The moment the gun was pointed at Jason was the same moment Gustavo and all his men pointed their guns at Christine. Jason lifted his hands in surrender with an obvious dread in his eyes. "Turn around you idiot," Christine ordered Jason. He did so very slowly, not having any intention to provoke her further. His eyes widened in surprise when he saw that she was the one. "You thought that I was gone, right?" She asked him as she chuckled wryly. "I always knew there was something off about you the moment I set my eyes on you. You gave me more reason to suspect you when you requested food and clothes for the children. I intentionally made sure that you were gone before I headed back for the ship, hoping you would eventually come back. Right now, I cannot believe that I was right after all." "I think you should drop your weapon. These men would not hesitate to bore holes in you if they notice any movement from you," Jason said, his voice still shaking with trepidation. She laughed hyster
Jason headed for the location that Klaus had sent him, but not without sharing the same location with Gustavo, so he would be some kind of support in case anything went wrong. As he approached the place, he was beginning to notice that Klaus had officially sent him the invitation to his house, which was a mansion in the middle of a heavily secured thicket that had controlled animals loitering. He finally got to the mansion and was directed to Klaus' chambers. He knocked on the door and it opened up for him immediately. Just as he expected, Klaus was fuming with rage when he got into the chambers. He was surprised to also see Caleb and Fred there. The other members of the six had their faces on a screen, and it took Jason some seconds to realize that they were in a virtual meeting concerning what had gone wrong. "What went wrong with the order that you processed?" Klaus growled at Jason immediately, fuming with rage. Jason was unhinged as he already expected it. "I wish I knew what yo
"And who the hell is Arthur?" Jason asked as he looked up at her. She went ahead to take a seat and lifted her elbows to the desk before she spoke. "I told you about him before. He is the real leader of THE SIX," she answered him. "So what about Klaus? Who the hell is he?" "Klaus is Arthur's grandson, the only offspring of his that was willing to work for him in the clan," Laura explained. "What do I have to do to meet Arthur?" Jason asked after a brief silence. She let out a wry chuckle before she spoke. "Arthur is a very powerful man. If you think that Klaus is powerful and dangerous, then you should wait until you meet Arthur. He was the founder of THE SIX.He is the kind of man who has at least fifty bodyguards guarding him at the same time. Aside from that, he has a mini zoo in his mansion, with two leopards in it." As Laura did a description, Jason listened with a dropped jaw. He could not possibly believe his ears at all. "Whenever he has an offender, the best way he unleashes
Jason stood in the elevator wondering who the special guest was. The elevator was transparent, and he would see whoever it was before he got to the ground floor. The person was standing facing the wall, but of course, he could point out that figure from a crowd even though he was blindfolded. Once the elevator doors dinged open, Caleb turned around immediately with a subtle smile. His hands were in his pocket as he looked around, fully impressed by the interior of the mansion that could pass for a holiday resort or even a very fancy hotel. "I see that you have done so well for yourself, Jason," Caleb began, his hands still in his pocket as he walked to Jason. "How did you locate this place?" Jason asked, already seething with rage. "Let's just say that it is not so difficult to know where the youngest richest billionaire, and the most eligible bachelor in the state lives," Caleb said. "Who even let you in here?" Jason asked again. "I told them that I am from Klaus, and they let
"Jacob, someone is at the door!!" Jasmine hollered from her bedroom as she pulled her duvet off her and proceeded to slide into her flip-flops. She headed to her closet to look for something decent to put on before she went out of her room. It was Sunday and she usually did not go to work but stayed home to rest. She was not expecting any visitors at first and it left her wondering who was at the door by this early hours of dawn. She soon got into decent clothes and proceeded to go downstairs. As she did, she heard a familiar voice already chatting with Jacob. It had been a month since she set eyes on Jason, and she had not bothered to check up on him as she thought that he was going to be very busy with his new marriage. When she appeared from the staircase, Jason lifted his head to see her. She had on a pair of shorts and a tank top over her petite curvy frame, and her hair was in a ponytail, with some of it falling in bangles around her face. "What are you doing here?" She aske
"It's been a while. I was only waiting for the day that you would rat me out to Klaus," Jason said with a mischievous smile at the corner of his lips. Jasmine strained to hear whatever he was saying over the phone. "I would have loved to continue with this joke but there is a delivery happening tonight," she said to him. His interest spiked up immediately and he looked at Jasmine and signaled her to give him some time. She waved to signal to him that it was fine. "Tell me about it," he instructed her. "It's cocaine. About twenty thousand pounds is being transported tonight, making a ludicrous amount of millions of dollars," she said. She was not done yet. "Klaus cocaine is not an ordinary one. His is a special kind that causes one to be addicted right from the first sniff. If one is not too used to cocaine, it has a high tendency to kill you on the first sniff as well. It leaves you wondering if it is the money that he wants or the blood of his victims. Klaus has been a cunny man sin
The moment Alex gave the order for the cargo to be transported, Gustavo instructed all his men to lay low. They all watched Alex get into his car and drive off. "Is it time yet?" Christine asked Gustavo through the walkie-talkie that she had latched to her blouse. "Of course not. We wait for at least six hours," Gustavo said. "At that time, the cargo is far from the land and external rescue cannot easily meet up."Jason glanced at his wristwatch. It was 9 pm and he promised Jasmine that she was going to come spend the night at her place. Six hours meant that he was going to leave in the early hours of the morning. As though she read his mind, Jasmine began to call his phone. He answered immediately. "Where are you?" She asked him. "I don't know if I can make it before midnight, but I will be there by the early hours of the morning," he explained to her. "I should have thought about this earlier," she said. "You are so unbelievable," she added before she hung up. Jason looked at the p
Jason's eyes fluttered open when the sun's rays hit his eyes. He tried to sit up but the sharp pain on his arm caused him to fall back on the bed with a loud groan. He kept his eyes open as he tried to remember where he was. He looked at his hand and there was an intravenous infusion attached to it. The site of his injury had already been cleaned up and bandaged properly so that the pain was not as gruesome as he felt before. He was still trying to figure out where he was when the door opened and Jasmine walked in with someone. "You are finally awake," she said, hands akimbo. "How long has it been?" He asked her. "Two days, but the doctor has removed the bullet and you are fine now," she answered him. Jason's eyes widened in shock on hearing that he had been lying in the bed for two days. He quickly fumbled around for his phone in his pocket until he realized that he was not in the same clothes as he wore the night of the shootout. "Did you change my clothes?" He asked her. "Of cour
