"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
"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
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
"General there's also something you need to know," William said to Sullivan."Go ahead," Sullivan replied."General I saw a folder that was named Lowell I tried to open it but it was encrypted. If I'm not mistaken that folder may be of some use but unfortunately, I was able to unlock it.""Lowell?" Sullivan muttered under his breath.The name sounded familiar but he couldn't exactly remember what it was."If it wasn't important they wouldn't have kept the information encrypted. I'll have my men do their findings on this information, for now, you have to get this wound treated and recuperate. ""Thank you, General."Sullivan ordered John to see the guest off and when they left he sank In his chair and his thoughts began to drift."Lowell, Lowell." Sullivan clicked a tongue tilting his head to a side trying to think harder.He suddenly recalled the first time he heard about Lowell when he was just a kid. The memories flooded his mind, bringing back what happened all those years ago.Lit
Erica stared into the room as usual, weeks had passed and she hadn't heard any words from Sullivan.She had high hopes that he would return but he never came. She knew Sullivan didn't love her but he cared about her. There was no way she was ever going to buy the whole charade he was trying to pull.She knew he cared about her that was why she knew he had good reasons for doing this but the least she wanted was an explanation.She sank onto the bed and sighed."I miss him." She mumbled to herself.A door was heard on the door and Erica turned her gaze towards the direction."Come in," Erica said, holding onto the pillow on the bed."My lady dinner is ready." The maid said to Erica when she walked into the room."I'm on my way down," Erica replied then she dismissed the maid. Erica strode over to the window and looked at the soldiers all busy with their activities.Even though she hates to admit it she was a prisoner but in a good way. She didn't know where she was but she needed to
The van came to a halt and Erica waited for the worst to happen but thankfully she heard the men foot step retreat.She held her ears to the side of the van trying to make out any sound to know if anyone was outside. These people were not friendly and if she was to be discovered her life was going to end immediately.When she realized it was safe outside, she took out the phone but there was no service to even call so she hid the phone.She opened the back of the van trying her best not to make any sound.The cold air sent chills down her spine the moment she stepped outside. Fortunately, it was still dark which means she still had the advantage. She stared at the open space and realized the van was in the garage.She slipped behind the cars trying her best to make sure she was unnoticed. She noticed it was a warehouse, her curiosity perked up when she saw some men stashing up some crates.She hid behind a wall, her gaze fixed on the activities that played before her eyes."What i
