“Mrs. Parker, get your hands off my boss and keep your distance, or we’ll make you.”The firm feminine voice that reached Veronica’s ears made her turn her gaze to the side to find Abigail and all twenty-two McArthur bodyguards now pointing their rifles at her. The sight was quite chilling as they were all looking at her with intense disdain as if she was some filthy beggar holding onto their prince. They simply were not joking around. Veronica quickly let go of William’s shirt, and she took a couple of steps away from him.William turned to Abigail, silently telling her to stand down. Abigail then stared back, beckoning her young master to rethink this decision. This woman now knew of William’s most kept secret, she couldn’t be left alone to tell the world. If people from the Parker family came and took her away, they could only imagine what she would tell them. After that, it will certainly be a matter of time before the Parker family finds out that Billiard McArthur was keeping a
William was huddled underneath the protection created by the large broken walls of the collapsed management tower. Right alongside Abigail, he didn’t dare to even peek outside as they both could still hear the sound of gunshots and the thick walls being pelted with bullets. Among these heavy sounds, William and his head of bodyguards could hear the fleet of helicopters becoming increasingly defeating, and it was clear to both of them that they were landing on William’s property.William had his head down and his hands clasped over both ears while glaring at the entrance. He had questions forming in his mind and yearning for answers. Who are these people? Are they sent by someone he knew or someone he had never met? Was the target even him? Could they possibly be people who have been offended by Veronica Parker?Following the last question in his mind, William vividly recalled the look of horror on Veronica's face as her body was heavily riddled with bloody bullet holes. Those shoot
William stared at this Arabian man in the distance. Despite his slightly bearded face, there was no doubt that Muhammad Bashan Khan was an incredibly handsome man. His suit was of an exquisite material as well, and the air with which he carried himself gave credibility to how high his status was. Apart from this, William’s eyes shifted to the men pointing their guns at him. Looking at them, he could tell that these were ordinary bodyguards who were under Bashan Khan’s command. But then William’s eyes shifted to those men fighting against his McArthur bodyguards in the farther distance. Over there, it felt like a different space entirely, as the battle going on there was at a destructive level. Those men who have engaged the twenty-two McArthur bodyguards were all clothed in black outfits. Plus, their faces were covered with black clothes, making them look somewhat like ninjas. The most shocking thing about those black-clad men, though, was that they were moving at a similar speed t
William couldn’t help but show an expression of jealousy before he quickly gathered himself. “I see you’re the only one wearing one.” Bashan Khan’s body stiffened as soon as he heard these words. He could no longer feign calmness, and he raised his hand, watching as his gunmen readied their guns at William. “Willi Chain, I will make you take those words as your last on this earth.”William frowned. “Abigail!”“Got it!” Abigail, who had remained ever watchful while shielding William’s body with her own, suddenly dashed towards the fifteen armed men in military uniform. Using her speed and agility, she delivered punches to the faces of these armed men while simultaneously ridding them of their guns. Her punches were tailored to simply knock them unconscious. By the time Abigail dashed back to stand protectively in front of her young master, all fifteen armed men dropped straight to the ground as they had lost consciousness.“You shouldn’t have done that.” Bashan Khan had a displ
It had to be noted that Bashan Khan brought as many as thirty-five masked men with him, along with those fifteen human-level armed men who had been knocked out by Abigail. With these men holding out each other’s hands, a wide circle was formed, enclosing Bashan Khan and William with a human-made boundary.William couldn’t help it as his gaze shifted outside of the artificial ring to find that every single one of the twenty-two McArthur bodyguards had been pounded into an unconscious state. Turning his gaze to the opposite direction, William also noted that Abigail was yet to emerge from the heap of concrete she had been knocked into by those two special soldiers. Understanding the amount of resilience his bodyguards possessed, William knew something was definitely wrong. That specific situation reeked of some sort of foul play.William was right.Bashan Khan’s special had not won the battle against the McArthur bodyguards by playing fair at all. Even though they were able to have
The fight between William and Bashan Khan commenced. Understanding the kind of fighting style his opponent was heavily proficient in, William was aware that his best technique would be Muay Thai. As the two engaged each other in hand-to-hand combat, the fight became very interesting to watch. Despite both having a similar build of the professional swimmer type, it had to be noted that Bashan Khan is older by age than William. The Arabian young lord was trained in the arts of brutal fighting, while William had toughened his exterior by sparring daily with Abigail and the McArthur bodyguards. Bashan Khan’s strikes are delivered with brutal strength, aiming for all fatal points on William’s body. Unfortunately for him, this was William’s strategy as well, except he’s being more evasive and cautious with his strikes. Bashan Khan scoffed as he kept trying to get an impactful hit on William. “Stop being evasive and face me like a man, you coward!”While his opponent was speaking, Will
On the other side, this was it for Bashan Khan. He found a vulnerable spot in William’s defense, and it was his heart, specifically his emotional state in relation to romantic love.It had to be recalled to attention that despite William’s intellect, among his many gifts, he was still pretty much a ‘naïve child when it came to matters of the heart. Apart from Ayra Brown and Camilla Parker, he had never truly fallen for any other person. This is why he tends to be a bit slow when it came down to handling his emotions in this department. Unfortunately for him though, this wasn’t the case for Bashan Khan, who had now found a way to obtain victory against this surprisingly formidable orphan.“Why are you acting surprised over this? Didn’t my fiancee tell you everything?” Bashan Khan began speaking with a condescending tone. “Guess you two aren’t as close as you make it out to be. Listen up! Camilla Parker sold herself to me in exchange for her family’s business empire to be granted unl
Once Bashan Khan saw this hateful glare, the sickening pleasure coursing through him quickly turned sour. Despite his inevitably end towards defeat, there was an ominous message behind William’s angry stare directed at him. For some reason, he could feel some sort of heart-wrenching threat from this guy, and he didn’t like it one bit. It was like William was silently conveying to him that, even if he lost this battle, he was far from being done with Bashan Khan. What made Bashan Khan’s heart shake slightly was the depth of confidence behind this silent message William conveyed. It was as if William was certain that he would bounce back later and take revenge on Bashan Khan.The more Bashan Khan stared at the hateful glare William was directing up at him, the more he was now finding himself infuriated. There was something enigmatic about William, and for some reason, it was making his sixth sense go off. He did not like this young man one bit. To him, it was even more telling of his
