Henry wore a faint smile on his lips and then started "Mr Blake, your father's disappearance was no accident. It was a well-organized plot made by some members of your family.

Grindel Enterprise shares skyrocketed a few months before he disappeared, amassing more than 50 billion dollars in a few weeks. This increased the company's net revenue just as it did their envy

After your grandfather passed, the company was passed to your father, who grew it into what it is now. Most people did not like his success, they felt it was undeserved, so some companies collaborated on different projects, formed alliances, and spread some rumors all in attempts to ruin the company's image, and soon company's secrets started to leak

It started with the Rucki account, costing the company a loss of 20 billion in revenue. At that point, your father sent me to find out who was leaking the company's private accounts and information to his business competitors

    Henry Hoyd pointed at the miserable woman and asked Jonah, "Does this woman bother you?"Vic felt a little off the hook considering that Henry did not turn his wrath on him. He thought by pretentious flattery that the man would have pity on Morraine and so changed the tone of his voice and pleaded respectfully"Mr. Boyd, please forgive her, she doesn't know who you are" Vic feared what Henry would do if he were aggravated. As the man looked at her in disgust, a chill ran down Vic's spine.Jonah on the other hand was watching the scene unfold with a strange satisfaction. He knew that if these thugs were really connected with the underground world, they'd know not to mess with any member of a high-profile family, and by possession of the seal Henry was a member of the Blake family.They wouldn't dare to attack him.

Was it on Jonah's command?Vic couldn't believe either that Jonah interfered with her beatings. He couldn't understand his motives. If he wanted the thugs to beat them, then why stop? Henry began to huff in anger when Jonah interfered.

Please please, spare me!",However, his pleas fell on deaf ears, as Jonah stared at him in disdain then turned and said to the youngsters "What are you waiting for? Beat the crap out of this fool! Get your hands on him now",Upon his command, the youngsters wasted no time. They dashed forward, grabbed Vic's neck and hair, lifted him, and started beating the crap out of himSoon blood flooded Vic's mouth and a few of his teeth flew out, but the youngsters showed no signs of stopping.

Watching the horrifying scene unfold, Morraine's face was as pale as a sheet of paper, her heart thumping vigorously. However, she could not deflate her ego and beg Jonah to spare Vic's lifeJonah turned towards her with a quizzical gaze and asked, "You can save his life anytime Morraine, all you have to do is beg me" "I will never beg you" Morraine recoiled instinctively It was almost as if Jonah had counted on her saying those words. He grinned sinisterly and said "We'll see about that. This is the man you thought was better and more powerful than me? He can't even stick up for himself. Shameful!",He kicked Vic again and snarled "What a coward!",Just as he was still in the midst of extreme shock and terror, one of the youngsters raised their bat and swung it across Vic's ribsBang!The sharp pain sent a buzz to Vic's brain.

However, now that Jonah had won the contract for Morgan, he had to find a way to keep his family business and image aliveThe truth was that, other than for social recognition and to ascend to the peak of the social pyramid, the Smith family was under a huge tax debt, and the person responsible for this was none other than GeorgeHe had kept this secret from the rest of the family, in hopes of maintaining his position as the Head of the family, but now, he only had four months to find a way to clear their tax debts, if not, not only would he be embarrassed and the Smith family humiliated, he would end up going to jail for tax fraudAs this thought registered in his head, he sneered and cursed Jonah under his breath.

He shifted his gaze towards her and said endearingly, "Thank you, Lydia, that will be all",However, just as the girl turned to leave, he quickly said "Hold on a minute Lydia", then turned towards George with a warm smile and asked"What's your poison, George?",George replied with a shy grin "A bottle of Chardonnay is just fine" "Please..." Morgan said and ushered him to a seat directly opposite his.As they sat down, Lydia brought over the drink with a couple of glasses and walked out of the room immediately after pouring it.George nodded gratefully after taking a sip of the wine and went straight to the point"You seem like a busy man Morgan, so I'll keep this brief and try not to waste your time" he spoke hurriedlyHowever, Morgan ignored his remarks and took another sip of the wine"Can you taste that?"

This building site was purchased under Jonah's name and not the company, so whatever project was done there, legally belonged to Jonah Blake, not Grindel EnterpriseHowever, when George signed the contract, he signed it as an independent contractor with Grindel EnterpriseThis was his first and biggest mistake. Just like most construction projects around the city, George was given a part funding to begin the project and provide the enterprise with an estimated budget of the cost of construction for the building, which he would be paid on completion of the buil

    Everyone was silent when Jonah finished his sentence. After a short while, Mark Galaza asked with an uneasy expression on his face “What do you mean by that young man?”At this time, there was plenty of discussions among the guardian family and no one had expected Jonah to say something as ludicrous as that. According to what the Hudson family had informed him. The young heir of the Blake family was finally going to join them. Together, the four families were going to reshape and remake the new world how they wanted it. But to do that, they still needed the powers of the Osini.They were well acquainted with the prophecy, that the human faction shall rise up against them after the chosen heir defeats the Osini. The only way to ensure that this would not happen was to convince him to use the powers of the Osini to keep the humans in check and by so doing, exact dominance and control over them. At this time, Mark suddenly spoke up “Everyone please calm down. I think Mr Blake is tryi

    Without wasting any time, the chief of police marched forward and slapped the handcuffs on Vic’s wrists. This time around, Vic did not resist the arrest. However, upon seeing him handcuffed, the rest of the people in the crowd started pleading and begging Jonah to spare them “Mr Blake, please forgive us. Can’t we just forget about this experience, I promise we won’t do anything to piss you off again”George Smith, still greatly bewildered and shocked, marched towards Jonah but as he got closer, Jerry stepped forward and blocked his path. He shook his head disdainfully and sneered “Where do you think you’re going?”“I want to have a word with Jonah”“Mr Blake” Jerry corrected grimacing at him Jonah waved his hand and spoke softly “Allow him Jerry. Let me hear what Mr Smith has to say” George strode forward and stood in front of Jonah, afraid to look him in the eye. Then out of nowhere, he knelt and started begging “Please forgive me Jonah.

    Upon hearing this, Vic was the first one to react. He suddenly bursted into a loud pearl of laughter and then stood up before he smiled and said in a calm manner. “It’s okay, calm down everyone. As usual Jonah here is thinking too big of himself, so what if you are the heir to the Blake family. Does that give you the authority to arrest everyone of us here? What even makes you think that you can arrest any of us? On what charge?” He spoke and moved closer towards him with a stern expression on his face. Standing face to face with Jonah at this time, he sneered, creasing his brows “Don’t think that you’re just because you got some money that you’re any different from the lowlife good nothing nobody that you used to be”Everyone at the conference room could not help but stare at Jonah as Vic made that statement, curious to see what he will do. Would he cower just as Vic had said. They had heard little about the president of Grindel Enterprise, but a lot more about the live-in son-in-la

    Jerry and his men were posted up a few miles away from the Daily Times Newspaper building. They had to keep out of view to avoid raising any suspicions with David Koch. Due to recent activities and his encounter with Justin, David had secretly called the attention of some editors in other newspapers. Justin had threatened him to make a report about Jonah Blake, but he knew he could not go up against the young master of the Blake family. At this point, he was in a tough situation. If he didn’t release the news on Jonah, Justin had promised to come back and finish what he started. On the other hand, if he also published another article without Jonah’s authorization. He was sure, the man would kill him. As such the only way out of this situation was to leak the secret of the president of Grindel’s identity to another publication which will then publish the article. That way if Jonah ever found out, he could claim that it was an accidental leak and blame it on his secretary, implying

    After saying this, Jonah turned and strode towards the car. Jerry quickly followed him and upon catching up to him, he grabbed his hand forcefully and asked “Where are we going to?” Jonah answered and said “To find answers. Ms Hudson owes me some explanation” he said and then turned towards Jerry “I need you to reactivate the security detail at the Blake family. It’s come to my understanding that my father deactivated them after we went in hiding. Inform all the mob lords, underground drug chain, everyone that we own. We are going to war”Immediately after saying this, Jonah turned and entered the front seat of the car. He quickly retrieved his phone and called Jean, intending to pretentiously asking about her location to meet up for the piece of the Schitzu necklace. If what Don Petro was saying was true, that would mean that Jean had been lying to him all this time. Which would mean that the other family working hand in hand with the Galazas were none other than the Hudson family.

    After the Osini fell down, Jonah heard a faint groan and quickly his brain registered that Don Petro had been injured. He swiftly turned towards that direction and headed towards the man. As soon as he arrived, he picked Don Petro up, swaddling his head carefully and turned towards Jerry“What happened? Why didn’t it work?” He asked hurriedly“I don’t know, I did everything as you instructed but his wounds were not healing. Jonah he’s losing too much blood, we can’t even rush him to the hospital. He won’t make it there” Jerry spoke frantically. Jonah turned and said “Hold yourself together. Quick hand me what’s left of that root”As he instructed, Don Petro groaned in pain, leaned in and tried to speak. At this time, his skin was pale and blood was flowing from his stomach. Still, he managed a gentle smile and started “Young master, it’s okay. I’m not afraid of dying…” as he spoke, he coughed up blood and at that point Jonah tried to urge him to stop talking but the man persisted

    “Get him out of here!” Jonah shouted. Immediately, Jerry crouched, propped Don Petro on his shoulders and carried him back towards the car. Before Jonah could react, the Osini lunged at him and punched him again in the face, but this time Jonah only staggered a few steps back and then stood up again“There he is!” The Osini exclaimed upon seeing Jonah frown furiously “The big powerful Zurik. You know you could have made this easier, but I have to admit, I think I’m going to enjoy this even more”Jonah was growing more and more impatient of hearing the Osini’s voice. He wielded the blade firmly and then with a quick movement, started running towards the Osini. As he continued, his feet started building great momentum and after a while, he started floating using the Reiki around his body to balance his momentum.Surprisingly, the Osini did not move or try to get out of the way. He remained standing and then when Jonah got closer, he held the knife and stopped Jonah mid air. It seemed

    Jonah remained quiet for a long time and then lifted his gaze and asked “And if I refuse?”Immediately, a flash of disappointment appeared on Justin’s face“Think it over again. This is what you want Jonah, what we both want” the Osini said“No, it’s not what I want” Jonah replied immediately, moving fearlessly towards the Osini“What I want is to rid the world of you. We are not the same. You say we want the same things but we don’t. You are a vile deceptive creature by nature, anywhere you go disaster and pain strikes. All you create along your path is darkness and chaos. For hundreds of years it has always been so, so I don’t care if the guardians lied to me or if the human faction will rise up and be the reason the world breaks. The difference between you and I is that you are willing to destroy and enact all sorts of evil to get what you want, even if that means having to kill thousands or millions of innocent people. You see you’ve got it all wrong, humans are not all bad. I

    “I was wondering when you were going to show up” Jonah said, addressing the Osini and pulling out the blade Immediately, the Osini’s eyes landed on the weapon and for a moment fear flashed in its eyes. When Jonah noticed this, he felt more reassured that this was certainly the weapon to take it down “Where did you get that from?” It asked with a weary look Jonah stretched out the weapon and raised his hand “What? This little thing? I’m glad you recognize it. Now you know that this fight is evenly matched” Justin laughed pompously “I wouldn’t call it even. I do recognize the weapon, those pesky villagers tried to use it on me in one of my lives” he started then looked away, “It was so gratifying when I slit all of their throats with it and burned down their village. You see I’ve been around a long time Jonah, a lot longer than you and you and I have always faced off in every lifetime and up until now you’ve always won, but now things have changed” “It took me dying several times t
