"What the hell did you just do?" Gerald barked at Rebecca as he jumped from the bed. His breath had become heavy and he just glared at her like someone looking at a ghost. Rebecca just walked past him and sat down on the bed, frowning as she did so."What the fuck did you just do?" He asked her again, taking powerful strides towards her."Something we should have done a long time ago. It's long overdue for Oliver Lionheart to get busted. We have the power and if it means that I have to force his hand to give me my money, then I will do so," she said to him and pascal nearly exploded in anger."Do you have any idea how foolish that sounds? You just threw away your only leverage. Do you even know what you have done? Oliver will not take it lightly with you. He will hunt you and he will destroy you!""What's the big deal about him anyway? You all worship him like he's a god. Well, newsflash, he is not! He is just as human as the rest of us and I have no reason to be afraid of him." She s
"Pascal?" Oliver asked in a tone that suggested slight irritation. He was not in the mood for any of Pascal's shenanigans."Mr Lionheart, would you mind stepping outside for a moment?" Pascal asked over the phone and Oliver frowned. What the heck did he want this time?"Come inside. My servants will show you to my study." Oliver told him and hung up. He sighed and looked at sypher."How would you like to receive payment?" He asked her and she giggled. "Um, I'll ask for my payment someday sir. But for now, why don't you just let them accumulate? I hope you will not forget the things I've done for you in the past." She said to him and Oliver smiled."How could I even do that? You remind me so much of my sister. She is as stubborn and resilient as you are. However, you have never told me about your family. Where are they?" Oliver asked her and sypher stuttered."Well, sir, you do not need to know for now. Don't you worry. I will take care of business here. Why don't you go over and atte
Viktor Grey gasped as he opened his eyes. The bright light from the room pierced his eyes and he squinted, shuddering as the pain swept through his body. He tried to stand up, but the terrible pain he felt in his thorax made him crash down again. Viktor Grey exhaled, as he tried this time to focus on the light. The room became more visible to him. He slowly roamed his eyes around as he looked at the large room with very expensive furniture. They were so Grand that he was certain some of them had been bought off the dark web. He braced himself again as he tried to stand up, but he felt a sharp pain that pushed him down again."Ah!" He exclaimed. The pain made him weak, and he did not like to feel weak. He wanted to be powerful at all times. And where the fuck was he? Then, for the last time, he braced himself and got up from the bed. His legs trembled as he tried to stand, and he frowned when he felt so useless.He took one step in front of the other and managed to approach the large
"What could you possibly give to me?" Viktor Grey asked Veron as he trudged towards the door. He gave Viktor a wicked smile before he opened the door. Elina stood outside, gazing around the beautiful house. When she saw that the door has been opened, she looked forward and saw Veron standing there. He smiled at her again, and her eyes slowly roamed to Viktor on the bed."Father!" She gasped as she dashed inside. Viktor Grey exhaled when she ran towards him. He could not hide the fact that he was elated by her presence. She threw her arms around him and hugged him tightly."Ow..." He groaned as she pulled away. "Oh, sorry father. How are you? Are you okay?" She asked him while looking at his pale face and cracked lips."I'm fine. I'm alright. What about you? Are you alright?" He asked her and she nodded. "Such a beautiful moment. Aren't you glad to see your precious daughter right now, Viktor? This would not have been possible if it wasn't for me." Veron told Viktor while he kept smi
"No, wait, excuse me sir! You cannot just barge in here!" The security men at the door yelled at Pascal as he led three cops into Grey's Pharmaceuticals. As from that moment, a lot of eyes were on them. What had been a sunny afternoon ended up to be more steamy. "I have a warrant. This company has been exposed for harbouring information which could be detrimental to the development of this city. It is my duty to crush those attempts. Now, step aside, or I will charge you with intercepting an investigation." Pascal said to the security men who slowly backed down. They did not want any trouble with him, especially then that he was starting to get famous in the city.Pascal trudged inside, looking arive briefly. Grey's Pharmaceuticals was large, extremely large, and there was so many beautiful things to be seen in the company. He just kept walking until he got to a lift and went in with his men. Pascal had already gotten info on which floor Viktor Grey had his office, and he went straig
"You...how did you..." Pascal started but Viktor Grey quickly cut him off."You thought that I was dead, didn't you? So, that's why you decide to come to my office to cause a rukus. Ah, cops of these days. You never Really learn until you are taught a lesson." Viktor Grey said and walked closer to Pascal. Pascal could barely contain the shock on his face. He knew it was so obvious."You thought right. I did die, but I came back to life again. Pity that I cannot say the same about those wishing to do me harm." He told Pascal, and at that time, Pascal began to get his confident back."So what? You want to murder three cops right now? Is that what this is?" Pascal asked him and Viktor Grey quickly scoffed and recoiled. "I can arrest you for such words. You know that right? Let me tell you, Viktor, I am not scared of you. Nor of any of you. I have an ongoing investigation and you are interrupting.""So, tell me what you are investigating. What could be so important that you had to ransack
"Pascal! My office, now!" Pascal's heard his boss yell at him. Pascal just stood up and walked into the office. His boss kept pacing around, like he was trying to contain his anger. Pascal wondered why he was having such a bad day. Did he offend anyone in the cosmos?"You called for me, sir?" Pascal asked in modesty. His boss paused and gazed at him for some seconds."How did you do it? Fool everyone. How did you manage to hide your dirty nature in the cops?" He asked Pascal who just froze there, unsure of what to say."I'm sorry but I do not understand. What do you mean sir?" Pascal asked. His boss just picked up a file on the table and lay it down before him. Pascal gazed at the file and went through them. There were lots of fake images of him speaking to corrupt criminals that have been convicted in the past."Sir, these aren't me. I never spoke with these people." Pascal stated."That is not the only evidence I have, Pascal. I also have cash receipts and transaction details of the
Mia quickly rushed out of the Starbucks that was just to the left of her company. She could not argue that they made the best coffee in that part of the city, and fr a day that already began with lots of paperwork to go over, she knew that she was in for a long time.She quickly returned to the office. She could not afford to stay away for so long. In The Crow, several people rushed around, each trying to cover the latest happenings in the city. They all knew that there were several stories that required their attention, and if they wanted to remain the best, they had to be ahead of the times."Ma'am, i just got a report of a murder in the fifth Street. They say the scene is gory and it requires our type of presence to properly cover the story."Rory, a promising journalist said to Mia as she walked towards her office. He had joined her about two months before, and he was good."What makes it so special? There are lots of murders everyday." She asked him while walking towards the lift.
