Tyler drove Marcus to the location where Marcus was supposed to pick up the money without wasting any time; he knew that was what he could do at that moment. The pickup was successful, and Marcus retrieved the bag of cash without any issues. After ensuring the money was securely in his possession, Marcus decided to call the number Willie had given him. He took out his phone, dialed the number, and waited for Willie to answer.The phone rang twice before Willie picked it up.“Hello?”Willie's voice was cool and, at the same time, serious. He wasn't surprised at how quickly it took Marcus to get the money; he knew Marcus would not dare disobey when his wife was with them.With a worried voice, Marcus uttered.“It's Marcus. I have the money,” Marcus said, keeping his voice steady despite the tension he felt.There was a brief silence on the other end before Willie spoke again. “Is it all there?”“Yes, it's all here. Every cent”Marcus confirmed.Willie paused, seemingly considering som
Marilyn's cheeks were raised, almost covering her eyes. Her head was full of nasty thoughts of what she was going to say to Hazel that would hurt Hazel and at the same time make her cry to the point she would want to kill herself. without being told she could tell Hazel she loves her husband, and at the same time her husband loves her, she needs to come in between them. She started wondering how she was going to have s*x with Marcus; she's going to have a great day; she could feel it already.She faces Willie with a smiling face and uses her hands to order him to bring the chair closer. She wants Hazel to see her face when she is talking to her.Willie at that moment obeyed Marilyn immediately. He didn't want to give Marilyn any room to start suspecting him because his best hands were not here. He hasn't been able to reach them ever since he sent them to get the identity of the man Marcus met with, but they have not responded or even answered his calls.Marilyn was finding it diffic
Willie’s patience at that moment was wearing thin.His tone grew even more menacing; he couldn't believe Penelope would have the guts to demand anything from him. She is supposed to keep quiet and do whatever he wants, but she is doing more than herself now and he can't tolerate that.“Listen to me, Penelope. If you don’t put Ivy on the phone immediately, something very bad will happen to Hazel. Now, don't say I didn't warn you; you have one minute to do so.”Penelope's face was drained of color. Her eyes widened in shock, and her breath caught in her throat. She felt a wave of fear running around her entire body, but she forced herself to stay composed. She couldn't risk Hazel's safety; she just couldn't risk it. With a shaky voice, she called out.“Ivy! Come here, please.”Ivy, who walked towards her with bright eyes, hurried into the kitchen. She looked curiously at her grandmother, who held the phone out to her with a strained smile. “It’s for you, sweetheart.”Penelope said, her
Tyler raised his head, his face filled with anger and, at the same time, determined that the young master wants to entrust another mission to him, and this time he was not going to fail him no matter what.He placed his hands on his chest, and he quickly bowed his head. He had never been this determined before.“Young master, I can assure you that everything ends today, regardless of who they are. Everything ends today.”Marcus knows Robert must have made his move or gotten some information already; soon everything will be exposed; all he needs now is the call so he can make his moves.At that moment, his phone vibrated, and Marcus quickly took it up and opened it. It was a text message from an unknown number that contained a location and with some words “come here alone”Marcus's eyebrows push up immediately, and he knows it's showtime. He quickly shows Tyler the location.“Here is the location. I will be going first in a cab. They are waiting for me outside. They said I should come
Marcus slowly walked closer to the front of the car. Something tells him the documents they wanted him to see would contain some pictures inside.It might be Hazel's picture; couldn't it be they had done something to Hazel? At that moment, Marcus squeezed his fist so tight that his lips started shaking. He wouldn't tolerate that if he sees any marks on Hazel's face, he's going to kill all of them.He did everything they wanted him to do, and if they dared lay their hands on her, all hell would break loose.Marcus slowly opened the bus and collected the documents he was supposed to collect. “I have it now.”Marcus said it with a bit of anger written in his voice.The man responded.“Good, now open the documents and read them properly, then sign them immediately.”Marcus nodded his head as he carefully opened the documents.He was frozen in his position as he started staring at the document in his hand. The legal jargon swirled before his eyes, making no sense to him even though it l
At that moment Marcus knows he had reached the point of no return; he knows it's either he obeys and does as he planned or they get their way. He gazes at the document in front of him; he knows it was more than just a piece of paper—it was a lifeline, something that can destroy him if it goes wrong; it's the key to his family's survival. He took a deep breath, the weight of the moment pressing heavily on his shoulders, and time was not longer on his side.Furthermore, he said it with a determined voice.“Okay, okay, I will sign the document,“ and I need you to assure me my wife is safe after that.”He said, his voice tinged with more confidence; he can't back down now.The man opposite him, standing far away, who had been orchestrating this tense scenario perfectly fine, couldn't help but smile, and he nodded approvingly. At that moment, it was clear to him that Marcus understood the gravity of his situation. He couldn't believe he was raising his shoulder and playing stubbornly whe
Marcus's car stopped at the location and the introduction started he entered the warehouse.Without a second thought, Marcus entered the abandoned warehouse; he already knew what was going to happen, and he wouldn't go down without a good fight. They had better not touch Hazel; if anything happened to Hazel, the devil would be celebrating already because many souls would be coming to hell today. Marcus entered the warehouse. The place was empty, but he could feel the presence of so many people hiding. He wondered why they were hiding. “Where is my wife?”Marcus's voice vibrated the premises; his phone suddenly rang; he brought his phone out; it was Willie calling again. Marcus wanted to pick up the call, but he stopped when he heard footsteps from the upper floor. Somebody dressed in black came out from the upper floor. He placed his hand on the parapet wall and looked down at Marcus, who was on the floor. His cheeks rose to his eyes. “Mr. Marcus, you have done well in fulfill
Marilyn's heart missed a beat. She had never seen anything like this before, but she couldn't think of surrendering or letting Hazel go. She has to kill Marcus and Hazel, no matter what since she can't get what she wanted. “I will pay you double the money; attack this son of a bitch”The men were hesitating when they saw their boss was on the floor, but after hearing the money had doubled, the fear inside them vanished, and rage took over. Ten men rushed to Marcus; they were no longer surrounding Marcus, so they wouldn't end up killing the men on the other side. Marcus remained static on his spot as he faced Marilyn. “Since you have chosen this path, then it's over.”The men instantly fired their guns at Marcus. Marcus disappeared from his spot again; he would appear close to Hazel if he could, but his varnishing step had limited coverage because he hadn't mastered the skill fully. If he had, he would be able to rescue Hazel immediately. Now, he has to quickly finish these men
