Chapter 123From his folded hands at the back that held a briefcase all this while brought to view the black flat and flexible case. He placed it on Avon’s palm, who directly brought it over his thighs. He clicked it open, bringing out the pictures and giving it to Finn who seemed to understand his unspoken instruction. He went ahead distributing the picture to everyone of them. “That, you’re looking at is what is left of your legacy’s bricks and dusts.” He said to them, in announcement mixed with sarcasm, in case they fail to get what the picture portray. Damon who was still on the ground wailing uncontrollably collected the picture, his palm moved to his face wiping away some liquid off his muddled face before checking the picture out. Seeing the content, the storey buildings that held the companies, all the five branches of Parker’s Industries all collapsed and grind into pieces. How did he manage to do this, yesterday the building was still intact, how then did he pull this
Chapter 124His eyes moved across the room till they landed on Grayson Parker. His gaze narrowed at him, stepping back and away from the dead limbless body of Damon, he went back to where he was seated. After resuming his seated position, he glanced up at Grayson and gaped with cold eyes. “Get up!” He voiced out the command. Grayson from where he sat had no idea where the force that took over his bodily movements came from. He found himself heeding his obligation and standing to his feet.“Come closer.”His feet went into action, moving like his words beckoned, he fought to gain back control but nothing came. He moved through the blood on the floor, across the room and past his brother on the ground, he got to his front standing there like a tottering statue.“Please-““Silent.” The voice shut Grayson’s mouth from pleading like he sorted to do. His lips shivered pressing tightly together contrary to his will. He tried to understand how it is happening to him, how was he doing all
Chapter 125Fear, antsy, were the visceral reaction dominant in for them. They stared with avid vision as the two siblings born by Grayson and his wife, unable to stop them from moving further heeding to the words of the beast sitting across the room facing them with eyes void of an expression.Sarah was still on the floor, now begging for the lives of her children to be spared. Grayson was till there, peeling off his skin with a knife that was matted in his own blood, the clean silver plate stained with his blood. He could only sniff and whimper probably tired from crying that yields nothing of his safety.The stench odor of blood, fervor to the nose wafted from the room covered in blood and the dead body of Damon. The two arrived finally in front of Avon. Eyes red from too much tears they’ve secreted. Looking hepped up from their thought on what Avon called them to do, it hinted on their death so their mind widened on his conception, wondering on how he is about to command their d
Chapter 126Lorraine and her mother switched their outfits into something more casual before jumping in one of the available vehicles and demanding for a drive with the driver to the City’s General Hospital. Some minutes later, the car was pulling over at a spot in the parking lots available at the vicinity. Lorraine opened the door dashing out of the car, she dashed right into the hospital straight to the receptionist. “Faye Hales. She was admitted here, please what is her room number?” She asked the courteously dressed lady, hastiness in her voice, her hands tapping repeatedly on the counter separating her from the nurse. “Let me check.” She responded, her attention diverting straight into the book she has with her. At that moment, Charlotte arrived, standing right beside Lorraine who was waiting to hear the ward number her best person was admitted into. “Ward 128, on the second floor ma’am.” Just as she had informed, Lorraine ran straight to the elevator and not taking the sta
Chapter 127The air felt choking, and so does the aura lingering the atmosphere that surrounded them. Donna breath hitched with fear, her heartbeat galloping to a pace she couldn’t control. “W-wh-what do you mean by that?” She asked, trying to sound firm and a bit less tensed.Avon exhaled out deeply, adjusting his sitting position on the couch. He looked up at her, studying her tensed expression. She held tightly to her husband’s hand, gripping firmly on it. As if letting go would means an affirmation of his death. “Your husband right here helped Grayson in a plan that had my family getting wiped out. Let me explain better-“ “Please. I’m sorry, it was a mistake, I regretted doing it even till now.” Arvin sank to his knees as he began to plead, his hand slipping away from Donna’s hard grip. His head hung low, with tears glistening at the corner of his eyes. “Oh so you remember what you did? Bravo!” Avon said, sounding astonished and almost giving him a loud clap, already clampin
Chapter 128At The Noble Mansion. Kory was alone, she has no idea where everyone is. She was in her room resting and feeling unnecessarily uneasy. She sat up her bed, her feet moving to touch the ground and slipping once into her slippers. She had quite the conversation with Charlotte the other midnight. They had talk over many things that made her went to sleep late, she waited to see if Finn would show up or come back home but nothing. They had a fight she insinuated back at the party and she needs to sort that out with him. She knew Finn was falling for her and that is what she wanted. Not only would he make her plan easier to carry out, but he would be of great help in getting rid of her obstacles. She’s just waking up close to the afternoon, her head banging from sleeping late and from emptying many bottles of champagne. She looked around the bed, stretching her arm to search around, her hand soon slapped on her phone, obtaining the instrument she began operating it.She yaw
Chapter 129Royce and Vance arrived at Oscar’s room. “We’re doomed Royce. We’re so fucking doomed. This is all your fault, you forced us into doing this. This would have been over after that poison idea, now we’ve messed up real time. Oh gosh!” Vance cried out, pacing back and forth the room with a terrified look on his face. “Calm down, Vance. We don’t know if he is alive truly. Just calm down, and what assurance do you have that he is going to come after us. He has a lot of enemies, I mean his announcement speech yesterday made that clear. There are a lots of other people trying to kill him. Don’t work yourself up too much. He’s not going to come after us.” Royce stood on a spot, trying to stay calm as he spoke some words of relief to Vance and to himself. He should hope Avon doesn’t come for them or find out that they were the one who tried to kill him. He really thought he is dead. But he actually died, it was all over the internet. And he spent his night jubilating for a succ
Chapter 130Royce feared for his action to be caught, quickly tucking back the gun inside his pocket. Blood fountained the ground spilling from the hole invented on Vance’s head soaking the floor. Royce stared around the room, trying to think of something to do. Sweats foamed his face, covering his head as the liquid trickled down his face. He gasped trying to calm heaving breaths. His sight narrowing round the room caught the opened window, giving him the idea he needed to escape the situation he impulsively placed himself in. He went to the dead body, changing the position. The head on the floor that pointed a direction to the room was now pointing at the door and his legs at the room.He closed his eyes, releasing long breaths to calm himself and recite in his head what he is going to say and do. And at once he get into action. “Help! Help! Help!” He screamed, he remove the gun he has with him shooting around the room once more and quickly returning it back to his pocket. Th
