The Almighty Tom Sullivan Chapter 010
Tom motioned to Felix to take the chair across from him. The attorney stood stern, his eyes darting back and forth warily between the two men. A servant brought in three goblets of wine with silent efficiency.Tom picked up a glass, swirling the wine lazily, his piercing gaze locking onto Felix. "Go on, Felix," he said, his voice calm but commanding. "Have a drink. I trust you'll find it… satisfactory.Felix hesitated, his sharp features betraying no emotion. Memories teetered in his mind, reminiscent of the last time he shared wine with Tom. That moment had been to end Tom's life. Now here Tom was, alive and thriving, smirking as if he could read his thoughts."I'm not a two-faced man, Felix," Tom said smoothly, leaning back in his chair. "If I had a problem with you, you'd know it. I don't poison people in the dark—I confront them in the light."Felix chuckled, lifting his glass but not drinking. "You've always had a way with words, Tom. Or should I say… Your Majesty-to-be?"Tom's l
The Almighty Tom Sullivan Chapter 011
The soothing melody of the string quartet filled the grand hall, blending perfectly with the murmurs of conversation and clinking of glasses. The Metropolitan Hotel and Plaza Conference Hall was glittering with lights. Tom stood near the center, clad in a tailored black suit that fit him like a second skin. He held a champagne glass, conversing with the governor, whose booming laughter punctuated their exchange. “General Tom,” the governor said, gripping his arm warmly. “It’s a pleasure to see you again. We’ve missed such brilliance at these events. Truly, it’s good to have you back where you belong.” Tom smiled, a charming but measured expression. “The pleasure is mine, Your Excellency. Life has its twists, but it feels good to finally stand on solid ground again.” The governor nodded approvingly, raising his glass. “Cheers to your success, my boy. You’ve made quite the comeback.” As Tom excused himself to mingle with other guests, a familiar face stopped him. It was Vincen

The police swarmed the hall, their sirens piercing the air as they secured the scene. All the guests were in total shock, their faces pale and frightened from that gunshot. Amidst all of the chaos, Tom was rooted to the spot. His mind kept reeling with questions. Who wanted him dead? That was the million-dollar question that he needed an answer to. He however felt a wave of gratitude wash over him, since none of his esteemed guests were hurt. That would have been a much bigger issue, and so he was very thankful that nothing like that happened. Tom scanned around for any clues, but there was no trace of the assassin. He had vanished into thing air without being captured by the authorities. The police scrambled to review the security footage, but Tom knew it was a long shoot. So that wasn't going to be of any benefit. Just as he was about to let out a sigh of relief, his phone rang. He grabbed the phone from his pocket and answered the call. A doctor's voice came on the line.

The police had been able to restore calm. Lovely chatter and melodious rhythms filled the banquet hall again, the guests now calm and enjoying themselves. Tom walked confidently onto the stage and began to speak, his presence commanding attention. "Hello, honourable ladies and gentlemen. I apologise for the earlier interruption. Please, don't worry - security has been tightened, and we're all safe now. Let's put that behind us and enjoy the rest of this wonderful occasion." The guests erupted into applause as soon as Tom finished speaking. "Who even dares harm the almighty Tom Sullivan?" a voice came from the crowd. Just then, His Excellency Mark Bruce, the governor of the state rose from his seat and raised his glass. "To the illustrious five-star general Tom Sullivan," the governor declared, a broad smile spread across his face. His voice continued to boom across the hall. "A great hero who has proven that he is a force to be reckoned with... Long live Tom Sullivan!"

A white limo waited for Tom outside the hospital. As he settled into the plush leather seat, his mind reeled from the recent events that had been unfolding in his life. The doctor's words were still fresh in his mind.... Who was this woman that came for Lisa and how did she pull everything off so easily? He really needed answers. "Take me to my house," Tom instructed the driver, his voice low and urgent. "Which of your mansions, General?" the driver asked. "I mean, take me to my old house... where my wife and I lived," Tom replied. He thought perhaps he'd find Lisa at their old house, the place where they had shared so many memories together. It was the only place that made sense, considering he hadn't moved into any of his mansions with her after her injury. Tom's heart ached with longing as he wondered if she might be waiting for him there. The driver nodded and pulled away, navigating through the evening traffic with ease. Tom sat back, slowing sipping a glass of mar

Upon seeing his wife, Tom dropped his phone and rushed towards her. Lisa looked troubled, and that bothered Tom. "Honey, are you okay?" he asked, helping her sit down. He sat beside her and gently tucked a stray strand of her hair behind her ear. "Lisa, I was so worried about you... I know who did this to you, he's going to pay dearly," Tom said, concern etched on his face. Tom couldn't help but notice the tension in his wife's face. She seemed so rigid, and tight with anxiety. Lisa didn't reply. Tears had gathered in her now red and puffy eyes, and she just looked away, struggling to hold them back. "Lisa, please say something to me," Tom pleaded, his voice filled with desperation. "What happened? What did that jerk do to you? Did he hurt you? Just tell me?" "No," Lisa finally whispered, her voice barely audible. "But you don't look fine to me. I think we should go to the hospital, just to make sure you're okay," Tom said, seeing the current state of Lisa. "Don't bothe

(The Sullivan Mansion) Two days had passed since Lisa had returned. Tom had explained his past life to her, and they had moved into his grand mansion. Despite the luxurious surroundings and comfortable way of living, Lisa's mind still reeled with doubts. She now saw Tom as a monster who was just lying to her, and that he had given her a twisted story about his past life. Lisa stood in front of the bathroom mirror, washing her face in the middle of the night. Her eyes stared back at her. And they were filled with disappointment and disgust. "No... I just can't believe Tom could be this wicked... he's a monster." She was finding it difficult to accept the fact that Tom had taken away innocent lives, and even had a hand in Phillip's supposed death. How could he do such a thing? His past life was nothing but evil. She thought about the way Tom had explained his past, about how he became a five-star General, about his family, and how he lost his memory after being poisoned by his

Felix raised an eyebrow as Phillip sat across from them at the table, a look of uncertainty shone on his face. "Why should we trust you, Mr. Constantine?" Felix asked bluntly. "Who knows, you could be working for Tom or be an undercover cop." Phillip chuckled. "Haha... I assure you. I'm neither. I just want to help you take down Tom Sullivan." "Why would you want to help us? I'm finding it difficult to trust you. I mean, you appear from nowhere and offer to help us get rid of Tom. How did you know we had that in mind?" Lucas snorted. Phillip leaned in, his eyes locked on theirs. "Let's just say I have my reasons. But for now, I'll let you decide. You can keep waiting for an opportunity against Tom, which might never happen, looking at how powerful he is, or you can accept my offer. The ball is in your court.." "Hmm... what's in it for you?" Felix's expression softened slightly. "Nothing. Just the satisfaction of seeing Tom fall. I want him to be miserable again. But this ti

Lucas came downstairs, intending to serve himself a glass of wine. But his eyes widened in shock when he saw Phillip Constantine, sitting comfortably on the sofa in his living room. "What the...?!" Lucas exclaimed. He was stunned. "What are you doing here in my place... and how the heck did you even get here?!" Phillip looked up, and took a quick sip from the glass of wine in his hand, smiling. "Oh... I think I should have knocked. But I needed a place to stay, so I told your security I was your guest." Lucas's anger flared up. "Those bunch of idiots! Why did they just let you in without informing me?!" "Hey buddy, calm down. Okay? I just needed a place to stay, so I thought it wise to come here since we're now partners with a common goal. Where I was hiding isn't too comfortable... that's why I'm here, Lucas," Phillip said. Lucas frowned. "That doesn't explain why you think you can just barge into my home. It f*ucking doesn't explain why the heck you're here!" "Home yo

Tom finally decided to confront his guest, Felix, and made his way downstairs, still in his nightgown. As Tom approached where Felix sat, he stood up from the couch and bowed deeply to Tom. "Good day, General Sullivan," Felix said as he bowed, leaving Tom utterly shocked. "What the heck just happened?" Tom thought to himself, stunned. Felix had just bowed to him, acknowledging his position in the army. Was this some kind of joke? Tom's mind was racing with questions. What were Felix's intentions? Because Tom knew very well that his cousin would never bow to him. He knew Felix hated him so much that he would be happy if he was even shot dead at that very moment. "What's behind this sudden change of heart, Felix?" Tom asked. His skepticism was evident. "You've been against me from the start, and now you're bowing to me? What's going on?" Felix paused, collecting his thoughts before speaking. "I've had a change of heart, Tom. I realize now that you're the rightful ruler. You're the

Lisa was rooted to the spot, her eyes fixed on the screen. Her heart wouldn't stop pounding, and she didn't know what to do. "Aren't you going to pick the call honey?" Tom asked. He looked at Lisa, concerned. Lisa tried to play it cool, even though her heart was racing. She didn't want Tom to suspect anything. "It's nothing. I'm not going to answer the call. I'll just talk to Cecilia in the morning," she said smiling, before hugging Tom. "Let's just go to bed okay. I'm sleepy." Tom raised an eyebrow, not fully convinced. Wasn't she the same person arguing about the call a few minutes ago? She was the same person who said her friend was having troubles and really needed someone to talk to. So why was she ignoring her call now? Tom however didn't want to ask Lisa any more questions... he wasn't ready to push the issue. They had argued enough, and he didn't want to start another fight. As he hugged his wife back, his mind couldn't stop racing with thoughts. Tom couldn't shak

Tom's eyes snapped open, and he was met with an unfamiliar chill in the air. After rubbing the sleep from his eyes, he realized the window was open, and the wind was blowing in, causing the curtains to billow inward. With his eyes still heavy from sleep, Tom managed to go close the window and was about to drift off again when he noticed something was off: His wife wasn't in the bed. Where could she be? Tom wondered. "Lisa? Lisa?" Tom called out twice, but there was no response. He threw off the covers and got out of bed. He checked the entire room, but Lisa was nowhere to be found. Where is she? Tom kept wondering. It was then that a faint murmur caught his attention. He followed the sound and realized it was coming from the bathroom. Tom headed towards the bathroom door and reached out for the doorknob. He slowly turned it, and the door creaked open, revealing Lisa standing with her back to him. Her phone was pressed to her ear, and she spoke in hushed tones, oblivious to Tom
