Mac had his face down with his hands half-raised up as he walked toward the car. All the while, his whole body shook as he was deathly scared of the gun Alexander’s assistant possessed.“What do you want with me, huh?” He asked as he got to the door of the car while staring at the old man in the car.“Get in and you will find out.” The assistant replied while Alexander was giving him a cold stare.In the next second, Mac got into the car with a fearful look in his eyes and in a minute, the car zoomed off, leaving Mac scared for his life. Will he come back alive or will the old man do something brutal to him just like what was done with Robin.After several minutes of intense fear, the car was parked in a secluded area while the old man looked at Mac with a curious look.“Why did you have to subject yourself to a life of slavery under Robin?” He began to say and Mac’s head snapped to look at him.“What do you mean? I’m not in any way living a life of slavery with Robin!” Mac replied,
“Robin!” Angie screamed in shock and excitement as she stood up and rushed toward Robin who lay stiffly on the sandy floor.Her eyes turned red and drops of tears spilled from her eyes. At this moment, she felt the happiest as they had almost lost all hope.“Boss…” Rico called out with a happy look as well but he could only lay on the floor. His leg was broken and he had a deep gash on his arm.Since the accident, he had been in tremendous pain and he could only wait on his imaginary death. However, his heart had been so heavy due to Robin.“Are you okay?” Angie asked as knelt beside Robin, looking at him intently. She was trying to check if he was alright, knowing the ordeal Robin had gone through to save them.“Yes, I’m fine…” Robin replied with a groan. His eyes closed for a moment as he held onto his stomach, trying to sit upright. His body ached tremendously and he sighed, tiredly.At the time of the accident, all he wanted to do was protect Angie as well as Rico.The system had
“I’m setting up a rescue team for them, privately. The police and the dispatched rescue team have stopped searching for them.” Leon said as he looked down at Isabella who lay on the couch, crying. For days, she had been like that and he was doing everything he could to get her to smile. Deep down, he didn’t care if she didn’t have the same feelings as him, he would do all he could to make her happy again. “Really?” Isabella replied as a sad smile came upon her face. “Will I get to see my boy again?” She asked as more tears streamed down her face. “We will get him back…” Leon replied. “Dead or alive?” She asked, still with a sad smile on her face. Words got stuck in Leon’s throat as he continued to look at her. They both knew that Robin was dead but then he couldn’t continue to tell her that. She had to come to terms with it herself. He took a step back from her as he waited for a call from the rescue team. He had high hopes that Robin’s body would be found and maybe Isabella wou
Robin’s question and expression caused Alexander to seethe in anger. Robin’s stance and the devious smirk on his face caused the old man to point at him with a shaky finger.“So, you are alive, huh?” The old man asked with a disappointed look on his face.“Did you expect me dead?” Robin asked back with raised brows. At the same time, Leon came to stand beside him showing his stance and support for Robin.“Are you supposed to be alive after what you both have done?” Alexander asked with a wronged look on his face.“I see that you have finally started showing your true colors.” Robin said and then stepped forward to look straight at the old man. All this while, the old man had been trying to appeal to Robin but seeing that Robin wouldn’t succumb or be controlled, he had to show just how much he despised the young lad’s character.“Where is Isabella? After what you did to Brianna, you want to take my other daughter away from me?” The old man asked, feigning a pained look.“What do you me
“Where you stand? You are my granddaughter and you will always work for me.” Alexander replied like he was forced to. He couldn’t deny that he had taken her in like his own granddaughter but deep down in his heart, he knew who his grandchildren really were.“What if I decide to stop working for you? What if I decide that I want to devote to working for Robin and not you anymore? Will you still consider me as your so-called granddaughter?” She asked as a tear dripped from her right eye.No matter how her papa Alex had claimed to love her, she had never questioned him or look him in the eye to know if he was telling the truth or not.But now, she could see the cold and unfeeling look in his eyes and it maybe had started to dawn on her that she could just be a pawn on his game board.“You can’t stop working for me, Angie. I took you in just for that.” Alexander replied with his voice raised a notch higher. He was clearly disturbed by what she had said.“Just for that? I was just a pawn t
CHAPTER 91: ACCUSATIONSTwo days had passed and Robin had been away from the public trying to plan his next move. Jared’s move had thrown his life pace off-guard and now he needed to strategize. At the same time, the public had not gotten news about his health, they all still thought that he was dead.“Are you sure about this?” Angie asked as she stood beside Robin who was ready to address the reporters that had gathered right outside his home. He had sent them an anonymous message that he was alive and if they needed exclusive scoop, they could come to the dark mansion.“What do you think?” He asked back as he put on his jacket. At the same time, Rico who was seated in a wheelchair had a worried look on his face.“We think that it is quite dangerous for you to show up to the public. Jared is still out there and he will do anything to bring you down. Added to that, Alexander is on a rampage and judging from my past experiences with him, he will not let you off the hook.” Angie said w
As soon as Mac shouted in the midst of the reporters, everyone turned to look at him, wondering who he was and why he would ask Robin to take him back.“Who is he?” A reporter asked as he focused the camera on Mac. At the same time, Mac rushed to stand before Robin. The bodyguards prevented him from going forward and with so many speculations surrounding his appearance, Robin was caught off guard.“Robin! Please, take me back!” Mac said out loud and in the next second, he went down on his knees. His eyes had turned red and it seemed he was about to start crying.On the other hand, Robin looked around and he was slowly growing angry but he had to keep his cool otherwise, it would be bad for his image if he reacted badly.“What? He is begging Robin to take him back? Are they lovers? Did they have a breakup?” One of the reporters said and eyes were on Robin, as they started to think he was gay.“What are you doing, Mac?” Robin asked through gritted teeth as he looked down at Mac who was
“Can you speak up now? They are gone already.” Robin said as he folded his arms, looking at Mac with a serious expression.“He asked about The Red Club and the reason why we were there?” Mac replied. He didn’t have anything else to say apart from that.“Did you tell him how you wasted time and squandered money at the club?” Robin asked with a mocking tone as he walked back to his desk. Even with the Squandering System, he still did not squander money unnecessarily unless it was urgent or his deadline to spend.“That’s not true, Robin. All I thought was that you wanted to have fun at the club and I did what was right, to me.” Mac defended himself as he was a bit upset that Robin would continue to accuse him of what happened.“What else do you have to say? Is that all the old man asked you?” Robin asked with raised brows. He didn’t want to prolong the matter about the club because he could see that Mac had not learned his lesson.Mac should have known what kind of person Robin was and h
