In contrast to the commotion that just happened, both Vanessa and Alex remained calm.

Byron had given Alex his card, so she elegantly walked over to the auctioneer and they both went to a private office to discuss the payment. Since Lloyd was unable to make payments.

“I promise, Mr. Norton was just saying things. I apologize for his outburst.” Vanessa said to Byron as Alex went further away.

Byron smiled. “You know I'm not…”

“Byron!”

Suddenly they heard a female voice and turned to see who it was.

As Vanessa saw it was Maggi, she shifted her gaze to Byron. “Go ahead, Mr. Byron. I'd be in the car.”

She smiled and walked away. Her evening was almost ruined and she didn't need anyone else to add to it, plus, she was confident in herself.

“Yes? You called? Is there something I can help you with?” Byron asked, slowly shifting his gaze to Maggi.

“What were you thinking competing with the president of Shaw Group? Do you have any idea who he is at all? His Father is…”

“Why do you care, Ms. Ar

    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.

    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

    THE END

    “Yes boss.” They replied and claimed in the truck, cutting the rope in his legs, causing Derek to fall on the floor. “Hmmm.” Derek groaned as his head landed on the floor. His body aching from the burns he had gotten due to the fire. He couldn't open his eyes as his eyes lid was closed, and squeezed together. He forced it and tried to see how badly burnt he was but he couldn't. He couldn't barely hear a thing to say the least…. He needed water but he couldn't talk. The heat he was feeling was unbearable. Suddenly, he felt his body being dragged on the floor. “What are you trying to do to him?!” Sophia yelled as Byron's men dragged Derek to the river side. “Shut up and watch!” Byron frowned at her. The river wasn't far from where they stood so they all turned and watched as Derek was dumb at the edge of the river. “What the fuck?!” “Christ! Jeez…. Oh my God!” Woah! Byron heard the three of them screaming as a crocodile jumped out of the water and dragged Derek's body into it.

    TORTURED

    “Raise your hands, you Moron!” Marcus, one of Byron's men, ordered Derek while Byron sat, crossing his legs with a smile as he watched Marcus and the rest do their job.“What are they going to do to me?” Derek barked, struggling to free himself from this white guy's grip.“It's a surprise!” Byron mocked.Marcus and four of his colleagues pulled out the rope before tying the end of the rope around Derek's both legs like a goat that's about to be slaughtered.“What the fuck is this, Byron?! Stop them!!!” Derek thundered as the smug look on Byron's face only irritated him.“I have your cousin! You kill or hurt me? You do the same to him!! I gave my men an order! If in 20 minutes they don't see me, they put a bullet in his skull!” Derek screams on top of his lungs.“It's funny how you think you still have up to 20 minutes to live!” Byron laughed as he watched his men tie the other end of the rope at the huge truck beside Derek.“Fuck!” Derek yelled as his head it hit the ground then Marcu

    LET THE WAR BEGIN

    The black dude with Sophia walked over to them, then Sophia pointed at Byron, “Hey the cards from him!” She commanded the man who ran past her, intending to grab Byron but then, the place exploded, causing his body to scatter all over, his flesh dropping on the floor.Though the bomb wasn’t designed to cause that much explosion, it was meant to kill just a person who gets close to the string! Sophia, who covered her ears due to the loud noise, felt something trickle down her face. She raised her hand to touch her face.“Christ!” She screams. The black dude's blood scattered all over her face.Meanwhile, Sucre was at the Jeep where Sara was, trying to untie her.“Where is Byron? Where is he?” Sara asked as Sucre helped with the rope around her legs.“He's trying to get this war over and down with. Once and for all.” Sucre replied.“And…. And Sophia?” She asked, getting down from the car.“With the explosion we just heard? She should be dead.” Sucre added. “Come, you're my responsibili

    STRING

    Byron arrived at the address he gave Derek. He got out of his car, handed the key to Marcus, one of his most trusted men. “The three of you get the five cars out of this vicinity. No cars should be seen here when they arrive.” He ordered, walking away while the rest of his men all surrounded the entire place just like he instructed them.They trooped in, hiding in the rooftop of the building, digging the sand close to the sea and burying themselves; in anticipation of what was to come. There were about a hundred and fifty of them, and they were all dressed in black. And had about three to four guns were with them.Their guns were fully loaded, and as they took their different positions, they set their guns in front of them, aiming it in the direction Byron, their boss instructed them.In about 10 minutes, the 150 men had successfully hidden themselves and when Byron turned to inspect the place, it was as calm and clear as if it was just him and Sucre that were present.“Brilliant, Byr

    LOCATION

    Sophia took her seat not too far from Sara who was tied to a chair. She could still remember when she arrived at Derek's residence, with the aim of ending his life for all the pain he had caused her but then, she yelled a chaotic noise, causing her to raise her head up to the balcony at the seventh floor. Derek's room.To her shocking surprise, Sara was jumping out of his room. At first, she thought it was ridiculous for Sara to be in her baby Daddy's room but then, she knew how much Derek was obsessed with Sarah, not knowing she was Sara, Byron's wife. An idea dropped in her head then she changed her plans. Why kill Derek and be jailed and still lose at the end with no money, when she could get someone else to do the job and still get a lot of money with her?It was then she turned and patiently waited for Sara to swing off the water before tailing her down to this small hut, without being noticed.“I'm sorry we had to meet this way, Sara….” Sophia smirked, her gaze fixed on Sara.“

    ORDERS FROM TWO ENEMIES

    “Ahhh.. ouch…” Sara cried.Not her stomach again! She had been protecting this one with her life. And now this monster wants to kill it before it even gets the opportunity to form in her stomach!“I'd kill you myself! Before you think of going back to that husband if yours, I'd gladly have your blood as wine!” He had a bloodthirsty look as he placed the broken bottle on her skin, slowly dragging it and cutting deep into her flesh.“No…” Sara whimpered as he cut her hands and her blood gushed out of her body.Enduring the pain; behind her, she placed her hand into her pocket, grabbing the pencil knife she placed there when she was leaving the warehouse. She knew dealing with Derek was a dangerous idea, but not being armed was a foolish idea.Without warning, she pulled and slid it across his cheek. Not satisfied with it, she raised her hand and stuck the knife into his chest.Derek gasped, “Shit!” He yelled as she stabbed him and tried to flee but he grabbed her by her legs. “Let me g

    Lincoln didn't realize a car had stopped behind him when he was trying to pass through the gate to go back and look for Byron who was obviously still in the yard, probably getting cooked alive.The sound of the burning place and the fire made it impossible to hear the cars driving towards him, not until a bullet crashed on his right hand. As he turned, he saw Derek pointing his gun right at his face.There was no time to alert Tbaj, he had gotten to his car and was still being shot at when Lincoln himself was pushed into Derek's car. It was after Tbaj was smart enough to zoom off, that Derek walked over to him to ask for Byron's whereabouts.“Oh, he's in that burning yard?” Derek laughed, “Hahaha! Funny!” He said coldly.“You must really think I'm a fool to believe that.” Lincoln shook his head, “I don't think you're a fool, I know you're a bloody big time fool! I even heard you're 39, it's only a matter of one year until your foolishness becomes permanent!” Lincoln thundered, his e

    BYRON’S REMAINS

    “If Byron's is in there….You can't get in!” Tbaj announced, his voice trembling.If both Byron and Sucre were in there, there is a big chance that are probably being cooked by that fire. Just by standing a few feets away, the heat was making his temperature higher than usual.“No, we have to get him!” Lincoln yelled on top of his lungs, his eyes dark with pain and bitterness! He was breathing heavily and sweating hard at the same time! “Shit… Byron! Can you hear me!” He shouted, trying to go over to the gate but the fire was almost brushed over him, but he was quick enough to dodge.He shook his head in frustration. But was determined to go get his cousin. The sight of how greatly the fire has spread across the entire place was to be questioned. Just a bomb couldn't do this! Something or someone definitely has a hand in this! “Don't! Lincoln, it's too dangerous! You wanna get your skin fried?!” Tbaj yells out, far from where he stood, still carrying an unconscious Vanessa in his ha

    EXPLOSION

    “Don't fucking ask questions! Just fucking do as I've instructed, do you hear me?!” Drew barked, frustration evident on his face. He would be a dead man in ten minutes when the timer is off! And these fools are asking questions instead of doing their jobs! If only he could open his chest and tell them that they would be all blown to bits if this isn't carried out but that was going to put him in more trouble with Byron.“What? Do you want me to call the boss now and explain to him how you all are trying to discard and disobey his orders?!” Drew thundered.“Okay… relax… are you crying?” One of the men noticed Drew's eyes ask, concerned in his tone.Sucre resisted the urge of bursting out laughing. “Hold it in, Sucre… don't blow this up.” Byron whispers.“I'm trying..ha..” Sucre bit his lower lip, trying not to laugh. The situation was so fucking funny as he could see the bomb they set on Drew's chest was doing a great job. He must commend Byron for bringing out such brilliant ideas e
