Beatrice, Alex’s mother was about to talk when Alex immediately stood from her seat and said, “Mum, i think my eyelashes stuck in my eyes. It's causing me a little discomfort. Mind helping me check it out?” She touched her eyes, getting up from her seat. “Come honey, let me check it out.” Beatrice said, gesturing for Alex to go to her. “Here? Let's go to my room, not here.” Alex gestured and her mum got up and reluctantly followed her. Alex smiled at Byron before leaving the table with Beatrice. “Byron here is my–” “Bodyguard.” Byron beat him to it. His father might have forgotten he wasn't wearing his eye-patch. Don narrowed his eyes on his son. He knew Byron was still hiding his identity but he should exclude all the members of The Mighty Four. Especially Lord Dee, he was his closest friend and he should know who his son is. “Oh.” Vanessa sighed. “That's right.” Don nodded even if he wasn't in support of it and he was ready to talk Byron out of hiding his identity. It's only r
Carol pushed the door and gently walked in. “Good morning, boss.” She greeted, bowing her head.“Your meeting with the Armstrong Group is happening In an hour,” Still typing on his system, Byron replied, “Okay.” Without raising his head at her. Carol thought it was unusual for her boss to be moody on a Monday morning but who was she to question him?She cleared her throat and stretched the file in her hands to him. “Ms. Jane dropped this earlier. They are ready to buy back their shares. Though they still want to work with us… but they want the majority shares of their company back.” Carol explained.Still not raising his head, Byron muttered. “They must be high on cheap drugs.”He wasn't in the mood and he certainly didn't want anyone to add to it. The investigator he got to investigate his mother's death had provided him with the information he needed to track down those murderers. The location to find them was somewhat familiar and chopping their heads off was all he could think
Before sending the files, Byron made sure to include the part of not allowing them to claim their shares back after one month. It's nobody's fault that they didn't go through the document before signing and it's been almost two months since they signed their shares to his company.So legally, he had not just the upper hand now, they were at his mercy if he refused to sell or allow them to buy back their shares.“It was stated that after a month, we wouldn't be able to buy back our shares. I saw and read it and still accepted it, it's really disturbing that you guys didn't go through it before signing.” A member dressed in a corporate outfit said, shaking his head in disappointment.“I'd admit, I saw it… and still approved it. I thought being the head and having the final say, you'd be able to come up with the money before the due date.” Another member chimed in, stirring up conversations in the room.“It's nobody's fault here, Ms. Armstrong, it's wise for you to thoroughly go throug
After reading the text, Byron appeared normal. He wasn’t interested in whosoever Lucas' brother was, neither was he afraid of him. Lastly, he didn't tell his men to help destroy anything. He could protect himself from who this person was. He raised his head at Lloyd. “I'd get back to you whenever I need your help, please excuse me.” He Left along with his bodyguards who opened the door for him to get into his car. _ Later that afternoon, at the Stones Villa. Lord Dee stood by Lucas' coffin with his eyes closed. Pain evidence on his face. He had objected to burying Lucas until his murderer was killed. He was bent on burying that asshole in the same coffin with Lucas. It's only fair that they both go down six feet! Vanessa and the members of the Stones family all sat in the living room in silence. Not a word was uttered and the atmosphere was very tense. The entire family was reeling for the lost. Lucas' death was something no one expected and as long as his murderer w
And that voice… he had heard that voice before. He couldn't say for sure, but he knew that voice was somewhat familiar.The men stared at Byron with a bloodthirsty look. They had made sure this place was unrecognizable for the cops and even to anyone who might probably be in search of them. The old cars, the grass and the emptiness was enough to tell that this warehouse has long been abandoned even if in reality it was just a disguise to get the cops and other enemies off their back.“Seems you're going to be a lesson to others! Then perhaps, in your next life you'd learn to read notices before getting into places like this!” Byron listened in silence as the one with the familiar face spoke. However, before they could continue, there was a thunderous sound of footsteps. A hefty group of thugs armed with machetes and long rods rushed in.Byron chuckled. “Are they here to join the fun as well?” He stated calmly.They all laughed. “Asshole! You dare intrude in our privacy and still h
As his blood dropped, Byron moved at lightning speed, his fists were undeniably powerful. Every strike took one man down. One punch from him knocked the men off. Even his kick could bend a steel rod in half. Black watched as Byron Swiftly took all his men's swords and brought them lying on the floor in the space of 2 minutes. What did he just witness?! Byron raised his right hand and saw that he had almost lost his Index finger. His index finger is now short. His fingers on his right hand were now looking like he had just four instead of five. He turned to the guy who did it and pulled him close. He reached for his finger, and placed it on the table in front of him. “Ah!” Levi yelled as Byron chopped off his Index finger as well. Now they were even! “Stop it, please!” Levi cried as Byron threw him on top of the others who were now groaning in pains on the floor. Black watched in horror while the rest of the men behind him looked horrified. Levi was brought to him
Byron stopped by his father's Villa first before going back to his apartment. It was 11;45 pm and obviously, his father and the rest should be asleep by now.Seeing the young master, the securities immediately bowed, opening the gate for him.He got down from his car and as he walked into the house, he was on a call with his private investigator.He wasn't satisfied with the outcome he got today. Yes he went to the location but he didn't get any valuable information to track down the Madame.For Black to have killed himself to prove loyalty was more reason for him not to relent on the search for this boss of theirs.“Come to my apartment, first thing tomorrow. You have a new target.” Byron spoke into his phone as he walked into his father's study.He tried looking for something only he could think of. The smallest trace he could get to track down that Madame was all he needed right now.She seems not to be just any woman. He had to admit, he felt disturbed and judging from what happen
“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
