"When we got to his apartment he was found dead."John sighed."What did you just say," Sullivan asked in shock."General the assassin was found dead in his apartment." "What was the cause of death?"Sullivan stared into thin space."It was suicide," John replied."I gave you a task and you failed, what good is he to me dead." Sullivan gritted his teeth trying his best not to raise his voice at John.John dropped his gaze to the floor feeling ashamed of his incapability to complete his task.Sullivan scoffed biting his lips, huffing in frustration. Suddenly he was beginning to get dizzy, the only lead that they had to track down the antidote just vanished, and given Erica's condition she didn't have much time left. Sullivan clenched his fist in desperation, he searched for years and found Erica so he had no intention of losing her even if it meant he would have to turn the city upside down, he had to save his wife.John noticed the frustration of the general, if he lost his wife it w
The moment Jason jab strode into the living room he was greeted with the disdainful gaze of parents."Where have you been?"His father asked harshly."I've been in the club," Jason replied with a nonchalant expression, trying to move to his room."Is that so." His father remarked causing Jason to pause.He sensed something unusual about the tone his father used to speak to him. He began to wonder if his father already knew something about what he did."Yes, I've been in the club drowning in my failure since you decided not to help me get my revenge against the dragon general," Jason replied feigning ignorance.Jason's father scoffed, while his mother held her breath it was clear her husband was in a sour mood and she feared what he would do to her son.Jason's father held Jason's chin so he would not avert his gaze and this action made Jason somewhat frightened to the bones."Are you lying to me, boy?" His father narrowed his eyes to look at his soon."F..father I swear I was in the cl
Sullivan beamed a bright smile when he walked into Erica's room. She was dying slowly and he was yet to a cure for her illness. It's been four days since the doctor diagnosed that she was poisoned.These past days have been a living hell and the thought of not finding the antidote dreads him the most."How are you feeling." Sullivan stared Into Erica's beautiful eyes.He reached forward and brushed the side of her hair against his palm."Like I can barely recognize my own body," Erica replied."Good girl."Sullivan smiled at Erica"Just hold on a little longer. I promise to find the antidote.""What if there's no antidote." Erica's gaze dropped.Sullivan could see she was downcast for a moment, he gently helped her cheeks."Do you trust me," Sullivan asked with a serious tone."Of course I do, I trust you more than anyone."Hearing those words Sullivan smiled reaching forward and taking her in his arms sending soft strokes on her back with his fingertips causing Erica to shiver from th
"Yes general," John said quickly."Gather our elite soldier to surround the club, if Jason is with the antidote then he's going to pay for testing me" Sullivan held a frown over his face."General, I thought you wanted to wait until..""I know what I'm doing," Sullivan muttered.John sighed, he knew the general loved Erica more than he would even admit it himself but he feared such weakness may become an obstacle to their cause.When Sullivan entered the nightclub with a dreadful expression everyone began to whisper amongst themselves.Everyone was ordered to leave immediately and they all rushed out from the club.Jason at the end of the club was unbothered it was almost as if he had been expecting the General."Took you long enough to figure out it was me." Jason smirked down at the liquor in his hand "I'm quite disappointed by your lack of skills."Sullivan strode over to where Jason was sitting as his men surrounded Jason with their guns pointed at him."Hand it over the antidote

After Sullivan left Erica's apartment he nearly broke down in tears but he couldn't dare do that in front of John.When they go back to his mansion he hurries inside with his men.John quickly compiled his report so he could deliver them on time.It was obvious the separation was beginning to take a toll on the general and he wanted everything to be done quickly."The report," Sullivan said stretching his hands at John.John quickly did as he was told, standing by the side he watched the general scan through the pages."So these are the list of influential people that have been neglected by the five great families?""Yes General, every single detail is inside the file."Sullivan tilts his head when one of the profiles catches his attention."Who is she?" Sullivan asked.John perked his neck so he could have a closer look at the profile."She is Evelyn Kai, she Is the heir to the Kai corporation. When her parents died, the five great families withdrew all their share because it was c
"Marriage?" Sullivan asked to be sure if what he heard was correct."Yes, marriage. After what happened to my family I don't trust people at least marriage is an agreement to solidify this Alliance." She said to Sullivan.Evelyn's eyes locked onto Sullivan ,her gaze was very intense"Think of this marriage as a binding contract, it's going to last until we have succeeded in defeating the five great families.""We have to defeat the five great families but marriage is not necessary."Evenly was disappointed but she was quick in her composure and she flashed a smile."Hear me out. To achieve our goal we could share resources , knowledge..."Sullivan held up a hand ,his stern expression."Marriage is not an option for me because I have a wife. If you cannot understand then there's no need for this alliance.""Oh right, you have a wife. You mean the one you sent away, I thought you guys were divorced." Evelyn narrowed her eyes to Sullivan.Sullivan's face darkened as he stared at Evelyn
The sounds, filled the air as the cars were packed at the warehouse.The other party noticed they were losing the fight and they retreated.Some of Sullivan's men rushed in to save William.He was badly injured but thankfully Sullivan and his men arrived on time.The wounds were not life-threatening so after a little medical attention he was relieved from the pain.William was moved into a room in Sullivan's mansion because that was the only place he was safe.He didn't bother to disrupt his recovery process of William by bothering him about the information he had on the five great families.One day Sullivan was in his room when John informed him that William wished to speak to him.He dismissed John after he told him to see William at the study.He was about to leave when he caught a glimpse of the picture of his wife. Weeks had passed and they hadn't even spoken to each other.He would stay up at night, watching videos of all the things she did in her apartment. He had installed CC
