Everyone in the hall room had their eyes fixated on the television screen.As unbelievable as the bold headlines were, everyone knew they weren't imagining things.“PHILLIPS FAMILY SECURITY BUILDING DESTROYED, REVILLE'S PHILLIPS FAMILY, IS FINISHED”.Dean stood back, folding his hands and watching the scene unfold in front of him.Seeing Michael, who had been so brash and boastful only a few minutes ago, fall to his knees in shock and horror made Dean very pleased.Dean's plans had been wholly successful.He had cooked up this exact scenario the moment he knew that Michael Phillips, a member of the Phillips family, and third son of one of the people who killed his mother, was coming to visit the Hamilton's.Since he did not want the family, and especially Michael, to see him using his state of the art, high-tech Tablet, he had configured his phone much earlier to be able to sync to the tablet once a two-way authentication had been confirmed.He had explained the plan to Carlos and han
“I disown you”The words echoed constantly in Mia's ears, as she fell to her knees in complete defeat.Dean knelt bedside her, and could see the complete look of pain and defeat on her face.This caused him to hug her tightly and whisper to her “it's all right Mia, don't worry… it'll be okay”.“No it will not” interceded Harry, “I am not a massive fan of repeating myself, but I will say it again… leave this house, or I will call the police and get you thrown out”Mia sighed, she wanted to cry, but at this point, she had cried so much that tears could no longer come from her eyes.Mia just knelt on the ground, breathing heavily for a few minutes, in her heart, she wished her grandfather would turn to her and tell her that he had reversed his decision.But she knew this would never happen, she had completely destroyed her relationship with her family.Although she told herself she had never wanted this to happen, she knew that she fully expected this to happen. Dean was never going to g
“RICHARD DAWKINS?, the legendary private investigator?” asked Eric, in absolute shock“That's the one” replied Marko, confidently.“ARE YOU INSANE?!” asked his brother Jonathan, “I THOUGHT YOU SAID WE WERE BANKRUPT, WE CAN'T AFFORD HIM”“Relax Johnny, it's alright… I've got a plan”.Richard Dawkins was the undisputed, greatest detective that Reville had ever seen. He had burst into the scene of Reville's criminal investigations only five years ago.His origins are completely shrouded in mystery, because of this, no one knows where he came from or where he developed his seemingly superhuman investigative skills.He was also notoriously elusive, he loved to keep a low profile and wear a face mask when he walked around, because of this, very few, if any, even knew what he looked like. Despite his concealing of his face, it was obvious to Marko that he was young. Marko had actually met Richard Dawkins once before, when he was conducting an investigation into a fire that ripped through th
Dean escorted Mia to her room in the Golden estate, after he gave her a quick kiss goodnight, he exited the room, leaving Mia with her own thoughts.Mia fell on the bed, exhausted.She looked around the large room that surrounded her and asked herself why she felt so sad.Why did she feel so miserable after her parents and her family had cast her out of the house?, did she really love them that much?, after everything they had done to her.These questions consumed her mind as she tossed and turned on her bed.Taking a good look at the room she was in, made her even more confused about her feelings and emotions. Here she was at the Golden Estate, one of the most beautiful accommodations in the entirety of Reville, Dean was able to provide such a wonderful place for her… for them to stay at, so why was she not content with simply staying here with him.Mia sighed, and she got up from her bed to go take a bath, and while she was bathing, she continued to contemplate her current situatio
The entire time Dean rode his motor bike down the highway, he was in deep thought.His mind flashed with pulses of anger, as the thought of him being the architect of his good wife's return to her horrible family, filled him with disgust.But he would have to suck it up, at least for the time being. But he needed to make sure that he would be there on the day the family's power dynamic flipped on its head, the day that Mia would stand above them, and finally make them all regret how they had treated her throughout her life.Dean finally arrived at his destination, it was the Shadow Acre, a place that Dean and Carlos had long since established as a suitable meeting spot for their more discreet conversation.Speaking of Carlos, as Dean entered the Shadow Acre and headed to his stall, he found Carlos waiting for him there.He had arranged a meeting with Carlos the previous night, as he wanted them to both have a full and honest discussion about all the crazy events that had transpired i
Harry looked at the gun that he was holding in confusion. He pulled the trigger of the weapon a few more times, but it still refused to fire.“Don't bother, it won't shoot” said a voice coming from his front.Harry couldn't see the person who was speaking properly, as the man stood in front of a nearby light source, that cast a shadow on his face.Harry quickly reached into his pocket and pulled out a glass case, he then opened the case, retrieved his glasses from it, and put them on.With his eyesight now considerably improved, he once again pointed his shotgun at the intruder, and squinted slightly to see who said intruder actually was.Seeing that his gun was still not working, Harry thought that perhaps he had forgotten to chamber a round, so he cracked the shotgun.“Don't bother trying to shoot me Harry, I know you keep a shotgun underneath your table, so as a cautionary measure, I made sure to remove all the bullets” said Dean, as he retrieved six shotgun shells from his pocket,
Harry burst into an exaggerated laughter, as soon as Dean reveals that the documents he gave to him were those of the Imperium contract.Wiping a tear from his eye, he asked, “really Timothy?, the Imperium contract?, is that really the best that you can do?” “I take it you are not impressed with the contract?” asked Dean.“Of course I am not impressed with the contract” replied Harry.“I thought you wanted to have your house fixed?” asked Dean, “this contract will provide enough funds to assist you in doing it”“Oh Timothy, that contract is not nearly enough, not even close” responded Harry, “it would take a lot more than a couple of million dollars to reverse the damage you have done to his family” added Harry.Dean's smile refused to go away, instead, he simply asked, “but what if we can find to not only repair the damage done to your house, but also to offer you an opportunity, that you can use to raise the status of the entirety of the Hamilton family?” asked Dean.Harry stood an
“What are you talking about Harry?!” asked Dean, almost losing his temper in frustration.“I'm pretty sure you heard me Timothy” replied Harry, folding his arms.“Yes Harry, I did hear you… when you said that you'd approve of me becoming a member of the Hamilton family, if Mia and I got a contract with Imperium!” yelled Dean.As much as Harry hated the fact that Dean had the audacity to yell at him, he didn't complain.He understood that he was frustrating the young man, and that amusement was greater than any offence he would have taken towards Dean's words. “Yes Timothy, I do remember saying that if you and Mia got Hamilton construction a contract with Imperium, I would let you become a member of the family… but that's not what happened, is it Timothy?” asked Harry.“What are you talking about?, of course that's what happened” responded Dean, now getting confused.“No it isn't Timothy… Mia got the contract, not you” replied Harry with a mischievous grin.“Yes… but I helped her, she
