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
Chapter 131“I am here!”Owen screamed as the emergency van came to a stop. The medical practitioners came down immediately and they helped him with Mr. Richard as they placed him in their van and left, Owen got inside his car and rode himself to the hospital even though his hands were busy shaking. They finally arrived at the hospital and Mr Richard was rushed to the emergency ward. “We will be back soon. You have to calm down and wait for us” one of the nurses said and he was barely able to nod. Owen's heart raced as he paced back and forth in the hospital waiting room, his mind consumed by worry and fear. The sight of Mr. Richard being rushed into the emergency ward had sent a shockwave through him, filling him with a sense of dread he couldn't shake.He glanced anxiously at the clock, each passing minute feeling like an eternity as he waited for news of Mr. Richard's condition. Thoughts raced through his mind, memories of their time together flooding back as he prayed for his re
Chapter 132Owen strode through the dimly lit corridors of the prison, his heart pounding with urgency. He had to find Martin, the only person who could lead him to Reynold's hideout and save Maya and Hayden. As he approached Martin's cell, he could feel the tension mounting inside him. He was asked to wait for him and as each minute passed by, his heart was beating fast"Martin," Owen called out as he reached the iron bars, his voice echoing through the narrow passageway.Martin, sitting on the edge of his cot, looked up with a smirk. "Well, well, well, if it isn't Owen," he chuckled, the sound dripping with sarcasm. "What brings you to my humble abode? I am sure you are not here to see me, there is no way you would be here to visit me right?”Owen clenched his fists, suppressing the urge to lash out at Martin. "I need your help," he said through gritted teeth going straight to the point, he saw no reason why he shouldn’t go straight to what had brought him here.Martin raised an eye
Chapter 133The piercing ring of Owen's phone cut through the silence of his room, jolting him awake from a fitful sleep. Rubbing the sleep from his eyes, he reached for his phone, his heart pounding with anticipation. It was the doctor."Hello?" Owen answered, his voice tinged with urgency.The doctor's voice on the other end was filled with relief. "Owen, it's me. I have good news. Mr. Richard has woken up after the surgery."A surge of relief flooded through Owen's veins, dispelling the fog of sleep that had clouded his mind. "That's fantastic news! I'll be right there. Thank you so much doctor, thank you for keeping him safe”“It’s nothing, I was only doing my job” the doctor replied and the call finally came to an end.Without a moment's hesitation, Owen jumped out of bed and quickly dressed, his mind buzzing with thoughts of Mr. Richard's recovery. He had been waiting for this moment, praying for his uncle’s swift return to consciousness.Arriving at the hospital, Owen wasted no
Chapter 134The hum of the bus filled the air as Owen and the policemen embarked on their journey towards Mr Reynold's place. With each passing mile, the tension between them hung heavy, a palpable reminder of the weight of their mission.Owen's gaze was fixed on the window, his thoughts consumed by the gravity of their task. Maya and Hayden's lives hung in the balance, their fate uncertain as they hurtled toward their confrontation with Mr. Reynold, he was scared as much he wanted to act normal and hide it he couldn’t because he didn’t know what might happen and what Mr Reynold might do, he noticed his hands were shaking in as much he wanted to hide it, he couldn’t and each time all he could do was let out a sigh, he couldn’t wait to see Maya and Hayden out of his clutches.The DPO's voice broke through Owen's reverie, his tone laced with a sense of determination. "We're getting close," he remarked, his eyes fixed on the road ahead. "We need to be prepared for anything. You don’t hav
Owen moved with shaky steps as he approached the truck. The crate in his hands seemed to weigh a thousand tons that would break his back from the terrible weight he was feeling."Hey, put your back into it! Or it's gonna fall!" One man who stood at the truck yelled at him.Owen struggled to keep his hands under the crate even as he approached. He heard the warnings, but his body couldn't obey him anymore.His hands slipped and the crate crashed on the ground with a loud thud."Now you've done it..." The man drew close to Owen in anger."I'm sorry..." Owen muttered."What's there to be sorry about? You can't even lift something this much. Who put you here?" He asked."Boss did." Owen replied as he managed to stand somewhat and wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead.He sighed with resignation as he looked at his rumpled and dirty clothes and the mess he had made.His dressing wasn't supposed to be ruined to that extent because lifting things wasn't in his original job description.
