James continued, "Before Vanessa’s parents died, they had arranged a contract marriage between her and Henry Smith, Liam's younger brother.""Her family was in a dire situation at that time, and the marriage was intended to save their failing business."Nathan raised an eyebrow. "Henry Smith?"Nothing good could come from that family. Henry was even more arrogant than Liam."Correct," James replied. "The only way Vanessa would be able to avoid the marriage was if she married into a more powerful family than the Smiths.It’s likely that this is one of the reasons she’s been so determined to build Royal Corp’s success."Nathan took a few minutes to process the information.He wondered why Vanessa had shown up at Grandfather Wilson's birthday the other day, offering him a deal to join Royal Corporation. She was indeed determined to get herself out of the contract marriage.James then pulled out a document from the briefcase he was carrying."Just as Vanessa mentioned at Grandfather Wils

Henry interrupted, his tone condescending. "Then you’ve been wasting your time and resources on someone who is useless.""It's time you face the truth: there is no one coming to save you!"Henry's smirk grew even wider. "Not even Nathan, a mere impostor.""The real Lord Cloud would not even look in the direction of the Royal Corporation."He let out a harsh laugh, turning on his heel and storming out of the office, slamming the door behind him.The echoes of his mocking laughter lingered in the room, leaving Vanessa and her assistant, Laura, in stunned silence.Vanessa stood still despite the humiliation. She felt more determined than ever.Vanessa refused to be deterred by Henry’s taunts. She had faith in Nathan; no matter what anybody said, her faith would not waver.Nathan had singlehandedly saved the Royal Corporation from bankruptcy, despite the board of executives consisting of the best graduates from prestigious universities around the world.If there was a way to secure Lord C

The tension in the room was at its peak, and the barman’s unease was becoming more and more obvious.Nathan’s voice remained calm but cold. “I insist. It’s just a drink, after all. It’ll help you unwind from the long shift,” Nathan said.The barman hesitated, his face growing paler. He placed the glass back on the table with a shaky hand. “I really shouldn’t. It’s against my policy to drink on the job.”Nathan’s suspicion deepened. He could see the barman’s anxiety and knew that something was wrong. “Is that so? Come on, you are a barman."" I’ve never encountered a barman who turns down a drink from a guest. "Besides, I am your boss, and I am giving you the go-ahead. Have the drink,” Nathan insisted as he leaned back into his chair.James, still observing closely, shifted his stance, ready to intervene if anything went wrong.He subtly signaled for the hotel’s security to be on alert, understanding the gravity of the situation.The barman’s composure was slipping.He glanced nervous

The manager's gaze was locked firmly on the barman, his features contorted with a fiery rage that burned in his eyes.With a tone dripping with accusation, he addressed the esteemed Lord Cloud, "Forgive me for barging in just like that, Lord Cloud, but this barman here is nothing but a fraudulent imposter who has made his way into the hotel and is trying to harm you!"Nathan's brow furrowed, a flicker of suspicion igniting within him. He was not entirely surprised. This was the very same barman who had just moments ago attempted to serve him a drink that even he himself refused to drink. "Is that so?" Nathan asked, turning to the barman with a sense of urgency.The accused barman recoiled, his expression morphing into one of desperation as he cried out, "That's simply not true! I have no idea what you're talking about!"The manager's lips curled into a sneer as he cut the man off, barking, "Save your lies, you fool! You're nothing but an imposter and you will be exposed right here!"
THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 44
The fake barman’s pleas grew more frantic. “I don’t know! I don’t know their names, I swear! I’m just a pawn in this—”The manager’s face was a mask of cold fury.He motioned to the bodyguards, who moved forward with grim determination. “If he won’t talk willingly, we’ll have to find other methods to extract the truth from him.”Nathan raised a hand, signaling them to halt.“No. We’ll give him one last chance. But if he doesn’t cooperate, we’ll get the information out of him, no matter the cost.”The fake barman’s eyes were wide with fear, and his breath came in ragged gasps. “Please, I don’t want to die! I’ll tell you whatever I can, just don’t—”Nathan cut him off with a steely gaze. “This is your final opportunity. Speak now, or face the consequences.”The fake barman looked around in panic, his mind racing. “I—I really don’t know! They didn’t give me any details, just said to serve you the poisoned drink!”The fake barman continued to lie, hoping that they would buy his deception.

THROWBACK TO THE NIGHT NATHAN REGAINED HIS MEMORIES"Mother? Mother, where are you?" Nathan's grip tightened around his cherished teddy bear as he whispered softly, weaving through the bustling crowd of the mall, his eyes scanning for Victoria, his mother-in-law.She had brought him earlier to buy him some toys and instructed him to wait for her, but hours had passed, yet she had not returned.Nathan was always maltreated by his in-laws, but he had hoped today would be different as Victoria promised to take him shopping.It seemed she had abandoned him. "Mother? Where are you?" he called out again, his voice tinged with fear.A few shoppers glanced his way, but none stopped to help. Nathan’s heart raced as he wandered, the anxiety building in his chest.He felt the sting of tears in his eyes, and his grip on the teddy bear tightened.Nathan searched all the sections of the shopping mall, but he still could not find Victoria.He sat on the couch in one of the sections, crying his eyes
THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 46
Nathan's eyes narrowed as he fixed the fake barman, who was sweating profusely and had some parts of his body bleeding.“So what you're telling me is that it was you and your gang who attacked me that night?” he asked, his voice dripping with cold fury.The fake barman flinched under Nathan's withering gaze, still feeling the lingering pain from the cars ripping him apart.He nodded furiously, with sweat and blood dripping down his face.“Y-yes, sir. That’s right,” he stammered.“The woman who hired us said she would abandon you at the mall, and the moment we spotted you, we were to kill you,” the barman continued, his voice quivering. “Unfortunately, we couldn’t finish the job that day, and now she’s ordered us to complete it.”James stepped forward, his expression dark. “So someone paid you to kill my master, and you accepted?” he said, the accusation hanging heavy in the air.The fake barman cowered, sensing the danger emanating from the two men. “P-please, sir, I had no choice!"

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.
