“I think he passed out sir.” one of the men keeping Charles said.

The leader of the group walked to Charle’s almost lifeless body which was on the floor. He studied Charles and motioned to one of the men to check him.

The shortest man in the group fell to his feet and placed his head on Charles’s chest. “He's alive but his heart is weak.”

The leader turned to the guard who reported with a clenched jaw. “What did you do to him?”

“I just gave him a few punches boss and then he fell and blacked out. I guess he was already weak before I touched him.” the man defended.

The leader turned to address the men in the room. “Now listen to me all of you. The orders from the boss were clear. We are to torture him and get the truth of out him not kill him. Do you understand?”

“Yes sir.”

He turned to the short man. “Do all you can to revive him.”

“Got it, boss.”

Meanwhile, Charles has been in their custody for two days. He had been subjected to various kinds of torture. He was denied water to drink,

    Kelvin was about to step inside his sports car to leave the campus when the call came. He stared at the phone screen, trying to decipher why the Vice Chancellor was calling him because he wasn't fond of receiving calls from him. He responded. “Meet me in my office right now!” the VC told Kelvin and hung up. Kelvin sighed and took the route that led to the VC’s office. When he got to the reception, he was ushered into the office by the secretary. When Kelvin stepped into the VC’s office, he met the man resting by the edge of his desk with his arms folded around his chest. Kelvin sensed the tension in the room. He moved to one of the empty seats facing the VC’s desk and sat. He threw his back against the chair and crossed his legs. “I'm so ashamed of you.” the VC began with clenched fists. Kelvin arched a brow. “Of all the dirty things on campus you chose to do drugs?”“I don't do drugs.” Kelvin retorted. He took a deep breath and continued. “I guess there's a mix-up here and t

    “I want us to hit the VIP restaurant outside school,” Avery stated.Henry felt his pants pocket. He quickly pulled out his phone and after glancing at the screen, he frowned.“Are you okay?”“I just got an emergency text. I need to leave right now.” He said and began walking away.It was a bro code and Nathan was familiar with it. There was no text message. Henry just made up an excuse to grant them privacy.Nathan walked up to Avery.She cleared her throat loudly. “Now that Henry is gone, I guess the two of us can hang out.”“Sure!”They made their way out of the auditorium.

    “Wow!” Kelvin muttered under his breath. “Seems like Dingbat had just exploded.Before Derrick could blink, Nathan gave him a push that almost caused him to land on his butt.Kelvin’s eyes widened in surprise.The customers were soon attracted by the sudden commotion. All eyes were fixated on Nathan and Avery’s table.Nathan raised a finger at Derrick. “Don’t you dare raise a hand at Avery? You don’t even have the right to raise your voice at her.”“Or what?” Derrick retorted and walked up to Nathan. “Who the fuck are you?”Nathan positioned his hands on his hips and held up Derrick’s malicious stare. “The next time you treat Avery this way, you’ll regret it.”The furious Derrick clenched his fist and was about to punch Nathan in the face but the alerted Nathan saw the move coming.

    Avery was pissed at the way the manager was ridiculing Nathan. She faced him with her brows furrowing in annoyance. “You can’t talk to people like that. You should speak to Nathan with respect. He’s human like anyone else.”Kelvin broke out laughing. “I guess Avery was the one who paid for their food. He can’t afford a bottle of water so that makes him less of a human.”The manager turned to the security officer. “Daniel, I think you should call the cops. This guy here needs to be thought a valuable lesson so that next time, he’ll know his limits.”“Seriously? Who gets punished for self-defense!” Avery ranted.Daniel waved his phone. “Just what I was about to do before he demanded to see you. I’ll go ahead and call them.”“Can I speak with you privately?” Nathan threw the question at the manager.The manager turned to him with a glare. “No!”Derrick flashed an impish grin.“I need you to hear me out.” Nathan implored.“Don’t worry. The cops are going to hear you out.” Daniel said and

    Steve pulled the car to a halt in front of the airport building. Nathan turned to Avery with a smile. “You still want to do this?” He asked with his hand stretched out toward her. She took his hand into hers. “More than anything in the world. I’ve been running around for years and I never told you this but the main reason why I came back to Rockville was to make peace with your soul and then build my brand from scratch now that you’re here, I just want to spend as much time with you as possible, away from the whole chaos and drama. Just the two of us.” Nathan planted a kiss on her forehead. “Thank you so much, Avery.”She smiled. “I’m excited.

    Morgan turned to his bodyguards who had been inside the lounge with him all this while. “Call for reinforcements. We’ve been tricked.”Derrick darted Morgan’s attention toward the chip on the table. “It’s a camouflage. It’s all programming shit.” He said and began to take off his jacket. Morgan was already sweating profusely. “I must find the real Alex. I need to kill that bastard today.”“Are you even serious?” Derrick cried out. “We are in a mess. That chip proved that this whole session was recorded.” He took his head into his hands. “I should have listened to Kelvin. This was a bad idea and now, we’re doomed. I’m not even sure if we’re the only ones in this building right now.”“I reserved the whole damn building and apart from the staff, there’s no damn customer here.” Morgan retorted and threw his gun on the floor. “My backup team will be here any moment from now and we’ll get the hell out of here. As for that recording chip, I don’t care about what’s in it or who had access t

    “Now that your girlfriend is safe and out of the picture, let’s talk business,” Morgan said to Nathan’s camouflage who was sitting before him and Derrick. Both men had no idea that the man sitting in front of them was a product of science programmed to function like Alexander Alcantara with a chip buried in his head. The camouflage was programmed to follow Cole’s instructions and ever since he walked into the longue, his words and actions were being directed by Coke from outside. “Why did you kill my parents?” The camouflage asked Morgan. Morgan broke into a laugh. “Seriously? Do you think I have time for this? Do you want me to respond to your stupid questions? You’re doing this to buy time right?”“Isn’t it obvious that you have me under your mercy? If you are going to take me out then at least I deserve the chance to know why you killed everyone in my family.” Nathan replied. “For my brother’s sake.” Morgan quickly replied. “You killed Corrigan, the only person in the world wh

    Nathan stretched his hand toward Avery and held her hand tightly. “You’ll be fine.” He mumbled to her lovingly. She nodded repeatedly.Derrick clenched his jaw and looked away while his bowels continued to heat up with rage. “You’re lying,” Morgan replied. “I gave you ten minutes to come here and according to my guards, you came alone so how did you get to rally troops and station them here?”Nathan chuckled. “I didn’t bring any troops from home. If you and your partner were smart enough, you’d know that this is the Grandiose Hotel and the Grandiose Hotel belongs to the Alcantaras.”Derrick and Morgan exchanged glances. “Shit!” Derrick cussed and rubbed his hair repeatedly. “It didn’t cross my mind.”Morgan frowned. “All I had to was give the manager a phone call before coming in. I told him that if four minutes pass by and Avery does not come walking through the door, he should tell the restaurant security squad to start firing.” Nathan said. Suddenly, Derrick snatched Morgan’s g

    The waitresses returned carrying food trays. They graciously placed it on the table. Morgan reached for the plate of steak and began to devour it like a hungry lion. Avery kept staring at her plate of pasta and meatballs. “Are you okay?” Derrick demanded. “Yeah.” She replied and looked up. “Don’t eat that.” Nathan’s voice came through the chip. She heaved a deep sigh because that was exactly what was on her mind. What if the food was poisoned? She kept thinking. Nathan continued speaking to her. “Leave your bag there and get up. Act normal and tell them you need to use the restroom then you head out.”“I think I need to pee,” Avery announced. Morgan stopped eating and dropped his plate immediately. “But you just got here?”“Yeah.” Derrick agreed with a nod. Avery faked a smile and quickly stood up. “I think I had a lot of water earlier and now, I need to pee. I’ll be back soon.” She said. She was about to turn around when Morgan spoke. “Excuse me?” Avery turned around lookin

    “You look as gorgeous as ever,” Nathan commented while Avery was tracing her way down the staircase. It was time to meet Derrick. He had already dropped the location and had called a while ago to say that he was on his way. Avery was wearing a short black floral dress with black sandals to match. Nathan had insisted that she apply makeup so that Derrick doesn’t sense her insecurity. “Are you sure about this?” Avery asked when she reached Nathan. Nathan took her face into his hands. “You’ll be fine. I promise you with my life.”She smiled. “If you say so.”“Remember, act normal and do as he says. Okay?”“Got it,” Avery replied and walked away. By the time she arrived at the restaurant, Derrick was already inside because he had texted her about three minutes ago that he had arrived. On her part, Avery had convinced him that their meeting was a secret because Nathan was not going to approve. She had taken a cab to get there. When Avery walked into the building, she was stunned by i

    “Welcome, bro. What can I offer you?” Nathan demanded the moment Kelvin walked into his living room. Kelvin marched in and didn’t even look at the couch Nathan was presenting to him. “I don’t think I can sit.”“You look restless. What’s the matter?”Kelvin sighed and faced Nathan. “It’s Derrick. He had been in my place for the past three days and he’s been looking like shit.”“Did you ask you to come here and convince Avery to go back to me?” Nathan asked. He then raised an index finger. “Listen, tell Derrick that if I see him close to my woman, I’ll kill him so he should leave her alone.”“That’s not why I’m here.” Kelvin sharply replied. “Last night, he went on a rampage and drank several bottles of my wine and when I walked into him in my living room, he was half conscious and he said some things.”Nathan abruptly stood up. “What did he say?”“You and I both know that it’ll be difficult for a man like Derrick to change.” Said Kelvin. “It’s not like I’m condemning him.” He quickly

    “He’s coming out shortly,” Daniel reported and sat with the rest of the team. That morning, Morgan’s allies stormed his mansion to talk about the tragic events that were unfolding. It was no news that his biggest warehouse was burnt to ashes. That evening, another one was looted and by midnight, Morgan got information that his security guards were attacked on their way back from the club and 6 perished while two were in a coma. Morgan made his way down the staircase, carrying the weight of his problems. However, he was sober and didn’t display any angry reaction. Perhaps, he was too beaten by the incidents that he had lost his will to react. His Allies looked upon him as he made his way toward them. The group consisted of his friends and partners who had helped him execute shady deals in the past. After he sat, Daniel stood up and cleared his throat loudly. “There is no denying that we all know who is behind the constant attacks. Without mincing words, I’d like to inform you all t

    It was Saturday morning and during the weekends, Morgan plays tennis with Daniel, his assistant. Daniel is no fan of table tennis and barely knows how to hold the bat but every Saturday and Sunday morning, he shows up dressed in shorts with his gears just to impress Morgan. Also, Morgan knew that his assistant was bad in the sport so it gave him an edge to defeat him completely all the time. This morning, Daniel was already seated by the court in Morgan’s house and was waiting for his boss to show up. Morgan had just stepped out of his room and was on his way toward the living room before heading out to your court when his phone began to ring. He frowned and didn’t pick up the call. Even though he was a workaholic, he had made it clear to his workers that none of them would disturb him with work matters except if it was an emergency. The call persisted and the warning bells in Morgan’s head began to ring. What if this particular call was a case of emergency?The call was coming fr
