" We lost the certification deal? How is that possible? " Layla questioned, with a baffled look on her face, She knew by the looks of her father....He wasn't joking at all, This was a huge disastrous blow to them. " Do I know? What did you do in the jade summit party? Did you angered Nancy Callaway? " Mr Arnold Rymeria asked, claudia rymeria remained quiet in the room while watching what was happening. She had never seen her husband so pissed off before. " No dad, we didn't even see her in the jade summit party, when we went to look for her, she was said to be busy, We didn't even meet her not to talk of angering her " Liam answered, sweating profusely. " The certification deal was our chance to rise in power, We have to secure it at all cost, I don't care what happens next, I don't care what needs to be done " Mr Arnold spat out, his aggression never ceased. " Father, I think that stupid ex husband of layla is responsible for this " Liam spoke out. " What are you talking a
All it took was a few minutes and bodies littered on the ground and shards from the broken car glasses were scattered, the streets were this occured was bathed in blood and his shirt drenched and soaked in bloods. Reed let out a sigh when he unmuted his call. " Mr ryder, what is going on? " The unmuted voice asked from the other end of the call. " Slade, I had quite a lot of bugs disturbing me so I had them dealt with in the best way possible " Reed answered, placing the phone close to his ear, the blooded weapons were scattered across the scene. Both guns, machetes and knifes!! Dead bodies filled the scene and yet the only target remains standing, it all happened right outside the mall and in an open field, with many eyes witnessing what just happened, a single man killing dozens. " Bugs? Did you kill anyone? " The voice asked when reed stared at the littered dead bodies, soaked in their own pool of bloods, a smile escaped his lips.... Naturally he would have ran away easi
The call ended and ms.nancy hurriedly rushed down to the central region alone, leaving her little sister behind without any explanation, it took her a few minutes before she arrived at the station of the central region's police.She came down from her convoy of black benz with her bodyguards waiting outside.Making her way into the station with her secretary aya who she brought along, they were instantly recognized by a few officers who approached them, who doesn't know ms.nancy callaway in summerville." Ms.nancy, it's good to see you here....I was the officer who called you, my name is detective han, sorry about the impromptu request but it was urgent " Detective Han of the central region's police spoke out.A masculine figure dressed in blue, heavily muscular, stretching forth his hand for a hand shake but ms.nancy ignored it."

Thank you han, you can leave now, I will handle it from here " Chief Daniel kennedy stated, waving at detective han to leave the office, detective han bowed his head in respect before he left." Ms.nancy, what do I owe you this suprising visit? I thought the callaway family deals with the west, they have no business with the central region " Chief daniel said, sighing out loud with his legs crossed." A friend of mine got attacked by gang menbers, he defended himself and now you are charging him for first-degree murder, how stupid of you to do something like t
" What did you just say mother? Uncle is negotiating with the nancy callaway just for that poor thing? How is that possible? " Layla asked, she quickly lost her hunger for food upon hearing the news." I don't even understand but my big brother confirmed it, He met with nancy callaway " Mrs claudia answered." It doesn't matter what the callaway family wants with reed but what we are going to gain in this process, if that little girl nancy callaway agrees to my brother in law's request and we are added back to the certification list "" It will be a good thing, the callaway family betrayed us by removing our name from the list without any valid reason, we will support santos brothers " Mr arnold stated, he continued eating calmly." But still dad, that reed must not escape prison, he broke my arms and humiliated me before, he needs to suffer for the rest of his life " Liam cried out, bittered by the fact that reed might be free if the callaway family agrees.He wants reed ryder to suf

If it was ruled as self defense, why are the police still charging mr ryder? " Mr Osborn calmly asked!" Its because of the rymeria family " Ms.nancy answered." The rymeria family? What are they? " Mr osborn asked, He has never heard of such a name before, names of second tier familes are insignificant to a man
