"This had better be important," Lutz said to Jake as he took his seat on the other chair in the fairly small balcony. Jake offered him a drink but Lutz declined."Listen to me Lutz. Remember when you said that this fight did not concern you and that you had no interest in defending the family name? Well now it concerns you. As we speak, that bastard oliver Lionheart came to attack my men. He has killed almost all of my men and I am furious. I want Revenge," he said to Lutz who just kept glaring at him."So, what do you want me to do about it? It is your problem. Deal with it. It does not concern me," he said and Jake scoffed. He could not believe his ears."You've got to be kidding me! Why have you decided to become so shortsighted? Your family is being targeted. You are the oldest among us and it is your responsibility to uphold the family name!" Jake snapped."Well, I have no interest in doing that! I will not fight a war with someone whose strength I don't know. Ever since you form
Viktor Grey walked up to Jake while Jake stood in the mini bar in the house. His attention was focused on the photographer on top of the bar, it was of a man and his family, the usual one that embodied all of them. He drank scotch from the bottle beside him and barely noticed Viktor Grey's presence."What happened with your brother?", Viktor Grey asked him and he finished the drink in the cup. Jake turned his focus to Viktor."My brother failed to come to a reasonable conclusion with me and so I had no other choice but to take drastic measures to ensure I protect the family name." Jake stated. 'will that be a problem for you?" He asked Viktor Grey who scoffed."Not even in the slightest. I was supposed to be worried about you. You just killed your last brother and from the looks of things you do not seem to be distraught by it. That begs the question. Are you even human at all?" Viktor Grey asked. Jake laughed softly."Even I don't know what I am. You see, Viktor, men like you and I a
Steven drove his car straight into Marshtown. He gazed at the trees by the roadside and wondered how things had changed quickly in the town. The town did not give the usual aura that it gave and ever since he left the town, he never even thought of coming back. Steven just kept driving. Shame and regret grabbed him while he drove towards his former house, the one that he also lost in the divorce. He had to see his daughter. He had an appointment with the Marshtown chief of police that day but he knew that he could not make it through the day without seeing his daughter first. It was late in the evening, and she would be back from from by then.Steven finally drove to the house and parked in the front. He stepped down, sighed and summoned the courage to approach the building. His chest was thumping loudly. Anxiety has never done any number on him like it was doing at that time. He walked to the door, and after doing his best to calm down, he rang the doorbell.Silence.He rang the doo
"So you mean to tell me that that lowlife cop decided to show again in my town?" Jake asked over the phone and the chief of police sighed"I gave him explicit warnings and told him not to ever return to this town but he did not listen. I don't know how he managed to work his way back. My instructions were very clear on him sir. That cop Should never set foot in Marshtown, that was what I said." The chief of police stated and Jake laughed."It seems like he is begging to die. I suppose that I should Grant his wish then. If he wants death, who am I to say that I will not kill him?" He said to the chief of police."Give him some time sir. I am sure that I can persuade him to return to St Lambert's City. He cannot gain anything from being here. He will only make things worse. He came back and started accusing the tiger gang of being responsible of some crimes. I will take care of him myself. You do not need to worry," the chief of police stated. He wanted to save Steven's life at least.
Oliver drove his car to the address on the envelope. It was an expensive restaurant, one that he had planned to visit with Mia after their honeymoon. He shoved back the painful thoughts and then stepped down from the car. Oliver gazed the entrance one more time and then stepped into the restaurant."Good evening sir, how may I be of assistance?" A waiter asked him and then oliver smiled."Good evening. I am looking for this table," he said and then showed her the number on the envelope. The girl smiled at him again."Please come with me sir," she said and then led him away. Oliver followed her closely, and as they walked through the scanty place, he could feel the eyes of some people on him. He knew who they were immediately, they were part of Jake's group."In here sir," she said to him and Oliver Stepped into the room that she was pointing towards. As soon as he entered the well decorated space, he looked around.There were beautiful lighting all over the place and the large chairs
"Come in, you will be safe here," Bill said to Avira. She gazed into the well furnished apartment before she stepped inside. The warmth of the place enveloped her and for a moment, she was feeling secure."I still don't understand why I'm hwre. I told you I was fine. You didn't need to go through all of this for me," she told him."Nonsense. You were lucky that day that you stepped out to get coffee while he explosion occurred. If Oliver's enemies wanted to know something about him, who do you think will be in the best position to tell them what's happening with him? Of course it's his secretary. I want to keep you safe so that no harm will come to you," he added. Avira could feel her heart melting. But she refused to admit it."Well in that case, I hope there is something to drink. Where are we exactly?" She asked him."This is my house. I come here sometimes to relax for a moment and then focus my thoughts." He told her."You are really loyal to Oliver. You literally forget to live
"Chief, what are you doing here?" Steven asked the chief as he slowly approached him. The chief paid close attention to the files that was in Steven's hands and then his eyes roamed to Steven's."Don't tell me you still plan on pursuing that case. I told you it was dangerous, Steven and you do not want to listen to me. That case will get you killed," the chief said and Steven dropped the files in his hand. He paid a closer look to the chief and for real he could see worry in the man's face."I don't understand. Why are you telling me all of this?" He asked the chief really desperate for answers. The chief sighed."When the tiger gang found out that you were following them, they planned to have you killed. They reached out to me and asked me to do the job otherwise they would kill my family. I tried to beg them but they were adamant. They would not take no for an answer. So, I made up my mind about you," the chief stopped, and then observed the dark face that Steven was wearing at that
"Like we said earlier, we do not allow anyone without an invitation to pass. I don't care if you are the chief of police. You are not stepping into this house," the guard repeated and that made Steven to wonder just how bad it is that the police force in Marshtown had fallen. If they could have no respect for his badge, then he just had to beat the living shit out of them"Let me pass. I will not ask you again," Steven said to the guards. One of them brought out his gun and gazed at Steven with fierce eyes."You need to leave now, mister or we will have a oribkemy," he said to Steven and just as Steven was about to make a move at them, the front door opened.. it was the judge"Let him through. He and I have some catching up to do," the judge said and the bodyguards let Steven pass. Steven followed the judge to The living room and there the judge settled himself into a chair. He even appeared to be Richer than he was some months ago."I can see that you are back from the dead, Steven.
