Chapter 171Within minutes, Fabian and Silencer arrived at the location and spotted police helicopters outside. King Marcus, his entourage, and Lucas were nowhere to be seen, this sent a shiver down Fabian's spine, inducing panic in him"Where's Lucas? He mustn't die; we have a long journey ahead. Please, save him," Fabian pleaded.The female officer, uneasy with Fabian's reaction, approached him and said, "He's alive and unharmed. Please, allow us to do our job and remain calm."The lead officer took the microphone and issued the command, "Surrender the hostage and yourself! Turn yourself in now!"He repeated the lines three times. King Marcus sighed heavily and said, "Who among you will take responsibility for this boy? You must all surrender yourselves. I will find a way out."One of the boys stepped forward and declared, "I will never surrender without a fight. If I must go to jail, I demand to know my crime. I have no family among those he has held hostage, so I fear him not lik
Chapter 171The officers allowed Fabian and Silencer to go with Lucas, the policemen feared he might not survive and they didn't want to implicate themselves, the image of the local police had been destroyed together with King Marcus's image, if anything happens to Lucas, and the citizens would believe that he was murdered. They connected their radio and made Fabian talk that he was the family of Lucas, and Lucas also said that he was the one that wanted to go with his family, he was no longer in the care of the police. After the announcement for clarification, they drove away. The two policemen sprinted inside and brought out King Marcus. He was immediately handcuffed and they took him out. He looked pathetic! Fabian was directing Solencer to Dr. Ken's hospital but Lucas said they should not take him to the hospital, he mentioned Sheila silently. "Sheila, that is your house, have you shown your identity to her," He nodded in response, he wanted to save the remaining energy he
Chapter 173Sheila could not believe what he said, she cast a menacing gaze on Titan, she believed Titan failed them, he ought to have followed the car and chased them and gotten Lucas back, she never knew everyone was acting on instructions given to them. Titan played the last news on his phone for Sheila, tears besting up in her eyes as she heard Lucas's voice. She was surprised Lucas mentioned family. She was the only person she knew with Lucas, who was taking him home?! She walked outside of the compound to wait for him, the news had been announced for the past hour but Lucas was nowhere to be seen. Everyone in his house was tired of standing, they didn't know what took him so long to get home, and they began to worry if something bad had happened to him. Just when his workers had lost hope, a car appeared and they all rushed to the car, Titan sent everyone back to their duties. Sheila released her hand violently from Kayle's grip and rushed to the car. Silencer was not f
Chapter 174Sheila was happy to meet Fabian, she found him so friendly and they discussed Lucas's negative attitude, Fabian said he was not serious with him as a friend but Sheila didn't want him to complain about him and said he was doing it intentionally, the attitudes was his nature that he should not be angry with him. "Sir, I will be going inside," Sheila wanted to excuse herself "Okay, can I check him anytime," Sure, you can come anytime until he wakes up,""What I mean is can I check on him now?""I'm sorry sir, you can't, he needs to sleep, I have locked his door," Sheila retortedThat is very good, you are security conscious, keep it up,"Sheila felt unease as he said she was security conscious. Does he want to harm him? I have to be very careful, he might be an enemy in disguise," Sheila thought silently and spread a fake smile on her face. Fabian's presence had been causing her heat, she wanted Fabian to leave her house as soon as possible. Fabian noticed her unwelcome
Chapter 175At Cooper Entertainment the rumor of money dropped from their account had never gone away. King Marcus's atrocity let out of the bag. People suspected that his collaboration with Coopers Entertainment was by force as he always did because people could see how Madam Jane and Tristan were gawking at him, they only let out a fake smile if their eyes met The two members of staff were discussing the incident "See, I don't understand King Marcus's intention to put such an amount of money into the movie?" "He was about to take this company, I am sure Cooper knows about how the money disappeared because I could see how Elder Tristan's face was beaming with joy as King Marcus panicked when the money disappeared that day""You are right, I saw him too, but how did they come with the man they used to track him down, I'm sure the man must have died, "She furrowed her brows"He is dead, Coopers must have paid a huge amount of money to buy him from his family before he embarked on
Chapter 176 It's been six days since the incident. Lucas had woken up on the first night but was scratching his head about what to tell Sheila that she would believe without interrogating him further, he had felt better like nothing had happened to him, he heard Fabian and Sheila's voices. They gathered every morning to watch him. Fabian had been coming and going since the incident, this made Sheila worried about the kind of relationship between them, she never trusted Fabian or anyone in the house. Despite Fabian's claim to be his friend, Sheila didn't allow him to be with him without her presence. Fabian kept thinking about what Sheila did but he had no clue because Sheila didn't allow him to come closer to him, he treated him like a stranger. Mr. Blake, Sheila's father was also with them, he had been there for the past days. Lucas was recovering every day, his swollen face had gone after two days and the scars had disappeared. He pestered her daughter to take him to the h
Chapter 177.Mr. Blake scoffed and repeated what Fabian said last, " Trust the process, trust the process as if this is a sort of transaction, we are talking about the relationship, not a commodity or some kind of growth""Relationships are quite transactional too""I'm sure you don't know Lucas, that is why you are saying what you are saying your daughter is his greatest weakness and he is ready to protect her with her last breath,""Where you told what transpired between her and King Marcus's son that made him almost lose his life? You should be told the reason he was in bed for six days,"She said King Marcus's son wanted to have something with her and Lucas stopped him and he had been looking for them since that day until only Lucas was caught, Mr. Man, I don't but this story, I know it is cooked up too,""It is sir, you don't need to buy it, they are inside, you can go and explain everything in detail," Fabian furrowed his brows as he said sarcastically. Mr. Blake was confused,
Chapter 178. Sheila's mind went to Lydia immediately after Lucas went out; she went back to the message she saw her doing the storm, and she wondered if Lydia was referring to the award or another thing. She analyzed how Lucas was caught, and she believed that Lydia might be working with Michael Marcus to capture Lucas. To her, the reason Lucas suffered at the hands of King Marcuse was the humiliation Michael experienced at the Mary Jay party; it was not clear to her more than that. She retrieved her phone and texted Lydia. We came, we saw, and we conquered, always born to be winners.Sheila's father wished he could tell her daughter Lucas's pretense but was taken back in order not to spoil their relationship, and he knew Sheila would suffer it most, so he kept quiet. Lucas and Fabian eventually meet; he is skeptical that Lucas might not remember what happened truly. Then he decides to confirm, "You have missed a lot of news about King Marcus; he had been extradited to New York.
