"What do you want exactly?" The question came out of Richard's mouth after Aarav turned on the lights in this small room. The light was dim. Very slowly, Aarav walked over to Richard who was tied to the only shabby chair here. His gaze was sharp, deliberately showing that he wasn't in the mood to play around. Moments ago, Benzala's guards had defeated Richard's guards. In the middle of the fight Richard escaped with two of his bodyguards. But luckily Aarav, Benzala, and Marcolin were able to chase Richard's car to catch him. "If I tell you what I want, can you give me that?" asked Aarav, stopping walking exactly three steps in front of Richard. Richard's sharp eyes watched Aarav. His face was upturned because of the height distance between them. Richard showed that he did not want to surrender to Aarav, despite the bruises on his face. It was his fight with Aarav before being caught and brought to this room that made his face look like that. Richard laughed wryly while scowling
Aarav felt the thrill of being challenged after hearing Richard say that his method of interrogation was trivial. Actually, Aarav wanted to come up with a method that would make Richard submit instantly. It was just that he didn't want to be too hasty and intended to create an atmosphere that Richard was afraid of. He wanted Richard to know who he was dealing with. Aarav was not someone to be trifled with. That was what he wanted to emphasize to Richard. "Do you want me to use another method?" asked Aarav as his body position straightened. Aarav then stretched the tie on his shirt while smiling a grin. "Do you really want me to make you submit?" Richard looked at Aarav still through a trivial gaze. What Aarav had said earlier did not make him feel intimidated at all. Although the four printed photos that Aarav had shown earlier had made Richard somewhat worried. "I'm used to facing more threats than what you're doing now," Richard said later. "If you knew what I've faced, you wou
Navy Pier 32. Aarav and Benzala's car stopped right by the parked container trucks. The view of the harbor was eerily quiet at half past twelve this evening greeting Aarav, Marcolin, and Benzala. There was no crowd in sight so Aarav searched for the whereabouts of the people Richard was referring to. "Where are they going to do the transaction?" Aarav asked Marcolin as he looked around. Marcolin, who was holding the steering wheel of the car, also lowered his head to look for details. "I don't think they would do a transaction in an easily accessible area like this," Marcolin said in response to Aarav's question. On the other hand, Marcolin was very sure that the transaction was carried out not far from where he was. Aarav activated the earpiece connection in his ear after being unable to connect with Benzala. Benzala's car was already beside his, but Aarav didn't want them to get off just yet. "Benzala, have you seen my bodyguard who was here earlier?" Aarav asked Benzala as h

Aarav could not hold back any longer. The roar of several cars came from behind. It was faint at first, but gradually the roar of the cars became clearer. A beam of headlights emanated from behind Aarav, shining right at Yokizo and his guards. In front of Aarav, the arrival of the cars made Yokizo immediately stunned in disbelief. Gradually, the corners of his lips curved into a smirk mocking Aarav. Yokizo laughed while clapping his hands. "Oh my. No wonder I'm feeling awkward because you came out of nowhere!" Yokizo exclaimed in between laughing unexpectedly. Aarav still didn't move. He could still hear the continuous roar of the cars-from faint to clearer as they approached him. Actually, he didn't know how many cars were coming. It was because his focus at that time was to immediately take down Yokizo and his bodyguards. Aarav's brain worked to estimate all possibilities. If tonight's plan was successful, then he would be able to provoke those in power over Yokizo to appear. F
BUGH! PLAKK! PRAANGG!Aarav straightened up with a gasp after he had thrown a fist. In front of Aarav, one of Yukizo's guards had lost his balance. His body staggered back a few steps while holding the corner of his lips-the area that had been hit by Aarav's powerful punch. There was a loud crack after his body hit the wall of the container truck. "You bastard, you shouldn't be part of Yokizo," Aarav cursed at Yokizo's bodyguard. His gaze was intense and could not hide his annoyance. Feeling the anger lingering in his chest, Aarav ran straight into the Yokizo bodyguard. In just a fraction of a second, Aarav's multiple kicks were able to make Yokizo's bodyguard unable to resist. The Yokizo bodyguard gradually relaxed until his body collapsed. Before Aarav could get ready, suddenly from the side, someone kicked him hard in the waist.Aarav jerked back a few steps. He was not ready for the kick. After seeing who kicked him, Aarav finally gritted his teeth and approached with quick s

"Aarav? What are you doing here?" Robert's question came out when the man witnessed Aarav's arrival in the prisoner's room. Robert sat in front of Aarav after pulling out a chair, then put on a curious face. For a few seconds Aarav did not answer Robert's question. At that moment, Aarav just stood still and watched Robert intensely. Aarav instantly imagined how Robert would react if he told him what he was saying now. "What's wrong?" Robert asked once again. Instantly, his face turned into a look of concern. "Why do I feel uncomfortable seeing you like this?" Aarav took a deep breath, then let it out. For some reason, Aarav was hesitant to tell Robert. "Do you know the news about Richard?" asked Aarav in a low voice, secretly guessing how Robert would react. Robert shook his head. "No, I didn't. How would I know?" "No warden told you? Or... you never overheard the conversation?" Aarav watched Robert seriously. On the other hand, Robert, who was embarrassed by Aarav's reaction
