Chapter 60 “My son you called for me. Is there a problem?” The woman’s croaky voice asked as she came to stand in front of Avon.“Yes. I had a dream, and I don’t know if it’s just a dream or something else.” Avon replied, his sight leaving the woman’s face and examining the room where he was instead. The room was absolutely empty, the ceilings, the walls, all that made the room up was made out of woods carved into straight flat logs that set up walls and the wooden floor. Avon looked at his body, realizing he wasn’t really there in his human form and rather different, his transparent body emitted a fading blue light that made him look like a ghost. “You’re here through your subconscious. When you called me I’m suppose to come to you in that form of yours, but I’m busy with something here so I draw you to me instead, thus that form would be yours till we finish what we’re about to talk about.” The woman explained to him.“Oh,” Avon mouthed checking his body out once more before foc
Chapter 61 The black colored car drifted upon making it entrance, the vrooming sound made from the engine calling attention from those present at the front of the magnificently built building. The car parked not at the right spot but at the little space centered in front of the glassy sliding door entrance with two guards standing at the entryway with their hands already touching their side to bring out whatever weapon they have with them Incase danger is what those inside the car brought. The door opened revealing Finn and another guard of Avon dressed in their soldier’s uniform. They stepped down with Finn walking around to the other side where he opened the door of the back seat so the man t the back could also get down. Gesturing politely for the man seated inside to come down. And then he did, heightening his powerful aura as he stepped out of the car, his black shade over his eyes as gazed around the converging crowds around him with pure pride. One of his hand held to the
Chapter 62“Holy shit!” Faye exclaimed in disbelief of what she read. Lorraine ignored her totally, doing the little she can to help Kory in her misery. She dipped the small towel in the small bowl filled with water, squeezing out the liquid before placing it on Kory’s swollen face and massaging it with it. She checked through her drawer to see if there’s any ointment she can use and massage the sores on her face but it was empty. “Faye can you please go get any Robb or oil or anything to rub her face which you messed up.” Lorraine requested. “Lorraine you need to check this out.” Faye said instead, going closer to Lorraine to show her the message she read. Lorraine was skeptical, wondering what she has to show and annoyed that she’s not here with her to care for the girl she bashed up before the physician arrives. Just as she was about to show her the phone Kory’s eyes snapped open, she sprung up hijacking the phone out of Faye’s hand before she could show Lorraine the message
Chapter 63 Avon walked behind the two guards that came with him, already out of the elevator and approaching the company’s exits. Avon’s gaze widened at the crowds gathered at the entrance, most were with microphones and others with cameras and all.He probably should have gotten ready for this. The glassy door opened and their questions erupted like a bomb with numerous microphones pointed at Avon and all the camera and phones pointed at him. His two escorts got to work trying to push them away but it was as effortless as well as futile. “Are you really Avon Barksdale?”“How did you not die with your family?”“By you escaping did you by any chance know what happened to your family?”“Where were you all this years?”“Were you kidnapped but managed to escape from your captors after all this years?”“Did you know your family are no know and you’re were presumed dead with them?”“When did you return to EastHill?”“You look so different, mind sharing what changed you if it’s not pers
Chapter 64The Noble House.Avon arrived back at his villa, strangely meeting the house empty. He went to his room and it was the same, empty with no sight of who he was searching for. Coming back out to search elsewhere he saw a maid passing by. “Hey.” He called for him quickly, beckoning for him to come close when he answered.“Have you seen my wife, Lorraine? Where is she?” He asked the maid. “She went out awhile ago with her sister, the scary but friendly one.” The maid responded with his tone polite and head bent. “Okay.” Avon gave him a dismissal wave of hand, returning to his room. She must have went out with Faye. Avon sighed getting his hands to start working on the tie knotted around his neck. Just in the action a knock came through on his door, halting what he was doing as he turned to look at the door wondering who could be there.“Who is there?” Avon asked, his hand falling away from the tie he’s about removing, going close to the door. “It’s me.” The soft voice re
Chapter 65Kory went out of Avon’s room, going in search of Finn around the house. She needs him to direct her to the security house so she can get the cctv footage of today’s morning at the breakfast table messed with. Then she can lie that Faye must have tampered with it on Lorraine’s order. She will get them out of this house no matter what, especially that Faye; she’s going to make her pay like never before for what she did to her face. She definitely won’t go scot free, never in her life she would know who to mess with and who not to mess with. Tired from walking around, she stopped a maid carrying a silver tray containing a bottle of whiskey and an empty glass of cup filled with just ice. “Where is Finn?” She asked the maid.“I’m taking this to him, he’s at the lounge.” The maid replied.Kory glared at the maid for no reason at all, suddenly raising her left palm and landing a loud slap right at the back of the maid’s neck. “Should your face be looking up at me when talkin
Chapter 66They arrived at Kory’s room with Finn locking the door from behind not wanting any interruptions from anyone this time around. Finn skipped over to Kory sliding her arms around her from behind as he began the kiss from her nape then down her shoulder. Kory chuckled at his desperation, taking forceful steps to reach the bed. She turned around facing him, the distance between them thin already with little to no gap spaced between them. She switched positions by grabbing Finn’s collar and pushing him to sitting on the bed. Kory’s gaze at him lowered completely with a naughty smirk plastered on her lips as she went on her knees, her hand slowly unbuckling his belt before taking it off completely. Finn’s erected manhood that was repressed bulged out of his tight boxers. Kory’s lips and facials salivated at the length, he’s one big man down there. She won’t regret turning him to her puppet. She removed the boxer letting the dick spring free of its restraints. Her warm hands
Chapter 67Kory’s head snapped to the back turning to see who asked her a question. Her gaze met sharply with Avon, causing an erratic movement in Kory’s heartbeat. “I asked a question, what are you doing there?” Kory kept muted, keeping her face void and gaze glued to Avon, she ransacked her brain trying to comport a reasonable lie.“Kory!”“Oh yes, Finn and I have been looking for you since. He said he has something to tell you and we’ve been searching for you, I remember you told me you were coming to the security house to get the cctv footage needed in questioning Lorraine and her cousin, so I guessed you would be here. And I was right, I met you here.” Kory managed to form the lie, a silent sigh of relief falling down her lips as she finished talking. “When have you both been searching for me? Doesn’t Finn have a phone to call me on? Or didn’t he check my office or room that he chose to look around the house for me with you?” Avon who didn’t quite believe her excuse questioned
Chapter 167 Kory stared with confliction, now that he knows who she is. Was he going to rat her out or is there an agenda to why he kept quiet and gave her a subtle look of knowledge. She approached him with slow cautious steps, “Who are you?” Her head tilted slightly, her eyes squinting obliquely at him. “I’m not the Finn you know, I’m the total opposite.” He responded, bored and typically plained. “Then who are-““It doesn’t matter. What matters is joining hands to achieve our aims. Yours is retrieve the divinity surrounding Avon, while I came to claim his soul. That we should works towards and should matter.” He had cut her off, summing up the base of their plans. “You were going to frame Lorraine for the murder of your body right. I definitely can help with that, I will be the witness and use my abilities to manipulate things into supporting this plan. This would create a rift between them, a dispute you would take advantage of him and approach him to meddle with the conflict
Chapter 165 Avon returned to looking for Charlotte and Kory, hurrying with the search after assuming Charlotte succeeded in throwing Kory out of the house since the shouting died down. He felt a different aura around Finn, but could not afford looking into it as he’s busy with stopping Charlotte. He strolled down the stairs, arriving at the mansion’s frontal exit to see nothing but two of his guards standing there on random lookout. Kory and Charlotte were nowhere to be found. Avon moved closer to the guards, minding to question about Kory. “Have any of you seen Kory or Charlotte?” His voice questioned, immediately gaining their attention. Their head fell low in an instant, “No, General. We took post not too long, we have no idea where they could be.” The one of the left lipped a response. Avon sighed turning around and returning back upstairs. His gut kicked in, telling him something strange is going on. He wasn’t certain, but something just doesn’t feel right. While ascendin
Chapter 164Lorraine stood up from the position she was squatted to. Avon already went after Charlotte like he said. He could hear Kory’s voice shouting meters away and Charlotte trying to shut her up. “You’re not getting away with this, whatever it is that you just did to me. Give me back my body you piece of a useless shit!” She heard Kory’s voice yelling at Charlotte. “Fine bitch.” Charlotte said and that was the end of their shouting. Avon hastened his footsteps rushing to the direction he heard then shouting from only to see they were gone. Still looking around for them his eyes landed on Finn who creeped out from nowhere standing behind him. Avon almost jerked, “Finn.” He called a little weird out by his sudden appearance. “Where were you? How did you? It doesn’t matter, when you did you come back?” Avon took some steps backwards before inquiring. Finn smirked, a dark edgy one that has Avon squinting his gaze at him. “I came in not too long, I was looking for you.” He r
Chapter 164Faye walked in on the strange man rummaging for God knows what in her grandfather’s drawer. “Who are you and what are you looking for?” She asked, announcing her presence with her gaze sizing the man up trying to read his appearance. The man looked up from where he was, becoming aware of Faye’s presence as he brought up his hand that held a gun in it. Corking the object he pointed it straight at her head. “Hands up bitch!” He instructed, his finger tugging close to the trigger. Faye exclaimed with her expression as her lips parted in shock. Molten saliva liquid gulped down her throat as she slowly obliged to the man’s instruction. “You’re not gonna scream and you’re gonna come in further.” He beckoned with the gun, Faye had no choice than to step in further approaching him where he stood. “What is your name beautiful? Perhaps you can lead me to who I’m suppose to kill. I’m here for Charlotte Hales, and Oscar Hales.” Faye kept her ears attentive, arriving at the fron

Chapter 162Avon and Lorraine left the kitchen to go check on Kory to see if she’s packing her things and leaving like they wanted. Arriving at the hallway they met Oscar who had on a forlorn expression and seated on the floor with his back rested on the wall. Lorraine signaled for Avon to go on and check without him while she approached Oscar to ask what was going on with him. His daughter is now fine, she’s very sure of it because it was her husband who healed her and made sure of that. So she wondered in her head on what could have brought him back to expressing quite a wide shade of sadness on his face. Avon didn’t went on like Lorraine had say, instead took a spot and stood there waiting for her.Lorraine got to Oscar as she stooped to his position. “Uncle what’s wrong?” She asked in a tone laced with empathy. Her palm reaching out to soothe his shoulder with some pats. “Nothing is going to happen to Faye again, she’s really fine now. Don’t bother yourself much about her, s
Chapter 161Faye arrived at the Hales’ Villa going straight in search of her uncles. Oblivious to the situation that Royce is admitted and Vance is dead. The house was uncannily empty with counted souls moving around scantily. She went up to Royce’s room, it was empty and he wasn’t inside, the same thing when he arrived at Vance’s room. She wondered where the both went to. Faye came out of Vance’s room going straight to Lennox’s room, he also wasn’t in his room. Seeing no one to question about the solitude of the house, she retreated going back downstairs where she would come across some maids to question about where everyone is. Arriving back downstairs and walking past the lobby that leads to the kitchen, the big door opened with a familiar face coming inside. She was on a wheelchair with a man behind her, the familiar face belonging to Abigail. “Oh hey Faye, what are you doing here?” She asked the moment both gazes landed on each other. It was hazy in Faye’s head, the perple
Continuation from the last episode. “Yeah.” He concurred standing up so both could be on their way to Royce. “But what if he is not the one? What if it is somebody else?” He asked keeping his eyes on his face as both turned around to walk down the passage that leads to their uncle’s room. “Who else could it be? They’ve planned to kill him, and if anything doesn’t lead to his suspicion it was yesterday at the same party when he announced himself as the Dragon General. That speech he gave simply said he is not the one to take things lightly. My father and his uncles came for him so he decide to take them out. That’s just my theory though, we should wait and hear from Uncle Royce what actually happened in that room. I also notice something strange.” Aiden was left curious hearing the last sentence of his words. “What did you notice?” He asked with his brows furrowed. “You know I told the maids not to clean up Dad’s murder scene, it wasn’t to call the cops but it was for me to inspec
Chapter 158Aidan brought down the phone from his ear ending the call with Oscar. He had called to phone him about his father’s death when he made a new discovery. Aidan went back to the room where his brother was, he tapped on his shoulder the moment he got to him calling for his attention. His head was buried in his knees as he sobbed quietly sitting on the chair. Grandfather was laid still on the bed with his eyes concealed under his lashes. “We need to talk.” His said, stretching out a palm for him to grab. “What is it? Look I’m very much okay with myself crying like this, I don’t need your stupid concern or console-““Shut the fuck up and come with me. This is more important than the stupid tears you’re shedding.” Aidan leaned grabbing his wrist anyways and pulling him on to his feet, he dragged the both of them out of the room.He took them to the passage where a bench was available as he sat the both of them down on it.“I really don’t think dad was murdered by an assassin.
