"She told you I was her future husband," Dominic replied with a grin.
"What do you mean, Sicilia!" snapped Nate, his face flushed with anger.
"I mean it's obvious you're no longer my husband! Poor scum like you didn't deserve to be my husband in the first place!" said Sicilia.
"You're a piece of trash yourself! You bitch!" yelled Nate as he tried to remove rope in his hand.
"Watch your mouth!" snapped the guard as he smashed Nate's left cheek with his fist.
Nate tumbled to the right side along with his chair. Blood began to flow from the corners of Nate's lips from the force of the guard's blow. But Nate ignored the pain in his cheek. His angry eyes continued to glare at Sicilia and Dominic.
"You are more despicable than I am, Sicilia. If you think I'm trash, then you shouldn't have wanted me to touch you since we got married," Nate said.
"Hahaha," Sicilia laughed at Nate's words.
Dominic also grinned at Sicilia's reaction. This made Nate stare at Sicilia as if confused as to why she was laughing after hearing his words.
"You stupid piece of garbage! You think the person you had sex with is me? Don't dream! I would never want to be touched by a rotten piece of trash like you!" said Sicilia.
"What do you mean?" asked Nate with a sharp look in his eyes.
"A poor person like you wouldn't understand that money and wealth can make anything possible. My mother and father spent a lot of money to find a woman who looked like me to replace me with a trash like you," Sicilia explained.
Nate was shocked to hear Sicilia's explanation. Meanwhile, Sicilia seemed pleased to see the shocked look on Nate Evander's face.
"My mom and dad knew that Grandpa would ask you directly whether or not you had sex with me. That's why we prepared everything carefully, because Grandpa kept insisting that Mom and Dad marry me off to you," Sicilia explained.
"Grandfather even threatened not to leave a penny of his fortune to any of his descendants if I didn't marry you. I don't understand why Grandfather wanted the offspring of a rotten scum like you so badly. I don't know what you did to him to make him like that," Sicilia continued.
"Someone as beautiful as me would want to be defiled by trash like you! That's why the woman keeping you company is someone who looks just like me, she's a woman my family hired to fool Grandpa!" said Sicilia with a grin.
"No way," Nate muttered after hearing Sicilia's explanation. He had no idea that the woman who had slept with him was another woman who looked like Sicilia.
"Now I'm free from the shackles of darkness that held me captive. Now I can live with the man I love so much," Sicilia said as she hugged Dominic and kissed him passionately on the lips. The two of them deliberately made out in front of Nate, as if to tease him.
"I see. Looks like I won't have any regrets now that I know everything," Nate said as he stared at Dominic and Sicilia, who were still kissing.
"You will definitely pay for this humiliation!" Nate shouted while stomping his toes on the floor.
Suddenly, everyone was surprised to see Nate standing up with his chair. He even lunged with the toes of his feet for support. Nate aimed the back of his chair at Sicilia.
But Dominic quickly pulled Sicilia aside and held the back of the chair with his right leg. Two guards also immediately jumped to hold the chair Nate was using to attack.
"You bastard! How dare you attack my future wife!" grumbled Dominic as he swung his punch at Nate's chest.
Nate winced in pain and ducked his head. Dominic's punch felt stronger than the guard's. Nate began to cough several times. His sputum was mixed with blood.
"You useless piece of garbage! I could have sent you to the afterlife like the woman who replaced me!" snapped an angry Sicilia as she kicked Nate in the head.
"You guys are really despicable," muttered Nate, who was already lying on the floor with his chair.
"People like you deserve to be treated like criminals! You scum!" replied Sicilia as she kicked Nate in the groin. Suddenly, Nate screamed in pain until he lost consciousness.
***
Nate slowly opened his eyes. His entire body was now in pain. Nate could vaguely make out his surroundings. He was now in the room at Damian's residence. Outside the room he could hear people sobbing.
"Now what?" muttered Nate as he moved his hands.
This time his legs and arms seemed to be free, without any restraints. However, he could still feel the wounds on his face and chest. Moments later, the door to the room opened. Four heavily armed policemen entered the room.
Nate was immediately surprised to see the police there. Shortly thereafter, Damian, Liene, Sicilia, and Tedd entered the room along with two plainclothes police officers. Sicilia and Liene could be seen wiping tears from their faces as they looked at Nate.
"He seems to have regained consciousness," the policeman said to Damian.
"I didn't think you would do such a cruel thing as my husband," Sicilia said, stammering.
"What kind of trick is this?" thought Nate as he stared at Damian.
"We took care of you as if you were our own child. But we didn't expect you to take the life of one of the maids in this house," Damian said, shaking his head.
"Nate Evander. You are under arrest and will be taken directly to the police station for further investigation. The murder evidence and witnesses are complete. We hope you won't resist," a policeman said as he pulled out handcuffs.
"Wait a minute. What the hell is going on here? I have no idea what you're talking about," Nate refused as his hands were about to be cuffed.
"Don't act like you don't know!" Liene snapped.
"I saw it myself. You used that knife to finish her off!" Tedd said.
"You're lucky the guards in this house acted quickly and kicked you out before you attacked the others," Damian said.
"We could have paralyzed you if you had resisted. Your fingerprints are on this knife, you can't dodge it now," the cop threatened as he glared at Nate.
"All this time, I pretended not to know about your affair with her. I was patient. But I didn't think you'd finish her off when she was already pregnant," Sicilia said with tears in her eyes.
"I don't know what happened. But you've gone too far!" shouted Nate as he glared at Damian.
"Don't resist!" snapped the policeman as he cuffed Nate's hands.
At that moment, Nate could only surrender as the police led him out of Damian's house. In the living room of Damian's house was the body of a woman whose face and posture were very similar to Sicilia's. The woman's body was covered in blood, which was flooding the floor. The police forensics team and other police officers were also busy there.
The sound of ambulance sirens could be heard from outside Damian's house. It was only then that Nate realized what was really going on at Damian's house. He realized that he had been set up in a very cunning way by his own in-laws.
Nate's face immediately turned red from suppressed anger. Seeing this, the nearby police immediately grabbed Nate's hand to prevent him from running away when he was taken out of the house. It turns out that it is already morning outside. Mark's family and Xavier's family were also on the porch with the heavily armed police.
Dominic, who was standing outside, immediately embraced Sicilia who came out to follow the police who were carrying Nate. Seven police cars were parked outside Damian's house, along with an ambulance.
"You murderer!" Wien shouted with satisfaction.
Suddenly Nate, already full of anger, stopped his steps. He shifted his body until he could see the faces of all of Lucius' family members. Nate's sharp gaze took turns looking at their faces one by one. The nearby police officer tried to push Nate's body closer to the car, but Nate's body did not move at all.
"I don't know what you expect from all this," Nate said.
"But I swear I'll pay you back for all the insults you've done to me! The earth and the sky will bear witness!" Nate shouted.
"Move!" snapped the policeman next to Nate as he kicked him to the ground.
But Nate's eyes did not leave the faces of the Lucius family for a second, who seemed satisfied with his current situation. Damian even grinned gleefully, as if mocking Nate for not being able to do anything else.
Continued...
Nate was moved to get into the car. But his eyes didn't blink, they kept staring at the Lucius family. Nate did not close his eyes until the police car had left the courtyard of the Lucius family's luxurious home.Along the way, Nate was asked many questions by the police about his actions in killing one of the Lucius family servants. But Nate still denies the charges against him because he did not kill anyone.Nate was interrogated for several hours before being taken to a special prison cell that was very small. His hands and feet were shackled. The room was very dark and claustrophobic because there was not enough ventilation."If it has to be like this in the end. Then I will never accept your helping hand," Nate muttered as he imagined the figure of Lucius.Soon a policeman entered the cell. Nate's eyes began to follow every movement of the police. A flashlight shone brightly in Nate's face. Suddenly, Nate's eyes narrowed slightly from the glare of the light."You're tough enough
"Nate Evander! Come out!" a guard yelled after opening Nate's prison door this morning."About time," Nate thought as he took a deep breath and closed his eyes for a moment.Nate stood undaunted at the prison door. Nate's hair, mustache, and beard had grown longer than when he first entered the prison. The handcuffs on Nate's hands and feet were removed and he was led to a car by heavily armed police.The police car soon sped down the highway on its way to the courthouse. Today was the judge's hearing to determine Nate's sentence. It was also Nate's last chance to prove his innocence in court."How long have I been in prison?" Nate asked the officer sitting next to him."A little over two months," the cop replied coldly. His hand didn't seem to leave his gun."I see," Nate muttered as he stared down the street through the windshield."Money really can buy anything, even justice," Nate said.Hearing Nate's words, the police in the car glared at Nate. However, they did not take any acti
Inside the prison, there was a tall, bulky man. His eyes were fixed on Nate, who had just entered. The white-skinned man seemed to stare at Nate from head to toe. The man then grinned happily as he continued to stare at Nate."Brown skin, a well-built body, and a lovely gaze. You're my type," the seated man said."I don't know what you're talking about. But if you are indeed my friend in this prison, then at least introduce yourself," said Nate, who was still standing."You seem to have never felt the bitterness of life to dare behave like this to me," said the man who had been sitting and staring at Nate.There were loud cheers and whistles from the other cells as the other inmates saw the man standing. His body was noticeably more muscular and larger than Nate's, but Nate remained calm, not looking away."I'm Boars. Tell me your name," the man standing in front of Nate said."I'm Nate," Nate replied briefly."What did you do wrong to be brought to this prison?" asked Boars, taking o
"What are they doing here," Nate thought to himself as he stood up."Do they think they can torture me in here?" Nate muttered as he stared out of his jail room."Get all the troops ready in the field. We'll meet them when they come!" Nate ordered."Yes, sir!" the men near Nate replied. They immediately ran out of the prison to gather all the Dark Crimson members.Nate himself immediately went out into the field to wait for all his men to arrive. It seemed that the other members of the group immediately stepped aside when they saw Nate's arrival. Soon, hundreds of people rushed towards Nate. Their faces all looked fierce, as if they were bloodthirsty."Which group are we going to take over, sir?" asked the largest of Nate's men."We will not attack any group. We're just going to wait for our guests to come and attack us," Nate replied as he sat down on a bench."You sit comfortably while you wait!" Nate ordered as he told his other men to bring food and drink.Nate's men looked at eac
"One hundred billion US dollars?" said Nate in disbelief. He looked at Peter, wanting to confirm the truth."Isn't it impossible that fifty percent of Mr. Lucius' income could be that much in eighteen years?" Nate asked. Meanwhile, Peter just smiled."I've always used Lucius' savings to do business. The turnover is very fast and the profit is also large, that's why it can reach so much in eighteen years," Peter replied."Business?" muttered Nate as he gave Peter a sharp look."He's definitely not a casual person. It would be hard for a businessman to get a million dollars. Let alone a hundred billion dollars," Nate mused."Yes. Lucius has done me a great favor, so I'm doing him a favor by investing his money in my business. That money will be yours when you get out of this rotten prison," Peter said as he put the ledger back in his hand."I have been looking for your whereabouts for the last few months. It turned out that I was too late, because you were already in this prison, which
Two months had passed since Nate had met Mr. Sean. Tonight, the center of Vienna was very busy with people driving back and forth in their private vehicles. A black luxury Toyota drove through the city streets.The car with the license plate B 137 H was followed by a black Lamborghini with the license plate B 345 T. The driver of the Toyota looked back several times in his rear view mirror. Meanwhile, the beautiful woman sitting in the back seat on the right looked busy with her cell phone."Miss Sicilia, that Lamborghini car is following us," the driver said, looking at Sicilia through the glass on the dashboard."Lamborghini?" said Sicilia as she looked back for a moment. But she couldn't see the driver because the two cars were quite far apart."Do we have to call the police?" the driver asked."No need. After all, the glass and body of this car have been modified to be bulletproof. We will contact the police if the car makes any strange movements. Try not to drive on deserted road
Nate looked up at the night sky from the balcony of his apartment. The streets of Vienna were clearly visible from the fifteenth floor. Nate was leaning against the metal railing. His right hand appeared to be holding a cup of coffee.On the table was a laptop with a screen displaying the profile of Xavier Lucius. Next to the laptop were open files. The contents of the file were corporate records belonging to the Lucius Business Group, which was run by Xavier's family. Next to the file was Nate's iPhone and a box of cigars."They divided up all of his father's companies fairly. I didn't expect these greedy people to get along after his father died. Normally, greedy people like them would fight to get the biggest inheritance," Nate muttered.Soon after, Nate's iPhone rang. It turned out to be a call from an unlisted number. But Nate didn't seem surprised because he could already guess who was calling him."Yes," Nate said as he answered the call."I got the latest financials for the De
Three days have passed since Nate met Sean. Right now Nate is in a big shopping mall in the city of Vienna. He wanted to buy something to give to his cheating ex-wife. But as he was walking around, he suddenly saw a figure he knew well."Vin Lucius?" muttered Nate as he saw a teenage boy holding a teenage girl about his age. They had just come out of a well-known clothing store.Though Vin and his girlfriend were wearing jackets to cover their school uniforms, Nate would not forget because he had often washed the junior high school uniform of Mark and Wien Lucius' youngest son. Nate just grinned and checked his watch."He should still be at school. Kids and parents seem to be the same," Nate muttered as he walked among the passersby. But soon Nate stopped walking again."Turns out he brought his bodyguards here too," Nate thought as he saw three men dressed like other patrons in three different places.Nate knew they were Vin's bodyguards because he had seen their faces. They were usu
