The next morning, Marcus decided to follow Sandra to the office, maybe then he would find a clue to the tycoon lord. He helped Sandra pack her office bag and held the bag, holding her hands as they stepped out of their room. But they met with John, who sneered at Marcus. "All you do is chase my sister. I know you are with her because of her money," he said, his voice laced with venom. Marcus, unfazed, replied with a grin, "At least I got myself a lady who's rich. What do you have for yourself? No money, no woman." John gritted his teeth, his face red with anger, but before he could say something, Sandra spoke up, "Sweetheart, let's ignore this loser." She pulled Marcus's hand, and they walked away, leaving John seething with rage. John stared at the spot where they had left, his eyes blazing with anger. No one had ever disrespected him in this house, and now Sandra had made him lose his standing in the family. He knew one thing for sure - he needed to come up with a way to get th
The police surrounded Johnson, and he held his breath, relaxing his back against the tree, his heart racing with fear. He was sweating despite the cold weather, knowing he was in grave danger. "Search everywhere for him, he must be close by!" one of the police officers yelled, and his men obeyed, shining their torchlights in every nook and cranny. "I can't find anything, sir," one of them said, and the chief police officer cursed, "Fuck, we've missed him!" He turned around, his face red with anger and frustration, and barked, "Let's go, team! Drag the dead body!" He remained frozen, hoping to avoid detection, as the police officers dragged the body away.When he heard the footsteps fade away, he peeked and saw that the police had finally left. He let out a sigh of relief and sat down on the floor, feeling defeated and lost. He had nowhere to go, no one to turn to, and no idea who to trust at this point in his life. He pulled out his phone, hoping against hope that Don had sent him
Marcus held Sandra's hands and headed to the office, his eyes scanning the room for a place to set up a small device. "So, what can I help you with?" he asked, smiling.Sandra chuckled. "Well, like I said earlier, there's really nothing to do. I don't know why you insisted on following me," she said, smiling playfully.Marcus chuckled. "We'll find something for me to do. I want to be useful," he said, his eyes wandering around the office.As he turned a corner, his hand accidentally touched a frame on the wall. It was in the perfect position to capture everything that went on in the office. He turned around and caught Saber's eyes fixed on him, a smile on her face. He returned the smile. "Your frame is beautiful," he said, trying to sound casual despite the device now in place.Sandra’s smile grew wider, and she nodded in appreciation. "Thank you, Marcus. I'm glad you like it." Her eyes lingered on his for a moment before she turned back to her work. Marcus grabbed the opportunity
Don shoved his phone back into his pocket, thinking he'd deal with John's message later. For now, he needed to focus on helping Johnson."So, how far do you agree to run for now?" he asked Johnson, who growled, rubbing the back of his neck."Not like I have an option," Johnson said, his voice laced with frustration.Don smiled reassuringly. "Trust me, you won't regret it," he said.Johnson's expression turned serious. "Hopefully, when I have settled, Don, you will have to sneak my father's body for me. I don't trust the Tycoon Lord," he said, his voice low and urgent.Don's eyes widened. "That would be quiet hard," he responded, understanding the gravity of the request.Johnson's eyes pleaded with him. "I know, but you have to do this for me, please, Don. I'm begging you.""Fine, Don said, even though he wasn't sure how he'd manage it. "Thanks, buddy," Johnson said, smiling."I've arranged for some men to help you," Don explained. "You'll need to use the riverine at night to avoid b
Don's eyes widened in shock as John smashed something over Sandra's head. "What the hell have you done?" he asked, stunned.John grinned. "This is the juicy offer, my friend."Don's confusion deepened. "How is she part of the deal?"John's smile grew wider. "Help me get her to the bed. We need to move fast; she'll wake up soon."Don hesitated, unsure, but John's urgency was infectious. "Fine," he muttered, nodding reluctantly.John's grin broadened, revealing a sinister intent.Sandra was placed on the bed, and John pulled out a rope, beginning to tie her up. Don's eyes widened in alarm. "What are you doing?" he asked, his voice laced with concern.John's expression darkened. "Watch and see. You ask too many questions, Don."Don's frustration boiled over. "Well, for your information, I need to know what's going on! If anything happens, I will be affected too, you fucking know!" he yelled.John snorted, rolling his eyes. "Help me tie her legs," he said, tossing a rope at Don, who caug
Marcus stood outside the company, leaning against the gate in a hidden corner where he couldn't be seen. He was waiting for everyone to leave the office so he could sneak in and search for clues. Just as he was starting to relax, his phone rang. He picked up the call, and Kathrine’s voice was on the other end."What's up, Kate?" Marcus asked, his tone casual."Bad news, boss," Katherine replied, her voice hesitant.Marcus groaned, sensing something was off. "Spill it," he said, his tone firm.Kate hesitated before delivering the news. "We can't find Johnson," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.Marcus's expression turned serious, his mind racing with possibilities. "He didn't return to his penthouse last night?" he asked, his voice laced with concern."No, sir," Kate replied, her voice firm.Marcus groaned, rubbing his forehead. Adding Johnson to his list of worries was the last thing he needed. "Well, I want you to check everywhere for him. I don't think he has anyone to t
Sandra let out a loud scream as Marcus dropped the jar, his eyes fixed on Don's lifeless body on the floor. Marcus groaned, regret etched on his face. "I didn't mean to hit him on the head," he muttered, standing up to untie Sandra. "We need to get out of here as fast as possible," he urged, his voice low and urgent.Sandra's voice cracked as she asked, "What about Don? What will happen to him?" Marcus reassured her, "He'll be fine," and she nodded, though her eyes betrayed her worry.Marcus quickly scanned the area to ensure they hadn't left any incriminating evidence behind. Satisfied, he took Sandra's hand, and they made their way to the receptionist's desk. They put on a calm facade, acting like nothing was amiss, and swiftly exited the building. Once outside, they broke into a run, desperate to put as much distance between themselves and the scene as possible."What if they check the CCTV cameras?" Sandra asked, her voice trembling."We'll claim self-defense," Marcus replied,
John got up and walked out of the hospital, getting into his car and pulling out his phone. He dialed a number, and on the second ring, a voice answered."I have a deal for you," John said, his voice laced with urgency."Boss, you haven't paid for the last job we helped you with," the caller reminded him, their tone firm but familiar.John groaned, knowing he was out of cash. He cleared his throat, trying to sound convincing. "If you're able to do this job, I will pay you immediately. This is an instant payment," he pleaded.The caller paused, then said, "I'm only agreeing to this because it's you, Boss." John let out a sigh of relief. "Thank you so much.""What's the deal?" The Caller asked, his curiosity piqued."The usual," John replied, his voice hinting at a familiarity with John's requests."Good, send the location," the caller instructed, and with that, the call ended. John sent the location with a sly grin, whispering to himself, "Sorry, Don, but your journey ends here." H
