Luz quickly turned towards the machine, huge balls of sweat dripping down his tender skin.“What are the results of the analysis? Report,” Alex said, also walking towards the machine.“DNA result came out positive. With 99.9% count. This can only mean that sample B belongs to either the child's father or mother. Congratulations to them,” the laboratory system announced.Luz shivered, huge drops of tears rolling down his cheeks. If magic is not to be trusted, what about advanced science? He had been carefully watching Alex throughout the process and can swear that nothing shady took place.“Dad! You are really my father! How is this possible?” He whispered, falling to his knees, tears and snot running down his face.Alex knelt before him, pulling him into his arms, while silently rubbing his back as he allowed his son to vent.After a few minutes, Luz finally recovered his composure, and wiped his face with the edge of his sleeves, sniffing at intervals.“How did you find out?” Luz whi
“At the moment, I don't know. But I'm sure I will figure it out, just give me some time. We need to go back to the twins, Ariella would be screaming and hitting the door at this point. We have been gone for so long,” Alex whispered, freeing himself from Luz's grasp.Luz nodded and followed him, watching as he locked the door, using multiple security systems. “Daddy, where are you?”The sound of Ariella's dramatic knocks and shouts welcomed them the moment they returned to the study.“I knew it!” Alex muttered under his breath, quickly dashing to the door.A sweating and breathless Ariella greeted him before the door, making him sweep her up in his arms.“Why did you lock us out?” Ariella asked, feeling aggrieved.“I'm sorry dear, I thought you both will be busy playing video games,” Alex whispered, his eyes darting to the game set where Ariel and Aridan were hitting it out with maximum concentration.“It's been an hour, I'm sick of the video games! I have been knocking for a while, w
Alex stood before the monitors in the control tower, watching the videos before him.“It was Hailey Campbell who instructed the landlord to throw them out of the house,” Aridan whispered, checking his tablet phone.“What information do you have about her?” Alex asked, sitting down on the throne beside him.“She's Lady Eleanor's cousin from the side branch. She's an ambitious model, who had set her sights on the Campbell family's businesses, orchestrating various plans to send Eleanor who was her main rival away. However, lady Eleanor's competence always ensured that her plans were frustrated. She finally got her chance when lady Eleanor fell pregnant with the twins, pulling some strings alongside her supporters in the Campbell family to kick her out, stripping her parents of their powers. They became equivalent to poverty stricken rags after the incident. It wouldn't have created much problems since Lady Eleanor was well educated and experienced. However, she also pulled strings behin
“There are a few nasty things we discovered about the Winthrop family. They are taking drastic steps to ensure that our efforts to shake up Winthrop's businesses won't affect them much. They are even going as far as laundering money, to siphon illegal funds into the businesses. Karen also kills any employee that stumbles upon any inappropriate scene, or makes them disappear. They also made provisions to ensure that nothing negative will be announced about the Winthrops on the news. The incidents to sabotage their dealings were also tightly sealed. And they increased their security with well trained assassins. Karen seems to have access to a demonic organization. All the assassins employed cultivate dark energies. Karen Winthrop also seems to have someone powerful backing him up. And most importantly, he's desperately searching for you. He has placed a billion dollar bounty on your head on different top assassin organizations; including the dark web, dragon court, and blood temple. He'
“Don’t prepare cars that will easily connect us to the heaven's mandate army. Or any of our military organizations. Even a fool in power will be able to decode my identity if I make use of my cars,” Alex warned.“Yes sir, I won't take any limited edition cars along, or your special military productions. I will only take along the average luxury vehicles,” Raz quickly reaffirmed, before turning around to do Alex's bidding.Alex stood up, his eyes glinting maliciously as he remembered everything he had to go through in the hands of his so-called family.“Even if I tear them limb by limb, it won't be enough to compensate me for what they did.” Alex muttered, looking through the millions of surveillance monitors before him.He picked up a special lens and left the office, securely locking it behind him. Alex entered his room to take a hurried bath, before dressing up in an outfit made by one of his personal designers.He stood before the mirror, watching the handsome man who hid the dark
Alex smiled at the scene before him. “Activate the special task function, clear all obstacles. The first car should go on full tempo, while the rest follow up with moderate energy,” Alex instructed.At once, the cars revved up their engines, frightening those lying on it, or on the ground before it. But against all expectations, a heavy wind flew out from the cars, pushing the crowd back, and just like in the Red Sea, a wide path was created, enabling the cars to speed through. Lots of the paid actors kept trying to fight the wind and throw themselves before the car as they were instructed, to no avail.After the cars were safely parked before the entrance, the wind from the exhaust pipes gently receded.But those trying to fall down and feign an accident couldn't do it no matter what. There seemed to be an invisible strand of energy forcing those in the outer peripherals to remain standing, till the space closed up, as the people in the crowd began to push each other, attempting to
At once, the crowd got swept up into the frenzy, murmuring with all their hearts about the genius murderer before them.“Wow, he's already a hardened criminal. If he killed his grandfather, he probably also killed the pregnant woman,”“That's why they say looks can be deceptive. Who would have thought that such a devilish, cold heart would exist beneath that handsome face? His handsome and innocent looks are just veils to hide his evil nature.” Another muttered.Karen smiled in satisfaction, same with the masked people beside him.“I would like to see how he gets out of this since he's so smart. Every family in the upper echelon knew when he was kicked out, and the reason he was sent away. Whether he did it or not, if we said he did it, then he must have done it. That's how the world works, it's too bad he's as naive as his foolish mother,” a voice belonging to a woman in her late thirties or early forties said, seemingly satisfied with the way things were going.“You all like to pedd
Alex and his guards quickly squat down, while Raz swirled around, making the bullets miss his hands.Everyone in the crowd began to shout, causing pandemonium.The policemen quickly abandoned the miscreants they were arresting, and quickly took cover, searching for the culprits.A staccato of gunshots went off once more, in Alex's direction, making the crowd roar in panic.“Protect him!” Raz ordered and the guards quickly pushed Alex inside the vehicle.Alex smirked and shook his head, did they imagine that ordinary bullets would kill him?Assassins? What a joke.“Check in the four o'clock direction, there's a sniper hiding there,” Alex instructed through the mic he was wearing on his wrist.Alex relaxed back in the car, watching the crowd that Karen hired as they ran away, stomping on some unlucky ones in the process.Alex chuckled wickedly, as he watched some people being trampled to death.“I hope the money he paid you all would be enough to pay for your medical fees after receivin
