“Rest assured that he will never bother you again.” Jordan said.

Diana nodded her head. She trusted Jordan. She then went to her mother. Fishing her phone from her handbag, she called an ambulance to come and take her mother to the hospital, while Jordan escorted Daniel to his room to pack his bags. “Wait for me outside," Jordan said to Ana.

Getting to the room, they walked in on a carpet of drugs. The room looked like it was where the drugs were manufactured. He did not know what type they were, though. “Sit!” Jordan ordered, and Daniel turned to him with shock.

“What? I thought I was going to pack.” He asked in confusion.

“It is not necessary. The trip you are taking does not require you to take anything with you.” Jordan said.

“What are you talking about? Of course, I need to pack my clothes.” Daniel asked. He thought they had an agreement, but the way Jordan was talking contradicted everything he had told Daniel. It seemed he had some other plan.

Just then, a police vehicle stoppe

    “Are you okay, boys?” Jordan greeted his men as he and Ana drove in. He parked the car and stepped out with Ana. He walked back to them.“We are fine, boss. How did it go?” The major said.“It went well. Are you all good?” He asked."Yes, we are. Just a bit hungry. We can have shifts now and have our lunch if that is okay with you.” The major said:.“Ooh, no need for that. We can all have lunch here as we plan for tomorrow.” Jordan said.“Are you sure, boss? Can she cook for all of us? We eat like pigs, you know.” The major teased, looking at Ana.Jordan grinned. “No. She is not here for that. But she will order the food for us. You can tell her what you would like to eat and drink, and she will take care of it.” Jordan said.“Okay, so I think some, wait, how much is your budget? We would not want to exceed your budget.” The major said:.“Ooh, come on!” Jordan laughed that off. He added. “Eat as much as you want. Money is not an issue.” He then pulled out his card and handed it to Ana

    A convoy left Jordan’s home in the morning, taking less than ten minutes to ascend. Some guards were left behind to guard the house. In the first car, Jordan, Ana, and Mariela sat at the back with Jordan’s personal driver, who was none other than the major behind the wheel.The drive was quiet. No tension at all. It was like something was whispering to them that fate had laid the table of their victory before them.After about twenty minutes, things turned from cool in Jordan’s car to restlessness. Mariela just noticed that no one was asking her for directions. What was worse, the car had veered off in the opposite direction from what she expected. “We missed the direction, guys. This is not the way to boss Elias’ mansion. It is the other route that we have left.” Mariela spoke with restlessness and confusion.“We are on the right route. Keep driving, Major!” Jordan said it

  • THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS   PLEADING FOR MERCY

    Jordan finally found his way in. Parking at the parking lot, he looked at Ana and Mariela, who was trembling with fear of what lay ahead of her after screwing things up. “Get down," he ordered.Ana got out through the same door with Mariela, keeping watch on her. Now that she knew Mariela had ruined everything, Ana was afraid that she might try to escape them. She walked close to her as they made their way to Jordan. “What do we do with this one?” Ana implored.Jordan looked at Mariel with rage and contempt, while Mariela evaded their gazes as she waited for her case to be decided. Her ears were paying close attention to Jordan as his words made their way to her ears despite the commotion in the busy place. “Nothing, for now. We will keep her beside us until the end of today. I think she needs to see what we do to our enemies so that she can prepare herself for her own punishment.”A cold jounce of fear skint down Mariela’s spine, almost paralyzing her. It seemed that a stark punishme

  • THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS   COMMOTION

    Jordan turned to Major. “What is the state of your boys?” He asked.“Boss, they said they were able to get in. I just directed them here.” The major responded.Jordan nodded, turning to the officer. “we…” He was just about to speak when a loud noise was heard—screams coming from the direction of the entrance. Immediately, they saw a convoy of speeding cars approaching. They were being driven so recklessly that people had to jump out of the way, causing a very big mess and a loud commotion that disrupted the tranquility of the whole place. Some people even fell into the pools as they feared for their lives.“And here comes the governor himself.” The officer said“What a mannerless moron! The batard does not even have respect for the commoners. How can they drive at such a speed and up to the door of the hotel? What happened to the VVIP parking that he had to endanger people’s lives like this?” Jordan was fuming mad, riled by the reckless actions of the governor.Just then, Jordan’s bo

  • THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS   MEETING THE MEN

    Jordan looked at the men before him with a flat expression, denoting neither danger nor appreciation of what the men were implying. No word was said, but with a single slight eye gesture, Jordan’s men shut the opposing men down, pulling their bodies to the corner. The move was swift and silent, with the help of the silencers.Jordan signaled some of the men to stand guard outside the entrance, their eyes darting all over the area. He forged forward with Major, the two ladies, and a group of ready-for-war soldiers. Each step Jorda took was fueled by the desire to slit the throats of those people. He forged with long, silent strides, his eyes resembling those of a predator as he crept inside the villa and along the dimly lit hallways. A hint of merriment could be heard within, with the faint sounds of faraway laughter and clinking glasses.They reached the door, and since there were only men left, they took him out in a snap. The door was held open for him.His heartbeat quickened as he

  • THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS   CLOSE CALL

    “I am.” Jordan gave a very simple and straight answer.The governor froze beside Mr. Dominick. He had seen the video and heard the horrifying emerging stories about the most-feared rising man. What he did not know was that he was bound to come face-to-face with the man, and that too, that soon. Now, as he faced Jordan, whose expression was too cool to be trusted, he wondered what fate held for him. Would all his dirty laundry be exposed, and he would be left to face public humiliation, disrespect, impeachment, and finally jail?“Governor? You seem too worried." Jordan spoke as he massaged his gun, his eyes searching the governors.The governor took a deep breath and knelt before Jordan; his hands collapsed into prayer mode. “Look,” he began, his voice so faint as he pleaded for his life. “I have absolutely nothing to do with your vengeance. I was not there when these people killed your family and...“So, you knew what they did, huh?” Jordan cut him, and the governor felt a ripple of f

  • THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS   A MAN'S DREADFUL WARNING

    “Boss? What do we do? I think we should get out of here right this minute before the corpses trace us." The major said.Jordan nodded. He knew that was the right thing to do. They had been compromised, and each passing second counted a lot. “Well, I also do not want to be caught. So, can we put this charade aside and leave this place before we all end up behind bars? I am sure, Mr. Rivers, you do not want to go to jail this soon before you complete your mission.” Mr. Dominick chipped in, sampling a ray of hope for his survival. In his mind, he thought he had a chance to escape Jordan’s wrath now that the police had been notified. And hearing them agree about leaving stroked his glee.Jordan turned to the oblivious man, and until Dominick saw the look in Jordan’s eyes, he didn’t know how wrong he was to think that he had even just a slim chance to live. He froze as Jordan pointed a gun at his head. His breath was cut short as he looked at the weapon that was about to send him to the ne

    The night air was harsh and chilly as Jordan and his men stepped out. Jordan's demeanor was determined as he led his crew away from the chaotic scene while navigating through the shadows. His expression stayed unwavering, and the icy determination driving his chase was reflected in his gaze.Police sirens sounded in the background, getting louder as they got closer to the site. “Jordan? What the heck happened? Why are the police here?” Officer Adamson, after hearing the police sirens, met Jordan at the entrance. He looked worried, just like anyone in his shoes would be. He had summoned all his team and some of Jordan’s men who were outside.“I will explain later. Right now, we need to get out of here ASAP! They cannot catch us.” Jordan responded in a low-key voice.Officer Adamson thought for a second. Then, oblivious to his identity being compromised, he spoke. “You guys leave through the back. I will distract them when they get here so that you can escape. But be fast.”“I am afraid

In addition to officially opening The Rivers Group of Martial Arts' newest location, the ribbon-cutting ceremony signified the end of a journey that had passed through darkness and emerged into the light of mutual empowerment and progress.Jordan stood proudly in front of the assembly and spoke to them. "Our slogan stands true today as it did when we started: The Rivers Group of Martial Arts is not just a school to teach martial arts, but a community for empowerment and growth, both as a community and individually." His statements reverberated with authenticity, capturing the spirit of their group's objective."And so, ladies and gentlemen, here I present to you the last, as of now, branch of The Rivers Group of Martial Arts."

    THE ASTONISHING BRAVERY

    The following day, Ana woke up in his old home, the De’luka mansion. Ricotchetting her eyes. Memories lingered—a combo of both good and bad memories. She had slept off there with her entire crew to prepare for the burial.“Are you ready? You can stay back if you want. I will bring the body here.” Jordan said, giving her a morning hug after strolling into her room.Ana sampled everything that Jordan’s body was bleeding on her—the solace, the heat, the comfort. Everything. She appreciated his comfort and his gesture. She then pulled away, and Jordan kept her hands in his. “I appreciate this, Jordan, but I have to do this.”“Are you really sure?” Jordan emphasized."Come on, Jordan! Do I look like I am showing signs of a mental breakdown or something? I am perfect. Besides, you and I know the story behind this man. I'm all good.” She said.Jordan nodded his head. “Alright. I never said that you were about to break down, by the way. I know you are strong. Even more than I am.”‘Yeah, yeah

    BAD NEWS

    “I guess so. We can all say that.” The officer affirmed.A few chatters filled the room for a long time. Who would have thought that a once vigilante group could be saluted by the government, huh?Jordan cleared his voice, speaking to the officer, although everyone was keen. “Whether the government recognizes me or not, I don’t care. But I know how much you loved your job. I also know that you like it, and it is my hope that you have no regrets whatsoever for those few days that you and your boys have been members of this family. I want you to know that I cannot hold you back. If they want to give you back your position, please don’t feel obliged to remain with us. You deserve that position.”Officer Adamson looked at Jordan with so much appreciation and gratitude. “Regrets? What is there to regret about being part of this great community, Jordan? I felt honored that I was lucky to have a chance to meet you all and to partake in your just missions. But, like you said, I feel the need

    THE PROGRESS OF THE GROUP

    The group, which had now become a family, pushed itself into the audacious project of opening martial arts schools in the following weeks, their unwavering dedication transforming dreams into concrete accomplishments. With incredible vigor, resolve, and a sense of purpose that permeated each movement they took, Jordan's vision came to life in that brightly illuminated room.Securing a central location for their flagship martial arts school was the crew's initial action. They converted a large warehouse, which had previously served as a symbol of corruption, into a center for empowerment, training, and discipline after extensive reconnaissance and planning sessions. When they held their first courses, the sound of kicks and swishing-trained moves filled the air inside those walls.With her excellent organizational abilities, Sarah oversaw the administrative side, making sure that all licenses, registrations, and marketing campaigns were completed. She proved to be the mainstay of the o

    THE FATE OF THE GROUP

    As the soft hues of morning began to seep through the windows, the room, once ablaze with celebration, now held a serene stillness. Jordan and his crew, draped in the comforting shadows of a night well spent, found themselves resting on makeshift seats, their weariness a testament to the battles fought and won.The sunlight painted a gentle tableau, revealing the subtle lines of fatigue etched on each face. Yet, amidst the quietude, a sense of unity prevailed. Jordan, observing the camaraderie that had evolved in the past hours, felt a renewed purpose bubbling within him. This wasn't just a crew; they were a band of individuals who had weathered storms together and emerged stronger.Looking at Major, he knew that he had a question to tackle. They looked somehow confused about what to do next, and he knew he owed them an explanation, at least for the sake of their sanity. He remembered how he and Major’s group became participants. Initially, they were just his hired bodyguards, but ove

    CELEBRATING VICTORY

    ‘‘Huuu!” Noises crackled in the house of Jordan as the members heaved out their tiredness, sampled in the aura of victory, and rested their weapons on the tables as they took their seats. It was almost 4 in the morning, but the night echoed with sounds for the next few hours. Their faces were smeared with soot and sweat from the tough battle they had fought and, by God’s grace, won.“This calls for a big celebration!” Jordan spoke, pulling Ana beside him as he rested on his signature seat of authority. “Mariela? Could you make us something delicious for us?”Mariela nodded in agreement. “After emerging triumphant, you all deserve a special treat. I had made arrangements before we left. I will be back in a sec.”They all made sweet sounds of appreciation that sent Mariela off to the kitchen with a smile on her face.Soon enough, she was making hasty back-and-forth tours to and from the kitchen with trays of mouthwatering shawarmas. Then the drinks followed, and everyone wanted nothing

    THE SENSE OF VICTORY

    As Jordan and his group crouched in the shadows, staring at the far-off warehouse where the covert conflict had taken place, the night sky hung thick with an oppressive still. An overwhelming feeling of unease permeated the air as they anticipated reaching the pinnacle of their unwavering quest for justice.Abruptly, a menacing gleam illuminated the horizon, illuminating Jordan's team members' features with elongated shadows. From the warehouse, flames shot up, licking the darkness with an abysmal embrace. The blast echoed through the still air like a mighty cry of vengeance.Jordan clinched his hands and tensed his jaw, watching the conflagration with a bleak determination mixed with joy. The warehouse collapsed under the weight of its own secrets; it had previously been a center of corruption and dishonesty. His transgressors were being burned into charred souls. He could imagine them weeping in pain as the wildfire mercilessly devoured them.Jordan whispered, "That's it," his voice

    NO DEAL

    “Names? What names, Jordan?” Mr. Elias asked in confusion.Jordan, with a steely gaze, had no time to waste. He needed to get to the heart of the issue as fast as he could. His voice was firm as he spoke. "The names of your supporters. The high-ranking officials who are protecting."The alliance members exchanged uneasy glances, a palpable scent of impending doom slapping at their nostrils. How could they comply with Jordan's request? Revealing the identities of those wielding formidable power felt like signing their own death warrants. And death was what they were trying to escape by all means. How could they negotiate for survival and sell themselves to the devil in the same way?“Jordan, please understand that we cannot do that. It is too dangerous for us. Besides, why do you want the names?” Mr. Elias replied, attempting to mask the tension in his voice.Jordan's eyes narrowed, his frustration bubbling beneath the surface. "I need those names to expose the corruption that is eatin

    NEGOTIATIONS

    Jordan looked at Elias and his meanness. He could read through their minds. He knew exactly what they wanted. And he loved their stupidity.Elias gazed at Jordan and spoke with a stern voice without a single tinge of wavering in it. “You are wiser than this, Jordan. I know you know what I mean.”Jordan shook his head and read a memo that said, ‘I know, but I want to hear that crap from your stinking mouth itself’! “No! Please enlighten me, Elias! I might be getting carried away.” Jodan spoke.Elias even managed to smirk, even though he could not tell whether Jordan was toying with his mind or not. He spoke. "Jordan, all I am suggesting is that we can settle this amicably. You don’t have to betray your noble parents by becoming a bloody murderer. Well, if it is revenge that you want, your parents are gone, and you can’t bring them back. Don’t even kill us. I have got something that will surely interest you."Jordan, unmoved, eyed Elias with a steely gaze, his expression portraying no
