Michael Scofield Has Returned! Chapter 37: The Secret Flavor!!!
Lord Eric stared at both and unleashed a short smile as though he somewhat eavesdropped on their conversation.[Could he have?]“My boy, during the winemaking processes, what have you observed?” Lord Eric chimed with another intriguing question.Without explanation, Michael already knew his questions were on a route to a premeditated direction, and whatever the answer could be would be related to why he opted for a discussion.“Well, I have taken cognizant of some winemaking routines but one that's most striking is the finishing touch…” he got into words and paused for a while to find the perfect words to use.Lord Eric gestured his left arm out for him to continue already.Michael switched his gaze towards Sheraton as hints of what he had seen in the winery company replayed in his head once again.“I have observed that during the final wine mixing process, the last elements and unique flavors are solely done by Sheraton in her private office, which no other staff has access to.”“I b

***5:56 AM*** 5:57***5:58***5:59** and finally, at 6:00 AM on the dot, a resounding ringing tone was perceived.The call buzzed Sharon out of slumber with a persistent vibration in her ears.She reactively woke up with her eyes narrowed while bulging at the echoing phone call singing across her apartment.“An unsaved number? Calling this early?” she mumbled with a deep sigh before attempting to pick up the call.“Hello…” her voice crept out expecting a swift response from the goddamn caller disrupting her sleep.She barely slept all through the night with deep thoughts of her mum's deteriorating health knowing she'd be pronounced dead in a few days.In split seconds, the caller's voice broke out with much hastiness and urgency:“C’mon Miss, where are you? Your mother will soon be moved to the Operating Theatre at exactly 6:25 AM. You should be here to at least say some encouraging words to her before the surgeons take over.”Sharon flickered her eyes in absolute confusion while she a
Michael Scofield Has Returned! Chapter 39: Sharon's Epistle!!!
A series of palpitations was induced in the air as Sharon's ears were slammed with an eerie thudding sound after those shocking words oozed out from her lips.Michael stood in silence with his eyeballs glued at her without knowing the best words to employ.He was astute in judging people's emotions and character, but for some reason, he saw more of her good traits.“I know you're mad at your discovery and wouldn't hesitate in reporting me to the higher administrative positions.”“Yes, I know that's what you'd do, my fate is already doomed,” her muffled voice etched with intense regret.He remained speechless while garnering the perfect means of addressing the unforeseen development.“My instincts tell me you didn't want this. What happened? The odd Samaritan needs to know the full story and the subjects involved in the evil plot.”His words were charmed with in-depth wisdom, his tone wrapped in great intuition while he surprisingly maintained a mild composure.She flinched in extreme
Michael Scofield Has Returned! Chapter 40: The Abduction!!!
Michael rolled his eyes in building thoughts; her last words trapped him in more depth on the mystery behind the mole scheme against Eric Cottage Winery Enterprise.[It seemed like there was more to what they presumed]“During a couple of our meetings with the topmost players. I notice an unknown personnel covered in a silhouette while feeding them with information about our company.”“The strange person’s identity was deliberately hidden from us and I am certain that mysterious personnel had had a past relationship with Eric Cottage Winery Enterprise.”Sharon's words were enmeshed in certainty; she didn't obviously have a reason to tell lies, given the fact she had exposed herself as a mole.After a few seconds of further pondering; Michael's lips finally let loose:“You’ve been blackmailed into working for the bad guys. Although you're guilty of falling prey out of desperation, I'd give you a second chance to make amends.”“I’d advise you to think carefully before responding.”Her s

***“Lucas! Fetch Great Lord a glass of water!”“Be fast!” Sheraton yelled with terrified bulging eyes.Lucas, one of the senior household staff, without further ado, sprinted towards the kitchen to do the needful, his heart racing with urgency.“Great Lord, please… breathe… try and breathe out,” she voiced out in gripping fear.Ten minutes ago, Sheraton stormed into the mansion to explain better about Michael's abduction as the Great Lord couldn't make sense of what she was spilling in the phone call.“My God! Please hold on Sir… Lucas has brought the water.”In great palpitations of the unprecedented negative news, Lord Eric's breath has been distorted for almost two minutes, his airflow and blood flow disrupted due to the shock of the kidnap.He managed to sip in half of the glass of water, followed by an exasperated sigh of sadness.“Oh, my boy. Do you think they had already killed him?” he mouthed from the deepest part of his heart, his veins quickly running cold.His question us
Michael Scofield Has Returned! Chapter 42: Seven Heads Against One!!!
The heavy gunshot birthed moments of gripping silence as seven bewildered faces irresistibly glanced at one another with mouths somewhat widening.It's been over thirty seconds, and no words, not even a scratch of the thick grasses, were perceived.Suddenly an uproar of intense laughter broke out like a troubling storm.“Hahaha!!!” All gang members barked out in severe chuckles and giggles with their hands held onto their stomachs.Michael, who had been holding firmly to the gripping laughter, couldn't help but widen his mouth and have it all gutted out.“OMG! You guys are excellent actors. At some point, I thought I was dealing with seasoned entertainers!”“I could bet that most eyewitnesses thought I was actually being kidnapped after the precise uppercut!” He gave in to more chuckling.“Haha! Richard? Was that gunshot necessary? You still haven't changed, still the same good actor right from college days!” Michael happily teased while the two embraced each other after long years of
Michael Scofield Has Returned! Chapter 43: A Mouthpiece From The Past!!!
“It’s been twenty minutes since his abduction, and we have no clue what the assassins want! Not even a single call from them!”“We don't even know if Michael Scofield is still breathing!” Lord Eric bawled out, which induced more tension in the atmosphere; his emotions switched from fear to enrage.The seven household staff members in the living room lowered their gazes downward; they knew better not to stare upon the Great Lord when furious.“Enough is enough! I'm calling in the Chief Police officer to handle the kidnap case! I can't watch my boy die without a fight!”Sheraton widened her mouth to speak, then, within a split of seconds, swallowed hard with thick words clung to her tongue.A voice calmly mouthed from the atmosphere. “The Great Lord, please let's wait till at least thirty minutes of his kidnap. Once you make that phone call, Michael Scofield’s undercover would be blown, and the media would know he's linked with you.”Lucas held tight his gripping goosebumps and managed
Michael Scofield Has Returned! Chapter 44: A Decision By One--- A Punishment For Three!!!
“Michelle!!!”“Catherine!!!”Marshall's voice reverberated as he sprinted with heavy hot sweat contorted on his face.“We’re over at the balcony. Come over there!”Augustine's family received a hasty phone call from him demanding an urgent conversation.Different thoughts clouded their hearts and it was only moments for answers to be known.“Why the urgency? Has your father changed his mind on our concealed engagement?” Michelle inquired in sharp breath with eyelid profusely blinking.“Hey, next time add ‘Madam’ while addressing me,” Catherine spatted with a somewhat furrowed expression, her right finger positioned on her waist.He stormed before them with no ounce of giggle registered on his face“If my dad has changed his mind? You had better wake up from your delusional fantasies.”“I would no longer add ‘Madam.’ You lost that respect the moment you chose to sleep with Barr. Frederick.”“...Well, we have a bigger problem!”“Again!!?” Catherine and Michelle shrieked in deep worry, t

Michael softly smirked and tutted his lips. “A puppet CEO who supposedly embezzled millions?”He had heard the opinions of some media industries about him, and as expected, it didn't come out nicely.He didn't expect the media houses who were quick to run such headlines to have integrity and would easily be swayed to promote content that would incite controversies.The more they broadcast such notions, the more their chances of earning from public opinion expand.He remembered vividly during his trial for embezzling funds from Eric Cottage Winery Enterprise accounts. The same media expertise took it a life duty to broadcast the fabricated evidence.“Seemed so,” Claire chipped in. “It’s ridiculous that some media industries are pushing the narrative rapidly. Gosh!”Michael wasn't surprised about the rapid spread of those indicting news. Marshall wouldn't embark on such a war without having some media enterprises in his control.Hence, those designated media industries might have been i
Chapter 203: A Breach In The Walls
While Michael battled public unrest on the latest development--- a more harmful attack was looming within the company.That evening, Christine, the head of cybersecurity in Kingstown Golden Telecommunications, stepped into his office, her face wrapped with concern while she breathed urgently.Behind her was Malik, the financial advisor who had worked in the company for over six years, his demeanor etched with unease.“We have a problem, Sir,” she began first, placing a file on his desk. “Hmm… A big one.”Michael calmly flipped it open. Inside were detailed financial records; his own financial records, except they were manipulated with false transactions.The numbers painted an untrustworthy picture, making it appear as if he had been funneling company funds into personal offshore accounts.When he had just got out of the fabricated transactions in Eric Cottage Winery Enterprise. His foes swiftly attacked through his father's company.“They’ve been tampered with,” She continued, her vo

Each stare from Scarlett reeked of utmost confidence. He didn't have any doubt about her trust in him.Regardless of what the headlines would say about him— Scarlett, who hadn't known him for more than four months, seemed to be a staunch believer in his belief system.Little wonder, she visited the interrogation cell during his temporary detention.“The storm will definitely arise but it won't swallow you up. They're fighting you badly because you're better in every way.”“Brace yourself! You have done a lot for humanity, you have been a good example for the present and younger generations. Your integrity and value system have set a precedent for us to adhere to.”“You're our hero! The multi-talented Herbal Fortress! The business genius! There's nothing they'd pull off that we can't withstand!”Scarlett's words were concise and filled with life.She knew exactly what to say and didn't stutter in the process.Her eyes never left Michael's while spilling those thick, famous words that w
Chapter 201: The Storm Breaks
Two weeks after Marshall’s threatening text message, the looming threat that had been foreseen was finally showcased.It began subtly with whispers in the media about internal conflicts at Kingstown Golden Telecommunications.The bitter truth was Michael hadn't gotten a full grasp of the flow of activities in Kingstown Golden Telecommunications.He was still unlearning and relearning how the company functioned with the aid of his father, Scarlett, but it was a different ball game with Eric Cottage Winery Enterprise because he had always been a fan of great wine.Also while working as the inventory officer at Charleston Park Shopping--- still married to Michelle. He used to request Eric Cottage Wines for sales.It was more like a walk in the park for him. Also, the undercover job he did to expose the bad eggs in the winery company helped him to understand its structure. With the assistance of Stephanie, Sheraton, Oprah Gracy, Sharon, and Cole, the sky was just a starting point.However
Chapter 200: The Looming Strike
Michelle drew a slow breath, glancing nervously around. “He's planning something big. I overheard him talking to some of his allied, powerful, wealthy figures before he was arrested. He's looking for leverage; a way to bring you down.”Michael’s forehead knitted in thoughts. “Why are you telling me this?”Her voice remained steady “Because I have hurt you enough," she admitted quietly. “I made mistakes, but I don't want to see you destroyed. Despite everything, I… still care in some way.”For a moment, there was silence. Michael studied her emotions, facial expression, demeanor, and attitude— searching for deception, but found none.“Thank you for the warning,” he cautiously replied. “I hope you find the path you’re looking for.”Michelle chimed in a shaky smile and turned heading out until his voice halted her tracks.“Who are these unknown allied figures? I know they have been sponsoring this battle. What do they have to gain? Who are they?”Michael's words oozed with curiosity— in

In the days following the dramatic shareholder meeting, Eric Cottage Winery Enterprise began the long process of recovery.The revelation of Gerald Sanchez's conspiracy left a mix of relief and mixed feelings on the foundation of European Winery Industries.If some stakeholders were considering removing Michael as the president. How long before another conspiracy would emerge?Michael, still the vehement COO, knew that while Gerald and his cohorts had been arrested, the journey to rebuild the company’s reputation had just begun.Oprah and Sheraton gathered the staff in the conference hall for an official address from Michael.There was a surge of anticipation; a mixture of excitement and curiosity.
