The caller's jaw dropped. This revelation sent a shiver down his spine. Remained stern, he retorted. “You have killed my men; that means you are ready to bear all the consequences of your actions.”Arnold huffed, not afraid of the mafia’s threats. “I’ll face it then. Why not?” His words dripped with fearlessness.The mafia gritted his teeth as his grip on the phone tightened. With anger, he hung up the phone.“You bastard kid!”“You have raised the flag of war by killing my men. You won’t get away!” he determined.Meanwhile, Arnold and his men left the building. Unbeknownst to them, when they arrived on the 1st floor, there were 2 men who were spying on them. The two men were none other than the mafia’s men.The mafia did not only send 4 people, but 6 people to seize the power potion. From the start he intended to seize it and did not want to participate in a fair auction.In the attack, 4 people were tasked with storming the auction room, while 2 others were on guard. They did not ex
“NOOO!”Tears streamed down the woman’s face. She struggled while screaming for help until her voice was hoarse, but no one wanted to help her.The big man roughly ripped the dress she was wearing. With all her might, she tried to keep the clothes on her body until the man had a little difficulty tearing the clothes.The dress was torn at the sleeves, revealing her arms and cleavage. The man drooled seeing her body part that was revealed.“You’re mine tonight, honey. You won’t regret spending the night with me,” he whispered in a lustful voice.His words sent a shiver down her spine. She pounded his chest hard so that he would get away from her.His rage had reached its peak. His jaw tightened as his eyes darkened. Fueled by rage, he landed a hard slap on her face until the corner of her lips bled.SLAP!“Arghh!” The woman’s body was thrown onto the sofa. Her condition was getting weaker. Her energy was gone; there was no more left to fight back.A wry smile crept on his face as he be
Arnold huffed. His foot pressed harder on the man's chest, making it difficult for him to breathe. "How dare you tell me to get out of here!" he shouted.The man's hands tried to remove Arnold's foot from his chest, but it felt too heavy for him. His breath hitched, and cold sweat poured down his face. He was on the verge of death if Arnold kept his foot on his chest."P-please," he begged in a weak voice.Arnold quickly moved his foot. The man's breathing began to improve; he stared at Arnold with a vengeful gaze."I don't want to leave here, but you and those useless people must get out of here!" Arnold stated firmly."But—" The man wanted to speak, but Arnold interrupted him."I don't see any logical reason for all of you to stay here! I don't care if this is your headquarters, because you have committed a crime against a woman. This is your retribution!" Arnold exclaimed as he pointed his finger, making the man's mouth shut in fear."Don't lie down here like an idiot, and get out
“What did you find out about her, Charles?” Arnold asked as he frowned.Charles turned his gaze to Arnold. “Angela Brooks is 23 years old. She attended The Greenwood University, but she dropped out in her second year. She works as a cashier at a fast food restaurant, Super Fried Chicken.” He sighed before continuing. “And we’re looking into her family information, but unfortunately Miss Brooks is an orphan.”“What?” Arnold was taken aback. He looked at Angela’s face with pity. “Then we better take her to the hospital now!” he ordered.Carlos lifted Angela’s body and carried her into the car. After they were all in the car, they drove off to the hospital.Within a kilometer, there was the most expensive hospital in the city. As Arnold ordered, Charles drove his car towards the hospital.Upon arriving at the hospital, the 4 men decided not to all get out of the car. The trio were wearing formal attire that would only attract unwanted attention from people.So they decided that only Arno
Arnold chuckled at Angela's reaction. He shrugged his shoulders as he spoke. "Hmm, sorry. I didn't know if this hospital was the most expensive one in this city. What was in my mind was this is the closest hospital to the thug's house," he answered with a small smile.Angela furrowed her eyebrows; she stared at Arnold sharply. "Are you a tourist?"He nodded. "Yes, I'm from Italy."Angela sighed heavily while rubbing her head. "No wonder.""Oh my God, how do I pay the bill at this hospital?" she grumbled.A spoon filled with food approached her mouth. Angela's gaze shifted to Arnold, who was pointing the spoon at her.Arnold raised his eyebrows, signaling her to eat the food. But Angela just pushed the food away."I'm sorry, Arnold. I don't have an appetite. After knowing that I'm in this hospital, I better think of a way to get money to pay my bills," she replied while looking away from Arnold. Mirthless was clearly visible on her face.“Hey Angela, you don’t have to worry about this
Arnold nodded hesitantly. “Yes, he is still alive,” he answered shortly.Angela’s curiosity increased. Her gaze became more intense. “Really? So the heir to the Winster family is now his grandson?”The silence atmosphere paused their conversation for a moment because Arnold just kept quiet and didn’t answer right away. Angela stared at Arnold, waiting for his answer.While shaking his head, Arnold answered. “Hmm, I don’t know about that, Angela. I’m not really interested in the Winster family’s life.” His tone seemed to indicate a desire to end this topic of conversation.She nodded in understanding, then lay down on the bed.“Angela.” Arnold’s voice distracted her gaze.Angela stared at Arnold without responding verbally.“You haven’t told me why you ended up in that thug’s house. May I know, if you don’t mind?” Arnold asked with genuine concern.Before starting to tell her story, she took a deep breath. Tears seemed to be wetting her eyes, remembering the dark scene.“My boyfriend h
“Bring him before me, dead or alive!” The figure’s commanding voice echoed throughout the room.A servant respectfully bowed his body before the figure. “Alright, Master. I assure you that he won’t get away.”In a dimly lit room, a man was sitting on a chair. Two servants were beside him, swinging fans at him. Their gazes were downcast, showing fear and respect for the dominant figure.Not long after the servants left the room, the voice of a man’s screams shrieked in the air. The gazes of the master and his servants turned towards the door, where a man who was being whipped stepped into the room.SHEESH!The whip landed again on his back, creating a red line that bled blood on his skin. He screamed in pain, and suddenly his body collapsed.“Arghh!”The whipper glared at him angrily. “What are you doing, you fool?” he snapped. “Don’t pretend to be weak because your act will be useless!”But the man was still curled up on the floor. His breath hitched and his eyes closed.“Is he really
In the next morning, the voices of two people arguing filled a room in a hospital in New York City.“Come on Angela, tell me what Adorjan Jackson looks like,” Arnold implored as he looked at Angela expectantly. He had been urging her since last night, but she seemed adamant about covering up the case.Angela stuck to her guns from the start. She shook her head.“I said no! Arnold, you should know that this is not something you can take lightly. Besides, why insist on taking revenge on him? Isn’t the reason you came to New York because your boss sent you on a business trip? Then why are you busy taking care of something that is not your domain?” Angela exclaimed. Worry and indignation mixed in her gaze.Arnold fell silent for a moment. Angela and Adorjan’s problem was indeed none of his business. But knowing that Adorjan was linked to a mafia in this city made this problem automatically his business. His late grandfather had eradicated the mafia and helped the weak.Arnold was determin
