RISE OF THE EX-CONVICT CHAPTER 208
Nicholas' phone rang, its shrill tone cutting through the tense silence. He glanced down, a flicker of relief crossing his features as he recognized the caller ID. "Ryan," he answered, his voice tinged with a sense of urgency. "Good. I have been looking forward to hearing from you. Do you have anything for me? Are the RMI almost at the Royals?" Ryan's voice, tinged with a hint of alarm, crackled through the speaker. "Nicholas, have you left already?" "Yes, I'm on my way," Nicholas replied, his grip tightening on the phone. "Good," Ryan said, his words laced with a sense of urgency. "Nicholas, you shouldn't take the Panther route. There's a safer and faster route down the north. You should be able to cross the RMI from there. Do not take the panther route because it's way dangerous." Nicholas nodded, even though Ryan couldn't see the gesture. "Thank you for this information," he said, his mind already whirring with the change in plans. "Be careful, Ni

Wraith's eyes darted across the road, surveying the chaotic scene unfolding before him. His men continued to unload round after round of ammunition towards Nicholas and his forces, yet to his growing bewilderment, the bullets appeared to simply vanish mere inches from their targets. There was an eerie, almost ethereal quality to the way the projectiles seemed to dissolve into nothingness, leaving Nicholas and his men completely unscathed. Wraith felt a shiver of unease ripple down his spine. How was this possible? His men were seasoned, experienced fighters – there was no way they could be missing their mark so consistently. Yet the evidence was undeniable: somehow, Nicholas was deflecting the attacks with effortless ease. Wraith's gaze shifted to Nicholas, whose expression was one of cool, almost amused detachment. Nicholas's lips curled into a self-satisfied smirk, his eyes gleaming with a sense of quiet triumph. It was as if he was toying with them, effortl

Wraith shifted in his sleep as the sun's ray hit his face, causing him to cough, but not wake up. He changed the direction he was facing and the sun hit his face again, making him blink gently, and his eyes slowly opened. That was when he realized he was in an unfamiliar environment. His eyes dilated in fear as he tried to stand up from the chair he found himself sitting on and run, only to discover that his hands had been tied behind the chair. Frowning in confusion, he asked, "What is going on here?" Wraith became confused, struggling to stand up, but his legs were also tied. His heart started to pound heavily in his chest as he scanned the four walls around him. Everything was empty, with only a dim blue light illuminating the room. In one corner, at the upper part of the wall, he spotted two CCTV cameras. Wraith sat still, trying to recollect what had happened the last time and how he had ended up in this room, but he couldn't remember anything.

Nicholas placed a firm hand on Ryan's shoulder, his brow furrowed with concern. "Wraith has lost his memory," he said solemnly. Wraith frowned, shaking his head slowly. His hands were still tied behind his back, restricting his movement. "That's not true," he insisted, his voice steady despite the predicament. "I haven't lost my memory, and my name isn't Wraith. Please, do not address me that way again." Nicholas narrowed his gaze, studying Wraith intently. "Then who are you?" he asked, his tone laced with suspicion. "What is your name?" Wraith met Nicholas' stare unflinchingly. "My name is Rankford Loughty," he replied, his eyes unwavering. The revelation hung in the air, thick with tension. Nicholas and Ryan exchanged a loaded glance, their eyes dilating with a mixture of confusion and fear. This can't just be. Ryan swallowed hard, his Adam's apple bobbing nervously. "Have you ever heard that name before, Nicholas?" he asked, his voice barely a
RISE OF THE EX-CONVICT CHAPTER 212
India descended the stairs gently, her face looking gloomy as she headed down to the living room. Her usually vibrant features were now etched with a patent melancholy, a stark contrast to the radiant smile that had graced them just two days prior. Each step she took down the grand staircase seemed to weigh heavier on her soul, as if the very weight of her thoughts threatened to drag her down. Immediately, Maria saw her and sprang up from the plush sofa, hurrying to her daughter's side. India had locked herself in her room for several hours, making all the family members worried and anxious about her well-being. Maria's brow was furrowed with concern as she reached India, placing a gentle hand on her arm. "India, my dear, what's wrong?" Maria asked, her voice laced with motherly worry. "We've all been so worried about you. Why have you been ignoring us? Why did you shut us all? I am your mother, you can always share your problems with me but I don't know why you just don't." Indi

Seeing her daughter's abrupt departure, Maria rushed forward, her hand grasping India's shoulder in a firm, yet gentle grip. "India, what the fuck do you think you are doing? Why are you being so rude to Mr. Malakai? Do you even know who he is? He can buy out the Avendano empire and it won't even affech him in anyway," she scolded, her brow furrowed in dismay. "He has taken the time to come here and speak with us. The least you could do is hear him out." India's gaze hardened, her jaw set in a stubborn line. "I don't care who he is or why he's here, Mother," she shot back, her tone laced with a hint of defiance. "I'm not in the right frame of mind to entertain this right now." "India, darling, please don't be rude. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and you need to take it seriously. If you don't know, you are Lady Avendano already and you can't let your emotions control your decision making. Gone are the days you make bad decisions, this time around... You ne
RISE OF THE EX-CONVICT CHAPTER 214
Maria placed a comforting hand on India's arm, her wide smile conveying a sense of maternal warmth despite the unease evident in India's posture. Maria didn't have any idea what Malakai would want to discuss with India, but she knew definitely that it wouldn't be an easy feat. "Remember, dear, be on your best behavior for Mr Malakai - He holds the key to our success. If you impress him, he could take us anywhere we want in the business world. We can meet the top people and we wouldn't have to ever worry about going broke ever again," Maria murmured, her voice low and soothing. India nodded gently, her expression resolute. "I've got this covered, Mother," she replied, projecting a confidence that belied the turmoil swirling within. Maria glanced over her shoulder at her husband, who stood a few paces behind, his expression unreadable. With a subtle nod, the couple turned and made their exit, leaving India alone with Mr Malakai who couldn't stop smirki
RISE OF THE EX-CONVICT CHAPTER 215
Nicholas emerged from the lab, peeling off his lab coat as he made his way to the adjacent room where Ryan waited anxiously. The fluorescent lights overhead cast a clinical glow on the stark white walls, the sterile atmosphere heightening the tension in the air. Ryan's head snapped up as Nicholas entered, and he strode forward, the questions already spilling from his lips. "Finally, Nicholas... How is the examination going on? Are you guys done? What did the doctors have to say about this?" Nicholas exhaled a weary sigh, running a hand through his disheveled hair. "I don't even know, Ryan. It doesn't look good, that much I can tell you. The doctor are still there, doing their thing." Ryan ran a hand agitatedly through his hair, the motion betraying his growing unease. "I don't understand. Why do I feel so scared?" he murmured, almost to himself. "If Wraith loses his memory for real, I will not forgive myself for not killing him when I had the opportunity. He bette
