RISE OF THE GREAT SULLIVAN chapter 99
"What happened exactly." Erica exhaled in exhaustion. She was beginning to lose her patience with all of Evelyn's boring talk. "I know the General was wondering why I betrayed him." Evelyn started. "I didn't have a choice. After my parents passed away I made a deal with the five great families.""They would support me with everything I need in exchange for working for them." She said, trying to keep her composure. "That was why I agreed to be a spy and accepted your offer," Evelyn said turning her gaze to the general. "Then it all got worse when I decided to trust the wrong person when I should have just trusted you from the beginning." Evelyn burst into tears. Sullivan closed his eyes, he could feel the remorse coming from her. He felt bad for whatever situation she was in. "Who did you trust?" Sullivan asked with curiosity."I trusted Jason jab." Evelyn sobbed with sad laughter."What a fool I must have been to love someone like him.""What a fool you are indeed," Sullivan r

Sullivan's expression remained unyielding, his eyes fixed on Evelyn's tearful face. His mind was racing with different options.Initially, he wanted revenge but now after hearing her side of the story, he didn't think he had the heart to hurt her.She had been through so much and it would be unwise of him to end her life.He flickered his lashes at her and he could sense desperation, her sincerity, but he struggled to reconcile the Evelyn standing before him with the one who had betrayed him so deeply."Evelyn, even if I wanted to help you, how could I trust you?" Sullivan asked his voice firm but measured. "You've lied and manipulated me once." I fell for your truck and it put countless lives at risk. What makes you think I'd ever trust you again?"Evelyn took a step forward, her hands clasped together in a pleading gesture. "What I did was unforgivable and I'm not here to ask for forgiveness nor am I here for you to trust me." "Oh," Sullivan smirked leaning forward on the table

"Thank you, Sullivan," Evelyn said, her voice filled with gratitude. "Thank you for giving me a chance to nake things right.""This really means so much....""Don't think this is an invitation back into my life, Evelyn." He snapped to clear whatever delusions that were already cooking up in her head.You're still a traitor, and you'll be watched very closely. I'm only using you because it's convenient for me, nothing more." Sullivan's expression remained stern, his eyes narrowed. Evelyn's face fell but that was expected, but she nodded understandingly.It was her fault for being stupid and betraying Sullivan.If not for her recklessness her brother might still be alive. "I understand, Sullivan. I don't expect anything more.""I'm lucky enough to be alive and still be able to work for you. So thank you ,whether you want it or not.""It's good to know that you know it's because of luck that you're still alive." He frowned.Erica nudged her arm and then she shook her head.She was alre

Sullivan comes out from the bathroom with a towel over his head and another firmly crossed on his waist. He glanced at his wife who was in her night with a book over her face. Sullivan noticed that his wife, Mood had not been bright after their meeting with Evelyn.He didn't like the silence, but he knew that asking questions would only lead to more discord between the two of them. And this was something he didn't want to do. He also knew that not asking what was wrong with her would also lead to another trouble. So at this moment, he was stuck between the devil and the deep blue sea.He continued to clean the droplets of water on his hair as he kept stealing glances at his wife. Erica, on the other hand, was unfazed by this movement and kept her nose stuck in her book. Her legs were firmly crossed against each other. Sullivan could see the smoothness of her skin beneath her robe. But he didn't dare make a move because he knew his wife was angry at him.He swallowed hard to himse

"I wasn't angry. You're just the one who concluded.""Me?" Sullivan's eyes shot out."I didn't conclude anything." He yelled."You were the one acting strange when I came inside the room."Don't you even dare try to put this on me. You were the one who ignored me first."" When did I ever ignored you?" Sullivan frowned."Oh, I guess you are so slow to remember since earlier today, you left me all alone to navigate through this complex place."Sullivan furrowed his because he had no idea what she was talking about.He scanned his memory several times but he couldn't quite place what she was rambling about. He was tired and exhausted and just needed to sleep, but his wife seemed adamant in keeping him awake all throughout the night."Since you don't remember, it's fine. There's no need to keep on dragging the issue. Go ahead and sleep," she said, trying to force a smile. Inwardly, she was literally screaming like a little girl because his facial expression was to die for. She wasn't

Evelyn wakes up to the sound of rumbling items in her room. She moans softly as she flickers her eyes open. She was surprised to see the maids in her room. She jumped up from the bed. Her back was leaning against the bed frame as she tried to make sense of her surroundings. Suddenly, she felt someone's presence hovering over her. She raised her gaze and saw John looking at her with a numb expression on his face. "Rise and shine," He said."What's going on? She asked hurriedly." Am I in trouble? She asked. John ignores her, then keeps a straight face as he keeps his gaze fixed on the maids that were trying to tidy up the room."John," she half yelled." I asked a question." John turns, finally turns to look at her and he exhales in frustration." I heard you the first time, and I chose to remain silent," he said." If you're bent on ignoring me, what's... You know what? It's fine. It's fine." Evelyn scoffs, then beats the side of her lip." I'm just going to sit here and act a

"Clothes," Evelyn muttered under her breath. Her face became clouded with confusion."Yes, clothes," John said nonchalantly. "We are not savages after all. Lady Erica provided them for you to look somewhat presentable." He gestured towards the folded clothes on the bed. Evelyn followed his gaze and saw the clothes by her side. "Thank you." She said her voice barely above a whisper. "Save your thanks to Lady Erica. " He said rolling his eyes. "I was fine with you wearing your rags." He said. She bit the side of her lips as she remembered her former status. The highborn of the Kai's corporation was spoken to in such a manner by some lapdogs. She shook her head as she clicked her tongue. How far had the mighty truly fallen, she thought with bitterness in her heart. "Whatever thing is cooking up in your head kindly ensure that you erase it before I do so myself." He said throwing the clothes to her face. Evelyn closed her eyes when she felt the harsh impact of the clothes on h

"That's an order," John said, firmly. Evelyn smiled and did a courtesy. As "His Royal Highness commands, I will get dressed, she said, her tone was heightened with a hint of sarcasm. She took the clothes from the bed and then glanced at him. She was expecting him to give her some space, but when she noticed, he wasn't. She furrowed her brows at him."I have to get changed, you have to leave." She said snapping him from his thoughts.What? John said in a low tone.He gazed at Evelyn and she stared at him with a dead eye crossing her arms against her chest."Oh, don't tell me you plan on standing here till I... As I change my clothes." She shook her head and then a sigh escaped her lips."God, I never knew you were such a perv. She said." "I am not a perv," John replied.Then it finally dawned on him that he needed to excuse her so that she could get dressed. His cheeks were slightly flustered" Oh really? You're not a perv?" She chuckled."But if you were not, why on earth did you

The doctor rushed in, concern etched on his face. "What's happening?" he asked, immediately assessing Erica's condition."She's bleeding," Sullivan replied, his voice tight with worry.The doctor quickly examined Erica, his face grave. "We need to run some tests," he said, calling for a nurse to assist.Erica's heart raced as she lay on the hospital bed, her mind racing with worst-case scenarios. She had thought she was past the age of motherhood, and now... now she might lose the baby.The doctor returned with a warm smile. "Erica, you're pregnant. And not just with one baby, but twins."Erica's eyes widened in shock, followed by a wave of joy. She was going to be a mother!But her happiness was short-lived as she remembered Evelyn's condition. Her best friend, who had just lost the love of her life, was also pregnant and alone.The doctor's expression turned serious. "Erica, you need to take it easy.

Sullivan's steps were heavy as he trudged back home, his once resolute demeanor now burdened by the weight of the night’s events. The adrenaline that had fueled him through the mission had long since faded, replaced by a hollow emptiness that gnawed at his chest. His uniform, stained with the blood of battle, felt suffocating as he reached the front door of his home. The moment the door creaked open, Evelyn appeared, her face lighting up with relief at the sight of her father. Behind her, Erica emerged, her eyes scanning Sullivan's expression with concern. But as Evelyn took in her father's sullen face, her heart skipped a beat. She looked past him, her brow furrowing in confusion."Where’s John?" Evelyn asked, her voice tinged with worry. Sullivan's eyes met hers, and for a moment, he couldn’t find the words. His silence was all the answer Evelyn needed. "We met some resistance and John used his life to save mine. " Sullivan broke into tears. All things came with a price but t

Jason's cold smile lingered as he took a step back, his eyes scanning the room, daring anyone to defy him. Mrs. Martin glared at him, her jaw clenched in anger, but she remained silent. The tension in the room was palpable, every breath heavy with unspoken threats and unresolved conflicts. Jason had them all where he wanted—on edge, fearful, and uncertain.Before anyone could muster a response, Jason turned on his heel and strode out of the chamber, his men following closely behind. As the heavy doors slammed shut behind him, the room erupted once more into chaotic whispers and accusations. But their words meant nothing to Jason now. The seeds of discord had been planted, and it was only a matter of time before they bore fruit.*****John approached Sullivan’s study with deliberate steps, his heart racing with the urgency of the situation. He knew that the council's infighting had reached its peak and that Sullivan, the Dragon General, would be ready to act. Knocking briefly, Joh

The room had barely settled into a sense of uneasy calm when the doors to the council's meeting chamber burst open. "Jason has gone wrong and we need to put him down." Mrs.Martin yelled. "You of all people should know that he's not a force to be reckoned with. " Jason's father yelled. "You are no longer the head of this council so don't give oders." Mrs. Martin snapped. "But as a member i have a right to speak." He shot quickly. His face was clenched in anger because he still couldn't believe she did this to him. Ever since he stepped down from his position, his family has not been peaceful plus the death of his grandfather made his wife on a rampage. "Speak when you are needed."She shunned then she turned her gaze to the council. "We need to deal with Jason before he destroys the city and everything in it. " She said firmly. "What do you suggest we do then. "Mr almer asked."What can we possibly do? "Mr smith rolled his eyes."He's a child. "Mrs.martin groaned. "A child th

Sullivan managed a weak smile, though it did little to mask the turmoil within him. "I feel like it too," he admitted, running a hand through his disheveled hair."Did you even get any sleep."Sullivan turned his eyes lazily at john. "What do you think?""Right." John remarked as he gave a nod. John moved to the counter, pouring himself a cup of coffee before taking a seat across from Sullivan. The silence between them was heavy, laden with unspoken worries and unaddressed fears.After a long sip of his coffee, John finally spoke. "I take it things didn’t go well with Erica?"Sullivan sighed deeply, his shoulders slumping. "No, they didn’t. She’s so hurt, John. I don’t know how to fix this."John nodded thoughtfully, his gaze steady and he sighed before he slouch on the couch. "You’ve always been good at fixing things, Sullivan. But some wounds… some wounds need time, not quick fixes."Sullivan stared into his cup, the steam rising in gentle swirls. "I know that. But I can’t s

Sullivan’s footsteps echoed hollowly through the grand halls of their home, the weight of the night's events pressing heavily on his shoulders. He had escorted Erica and Evelyn back from the warehouse, but the tension between him and Erica was palpable, a chasm that seemed to widen with each passing second. As soon as they arrived, Erica had avoided his gaze, her body rigid with anger and pain. Sullivan had tried to reach out to her, but she had brushed past him, her eyes cold and distant. Now, he stood outside their bedroom, his heart pounding in his chest.Taking a deep breath, Sullivan pushed the door open and stepped inside. Erica was by the window, her back to him as she stared out into the night. The silence between them was suffocating.“Erica…” Sullivan began, his voice low and tentative.She didn’t turn around. “I don’t want to hear it, Sullivan,” she said, her voice cold and firm.“Please,” he implored, stepping closer. “Just let me explain. I was trying to protect you. I

Sullivan’s heart pounded as Jason’s voice echoed through the dark, cavernous warehouse. He clenched his fists, every muscle in his body tensed, ready for whatever was to come.“Jason,” Sullivan called out, his voice steady but laced with fury. “Where are they?”A low chuckle reverberated through the space, causing Sullivan’s skin to crawl. He spun around, trying to pinpoint the source of the sound, but the shadows played tricks on his senses. Suddenly, a flicker of light appeared on the far wall, and a hologram of Jason materialized, his cold eyes locking onto Sullivan.“Relax, General,” Jason said with a twisted smile. “They’re alive… for now.”Sullivan took a step forward, his jaw clenched. “I’m not here to play games, Jason. Where are they?”The hologram of Jason tilted his head, amusement flickering in his eyes. “Always so impatient. You know, Sullivan, you should be thanking me. I’ve given you a gift—freedom.”Sullivan narrowed his eyes, his pulse racing. “What are you talking

Sullivan’s heart skipped a beat as John's words sank in. He stood frozen for a moment, his mind racing to process the information. The unease that had been gnawing at him now turned into full-blown dread."Have you checked everywhere?" Sullivan demanded, his voice sharp with urgency."Have you searched every corner of the house? The garden.""Yes, General," John replied, still catching his breath. "We've searched the entire estate, questioned the staff—no one has seen them since this afternoon. Although I interrogated the maids and they overhead the lady Erica talking about going to a boutique."Sullivan clenched his fists, his mind reeling. Erica and Evelyn wouldn't just disappear. Not without something being wrong. His thoughts quickly turned to Jason. Could this be his move? Was this the beginning of his revenge?"It's going to be her regular. Have you called in to see if they used their cards to pay for any item..""General, they never made their way to the boutique."“Damn it

Jason sat in his dimly lit office, the heavy silence of the room punctuated only by the ticking of an old clock on the wall. The air was thick with the scent of leather and smoke, mingling with the faint aroma of whiskey from the glass in his hand. He stared down at the liquid, swirling it slowly as he reflected on the event that had brought him here—at the top of the underground empire, feared by those who once looked down on him.With his newfound power and authority, Jason knew he was unstoppable and now it was time to take back everything that was taken from him. He had spent years clawing his way out of the shadows, enduring brutal training, torture, and pain.What made him happiest was that the scar was no more. He always promised to end his life and so he did. He chuckled when he recalled the look of hurt and helplessness on his face. Every step had been a struggle, but now, with power and authority firmly in his grasp, he knew he was unstoppable. It was time to repay th
