THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 157
Nathan's expression turned even colder as he left Vanessa’s office. Darius had crossed the line too many times, and now, it was time to end the game once and for all. The moment the elevator doors slid shut, he pulled out his phone and dialed James’s number, his ever-loyal butler and right-hand man."James," Nathan said. "Get the men ready. We're paying Darius a visit."James immediately understood what his boss was saying; he knew very well what it meant that they would be paying Darius a visit. It meant only one thing: Darius was a dead man."Alright, Lord Cloud, I'll get the men ready," James replied promptly before Nathan hung up the call. Nathan's jaw clenched as he hung up, his hands tightening into fists. Darius had dared to steal from him, dared to meddle in their lives once more. This was the last time, and Nathan was going to make sure of it.Back at Cloud Mansion, the air was filled with tension. Nathan strode into the expansive garage, where James was already making su

Darius's eyes were fixed on the helicopter ahead. As the blades rotated, he knew it was his only chance of survival.“GO! NOW!” Darius yelled, nearly tripping over his own feet in his desperation.The pilot nodded, his trembling hands already moving to prepare for takeoff.Darius threw himself into the back seat of the helicopter, slamming the door shut. The engine roared, and the chopper slowly began to lift off the ground.Meanwhile, inside the mansion, Nathan’s men were closing in. Darius’s guards, despite their numbers, were either down or trying to escape.“Sir!” One of Nathan’s men came running up, panting. “He’s at the helipad. The helicopter is taking off!”Nathan’s jaw clenched as anger coursed through his veins. “Shoot it down,” he ordered.Without hesitation, he informed the rest of Nathan's men.On the helipad, just as the helicopter began to rise above the mansion’s roof, several of Nathan’s men burst out from the mansion with their rifles aimed at the sky.They opened fi

The message repeated once more before the speaker went silent.The news left Hastings and Edward in a very suffocating atmosphere. Hastings looked like he might collapse. His face was totally drained of color, and his eyes were wide with fear. “Sh*t! We’re doomed,” he whispered, his entire body trembling.“Get it together!” Edward barked, rising from his seat. “It’s just a meeting. Nothing more. If Nathan really knew what we did, he would have had us arrested by now.”“But after what he did to Darius...” Hastings began.“Exactly,” Edward cut him off. “After what he did to Darius, you think we’d still be alive if he knew? No. This meeting is just like the others. We just need to make sure Darius doesn’t open his mouth. That’s it.”Hastings nodded weakly, still visibly shaken, but he couldn't help but admit that Edward was right. If Nathan had found out about their involvement, he wouldn’t bother with meetings. He’d come for them just like he came for Darius.Edward straightened his ti

The room remained heavy with silence as Lord Cloud sat at the head of the table. His mere presence exuded an aura of power and authority so intense that no one even dared to speak.All around the conference room, employees began to shift uncomfortably in their seats, and sweat was even forming on some of their foreheads.Each one of them began to replay every decision, every minor slip-up in their minds, wondering if they had done anything to incur Lord Cloud's wrath. Some glanced nervously at their colleagues, while others bowed their heads, too afraid to meet Nathan's intense gaze.Hastings was visibly shaking, his shirt already soaked in sweat. His mind was racing, and his heart pounded against his chest like a hammer. Does he know? The question replayed in his mind endlessly. He could feel the cold, piercing stare of Nathan boring through him. Sylvester, too, was breaking under the pressure; he had pulled out of the plan with Darius, but what if backing out was not enough to a
THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 161
Nathan stood over Edward, Hastings, and Sylvester like an executioner, his face cold and devoid of emotion.The entire room was silent, save for the groans of the men who were brutally hit.His cold gaze swept across the conference room, locking eyes with every employee, one by one. They were too afraid to even blink under his intense gaze.Nathan finally spoke, his voice low and commanding, making the entire room tremble. "I disguised myself as a cleaner for weeks," he began. "To observe. To see how things were really being run in my company."He let his words sink in, taking a slow sip of whiskey before placing the glass back on the table. “What I witnessed… disappointed me.”The employees could feel the judgment in his words. Each of them began to remember their interactions with the 'cleaner' they had so easily ignored. The man they had disrespected, bullied, and overlooked was none other than Lord Cloud himself.Nathan continued, "I saw people who thought they were better than ot
THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 162
The three executives—Edward, Hastings, and Sylvester, who were to be bartered to even speak, lay there waiting for the judgment of the Lord.Of course, Nathan had not forgotten about them. He turned his gaze to his trusted men. “Take them. Lock them up, along with their families, until they vomit every dime they stole.”His voice was ice-cold, devoid of any hesitation or pity.The same Lord Cloud that had given Grace and her son an opportunity of a lifetime had now condemned the executives and their entire families.The employees watched in fear as the security team moved swiftly, gathering Edward, Hastings, and Sylvester. Their faces were pale, drained of color, as they were dragged out of the room like criminals."I want every last cent returned," Nathan continued, his voice echoing off the walls.As the executives were dragged away, the employees exchanged nervous glances.Nathan's men followed their orders to the letter; they found each of their family members and locked them all
THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 163
A few days later, Grace was walking through the hallways of Cloud Corporation. Heads turned as she passed, and the employees greeted her with smiles and so much respect.Grace was no longer the overlooked cleaner, who was ignored, disrespected, and bullied by people. She was now one of the top managers in the company, making important decisions that were impactful to Cloud Corporation.“Good morning, Miss Grace!” one of the junior employees greeted her with a broad smile.“Good morning,” Grace replied, still getting used to the way people now treated her with such respect.Even the executives, who used to walk past her without ever acknowledging her, now went out of their way to greet her and help her out any way they could.It was almost unbelievable. Grace had never sought power or wealth, yet now she held both in abundance, all because of her kindness and integrity.One afternoon, as Grace left the office building after closing from work, she was greeted by a sleek black car parked
THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 164
“Why have you not found Darius yet?” Nathan demanded.His men were standing before him in his office, and the atmosphere was tense.It had been over three weeks since they raided Darius' estate, and he escaped, and his men were not able to find him to date.James then took a step forward. “Lord Cloud, we’ve searched everywhere. We've used every connection, every resource, but it's as if he vanished without a trace. We’ve tried every lead, every hideout we know of, but... nothing.”Nathan’s eyes darkened, his fury barely contained.How could a small fly like Darius manage to slip through their hands?“How is it that you can't find him? How hard could it be to find a single man in Prescott?"The men shifted uncomfortably, their shoulders tense under the weight of Nathan’s glare.James then finally spoke up. “He’s got deep connections, Lord Cloud. He’s gone completely underground. We suspect he may have left the country, or he’s being protected by someone very powerful.”Nathan rose from

Nathan’s consciousness began to return as a sharp intake of breath filled his lungs. His chest rose violently, his body convulsing like he’d been struck by lightning. Then came the surge which felt like electricity, the force that seemed to awaken every cell in him. Power unlike anything he had ever felt began to course through his veins. It wasn’t just adrenaline; it was something supernatural. Nathan’s fingers twitched, curling into the dirt beneath him. Despite his wounds he felt zero pain. The darkened sky rumbled, thunder cracked, and the atmosphere was heavy as if the heavens themselves were about to witness what was about to happen. Nathan opened his eyes. They gleamed with an intensity they hadn’t held beforebefore, he staggered to his feet, and his fingers curled into a fist. The branch he had clung to was now in pieces beneath him, Nathanglanced upward, and his jaws tightened. Sebastian!!! Nathan didn’t need to think. He planted his foot against the rock wa
CHAPTER 304
Nathan clung desperately onto the branch, he was not just holding onto the branch, he was holding unto it for his dear life, one snap and everything wound be over. Historic shoulders were seriously bleeding and he did not know how much longer he could hold on. His body trembled under the weight of exhaustion and pain, but in his mind he refused to surrender. Not like this. Not today. The branch creaked remindinf him that time was running out. Nathan closed his eyes and he gritted his teeth as he tired to summon the strength to pull himself up. He could hear Sebastian’s cruel laughter above as he mocked him. The so called Almighty Lord Cloud was finally taken down by his own half brother. "Tell your son that his father was a coward..." Nathan’s eyes burned red with determination but his body was too weak. The branch snapped with a sudden, deafening crack, and Nathan fell once again into the abyss. His body slammed against the rocks as he tumbled down the cliff. Eac

Nathan’s body ached, but he forced himself to stand up.There was so much defiance burning in his eyes.Blood trickled down his face, and his shoulder throbbed where Sebastian had driven the lion's tooth.He tired to catch his breath but he knew one thing for sure, he was not going to fall. Sebastian, however, remained unmoved, he stood over Nathan with a grin on his bloodied face. "You really do not know when to quit, do you?" Sebastian taunted him. Nathan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand. "I will never quit," he said in a hoarse voice. "Not until I’ve destroyed you." Sebastian chuckled darkly, he was amused by Nathan's arrogance. "Destroy me?" he repeated mockinghim. "You can’t even stand properly, Lord Cloud." Once again he lunged forward with lightning speed, his fists striking Nathan. Nathan barely managed to block the first blow, but the second punch hit his jaw, and it sent him staggering backward. Sebastian didn’t relent. He clo
CHAPTER 302
The morning sum was rising and everywhere was still except for the crackle of flames from the wrecked vehicles.The sky was filled with smoke and Sabastian glared at Nathan with blood trickling down the side of his face. Yet even in that state, his lips curled into a mocking smile as Nathan finally came to a stop few feet away.Nathan's gun raised and aimed directly at Sebastian's forehead."You should be mourning, Nathan," Sebastian sneered.He knew that his men were able to disarm the bomb at the studium but he saw Vanessa's car go up in flames there was no way she could have survived that."Your wife’s gone. Your child is dead. And here you are, trying to play hero."Nathan's jaw clenched at the mention of his child.He took a step closer, the gun steady in his hand, his eyes blazing with fury. "Vanessa survived," he said. "But my child didn’t. And for that, you will pay—with your life."Sebastian laughed, a very dry and one. "So Vanessa didn't die?"He then paused for a moment."I
CHAPTER 301
Nathan sat in the hospital waiting room, his head buried in his hands. His shirt was still sOaked with his wife's blood, and his heart pounding in his chest. Minutes kind of felt like hours, and every time he heard footsteps, Nathan’s head shot upas he was hoping for answers. Finally, a tall doctor approached him, he had a calm expression but it felt like he was about to set something bad. Nathan stood immediately, his legs unsteady beneath him. “Doctor,” he began, his voice cracking, “how is she? Is she—” “She’s stable,” the doctor said gently. “Your wife is a fighter, Mr. President. She’s going to be okay.” Nathan exhaled deeply, his body sagging with relief. It felt as if a knit in his chest was lossened. “Thank God,” he whispered. His trembling hands moved to his face and he wiped the sweat off his foehead. But the doctor’s expression didn’t change, and Nathan’s heart sank again. “There’s… something else you need to know, ” the doctor said. “What is i
CHAPTER 300
Nathan’s car moved closer to Vanessa's car as the seconds ticked by. His driver kept the pace steady, but Nathan leaned halfway out of the window. The two cars moved side by side, they wereclose enough for Nathan to see the tears on her cheeks, her lips were quivering as she held the wheel.“Vanessa!” he called, his voice thick with desperation. “Stay with me! Listen to me!” She shook her head violently, as she continued to sob. “I can’t,” she mouthed again, her voice was drowned by the sound of the engines. Nathan’s heart twisted painfully. The countdown in his mind was growing louder, and Sebastian’s mocking voice still lingered like poison. Time was running ou, Vanessa has to get out of the car before it explodes. “Vanessa,” he called out against."You have to let go. On the count of three, I want you to jump.” Her eyes widened, fear spilling over into fresh tears. She shook her head, mouthing, No, I can’t. I can’t do it.“Yes, you can!” he said fiercely. “You have to! T
CHAPTER 299
Nathan’s car sped through the streets of Prescott, he was sweating profusely as his mind was racing. The clock was ticking, and Sebastian’s voice echoed in his ears “Choose wisely.”His phone buzzed, jolting him from his thoughts. It was his security chief. “Sir,” the man said urgently, “we’ve manage to track Vanessa’s car. She’s on the move.” Nathan’s chest tightened. “On the move? She wasn’t supposed to move. Send me the GPS coordinates now!” “Understood, sir. Sending them your way.” Moments later, his phone pinged with the location. His eyes scanned the map, and his heart sank. The car was heading toward a major intersection, not far, but not close enough. Nathan barked orders into the intercom. “Get eyes on that car now! I need a visual. And keep the stadium search going. Do not stop until that bomb is found.” “Yes, Mr. President,” he said swiftly. Nathan gripped the steering as he pushed the car to it's limit. His mind replayed Sebastian’s ultimatum over and over.
