(A Few Hours Later)"Master, Mia, and the others should be able to make it to North Hampton by next week." Azure Dragon turned to look at Jordan who had his head on the seat with his eyes closed."Mmmmm.." Jordan nodded as if he was in a deep sleep.Azure Dragon had a frown on his face seeing this, but he didn't say anything. He didn't know why, but since they left the medicine store, Jordan had been in deep thought.Now, it was already evening and he was still that way. So it made him wonder what the heck was wrong with his master."Did you find out who that old man is?" Jordan suddenly opened his eyes and turned to Azure Dragon looking at the latter."Huh?" Azure Dragon froze upon hearing what Jordan said.His master had not instructed him to do anything, so he was quite shocked when he heard that."Master." Azure Dragon called, knitting his brows as he slowly pressed on the brakes of the car, bringing it to a halt."You don't have to stop the car, I'm fine." Jordan's eyes flashed o
"Sister, I'm going to bed." Sarah sighed and stood up from the dining, walking into the room.The night had been quite a memorable one, reuniting with her sister and brother-in-law.Since their parents had lost their lives in an accident, Zoey had been the one taking care of her. She had been gone for about five years, so somehow, she missed her sister."Alright, you should go get some rest." Zoey nodded while flashing a smile at Sarah.Though she was smiling, there was a hint of sadness written all over her face, which made Jordan, who had been observing her, frown slightly."Is there anything wrong? You look a bit unhappy?" Jordan questioned right after Sarah's figure disappeared into the room."We ran into a bit of problems at the company today, but I should be able to solve it." Zoey sighed, not wanting to hide anything from Jordan.She didn't intend to tell him, but since he had noticed, there was no point hiding it from him.After all, he was the one who helped her get back to t
(The Next Day)"This is the place brother-in-law," Sarah said, a hint of excitement could be felt in her voice as the car came to a stop.Jordan looked at the building and alighted from the car with Sarah who had a smile on her face."Don't you want to choose another place to work at?" Jordan muttered, his lips twitching as he looked at Sarah, wondering why she was going to want to work at this company of all places.He wouldn't have been bothered if it were other companies, but no, it was this one. The company the Garrison family had taken away from him.This company was the root of his problem. Though he wouldn't say it was the cause of his problem, rather, the Garrison family were the greedy ones.They wanted control of the company and wanted to take it away from him. Many times before the incident, his foster father had requested that he transfer the company to the family, as a payback to what they had done for him.After all, he was just an orphan they had picked up on the street
Soon Jordan and Azure Dragon walked into one of the rooms in the mansion.Immediately they walked into the room, the two were hit with the pungent smell of medicines and others.In the center of the room was a large bed. A figure lying on the bed. But the figure looked so skinny that if one didn't look well, they wouldn't know someone was lying on the bed.The only thing sounding in the room were the machines connected to the figure's pause and the rest."Sir, here's the boiled water and towel you asked for." A feminine figure sounded as a figure walked into the room, holding a bowl of hot water and a new towel."Good," Jordan nodded."Place the water on the table and bring an extremely cold water in another bowl; also, bring another empty bowl," Jordan instructed."Go do as he has instructed." Azure Dragon nodded at the girl who was staring at Jordan in shock."Azure Dragon, disconnect the machines and remove all sorts of things connected to her body." Jordan turned to Azure Dragon a
"Master, what was that back there?" Azure Dragon looked at Jordan standing by the car, asking with confusion written all over his face as he walked towards him."Your mother was poisoned," Jordan explained, knitting his brows appearing to be deep in thought."Poisoned?" Azure Dragon froze not understanding what Jordan was talking about.How was his mother poisoned? He just couldn't make any sense out of it.But then he knew that since Jordan had said something like that, then it meant that she was poisoned."I don't understand." Azure Dragon looked at Jordan, hoping he was going to explain more of what he meant to him."What Organization did we happen to encounter last before we came back?" Jordan asked instead."The Shadow Reapers?" Azure Dragon muttered, knitting his brows as he looked at Jordan wondering what the connection behind the question and what he wanted to know was.But he still didn't ask too much and just answered the question."What's their specialty?" Jordan continued
Inside Room 305 at The Sky Hotel. Amelia moved backwards slowly, her face red, looking much like she was intoxicated.In front of her was a young man with a wide grin on his face. He was a handsome-looking young man, and his well-structured figure would make ladies fall heads over him."Daniel, please stop!" Amelia pleaded, trying to regain her sanity as she looked at the young man."You don't have to resist, my love." The young man grinned wildly, showing his row of white teeth."This...this isn't what we came here to do..." Amelia stuttered, still backing against the wall.She could feel herself slowly losing her sanity as she felt a strange kind of heat spread through her body.The heat was so much that it was threatening to make her remove her clothes."Then what did we come here to do?" Daniel snickered, and a wide smile appeared on his face as he walked slowly toward Amelia."I..." Amelia stuttered, not knowing what to say.Talking too much was making her lose control faster, an
"Master," Azure Dragon called, looking at Jordan who was standing in front of the window, looking down at the city below.After they left the hotel, they came to another hotel. At that moment, Amelia was sleeping peacefully on the bed while Jordan and Azure Dragon were waiting for the effect of the Aphrodisiac in her body to subside."Azure Dragon, are you still worried about what we discussed?" Jordan chuckled lightly, Turning to look at Azure Dragon who was standing right beside him."Yes, master." Azure Dragon nodded, he couldn't hide this anymore from Jordan."I just don't want them to attack my mother." He continued."Then you can ask some of the soldiers to come and protect her." Jordan nodded slightly, knowing what Azure Dragon wanted."Also, I was just giving a hypothesis, it won't be that easy for the Shadow Reapers organization to find you since they haven't been able to for over the past years." Jordan continued."You're not in their top priority. So there's no need to get
"Isn't that Bryan?" Jordan looked at Amelia with a knitted brow."Yes, he's the one." Amelia nodded, recovering from her initial shock."Then let's go and see what the heck he's yelling about." Jordan stood up and walked toward the door with Azure Dragon following behind."Brother...." Amelia called, not knowing what to say.She knew that Bryan and Jordan were not on good terms. Even before Jordan was sent to prison, they were still on good terms, talking more or less that it was he and her father who were behind the fact that Jordan was sent to prison."What do you want?" Jordan turned to look at Amelia, wondering if she didn't want him to go."I don't think it would be best if we go together, I think I should go back home alone." Amelia thought for a while before finally speaking up."You don't have to worry about anything. I'm not going there to cause any trouble. I just want to make sure that Bryan and the others won't blame you for what happened." Jordan refused.There was no way
