***** “This bitch is a nuisance that holds no value,” Greg’s right-hand man, Damien, immediately said with full disdain in his voice as soon as he understood the situation at hand and saw Sarah. He then gave Sarah a gaze that was filled to the brim with nothing but disdain. “Huh?” All the men still holding their batons and weapons were immediately confused, not understanding what their boss was implying. ‘Wasn’t she one of the reasons we are here—to get all the people that have a close relationship with the person who had offended the leader's master?’ They all thought in confusion. As for Sarah, she suddenly couldn’t help but become angry at the tone Damien had used while speaking about her, but as her fear was still massive, she dared not to say anything but only remain quiet, her heart still pounding hysterically in her chest. But just then, Damien said something that dumbfounded everybody there, herself included. “You guys are free to have her later and do whatever you want
***** At this moment, Damien and his men were already standing in front of the director’s office, with Damien in the lead. However, observing Damien’s face at this moment, he was behaving as though he had just seen a ghost. He appeared so horrified that he couldn’t react for a moment. “You… you… how… how could the master’s puppets be here?” He finally forced out after he returned to his senses, unable to believe what he was seeing. Witnessing their leader like this, the men behind Damien couldn’t help but exchange vacant gazes, and then they kept their mouths shut and only observed, not knowing what to say otherwise. “No! It’s impossible. These things must have only had the same aura as the master’s puppets!” Muttering this to himself, Damien immediately appeared convinced, as he knew how ominous the first thought would have been. Relieved, Damien suddenly took out two small blades from an unknown source. “They said guns didn’t affect you guys?” His eyes suddenly flashed coldly
*****“This…”Everybody was still astonished and couldn’t respond.They gazed at the tens of people kneeling in front of the more than times three larger numbers of individuals. “Are these still the same people who had been previously overconfident?” The three ladies, the customers, and the staff workers gazed at their front with disbelief, but then suddenly, everybody was dumbfounded and then they gradually glanced at the speaker.“Did she just speak?”Everybody who had just exited the restaurant was filled with disbelief in Sarah’s parents.As for Williams who was in front of the thirty or so men kneeling fearfully before him, he gazed at Sarah’s parents for a moment, then his gaze returned to the three ladies who were still gazing at him, their eyes still red from when they first saw that he had arrived.Williams finally returned to his senses, and his heavy and previously hysterically pounding heart finally calmed down significantly.Williams tightened his fists and expressed gr
*****“You are lying, right?”Inside a lounge, a disorganized Greg could be seen standing dumbfounded as though he had just received news stating that his lifetime of fortune and hard work had just been destroyed.Before now, he had been pacing about, waiting for some good news from Damien whom he had sent to the restaurant after escaping from Williams earlier, but now…He couldn’t react at all for some moment, making him resemble a zombie who had lost his soul, but as soon as he returned to his senses and realized that he hadn't heard wrongly, he glared ferociously at Damien and his eyes turned slightly red.With this, Greg began to ooze out killing intent which made the huge beads of sweat already covering Damien’s face become several times larger.“You are lying, right?” He growled.Damien swallowed hard with fear, then he began to do everything he could to calm his pounding heart.“Master, I wouldn’t lie about something serious like this. I immediately escaped the instance I reali
***** “What do you think about that lad?” Back in the Harrison family, inside the patriarch’s mansion, the elderly man, who still resembles someone who had just lost everything at this moment suddenly asked, looking blankly into the void. It was as though he had just spoken to the void, but a second later, a voice sounded behind him. “Master, I think the boy conceals many enigmas which were probably not known to anybody yet.” Hearing this, the elderly man’s expression and countenance did not change at all. It was as though he didn’t hear any of the things that were just said, but the voice continued. “Based on what I glimpsed from him when the gun was shot at him earlier, he probably wouldn’t have been that harmed if the master hadn’t assisted him.” “You sensed it also.” The elderly man finally reacted.His eyes regaining sight, he suddenly sighed heavily and then glanced at his back, just in time where his bodyguard nodded his head and continued. “Also, based on how Old Man Pu
***** “I have gifts for you three.” Inside the sitting room in Williams’ villa. This was the first time Williams and his three women had sat together since Williams officially made Dara his woman. “gifts?” The three ladies gazed at Williams with confusion and then exchanged glances, they then gazed back at him before finally rolling their eyes. “Are you also trying to sway us like you had influenced those people?” “So, you’ve also taken us as outsiders because we were treated as people close to you?” “Do you still take us three sisters as outsiders whom you could compensate in the name of appreciation?” The ladies appeared genuinely offended, and it showed in their entire being. Witnessing this, Williams smiled, not offended at all. In fact, he even appeared relieved by their statements. He allowed them to speak their minds before he eventually continued. “I wasn’t trying to sway you ladies, and these tokens I was talking about, I’ve planned to give them to you since days
***** “Where are we going to sleep tonight again?" Still that same night, Sarah’s mother, who was filled to the brim with irritation and helplessness could be seen complaining. Right now, the family of three could be seen sitting in front of a store, resembling a homeless trio. Sarah’s father was frowning like someone who had just lost his entire property while her mother was acting as though someone was owing her money. It was only Sarah who sat down lifelessly, acting as though she was nothing but a puppet. Her eyes were so blank that it was as though her soul had already traveled far and it was only her empty body that was sitting there. Sarah had woken up not long after most of the customers in Williams' restaurant were gone, and her parents together with her were about to be chased out mainly because the gate of the restaurant was about to be locked. At first, she wasn’t able to react, as she had expected to still be in the camp of her abductor, but thanks to the p
***** The following day, Williams was woken up by a pound on his door. “Are you okay?” All the sleepiness in his eyes was immediately wiped off when he saw a scared and nervous Dara standing outside his room with the two ladies behind her. “My... my parents… Boohoo… I... I just got a call from the police station, claiming that my parents and sister were apprehended last night for attempting to break open and steal from a store.” Williams, “_” “What?” He gazed blankly at Dara for a moment, not knowing what to say. “This…” “I… I need to go there right now.” Dara quickly said, not feeling Williams' great difficulty in reacting to her words, and then she turned around intending to jog off before recalling something. “It was Sister Laura and Penelope who told me to inform you first.” “I…” Although Williams was still dumbstruck by what he had just heard, he wasn’t going to let Dara go alone, so he forced himself to return to his senses. “Wait for me. I will follow you,” He shouted
