Rise Of The World's Overlord 211. Let sleeping dogs lie.
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
Rise Of The World's Overlord 212. ...seething with anger.
“...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
Rise Of The World's Overlord 216. No Unity.
When Liam got to the police station to pick Alaric up on his request, he saw Carlton once again and the only thing he could make out of the scenario was that he was the brain behind it. “Here you are.” Alaric chuckled, walking up to him with a grin on his face. “You don't look pleased.” He mouthed, patting his back. “I'm still trying to wrap my head…” He was still speaking when Alaric hushed him, swirling him in Carlton's direction. “I always go for the best, you know.” He laughed, Liam joining him with an uneasy tone. “I will be on my way now.” Carlton said, “Please stay away from trouble, lie low otherwise…” “Don't lecture me. You were able to pull this off because I mounted pressure on you. For the records, I was the one who freed myself and not the other way around.” Alaric snarled. Shifting his attention to Liam, he squeezed his shoulder, “What about a drink?” “Yeah.” Liam had no choice but to give in. Sitting beside Alaric in the bar, Liam was apprehensive. He kept runni
Rise Of The World's Overlord 217. Congratulations...
A few months later… Standing behind the large mirror in his bedroom, Liam was doing his buttons while Naya went about searching for the perfect tie for him. They were going for an occasion together. It was a get together feast, organized by AI technology to celebrate the recent ground breaking project and worldwide recognition. Just then, Rose barged into his bedroom without bothering to knock. With her hands across her chest and her brows knotted in a frown, she pulled her feet towards his bed, plopping on the edge. “What is the problem?” Naya and Liam asked in unison, both of them rushing to her side. “I'm not in support of this.” She muttered, making Liam roll his eyes. They had been going on this matter back and forth for a while now, yet she was still acting dogmatic. “Come on Rose, we were invited and declining with no valid reason is rude.” “You're the one thinking it's not a valid reason.” She snapped, her hands now resting on her hips. Pulling herself up, she walked
Rise Of The World's Overlord 218. Making You A Promise.
For a minute, no one made a reaction as they all had their attention on Alaric who was seething in anger. Grabbing Liam's award, he was about to smash it against the floor when Giovanni held his hand from behind. “Get off me.” He yelled, trying to shake him off but his grip was tight. “Don't do anything stupid.” He snapped, snatching the award from him and then pushing him backwards. “Here you go.” He handed the plaque back to Liam before returning his gaze to Alaric who was still seething. Soon there were murmurs and whispers all over. Everyone wanted to speak and at the same time get to the root of what had happened. Where she sat, Madam Aurelia was already having a panic attack. Alaric’s sudden behavior met only one thing and that was he was livid. “I wonder what he is going to do now.” She muttered, blaming herself for not stopping them when they suggested giving Liam an award. “Please calm down.” Mr. Jones said, trying to calm her down but it was of no use. “He is going
