Robert was determined and resolute, but at the same time, he doesn't want Marcus to be the one who is calling the shut; it's either he obeys his rule or not. After keeping quiet for some seconds, he decided it was time to make his request. He stood tall and firm, his eyes never wavering as he addressed Marcus, his adversary in this tense and delicate situation, without being told he knew he needed to show his superiority.“Now I'm going to give you just one condition, and if you refuse, just know the deal is off.”Marcus' eyes widened a little bit. He knows what Robert was trying to do, but it would not work. Nobody would leave the building alive if he can't get his daughter. Nobody would leave alive.He said to himself.“What is your condition?”Robert smiles when he knows a hungry man doesn't have time to check how the food is being cooked. He knows Marcus is in a very desperate situation now, so he can't say no.“Release my daughter now, and you can come get yours after that,”
At that moment, Marcus and Zachary know they can't waste any more time. Both of them entered the zone immediately, their presence immediately drawing the attention of everyone around.The tension in the air was palpable as all eyes turned toward them. Some of them couldn't believe their eyes; they thought both Marcus and Zachary would be shaking in their pants now, but they looked confident as if they were going to fight with some little group of children. It seems they don't know what's coming their way.Marcus had one thought in his head, which was to rescue Ivy by dispatching the men standing in their way and killing Robert. At that moment, both Marcus and Zachary moved forward with a confident look on their faces that suggested they were more than ready for the challenge ahead.The men, too, were growing frustrated with how Marcus and Zachary were carrying their self. They are going to teach them some manners, and in their next life, they will learn how to beg and be loyal.The
Without a second thought, Ivy snatched up the brick and hurled it at Robert with enough strength. Just as Robert's finger tightened on the trigger, the brick struck him squarely on his hand. The impact caused him to jerk, and the bullet intended for Marcus's head narrowly missed him and hit him on the back Marcus stood in his position for some seconds before falling to his knees.Zachary was shocked to hear the sounds of the gun and see the young master going down on his knees. He wanted to quickly run to the young master, but the remaining men immediately blocked his way.Robert watched as Marcus fell to his knees.However, his face twisted in pain. A smile curled on Robert's lips, a cruel, satisfied grin that contrasted starkly with the dearness in his eyes.As his gaze shifted to Ivy, he couldn't believe the young girl dared to interfere in his plan, and he even interrupted him. She had rolled a brick at him, and Robert couldn't believe it. If it hadn't been for her, he would hav
Zachary wasted no time as he hoisted the young master onto his back; that was the only thing he could think of at that moment.with little Ivy clutching tightly to her father's hands, and she walked alongside Zachary. With swift, determined strides, they ran out of the factory, leaving Marilyn behind. Marilyn is still was shock because of what she just witnessed.Marcus murdered her father right in front of her, and how he did it.He's a beast.She couldn't move a muscle at that moment; her entire body was paralyzed by the shock. Zachary knew she can't escape, not in the situation she was in. Even if she managed to escape, he would find her. Even if she managed to escape and travel somewhere far away, he would catch her, no matter what.They came outside of the factory, and Zachary and Ivy quickly got into the car. Immediately, the car engine roared to life, and they sped towards the hospital. He couldn't waste any more time.The urgency of Zachary’s actions underscored the critica
Marcus walked right into Director Wesley's office without knocking. The look on his face showed how angry he was, and he smashed the white envelope on the desk and yelled right away.“Explain that!”When Wesley looks at Marcus's face, he stays calm. This jerk had the nerve to bash into his office without knocking. Marcus is lucky that he is having a good day.“This is what it means: You're fired! Get your ass out of this company!”Marcus raised his eyebrows and asked.“How can I be fired when I'm a member of this family and my work has been the lifeblood of this company?”He got to work early this morning and found this on his desk.“I need a good reason for why I'm being fired.”“Because you're not the owner! I think that's a good reason.”Wesley sat back in his chair and didn't pay any attention to Marcus's face.“Bang!”Marcus hit the table hard with his hands and moved his head forward.“This company should have died a long time ago. I gave you guys all my money to help, and now yo
Marcus eyes open but his vision was blurring, he was still dizzy and his head was heavy, why would this people kidnapped him, what did he do, could this also be Wesley plans. Marcus battles to get on his feet, and he heard a thud sounds from his back, he turned and an old man was kneeling close to him. “Young master, please forgive me for asking those nincompoop to bring you here, they didn't know your identity”Marcus was a little surprised by the man words, what is this man saying, he looks around to see if anybody was standing beside him but nobody was. he face the middle age man and pointed at himself. “Are you talking to me, please you got the wrong guy, what young master are you talking about”The middle age was tounge tied by his words, he took a glance at Marcus necklace and he wasn't putting on the Hamilton family necklace, this will be difficult to explain now. He stands up from his knees. “Young master, everything will be cleared soon”The middle age man step to the ta
Everyone mouth open slightly in shock. They can't believe the madman's words. How can he say something this stupid and demand something ridiculously crazy? He is a drunkard! He is definitely under the influence of alcohol.“You are a bastard!” Hazel's face was asking plenty of questions; she knew what Marcus just said: it wasn't possible. Marcus wants to gamble if truly he's the lost heir; he would like to take the risk now knowing they are going to force him to divorce Hazel anyway, which he will do for Ivy to have a better life; she deserves the best. Lady Charlotte finally regained herself after thinking about something else. Since the bastard refused to divorce Hazel even when he was sacked this morning, she sees this as a perfect opportunity to get him out.“And if you can't, you will divorce Hazel immediately and leave this family.” Everybody's face brightens up hearing Lady Charlotte's words; she is undeniably the tigress of this family. The perfect way to kick this bastard
When Marcus was done, he stood up. He felt like this was a dream, but it was real. Robert walks into the room just in time. He has a black card and car keys in his hands.“Young Master, this is a card I got for you, and it has no limits.” Marcus asked in a surprised voice, “How much is in there?”“Just 10 billion dollars; I know it's not much. I've already made an order for 100 billion dollars card, so please manage this before it gets here.” Marcus wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry. Before he collected the card, he stood still for a while.“So this card has 10 billion dollars on it.” Marcus asked Robert just to confirm. Robert sighed heavily and said.“Young Master, I know this is too small. Please just manage it before the 100 billion dollar card arrives.”Marcus was confused at this point.“May I have your phone number, young master?” Robert asked. Marcus quickly gave Robert his number, and then Robert pointed the car keys at Marcus.“I don't want any cars, and I want to keep a
