“Pick it and hear what it says.” Eric chuckled, glancing at them.“And why do we have to follow what you say?” The old man frowned, staring at Eric.“Well that's your decision, I'm not forcing you to take the call. It's all your choice, either you pick the call or you just leave it and allow it to ring, which I'm sure you don't dare to.” Eric laughed.“Fine.” The old man gritted his teeth looking at Eric and then picked the call.“Old man, how dare you involve the Wallace family in our deal?” An angry voice came from the other end of the phone.“Didn't I warn you to keep everything secret as much as you can? Yet, you still let that useless granddaughter of yours babble around and spill the beans to that bitch from the Wallace family.”“From today henceforth, you can consider all the activities between the Coleman's family and our Adam's family has ended. Don't even think about trying to come to me, or else I'll make my men break those useless bones in your body.” The voice from the ot
"Michael, do you know where Denver is?" Eric's voice rang through the phone."Yes, sir. I'll send you his address right away," Michael replied with efficiency."Alright, thanks. I'll be waiting," Eric acknowledged before ending the call.He had called Micheal just as he walked outside the house. He was sure that Micheal was going to know where Denver was and even if he didn't know, he was going to track him.It was not something hard to do, with his knowledge, he could do it in less than thirty minutes, so he was not too worried.But much to his luck, Micheal knew where Denver was and now, he was heading there.Soon, a text message lit up Alex's phone. Glancing at the address, Alex couldn't help but chuckle before slipping into his car.Thankfully, Denver's location was conveniently close to Brookside, just a thirty-minute drive away.Eric was certain Denver hadn't taken his promise to meet seriously when he hung up. But Eric wasn't bluffing; he fully intended to follow through. Howev
"Eric, you're back." Natalie said in shock looking at Eric, then at the person standing beside him.Seeing him, her expression changed and it was as though she should go forward and beat him up. She wouldn't be in all these if it was not for this bastard.Though Eric had helped settle it, there were still other issues on the floor and she wanted to settle it, but there was no way she would be able to settle.Eric was not going to admit it and even her parents wouldn't believe her."So Denver, Let's get started." Eric chuckled, ignoring Natalie's anger and turned to look at Denver who was staring at Chloe with a frown.He had gone to Old man Simon and then told him to follow him to the Addams family house.On the way, he had told the old man to help him convince the head of Adam's family that he and Denver were friends and that he wanted to take him out.When they got out, Eric activated his Verbal cannon and also his hypnosis, making the old man of Adam believe what Eric had said.The
"I'm very sorry Chloe, I'm sorry I called you a bitch. I'm the bitch not you." Denver apologized quickly, knowing well that things were not going to end well if he didn't apologize."And her too" Eric's evil voice came and he couldn't help but shiver."I'm sorry Natalie for all the trouble I have caused you. I swear in my life, never would I try it again in my life," Denver faced Natalie and apologized."And them too." Eric said, as he wasn't ready to let him off."I'm very much sorry for putting you in tension over my unreasonable demands. Never in my life would I do something like that." Denver grittred his teeth as he apologized to Natalie's father and mother."It's fine, we didn't hold it against you." Bradford said with a smile and then turned to look at Eric with a look of gratitude in his eyes.If not for this young man, who knew what his wife's father would have done with his daughter.Eric was a good and capable person that he couldn't wait to get his daughter married to as
(The Next Day)"Brother, don't come late like you did yesterday," Emily whined as she looked at Eric."Alright, I won't," Eric agreed with a sigh.Yesterday had been kind of hectic. After he left Natalie's place, he took Chloe back to the company and then headed to old man Simon's place.There, the old man had made him tell him all he had done to Denver.Though he told the old man, there were still things he hid, and it was not a surprise that he hid them.After that, he and the old man talked about what was going on in the company, and then still forced him to eat.He had eaten to his fill at Natalie's place, and the old man still forced him to eat even after he tried to explain to him that he had already eaten.After that, he had picked up his sister late, who was then angry that he had picked her up late, so he had to treat her to a meal.There she greedily ordered what she could not finish, and in the end, she had pushed it to his front and asked him to eat it.At first, he wanted
Chloe?" Eric muttered, looking at the call with a frown on his face, wondering why Chloe was calling him at such a time.Usually, anything she had, she would wait until he came to pick up Emily, or she would have already told him right before the start, but now, she was calling him.Also, he had just left the company a few hours ago; she could have just called his attention, but she didn't.Eric frowned, looking at the call, contemplating if he should pick up the call or not as he was feeling sleepy.But since it was rare for Chloe to call him just randomly, he knew that something had happened, so after a while, he decided to pick up the call."Eric, can you come over right now?" Chloe's voice came from the other end of the phone."What's wrong?" Eric asked, his expression changing as a cold aura burst out of him.He could hear Chloe's shivering voice, meaning that she was scared and whatever had happened was huge, which had made her call him."Please... Just come over," Chloe stutter
"Sister, what happened to you?" Eric forced a smile, trying not to sound cold as he looked at Emily, who was lying on the bed in the infirmary with bandages on her arms and legs, signifying they were broken. There were also bruises on her body, indicating she had suffered quite a lot of injuries.Emily had been severely injured to such an extent that there would have been complications had the doctors not arrives on time which was all thanks to Chloe's connection cause she to invite the doctor here, so they treated Emily just in time. But nevertheless, Emily shivered as she felt a cold chill running down her spine.Though her brother was smiling, the look in his eyes was akin to that of a beast about to go crazy after witnessing someone take its cub.The next thing she was going to say was going to determine what Eric's actions would be. It was either he went into a rampage, or he calmed down.Emily wanted to lie, but she couldn't help it as each time she was about to say something,
"So, would you mind telling me what happened?" Eric asked calmly while unwrapping the bandages around Emily's legs."Brother, you're not going to get angry, are you?" Emily asked, looking at Eric who was unwrapping her bandage with a smile."Why should I get angry?" Eric laughed."Jake has already started looking into it, so there's no need for me to worry anymore; he'll take care of it," Eric continued, looking at Emily who was sitting on the sofa while he sat on a stool, her legs on his legs. On the table beside him were needles and a boiling herb he had prepared. Before getting home, Eric stopped at a place and got all these."So you should absolutely tell me, I just want to know, nothing else," Eric continued as he finished unwrapping the bandage on Emily's leg.Emily couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She was now relieved knowing that Eric was not annoyed anymore. Seemed like not telling him anything earlier was the best. If she had told him, then she didn't know what he
