THE BILLIONIARE'S RISE TO STARDOM CHAPTER FOURTEEN: DEALING WITH JOHN.
Lucian, blinded by rage, rushed to the floor and pulled John roughly to his feet. He landed a blow on his cheeks and without giving him a chance to recover, landed another blow. "You bastard?!" He yelled."H…ow…what the fuck is going on here?" John stammered, confused."Are you still talking?!" Lucian raged, about to deliver another blow when a hand stopped him from behind.Thomas held his hands. "That's enough, Master Lucian. Allow us to handle him.""Bullshit!' Lucian scoffed but pushed John away in disgust, and ran to his sister.She was already untied by his men, but she was visibly shivering. He took her wrists and noticed the red deep lines around them. Her hair was rough and scattered, no doubt she had struggled with the bastard.He gritted his teeth as his hands reached out to her forehead, feeling the cut and the blood.It made him mad."Are you okay?" He whispered fiercely.Rose tightened her grip on his hands. "H…how are you alive? He had threatened to kill you if I didn't

Lucian's brows pulled into a frown. He was not sure he had heard right. "What did you just say?!""He injured one of the men with a hidden knife and broke free. We ran after him, but he was too fast." Thomas bowed."No!" The word exploded from Lucian like the blast from a gun. He charged towards Thomas and grabbed his shirt, his eyes darkening. "Are you joking right now?!""I'm so sorry, boss. I'll make sure to catch him soon. I slacked because the injury of one of our men was severe. He has been taken to the hospital."Lucian scoffed lightly and released Thomas. "Is he going to be okay?""Yes. I'll check up on him later,""I need you to find John this instant. Someone like him should not be allowed to breathe freely.""Yes, Master." Thomas bowed and trotted out of the room.At that instant, Lucian's phone beeped and he looked into it. Then, slowly, he turned to face his sister."We have to go now, Rose. Dad's waiting…"Rose nodded and followed him without a word. She had a blank look

Lucian's brows pulled into a dark frown as he climbed down from his limousine. He tucked a strand of hair behind his ears and brought out his phone to dial a number.After the third ring, the line connected and Anthony's voice reached him from the other end."Mr Anthony, is it a deal now?""Yes, Master, everything is set,""Good, and the visuals?""It's intercepted and ready,""Where are you now?"Anthony scoffed lightly. "I'm trying to get out of this hellhole. I'm still stuck in the media room,"Lucian smirked. "Use your wits to get out of there safely." He paused briefly, staring into nothing. "It's time to deal with John…""Master Lucian, don't you think you should focus more on being the president of Howards instead of…"Lucian ended the call, not wanting to hear more. Nobody was permitted to distract him in his revenge mission. It felt like a sin to allow people who had hurt him to go scot-free without teaching them a lesson or two.With his phone screen serving as a mirror, he

Anthony swiped through the screen of his phone and handed it to Lucian. "That's an article from today,"Lucian read the words out loud. "Another tragic death hits X Tech distribution this afternoon as an employee, a thirty-three-year-old woman was mysteriously reported dead after collapsing at work. This is the seventh death X Tech distribution has recorded in three months. The question now is; could X Tech be responsible for all the mysterious deaths of its employees, or are these all natural deaths…?"Lucian paused, sucking in a deep breath. His eyes were rolling in their sockets as he tried to reach a conclusion. X Tech Distribution was a leading company when it came to the production of gold and pearls.It was where his sister had worked in the past. How were they connected? And why did the name of the company sound so awfully familiar?"What's the name of the owner of this company?""Her name is Summer Madison. I believe you know her, she is your….""Ex-mother-in-law." Lucian com

Lucian rang the doorbell thrice and waited for a response, but none came. He exhaled. Was Silas inside? Or was he pretending not to have heard his door?He rang the bell again and followed it with a knock, still no response. There was a thick silence from within, not even the slightest of sound.Weird!His hand reached for the door knob and it gave way without effort. In a moment, his eyes took in the poorly arranged living room with scattered furniture and an old cooking pot left without caution in the middle of the room.But that was not the reason he was here."Silas!" He called out, but only the echo of his voice reached out to him as a response, as if daring him.He hurried to the bedroom and right there, Silas lay on the floor, his face pale and flushed."Silas!" Lucian yelled and hurried over.There was a small whitish substance at the corners of his lips. A pool of blood had gathered under his back. Lucian felt his pulse. He was still breathing, but very faint.A surge of trem

"It hurts," Silas whimpered."Hey, man, you're okay," Lucian said, tapping Silas gently on the shoulders."It all began like a dream." Silas scoffed, staring at the ceiling. "I thought I had my dream job and that I could finally experience what it meant to be happy, but then, within the snap of a finger, I lost everything. My life raced back to zero, it was like I had never known joy…"Lucian shook his head. "I understand, that's why I'm here. How about we bring them down together?"At the question, Silas jolted from the bed, causing the IV fluid wrapped around his arm to jerk in succession. He gave Lucian a dreadful look."No, I'll not be a part of that. Do you think that ordinary people like us can fight such a powerful company like X Tech? Come to your senses, man!"Lucian flashed a smile. "We never can tell until we try,"Silas scrutinized him. "Who paid for my surgery? And why do I feel like you're different from the Lucian that I know? It's like you became a man of authority ove
THE BILLIONIARE'S RISE TO STARDOM Chapter Twenty: Meeting with Mr. Jang.
The cab dropped Lucian in front of the hotel and he climbed down, a rush of air escaping from his mouth. He tucked a strand of hair behind his ear and walked inside the building.As he walked past the employees at the counter, each bowed their head and greeted him politely. He smiled and responded to the greeting, careful not to draw too much attention to himself.The fewer people who knew about his identity, the better.Soon, he approached the VIP lobby and saw a group of men standing watch at a door. At his arrival, three of the men walked up to him in a threatening manner. They look wild and untamed."Are you Lucian?" One of them asked and he nodded sparingly."Surrender yourself to be checked,"Lucian forced a polite smile and lifted his hands slowly to his head. They searched him thoroughly before leading him to a room where Jang sat on a couch, sipping from a glass of wine.At the sight of Lucian, he dropped the wine on the small table in front of him and smiled. "Forgive me, bu

As if he had been waiting all his life for the question, Jang said. "They trapped me,""Continue," Lucian's sharp voice commanded, causing Jang to jerk in fear."I was always a huge investor in X Tech and they were planning to make me partner, but everything dulled down the day I found out that Summer was illegally dealing in…."Jang stopped and bit his lips. He looked at Lucian and when he could not withstand the dark stare, he lowered his head."Why is he ashamed?" Lucian thought. Ridiculous, it was not like he was a part of the illegal trade, or was he?"I'm listening," Lucian said, even though he knew what Jang would say next."Summer was illegally trading fake weeds, and the chemicals were killing the employees. I was scared that their cover would blow up, so I tried to talk Summer into shipping the stuff to a different location where the chemicals would not affect the people negatively, but she frowned against it,""Who were they shipping these drugs to?""Mafia agents," Jang wh
