Suddenly the door to the door opened and a lady dressed in black walked in. She wore a black mask, a black shade, Blake boots and a Blake hand glove.Byron noticed her presence. She looked same age as Alex. About 23 or 24. “Enough acting all pitiful.” The lady tilted her head and walked close to Byron who didn't bother to turn back.“Your opinion, throw it in the trash can.” Byron said all loud and clear.How dare her walk in and say that to him. She doesn't even know who he was.Just then, the lady grabbed a rod at the back of the door and swung it in Byron's direction all of a sudden.He didn't look back. As if his subconscious kicked in, he moved his head a bit and dodged it. Then the rod passed the line of his right ear and fell on the floor.The lady stared at Byron in shock. He didn't turn back to see her throwing the rod how come he dodged it like his eyes were at the back of his head.“How did you do that?” “You don't need to know.” Byron said, his eyes still focused on the
After those words, the daggers moved towards Byron's both arms, making him unable to move the two hands.The ‘Killer lá’ was an attack that left the prey with nowhere to run to, plus, it was powerful to even kill the enemy especially when it's name or surname is being mentioned with it.The lady had this dark aura hovering around her. She was determined and his strength can never me a match for her!Byron yelled as his both hands started to glow with a familiar aura. He opened his palms and the daggers attacking hands fell into his palm at once. Then he threw the two daggers out the window.“No..” She stumbled back in disbelief.She gritted her teeth as she realized she was no match for this prey.“This isn't over, yet.” She opened the door and tried to storm out but Byron launched another attack.She wasn't able to run step outsidez though the door was now wide open. She was struck to the ground then her nose started bleeding.Byron calmly walked over to where she was and looked down
As Maggi walked towards the entrance of The Armstrong Group, she noticed most of the workers were gathered with puzzlement in their faces.“This is inhumane!” She heard Grandma Jane's voice.Grandma had left the house before her but she had thought Grandma Jane was with Liam's mom as they had discussed getting him out of jail today.As she approached, she saw the directors of Platinum Enterprises walking in.“Mr. Byron is in the office. I wonder if he's aware of this.” A staff member murmured.Maggi kept hearing exclamations. “What's wrong, what's happening? What's the commotion about?” Maggi finally asked as she got to the crowd but was unable to get to Grandma Jane to ask questions due to how huge the crowd was.The staff member pointed, “Look, there's a coffin in front of the entrance!”Maggi was taken aback, “A coffin?” She frowned and excused herself to see for herself. “Excuse me, please.” She said and the crowd immediately gave way for her to pass through.It was then and ther
While the commotion was going on, Byron was in his office, making a long term call with Bruno and the rest of his men.He wasn't notified with anything and when Joanna knocked on his door to announce the recent development, he asked not to be disturbed.Because indeed, it was going to take a while for him to get off the phone as this call was about his father's health condition, his late mother's killers and also, Ethan's murderers.Meanwhile, at the door entrance where the commotion was taking place.“Did the three of you have anything to do with this coffin here?” The leader pointed at the coffin in front of them.Two out of the three started crying, while the other one who seemed tough and stronger just stood there with a frown not caring about the looks he got from the well dressed staff or even the cops.“I'm sorry, officers! I promise it was the devil, I didn't mean to do it!” “I'd say the truth. Though I did it for the money….”He didn't finish when the tough guy cut him short
“Byron you've gone too far! How dare you pull such a stunt in a workplace?! If you have so much hate in you! Did you had to bring it here!” Maggi roared and her expression was dark. “I don't understand.” Byron and Joanna exchanged a confused glance but Joanna’s mouth was wide open. A common woman such as Maggi had just hit her boss! “Oh…quit playing dumb with me!” There was a hint of anger in Maggi's voice. Evidently, Byron felt hostility towards her family. And with those men's confession, there's no one else who can do such except him! As if his presence wasn't enough for, he had to threaten them with such an inhumane act? Byron raised a brow at her. For all he knows he hasn't done anything to get on her nerves for her to slap his cheek. “Well you might as well just tell me what's going on. You going on and on in circles aren't giving me clues to what you're talking about.” Byron said, his voice firm. He had a stern look as he stared into her raging eyes. He hadn't seen thi
Byron was stunned by Maggi's hurtful words. He was in a shocked state. He had thought things between them had taken a new turn but hearing her furious outburst, he only realized the hate she had towards him was still planted in her heart. She doesn't even believe when he said he had nothing to do with the coffin outside. “You seriously think I hired people to bring a coffin here?” Byron's brows were deeply furrowed as he stared at Maggi. “Am I that horrible and despicable to you?” “Yes, you are!” Maggi blurted out immediately. Though had a little regret after saying it, she couldn't take it back. Her ego wouldn't let her. Byron smiled. At least her mask was off and this was the Maggi he had always known, not the apologetic or calm Maggi. She had been putting up a show all this while after all. So dumb of him to think they could actually be cool with each other again. “Glad to know what you truly think of me.” Byron had a disappointed expression but still looked calm. “For a
Mr. Brown, the lawyer, shook hands with Byron as they both exchanged greetings.Joanna was sure the best. He wouldn't have been alert on Byron's arrest if she hadn't contacted him on time.The cops knew the law. They were aware that they weren't allowed to interrogate people without the presence of their respective lawyers so they apologized and did the interrogation properly with the presence of Mr. Brown.Immediately, they got talking and the three men were brought in for questioning.Scott cleared his throat, “Can you give us a valid evidence that my client indeed hired you all?”The police objected immediately, “Mr. Brown allows us to do the interrogation, please.” Byron nodded then Brown took his seat without saying a word.The cops turned to face the three of them.“Answer his last question, do you have any evidence that Mr. Byron here hired you to send a threat to The Armstrong Group?”The three men stared at each other in silence. They murmured, trying to buy time to come up
Byron raised a questioning brow. “Alex?” Carol nodded immediately, “Yes, sir.” Alex? Her response to whose account the company's funds went caught him off guard. His mind had wondered which one of his enemies would have gotten hold of his company's funds to want to bring him down. 2 billion was a lot and 6.8 being at risk was even worse. Wait… how did… where did… Byron ran his hands through his hair, in confusion. Alex could never do such, could she? Just then, his phone beeped and immediately, he answered the call. It was the company's account officer. At the moment he dropped the car, he turned to Carol with furrowed brows. “Call Alex, now!” She nodded and immediately stepped out to do the needful before returning. After the call, she also got the email on the funds that just went out. “Boss, the 6.8 billionaire that was at risk had been pulled into that same dummy account.” She announced then Byron nodded like he was aware. “The company's auditor just gave m
