At 8 in the morning, Miller arrived with Old Master Franco, as well as other members arrived along with their bodyguards. The trustworthy bodyguards went in with their boss while the rest stood out, their heads up, in respect outside the place.. And Miller was one of them. They all dressed in a black and white suit, indicating what they were employed for. As the time passed, Miller didn't stop checking his phone until it was evening, and close to the time they lords will be done with their meetings. Miller’s phone beeped and as he checked it, he saw that it is a text from Daniel. {We are in position} Miller replied, {Be at alert, he’d be out any moment from now} Miller placed the phone back into his pocket and stood there, observing his surroundings, careful, so the rest of the bodyguards especially the ones close to him doesn’t suspect a thing, and luckily, they didn’t. He moved his head and looked around, then he saw Daniel and the rest of the team up at the rooftop
What were they going to do now that he wasn't in sight? Shoot the old man? “Oh shit! They are already coming out!” Daniel heard that and immediately turns. Then he saw the members, all dressed in the same out, coming out of the big building. “Daniel, say something.” “All I can say is, we stay put, and wait till the General gives up the order.” Daniel said calmly. If they try to act on their own, the General might just feed their intestines to the vultures. Just then, A black car drove into the building. Daniel and the team smile at the moment they saw Miller walking out of the car. “Finally!” Daniel sighed. Beep! Daniel got the text. He checks it out see that it was from The general, {Now!} “He just gave the order!” Daniel said, his eyes fixed on the people, and his finger on the trigger, so as the rest. “He's already in position.” They noticed that the General was now close to Old man Franco. “We shoot In… 1…2…3…” Daniel made the countdown and at the thir
“Taking the bullet in place of old Master Franco?” He managed to ask.“Of course!”“Yes!”“Yeah… Miller… even if you were simply doing your bodyguard duty, which is to protect me.” Master Franco said to him. He knew he wouldn't go wrong getting Miller as his bodyguard.It was then that Miller got to realize what was going on! Daniel and the team had carried out the plan… but without him!And as for the doctor asking if he felt any pain… Fuck…“You mean, I was shot in old Master Franco’s place? I shielded him and took the bullets?” Miller recalled all the plan he made with Daniel and the team.“Exactly!” Master Franco nodded.Miller swallowed hard, looking at their faces, then to the ventilator beeping close to him.‘I was never shot.’ He thought to himself.He remembered vividly, that at the exact time the plan was about to executed, he was sent out by a bodyguard from inside!When he arrived at the location, they wasted one hour of his time and when it was finally time for them to le
The three of them swallowed hard, glaring at the General's body.... He was obviously bandaged at the spot they shot, how come he was telling them he wasn't shot? They couldn't help but bit their lips in confusion.What was the General doing in the hospital if he wasn't shot, or a bullet was never removed from his body?It was all as confusing as ever.“It wasn't me you saw… You all shot someone else!” Miller shook his head in disappointment. “But… General... When the members of the clubs walked out, we saw the car you drove out , driving back in.... You walk out, and walked over to the old man. Then you sent this text... and the plan was carried out perfectly...” Daniel explained. He wasn't hallucinating, it was the General they he saw.... same hair, dressing, and aura.. he was hundred percent sure it was the General they all saw. There was no slight mistake on the person that left and the person who returned. Miller shook his head, trying to make sense of what his team were sayin
That's impossible! He was there when his mother was buried before he went to the army! How is she suddenly alive?She didn't resurrect, did she?"Daniel is right, boss..." Nora nodded, handing him some pictures that were taken during their investigation.While he was unconscious, they were busy with the investigations. "That's not my mum." Miller glared at the pictures all over and over and over again.The woman in the pictures had blonde hair, and she looks Asian. She looks nothing like him or his brother. Miller is half Filipino and half Asian, but still, he was sure this is false."According to our investigation, General, she's your mother." Daniel reveals."Craig's nose and hers are the same... see...""Then her investigation is trash!" Miller frowned. There was no way in hell this person was a mom!"But that's the truth, if you want, we could go in search of her." All they needed was a go ahead from the General and they would begin the search for her.Miller didn't say a word. H
"Lord Jonathan, weren't you the one in charge? Where is his head? It's been over three months since we lost Lord Theodore and Lord Lopez. Where has your so-called superiority gotten you?" She demanded, her voice cold as ice."Shut up, Elvira! You have no right to talk to us that way! You are also part of the club! How have you contributed to the search of that beast?!""Exactly! I don't know why the bitch is acting like it's just us who's meant to kill the masked fool!""I am your leader here! The orders were given to us, but you're all superior, aren't you? Then show me the masked man!" She roared breathlessly, "Why hasn't he been killed yet?" "For your information, we have a lead on him! You were never useful to any of us! We are going to get him soon!" They shouted back at her. "I knew it was a bad idea coming to this gathering!" Elvira shook her head, getting up from her seat with a frown."Well then get lost! Your presence was never needed in the first place!" Members thundered
Miller walks out of the compound, flagged down a taxi, gets in and shuts the door."Where are you headed, sir?" The man looked up at his rearview mirror.Miller fished Elvira's card out of his pocket, looking down at the address, he said, "Polaris Villa, at the central point." He says to the man."That will cost you a hundred bucks." The man says as he takes the next U-turn, heading straight to the highway."Just take me there." Miller said to the man as he looked outside the window, different thoughts pouring on his head.His life seems not to be going as planned. Craig was out there, not willing to come face to face with him. First he gave Miller his blood, sent Megan a picture, now he took two bullets for him.He didn't know if Craig's aim was to help him or to ruin him. But he was sure as hell that Craig was close to him, and probably watching his every move quietly. Then he's hearing his mother was alive, and now a member of the Mighty men knows who he is! A second in command fo
Miller raised his head and saw the middle-aged woman walking up to him with two wine glasses and a bottle of wine."Good day, Mrs. Elvira." Miller said as she placed the glasses in front of him and poured the wine into the two glasses.She took her seat in front of him, "Drink with me." She sipped her wine.Miller raised an eyebrow, "I'm not your drinking buddy." He stated, "I don't know who you are and for all we know, you might have other plans for me." He was just being careful.Better safe than sorry."Hahaha!" Elvira burst out laughing, "Haha! Smart." She commented, "I like you already." A smile escaped her lips."So, tell me, Mr. Scofield, what is the most powerful being in Fox River doing at the clubhouse? A bodyguard? You?" She tilts her head."What are you talking about?""Oh, let me rephrase that; what is a god of war, leader of the 11 gods of war in the east, north, west and South province of Fox River, dressed like this and having the tag 'Bodyguard' to a man in the lower
At 11 am, Miller heard a knock on the door of his mansion."Go get it." He said to Sucre who was busy with a lot of pictures, and files they were using to track down Megan's abductors.Sucre bows and walks away to do the needful."Good afternoon Mrs Elvira...." "Get out of my way!" Elvira pushed Sucre aside and walked into the living room without permission.As she approaches Miller, Miller could sense the anger boiling in her.Before Miller could say a word, Elvira threw him the phone from last night in front of his table."Nice try, but neither you, or your team, can eliminate me!" She barked, her voice cold and devoid of warmth.Miller frowned at her sudden outburst.He shifted his gaze to Sucre and the rest, "Excuse us." He said to them and they all walked away, leaving just him and Elvira in the big space.Miller looked up to her, "Is there a problem? What are you talking about? Eliminate you? I don't understand." Miller uttered truthfully. He had no clue of all she was saying.
At the moment Sucre heard his boss' voice on the other end, he knew he was as good as dead."What the fuck is the meaning of that text you sent me, Sucre?! Where is Megan? Where is my wife! Answer me, I'm not playing with you!" Miller thundered, his voice echoing the whole place.One could sense the furry in his tone.Sucre fell to his knees as he cried, his body trembling, not knowing how to explain the entire thing to his boss.He was going to kill him. He and his teammate had tried all they could. They went back and forth, in and out, road to road, warehouse to warehouse, club to club! But it was as if they took Megan to a different world entirely.No one they asked could recognize her or agree to have seen her anywhere. He wanted to keep it a secret until he found her, but he knew the General would be even more mad for not letting him know on time, plus, Daniel had advised he tells the General so the situation doesn't get any worse."G... Ge... General... I can explain..." Sucre s
Fuck! How was he going to explain this whole thing to his boss?He was in big shit!"I... I had her... but.. but... she was taken away from me... shit! I'm dead! Who are these people and how do I tell my boss all this!" Sucre cried out.But he never stopped. He was driving all round the highway. He divided the group and instructed them what to do so they could find the bastards who took her.This continued until the dead of night, and there was still no trace of her.And he had already informed his boss the plan was successful! "Boss, I think it's best we let the General know. We've been in search of her for five hours now, and she's nowhere to be found." A teammate advised. Plus, it was getting pretty late. "The General is going to take our lives! He doesn't joke with his wife! We have to look for her! We can't stop!" Sucre instructed, even though it was now 10 pm in the night. ~The Grant family were all gathered in the living room, trying all they could to reach Megan but her ph
"Who are you people and what do you want from my boss' daughter?" Fernando tried to go over to the car where Megan was placed."One more step and I promise you, I will blow your brains out! I'm not playing with you!" Sucre thundered. "Count yourself lucky I didn't choose to kill you! If you as much as try to follow us, or even do anything contradicting, I swear on my mother's grave, Fernando Acosta! I'll painfully and dangerously take that breath that's keeping you alive." Sucre warned. Fernando was caught off guard. He took several steps back, not daring to look the man in the eye. He freaking knows who it was! He addressed him by his full government name! He swallowed hard as he glared at the multiple guns being pointed at him. Though they were all masked, their aura did something to his insides. Swiftly, the car doors were being shut one after the other. All of them got into their cars without saying a word to him.Within seconds, all cars zoomed off right before Fernando and th
"Megan? Argh! What does she want? Doesn't she know you're working?!" Master Franco hissed, "Give it to me!" He demanded and Miller handed the phone to him."Megan? Your husband is busy! His job is not a child's play, you can't be calling him in the middle of a work day!" He tone was cold."I'm sorry, Grandpa.... You see, I have a flat tire, so there's no way I can drive my car out of here...." She explained everything to him."Book a cab! Don't call Miller like you're the one who pays him." "But he's my husband.""And he's my employee." Master Franco wasn't having it. Miller had a lot to do here, and he isn't going to allow him to leave!"Understand me, Grandpa. There's no Internet connection to order a ride." Megan pleaded. The cost of booking a cab caused a fortune, plus they usually don't come to places like this, and there was always a high risk of getting into the wrong hands."You don't want me to get into the wrong hands, would you?" Master Franco hesitated a bit.And sensing
Miller leaned into his seat, his head resting on the couch as Elvira spoke.She was in his lounge, so he was comfortable in relaxing his body. Plus, he was glad that his usual symptoms were no longer disturbing him for days now."They still treat you the same way?" Miller nodded, "I don't think my in-laws would ever see me differently even if they found out that I am the supreme General.""What? 30 million is a lot of money! Are the Grants that selfish?" Elvira scoffed. Well, Master Franco is a greedy old man, he shouldn't expect less from the rest of the family."Uh... I heard the mighty men are on the hunt for the masked man." Miller changed the topic on why he asked for this meeting."They know it's the masked man, plus they have been asking me suspicious questions, especially Lord Hunter. Do you think he knows something?" Elvira asked.Miller fell in deep thoughts for a few seconds before nodding his head, "Before Lord Jonathan died, he said something about the whole members know
Miller arrived home at 9: 30 pm. Megan didn't come with him, so he was left with Aliyah."I wanna sleep in Billy's room." Aliyah protested as her father was taking her to their apartment."Okay." Miller turned and entered his in-laws house. He took her to her cousin's room where she wanted, placed her on the bed as she was fast asleep.He walked down from the stairs and as he was about to leave, he heard a newscaster's voice on the TV in the living room.".... The man identified as Mr. Jonathan Scott was found dead an hour ago by the unpopular Pinix road.... reports reaching us that he was alleged to be at Everred days ago, and our source confirmed that his death was from an enemy.... "Hearing this, Miller stood and watched the clip of them carrying Jonathan's body, and his car was still there. Miller took the remote control, turned the TV off. Since he didn't hear Levi and Master Franco talking about it, he thought they were trying to keep it a secret, only now he realized that he
Even most guests took several steps back, not wanting to get involved."Miller? Are you sick? Why would you do that to him!" Megan frowned."Call my dad!" Raymond shouted.His father was at the VIP table outside in the cool garden, so the people there had no clue what was happening at this part of the party.Grandma Christina walks up to Miller, her eyes bloodshot red, "Get out this instant! Get your stupid self out of my party!" "Yes!""You heard her! Get lost! I wonder who even invited such a moron here.""It's best if he leaves! The party was going smoothly before his presence!""You heard the people! Take your daughter, and leave! It's already worse that you lost your marriage by not doing what you were supposed to do!"All the while the people murmured about him, and his in-laws added theirs, Megan didn't say a word.She stood among the crowd as her family were berating Miller, but she was helpless, plus, Miller was partially at fault for hitting Raymond and causing all this cha
"It's business related.... I had to talk to my boss, why?" Miller said on the other end.Though he lied, he didn't want her to get worried. Plus, he was hoping that Tasha had not said a word of his nose bleeding to her."Do you have a single idea that your name has been called for you to present your gift to Granny?" Megan was harsh."Oh, just give me a second." Miller ended the call, took one look at the mirror, hoping his bleeding nose had stopped completely before walking out of the restroom.He had heard the whole thing that happened, plus Nora was present in the hall, so he knows of everything that happened while he was away.He so badly wanted to come out and punch that bastard's face in, but he couldn't risk Megan and her family seeing him in this state.They didn't know what was wrong with him, he himself had no idea, and he seriously doesn't care. He wasn't going to any fucking hospital.Hopefully, after a few days, he wouldn't have this feeling, but for now, he has made sure
