"Matteo has been stalked, and he had to stay indoors all through. We have to get this all over with. We are ruining his life," Sean explained.Leonid nodded in agreement. "When you are done listing out the code for sale, we will leave for the beach house.""I will inform the rest so they can start packing," Viktor stated. "Talk to you later, Sean."Viktor left the room; Sean was still on the phone with Leonid."I heard you code.""Yes, I code," Leonid responded. "How did you know about it?""Mr. Massimo told me about it; he often spoke about you, and I am glad he found you.""Why didn't he ask you to find me?" Leonid was confused. If his father had a great person like Sean, why didn't he find him sooner?"I was not fully with him then; I was considering a career at the FBI," Sean answered. "He also didn't know my full potential; I always hid it."That answered a lot."How come you invented the God's eye?" Leonid inquired."Boss, that's like asking me why I exist. It's a freaking long
"Yuri contacted Sean," Viktor muttered.Leonid glanced at Viktor with a curious look on his face. It had been fast; Yuri contacting Sean meant they had to act quickly."What did he say?" Leonid asked."He said he wanted to purchase the code and asked Sean how he got it.""What was Sean's reply?" Leonid asked."Sean said that to ask such a question, Yuri has to book a consultation with him, and they will talk over the phone. He said he does not talk to someone for free."Leonid chuckled at Sean's behavior; he knew it was going to upset Yuri, and he still did it. Leonid suspected Yuri might want to get Amelia's necklace, thinking the one Sean had was the fake one.Speaking of the necklace, Sean had sent it back to them, and Amelia now wore it around her neck. She had been so excited when Leonid handed the necklace to her. It was just like the first time when he gave her the necklace."How much did Sean charge?""$100 per minute," Viktor replied, making Leonid gasp. "Sean said the call w
Yuri took a long drag from his cigar and puffed out the smoke. He drummed on the table with his fingers, his gaze solely focused on the screen in front of him. Jonas was on the screen, informing Yuri about his prey. Yes, he was the predator, and his full target was Amelia. She was going to be a great lady for the auction—beautiful and elegant."What do you suggest I do, boss?" Jonas inquired.Yuri had been figuring out a way to get rid of Leonid for a while. Matteo had been the first target, but he couldn't get him because he had hired bodyguards. Yuri, however, figured out that Leonid had hired the guards to protect Matteo.Now that the code had been listed on the dark web, he had requested to talk to the man who had the code up for sale. The man had asked for $100 per minute to have a conversation. That damn fool wants to rip him off; he was sure the man was going to waste his time, and he might not get the information he wanted.Jonas informed him that Amelia didn't have the neckla
'He is here.'The words rang in Leonid's head: Yuri was here, and this was the time they had to get Yuri. The man was going to be out of the question now, and his wife was going to be free to move around now. He glanced at Sean and found him adjusting his beard, and the look on his face disappeared."We have to sell this and let the bullet hit him on the head. We have nothing to lose; I will not let him get away." Sean gave Leonid a reassuring smile. "Yuri is ours."Leonid forced a smile. "That's why we don't trick each other.""We won't." Sean replied with a smug look on his face. "We have got this boss."Sean led the way to the spot where they were meant to wait for Yuri. In less than two minutes, Yuri was walking in through the door with fifteen men. Leonid felt at ease knowing that they were surrounded by his men. They had gotten Yuri into their trap, and there was no way he was getting away."Mr. Yuri." Sean stretched out his hand as soon as Yuri got to them. "We are so glad that
"Boss, wait!" Sean screamed as he chased Leonid.Leonid heard Sean's voice as he called him, but he couldn't let Yuri get away. Yuri took a turn to the right, and Leonid followed suit. He grabbed Yuri by the shoulder and spun him around. Fists came flying into Yuri's face, and Yuri tried desperately to fight back, but it was of no use.Leonid didn't spare him; he delivered an uppercut and a kick that sent Yuri flying backward. Sean reached Leonid and aimed his gun at Yuri's head. Yuri was still on the floor with his hand placed over his bleeding nose."Should I kill him, or should we take him alive?" Sean asked.Leonid's brows furrowed, considering how much Yuri had caused them. He was going to be able to do whatever he wanted to Yuri if they took him alive."Take him alive."Just as the words left Leonid's lips, a bullet came from nowhere and hit Yuri in the head. Sean pulled Leonid behind himself and held his gun out, frantically looking for where the bullet came from. Then, the pho
Leonid paced around the living room, tapping his feet as he moved. He was trying hard to think about what had happened. Yuri had his wife and the others, and now he had no idea what to do. The tracking device had been found, and he held it in his hand. Yuri had been smart enough to check on Amelia before taking her."We have some information about Sil," Viktor muttered.Leonid turned around to look at him. "Information? Do you know where she is?""No," Viktor shook his head. "I am confused if Yuri has her or not.""Why did you say that?""The CCTV clearly shows Satan throwing Sil on his shoulder and running away," Viktor explained. "He came back, but he was no longer with her. The second camera shows that he entered the room where the helicopter was kept with Ace. I think Ace left with Sil, but we have no idea if Yuri got to them."Leonid was relieved to hear that his wife might be okay. If Ace was with her, he might be able to keep her safe."What about the others? And Satan?""Their
"Did Leonid ask us not to call him?" Amelia demanded as she paced around the room.Ace shot her a glance and shook his head negatively. "It is too dangerous to call him; Yuri might get to us first, and if he does, he is taking you with him."Amelia didn't give a damn about Yuri. After not hearing from Leonid for a while, she was starting to get worried about him. He should know where she was. She had been indoors all through, and all she could do was look out the window and gaze at the remote view in front of her.She was tired of where she was and wanted to leave."We should contact him," she said.Ace stared at her like she was crazy. She knew she shouldn't be risking her life, but she wanted to hear from him even though it was only his voice."Too bad, I don't have a cellphone."Judging from Ace's voice, he was trying really hard not to snap at her. She wasn't some spoiled brat, but she had a good knack for nagging."Why would you leave without a cellphone?" she asked. "There are n
The men strode into the compound through the opened gate, their steps calculated as they moved in rhythm. Six men. all dressed in black shirts, black pants, and black long jackets. The sun shines brightly against Leonid's face. He adjusted the sunglass and grinned slightly at the men in front of him. Pulling out his gun with the other hand, he took a silent shot at the man who was guarding the outside.A smoke from a cigarette moved towards his face as Sean took a long drag before throwing it off. The smoke exited his mouth in one special movement, and he glanced at Leonid and gave him a nod.Viktor pulled the trigger of his gun, and his lips twitched as he took a shot at the man moving behind the balcony. The man fell to the ground in one thud, and the sound attracted the rest of the men that were at the front door, but before they could turn around to look at the men moving into the building, The seven men killed them in one blink, as all the men from the outside were cleared.
