The police had Gavin locked away in a cell. He held the bars and looked around the place. It was the same cell he was locked in. He smiled despite himself.

"Well it seems you are here again," the man said to Gavin and let out a brief laughter. "It seems that this is true. Once a convict, always a convict."

"Well you got that right," Gavin said. "Here I am again."

The police officer who arrested Gavin went to report the situation to the Lieutenant.

"Sir, I have a situation to report to you," he said.

"You are free to do so. What is it you want to tell me?" The lieutenant stood up straight on his chair.

"It's about that man named Gavin Roman," the police officer said, grasping more of the lieutenant's attention.

"And what about him again?"

"Well we just arrested him again, and this time it is still for roughly the same crime, and we seriously do not know what to do with him. This time he was arrested for allegedly beating his wife and giving her a scar on her head."

"Well," the li

    The sound of her shoe heels against the tiled floor was electrifying. She walked in a slow and sensual pace, with so much grace and poise. Gavin who had retired to the floor got up immediately as he heard the footsteps approaching his cell. He held the bars and looked out curiously, wondering who it was. But he could not catch glimpse of whoever was coming. All he knew was that it wasn't an officer, or Meghan. And this conviction kept him in sheer suspense."Hey!" The deep voice was accompanied with a bang on the prison bar. It wasn't who Gavin was expecting, but the sudden bang almost left him startled. "Wake up. You shouldn't be sleeping at this time." It was an officer."Even if I wanted to sleep this late, it wouldn't be in this stink hole." He mouthed without looking at the officer."Well, that is a relief." The officer laughed in a jovial manner. "Now, you know better than hitting a woman.""I didn't hit her. I would never..." He stopped suddenly as it dawned on him that nobody

    Gavin was totally shocked by her statement. And for a moment, he couldn't believe his ears. He looked at Scarlett, trying to convince himself that she hadn't just said what she said. She had the most innocent smile on her face."I'm sorry, what?" He squinted lightly, which made his eyes look smaller."That is all I want, Gavin. And I promise, you will be out of here immediately. You won't have to stay here another second.""No." He replied with a chuckle, trying not to sound to serious or dismissive. "I don't think I can do that. I mean, I can't do it.""But why? It isn't an impossible task. It isn't even a hard task. You just need to come with me immediately after I tell the officer to open your cell. At my place, you will get a clean bath and thereafter, we can do it. You will be back to your house before tomorrow.""No. You aren't getting me. I'm sorry but I can't do that. I have a wife, Scarlett. I am married.""And you think I do not know that?" She smirked and bit her lower lip

    Meghan woke up to a crowd of people hazily moving around her. It was obvious to her that something had happened, as the atmosphere felt dense. She looked around. She could see her father and mother standing up, and then one look at the edge of the bed were her sister and her fiance, Harry. She was on his lap as they sat cozy on the bed. Despite their loved up position, she could tell quite easily from the expression plastered to Sophie's face that something had happened. "Well, welcome sleepy head." A familiar voice said softly beside her. "We thought you would never wake up from your slumber. Are you okay?" She looked at the person talking, and somehow, in some way, she really expected and hoped that it would be Gavin before she would answer any question. She wanted to give him a piece of her mind. With a turn of her neck, she found that it was James. She wanted to smile at him, but found no strength in her to do so. A pulsating pain erupted in her head, and she placed her palm o

    James and Harry immediately felt themselves stripped as Meghan revealed that Gavin was not the one who was responsible for her condition. At first, they thought that she might have had her memory knocked out of her."Are you sure about this?" Mr. Stallion came towards her again, with nothing but pure, unadulterated fury in his eyes. He placed his old but bold hands on his daughter's shoulders. "Are you sure you can really remember what happened? Or are you just pulling our legs here, my dear?"Please child, I hope you are not trying to cover up for what he did to you, Meghan?" Her mother flared up as well. "Do not tell us that once again you are defending that good for nothing scum bag. Do not do that with us. What he has done is enough to earn him a lifetime in jail.""But mom, I am telling you nothing but the truth." Meghan argued. “Why would I lie to protect Gavin? I mean I literally dislike and hate him right now, but I will not tell a lie that he is the one that put me in this s

    The C.S.O returned to work the following morning with a smile stretched across his face. He could see clearly as he got in the vicinity that they were strange faces and a number of changes that had occured in the relatively short time he had stayed away. He became confused, but nonetheless did not have nearly enough time to observe the area. He had to see his boss and report himself. He could already guess that the middle aged man was already throwing a trantum that his Chief Security Officer was away.He arrived at the office, knocked and went inside. He saw Brax Connelly penning down on a few documents, his signature. The man turned to look at him, still with the customary grim look on his face. But despite this, Ron could tell that there was something different about the man. A soft look in his eyes that told that indeed something had happened."Good morning, sir." Ron said, his eyes looking from left to right, noticing the tiny changes that had occured in the office."And what, t

    Ron thought about what was going on. His ploy had become harder than he thought with his boss seemingly not conforming to his expectations."Okay, then." He said. "Do you know that Gavin is presently locked up in jail for beating up his wife and attacking two other men? That should tell you that if he is able to do such a thing, he should also be able to do this."Mr. Brax looked up ahead at Ron, his face ridden with surprise. "What? Since when has he been there?" Ron noticed the sudden interest that emerged on his boss's face at the mention of Gavin being in jail. It was not just that of ordinary surprise, but also one of deep worry."Well, since yesterday the bastard has been in police custody. I intend to make him pay for all he did.""Are you really sure of this?" Mr. Brax asked once again. Every ticking second that passed had him looking more worried than he was the second before."I am really serious about this. I am sure of it. Why would I lie about it?"Mr. Brax was quiet fo

    The look on the Lieutenant's face was that of shock. He was silent for a moment as he thought about what to do. The look of shock on his face slowly dissolved into a confused one."But, Mr Brax..." He swallowed and looked down at his table. "I already told you that this case is not in my hands. Why take it out on me? You know how important those shares...""Oh! You care about the shares? You care about that and not a man who has been held here for days for no sensible reason?""Forgive me, but I do not even know who this man is. Why are you so interested in him?""That is none of your business, Lieutenant." Mr Brax spat. His furrowed brows sat gently above his eyes as he stared intensely at the man before him."But, this case..." He replied dryly and in a hesitant manner as he looked around the room. That was the only way to escape the piercing eyes of angry Brax."If you're sticking with that story, then I guess the shares aren't as important as I thought they were." He turned to lea

    As Gavin walked into the hospital, the the only thing he could think about was how his wife was doing. He walked briskly into the hospital and rushed to the ward where Meghan had been when he last saw her. As he pushed the door open and went in, the sight that greeted him was that of an already made bed. The room was completely empty, with no sight of Meghan or any of her things.He rushed out of the room immediately, almost staggering. His eyes scanned the whole place as he moved his head from side to side. He hoped that he would run in to doctor who had handled Meghan's situation, since he didn't know his office. But he didn't, so he had to go to the counter at the entrance of the hospital. There, a young, blonde lady dressed in a nurse's outfit stood."Good morning, sir. How may I help you?" She smiled widely."Umm... My wife." He started, placing his hands on the counter. "I couldn't find her in her ward. Was she moved to another ward?""Please sir, may I know your wife's name?""

    Chapter 518 : Gavin's World Tour Plans

    Gavin arrived at the restroom feeling uneasy and concerned about the call to his personal line; he kept the phone hidden because he was not allowed to have a private line because they wanted to track him with his phone and monitor his conversation, but these were just standard security measures that had been in place for decades of World supreme bosses prior to him.Gavin understood the system and did not want to defile it, but he also needed his own privacy as a person, and after learning about the plots between the head of the supreme boss council and his cohort, he had to be more vigilant and cautious with everyone he interacted with.Gavin entered one of the restroom doors and sat on the toilet cover, looking around to make sure no one was watching him as he removed the phone from his outfit and responded to it. Gavin was also very clever in that he used his handkerchief to cover the phone and bent his head down so that even if he was caught, he could easily explain that he had a

    The delegates were once again in a tight spot as they were about to take their final and most unexpected test of all; the marking team instructed them to stand in front of their boxes while the moderator explained what was going to happen.The moderator stated, "In each of these boxes, there is a paper that says welcome to the team in 10 cheats, while the other 5 chests contain incentive rather than welcome to the team. Although we are aware of how some of you received the boxes, it was entirely up to your luck whether you chose the correct or incorrect box." As the moderator spoke, they all began to shake and were very concerned about what was in their box.All the delegates began to mutter among themselves because they could not believe that the chest they fought and died for might be worth nothing in the end "So, after everything that happened yesterday, I would not still join the team," one of the delegates thought to himself as he looked at his chest again and reassessed it with

    Megan was still very unconscious from her wound that had started bleeding out, she was taken back to her room. Gavin's guard was keeping an eye on her, and he was concerned that something bad had happened to her as a result of the amount of blood she had lost.The medical team arrived and redressed her wounds, telling the guard not to let her carry anything until her body healed. The doctor became enraged and yelled, "Who told her she could get herself dressed up? She is just too stubborn and never listens, I told her she was free to go, not free to do more work."The doctor was furious with her as he was redressing her open wounds; he told the guard that he was fortunate to have discovered her at the time he did; otherwise, she would have died because the wound that opened was directed at her vein, which carried blood, and further delays would have caused her to bleed out even more.The guard was relieved that he managed to save Meghan. If not, Gavin would have killed him as well bec

Before releasing the letter, the person with the letter would need to wait for a signal from the other team that retrieved Harry to confirm that Harry was okay.Although the chairman expressed regret for the letter, he saw it as a necessary tool and hoped that, once the exchange was over, they would be able to permanently get the fixer.At Vengeance, Harry is now awake and unsure of his exact location. He saw himself in a glass box with his new uniform, and a small food tray was placed on the table for him to eat, but he was unable to do so because his first concern was the location and purpose of his visit.He started searching for Sophia and hoped she was okay when he heard a voice say, "You a

He gave her his card to enter and exit his secret entrance, and he instructed her to put the card in his guard's pocket as punishment.Gavin left his apartment when he noticed that the spy had left his building and was low in the compound.
