“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
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
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
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
“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
“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
