William had passed out as the beatings he was bombarded with got too much for his body to bear. Following this, he kept zoning in and out of consciousness.In between these hazy moments, he had seen a bunch of people rushing into the condo, and then a pair of strong arms had lifted his body. The next moment, he found himself looking up at the ceiling of an ambulance as he was receiving emergency treatments.The last moment wasn’t as blurry as the earlier ones; or rather, it could be summed up as a dream.He had opened his eyes and saw a woman, who was seated at the edge of his medical bed, looking down at him with the most loving eyes. He quickly recognized this woman as Sarah McArthur, his dead mother. His body had lurched up from his lying position and he had desperately reached out to the woman, only to find her slowly fading away. Until the last moments of her disappearance, she had that charming smile and the heart-filling warmth in her eyes.In reality, the nurses in the ambula
“Yes, Young Master.” Abigail stood at attention. “When I got to Mr. Andre’s condo, I found you and him unconscious, along with the seven bodyguards.”William suddenly interrupted. “How are they? All seven of them, did they survive?”Abigail quickly nodded in response. “Although they sustained heavy injuries and a huge blood loss, they survived. They have been transported back to the McArthur Estate where they will remain during their period of proper recuperation. After that, the patriarch will determine if they are….fit to return to duty.”William furrowed his brows as he picked up on Abigail’s careful use of words right there. He deduced that the so-called ‘will determine if they are fit to return to duty’ might be more dangerous for the special bodyguards than he’s led to believe. He remained quiet though, as he listened to his head of bodyguard’s report."The interior of the condominium was left in ruins when I arrived there." Abigail hesitated for a brief moment. "Young Master, I
Mike cleared his throat as he stood behind the seated McArthur patriarch. “Young Master William, you shouldn’t worry about this. If you’re concerned about the decreased number of your bodyguards, I’m already putting together a much better team to replace the previous ones. I can have them transported over to you in a matter of days.”William clenched his fist. “With all due respect, Head Butler Mike, please, don’t talk about my bodyguards like they’re some robot that can just be disposed of whenever you want.”Mike glanced away from William's face. "I didn't mean for it to sound offensive, Young Master. It's just that these seven bodyguards have failed to do the one thing they were supposed to do best." He sighed with a slight shake of his head. "Young Master William, I need you to understand that you, as the heir, are the most important factor in keeping the McArthur legacy alive, and those bodyguards had failed to protect you.""With the attack Woodruff dealt you, he could have kil
When Abigail revealed that William's house had now been completed, it was amazing news that came at the perfect time. Andre had been simultaneously shocked and confused when he heard the word 'mansion' instead of 'apartment'. He decided to only ask William about it after he had seen their new dorm with his own eyes.Within their next few days of recuperation at Giantic Hospital, William had gotten much better, thanks to Dr. Nina's meticulous treatments. William sent one of his bodyguards to pack up Andre's belongings from the condominium. There was nothing of his there as Woodruff had either burnt or smashed every single thing of his, except for his expensive phone, of course. Even when he was getting beat up by the Camillo bodyguards, the phone remained unscathed as the screen was made of pure diamond while the back was made of gold.bWith things in place, Dr. Nina took a final check on William's health status before finally discharging him from the hospital. Outside the huge health
Right before the two young men's eyes, three vehicles zoomed towards them, smoothly slowing down to a stop as they got closer to them. The most astonishing aspect about these three cars is the fact that the ones on the right and left edges are Lamborghinis while the one in the middle is a beautiful Bugatti La Voiture Noire; these three cars looked exactly like the very ones William had lost because of Woodruff, except they looked newer.William smiled at Andre. “Buddy, welcome to my estate.” He pulled his best friend into a side hug. “It is also known as our new dorm.”Andre's eyes widened as he was in awe and shock. He speculated that this was the case the minute he laid eyes on the luxurious surroundings, but he refused to believe it until he was sure. "William, this place is just as big as my parents' estate." An exhilarated smile spread across his face as he thought of the kind of life he would be living once he settled here.William noticed Andre's expression turn to worry thoug
Once Andre and William entered the large and exquisite mansion, they were given a thorough tour of the house by Abigail. They were then introduced to the cleaners, chefs, and housekeepers who had been hired to maintain the beauty of the mansion.After this, William and Ander are taken to their respective bedrooms. William, of course, would be sleeping in the one and only master bedroom while Andre is given one of the thirty other bedrooms in the mansion.Hours later, Andre had settled nicely in his bedroom, thanks to the aid from the housekeepers. He then visited William's bedroom to find that his best friend wasn't there. Tempted to peek around, he is shocked once again when he enters the mansion owner's walk-in closet and sees that it is filled with extremely expensive clothes and pieces of jewelry. He recognized a lot of these items and he estimated that the entire wardrobe set was no less expensive than what William had been wearing.At this point, Andre couldn't help but sit dow
William got out of the black jeep and he was protectively surrounded on all sides by his masked bodyguards.On the other side, the men and women also had their faces covered with simpler masks. They walked towards William with firearms in their grasp. In the center, there was a slim-built man they were also protecting.The two sides walked towards each other and there was a moment of tense silence before the slim masked man spoke. "You're finally here.""Of course," William answered with a neutral tone in his voice. "How could I miss out on an opportunity to work with the infamous Plug Gang in the fields? I hope you guys won't disappoint me tonight."William had reached out to the plug gang to partake in this mission. Since he knew about them during the purchase of The Sand Club, he decided to employ their on-field capabilities. Though William reached out to them anonymously, and thus, the plug gang had no idea that this new contractor of theirs was the same young man who had bought
In the dead of the night, various women and men in uniforms were shot in the neck, which led to a brief convulsion before they passed out.Back at the edge of the forest, Abigail and a man from the gang held binoculars over their eyes as they counted the wins on both sides. To avoid any chance of cheating, Abigail had been put in charge of the eight shooters on the gang team while the man from the gang was to keep scores over the three shooters on William's side.Abigail kept watchful eyes on the targets that successfully got hit by the gang shooters. “3! 6! 15!........18!”Meanwhile, the man from the gang was doing the same. “2! 8!.....12!....21!”“What?!” The slim man was shocked as he stared in shock at William and those three shooters on his side. “How’s that possible?”William ignored him as he was facing the walls of the Camillo estate, seemingly lost in thought.It took a total of fifteen minutes before both sides finally stopped shooting and everyone awaited the results.The
