"It still surprises me, sir, that you knew they were following you," Max remarked as he parked the car after they got back home."Yes, about that, now they think Tristan Coleman is at a restaurant somewhere haha," Tristan laughed, he was quite sensitive, especially in these times, and knew when he was followed to avoid it. Tristan was tired even though he hadn't done so much during the days. He got into the house and threw himself on the couch where he slept off while watching a Harry Potter movie.He woke up a few hours later, and it was already 5 pm. He went to check on Carl first, to confirm if the young man was well fed and taken care of. He didn't want to hand him over to the police looking thin and malnourished.Surprisingly, Carl begged to be released, he swore to assist Tristan reveal the big boss with what he knew. He claimed to have told Detective Briggs the truth and all he knew.But Tristan refused to be fooled easily, he couldn't trust just anyone because of his current
Dialing As the phone rang, Tristan paced from one side of the room to the other, a sanctimonious grin on his face as he waited for the recipient to pick up the call.He was rather delighted and shocked at the same time when he heard the news that those men caught in the security cameras after the police chief's death were caught in real life, detained and were on their way to florida.The recipient did not pick up for a second time, but Tristan tried again. This was the only link he had to the big boss and was not about to give up yet.It rang for a few seconds before the person picked up the call.“Hello?” The voice said.Tristan was taken aback, the voice sounded way too familiar to be the person he had in mind, he raised a brow and tried to remember where he heard that voice but couldn't recall in that moment.“Hello, am I speaking with you, the boss?”“Tristan Coleman!” The voice exclaimed and quickly disconnected the call.“Fuck!” Tristan nearly threw the device on the ground, b
Once he was done with the voicemail, both the clerk and Paul had their jaws dropped in astonishment. His words were coded for them too comprehend, but from the little they had picked up, it was obvious to them that David had had first of all, found his way out of prison, is now haunted to be killed, and had survived a car accident just to get there.“Thank you so much,” David appreciated them, but the looks on their faces gave away how they now perceived him.“By the way, please don't be worried, I mean no harm,” He tried to clarify.“I am not a killer on the loose okay? Its because you two were newly hired, I was the managing director of this company for nearly two year.”“Wait, you are Mr David!” Paul finally recalled,“First of all, please lower your voice, and second yes, I know you think I'm supposed to be in jail right now, and you are correct, I was supposed to be. But I found my way out. Not that it matters to you two, listen, I just want Tristan to get that message, if it get
Confused, Tristan couldn't think of the best possible solution at that moment. The smoke was going to start the fire alarm, and the water would spray all over the computer. The only problem here was that the water had been cut off, giving the fire enough time to rage. But since it was still very little, Tristan had no choice but to take off his jacket and hit it over the fire to put it out. “Okay, that worked?” He exclaimed in shock.“Of course it did.” A voice replied to him, and Tristan turned around immediately, and it was none other than another minion.“How did I not see him when I got in here?” he wondered.“Who are you?” He asked the man, but at the same time, he realized that he had asked this same question numerous times and got no reply, so why keep asking them?“Nobody important,” the man replied.“I didn't expect to see you here until tomorrow.”“Well you just did, and as long as you are not the boss, don't bother wasting my time. He is the one I have to deal with…“Who
"This is it?" Tristan exclaimed,"This is the very important message that he has for me. if there's anything new from what he has said is that he was meant to assist them in the plot to kill me but refused since the offer was not appealing.""Although," Max chimed in, "He also mentioned that the Triadon stone will be returned to where it came from originally, it's on a ship currently to Singapore. A single phone call can help us to claim it.""True," Tristan replied with a sigh, but he did not see the point of claiming the stone for himself. There was barely anything he needed it for. All he wanted was to find the big boss, expose him, and set himself free from all this drama.There are exactly two hundred and twenty-six Triadon stones on earth, what makes him think that taking one stone will stop these people from getting another?"You can do that, Max, if you think it's necessary, but left to me, I won't." He uttered. "I'm only looking forward to meeting this big boss tomorrow, th
As Tristan walked into the building, he sighed heavily. There was none in sight, the sitting areas were empty, not a single sound to prove that there was a soul in the building. He looked at the system's screen, and the red dot indicated the person he spoke to yesterday was right there inside the building. From what Tristan could see, he was on the ground floor just at the reception, but he saw no one there."Where could he be?" He wondered and began walking around, hoping to see him. He was anxious, not because he feared for his life, or the battle he was about to fight, but he was anxious to meet this big boss.While he approached the hallway that led toward the cafeteria, Tristan sensed the presence of someone behind him, and before he could turn around to see who it was, the man attacked him from behind, grabbing Tristan's neck with his elbow from behind.He tried as hard as he could to strangle Tristan, but the young trillionaire did not bulge or act like someone who was being a
_Flashback_Tristan had just left the president's house after a brief meeting with him and his son Neo. They invited him for lunch after the new spread that Tristan Coleman had sent the assassin to save Neo from the hands of those who had kidnapped him and were ready to kill him...Both the president and his son expressed their gratitude, but things took an unexpected turn as soon as Tristan left the house. "I do not like this man," Neo announced without looking at his father, the president who occupied the seat next to him. Surprised, his father asked,"That's the man who saved your life. What do you hold against him?" "I hold nothing against him, I just fear what he might become in a few years, this man you see is keeping a lot of secrets from the public, he has much more power than he shows to people," Neo replied, pushing his empty plate away from him."I don't understand," His father said with a raised brow."Tristan wasn't the person who rescued me. He sent an assassin, and t
"Wow," Tristan exclaimed after hearing his wholesome tale about the event,"So because you hate me, you came after my life and all the people I loved?" he asked and Neo let out a chuckle."First it was Marie, and then the rest of your family, you were just impossible, Coleman but I am so glad that you brought yourself to me, now I can deal with you, stress-free." "Wait, what were you thinking?" Neo asked him. "That I will show up unprepared?""I'm sorry, Neo, but that assumption was from you," Tristan replied, and before Neo could utter another word, all of Tristan's men came out of their hiding places.They rushed in for the attacks, each one taking on one or two minions at a time. Tristan on the other hand, using the system's strength, knocked out both minions that held onto his arm."I can't believe you were proud of yourselves. " He chucked."System sends the recording of his tale to Detective Briggs. " Tristan instructed, while looking around in all directions, wondering where
