The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed Pleading for forgiveness
Kneel? Ethan's brows creased in annoyance. Based on status, he was the esteemed manager of Pinnacle Bank, a figure whom so many people looked up to, and here was a punk, demanding he kneel in front of so many eyes. That would be a big insult to his pride and reputation.“Punk, don’t go too far. I’ve realized my mistakes. Don’t think you can threaten me the way you see fit.” He bellowed in anger as he pointed at August.“The one who threatened us here was you. You wanted to call the police, didn’t you? I’ll give you a last chance, you owe my wife an apology, do it peacefully or see you in court, pick one.” August replied with a frown, putting him in a tough position again.Thinking about it, Ethan figured he still had the upper hand here. As long as he got the recording from August, he would have nothing to present to the police as well as sue him. Besides, he had so many men behind him so why get scared of him?“Punk, you have just asked for it, and don’t blame me for being rude.” Eth
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed A reward
Huh? Wasn’t this daylight robbery? Fifty million dollars as compensation for all this? Ethan found himself in a dilemma once more. He wasn’t sure he would be able to get out of this one for the rest of his life. He only made two hundred and fifty thousand dollars here a year, how would he be able to pay the bank after this?He remained knee on the floor. His consciousness seemed to have left his body for a moment when Caroline spoke.“Bring the legal agreement. We will take it as a loan, not compensation.” Then she turned to look at August with a pleading gaze, that explained he shouldn’t pursue this matter anymore. Fifty million was such a huge amount and making Ethan bare the consequences of that would only make her feel like a bad person.“Okay, I’ll let him off because if you.” August compromised with a smile.“Thank you.” Caroline smiled before looking at Ethan.“I’ll get it right away. Thank you so much.” He replied before storming off quickly to it done. She had just spared him
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed Divorce him!
Just then, Rachel, Ms Winston, and even Mark walked out of the villa. When last had he ever made an appearance here in this house, but today he was here. All because of what?That wasn’t all, a man clad in a suit looking to be in his early thirties also walked out holding the divorce papers. He was a lawyer from the marriage union. “What’s going on here?” Caroline's brows creased as she looked around. August also frowned. He couldn’t help but shiver on the inside thinking, with their persuasion, she might give in to divorce him. Besides, a few days ago, she said that herself. What if her decision hadn’t changed? What if she still wanted to divorce him? So many thoughts were popping up in his head.“You didn’t hear me correctly? Since that bastard has come to the family, he has caused nothing but chaos. He even made you turn against me and take over the company. He beat your brother too. You don’t think I’ll take this to you?l” ms Winston said as she pulled Mark forward. Surprisingly,
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed Who sent you?
Watching August leave, the expression on their faces turned even ugly. What was that attitude just now? Who told him to walk out? Had he become even more arrogant because Caroline refused to divorce him? Damn it! Ms Winston cursed. She found him on the street, crippled, hopeless and useless.She brought him here as he was a perfect victim to make her plan work, but now it felt like he was a weapon fashioned against her. He had become Caroline’s backbone, and now he was rigorously acting on his accord as though this was his turf.“We have to find a way to deal with him. I’ll make sure to hook Caroline up with some second generation and only then will she get her mind off this loser. Also, he can help us take care of him.” Ms Winston said her thoughts out loud before looking at the lawyer.“I’m sorry, my granddaughter is just blinded, but that is temporary. I’ll make sure to come find you and sign the papers.” She said to him.“No problem. Since both parties hadn’t signed the document t
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed I need names
Seeing the look in August's eyes, even if he wanted to throw more jokes, he didn’t have the guts to do so. Besides, he had been warned that August had quite a temper and if he were to infuriate him, then regardless of if he had lost his powers, he could still be killed. After all, David was always by his side. August might not be a threat now but David was. His strength was so formidable that it was also feared in the country even though it didn’t hold a torch to August back when he was still in his prime.Sighing, the man replied. “Here,” he leaned to the side and pulled a briefcase to the front. Then he unlocked it and pulled out a stack of documents. “I was asked to give you the ownership of Apex Corporation. Please sign here and the company will be yours.“Also here is the sum of five billion dollars. It’s all yours. You can take it and start your own business. The apex company is a second-tier company that is worth ten billion dollars. It should be enough for you right?” The ma

Inside the Lamborghini.The man in a suit pulled out his phone and dialed a number while at the same time, his other hand was on the steering wheel, controlling the car at an insane speed.“Hello, I’ve done what you asked. But I’m afraid David is on my tail.” He said nervously as he could see David’s car was almost catching up to him. Even though his car was the latest edition of Lamborghini and was supposed to be quite fast, David's car seemed to be modified and in terms of speed, they might be considered almost the same.“That brat? Don’t worry, I'll handle it.” A voice replied over the phone before the call disconnected. The man smiled knowing he was going to get out of this situation and even though David was open to following him to get some answers, he was doomed to fail.On the other hand, David who was about to catch up to him was suddenly shot by a sniper out of nowhere.Bang!“Ooh, shit!” He cursed and quickly controlled the steering wheel to dodge the bullet, but that wasn

“Rachel?” August couldn’t believe his eyes. His mother-in-law was here inviting him for dinner. This had never happened before. She hated him to the core, always berating him for no reason, and worst of it, never had she offered him food.If not for Caroline, she wouldn’t do it. And now, on her accord, she was here inviting him? Shortly after they wanted him to divorce Caroline? Something was fishy. He could smell it.Sensing his hesitation, she frowned. “I know I’ve not been a good mother-in-law to you, but now I want to make a difference. I can see Caroline likes you so much. She even stood up challenging her grandmother that she wasn’t going to divorce you. “I can see how you support her company's progress and I won’t lie, I feel you are the best one for Caroline. Since you can now walk, I have no issues accepting you. Taking this dinner as an act of apology for how I’ve berated you these past few years.” Rachel expressed herself with teary eyes hoping he could find a place in his
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed Find a way to keep her at bay
Hearing this, Rachel's eyes widened. All she wanted was to kill August but nothing else. If Caroline was to eat that food, then of course she would be the one to die. Not only could this cause a huge crisis in the family, but also, as her mother, she wouldn't want such a thing to happenOn the other hand, August didn't have the intention of letting her eat it. Though this poison might take a while to kill him, as for Caroline he wouldn't say the same thing as after all, she was just a normal human with no abilities.Moreover, Caroline had already taken a chunk when Rachel dragged it off her hand, kept it back in the plate, and took it away. She didn't say anything else, but her actions had already proven that what August said was true.August was about to stop her too but when he noticed Rachel's panicked expression, he let her do it, so the truth could be revealed. Now it wouldn't seem as though he was trying to frame her.“Ooh my God, she poisoned the food?” The realization dawned o

A double agent
“Ooh, is that so?” August raised a brow at him, amused by the amount of money he took and was intending to flee. Five hundred million was quite a huge sum and August was certain that it was either half of the company's annual income or it was one quarter. Yet, this man wanted to flee with it like it was his? Were people like him always this rotten?“I…” Ayden tried saying something but nothing was coming out of his mouth. He saw this as a good opportunity to leave this place and become rich. His salary was only five hundred thousand dollars yearly, and he felt it wasn’t enough. All he had to do was embezzle the company's resources and then try to cover it as much as he could, perhaps until he had left the country.He never expected that August would catch him so fast and in just their first encounter. Just who in the world is this man? Ayden was already shivering as though his body were going to melt.“Please forgive me, it’s the work of the devil. I haven’t used the money. I can stil
The company’s report
Alongside David, both of them drove to Apex Corporation. As a standard company that was worth billions, it had a unique opulence that made it stand out in the place.The building was a sleek, modern skyscraper. It stood over 50 stories high, with a gleaming glass and steel façade that reflects the city lights. The tower's design was a blend of minimalist and futuristic elements, with clean lines, sharp angles, and a spacious atrium lobby.“The sight is heavenly. It is difficult to believe that this company is now yours.” David smiled as he tried looking to the end of the building.“It means nothing. This is just to suppress me, isn’t it? I’ll play the fool for a while before confronting them at full force.” August said looking indifferent before walking towards the building. David followed him, and soon they approached the receptionist.As they got there, it felt as though the woman had been waiting for them. She wore a charming smile as she greeted.“Good morning chairman. We have al
Another threat huh?
After the call, Rachel rolled her eyes and started pacing back and forth in the room thinking of what to do. True, Caroline wasn't her child, but she was raised since she was a kid by her. It was rare to say she didn't care about her. Also, if Caroline left this house, they would no longer see each other like before, and getting rid of August wouldn't work out. If August was out of her life, they could pair her up with someone and marry her off, that way the company would be handed over to Mark. Mark was her biological son and because of this issue, he had left home. She had to do this or else she would lose her child and she didn't want that.“I have to make Caroline stay in this house. I can't let her leave!” She said to herself before walking off.On the other hand, Caroline who left went to August's room. She placed a gentle knock on the door and when he replied, and walked in.August was seated on the bed half-dressed, about to sleep when he heard her knock. He didn't have an o
