Donavan and Pascal stepped out of the motel while Corbin and claude alighted from the car. Claude forced a smile when he saw Donavan but Donavan did not smile back."Donavan, my friend. It's been a very long time since we last saw eqdh other. Do you think so too?" Claude asked Donavan who sighed. "I did not think that you would give me the exact location of your motel. I guess you must be getting old then, or desperate. I cannot quite distinguish between both at the stage." Claude added." I'm afraid I cannot say that I am happy to see you Claude, but I'm grateful for the help that you are about to offer. I know you have bad blood with Oliver's family and it is only right that you want him dead. However, I want to let you know that not all lionhearts are bastards like that prick Oliver. Some are actually worthy of our support," Donavan said and pointed to Pascal."Allow me to present Pascal. He is my sister's son, and he is a lionheart who actually has legitimate claim to the Lionhear
You sent for me, boss?" Bill said to Oliver as soon as he stepped into Oliver's office. The night before brought so many good memories to Oliver and he wanted to relive every moment of it, however, he could not fathom the thought of leaving his business dry. It was still too young to retire and he knew that for a fact."Ah, yes Bill. I want you to look into something for me. Yesterday, some man came to me with a proposal about getting a cure for cancer. I thought it was all bollocks, until I decided to check the internet and found some information about it. From what I could see on the website, it was pretty convincing. However,""You still have doubts," Bill finished his statement and Oliver nodded. "Damn right i do. A miracle cure does not appear out of the blue. It was a very convincing lie, or so I think, but in order for me to know more, i have to be willing to go the extra mile. The man who came to me introduced himself as Corbin. Look into him and see if there is any Corbin i
A grin showed on Corbin's face as he stepped out of Lionheart group. He could not believe that Oliver would take the bait that easily. He had expected more questions, and from what he had heard from people who tried to strike a deal with the Lionheart boss, a second formal meeting meant that oliver was More likely to do what he was pleading for. Corbin quickly got into his car and in that moment, his phones rang. It was his brother Claude."How did it go, Corbin?" Claude asked."He took the bait. I am certain of it. Soon we will have Oliver Lionheart's money in our hands and we will be on our way to sending him to jail." Corbin said with pride and Claude chuckled."Good, Corbin. However, I do not believe that Oliver took your bait yet. Do you remember that the last time we trusted a Lionheart, we ended up loosing all of our family's wealth? We will not make the same mistake again. For now it is best to assume that Oliver is still very much skeptical of us and he has not yet believed
"I found something boss," Bill said to oliver as Oliver Stepped into the house. It was already nighttime, and he had spent the entire day in the office again. He missed Mia but she was not home yet. Work was starting to take so much of her time. Oliver was starting to think that it was time for him to finally put the ring on her finger. She had waited enough, and he knew that there was no such thing as a perfect time when it came to matters like that."What did you find, Bill?" He asked when a maid came to take his briefcase. Oliver headed straight for the bar and Bill followed."I ran through all of our files looking for any form of place where Corbin could have been mentioned. It was a far stretch but at the end, I decided to go even farther back,""How far?" Oliver asked him."Before you were born. And I found something," Bill said and gave Oliver a photograph. Oliver checked the picture and saw a young Corbin standing side-by-side with his father and grandfather. They were in a j
Corbin drove to the location specified in the text that Oliver had sent. That night brought with it so many surprises for Corbin, but not even once did he think that Oliver would call that early. "Perhaps I must have been very convincing," he chuckled as he stepped down from the car. He locked the car and took a good look around. The location was quite serene, almost like a place where someone could be abducted. But Corbin scoffed at the thought. He assumed that Oliver was too naive at that point to stage anything.Corbin then proceeded to walk into the large square shaped building that was pinpointed. The building had only one visible door that Corbin could see. There were several windows but they were tiny and they looked like they would not contain a human being as large as he is.Corbin shook away the thoughts. There was no need for him to have those thoughts. It did not matter what woiks happen that night, trying to escape from Oliver would not be one of them. Or so he thought.
"My brother should have returned by now," Claude said as he paced around the motel room. Donavan was busy smoking a cigarette to ease off the stress and Pascal on the other hand kept his eyes glued to his phone.Pascal tried his best to look for someone to contact who could help him out in his mess but he could not find a single soul that was interested. He had no friends, no acquaintances. All he had was himself and Mia whose existence was slowly turning to a dream for him."What do you think he did to my brother? Do you think he's dead?" Claude asked Donavan who exhaled while the smoke puffed out of his mouth."It's very likely. Look, I do not know Oliver lionheart that much but from what I can gather, if he wants to make sure your brother is dead for tricking him, he will." Donavan took another smoke."So what are you saying? That he's dead? Is that what you're fucking saying?" Claude yelled at Donavan."Hey! Don't raise your voice at me. I am in a similar mess as you are. So sit d
"Now that it is decided, I think it's time for you to go, Corbin," Oliver said but Corbin tried to jump up. A shadow held him down. With tears on his eyes, Corbin looked at Claude again."You would betray me to save your own life? How could you do this?" We are brothers! We are family!" Corbin yelled. Claude did nit spare him a look."I am making the better choice. You always think that everything is about you. Do you think that I enjoy this? Making the decision to kill you? I do not! But for the sake of the work at hand...""What fucking work? That is your freaking excuse for doing the stupid things you do. To hell with you, Claude!" Corbin yelled. Oliver chuckled and then brought out a gun. He gazed at Corbin as Corbin raised his hands in submission and Oliver sighed."Fine. Corbin, I will give you a chance to fight back," Oliver said. "This gun only has a single bullet in it. No funny games now. If you want to take a shot at me, go ahead. But let me tell you that you will likely mi
Pascal groaned as he opened his eyes. He quickly shut them as the light from the Mercury bulbs Shone so bright into his eyes and caused him to squint. He gradually opened his eyes again and took that moment to look around.His hands were in handcuffs, and his legs were tied together. The room in which he was kept surprisingly have a smell of incense and roses. Pascal tried to move but his body was not obeying him. It was like he was injected with skme sort of paralytic that was beginning to wear off. He groaned and sighed again, shaking his head which gave him a feeling of pain.The door opened and Oliver walked in. He gazed at Pascal with disdain as he approached a chair and took his seat. He kept his eyes on Pascal, not taking them off him, not even for a moment."Well, look who's here. Have you finally decided to kill me?" Pascal asked Oliver as Oliver took his seat. Oliver kept his eyes on Pascal and then sighed."I always knew you never liked me. You were angry that Mia picked m
