"What?! You all can't do that to me!" Adrian yelled with red eyes as he pointed at Robin and the other shareholders. "Well, we all know that you have been taking company funds but we never thought it was this much and that it would come out in such a way. It shows how incompetent you are." A shareholder said with a snort. He especially hated the fact that Adrian had 'scammed' them. "I want him out!" He said and then raised his hands. "I want him out too!" "I want him out! We can choose another CEO." Another shareholder said and Adrian started to shake where he was. He looked around the table to see who voted against him but then a few seconds later, he smiled. "What are you going to do now? Hamilton family is the majority here and as long as my family does not vote me out. I'm still the CEO." Adrian bragged and he chastised himself for feeling scared earlier. But then he made a mental note to make sure to deal with all those who had voted against him. Alexander, Rick, and Adr
Five days later...Robin was seated in his study room, finally happy that he was done with his exams. He awaited the final result and if his deal with Mac would really happen. Maybe that would actually put an end to their friendship. "Boss!!" Rico rushed into the office with a shocked look on his face. He was in great disbelief as he showed his phone to Robin. "The news must be mistaken!" Rico yelled. His boss had never told him about acquiring Pana Tech! How could this be?"What?" Robin asked with raised brows. "Ohh..." He let out still with a raised brows.PANA TECH HAS ANNOUNCED THAT COHORT TECH IS GOING TO TAKE OVER THEIR OPERATIONS.PANA TECH IS KNOWN AS THE BIGGEST TECH COMPANY AS THEY ARE BASED IN THE MANUFACTURING OF PHONES, LAPTOPS, AND VARIOUS GADGETS.THE YOUNG MILLIONAIRE IS YET TO GIVE US HIS TAKE OR HIS CONFIRMATION! WE WILL LIKE TO KNOW HOW THE CEO OF COHORT TECH WILL HANDLE THE BIG PANA TECH!"It's not true, right?" Rico asked as Robin looked up at him. "What do yo
Seeing the way Robin was shaking, Jared smirked, happy that he had finally hit Robin where it hurt."What have you done?" Robin yelled as his body continued to shake. Isabella lay still on the floor and he couldn't tell whether she was breathing or not. In the next second, he rushed toward her but before he could go further, the men surrounded him with their rods and batons, ready to attack. Robin had to halt his steps as he couldn't just wade forward. He could come out dead! "Do you think I wouldn't get back at you after taking her away from me? And do you think calling me out in public will do anything? Do you think the police would actually hold me responsible?" Jared asked with a livid look. Even though he came out unscathed, the police had tried to arrest him. They seized all his weapons and he raided some of his hideouts. "Do you think what you are doing is right? You think you'll get away with everything you have done?" Robin asked back through gritted teeth. However, his
Jared took a step back as he couldn't stand the livid look in Robin's eyes. "You want to take my life, huh? You dare not." He replied, with a straight face. "Watch me!" Robin let out and this time he lunged toward Jared with full force. Catching hold of Jared's neck, he held onto it with a very tight grip, sending several punches toward the human trafficker's face. "You bastard! How dare you touch her! She is not for you to touch!" Robin yelled with angry eyes. His anger was rising by the minute and he wasn't going to stop anytime soon. "I'm going to kill you!" Robin continued to punch him and now his hand was bloodied. Jared had turned limp and he had no will or strength to fight back. He never knew that Robin was so strong, else, he would have thought of a backup plan in place. The other men tried to get to him but he used the baton he took to wade them off. "Robin..." Isabella suddenly called out, shakily. Her eyes were half-closed and she was scared seeing the way Robin deal
Robin drove speedily into Leon's house and he wasn't even stopped even with his speed limit. The guards and every other worker in the house could already recognize him and they wouldn't stop him. The sound of his car was so loud that Leon received a red alarm from inside his house. He rushed outside to see Robin getting out of the car with red eyes and a tear-streaked face. "What's going on? You are going to make everyone think that there is an attack." Leon said as he approached Robin's car. However, it was surprising to him when the young lad didn't even look at him or at least reply to his words. "What..." His voice trailed off when Robin opened the back car door to reveal Isabella. "Look what you have done." Robin said with heavy breaths. His chest rose and fell but still, he couldn't suppress the pain in his heart. "What is going on? Bella!" Leon yelled as he rushed toward her body but Robin stopped him. "You can't go close! You can't! This is because you couldn't keep a f
Two weeks had passed and Robin had been mourning his mother, in solitude right in Leon's house. Rico, Angie, and Mac had tried to reach out to him but he shut them out. "It's time for you to get up and do something." Leon said as he knocked on Robin's room door. Right now, the young lad even had a space in Leon's house. On the other hand, Robin was standing before the mirror dressed in a white shirt and black pants. Of course, he planned to go out that day as he had to put his plans into action. Leon had helped him to preserve his mother's body in a hidden mortuary and now, he had limited time to take his revenge so his mother could be put to rest. "System, we have to work together, really well from now on." Robin said, with a whisper. Now, in his head, he knew that the only thing he could really rely on was the Squandering System. Leon was there to help but then his help wouldn't be as swift as that of the system. [Yes, Robin Claire. I have been designed to be at your back and c
FAMOUS STUDENT TURNED BUSINESSMAN, ROBIN CLAIRE HAS NOT FAILED TO AMAZE US! THE CEO OF COHORT TECH HAS ACQUIRED ONE OF THE LARGEST TECH COMPANIES IN THE CITY! PANA TECH WILL BE MERGING WITH COHORT TECH! This came as the utmost shock to netizens and even residents of the city, country, and beyond. Most of the gadgets they use were manufactured by Pana Tech. Now, they were starting to wonder if Cohort Tech would be able to create such excellent products now that it had bought Pana Tech. At this point, Robin had decided to grant an interview. He was dressed sharply and the interview was conducted in his office, in Cohort Tech. "Mr. Robin, your sudden move to acquire the biggest Tech company came as a shock to many. Do you give as much assurance for your products as Pana Tech did?" The interviewer asked with raised brows. "Yes." Robin answered curtly. "I will not attempt to produce below quality as that would bring undesirable reactions from both sides." He added, with a small smile
“What is the meaning of this?” Alexander asked as he stood up to his feet with a frown on his face. He was amazed to hear that he was under arrest because he knew that no policeman would be brazen enough, to do that.“You heard him! What is the meaning of this?” Adrian asked as he went to stand beside his father. He was incredibly livid at this point. Rick, his nephew had just become the new CEO and now he was under arrest? What more unpleasant things could happen now?“Just as it seems, Mr. Alexander. Your company has been involved in fraud and embezzlement of tax funds for the past few years and we have found that you both have been actively involved.” One of the policeman said and in the next second, they all went forward to handcuff Alexander and Adrian.“What insolence! Do you have proof of what you are saying?” Alexander yelled as he banged the table. His eyes turned red as he turned to look at Robin who still stood in his place, just spectating. They made eye contact and Robin
“Did you find anything?” Robin asked as soon as Leon came back and the old man nodded. “He is telling the truth,” Leon said simply causing Robin to look at Arti with a probing look. However, he didn't want to probe too much as what he needed to do now was to find Angie. “I think you need to go back to the underworld. They abducted her.” Arti chipped. “I hate to say this but if we don't act fast, Angie might die.” “Shit!” Robin cussed in anger and punched the air. He didn't want to go back there at all. But then the dark band was still with him and there was no way they wouldn't look out for him. “Get ready, we are leaving!” He ordered and then turned to go to his bedroom with Leon to prepare. On the other hand, Arti smirked in victory. He was the one who planned the abduction. No matter what, he wanted his previous boss, Bruce’s legacy to go on. He would do everything to get Robin back there. Arti was itching to put more bullets into the heads of people and he couldn't do that
“Are you okay?” Robin asked as he patted down on Angie’s hair. He led her into his bedroom and Angie could only smile sheepishly. “Tell me what you want to eat. I will get it for you.” Robin uttered, as he made her lay on his bed and he covered her up. He did everything with so much care that Angie was blushing continuously. “No… you don't have to do that.” She said, holding his hand. “You just got out of the police cell, you should rest.” “No, you should be the one resting. Look at me, I'm fine.” Robin put her words down and then stood up to his feet. “Wait here. I'll get you something to eat.” He quickly turned around to leave and before Angie could say something he was gone. She was left sighing on the bed and as she stared blankly at the ceiling, her heart felt full and at the same time, it was in turmoil. She didn't know if Robin was being so caring because of the recent happenings. It was likely so but then why did he have to kiss her before everyone earlier? Does he lik
Robin was remanded in the interrogation room which had dim lighting and two police officers sat before him. “So, where were you with Mac before he died?” They asked. “We were on a work trip,” Robin replied. His reply was vague but then that was the truth. However, it only made the officers more suspicious. “You can't just say you were on a work trip. Where exactly?” They asked. “I–” Knock!Knock!!Robin was cut off with a knock on the door and in the next second, the door opened and a police officer in uniform walked in. “Sir, Angie Hamilton appeared and is demanding to speak to the detective in charge of the case.” The police officer announced. “Angie? Angie is here?” Robin shot up to his feet with a surprised look on his face. How did she get there when she was supposed to be hospitalized? That was the thought in his head and he was about to move to go to her without thinking of anything else.“Mr. Claire, you will have to stay here.” One officer, held him by his shoulder an
Mac’s parents left the mansion in tears as Robin refused to hand over the company to them. However, they looked like they were really going to carry out their threats.“How are you going to solve this? You can't give them the company.” Leon said, walking up and down while Robin sat on the couch. He was silent as he tapped his fingers on the handrest. Claire’s Logistics was the dearest company to him. It was what he founded first and even at that, he could give it out freely for the sake of Mac. But then the moment he starts to give them whatever they wanted, they would come back and ask for more, stating the fact that he killed their son. Mac died because of him but then it didn't mean Robic killed him. He was ready to atone for his sins but with how greedy the parents were, they weren't worth the stress. “Leon…” Robin spoke up as he stood up to his feet. “Let them do their worst. I am not giving them a single penny anymore.” He declared and Leon nodded gleefully. “But if they c
Two days had passed since Robin buried his mother, Mac and Bruce. Several articles had been going all over the internet speculating how Alexander was killed and who killed him. The netizens were also trying to connect his death with the deaths that happened in the underworld. Surprisingly, the police had decided to intervene in the issue. The hideouts of Kaden and his brothers were raided but they couldn't find anything leading back to Robin, he had cleared up everything. And as the bearer of the dark band, no one was willing to snitch on Robin.Also, he had made sure to move Angie to a private hospital, and as of now, though he didn't want anything to do with the underworld, the members still wanted him back and they were already proposing that he reunite every organization in there.A few seconds later, there was a knock on Robin's bedroom and he opened his eyes slowly but he could see nothing. The bedroom was dark and the windows were closed while the curtains were drawn. No amoun
"It's done..." Robin said on the phone with a sigh through his lips. Alexander was locked up in the cell and he was back in Bruce's mansion. "Really? You have Alexander?" Leon said from the other side of the phone. His heart was filled with glee at the thought that their efforts were not in vain. "Yes, Leon. I have a few plans I would need you to carry out." Robin said and Leon answered accordingly. He was ready to do whatever Robin said and a few seconds later, Robin dished out a few instructions and Leon understood. However, before the call got disconnected, Robin revealed what had transpired, "Leon, Bruce and Mac are dead. While Angie is in a critical condition. She might not make it." He dropped the bombshell shell and directly disconnected the call. He didn't want Leon to blame him or try to comfort him. In the next second, Robin threw his phone to the other side and slipped to the floor in his bedroom. This was the time when he was alone and now, he could let it all out. Tea
"No! He is not!" Kaden suddenly screamed, in annoyance. He stood up to his feet immediately and dashed toward them, standing in between Robin and the three men. "He is not the possessor! I am!" Kaden said, angrily. "I have him in my custody! Everything that is on him, belongs to me. So, technically, I am the possessor." He explained in one breath, hoping the three men would come to their senses and acknowledge him instead. "No, he has the band, he is the possessor." One of the men said, pointing at Robin. "No..." Kaden continued to yell but in the next second, they pushed him off and stood before Robin again. "We came as soon as we saw that you are the new possessor. We saw that you were in distress and we decided to come to your aid." One of the men said and Robin who was still reeling in and thinking about what was happening, shook his head slightly. He thought that he was dreaming but then it was real and he needed to put this moment to use accordingly. "Kill him," Robin orde
Immediately, Robin dashed toward Alexander going for the kill. There was nothing in his way to stop and at this moment, he decided that he was going to end this so-called feud between them. On the other hand, Rico suddenly shot up to his feet and dragged Alexander backward in his wheelchair.While Robin was about to launch his attack, there was a sudden bang, and then a gunshot followed. The bullet hit Robin's shield and bounced back, however, it halted his movements rapidly. "Stop!" Kaden's voice rang out with a brutal edge to it. Immediately, Robin's head snapped to look at him and he was right there, beside Angie, pointing a gun at her head. "If you move, I'll shoot. I'll shoot her and you will be losing someone else as well!" Kaden yelled, however, he was in great shock. He was shocked to see that the bullet he shot bounced off. Different scenarios of why that could happen crossed his mind and he even started to think that it was because of the dark band! He was so delusional an
"Fuck! Are we too late? Is she dead?" Mac asked, with a bit of panic in his tone as the audio from the video went off. On the other hand, Robin held onto his phone tightly, and it was obvious it was going to get crushed in the next second. "She better not! They will regret ever doing that!" Robin threatened and he was really going to carry out his threat if Angie was really dead. But deep down, he refused to believe that was what happened. He knew that Kaden was just trying to get him to the location quicker. "Let's go..." Robin said, and he didn't forget to snatch a few weapons from Bruce's armory. He was ready to kill anyone on his way to Angie. A few minutes later, they got into a car and drove off while Arti was looking down at the departing car with regret in his eyes. Deep down, he wished that he was able to tie Robin down, so he could take that band away. On the other hand, Robin drove speedily, following the direction of the GPS in his car. Soon, they arrived before an aban
