“Tell me. How did this happen? Were you guys outnumbered? Were his men too much for all of you to handle?” The Madame asked, covering her nose. The stench from the blood that was all over the place was horrible.The warehouse now looked like a slaughterhouse. Her men were literally killed like chickens!Never in her wildest dreams has she expected Byron to be capable of killing. Talk more of defeating all her men.She was so dumbfounded when she got the news about Byron finding this place.She couldn't help but wonder, she had made sure this place was out of reach to even the residents in the area. He was probably up to something to have come across her warehouse. That man is sticking his nose where he shouldn't and she was surely going to beat him to it.“Not at all, Madame. The Young Master singlehandedly did all of this.” Levi replied, his head facing the ground.The Madame walked over to Black's body and lowered herself to take a closer look. Then she inspected his body carefully
Byron was shocked. He didn't expect the two of them to be related. “I had no idea. Checking his biography, he never made mention of having a son.” “I’m Black's illegitimate son.” Ethan shut his eyes as he explained. “My mother was a stripper in the club Black owned years ago. He had a thing with her and my mother got pregnant. In order to save himself, even though he told me he was protecting me; he kept my existence in the dark and abandoned me.” Ethan explained. “After my mother ran away, he said he didn't want his enemies to find out he had a son. If not, they were surely going to use me as bait to kill him. I struggled right from when I was a kid because that bastard chose himself over me.” Byron took a deep breath. “Bastard? Do you hate him?” “With every bone in my body!” Ethan seeth angrily. “He doesn't deserve to live after leaving me in the cold street!” “I’m sorry you had to go through that.” Ethan didn't look affected by his father's death. It's been 18 long years
“The ones you can afford will be the cheapest ones; Which we sell installmentally. The upfront payment is approximately one hundred and fifty bucks. But unfortunately, we are out of stock for those cars. So, if that would be all, kindly see yourself out, thank you.” “Really?” Byron asked as the lady walked away. Just as he was about to talk, he saw Vanessa and Lloyd at the other section. Seems they were here to get a car as well. Lloyd was smiling while Vanessa seemed to be forcing a smile. Byron could tell she wasn't in a happy mood. Not only did Lloyd look smart, he also looked as wealthy as any honorable man. “Mr. Norton.” The lady who attended to Byron was now in front of Lloyd and Vanessa, greeting them politely. Vanessa nodded and asked, “Has the president of Mega Corporation and his sister arrived yet?” The lady shook her head. “Not yet, ma'am. My eyes have been fixed at the gate but no car drove by.” Vanessa didn't say any more words as Lloyd dismissed the lad
“You're very very beneath me. So, I really doubt that you're even sane to give me empty threats!” Lloyd snapped. Turning to Vanessa, he said, “Cars aren't cheap in Kudi, it's best if he goes to a store to get a good pair of shoes to trek with!”Byron said casually, “Who are you to say I should trek? What makes you think I can’t afford a car here?”Lloyd laughed mockingly, “Sure you can!”Holding Vanessa’s hand softly, he said, “I’m sure this foolish non living thing knows that the president of Mega Corporation is going to be here that’s why he decided to track you down here.”Vanessa could not stand it anymore so she slowly pulled her hands from Lloyd’s hold. “That’s enough Lloyd, I’m willing to get him the Benz… let’s just call it a little gift from me to him.”Just as they were talking, a fairly elegantly dressed woman walked in. Her breathtaking aura filled the air. Her looks were as divine as the goddess herself but the three weren't aware of her presence.The receptionist from e
“Did I make mention of being Mr. Smith's personal ophthalmologist? Believe me, just one word from him, and you'll be dead!” Lloyd felt proud seeing Alex's reaction and felt great satisfaction. He was really confident that by chasing poorly looking men out of a magnificent place like Kudi would impress both women. Alex wasn't having it anymore, she whispered into Byron's ears and walked past Lloyd like he is a nobody. Byron smiled and left while Vanessa and Alex walked into a private office, leaving Lloyd speechless. Just as he was about to follow them, a receptionist walked up to him and said, “I was told the president of Mega Corporation had arrived a while ago.” After hearing that, Lloyd gathered a few personnel who were neatly dressed and split into two rolls at the entrance of the door. Their heads facing the ground, awaiting the presence of the president of Mega. In the next 15 minutes they didn’t see a sign of the president’s car or him in person. “Is Mr. Smith sti
After dropping the call, Lloyd rushed out of the building. He turned around checking to see if he could see the president somewhere or even talking to someone. He didn't want to believe that Byron was…. No. He shook his head. Just then, his gaze fell on Byron who was making a call not too far from him. He did not understand why his uncle's and Carol's description were directed at this poorly looking fool. He walked up to Byron, trying to start a conversation with him. Deep baritone, yeah? He has heard Byron speaking but never really paid attention to his voice or how deep it is or isn't. “Byron, did you by any chance get a call from Mr. Mark? The owner of Kudi?” Byron said casually. “And who wants to know?” Lloyd's head buzzed immediately. He took a step back, glaring at Byron like he just met someone new. There's no way! That baritone was undeniably deep! Hearing him speak just confirmed what his uncle said! How come he never took notice of his voice until his
A car arrived then Byron turned and walked into the first car. Lloyd watched as the car drove out of the building. Just as Alex was about to follow suit, he got up and held her hand. “Ms. Smith, what about the contract…” Alex chuckled, “Well, then sign it.” She bit her lower lip. “The document is right in front of you… if you can still recognize where to put your signature then the contract will be for Kudi.” She said with a hint of sarcasm. Lloyd clenched his fist as she spoke. How the hell was he supposed to sign a paper that's been set on fire? Plus, he doesn't even know what was going on or what he did wrong for Alex and Byron to act coldly towards him. “I don't understand what you're saying but could you please help with the president of Mega Corporation's number? My uncle should be here any moment from now and I really have to…” “Who do you think just left? The governor of Mega Corporation?” is he sick or something? Lloyd was stunned. Just as he was about to ta
She took the USB back and placed it in her purse before leaving. She was already late and wouldn't wanna waste anymore time. She handed Ava to her nanny before walking out. As she got into her car, she heard Ava's voice. “You promised Daddy was going to come back. Is he angry at us? When is he coming back? Doesn't he love us anymore?” Liam and their uncle, Larry walked out of the as they heard Ava's trembling voice. Maggi paused and turned to look at Ava who was standing beside her nanny. She was speechless! She has promised that the last time because of her deal with Liam. Only now, she wished she had made her daughter see the one she has ever known as father. Larry went over to Ava with a smile. “It's okay honey. I'd go bring your daddy to you okay?” “Yay!” Ava hugged the old man and ran back inside. Liam didn't like this idea. He raised a brow at Maggi but she simply ignored it. What does he want her to do? Tell the old man and little Ava that Liam was her father?
