, and she pursed her lips at Kai in a practiced pout.Kai's

Chapter 364Kai returned to his room, settling onto the edge of the bed as he replayed the encounter with the manager in his head. An idea began to form, lighting up his thoughts with a flash of inspiration.What if he could use the girl as bait, he might draw out Scarface’s men or other gang members. They’d probably be less on guard around her, and it could be the perfect opportunity to gather intel without raising suspicion.Acting on the idea immediately, Kai sprang up and hurried out the door, making his way downstairs. As he entered the lobby, he approached the receptionist, a stern-looking woman with sharp eyes and a no-nonsense air about her.“I need to speak to the manager,” he said, trying to keep his tone calm but urgent.The receptionist held his gaze for a moment before sighing and jerking her thumb toward the far corner of the lobby. “He’s over there,” she said bluntly, her voice devoid of any warmth. “Try not to waste his time.”Kai nodded his thanks and followed her ges
