They could sense Levi was low-spirited so they didn't bother him or tease him.They collected the artifact which was wrapped tightly and quite large in a square shape leaving them to guess it was a painting.The mission went quite smoothly till they got to Julius' territory. Hades switched off the car's engine."From here, we have to go by foot. They will never allow unauthorized vehicles inside."Everyone got out and Levi remembered his role because he reached out to help Sabre out.However, he didn't notice how she flushed or the looks others directed at him."This is quite heavy," Muse grumbled as he lifted the artifact with a comrade.Eclipse patted him as they walked forward. "It's only a matter of time till we deliver it. We just have to get to the other end and give the artifact to the owners."They were stopped by guards at the entrance. Hades quickly presented the fake IDs Muse had arranged since he was more familiar with how the place worked.The guards observed the IDs and
"You..." The gang leader couldn't complete his sentence as he coughed. Others were alarmed to see him coughing out blood.Their leader was one of the best fighters they had and he had a stature that easily towered over most people.How could this man with a scrawny stature can do this with just a strike?"We can do this the easy way," Levi continued in a calm voice. "You let us pass and we leave never to return to your territory or we do this the hard way."Gulp!One could feel the tensed feelings from the gangsters. They were after all just a local gang and had never been against a formidable opponent like this.However, one had the nerve to ask, "What's the hard way?""Simple," Levi's lips curled up in a smile although it was hidden beneath his mask. "We deal with you and you end up begging us to leave."Gulp!"You fools!" The gang leader yelled when he saw they were hesitating. "He did this to me and you still want to let him go. None of them must step out of this place alive!""You
Switch!Levi stopped at the doorway as the lights flickered on. He didn't expect to meet Brooklyn awake with a bundle of files she had brought home on the bed stand beside her.She had been chatting with someone on the phone when he walked in."You are back," She smiled as she sat up.Her eyes slowly scrutinized his appearance, brows arching to see the all-black outfit he was wearing. Thankfully, he had removed his mask or it would have been difficult to explain."Hmnh hmm," He sat by the edge of the bed and peeled off his shoes.Brooklyn could sense something was wrong from his low tone so she moved closer and wrapped her hands around his waist.Her hair brushing against his neck as she asked, "What's wrong? Rough day at work."Actually she was a bit curious at what he did but she didn't want to pry his boundaries. When he was willing to tell her, she would be ready to listen to him."I..." Levi trailed off as he removed her arms slowly. He was sweaty right now and didn't want it to r
Seeing the stunned look on her face, Levi arched a brow. He gestured to her again and said, "Where is the chain?"Perhaps she didn't understand him the first time."Uhmm actually I didn't have my breakfast before coming here. Shall we order something first?" She smiled nervously.Levi didn't think too much of it and motioned for her to order something.When she passed the menu to him, his eyes glazed over a section where banana bread was written and they darkened."Just order for yourself."Sabre frowned and returned the menu to the waiter. She felt a bit irritated at how impatient he looked and didn't want to seem like the one delaying him.So she reached into her bag and brought out the chain. She stretched it to Levi who collected it without hesitation."It's mine," He nodded as he put it away.The waiter returned with her order and as she set the table, Levi stood, dropping a wad of dollar notes.It was obviously more than the price of what Sabre had ordered because the waiter was
"Boss lady, what about Tyson's? I do feel their proposal was quite on point and profitable so—" The director laying out his complaint to Brooklyn suddenly paused as the conference doors swung open.This was because of the men passing by who also came to a stop when the doors opened.They were more focused on the unfamiliar one with a paper bag in his hand.Levi looked at the group of people behind Brooklyn with a thoughtful look. They seemed to have just had a meeting and were apparently unsatisfied with the outcome of the meeting.Besides, if he heard clearly, the director just mentioned Tyson. Is it the same Micheal Tyson he knows?Does Brooklyn have any business transactions with that man? His eyes darkened slightly at this thought.That was the same man Zoe had cheated on him with and he wouldn't want Brooklyn to have any form of association with him."You are here?" Brooklyn's expression showed that she was both pleased and surprised to see him.The director who was about to ques
Brooklyn was heading home when she received a call midway and had to return to the company. On the other hand, Levi contemplated hard.Just as the car took the turning to the Hernandez's family residence, he suddenly ordered, "Turn around."The chauffeur was startled. "Huh sir?""Turn around," Levi repeated with a stiff face. He clutched the key in his hand and thought; he had to check it out.So the chauffeur turned the car around and headed to Brooklyn's villa.After about an hour, they came to a stop and Levi rushed out of the car. The chauffeur was left behind feeling confused."Good day young master.""Good day sir."Levi nodded absentmindedly at the greetings of the servants as he headed to Thomas' room.When he got there, he checked through the closet and found the safe box.That was when he realized when he held it in his arms, his ring glittered even more brightly.Click!He set the box on the table and inserted the key to the lock hole. The box lid gave way immediately and no
Levi saw that the machine had beeped red showing he wasn't granted access so he tried to reach for the card to leave and avoid further embarrassment.However, the banker attending to him snatched back the card and urged him."Sir, you should try another finger. It might be a problem with our device. Try the second finger."Levi didn't argue with him and did just as he said but—Beep![Access not granted]The smile on the banker's face finally disappeared. It was quickly replaced with a cold expression."Call the security!" He suddenly yelled in a cold tone.Levi was taken aback. How? What? Why??? He only wanted to try to see if he could gain access to the card. Why was the security being called?In a calm tone, he demanded, "Can I have my card back?""You imposter!" Someone slammed him from the little crowd that had gathered."How dare you walk in here with our bank card and try to pose like someone else?"This bank card can never be replicated so they quickly concluded Levi must have
"Sir, is that all your request?" The bank manager wiped off the sweat from his brows again.He had thought the young master was going to act difficult like the other wealthy clients he had encountered but his requests were actually very simple."Yes," Levi stepped away and glanced at his watch. He saw that time had already gone within a twinkle of an eye so he wanted to leave.The manager quickly escorted and as they walked, he dutifully informed him,"Sir, if you have other huge withdrawals, transfers or perhaps more investments you want to make, you don't have to come all the way to the bank. You just have to give me a call. I'll handle everything for you."Levi's lips tugged slightly. So this was the feeling of being served and treated like a wealthy person. This feeling was heavenly."Okay. I'll keep that in mind."The manager was relieved at his response and even sucked up to him."Also young master, as your personal account manager, I'll check into more bonds, stocks and shares t
