Chapter 123“Uncle Reynold?” Hayden called refusing to believe that Mr. Reynold had kidnapped him, Mr. Reynold stepped into the light and burst into laughter, he had a mischievous smile on his face. Hayden's heart pounded against his chest as he struggled against the ropes binding him to the chair. The dark room only added to his sense of dread, and the sight of Mr. Reynold standing before him sent chills down his spine."Please, let me go!" Hayden pleaded, his voice strained with fear.Mr. Reynold's eyes gleamed with malice as he towered over Hayden, a sinister grin playing on his lips. "I'm afraid I can't do that, Hayden," he sneered. "You've been a thorn in my side for too long. I warned you! I warned the both of you to step away but you didn’t and kept on trying my patience, you dare make them arrest me and tarnish my image in front of everyone!”Hayden's mind raced, trying to make sense of the situation. How had he ended up here, at the mercy of his uncle who wanted nothing but t
Chapter 124“I don’t understand what is going on uncle, I am trying to comprehend everything but it seems I can’t, Hayden uncle Reynold’s biological son? How is that possible?! What more secrets that I don’t know because so far it seems this family is full of shit!”Owen muttered, his frustration at its peak but Mr Richard didn’t say a word and he moved closer to him, hoping he was going to speak and tell him it was all a joke. “Uncle can you say something?!” he yelled and Mr Richard looked at him. “Tell me you only lied to get Hayden out of Uncle Reynold clutches”“It wasn’t a lie Owen, Hayden is his son, I had kept it a secret because I know how bad this might mess up the family, both for him and Hayden” Mr Richard replied and Owen sat in stunned silence, his mind reeling from Mr. Richard's revelation. He suddenly laughed finding it hard to process everything Mr Richard said and he wondered how Hayden would react when he found out about it. He couldn't believe what he had just hea
Chapter 125“My son?! He better be lying! I never asked Richard to help me take care of a child, he should have allowed her to abort the pregnancy, if I wanted a child I would have gotten one for a long time now! What kind of yea he is this!” Mr. Reynold growled and suddenly his thoughts were interrupted by a knock on his door, he cleared his throat before speaking “Come in” The door was pushed open and one of his men stepped inside, he had been hiding in his private villa he got recently and luckily for him, he hadn’t told anyone about it and no one could easily find him there. His guard stepped forward and bowed his head, he handed over the file in his hand to Mr Reynold who arched his brows before collecting it. “The DNA result is out and I decided to bring it immediately “the guard replied and he cleared his throat. “This should be between us, no one should hear about it and if I hear anything from anyone I will assume it wan you, and no matter where you run off to, I will find
Chapter 126“What’s going on Owen?”Maya asked and Owen ran his hands over his head feeling frustrated, at this point the driver ignited the car engine driving them from the family mansion. Owen let out a deep breath before turning his attention to Maya. “Well, It seems Simon might have found the location Hayden is and we need to act fast, I am going to his house to find more information” Owen replied and Maya’s eyes widened in shock. “Oh my! I seriously hope is true and we can get Hayden from his clutches” Maya stated and Owen nodded without saying another word. He rested his head on the car and squeezed his eyes shut, his mind was busy thinking about a lot of possibilities and there were a lot of thoughts swirling in his head at once that he ended up knowing how far they had gone in their journey. A while later, he heard the car come to a stop and he opened his eyes, he saw the car had stopped in front of Simon’s house so they both got out of the car immediately. As Owen and May
Chapter 127“Who could have tipped him? It was something that was supposed to be swift and no one would have known, I still don’t understand how this happened, and he knew we were coming” Owen growled, he was restless. “I don’t know what we are going to do, but don’t worry everything will definitely work out” Maya replied, but Owen snorted, he had never felt so restless before. He was busy paving about, his pacing echoed in the somber atmosphere of the sitting room, each step a testament to his frustration and guilt. His mind raced with thoughts of Hayden, the elusive Mr. Reynold, and the failed operation that had left them all reeling. “I still can’t believe this! I am trying to wrap my head around everything that had happened, but it’s only getting worse, where do we know he might have taken Hayden to, are we sure he is alive?” Owen voiced out and Mr. Richard stood up. “Hayden is alive I am sure of that, he might torture him, but I don’t think he will kill BUK that easily” Mr Ri
Chapter 128Mr Reynold was busy pacing about in the room he was in when he suddenly heard a knock on the door, he cleared his throat and spoke. “Open the door”The door was pushed open and one of his men came inside bowing himself before him. “Is everything alright?” he inquired. “Yes sir, I am just here with the file you requested” the guard replied and he cleared his throat, motioning him to move closer. “Bring it let me see” he replied and then he moved closer. He gave Mr Reynold the files and stepped out of the room, as soon as he was gone, Mr Reynold sat down on his seat hoping he could find what he needed in the file. As Mr. Reynold sifted through the files his men had provided, a seething anger brewed within him. Each document, each report, seemed to mock his efforts. He had fled the villa in a panicked rush when the police had come knocking, seeking refuge in this less-than-ideal hideout. He was hoping with those files he would be able to gather what might help him, overco
Chapter 129“It’s about how Owem was able to know our location” his men replied and he arched his brows at him. Mr. Reynold paced back and forth in his study, his mind consumed by the urgent matter at hand. His trusted man stood before him, a grave expression etched upon his face."Speak," Mr. Reynold commanded, his voice low and steely.The man cleared his throat, his gaze unwavering. "Sir, I've discovered why our location was leaked. It was one of Owen's men, a skilled hacker, who hacked the software and they were able to find out your location." the man started and Mr Reynold hit his fist on the wall. “I know one person that’s capable of doing this! It’s Simon! It’s no other person but him! It seems he didn’t suffer enough the last time I had him and he is out again to annoy me.” A surge of anger coursed through Mr. Reynold's veins, his fists clenching at his sides. “Is there anything you want us to do sir? We have been trying to find his location but it’s not working, we have do
Chapter 130Owen was busy going through the file he had acquired from Mr. Reynold’s home, he was trying to find out if there was another hideout of Mr. Reynold he could find. Just then he heard approaching footsteps that caused him to stop what he was doing, he saw Mr. Richard entering his room, and he sighed and dropped the file he was working on. “Uncle Richard” he called and Mr Richard sat down on the bed. “How are you doing?” he asked and his gaze fell on the file Owen was busy with. “It seems you are busy, I should leave I might only come here to disturb you” he quickly added and Owen dropped the file on the table. “You are not disturbing me, uncle, I am glad you are here, I am trying to find out if Uncle Reynold has another villa he is hiding” Owen replied and Mr. Richard’s hand traveled all over his face. “I don’t know Owen, I don’t think he had another and even if he does he won’t be there knowing we are going to find out” Mr Richard replied and Owen nodded. “I am tired Ow
