In less than 10 minutes after they left, Miller opened the door and rushed over to Megan's bed.“Miller… you're back?” She hugs him back after he wraps his hands around her, hugging her tight like he couldn't get enough of hugging her.“When did you arrive?”“Just now, I told the driver would take me here directly.” Miller explained to her, “What happened? Why? How come…”“Oh! I see the wife is back home to her husband!” Miller and Megan turned to see Eleanor, Levi and old lady Christina walk into the ward.“It took you almost the whole week. Why are you back into our lives, you bastard? Why didn't you remain there?!” Levi shouted.“Dad? You can see he just arrived. Give him a break.”“Shut up, Megan! Where was he when you were brought in here last night? Isn't it his duty to protect his wife? He failed as a provider in the marriage, he failed at a man now he just failed as a protective husband!” Eleanor shouted, causing Miller to frown.She was right. It was his duty to protect her
‘Your resemblance is out of this world. You can be useful if your brother is too stubborn to do it.’ Miller sighed as he stood in front of the crowd; lost in his own thoughts…. An incident that happened six years ago. The men in front of him were soldiers and as he walked around, they all saluted him. As Miller expected, convoys of black cars filled the place, causing him to smirk. As he walked over to the car, he heard a voice behind him. “I thought you changed your mind after last night's discussion. And, are you still keeping your position as the Almighty General a secret or….?” One of the supreme rulers asked Miller who opened his car door. The middle-aged man didn't dare look up at Miller, his tone filled with respect. Miller had ruled greatly in the past years and it was more reason why he and the other rulers behind him wanted him to remain in the east province rather than going back to his hometown, Fox River. There were about 12 rulers, each representing the 12 c
He didn't realize there was someone also in the kitchen with the kid. “It tastes heavenly, Aliyah … you're beginning to cook like a pro. Even better than me.” Miller heard the maid who was at the other corner say after tasting the food. It was then that it dawned on him that this malnourished looking kid was the one who prepared the food she was dishing into the bowl; and Paxton was upstairs, telling her not to serve herself after all her efforts?! This got Miller frowning. Especially since he had a hunch that the girl was related to the Grant family. “No, what if sir Paxton checks my mouth?” Aliyah shook her head, rejecting the small portion of food the maid handed over to her. “Eat it fast, he won't find out.” The maid had this sorry look in her eyes as she said to Aliyah. “There's no bread to give you tonight as sir Paxton had hid the keys to the locker.” “Where is my mummy? I wanna go to her.” Aliyah said almost in tears as she wiped the sweat off her face. It was obvi
He had a fearless gaze as he angrily yelled at Miller. Six years was sure a long time and considering how skinny and poorly looking Miller used to be, he didn't recognize him…. The man in front of him had a different hair color and abs.“Put my niece down, and get the fuck out of my house!” Paxton thundered.Miller smiled, “Oh, so she's suddenly your niece, huh? You're a lunatic!” He thundered, his voice echoing throughout the building. His intimidating aura got everyone ready to flee from the kitchen.Even Paxton didn't bother going any closer.“You're so dead!” Paxton smirks as he sees four of their guards standing at the door entrance. He had this relief and confident smile.“Make sure he's not breathing.” Paxton commanded them.“He has a death wish… we'd make that come true!” One of the men yells before attacking Miller.Smack! Smack! Bang!Before Paxton could process what he just witnessed, all the guards were groaning on the floor.“Not my eyes! Fuck!”“I can't see… shit…”“My b
Megan paused and stared at her husband in horror. The man rolled his eyes, “Hey! Stop dreaming… you don't even look like someone who can afford to breathe here…. And you want me to chase my customers for you? Even the richest man here cannot afford to pay that…” “How much?” Miller cut him short. “2 million dollars! Do you have that? Well I thought as much…. Wake up from your slumber and get your ass out of here or I'd make you regret your existence….” The man barked. “Don't just sit there! Or you think men dressed in rags are who we offer our service to?” “Don't say that to my daddy… you're mean...” Aliyah said but Megan was quick to cover her mouth. “Good… put a leech on your daughter. Her daddy can only blab! You beggars have got some guts!” The man shouted. Miller's palm formed a fist and the atmosphere became intense as he stood from his seat. “Did you just say that to my daughter?” Miller checked his name tag at his left chest; it was Dustin Brown. “Fucker…” be
“Your time is almost up, buddy…. This place isn't cleared yet!” Miller said coldly to Dustin. Though the place was filled with wealthy men, of the same caliber as the mafia lord, none of them dared look Miller in the eyes. At least not after what they all just witnessed. “Get out… get out…. All of you! Leave this minute!” Dustin yelled out coldly at the customers who were still sitting and watching. Most of them left, and the ones who were brave to stay started packing their bags immediately. They were terrified at what they saw, but most of them had ordered wines worth a million, even if they wanted to stay behind and have them, then had to run for their dear lives. “I think he was hit by lightning.” “It was beyond human imagination….” Miller heard the customers whimpering as they ran out. In less than 51 seconds, the place was clear and quiet. One of the hefty men snapped his fingers and a tall fair lady walked up to Miller's table, her head facing the ground. “Welcome…to t
“Your replacement! - now that you've said that, James… I agree…. He can take his ‘Mistake’ of a daughter along with him after doing the needful!” Levi thundered.Miller's hand formed a fist upon hearing those words. It seems, ‘Mistake' was the title given to his little daughter by the Grant family. The urge to make them regret their actions filled him but he hid those feelings and tried to be civil with his in-laws. They were still Aliyah’s grandparents. “Hahaha! I trust you, uncle. I wouldn't be needing a ‘Mistake' in my house.” James mocked.Miller frowned and turned to James with a stern look, “If you value your tongue, you better tie it! The respect I have for my inlaws are the reason you're still breathing. Keep my daughter out of that trash hole in your face!”“Haha! It seems the army has given you the audacity to talk back! Do you know who is sitting before you?” James scoffed, “You’re a nobody compared to my status. Did you see the Maybach outside? Even if you were to be sold
Dustin did not dare move close to the scene. Not after what he and his men witnessed at the restaurant. This man right before them was a monster. They valued their lives, so they lowered their heads, terrified at the pains he was inflicting on the young master.James was on the floor, growling and spitting blood from his mouth when Dustin walked up to Miller and bowed before him. To everyone including James' surprise, Dustin clasped his hands, his head lowered to the ground, “Sincerely, I know I'm stupid, and I apologize…. Not for the young master… but for myself….” James’ jaw dropped immediately as tears of pain rolled down the corner of his eyes. He almost passed out, and his men were bowing before the enemy? Talk about irony.“Put the young master in the car and take him back to his father…” Dustin ordered the rest of his men and they did accordingly.“Put me down! What the fuck are you doing, Dustin! What the hell did you smoke?! I said deal with that father of a ‘Mistake'!” Jam
