THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 188
Nathan raised his glass in a silent toast, a wicked grin spreading across his face. “To Darius’s downfall.”They clinked their glasses, savoring the moment.For a few minutes, there was silence as they enjoyed their victory.But Nathan wasn’t done yet. “This is only part one. Now that Darius is tangled in our web, it’s time to move on to the next stage."Then, taking a long, thoughtful sip of his scotch, he leaned in closer, his eyes sharp. “Tomorrow, we make the switch.”James raised an eyebrow, intrigued. “Switch?”Nathan nodded. “Here’s how we’re going to do it. When Darius’s men go to get the money in cash..."James leaned forward, eager for the details.“We’ll have our men outside in the garage, long before they arrive,” Nathan explained. “Once they go into the building to get the cash, one of our men will puncture the back tire.”A sly smile crept across James’s face as he caught onto the plan. “So they are going to think their tire went flat?”“Exactly,” Nathan replied with a n

"Remember, stick to the plan,” James said in a low voice. “We’ll execute this flawlessly."Once we make the switch, we’re out before they even realize what’s happened. Darius will be too blinded by his greed to see it coming.” His eyes scanned the faces of his men.Some of them looked anxious while others were excited. “This is our moment, gentlemen. Let's make Lord Cloud proud.”Nathan stepped forward, a glint of mischief in his eyes. “Darius has spent too long building his empire on the backs of others.""It’s time we take it all away from him, and we do it without leaving a trace.” He gestured toward the suitcases. “Once we pull this off, he won’t know what hit him.”The men nodded, adrenaline coursing through their veins.They moved quickly, loading the suitcases into the back of the van parked at the side of the garage.James took a moment to go over every detail of their plan; they were ready to go!“Let’s roll,” he commanded, sliding into the driver’s seat.The engine purred to

Tom stepped closer to Darius’s men, feigning nonchalance as he surveyed the chaos unfolding around the SUV.The atmosphere was filled with so much tension, but Tom kept a smirk on his face that infuriated the men.“Who the hell are you?” one of them snapped, irritation evident in his voice.“Just your friendly neighborhood mechanic,” Tom replied, chuckling lightly. “I mean, look at you guys! You’d be lost without me.” He could see the muscles in their jaws tense and how frustrated they were.“Why don’t you take your jokes somewhere else?” another man shot back, his voice low and menacing. “We don’t have time for this.”Tom shrugged, feigning indifference. “Hey, I’m just saying, if you want to get out of here, you’ll need a good mechanic like me.""Otherwise, you might be stuck here all night!” He then chuckled again.Finally, one of the men relented, glancing nervously at his friends. “Fine! Just get it fixed already!”“Great choice!” Tom exclaimed, clapping his hands together. “Now,

As Tom rose to his feet, he wiped his hand with his overall.Tom had successfully stalled them long enough for Darius's crew to complete their swap.“Alright, guys! That’s it!” Tom exclaimed. “You’re all good to go!”The men exchanged glances, their faces filled with both relief and confusion. “Thanks, uh… mechanic,” one of them said hesitantly, glancing at Tom. “We really appreciate it.”“No problem at all!” Tom replied, giving them a wide grin. “Just doing my job!”They chuckled reluctantly, and one of the men reached into his pocket and pulled out a wad of cash. “Hey, take this,” he said, thrusting it toward Tom. “You earned it.”Tom raised his hands in protest. “Nah, I won’t. I was just helping you people out; you don’t need to pay me.” He flashed a smile as he rejected the cash. “Besides, it’s all in a day’s work for me!”The men hesitated, glancing at each other before one of them shrugged. “Suit yourself,” he said, pocketing the cash with a nod. “Just glad you were here, man.”

James, his chest swelling with pride, stepped forward, setting down one of the suitcases at Nathan’s feet. He glanced at Tom, and with a nod, he carefully flipped the latches on the case.The lock clicked, and the lid slowly lifted, revealing the stacks of cash inside.Nathan’s eyes sparkled with satisfaction as he gazed at the bundles of money. He let out a low chuckle, his fingers brushing over the bills. “Well, well,” he murmured. “You’ve all done far better than I expected.”The crew exchanged grins, their chests swelling with pride. Each of them felt a thrill at hearing Nathan’s praise. Lord Cloud’s approval was worth more than any amount of money.Tom leaned in with a smirk. “We were this close to them catching on, but I worked my charm.”Nathan’s gaze shifted to Tom, a glint of amusement in his eyes. “Tom, I’ll admit, when I heard about your part in this plan, I had my doubts.”The crew considered Tom to be the unserious one in the group, but he had saved them today. They would

As Darius’s men limped out of his office, they could still feel Darius's fury in their battered bodies.They exchanged tense glances. They had delivered what they thought was a victory, only to find themselves in the midst of a disaster. No one dared speak as they walked, each lost in thoughts of how everything had gone wrong.Finally, one of the men, Malik, broke the silence. “What the hell happened back there?” he hissed, glancing around to make sure that Darius would not hear them. “We had the cash. I counted it myself before we left.”The others nodded in agreement, their expressions a mix of anger and disbelief. “I don’t get it,” another man, Kyle, muttered, rubbing his bruised shoulder. “It was all there. Every dollar. How did we end up with water bottles?”Malik shook his head, trying to piece it together. “This doesn’t make sense. Someone swapped the money with those bottles, but who? And how? We made sure we had eyes on the money at all times.”For a moment, they were silent
THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 194
As the mechanic had them all occupied with the tire change, two other figures appeared in the video, slipping into view from the opposite side of the parking lot.One of them opened the rear of the SUV, his motions swift and practiced. He lifted the suitcase filled with cash and passed it to his partner, who carried an identical suitcase in his other hand.One after the other, in a silent exchange, they swapped the cases, replacing the one with money with a case filled with water bottles.They worked with precision, and in a matter of seconds, the switch was complete. The two men disappeared back into the shadows, as invisible as ghosts.Watching it all unfold, Malik could feel his rage building. They’d been duped, not just by a single man but by a team who had anticipated every step of their plan.“It was a setup from the start,” he growled, his knuckles white as he gripped the edge of the desk.The other men watched in horrified silence, too stunned to speak. It was all there, playi

CHAPTER 305
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.
