THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 63
Before Nicholas could finish, Mr. Alister raised his head slightly, his eyes meeting Nathan’s with a look of respect.“Nicholas,” he said firmly, “How could you say such a thing? Do you have any idea who you are talking to?""Nathan is not an ordinary man; you would be making a grave mistake by underestimating him.”Nicholas’s face contorted with frustration. “That is so absurd,” he spat. “Of course, he is not an ordinary man; he is below ordinary!""His mates are in the psychiatric ward.""Why would you bow to such a man?"Nathan cut him off with a cold, measured voice. “Enough, Nicholas!""We might be business partners, but I will not let you speak to Lord Cloud that way!""Why not?" Nicholas retorted."Just because he has managed to convince you that he is Lord Cloud doesn't mean I will believe him.""I'm not that foolish!""But you are foolish enough not to know that your business partner is telling the truth," Nathan interjected.“Your arrogance has blinded you to reality.”Nicho

Bianca, sensing the urgency in Nathan's voice, immediately said, “Understood, Lord Cloud.""I’ll get right to it immediately.”Nathan hung up, his gaze returning to Nicholas, who was almost trembling. “You still have time to kneel at feet and beg for mercy till my personal assistant calls back.”Nicholas glared back, his anger mingled with fear. “Sparee the nonsense, Please!""So, you think you can intimidate me with your little display? It’s not going to work. I’ll never kneel before you!""Not in this life or the next!""I have already called the police, and so I will expose you for what you really are.”Nathan’s expression hardened. “Your arrogance is quite amusing, Nicholas.""I promise you that the same police you just called will drag you out of here shamelessly.”Mr. Alister, who had been watching the exchange with a mixture of pity and apprehension, stepped forward. “Nicholas, I beg you, you need to listen.""Kneel and apologize now, Lord Cloud might forgive you"Nicholas’s fa

Nathan’s voice rang out even more as he continued to expose Nicholas. “Nicholas Greene, or should I say Sebastian Grey...""in addition to your criminal dealings, there are multiple reports of your violent outbursts and threats against those who are against you.”“You thought you could move here and start a new life like nothing happened, but your reputation precedes you, Nicholas.”“You pretend to be tough, but you are nothing but a criminal and a coward.”He paused, letting the weight of his words sink in, as the room remained tense and silent.The crowd's murmurs grew louder as they expressed their shock.Their phones continued to capture every moment, and the social media buzz became a storm of outrage and condemnation.Nicholas was dumbfounded as he tried to mutter some words, but he could not say anything. He could not defend himself as Nathan uncovered all the truths about him, even information the police had been trying to get for years to incriminate him was in Nathan's palm
THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 66
The crowd, once filled with eager anticipation, now watched in a mix of pity and fascination. The media captured every moment, broadcasting Nicholas’s downfall to a global audience. The murmurs of disbelief and scandal swept through throughout the internet like a wave.Nathan looked down at Nicholas with his icy gaze. “You had your chances, Nicholas. "But you chose to live a life of arrogance and deceit.""Now you must face the consequences.”Nicholas’s eyes filled with tears as he continued to beg. “Nathan, please! I can make things right. I can fix this. Just give me one more chance. I-I’ll do whatever you want, I swear. You don’t have to do this!”His voice was a raw, desperate cry, but Nathan’s resolve was unwavering. The officers stood by, with their hardened expression as they were prepared to carry out their duty without hesitation.Mr. Alister only stood by and watched with a heavy heart. The echoes of Nicholas's cities were worse than Liam and Claire’s desperate pleas the

Nathan’s face remained impassive as the journalists battered him with questions from all angles. “I have no comment on that at this time,” he finally said, his voice calm but carrying an air of authority. “I only came here to shop in the boutique like everyone else. I don't know what you are talking about.”Nathan debunked all their questions smartly with one answer. He was not going to reveal his identity like this; where a criminal was arrested, it had to be something grand. Besides, everyone would find out who he really was tomorrow, so what's the rush?The reporters seemed to be taken aback by his response. Nathan thought it was over, but the journalists were not done. Instead, they quickly changed the direction of their questions. “Can you at least provide a hint about your role in all of this? Why did you expose Nicholas? What’s your connection to him?”The scene outside the boutique grew even more chaotic as the journalists clamored for any information they could get. Na

The officer shook his head apologetically. “I’m afraid not.""With the boutique being part of the investigation, we can’t allow any access to its contents.""It’s standard procedure to ensure that everything remains secure and inaccessible.”Nathan’s disappointment was palpable, but his determination was clear. “I appreciate your position, but this suit is crucial to me. Is there no way for me to get special permission?”The officer’s expression hardened slightly as he reiterated his position. “I’m afraid the rules are the rules. I understand your frustration, but we cannot make exceptions, especially not with the current circumstances.”Nathan sighed, realizing he might need to take a different approach. He reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone. With a steady hand, he dialed a number, his expression a mixture of resolve and urgency. As the call connected, Nathan spoke directly and confidently.“Hello, Commissioner? This is Nathan. I need your assistance with something.”
THE ALMIGHTY LORD CLOUD CHAPTER 69
Daniels couldn't help but cast a sidelong glance at Nathan, who seemed completely at ease. The officer’s mind was filled with questions. Was this really the legendary Lord Cloud, whose identity had been a mystery all these years? But he kept his silence, focusing instead on fulfilling the Commissioner’s orders to the letter. When they reached the entrance of the boutique, Daniels paused, reaching for the key that would unlock the sealed door. His hands moved quickly as he unlocked the door, and with a respectful gesture, he stepped aside, holding the door open for Nathan. "Please, go ahead," Daniels said, his voice almost reverent. Nathan stepped into the boutique, his eyes sweeping over the neatly arranged displays, but he knew exactly what he was here for. He made his way to the back of the shop, where his luxurious suit awaited him. Nathan reached out and carefully lifted it from the rack, running his fingers over the fine fabric as he inspected it. A small sm

“You’re asking me to risk my own reputation to save yours,” Nathan said, his voice low and steady. “Do you understand what you're asking?”Alister nodded frantically, his eyes wide. “Yes, yes, I understand. But I would never ask you to do this if it weren’t the truth. I’m not like Nicholas.""I’m not a criminal. I’m just a man who made a bad business decision, a man who got caught up in something far beyond his control. Please, have mercy on me, Lord Cloud.”Nathan was silent again as his gaze pierced Mr. Alister. He could see the truth in Alister’s.He was genuinely afraid, and he looked innocent. But there was more at stake here than just Alister’s fate.Nathan had to consider his own position to consider, his own power and influence to protect.“What makes you think I’d be willing to put my reputation on the line for you?” Nathan asked finally, his voice as sharp as a blade.Alister’s breath caught in his throat, and for a moment, he couldn’t find the words to respond. Then, with

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
CHAPTER 303
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

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.
CHAPTER 298
Nathan sat in the back of his private car, after he had just delivered the package, there was only one thought in his mind and thst we Vanessa. He reached for his phone, dialing her number with trembling fingers.“Nathan?” she whispered, her voice barely audible. “It’s me,” Nathan said trying to be as calm as possible.“Vanessa, listen to me. Everything is going to be fine. I’ve done what Sebastian asked. This will all be over soon.” Vanessa let out a choked sob. “Nathan… I’m so scared. I can’t—” “Don’t say that,” he interrupted gently but firmly. “You’re the strongest person I know. You’ve been through so much, and you’ve never given up. Don’t give up now.” “But the baby…” she cried, her voice cracking. “I can’t stop thinking about what will happen if—” “Nothing will happen,” Nathan cut in, his voice growing more resolute. “You and our baby will be fine. I swear it. We’ll go home tonight, like every other day. You’ll see Brian, and we’ll all be together again.” Vanessa’s

Nathan froze, his stomach sinking. “You’re out of your mind. That’s billions—” “Precisely,” Sebastian interrupted, his voice sharp. “Half of it, or the bombs go off. One in the stadium where thousands will die, and one under your precious wife’s car. Tick-tock, Mr. President.” Nathan’s free hand clenched into a fist, his nails digging into his palm. “You’re a monster,” he spat, his voice trembling with fury. Sebastian chuckled, “Save the moral outrage. You have thirty minutes to decide.” Nathan’s voice cracked with desperation. “Don’t hurt her. Don’t hurt my wife or my child. I’ll do whatever you want, just leave them out of this.” “Good,” Sebastian said, his voice almost gleeful. “Then start moving, Nathan. Time waits for no man.” The line went dead again.Nathan didn’t waste a second. He turned to his security team, his voice cold and commanding. “Seal off the stadium. No one leaves until every inch is searched. I want bomb squads on the ground now. Move!” His men hes

Cameras flashed as reporters scrambled to capture his eveImportant extended their hands for a quick greeting as he walked pass them. His expression was calm as he gave an occasional nod of acknowledgment to the fans. As Nathan reached the VIP section, an official ushered him to the seat reserved just for him. The announcer’s voice boomed through the speakers, “Ladies and gentlemen, President Nathan Cloud has arrived!” The cheers grew even louder. Nathan sat down, scanning the field. His eyes focused on the players as they were playing with so much determination. Minutes later, as Nathan se
