"I thought you'd chicken out, hooligan." Evelyn's cold voice came just as Eric was wondering how he should escape.
"Why would I chicken out when I have a beauty like you accompanying me? I'd rather court death than miss the chance to spend time with you." Eric grinned as he walked towards Evelyn."You'd better stop saying nonsense!" Evelyn glared at him as her face turned red in embarrassment."Chief, why are we taking him along, he'll just be a distraction?" One of the police officers, a tall muscular man, frowned as he looked at Eric with disdain."None of your business." Evelyn sneered and got into the van alongside the others.Soon, the van arrived at the outskirts of the city after about a 30 minute drive. Soon, an uncompleted building came into view and the Van parked a few distance away from the building.Getting down from the Van, Evelyn and the other police officers move stealthy toward the building, according to their sources, the drug transaction should have begun.Only Eric strolled towards the building, ignoring all the absurd gazes of the others. With his powerful intuition which came alongside the constitution, he could tell that something was wrong, thus he didn't bother.Soon they got to the entrance of the building, currently, there were only about fifteen police officers, adding Evelyn to the fray, and then with Eric, they were sixteen.All the others brought out their guns and cocked them as they stood at the entrance in vigilance."Hehehe, there's no need to be so hostile when visiting someone else's house." A loud chortle came from within and immediately, about twenty armed men rushed out of nowhere and pointed their guns at the police officers.Evelyn's expression changed upon seeing this and immediately, she knew that they had been busted. But there was nothing she could do about it, there was no way they could fight their way out."Slowly, she put down her gun, and the other police officer followed suit and raised their hands putting it behind their head."Brothers, escort our guest in." The voice came again and immediately the door of the building opened.Evelyn and the others walked into the uncompleted building slowly and looked around.Inside the building was a chair, and a table. One was seated by an average-looking man. Beside him were two other people who had their guns cocked and pointed at Evelyn and the others."Evelyn, I didn't expect you to be so eager to catch me." The man grinned as he looked at Evelyn."You wouldn't get away with this!" Evelyn gritted her teeth as she said stubbornly."Nope, it's not that way. It should be the other way around. You wouldn't be getting out of here instead." The man grinned."You see you've been a hindrance to my business, so there's no need to keep someone like you alive." The man shook his head as he said slowly."First, I'll kill your colleagues, then I'll let my men play with you for seven days and nights.""I'll let you enjoy what's called absolute pleasure." The man grinned evily as he looked at Evelyn."You don't have to do this. You can kill me, but you should let the others go." Evelyn said with gritted teeth."Nope, that's not the rule here." The man shook his head."Hey, read out the rules." The man turned to one of his men and commanded."Rule five section one, states that: Anyone who crosses the boundary of the gang who is not a member or comes for trade wouldn't be allowed to leave unless he joins the gang. And in the case where the other party is unwilling, he'll go meet Hades in the underworld."The man read out almost immediately."You see, I'm not the one who made the rules, that's how it is. So in your case, you all have to meet Hades tonight." The man smiled.Evelyn gritted her teeth upon hearing this. She knew that there was no way she would be able to escape. At the moment, she could only regret bringing these policemen with her and the Hooligan who had a glib tongue with her.None of them deserved to die and even if she was killed a hundred times, it wouldn't justify the fact that they had been killed because of her.But then, she couldn't understand how he had known that she was coming. The police operation had always been top secret."How did you know that we were coming?" Evelyn gritted her teeth as she asked."Isn't it obvious, there's a mole in the police?" Eric Shrugged as he spoke up."Very good boy, you're correct." The man froze for a moment, then he laughed and said.Evelyn felt a jolt pass through her body hearing what Eric said. She couldn't believe the fact that there was a mole in the police force."And can you tell us who the mole is?" The man grinned as he turned to look at Eric."Is it that important?" Eric furrowed his brows as he looked at the man."If you're correct, I might let you go." The man chuckled."Fine, that's the mole." Eric turned around and pointed at the tall muscular policeman who had tried to stop Evelyn from bringing him.He had already known about this since they were surrounded. While the others displayed an expression of fear, he looked fearless and even though he tried to hide it, it couldn't escape Eric's sharp eyes."How dare you accuse him of being a mole, do you even know what you're saying?" Evelyn flew into a rage as she scolded Eric."You don't need to scold him. He's indeed right, he's the one who sold you all for a million dollars." The man chuckled as he pointed at the policeman Eric just pointed at.Evelyn froze as she turned around to look at the policeman. Much to her shock, he had no look for regret, or fear in his eyes."Why... did you do it?" Evelyn's body trembled in anger as she looked at him."Why shouldn't I do it? Would this lousy Police job let me buy a house, or make me rich?" The man sneered."Besides, you've always stolen the limelight and been putting us all in your shadows, do you think I want to remain in the shadows all my life?""Just because you're a little bit more capable than us, that doesn't mean you get to order around as though we are your slaves.""Let me tell you, I've already received the money so all of you must die here."Evelyn's mind shattered as she looked at the man, at the moment, he had a crazed smile on his face as he looked at Evelyn and the others as though they were dead meat."Beauty, what are you willing to offer me if I help you capture that man." Eric suddenly spoke turning to Evelyn as he pointed at the man sitting on the chair.Huh?Evelyn froze upon hearing Eric's words. What the hell did he think he was saying? There was no way they could escape from this."Beauty, seemed as though you looked down on me," Eric raised his brows, his voice bringing Evelyn out of her thoughts."And how do you want to do it?" Evelyn managed to suppress her anger as she looked at Eric."Just tell me, what you'll give me in return." Eric grinned, staring right into Evelyn's eyes."Can't you just help us, considering the situation we are in?" Evelyn gritted her teeth as she said in annoyance."Well, you should know there's nothing like a free lunch. Besides, wouldn't I be dumb if I don't take this opportunity to get closer to my wife, who's constantly seeking to murder her husband?"Eric laughed as he looked at Evelyn snugly."You!" Evelyn gritted her teeth in anger, her chest heaving up and down, as a result, the two huge mountains on her chest looked rather unstable."You should probably calm down, those two mountains are proba
"And me what?" The drug lord asked, looking at Eric with a smile on his face, wanting to see how this Young man in front of him was going to get himself and the others from the situation they were in."Well, how should I start?" Eric muttered slightly looking at the man."Oh yeah, I have an idea!" Eric smiled as he started."And I'd love to listen." The drug lord nodded in reply."How about we join forces?" Eric asked with a raised eyebrow."Huh?" Everyone froze upon hearing Eric's statement."What do you mean?" The drug lord frowned as he asked, looking at Eric with a smile on his face."You see in the first place, I was never a police officer, nor do I intend to help them." Eric shrugged."You see, if both of us work together, we can create a new world. A world where you don't have to be hunted by the police."Evelyn frowned hearing Eric's words, though she didn't know what the latter was trying to do, she still decided to trust him. After all, he was their only hope."Isn't power w
"Huh?"Evelyn froze looking at the drug lord who had surrendered himself, there was even a crazed look on his face."What are you waiting for, aren't you going to round up your criminals?" Eric's voice came just at the moment bringing Evelyn out of her thoughts."I'll kill him if you move." At that moment, a voice came stopping everyone in their tracks.The police officer who happened to be the mole had already taken one of the other police officers hostage and was now pointing a gun at his head."What do you think you're doing?" The drug lord flew into a rage."You're standing in the way of my honor.""Quickly release him, or else I won't let you live." The drug lord growled as he looked at the police officer angrily."Fucking shut up, don't you know that you've been deceived by that trash? If you're captured now, do you think you'll be able to escape?" The police officer sneered."Of course, I'll be able to escape. Who do you think I am?" The drug lord replied proudly."Fuck it," Th
"System, open up the reward," Eric muttered in his heart as he walked along the roadside.[Rewards: five thousand points, Twenty Million dollars eighty percent shares of Wangjin Dock and Cisco technological company]Eric's mouth curled up into a smile seeing the generous rewards the system had given him. Wangjin Dock was one of the largest seaports in the city and now, he owned eighty percent of its shares.But what the hell was with the Cisco technological company? Bringing out his phone, Eric searched for the company and soon, his face scrunched up."System, why didn't you just give me other companies?" Eric couldn't help but grumble.Cisco's technological company was declining rapidly, it would be a tiring job if he wanted to make it rise to the top again. This was because the last product which they Launched had a bug in it and they failed to recognize it in time, as a result, causing a lot of casualties."The system doesn't want the host to be useless and idle all day long. Besid
Immediately, the car shook violently causing the fire that was approaching the car to slowly increase as more gas leaked out of the tank.Eric frowned seeing this, if he didn't act, he and the woman would be caught up in the explosion and no one would survive."Young man, don't be so stubborn, there's nothing you can do, leave quickly!" The onlookers yelled at Eric as the fire got closer to the car."Hey, leave, now." The woman inside the car also yelled at Eric as a swell of gratitude welled up in her heart.She was supposed to die anyway in the first place, she didn't want this young man to be caught up in it. He didn't deserve to die and was only trying to save her.Eric ignored the lady, took in a deep breath, held the door once again, and pulled violently.Bang!Without a loud bang, the door came out and was now in Eric's hands, but at the same time, this had caused the fire to increase and it was already just a little space away from the tank where the gas was leaking.As long a
Eric's mouth twitched violently hearing the system's voice, what the hell was this dog of a system thinking? Issuing a mission at a time like this.He could almost swear that if the system had a physical body, he would draw it out and give it a good beating."The system is just trying to help the host. The system is afraid that the host will die of high blood pressure if he continues to be single and most importantly a Virgin, so hurry up and start with the mission, or else that pea-sized brain of yours will rot due to excessive masturbation." The System's complacent voice came just as Eric was lost in his thoughts."Fuck you." Eric couldn't help but curse inwardly,"Just come out here, I promise I won't beat you to death." Eric continued in his mind."With that chicken's strength of yours? I'm afraid you'll immediately kowtow to me and call me grandfather if I come out to you." The system taunted."Fuck you." Eric cursed angrily and proceeded to curse the system's generation."Host,
After paying the driver, the man drove away. Eric sighed looking at the huge building in his front. It was truly a large company, what a pity that it was declining rapidly."President, here you are." A surprised voice came just as Eric was about to walk toward the gate."And you are?" Eric frowned as he looked at the middle-aged man."I'm Micheal Collins, the president of Cisco technological company." The man smiled as he bowed lightly to Eric.He was quite shocked in his heart seeing Eric in person, some minutes ago, he had been informed that the company had been bought off, and Eric's picture was then sent to him.He had informed the higher-ups of the company who needed to know about it. He had just come out to get some things, but then he didn't expect to run into Eric.The company was declining rapidly and in no time, they were going to fold up. He had thought that it was a rich second generation who had bought off the company after seeing Eric's picture, but then he couldn't help
Michael immediately rushed forward wanting to see what was happening. Looking at the lines of code on the screen, his expression changed and immediately he sat down as the particular employee evacuated his seat.The next moment, Michael's bearing changed as he typed away furiously on the system. His speed of typing was times faster than that of the employees and also he looked serious.Everyone observed seriously hoping that Micheal could resolve the problem, if those attackers were able to breach the database of the company, then the company was doomed.Eric watched with interest as Micheal typed away on the system, he could understand what he was doing, but soon, his expression changed, and then he frowned, then he shook his head.Though Eric's actions were subtle, they were still seen by the employees, and immediately they all flew into a rage. Why the hell was Eric shaking his head? Did he think that the president's skills were mediocre?After a while, Eric's expression changed on
"We've arrived at the estate." The driver said, breaking the silence in the car after a long while."Good." Eric stretched and opened the car door, alighting from the car."Sir, here's your money." Eric gave the man one of the notes that had been exchanged at the airport."Young man, I don't think I have changed. Your money is only a hundred Draco, and yet you're giving me a five hundred Draco." He smiled bitterly."You should just accept it, I don't have another." Eric smiled bitterly and pushed the money into the man's hands then walked off even before he could say anything.Soon, the sound of the taxi leaving the Vicinity could be heard and Eric couldn't help but sigh in relief.Looking at his watch, he realized that there were just ten minutes left till seven.Though he was in an estate, he was not sure what could happen and thus could only thread carefully.He couldn't be too rash in his decision, also, he didn't know what the security of the place he was going to look like.Aft
"Shit!" Eric cursed angrily under his breath raising his hands to check the time on his watch only to see that it was almost seven.He had been trying to stop a taxi for the past thirty minutes, but it was all futile.All the taxis he flagged would stop at first, but then after hearing where he was going, they would decline.Though he felt that it was because the place was too far, he could tell that there was another reason.What was he going to do? With the weird rule of the country, he was going to have to step back into the hotel.He didn't want to spend the night and just wanted to get to what he wanted. Finish it up and then leave the country.Though he was not scared of breaking the rules of the country as he was confident in his strength, at the same time, he was not willing to be caught in the mess.After all, it was none of his problems. He wouldn't have known that such was happening if it was not for the idiot who called Sophia.Eric sighed and looked around. The street was
"Good morning sir." Michael's old voice came from the other end of the phone just as the call was connected."Good morning," Eric replied he was not used to formalities and thus just went straight to the point."What about the ticket, has it been bought?" Eric inquired."Yeah, I have bought it. Also, I happen to have a friend at the airport. I'll give him a call right now, and he will direct you on the rest." Micheal answered."Thanks for the trouble." Eric smiled and ended the call.Stepping hard on the accelerator, the car dashed forward heading toward the airport. He planned to go and come back that very day, though he was sure that was not possible, he was still going to go home.If they were to text him, he was going to lie to them. There was no need for them to worry.All he hoped was that what he was going to do was going to be successful, or else it was going to be quite a hassle if it wasn't.Soon, Eric arrived at the airport. Looking for a spot to park his car, Eric walked
(The Next Day)"Are you sure the head of the police would not be annoyed?" Charlotte asked as she turned to look at Eric with a slight frown on her face."Why should she get annoyed?" Eric shrugged, getting into the car.Everyone had already gone to work except for Aunt Mary who was always at home.For some unknown reason, Charlotte happened to sleep more than she was supposed to and thus woke up late.Eric wouldn't have woken up early if it was not for Emily who barged into the room and complained that he was to get a car for Emily.Chloe's workplace and Emily's workplace were quite a distance from each other.So because they didn't want to disturb Eric, Emily was the one taking them all to work.Natalie had a car, and Evelyn refused to take the car Chloe offered her.After all, it was Eric who had given it to her. So the lazy girl stormed to Eric's room that morning and demanded that he get Emily a car.As for Sophia, Eric's company was just right before they got to Chloe's company,
"You don't have to look so nervous, it's not as though I want to gobble you up." Eric chuckled, stepping into the house and glancing at Sophia, who seemed rather nervous, though she was trying her best to hide it."I'm not nervous." Sophia immediately denied it and walked back to the cushion, still struggling to hide her nervousness.She had been thinking about how to get Eric to notice her, she didn't know that he already did notice her and was coming already.Also, she didn't want the others to see Eric here; after all, what was a man with two girlfriends doing in the house of a single lady like her? That was going to arouse a lot of suspicion and she didn't want something like that."So you've been wanting to talk to me, what do you want to tell me?" Eric broke the silence and stared at Sophia who appeared to be lost in her thoughts."Well...." Sophia stuttered, not knowing what to say."I...." She continued to play with her fingers as she struggled to spill out the words.It was a
"What are you doing here?" Evelyn turned around, looking at Eric who had just walked into her room."Should I go back instead?" Eric asked, turning around to leave."I didn't say that, I was just asking what you wanted." Evelyn sighed, face palming not knowing what to do to Eric."What do husband and wife do together, alone and at night?" Eric grinned, walking towards Evelyn who was sitting on a chair with a lot of paperwork, intending to grope her from behind."I hope you remember that this room is soundproof right." Evelyn chuckled as she placed something on the table, which made Eric stop in his tracks."But this ain't fair." Eric sighed, feeling rather disgruntled."This world ain't fine baby." Evelyn grinned, turning around to look at Eric."So what do you want?" Evelyn asked, her voice finally turned serious as she looked at Eric."I know you have many questions, you can ask." Eric sighed and sat on the bed, staring at Evelyn who was now looking at him."Well...." Evelyn stutter
"Did you just say you were the target of an assassination?" Evelyn broke the silence as she asked, staring at Eric."Yeah, someone wanted my head back then. So I was almost assassinated when I went to Brooklyn." Eric replied, seemingly not noticing their expressions."Are you alright? Hope you were not injured?" Chole asked this time as she looked at Eric."You guys don't need to worry; it's been quite a while, even the incident, so there's no need to panic." Eric waved his hands and sat on the empty chair while pulling Charlotte to sit on the other chair.At the moment, there was no space on the dining table, and if anyone were to walk into the house, then they would have to wait till they finished eating."Aunt Mary, what do we have to eat tonight?" Eric changed the topic, looking at Aunt Mary who was now looking at him with a smile on her face.They had all kinda agreed in their hearts not to worry about Eric. He was a cultivator, after all, and they knew how powerful he was.They
"I never knew you were this rich!" Charlotte turned to look at Eric as he drove into the estate.Eric glanced at Charlotte and didn't say anything. He knew well that she was just being sarcastic, so there was no need to reply to her. If he did, he would just be looking for trouble.Also, he had been thinking of a way to convince Emily not to say too much because he knew she was the only one who was going to get inquisitive.The others were likely not to ask questions, but Emily was unbridled and was going to ask some questions.Driving into the garage, Eric parked the car and alighted alongside Charlotte. They had been stuck in traffic, or else they would have gotten home quite a long time."Why do you look so nervous, you look like you are trying to hide something?" Charlotte squinted her brows as she looked at Eric who was deep in thought as they walked into the house."It's nothing much, you don't have to worry." Eric shook his head, still wondering what he was going to say to Emil
"Humph!" Charlotte snorted coldly and turned away from Eric before getting out of the car.She knew that there was no need to talk to him again at this point, or else he was just going to continue to tease her. Though she was not angry at his actions, she was a little embarrassed.If this was to continue, he was not going to hesitate to tease her again, or else the only choice she had was to hurriedly alight from the car.Eric, on the other hand, had a smile on his face as he alighted from the car. Looking at the huge building in front, he couldn't help but shake his head.Just as he had expected, Lisa was a celebrity, and though he didn't know about her, where she would live was not a place where Ordinary people lived."Here you are, Eric." A pleasant voice came as a petite figure rushed out of the house.It was as though the figure had been waiting for Eric's arrival and had been keen on listening to the surroundings, so she was able to tell when Eric had arrived."Ma'am, you can't
