The news sounded like a shock to Oliver. How come things started going south just when they were supposed to go right? “What do you mean you haven’t seen them?” He asked as he ran his fingers through his hair and it was at that moment that Lucian joined him inside the room again.He stretched his hand to ask what was going on but Oliver shook his head negatively, asking him not to say anything until he was done with the call.“They both went out to see Megan’s brother and today wouldn’t be the first time they’d be doing that so—““Did they go with any guards?” Oliver quickly asked before Lord Tate finished talking and Lord Tate shook his head as though Oliver was going to see him before realizing he wouldn’t.“They hate the guards!” Lord Tate responded, “so they went alone.” He added and Oliver sighed as he sat on the bed.Lucian was waiting for him to drop the call so that he was going to tell him what was going on and so that they were also going to get to interrogate and probably
Sienna couldn’t believe that after warning Megan to be careful, she still went ahead with the plan. She was forgetting and pacing around as she stared at the two people she kidnapped with Keith.She couldn’t help it, her family needed the money and Keith promised to ask for a huge ransom so that they could share it equally and despite the amount they were planning to collect, Sienna was still scared.She turned to look at Keith who was as calm as anyone can be. Sienna can’t do this, she doesn’t have the heart and if things go well, she is going to leave the country.She can’t stay back and let Oliver find out that she’d joined forces with Keith to kidnap his wife. Closing her eyes, she shook the thought out of her head.“What are we going to do about the other one?” She asked in a whisper as she tried to pull Keith to the side.“We only wanted Megan, why did we bring the other girl with us?” She asked and Keith only laughed.Arianna was scared but Megan knew that no matter what she di
Oliver hung up the call and started with a new plan on how to get Grayson before he could use the drive with him to cause some serious damage. Their talk took the whole day and Paul and Ronin had to leave them both alone.Night soon came and Oliver went to bed after dinner but he couldn’t sleep because he couldn’t stop thinking about Megan and how she’s getting dragged into some troubles because of him.He felt like if he was never involved with her then she would’ve been living life like a normal person but from the day he gave her that contract, he ruined her life.Sighing, he made a promise to himself to make things right for her and he’s going to make sure that he doesn’t spare anybody. He brought out his phone to call his secretary who picked up almost immediately.“What the fuck were you doing when she got kidnapped?” He asked out of anger, “I laid down an order and when things happened here, Lucian called to do the same.”The other end of the phone was silent as Oliver let out
Oliver looked around and he was quickly able to detect that the place was flammable and any gunshot would make the place explode with them still inside.The place seemed like a perfect trap and they were both lured in, “do you think you’d be able to find me if I didn’t want to be found?” Grayson laughed.He told them how he made sure to call them with the right number so that they were going to be able to track the number, how he has been waiting for a moment like this.“You both are such fools and I wonder why the academy trusts you so much but I don’t blame them anyway, after-all they’re fools too.” Grayson added.Anger surged through Oliver and Lucian as they gritted their teeth. They tried to charge at Grayson but were soon hit by something that made their movement very slow.“I’ve been planning this for years, years and I’ve been failing thanks to you, Jackson,” Grayson continued talking. Oliver and Lucian could hear but they could act.Their movement had been alternated and they
Sienna couldn’t believe her ears when Lord Tate said he was going to give that money to her. She left the room with Keith and couldn’t stop thinking about all of the things she could do with the money.She got to the house to see Austin and her mother trying to prepare dinner and she slouched on the couch with a smile on her face as her thoughts ran wild.“We’re going to be really rich soon.” She said with a smile that immediately caused Delilah, her mother, to stop what she was doing at once as she made her way to her daughter.She was surprised as it’s been a while since she last saw Sienna in a good mood like that, “what are you talking about?” She asked her daughter as she cleaned her hands with the napkin.“Pour in the onions and I’ll come check it soon!” She called out to Austin who was also interested in hearing the story but was also hungry so he poured in the onions.“I’m saying, we’re going to be so rich soon that we’re going to leave this place,” Sienna responded to her mot
Oliver followed Grayson until there was no place else for him to run to anymore. They got to a place that seemed like a cliff and Grayson turned to look at Oliver.“You had better stop wasting your time trying to catch up to me when you know that it will do you no good.” Grayson threatened and Oliver took a step closer but Grayson couldn’t.He had been acting tough earlier when really he’s nothing but scared of death, he didn’t want to get his image tarnished too but he also couldn’t afford to be caught by Oliver.With a wicked smile on his face, Oliver cleaned the blood stain on his face and sprinted in Grayson's direction. He moved him away from the cliff and punched his face so hard that it looked like he was going to pass out.The anger that surged through Oliver was soul wrenching and if it weren’t for the fact that he had to deliver the culprit to the academy, he was going to kill Grayson by himself without regret.Pulling him by the collar of his shirt, Oliver had made sure tha
It was morning already and they were all waiting for Oliver. Lord Tate was going to get the money to them but Oliver had stopped and made him promise not to do anything until he was around.Taking his time, Oliver got dressed up although he was stressed out from staying up all night and thinking about how he was going to get Megan and Arianna back.Sighing, he made his way to the sitting room and Lucian was not there yet but after waiting for a while, Lucian joined. His head was aching pretty badly with dark circles around his eyes.“I stayed up all night trying to track the last location of the number that called but I keep getting at a dead end.” He explained as he slouched on the chair.Oliver’s eyes shifted to his secretary who only shrugged before telling him that it was the same thing and all they had to do right now was wait until the call came.He sat as he waited patiently for the kidnappers to call again, he knew he wouldn’t spare them for trying to hurt people that he held
The sound of the phone ringing made Oliver and Lord Tate stop talking as the secretary took the phone to Tate, Oliver signaled for the phone to be given to him but Tate refused.“I picked the call yesterday, something will seem fishy if someone else answers it today,” Lord Tate explained and Oliver nodded. He has to listen to the old lord and not let his emotions get the best of him.“Hello.” Lord Tate said as soon as he answered the call and Sienna was surprised, she wasn’t expecting them to answer the call so soon. Fear washed through her and she was about to hang up when Keith urged her on.Lucian and the secretary started working on tracking the location immediately and it was taking so long that they had to tell Lord Tate to find a way to keep the conversation going.“How do I know that they’re both safe and alive?” Lord Tate asked and Sienna laughed, “I can’t pay that huge amount of money only to find out that they are dead.” He added.Sienna nodded to Keith to bring Arianna, sh
