Tyler yelled out with a loud voice, he lay there on the floor, feeling excruciating pain. Thankfully the bullet didn't touch a vital spot, it hit his legs. Senior Mcpherson turned back with shock written all over his face, a sigh of relief escaped his lips immediately after he noticed that he wasn't dead yet, and his racing heart slowed down a bit. Losing two grandsons and the future of his company in two days is something that he can't bear to handle. "What are you still doing standing around me, some of you should call the ambulance and rush him to the hospital!" he yelled out to the bodyguards. "The ambulance is on its way sir, I've already called them," Max said, standing close to him. "Good," he nodded his head while two of the bodyguards escorting him rushed over to where Tyler lay helplessly on the floor. The bodyguards paved the way for him through the commotion. Another sigh of relief escaped his lips immediately when he entered his car. His driver ignited the engine an
"Why… how are you here?" Shane asked in fear, his voice breaking. He staggered backward a bit till he fell on the bed, he quickly got off the bed as fast as he could. Jake ignored the question and kept walking towards him, his fingers already curled into a fist, he tightened it and closed the gap between them. He grabbed Shane by his hair and pulled him closer, slamming his fist into his face as hard as he could, he repeated the action again and again, before throwing him backward. Shane bent his head, groaning loudly in pain while covering his nose but Jake barely gave him any breathing space, he landed a punch to his stomach and pulled him closer to him, running his face unto his waiting knee, where he smashed it on. "Oh, God!" Shane called out in pain, he held Jake's hand, trying to pull it out of his hair but his efforts were proved abortive, Jake's hand didn't even bulge at all, he let him try to break free for a while before continuing his assault on him. "So you are the on
Seeing David's lifeless body only confirmed the doubts that had filled his mind, he knew Shane and his capability. He is not clever enough to pull off such a thing, being the mastermind of what had just happened is way beyond what he can do.This only brings one question to his mind, who is the person behind it? He would have thought it was the handwork of Tyler but upon hearing that he is paralyzed, that just takes him out of the picture.He could only interpret it to be one thing, there is someone out there that he doesn't know, a deadly rival that knows of his existence and wants to put him out of the picture, but there is no way he would allow such a thing to happen.The next day arrived quickly, the senior Mcpherson called for another meeting with ten shareholders and the rest of the workers again but this time it was in a different hall, there was no way a sniper would have any opportunity to shoot because it was now on the ground floor and there were no windows there.The secur
Jake furrowed his eyebrows, staring at her with an angry expression, he hadn’t forgotten what she had done, how she had abandoned their son in the middle of the road and ran off to God-knows-where.“What are you doing here?” he questioned her angrily.Immediately she opened her mouth to answer, “Leave!” he yelled at her, pointing at the door.She stood up immediately, with a blank expression on her face, there wasn’t even the slightest look of remorse. She picked up her bag and walked past him, she stopped immediately she had stepped one of her feet outside the door, and turned back.“I will be expecting you in court tomorrow because I want custody of my son,” she said and walked out before he could even give her a reply.“Fucking asshole, there is no way I will let her have custody of my son not after what I had seen her done,” he said, his fingers curling into a tight fist of their own accord.He turned to look at Max who was standing beside him, “Get me the best lawyer that you can
What?! Senior McPherson killed? He furrowed his brows, his eyes filled with disbelief. It was less than 24 hours since he last saw him, and hearing that he is killed now only baffles him.Who killed him? He questioned inwardly, but this a question that he might only find the answer to if he let himself be arrested but choosing that would also mean that he wouldn't be able to get custody of his son.Any choice he makes would mean he won something and lost the other, but currently, finding the mastermind behind what is happening is his primary objective, he can come back and find a way to get custody of his son.He stood up and pushed his hand forward, letting himself get handcuffed, immediately after they had placed the handcuff on him, they led him outside.He could hear murmurs escaping from the lips of almost everyone in the courtroom. He paid a deaf ear to them, the opportunity to catch who was behind Shane had already presented itself.But one big question remained on his mind: Wh
Chapter 18Jake stayed still there for a while, unable to move a limb, he was overwhelmed with shock. A big question filled his mind, is it that everyone close to him has been planted by his greatest rival? Or has Max become overambitious and is aiming for the position of chairman because he sees that the family is falling apart?He concluded in his mind that staying in the same position that he was hiding wouldn’t provide the answer that he was looking for.Anger enveloped him, he had only one desire before jumping out of his hiding spot to catch him by surprise, which was to kill him.Max jumped back in fright immediately he saw Jake jump out of the bush.Jake plunged forward and grabbed him by the collar of his shirt, raising him, his feet were away from the floor, looking down at Jake, the look he saw in his eyes filled him with fear.He raised his hand, “Whatever it is that you are thinking, I am sure that you are very wrong” he stuttered, struggling to stay calm.“So what you ar
In a luxurious bathroom that was screaming about how wealthy the owner is, there was no sound of running water, just outside, there were guards stationed there, in front of the door, while further inside the huge bathroom, a young man was seen sitting in a bathtub filled with soapy water, both of his arms were outside, placed on either side of the bathtub. He held a glass of wine, gliding it along the side of the bathtub while a burst of maniacal laughter erupted deep from within him. The thought of him finally completing his plan with no disturbance filled his heart with an unspeakable joy. He raised the wine glass, drawing it closer to his lips, he took a short sip from it, licking his lips, a soft sigh of satisfaction escaping his lips as he felt the exquisite, rich taste of the winemaking contact with his tongue. The moment of his enjoyment was cut short by the door being slammed open, the next thing that followed suit was bodies flying in, some of them slamming their bodies aga
Josh cowered in fear at the scene that was displaying right in front of his eyes, Jake was singlehandedly manhandling the assassins who were all trained for one special mission: which was to kill, but it was like they were all facing a superhuman, he was far greater, stronger and faster than all of them combined. They were barely able to land a successful attack on him. Josh trembled as he watched him slam one of the assassins’ heads right into the wall without an iota of mercy, with a cold expression on his face. “Fuck” he muttered under his breath, falling to his knees as quickly as he could, immediately after watching him deal with the last assassin standing. “Don’t think that you would be left out of the fun” Jake said, closing the gap between them in an instant, he grabbed him by his hair, pulling him across the luxury vinyl tiles of the bathroom. “Ouch,” Josh wimped in pain, raising his hand to touch Jake’s hand to reduce his hold on his hair, but after seeing the just concl
