Sullivan's heart sank and a wave of sadness washed over him as he helplessly watched Oliver's lifeless body slump onto the chair.The soldiers quickly started shooting, but Evelyn had already disappeared. They were left wondering how she managed to vanish so effortlessly. It was like she had a secret trick up her sleeve, leaving everyone amazed and confused.Sullivan's heart pounded in his chest as he rushed over to Oliver, his eyes welling up with tears. With trembling hands, he gently shook Oliver, desperately searching for any sign of life. The weight of the moment hung heavy in the air as Sullivan's mind raced with fear and uncertainty. Time seemed to stand still as he held his breath, hoping against all odds for a miracle."General, we searched everywhere but couldn't find her," John gasped, his breath coming out in soft pants. He hurried back, his heart pounding with a mix of exhaustion and disappointment."He's dead." Sullivan muttered in a trance.As John scanned Oliver's b
"Why are you back here?" Jason's father yelled at Evelyn.She had her face fixed on the ground as she knelt in front of the members of the five great families."Were you able to find it?" He asked harshly."The dragon general interrupted the interrogation before I got the Information about the location of the merchandise," Evelyn said.The members of the five great families mumbled over themselves as they exchanged worried gazes."If the dragon general is involved in this matter then we might never find the gold." Mr brown sighed."Can you even hear yourself? I can't believe that you are still afraid of the Dragon General." Mrs Martin sneered.Jason's father was deep in thought as they argued amongst themselves wondering what to do because the dragon general was already involved in this matter.Since he is the son of James Douglas it was natural for the general to hold a grudge towards the people that murdered his family."Silence!" Jason's father slammed his fist on the table.He tur
"John!" Sullivan's voice rose in alarm as he rushed to his subordinate's side."What's going on?" Erica asked, concern etched on her face.Sullivan was silent he was worried but he had to stay calm.His mind quickly flashed to John's injury during the shootout.He hastily lifted the side of his shirt and he was welcomed by John's ripped open wound."It's his wound," Sullivan replied, his hands probing John's body. "It must have gotten infected.""How did it get so bad," Erica said furiously."If he was injured he should have stayed back to receive treatment." She continued.Sullivan exhaled, he remembered he warned John to stay back but he refused because he was too stubborn.He blamed himself for allowing John to persuade him.Mr. William quickly knelt beside them."This looks bad. We need to get him to the hospital before things get really bad." Mr William said.Without giving any second thoughts Sullivan scooped up John's limp form, cradling him in his arms. "We can't take him to
Jason jab-paced about in his room waiting for Flint's phone call.He had a smile on his face.One glance at him and one could tell it was a smile of fulfilment.When his phone started ringing he happily answered the phone."So how is it?" Jason asked with a hint of excitement."Everything went according to plan," Flint replied.This reply made Jason happy."I'll always know I could count on you." Jason beamed with joy."There's a problem though, my men were not able to kill Erica because the dragon general's men were there but we were able to wreck her car," Flint said."The possibility of her making it alive is very slim." He continued."That's good. Even if she doesn't die I want her to feel unimaginable pain and she should suffer. The same goes for that dragon general." Jason frowned."It is his fault that my dad is treating me like this. When I end his tyranny, my father won't have the guts to look down on me." Jason said. "Anything you say, boss." Flint smirked, "You know I'm
Sullivan's eyes narrowed, his mind racing with worst-case scenarios.The way Mr William hesitated to speak even made him more worried."Is there something wrong with her?" Sullivan asked."General lady Erica.." William's voice broke down. "What is it, William? What's going on with Erica?" Sullivan asked again, he could feel his patience slipping away from his fingertips.Mr. William hesitated, his expression grim."We couldn't reach, lady Erica, General. She's not answering her phone, and her car was found wrecked on the side of the road...."Sullivan's grip on John's arm tightened, his heart racing with fear."Are you certain? Does the car belong to her?""Yes general, we have confirmed and indeed the car belongs to Lady Erica." Me William replied."What!" Sullivan yelled.He couldn't believe his ears at this point. He just saw Erica a few minutes ago and now she was nowhere to be found.He immediately regretted his decision to leave her behind."We have to find her," Sullivan said.
Chapter 54"Are you certain?" The voice asked over the phone."The General just stepped out so this is your chance," Flint smirked."Good." The voice said.Flint drove his car from the garage as he hummed happily.A man dressed in all black strode into the hospital.He wore a face mask that covered half of his face.When Sullivan's men saw his appearance they became guarded as they watched him with suspicions "Hey, you can't go in there!" one of Sullivan's men shouted, stepping forward to block the masked man's path.The masked man narrowed his eyes at the men In front of him and he tried to move forward but Sullivan's men pushed him back "Get out of my way," the masked man growled, his voice low and menacing."No, you're not authorized to enter this room," another guard chimed in, crossing his arms over his chest."Mr please leave or else you might not live to see the next sunrise." The guard said with a frown.The masked man snarled, his eyes flashing with anger. "Move aside, or
Evelyn stepped out of her car as she closed the door behind her.She tossed the keys to one of her guards as she walked towards the entrance.When she opened the door to her room she realized that the lights were switched off.This was weird because she liked the lights to be on and the servants were aware of this.She was already planning on yelling at the maids when he felt a cold metal pressed on the side of her head and she felt a lump in her throat.The lights went on and she was greeted by the presence of the person she despised the most."Let me go," Evelyn warned."Hello, love."Jason chuckled."You bastard." Evelyn grouted."There's no need for hostility sweetheart," Jason smirked."You have a gun to my head. I think you're the one with hostility here." Evelyn scoffed."Why are you here?" Evelyn exhaled.Jason laughed the removed the gun that he pointed to her head."We are not Barbarians so let's talk like civil people," Jason said as he slowly drew out a chair from the table
"Are you out of your mind?" Evelyn yelled. Jason smirked as he watched her frightened expression. "You could have killed me," Evelyn yelled again, her heart was panting heavily with fear. "Keep running your mouth and I won't miss it deliberately next time," Jason smirked. Evelyn glared at him with anger. She despises that he had the upper hand in this case but she had to play it smart or she could end up being dead. "Good," Jason remarked when he noticed she had stopped blabbing her mouth. "Now let's pick off from where we left off because the last time I called you hung up on me," Jason said. Evelyn clenched her fist to suppress the anger that was beginning to overwhelm her. All her life she had been shackled to people that always wanted to use her and it was beginning to get on her nerves. "What do you want Jason," Evelyn asked. "I need you to help me find the gold Oliver Stone is keeping. I believe it's either in his house or the great dragon general has already found it
