THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 166
The doctor leaned forward, placing a hand on her shoulder. “We’ll do everything we can to help Brian, Mrs. Grace. But right now, you need to do everything you can to get the money to save his life.”Grace nodded through her tears. She wiped her eyes as she tired to steady her herself, but it was not working, her mind was already looking for solutions, where to get the money from. “Thank you, Doctor,” she said as she stood, her body was still shaking in fear. “I… I will try and see if I can find the money.”Grace walked out of the office in a daze, her thoughts raced as she tried to figure out what to do next. She had no one to turn to for help. Her savings would not even raise her even half of the money. The only person she could think of… was Nathan.But would he help her?She had never asked Nathan for anything beyond her job. He had already done so much for her, giving her a chance to rebuild her life. How could she possibly ask him for five hundred thousand dollars? Would he ev

At that moment, the door swung open wider, revealing a tall man with an air of authority. It was Grace’s father-in-law, Thomas, his face twisted with anger as he laid eyes on her. “What is this? What are you doing here, Grace?” he barked.“I—I need help,” Grace stammered as he glared at her with disdain. “Brian is in the hospital. He needs surgery, and I don’t have the money to pay for it. I came to ask for your help, please!”Thomas laughed, a harsh and humorless sound. “Help? After you killed my son? What makes you think we will help the witch who brought such shame upon this family?”“Thomas, who is making you behave like this?” came a voice from behind him. It was his wife, Elaine, and as soon as her eyes fell on Grace, she started to boil with anger."You wicked witch!" she barked. "Have you come to kill one of us again?"She then turned to her husband. “You shouldn’t even be talking to her.”"We all know what you did, Grace. You used our son for ritual, and now you want our help

Meanwhile, outside the mansion, the driver sat in the car, watching how Grace's ex-family was bullying her.He saw Grace on her knees, pleading with the family, and could feel the tension from where he sat. His hands gripped the steering wheel anxiously.He knew this was a bad situation, and Grace was in desperate need of help. Without a second thought, he reached for his phone and dialed Bianca’s number.“Hello?” came Bianca’s calm voice on the other end.“Ma’am, it’s urgent,” the driver said in a hushed voice, glancing toward the mansion’s gates. “Ms. Grace is in trouble. She’s at her former in-laws' place, and they’re ganging up on her. They’re refusing to help her with something. I think their son is sick. It’s turning into a real scene, ma’am.”Bianca’s heart skipped a beat. “What? How can they treat a Cloud employee like that?” She could feel anger begin to course through her veins. “Stay where you are, I’m coming.”Bianca hung up the phone, ending the meeting she was having wit

Nathan turned back to Grace, his expression softening slightly as he spoke. “What’s going on, Grace? Why were you begging these people?”Grace took a shaky breath, her voice barely above a whisper. “It’s Brian, sir. He’s sick. The doctors said he needs surgery, and it will cost five hundred thousand dollars. I—I didn’t have anywhere else to go.”Nathan’s jaw clenched, and Bianca’s eyes widened with anger. “So you came to them?” Bianca asked, glancing at the family with disgust. “You came here, to these people?”Grace nodded, tears spilling down her cheeks. “I didn’t know what else to do. They're Brian’s grandparents. I thought—” She swallowed hard. “I thought they might help.”Nathan’s gaze shifted back to the family, his eyes burning with cold fury. “So you knew she was desperate, and instead of helping, you humiliated her?”Thomas, shaking with fear, tried to step forward again. “Lord Cloud, please, it’s not like that...”Nathan took a step closer to him, his eyes never leaving his
THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 170
The moment Grace’s ex-family fully understood what was going on, they knew they had to donate something to at least try and save face. Thomas, once the proud patriarch who had mercilessly rejected her without even a second thought, now looked shattered. His face paled as the realization dawned that he had allowed a woman with powerful connections to slip through his fingers. Elaine, still nursing her bleeding lip, glanced at her husband with panic in her eyes. Their eyes met, and in that moment, **they both immediately knew that they had made a grave mistake.** Without warning, Thomas dropped to his knees and pleaded with desperation. “Grace… please,” he begged, his voice trembling as he crawled toward her, with his hands out. “We were wrong. We… we didn’t understand. Please forgive us.” Elaine also followed, kneeling beside her husband, her face wet with tears. “Grace, my dear,” she pleaded, her voice shaking. “We were blinded by grief… by our son’s death. We didn’t me
THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 171
As Grace left the doctor’s office, she felt so happy.Brian, her baby, was going to be fine.Everything was finally falling into place. Brian was going to get the surgery, and for the first time in years, she would still have over a million dollars to her name.She clutched her phone tightly, ready to transfer the funds and make it official.She walked back toward the waiting room, her hands still shaking from how tense today **had been**.After everything she had been through, after all the suffering and fear, this moment felt good—almost too good to be true.She had secured Brian’s future. She had been saved by a man she barely knew a few months ago, someone most people in Prescott would do anything to have a relationship with, but he had extended his hand to her, of all people.Just as she was about to sit down and begin the transfer, her phone buzzed. Startled, she glanced down at the screen. It was an unknown number. Hesitating for only a moment, Grace answered the call.“Hello?”
THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 172
Grace wiped her eyes as she struggled to stand.She was rejoicing a few moments ago, but now she was full of despair, and her entire body felt weak. She had no idea how she was going to face Brian now.How could she tell him that the money was gone?That the surgery he so desperately needed might never happen?She wiped her face with the back of her hand, she was shaking but she had to composex she had to stay strong for her son. Grace walked slowly to Brian's ward, she had to be there for her son at least. Each step felt heavier than the last; she was weighed down by so much despair.She stood in front of Brian's ward for a moment. She hesitated as she could hear him inside, talking quietly with one of the nurses. His innocent voice sounded tired but hopeful.Grace took a deep breath before opening the door. As she stepped inside, Brian’s face lit up when he saw his mom.His eyes were filled with concern, as he could see his mommy's face was full with despair. “Mummy, what happe

vsGrace sat on the cold hospital floor, her body trembling as she continued to cry. There was no way out. Suddenly, she could hear a loud voice from the television mounted in the corner of the hallway. Grace didn’t pay attention at first, but something about the tone of the announcer’s voice caught her attention. She blinked through her tears, slowly looking up at the TV screen. Her gaze went to the headline at the bottom, which read, “Nationwide Scam: Thousands of Victims Report Entire Savings Stolen in OTP Fraud.” Grace’s breath caught in her throat. Her heart raced as she wiped her eyes and focused on what the news reporter was saying. “This just in,” the announcer said in a grave voice, “Thousands of people across the country have fallen victim to a widespread scam involving fraudulent phone calls claiming to be from banks.” "Victims report receiving calls where they were asked to provide one-time passwords for supposed account verification.” "Upon doing so, the

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

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

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.

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

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.
