Chapter 92

Madam Aurelia flipped through the files Mr. Jones had placed on the table and once she was done, she tossed it aside.

“This mission is simple. We just need your hacking skills.” She said her gaze fixed on Liam who had been staring at her.

“Please tell me more about it.” He replied, eager to find out what the mission was all about.

“A few weeks ago, we discovered a group of people who want to trade the top secrets of the nation to foreigners and so we need to stop them at all costs.” She reeled.

Gulping, Liam rubbed his hands against the fabric of his pants. It wasn't about the mission, but what the people were about to do. Selling out the secret of the nation no matter how little it was, was like selling the nation.

“Mom, we need to hasten up with this otherwise, the whole nation will be in trouble.” He rapped.

“Exactly! That's why I decided to ask for your help.”

“Of course Mom, I'm ready to do anything provided the country is safe.”

Smiling, Madam Aurelia held his

    Chapter 93Madam Aurelia was shocked beyond words that she kept staring at Liam like it was the first time she was getting to meet him.She was clearly not expecting this news and even if she ought to have an idea about it, she felt it should not be from Mr. Jones, rather it should be directly from him. Mr. Jones on the other hand was wearing a neutral expression as he waited for the phase to pass away quickly. With the way she was acting, he had detected she had no idea about Liam's marriage and so he was the whistleblower.Bending his head to the ground, he was staring hard at the floor as he constructed an apology in his head to say to Liam once they were out. As for Liam, he was fiddling with his fingers as he darted his eyes around and at the same time was thinking of the right words to say to his mom.“I have no idea until now.” Madam Aurelia said, breaking the ominous silence in the room. Chuckling nervously, Liam dug his hand into his hair. He was still thinking of what to

    Chapter 94Taking the phone off her ear, Naya stared at the screen which was still on, it was like a dream to her since she wasn't expecting him to put a call across to her, not now or even in the next months. Already feeling sweaty, she rubbed her hand against her forehead, trying to contain her ragged breath. “Naya, are you still there? It's Nelson.” her brother asked since he was wondering why she had gone mute all of a sudden. Currently, he was at the phone booth in the barrack, gripping the wall and looking over his shoulder at the same time. Slowly, Naya placed the phone back against her ear as she gulped. She was trying to speak but words had refused to form no matter how hard she tried. “Are you well?” She managed to ask after a while. “Yes, I'm. How have you been?” He didn't allow her to give a response before he started speaking, “I'm sorry Naya, I haven't been able to reach out to you. Here at the barracks, we are restricted to using our phones and we can only operate

    Chapter 95Stunned, Liam couldn't respond to this. He was just staring at the wall behind them as she kept kissing him with no care in the world. When she finally pulled away, she staggered backwards, pushing her hair away from her face. Chuckling like a maniac, she tried to speak but she burped, sending her words back into her throat. “I will tell you this…” she staggered forward, poking his chest with her middle finger. “Even if you keep pushing me away, I won't let you go. I'm going to make you mine, I will ensure that you love me the same way I love you.” “Fine.” He replied, raising his hand above his head. Now laughing, she wrapped her hands across her chest and after a while she fell on the couch causing Liam to rush towards her. While he was cleaning her up, he kept staring at her face. She had passed out now and so the house was quiet. “I wonder what made her excited or maybe sad for her to drink this much. Ugh! It's so embarrassing.” He muttered, shaking his head to t

    Chapter 96After a few more minutes of a little talk between the three, Mr. Jones led them towards the elevator and they all got in. Instead of going upwards, the elevator went downwards, making Liam wonder where they were headed but he didn't say anything since no one else reacted to the reversal. On arrival at their destination, the door dinged and then slid open for them to step out which they did without hesitation. “To avoid publicity, I opted for an underground gym.” Mr. Jones was in front of them as he looked around the fully equipped underground gym. This wasn't the first time he was coming here and so he was familiar with every fit and fixture. Liam on the other hand was overwhelmed with the amount of equipment that was present. He had been to several gyms but this was different from others. It looked like a world class gym as it was fully equipped. They were still at the entrance of the gum when a door creaked open and a man stepped out. With a smile etched on the side

    Chapter 97The next morning, Liam was still lying in bed when his phone beeped. Thinking it was a text from his mom or Mr. Jones, he quickly reached out for his phone only to toss it and then let out a grunt of frustration. The text turned out to be from his service provider and he didn't even bother to read through it since he was pissed. Shutting his eyes tightly, he cranked his head to he side before taking his back off the bed. With his legs now on the fluffy rug that covered the floor of his room, he bent his head and then began to study the patterns that were spread out. While doing this, the only thing that was ringing in his head was the mission. He had trained for the physical part of the mission but not the technical part that involves his skills. He felt he should at least have a hint of what to expect and then he would be able to prepare adequately for it but no one said a word concerning it leaving him perturbed. Since this was somewhat like a national mission, he di

    Chapter 98When Liam arrived at the family mansion, the first person he came across was Nathan who was on his way out. Immediately Nathan realized he was the one approaching him, he halted and with his hands wrapped across his chest, said, “I thought you wanted to move, what are you still doing here?” “I want to thank granny for granting my wish.” Liam replied with a smirk, watching the blood on Nathan's face drying up at his words. “Okay.” He nodded and then stepped aside, creating room for passage. Just when Liam was about to grab the handle of the door, he cleared his throat to get his attention and immediately he got it, with a hoarse voice, he said, “According to Naya, you guys are moving into a duplex of high taste, how were you able to get the money.” “I worked my ass off.” He didn't wait to hear more of his talks, instead he pushed the door in, ushering himself into the living room. Fortunately for him, he didn't have to request Granny Elena's presence since she was in t

    Chapter 99Pressing his lips tightly together into a thin line, Liam shook his head sideways before attempting to wriggle from her grip but surprisingly, her grip was strong on him. “Get off already.” He chided but she didn't let go of his hand, rather, she pulled herself up, smiling like she just won a lottery.“Why do you keep pushing me away?” She groaned and then burped. “You're drunk, please get some rest.” He tried to make her lie on the bed but she wouldn't agree. She kept on leaning towards him until their skin was brushing against the other. “Please… stop pushing me away, it hurts.” She groaned. Staring down at her, Liam pushed his free hand into his hair and then let out a low grunt of frustration. With Lily, it was different since he had invested his time and everything he had in him into their three years relationship only to get heartbroken. Being intimate with her back then wasn't a hassle. Whenever she initiated it, he always responded to it but with Naya it was d

    Chapter 100Now seated behind a table in the cafeteria for dinner, Liam, who had been pondering on how Dave was able to come up with an idea on how to crush their opponent was picking on his food as he cast Dave frequent stares. When he couldn't keep his question to himself anymore, he leaned forward and with his hands clasped in front of him, asked, “Is there something I need to know?”“I already said I was a black hat hacker, I wasn't bluffing.” Dave replied, not bothering to take his eyes off his plate of food. Deep down, he was mad at himself for being unable to keep his identity a secret. He never wanted anyone to know about his hacking skills but since the situation needed it, he had no choice but to help. “Whoa! I thought you were bluffing back there.” Sam chuckled lightly. Suddenly, he pushed his hand forward and with a grin plastered on his face, he said, “You guys are cool. I'm the only one who isn't cool here.” He said the last part with a huff and then pushed a piece of

    Six months later… The county had returned to normalcy after a thorough reform was put in place. To honor those that had made it happen, a mass meeting was organized where all members of the country were invited to be a witness to. Tyler Greene, the newly appointed President, was present in the mass meeting, being an icon in the revamped version of the country. His face was brightly marked with excitement, as he left the smile on his face and was distributing it to the citizens, who were seeing him. They had come in their masses as they wanted to witness the occasion first hand."First, I'll formally announce the reason for his honorable, reasonable and democratic meeting." Tyler started, his voice cool at first, accompanied with the sound of his laughter. "We all know about the change in the course of events in this country and those who made it happen.." Tyler spoke with clear gladness and couldn't hide it. Tyler's vice was beside him, holding a thick colored banner in his han

    Daniel's voice was loud, as he kept making gestures with his hands. He was seated with his friends, conversing with them about the current news that spread around the country. Suddenly, someone rushed into their midst and exclaimed, "I heard another news…" "What's that, boy?" Daniel said, his voice breaking confidently, as if he would not be shaken by Liam's dealings. "Tell me, what's the news?" "The deal you made…" the boy started, but as soon as Daniel realized it was about a deal, he took the boy to a side to continue their talk in whispers. "The deal you strongly made and stamped with Karl had been released and broadly spread!" "What deal?" Daniel questioned him out of shock, and was rubbing his face until he stopped, as asked the boy again, "I don't get you. What deal?" "The chip infusion." The boy replied, his voice lighter as soon as he sensed anger in Daniel's voice."What!" Daniel reacted, as he nearly collapsed. "You know what? Just run away!" "To where?" The boy ask

    Alaric had gone back to the operating room, and was still in bed. Fortunately, the surgeon realized he was all right. Alaric was totally healed, but he happened to have lost his memory. His constant surrender to Karl was all robotic. He was later brought from the operation room to a ward, on instruction that he needed to rest. "Hello?" A surgeon asked him. "What do you feel now?" "Feel what?" Alaric returned, his voice clear but light. "What do you mean?" "Oh, I know you're just coming back to normalcy…" the surgeon said, turning to his colleagues. "Do you think he is totally okay?" "Yeah," another surgeon responded, walking up to Alaric to check on him. "I think we should seek the attention of the senior surgeon, so he can see him." "Is that necessary?" The first surgeon questioned in return, holding her lips as she smiled. "Well, you can. At least, he is all right." Soon, the senior surgeon was around. He turned to the first surgeon and whispered to her ears, "I hope no chi

    Kaylan didn't perform less than she was asked to do. She had spread the news of Rodriguez's illegal dealings vastly. Liam had ordered the release of the article which contained almost everything about Rodriguez and Karl. Rodriguez had felt comfortable with Karl's soothing words, continuing his illegal business with Karl became easy for him that he had no remorse, and even hid his fears about any form of leakage. "How far have you gone with the task I gave you?" Liam asked Kaylan, his voice deep but clear, an expression of his excitement. "In what state could the biotech company be, right now?" He mused. "I've forwarded the news to my team." Kaylan replied, returning a clearer tone in her own voice. "It will reach the masses easily that way…""I'll prove to Karl that I can thwart his schemes and nullify all his tricks." Liam chuckled, his voice making him sound like a villain and threatening Karl's attitude as though he was present. "Exactly, Liam." Kaylan responded in agreement.

    258. I have evidence...

    To spice up their plans, Liam had mailed a flashdrive to Rodriguez. The flash drive contained all the information they had gathered about him and Karl. Rodriguez made up his mind not to return the flash drive as he had a conclusion that something important was attached to it and so he was curious to find out the content. With that he made his way back to his office and as the Chief Justice he sat behind his imposing mahogany desk in the room.His eyes were fixed on the small, sleek flash drive that had been tossed on the table. The audacity of Liam to think of doing this hit him but he smiled while the question popped in his mind.Who did he think he was, trying to blackmail him?What was on his mind?Curiosity getting the better of him, Rodriguez inserted the drive into his computer and waited as the files began to load. Suddenly, the screen flickered to life, revealing an array of documents and recordings. Rodriguez's eyes widened on seeing the images which had himself includ

    Madam Aurelia began walking in circles inside the living room as thoughts of what they were going to do next consumed her thoughts. She was still recovering from what she had seen in the file that Dave had brought, and the evidence was sickening. There was no doubt as to whether Karl and Rodriguez were crooks, and should they manage to expose them, it would definitely influence the outcome in their favor.Liam walked into the room, “Did you manage to find anything good among the papers?” He inquired, looking eager and hopeful.“Yes.” Madam Aurelia replied, gripping the folder firmly. “There are records of money movement as well as transactions which are quite illicit. If we conduct this campaign in the proper manner and present the right audiences with this evidence, the extent of Karl and Rodriguez’s dealings… It would be interesting corruption news that will come to light.”“Then we have no time to waste.” Liam affirmed in his stern tone. “Whatever this information gives us, they

    256. This is perfect!

    Liam stepped out of Tyler Greene’s office with a heavy heart, blaming himself for keeping his expectations high. He had wanted a better answer than that. However, Tyler’s indecision was a cause for concern. Time was running fast and voices of opposition against Karl were still weak. During the drive home, Liam found himself troubled. Would Tyler really lend his support for the cause? Or was he simply yet another hindrance in their efforts? He needed to collect his mind and think of a way out but he was too worried to even think properly. Instead of heading to him, Liam headed to the hotel to meet with Madam Aurelia who sat in the living room in the living room on his arrival. Her face was solemn, though she appeared to be happy with his arrival. “How did the meeting with Tyler go?” she asked, concern evident in her tones.“It didn’t go as well as I hoped.” Liam admitted, ruffling his hair. “He is not willing to take any actions against Karl, and I am afraid he has no nerves f

    255. We need to strategize...

    Liam stood still only to start pacing about because he was restless. He began to plan what step to take after Alaric's revelation. He was desperate to put an end to Daniel and Karl but he didn’t know how to go about it. He felt like an ill-fated knight who had lost everything; the very thought of Harrison now felt as if it was a heavy stone placed over him.Madam Aurelia was seated on the table sorting some papers. “We need to strategize on how best we are going to eliminate Karl.” Her tone was firm although not loud. “It is not enough to just wait and see what he intends to do next.” She added, casting him a glance. “Of course I understand,” Liam answered and twirls his hair with his fingers. “But what can we do? There is too much influence and too many people surrounding him.”At this point, Giovanni dashed into the living room, his eyes darkened as he looked around, “Liam!” he shouted – gasping for air. “Daniel and Karl are up to something. We must hurry before it is too late.”

    254. This is very bad.

    Alaric felt dejected in that small dingy room as he was at a stand still. He found himself strapped to a chair with metal rings cutting deep into his wrists. On the other side of the room, Xavier was strutting around confident with a sneer on his face. “Look at you now, Alaric ” Xavier said as he put his hands on his hips and laughed. “Formerly you had stature, nowadays you are just a flat back guy. What do you think about it?”Alaric turned his gaze toward him, internal rage reflected on his face. “You think this is a joke? You’re a mere puppet in Karl’s shadow. You will realize that one day.”Xavier let out another laugh. “Karl is top management. You would have done better staying with him. Instead, you went soft and turned the other way, and now look what this has led you to.”“Break all the connections with Karl.” Alaric spoke in a strained tone. “He’ll drain you dry. You will end up exactly like me.”Xavier shook his head but his grin had gone away. “You do not get it. This is
