As soon as Avery was away from Adrian, he immediately pulled out his phone from his back pocket and placed a call to Fred.“Hello, boss!” Fred’s sleepy voice came through.“Why are you asleep this early?”“I was at a party and had a lot of drinks; why are you calling me? I thought you were supposed to be having a family dinner with your sister's fiance?”“Yes, that is what we all thought, but we got the surprise of our life when I found out that he was Jason”“Jason? What Jason are you talking about?”“The same Jason that we have been searching for all this while”“What!! How is that possible and how are you sure that he was the one?”“Because I felt him, he was trying to use his powers to get me confused, that way I did not realize that he was the one, but I was able to overcome him”“Did you catch him?”“No, we were all so surprised at that moment and he was able to escape”“Shit!”“Yes, which is why I need you guys, now that I know what he looks like, I think that we can be able to
Jason could not tell how long Eva had been standing there, but as soon as he ended the call, she was right before him. He had admired her from the first time she was introduced to him, especially after seeing how dangerous Kelvin yet she had agreed to work so diligently for him.“How did you get here so fast?” he grunted, seeing the smile on her face even while he was in a situation like this.“Because this is important, that is how I got here so fast”“And I am guessing that whatever this is has to do with Kelvin?”“He is all that I live for, everything that I do has to do with him”“What is that thing about him that barely gives you joy right now, you do realize that he is barely human at the moment”“I don't care; everything about him gives me joy,” she spoke nonchalantly as she went through the other side and hurried inside the car.“You sounded like a guy who was on a date with a girl when I called, but from what I can see, you are alone”“Yes, I was actually on a date a few hour
The next day, Adrian stormed to the office feeling so furious that he could barely get any winces of sleep as he stormed right to the private office where Ted and Fred had their hands on the computer.“Boss! Good morning!” They both rose to their feet as soon as they noticed his presence. But his presence was not the only thing that they could see.Ted and Fred had also noticed the deep frown on his lips coupled with the fact that he was properly dressed and his tie seemed to have been noted backward; Adrian’s hair was barely combed as it looked disheveled while his jaws were clutched.“Did you sleep backward last night?” Fred could not help but ask.“How could I get any sleep when this Jason guy made a mess of my sister? First, it was me that he had abducted; next, it was Avery that he planned with Kelvin and abducted. I almost lost Avery because of that incident, and now my sister. I think that I have had enough of his madness and can't take it any longer”“You are right, all this h
Mr. Albert had just come out of cultivation, and in the living room was Bob, who seemed to be practicing some magic spells. “Master! You are out?”“yes, has Adrian been here today?”“No. Is there something that you would like to say to him?”“Yes and will appreciate it if you can go over to Wesley Corporation and inform Adrian to come here right away, there is something very important that I must discuss with him”“Alright, Master, but whatever this is that you want to discuss with him, can't you just say it to me, too? I am also your student, but why do I feel like you give Adrian more attention and tell him secrets that he should not know about, or is it because he is from a very wealthy family?”“Bob! Why would you even say something like that?”“You leave me with no choice, I am a senior to Adrian in the cultivation world and yet Adrian does not show me any regard or respect at all, I feel like it is the love that you have for him that has made him behave in such manner while you
Jason furrowed his brow as he ran his fingers through his messy hair with rage in his eyes, knowing that after the warning he got, he still went ahead to mess up the job.“Sir, I think that we need to leave right now because the plant that he just consumed is a deadly plant, and soon he will be dead!”One of his men alerted, and this only made Jason more angry; he glanced around his environment, trying to make sure that no one was watching.He definitely had not seen this coming and never thought that the old man would take his own life or else he would have stopped him, but rather, he failed again.Jason quickly hurried outside with his men, hopped into the car, and drove off. Albert was panting for breath; he was in pain, yet he still struggled to the position where his phone was lying, knowing fully well that he did not have much time left.As soon as he got his hand on his phone, he quickly dialed Adrian and was lucky enough for Adrian to have picked up immediately but this luck o
As soon as the cops all surrounded the building, Adrian and Klein stepped out of the apartment to come meet with them. There were a few of the detectives that he was familiar with.“Mr. Adrian! You seem to be so drawn to crime scenes lately that it feels like you are everywhere that I go for investigation”He teased, but Adrian did not find it funny; his face grew cold.“That was meant to come out as a joke, so go ahead and tell me why you are here and what relationship you have with this man?”“I came to see him, he is like a father to me and I have always visited him since I was a young g boy”Adrian responded, but even while he did, his gaze was still fixed on Bob, who was getting interrogated by another detective.“Who is he to you?” The detective had noticed Adrian's expression and asked.“He was also close to our teacher and lived with him”“Then why are you staring at him like that, do you think that he might have anything to do with the death of Mr. Albert?” The detective was
Klein came to a halt in front of an office apartment; this was the media that Jason owned; it was a large building, but even while Adrian was staring at it from the car, he could not tell why he was there.“Klein! I told you to take me to his home; the address that Fred sent is his home address; why in the world are we here?”“This is his home address, from what I see here, looks like he lives at the upper building of the office”“Sure, you stay right here while I go inside!” Adrian instructed but it did not look like Klein was going to obey that instruction. He also alighted from the car and Adrian was staring at him perplexed.“What are you doing Klein, I thought that I just instructed you to wait for me at the car”“There is no way that I am letting you go up there all alone, I understand that you are strong and have powers that can protect you, but once in a while, I think that we all need someone to have our back”“But….”“I am sorry Boss, but there is nothing that you are going
Daniel could tell that his son was getting worked up and finally wanted to end the conversation. He had barely seen Adrian angry in the few times that he had known him.“That is enough, son; go back home, and we can discuss this later tonight!”“Yeah, I heard you the first time!” Adrian responded in a manner that Daniel had never heard his son speak before Adrian rose to his feet and stormed out of there, slamming the door behind him.Adrian thought that it was going to go easier on him later tonight when the entire family was home, but he was halfway asleep when he was informed by one of the household staff that his presence was wanted downstairs.When Adrian strode through the stairs, there was Uncle Theo, Uncle Sean, Grandpa Hallow, and his father, but there was also someone who wasn't part of the family, and that was the detective from earlier.“Dad, what is he doing here?” Adrian asked, his eyes trailing at everyone, but before his Dad even got the opportunity to speak, the detec
