THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 179
As Darius lay crumpled on the ground, barely able to lift his head, he could hear the sounds of sirens in the distance. The crowd turned as flashing red and blue lights brightened the streets. Within moments, a convoy of police cars arrived, and the commissioner of police, a tall, broad-shouldered man with a stern face, stepped out of his vehicle, flanked by several officers. The commissioner’s eyes locked onto Nathan—Lord Cloud—and the bloody, beaten figure of Darius at his feet. His face twisted with concern. “Lord Cloud,” the commissioner called out, his voice firm but wary. “This has gone far enough. Release him.” They had been watching the whole ordeal on social media; in fact, the whole world was watching. Nathan didn’t move. He stood tall, unmoved by the commissioner’s arrival. His cold gaze remained fixed on Darius before he finally turned to face the commissioner. “You want me to hand him over?” Nathan’s voice was calm, but the underlying threat was unmistakable.

Darius turned to grin at the commissioner.The commissioner was a lot of help to him, even though he did not want to accept it.Without him, they would be on their way to the station for several rounds of questioning.The commissioner didn’t respond to his annoying smile.He did not like Darius for his arrogance, and the way he smiled even in the worst situations pissed him off.But he was a very useful tool for doing his dirty work; Darius was sneaky and almost impossible to catch.Still, he hated that he had to save him every now and then.The car eventually pulled up in front of the commissioner’s large, secluded house on the outskirts of the city. The officers exited first, dragging Darius out with them. He stumbled, barely able to stay on his feet, but, as expected, he was still holding on to his arrogance.Inside the house, the commissioner led him into his study and shut the door.He turned to Darius, “Sit,” he ordered, nodding to a nearby chair.Darius eased himself down, win

She blinked, utterly stunned, her mouth opening slightly in shock. She had never expected him to offer such a gesture, let alone command it. “Nathan…I…I don’t know what to say. That’s…that’s too much. We can’t just…move in…”Nathan’s gaze hardened, his tone brooking no argument. “Grace, look at the way Darius treated you in front of everyone. Nobody would dare lay a hand on you or Brian if you’re under my roof.”Grace was filled with so much gratitude. She nodded slowly, her voice shaky. “Thank you…Nathan. I can’t tell you what this means to me.”Nathan’s gaze softened again, and he reached out, gently resting a hand on her shoulder. Grace’s face brightened, and she wiped away her tears. “My baby is going to be so happy when he wakes up.”Nathan’s jaw tightened as he recalled everything that had led them here—the money Grace had lost to Darius, who preyed on the innocent. Darius may think he has won, but this was far from over. He was going to make Darius kneel and beg for mercy very

Nathan chuckled, bending down to lift Brian into his arms. “No, Brian,” he said gently. “You’re the real hero here, staying strong for your mom.""You'll grow up to be a very strong man, Brian."Brian’s eyes were filled with admiration. “Just like you!”Nathan chuckled, his expression softening, moved by the boy’s gratitude. He set Brian down, ruffling his hair. “Well, we’re family now. And family always looks out for each other, right?”Grace approached, a small, grateful smile on her lips. “Nathan…thank you,” she whispered. “For everything.”Nathan met her gaze, nodding in understanding. “You don’t have to thank me, Grace. This is your home now, for as long as you want it to be.” He placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "No one will ever threaten you or Brian again."Grace blinked back tears. She had cried a lot over the past few days, yet somehow, she still had more tears in her eyes. But she held them back, knowing her struggles were over.Brian tugged at Nathan’s sleeve, look

After dinner, there was still laughter in the air as Vanessa enjoyed playing with Brian so much; they got along easily, and Brian liked her from the moment he saw her.Vanessa even prepared his favorite dish, which made him love her even more.Nathan made his way down to his private study. He settled into his leather armchair, thinking of a plan to deal with Darius.Not long after, the door opened, and James stepped inside, his eyes sharp and focused.Nathan nodded, gesturing for him to sit.“Darius has played with fire," Nathan began in a cold tone."...scamming people like Grace, stealing everything from families who had nothing... It’s time he felt the consequences of his greed.”James leaned forward as he noticed a smile creeping onto Nathan's lips. “I’m assuming you have a plan?”Nathan nodded, his gaze steely. “Darius thinks he’s untouchable because of his connections, but I’ll show him why I am the most feared man in all of Prescott.""We’re going to hit him where it hurts most
THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 184
Nathan watched closely as James skillfully planted the seeds of greed.The calculated charm, the flattery—it was working.A silence stretched on the line, and Nathan could imagine Darius weighing his options.Finally, Darius spoke up, his voice filled with skepticism, but he could not deny he was very tempted.“If this is some kind of trick, Carter, you’ll regret it. I don’t take kindly to people wasting my time, and you’ll pay with your life if you think you can toy with me.”James didn’t flinch and spoke even more confidently. “I understand, Mr. Darius. I’m also putting my own money on the line here.""Let’s meet in person, at a place of your choosing, so I can prove to you that I’m genuine.""I know a man of your caliber doesn’t make deals lightly. I'm prepared to show you how serious I am.”Darius considered this, then spoke slowly. “Fine. Tomorrow. The Black Orchid, 3 p.m. Come alone. And you’d better bring the money.”“Of course,” James replied smoothly. “I wouldn’t dream of was

The next morning, outside, several of Nathan's most trusted men were busy loading up three hundred thousand dollars in cash—the money they were going to use to trap Darius. Each stack of bills was carefully stowed into sleek black suitcases, filling the back seat of the luxury car.Nathan stood by the car, watching his men. He knew this was a high-stakes game, and he was determined to win. Today, their plan would be set in motion. They would pull Darius into their web, and by the time he realized it, there would be no escape.James walked over, wearing a perfectly tailored suit that gave him the air of someone powerful, someone Darius would never dare to question.Nathan gave him a long look, then nodded. "You look the part," he said with a faint smirk. “Make sure you keep up that confidence. Darius will be watching closely for any sign of weakness.”James adjusted his cufflinks, determination in his eyes. “I know how to play his game, don’t worry.""I’ll show him exactly what he wa
