"Huh?" Arnold froze hearing Eric's voice, but it was too late, Eric had already disarmed him and grabbed Evelyn."Bang! Bang!"Gunshots sounded as Diego and Ramon fired simultaneously at Eric, but it was too late, the latter had already ducked and hid behind the sofa they were sitting on.Soon, the gunshots coming from outside increased and it became non-stop, indicating that the fight outside had already begun.Evelyn's heart pounded against her chest as though it wanted to burst out. Her breathing was uneven as she could smell Eric's manly aura.Eric held her tightly as she could feel her chest pressing tightly onto his chest, this was the first time she had been this close to a man who was not her father.Though she knew she was not supposed to think about something like that, she couldn't help it, her heart was racing as she looked at Eric who had a serious expression.From his expression, it showed he didn't even notice anything. For a moment, she couldn't help but feel that Eri
The sounds of gunshots increased as Eric and Evelyn stepped out of the basement showing that the fight was still going on.It was somewhat heated as they could hear the shouts of the men telling themselves to take cover."Are you sure they are going to listen to us?" Evelyn asked as they walked towards where the gunshots were going."We'll just use their bodies as shields if they refuse to listen to us." Eric shrugged as he continued to drag the two men as though he was dragging a piece of trash."Brace yourself." Eric continued as they got closer to the shooting range."Stop!" Eric roared just as he got to the door.Immediately the shootings stopped as everyone turned to the door looking at Eric who walked out of the house with Diego and Ramon.Following behind him was Evelyn who had her gun pointed at both men ready to shoot."As you can see, I've captured your leader." Eric continued as he looked at the men in masks.There were about twenty with about five bodies on the floor. On t
Eric sighed as he alighted from the taxi at the front of the company. Looking at his phone, he knew he was over late as the time had exceeded for about an hour.Well, it was not his fault, the place they went was on the outskirts of the city, so he wasn't able to find a taxi easily which was why that had happened. Walking into the company's gate, he looked around, seeing that he couldn't see Chole, he couldn't help but heave in a sigh of relief.Greeting the security men, he walked to the garage with a smile on his face. Seems like he was quite lucky this time, Chole was planning to work overtime, so she wouldn't know that he was late.Getting to the garage, he walked to the car and quickly opened it wanting to drive to where he usually waited for Chole."So what time were you planning to pick me up?" A cold voice sounded just as Eric was about to start the car."Arrrghhh!" Eric screamed and immediately turned around wanting to attack the figure, but stopped midway seeing it was Cho
"Do you want more helpings?" Mary smiled as she looked at Eric."Sure," Eric replied, his mouth full of food."Besides, who wouldn't want to eat such delicious food? They must be delusional if they don't want more of it." Eric continued."It's alright dear, don't talk while eating, you might choke." Mary smiled as she helping Eric fetch more food for Eric's plate."Aren't you two done yet?" Chole's cold voice came as she rolled her eyes at Eric."Young miss, you should have something before you go," Mary smiled as she looked at Chole with a smile."No Aunt Mary, I'm not hungry, I'll eat at the company cafeteria later in the morning." Chole declined."Chole, you should eat, it's delicious." Eric encouraged me."I wouldn't miss a meal even if it means coming home every day. My life would be complete." Eric sighed, his tone containing a hint of regret."Just shut the hell up and eat what you'll eat, I don't wanna get late because of you." Chole snapped as she rolled her eyes at Eric.She
"President, it's almost time, they should be here soon," Natalie said as she arranged the documents while placing them carefully on the table.In a flash, thirty minutes passed, but still, there was no one. The expression on Chole's and Natalie's faces was filled with anger as they kept checking their time.Eric on the other hand doesn't seemed to be bothered with what was happening and kept drinking his coffee. God knew how many cups of coffee he had already as each time it finished, he'd call the waiter and make them refill it.Eric kept sipping the cup of offee in his front as he observed the room, all other things were none of his business. Whatever Chole and Natalie wanted to discuss with their clients, it was not his business and he was not interested in knowing."Aren't you going to stop taking the coffee?" Natalie snapped, breaking the silence."And why should I?" Eric frowned, raising his brows as he looked at Natalie in confusion."Aren't coffee meant to be taken or would yo
"Who the heck do you think you are?" The man Eric kicked stood up almost immediately and yelled."Didn't I tell you I'll send you to Hades if I hear one more word from you?" Eric squinted his brows as he looked at the man while walking slowly towards him."I..." The man stuttered seeing Eric walking towards him."I've already warned you, and since it seemed as though you're ready to go meet Hades, I'll gladly send you to him." Eric grinned squatting in front of the man."What the heck do you think you're doing?" Lorenz frowned as he spoke up."Shhhh!" Eric said, placing a finger on his lips."Don't interrupt me when I'm about to teach someone a lesson. If you're eager, I'll get to you soon, since you're the instigator.""How dare you!" Lorenz flew into a rage as he looked at Eric."Didn't I tell you not to disturb me, or do you want to go meet Hades faster?" Eric's eyes flashed with a glint as he turned around."Hehehehe!" Lorenz laughed as he looked at Eric."Who the heck do you thin
"Auntie, I'd love to eat, but I'm in a hurry." Eric smiled bitterly as he looked at Mary."It's fine Eric, I'll just pack it up for you since you're in a hurry." Mary smiled as she walked into the kitchen."Here." Mary smiled as she gave the takeout she just packed to Eric."Thanks, auntie, I'll make sure to eat it here next time," Eric said as he walked out of the Villa in a hurry while holding the takeaway."Shit, what a hassle not to own a car?" Eric grunted as he looked around for a taxi."Or should he go back and request that Chole borrow me a car?" He mumbled under his breath.But then knowing Chole well, she wasn't going to borrow him and was going to believe that he was going to pick girls up which was why he needed a car.After thinking about it, he abandoned the thought and flagged down a taxi."Take me to The Drunken Sailor," Eric said to the driver just as he got into the cab."Huh?" The driver froze upon hearing what Eric said."I'm sorry but...""Don't worry, take this."
"Huh?" The men and Lorenz froze seeing Eric walk into the room with a smile on his face."And who the heck are you?" One of the men growled as he looked at Eric."Are you fucking blind, or did something go through your brain making it unable to function?" Eric mouthed a series of curses."Can't you see that I'm the person inside the picture who you want to kill and feed his body to the dogs?" Eric continued with a slight chuckle."So it's you." The man sneered and immediately relaxed as he looked at Eric."What the heck are you doing here?" Lorenz sneered as he looked at Eric."I was walking by and I overheard you discussing your plan, so I decided to go buy a drink so that we could celebrate it," Eric Shrugged as he walked towards the table and opened the Vodka in his hand pouring it into the cups."Don't think that I've laced it, you can see that I just opened it now." Eric continued as he took his share."Aren't you going to celebrate with me?" Eric frowned as he raised his brows s
