Rise Of The World's Overlord 208. Drop the suite.
On his return to his office, Alaric tried to resume from where he had stopped but he found himself zoning out occasionally. Each time he tried to proceed to the next time, something must come up and when he couldn't hold up anymore, he pushed his seat backwards in anger as he rose. “I can't believe this is happening.” He muttered, pacing from his table to the couch and back. “Silvan might be telling the truth. He doesn't look like someone with mental issues but… I can't believe him even if… ugh!” He tossed his head backwards as it began to hurt. Grabbing a bottle mug, he brewed himself from coffee before returning to his seat. Swirling around, he had his eyes shut, trying to clear his head and reduce the ache that was threatening to split it apart. Still in this position, his door creaked open and he opened an eye. When he discovered it was the legal team of the company, he snapped both eyes open and then sat up. “What is going on here?” He asked, studying them carefully as he
Rise Of The World's Overlord 209. I will fix this mess...
Alaric kept persuading Silvan to drop the suite but as usual, he refused, acting dogmatic. “Okay, I won't try to convince you again. I just wanted you to redeem yourself but it seems you’re not ready for that.” Alaric mouthed. He wanted to go on with his rant when the door flung open and Anthony rushed in, panting like he was chased by a demon. “What is it?” Silvan asked. “It seems your period of grace has expired. You should have listened to me and I wouldn't hesitate to speak to him on your behalf.” Alaric groaned like he felt for him. “Sir, the prosecution raided our home, office and the company. They took everything they could lay their hands on.” Anthony said in a breath. “What?” Silvan gasped in shock..Shifting his gaze to Alaric, he found him combing through his hair with his fingers as a smile tugged the side of his lips. “You have a hand in this.” He said with an accusing tone. “Yes, I do. Is there a problem?” Alaric was enjoying the look of despair on his face. “Wh

Smirking, Alaric plopped on the couch, crossing his legs as he twirled his hair around his fingers.At the moment, he was watching the news that kept broadcasting about Silvan's involvement in embezzlement and the rest. Exhaling, he snapped his fingers and at once Sam rushed to him, “Sir,” “Brew me a cup of cocoa.” He said, dismissing him with a hand wave. When Sam returned with his cocoa, he relieved it from him, taking a deep drunk of the scalding liquid. “Liam is amazing, don’t you agree?” He asked, his gaze on Sam who quickly nodded when he realised he was the one he was speaking to. “Do you think I should let go of him? I mean, I shouldn't push forward with my intention seeing what he did to Silvan.” Sam pressed his lips into a thin line as he began to rack his head. He didn't know what to say to him and he was scared of saying something that would trigger his reaction. Biting his lower lips, he stepped backwards, “Please excuse me, I need to use the bathroom.” Before Alar

Liam didn't say anything to him, instead he lowered himself on the couch with Naya's help. After a long silence which was tension filled, Liam tossed a document at him. “You have to make a promise that you aren't going to return to your sin and also, not trying any funny games in the name of retaliation.” “What about my company? We are crashing and you are the only one I can call for help.” He took a deep breath and with his hands clasped together, he said, “Help me save my company. That is my family's only source of income and I cannot taste the life of penury.” Now sobbing, he grasped his pants, “I was born into affluence, I don't think I can survive a day in penury.” He was sobbing uncontrollably now. Moved to pity, Naya wanted to plead on his behalf but she felt she would be crossing the line since she wasn't the one who was hurted. “You have to sign that first before I decide to help you or not.” Silvan didn't need any further prompting before he signed the documents, not e

“...according to my captor who granted me freedom after several hours of pleading, he said, Alaric Armani was behind my kidnap saying he was currently undergoing a project in biotechnology…” Alaric didn't listen to the rest of his words as his heart beat increased. Gulping, he wiped the sweat rolling down his face with the back of his palm before screaming, “William Armani.” He believed Liam was behind it not because he was the only one who knew about his biotechnology project but because he was the only one who was bold enough to accost him.“What am I going to do now?” He muttered, darting his eyes around as he clenched the steering wheel of his car with both hands. All through the night, Alaric was pacing around his bedroom, trying to come up with a solution for the situation on the ground but his head was blank. The following morning, Liam woke up only to hear devastating news from the financial manager who had informed him of the plummeting stocks.Wondering what was going on
Rise Of The World's Overlord 213. “Are you a trafficker now?”
Biting his bottom lips, Alaric tilted his head to the side. He was trying hard not to explode in anger but Carlton kept putting him to the test. “Can I at least have a simple explanation of what is going on? You can't barge in here and start creating a scene.” An equally enraged Carlton said, glaring murderously at him. He wanted to go on with his rant but the moment Alaric grabbed the files on his table, he pressed his lips into a thin line. Before he knew what was happening, his office was in a mess but Alaric wasn't done yet. He kept on upturning anything he could lay his hands on until the whole place was a mess. “Here, this is exactly the position I'm in now.” He said, his chest rising and falling. “I have been announced to be a human trafficker, take down the news or I will take you down.” He was pointing his fingers to his face to show he wasn't bluffing. “You should have told me that when you came in earlier instead of creating a scene.” Carlton said after him and at on
Rise Of The World's Overlord 214. Be Discreet.
Shifting his attention to Alaric who was seated at the corner of the hall, he couldn't help but to sigh. It seems like he was obvious of the chaos he had created. Sitting calmly like nothing was going on was Alaric whose head was running haywire with different ideas at the same time. He had to wriggle himself out of the mess before he became too late but it seemed nothing could be done about it. When he raised his head, he locked eyes with Liam who was staring but instead of acting like he hadn't seen him, he waved at him, acting like all was well. Taking a deep breath, Liam returned his attention to the stakeholders who had resumed creating a mess. “Instead of throwing him out of the company, I suggest we put him on probation for a few months, by then everything would be resolved.” Liam suggested and at once he was faced with opposition. “Are you thinking?” The yells from all over the room shook the foundation of the building. Liam tried to stop the noise but when he couldn't
Rise Of The World's Overlord 215. He Is out of the cell.
A few hours later, Liam decided to see Alaric at the police station where he was locked up in the holding cell. Immediately when Alaric saw him, he walked up to the rods, grasping them like his whole life depended on it. “I had no idea you would come see me here.” He chuckled. “Alaric, this is not funny. You're in deep shit at the moment and the least you can do is to try and wriggle yourself out.” He chided. “Have you found Giovanni, I told you he is the one behind the viral spread of the power tripping video. He said, ignoring his words. “I haven't. I will try tracking him down if he exists though.” “Oh, cut that crap.” He snapped rolling his eyes at him. “You think I didn't find out what happened that night?” He huffed. Rolling his eyes, he gestured to Liam to move an inch closer which he did, “Under your authority, he was switched and changed with the skeleton of a human after infusing his DNA into the bones.” He whispered. Pulling away from him, he began to hit his palm l
