“What?!” Nicola yelled, he was angry and boiling to the point that he felt like he could explode anytime soon.“Boss— I was— I—“ Elliot had no idea what to say as he watched the way Nicola was pacing around in his office.Nicola knew that he didn't have much time yet and the fact that Elliot had just told him that Lyon invited to his house made him realize that Lyon might have actually made his move.What is he going to do? How is he going to deflect anything that Lyon might want to throw his way?Questions ran through his mind as he thought long and hard about what to do but no matter what happened, he couldn’t think of anything.“You are such a big, big, very big fool!” Nicola sneered while Elliot only bowed his head as he kept his gaze on his feet.He knew that saying anything could get Nicola angrier than he actually is and that was the last thing Elliot wanted.“I’m sorry but why are you so stressed?” Elliot finally asked after a while of silence, he couldn’t understand Nicola’s
Elliot was shocked, he was dumbfounded and he couldn’t take his eyes off the amulet as he wondered the kind of power Lyon has.“I’m sorry, something went off right now and triggered— anyways, are you okay?” Lyon asked and Elliot blinked as Elen nodded.Elliot knew that no matter what HE did, he couldn’t contend with the power but there’s someone he trusted so much and that was Nicola.“What the hell was that?” Elen asked like she knew nothing about Lyon and his amulet.“I don’t know but I’ll have one of the guards check it out.” Lyon responded, it was all a part of the plan to get Elliot interested.“Not that, I meant what was on your neck, it emitted a lot of light.” Elen said and Lyon nodded.His eyes didn’t really leave Elliot as he fake explained to Elen that the amulet was a memento from his parents.He told them how he thought it was just a necklace and didn’t realize the power until recently that it got activated.“It’s the sole thing Nicola Gram is after and we can’t let him h
Nicola was still talking to Elliot when the sound of his phone ringing out a halt to their conversation.He took a glance at his phone and questions ran through his mind as he tried to think about who could be calling him.Sighing, he reluctantly picked the call since he thought that it could be one of his men but the voice at the other end of the phone proved him wrong.“YOU!” Nicola sneered as soon as Lyon spoke into the phone but Lyon only smirked, he’d only called to let Nicola know that he couldn’t do anything to him.“You don’t seem pleasantly surprised,” Lyon said into the phone mockingly, “I thought you’d be considering the fact that you sent some incompetent piece of shit here.” He finished. Nicola’s fist clenched as Lyon spoke and although he was angry, he knew better than to let Lyon know that he had that kind of effect on him.“You have a lot of nerves sending your men here when you know really well that they can’t do anything to me.” Lyon finished.Nicola didn’t need a s
Lyon didn’t do anything as he just stood, it was the first time that he had actually kissed a girl and it wasn’t so bad.All the girls he once liked never liked him back and even though he knew that Chelsey wasn’t after his riches, he still felt skeptical about her.“We really shouldn’t be doing this, Chelsey.” Lyon said, breaking the kiss and moving away from her.Chelsey blushed, her face was red and the last thing she wanted was to stop what she was doing with Lyon.She hated the fact that she didn’t get to meet him early, she hated the fact that she knows that there's a part of him that doesn’t want to be with a girl.“You should be his friend first and everything will fall into place.” Elen’s words rang in her head but she didn't know how long she was going to keep it up.She has been his friend for more than three months now and if he doesn’t like her one bit then why is he still letting her stay with him?“Do you hate me?” Chelsey asked and Lyon raised an eyebrow as he looked at
Lyon felt embarrassed as he had never been in this kind of situation before but Chelsey seemed to be calm and he doesn’t understand why.She pulled him into her, making him fall on her chest and Lyon’s face almost turned crimson as Chelsey positioned her mouth to his ear.“You could tell him to leave and that you’re going to join him later.” She suggested and Lyon immediately nodded.He never thought that a day like this was ever going to come because he always made sure to make himself available.This is why he doesn’t want to get himself involved with any female, he feels like they ruin things but he wasn’t mad at Chelsey.“Abraham?” He called but instead of a response all he was met with was silence and soon, Abraham answered him.“W— What do you want?” He asked, his eyes roaming around as he tried to start dressing up and he felt gross.“I was going to tell you that the tracker on Elliot is working already and there’s a conversation I need you to hear.” Abraham answered.“I can co
“Alright, I like the idea because that way we can keep Chelsey out of danger.” Elen said and Abraham nodded slowly.Lyon was still listening to the recording and it didn’t take long for it to end as he thought about what his next action would be.“Also, I think we should be more prepared than this,” Abraham’s voice broke the silence and Lyon raised an eyebrow as he urged Abraham to continue.“I know Nicola and I’m sure this isn’t the only plan he has in place, we can’t even consider this a plan because he’s smarter than this.”“That’s if he doesn’t already know that we might have tapped Elliot one way or another.” He finished.Lyon thought about it for a while and he soon started to see things from Abraham’s point of view.He knew that if he was the one in question then there was no way that trying to lure Chelsey out would be his only plan.“You’re right,” Lyon sighed as he ran his fingers through his hair, he sat in front of the computer and tried to decrypt something.Smiling to hi
“I know you want to be one step ahead of him but don’t you think you need some time to be able to do that?” Elen’s voice jolted Lyon out of his thoughts.He nodded, he knew that he needed time but at the same time he didn't want to waste his time swaying around.He needs to be a step ahead but for now, Lyon planned to take a break and he also needed to rest because of how much he would get going on tomorrow.“Don’t forget about this,” Abraham said, putting the jammer back on Lyon’s amulet because he knew Lyon could forget and leave the house without it.“Take care of the both of them,” Lyon said before walking out of the room but he remembered something and immediately went back.“I want you to take care of them but don’t kill them.” Lyon ordered, causing Elen and Abraham to raise an eyebrow.“I’m sending them back to Nicola,” Lyon explained, “he should know what to expect if he’s going to mess with me.” He finished.Elen smiled with a nod, the best part of her job that she seemed to
Nicola had made up his mind to make his move as soon as he woke up. He had planned to detonate the bomb in Lyon’s house.Before he sent the men there, he was smart enough to implant a bomb inside them after he’d made them unconscious.He knew that no matter how hard they tried, they weren’t going to find those bombs on their bodies.Smiling to himself, Nicola got out of bed and got ready to go to his lab but not after setting the bomb off.“Why the hell are they calling me?” He said to himself when his phone wouldn’t stop ringing.He wasn’t in the mood to answer any calls and he also feels like Lyon’s house would’ve burnt to a crisp by now until he got to his secret company.“WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!” He yelled at the people trying to put off the fire and it didn’t take long for him to find his personal assistant.“What’s going on here? How did this happen? Were you smoking again?!” He asked but his PA quickly shook his head.“I was trying to work when I heard a really loud blast i
