" My my, thank you Ashley, your words gladens are quite refreshing aren't they? " Ms. Nancy asked, still smiling but this time, Her words were sarcastic, Ashley remained calm, not showing her anger.Ms. Nancy turned her gaze, facing Tyler Aston!" Tyler, Sorry I couldn't properly keep visiting you since the incident but I was glad to hear you got better, to think such a traumatizing incident happened, I'm really sorry for having you involved " Ms. Nancy apologized." There is no reason to apologise, my lady....the Aston Family do not blame you for what happened to me, We are allies after all, but it's quite sad nothing is yet to be done regarding those Santos "" Aren't they becoming too bold? " Tyler asked.Aya's eyes were squinted the moment the question was asked but she didn't show it!" That's true, they are excessively becoming bold but their days of standing in power is diminishing and we will soon have a world free of the Santos Brothers reign, but while we are here "" We sho
[ Earlier before the Conference Event ] The door leading into an Hotel Room opened up, Pedro Lamaz walked into the room, holding a bottle of champagne on his hand, his eyes met with the Rymeria Siblings who were present in the room. Layla laid her back on the bed while Liam is sitted on a black chair. " Pedro, you are back? " Layla asked. " Sure I am, It didn't take me much time tho, I came with the preparations as well, this laxative poison, It's quite toxic and there is antidote for it " Pedro answered, showing off the bottle of champagne. " Wow, this is the real deal.....Where did you get it from? " Liam asked. " I have connections, It cost me more than five hundred thousand to get it, So it's quite potent, Since there are no antidotes for it, It should kill her perfectly " Pedro answered. " I don't doubt it's potency but how fast does it takes to kill someone? The target will be poisoned in the Conference right? We don't want her to die so quickly " Layla said when Pe
All attention were fixed on him, They were all aware of the fact that he is a representative of Vertigo, after all, despite all the important elderly figures present in this Conference Event, He was the one treated as the Vip." I should properly introduce myself, My name is Kane Monroe and I'm the ambassador of the Vertigo, as you can see....My presence here signifies that Vertigo are quite interested in moving in the medicine world "" My position in Vertigo remains a secret so consider me as Vertigo itself " " But I'm curious, how does it work? Mophex " Kane questioned." Can you care to elaborate what your question is about? " Ms. Nancy nervously asked, but she didn't show her nervous side, Kane rose up to his feets, he adjusted his eye-glass.Addressing Ms. Nancy who remained on the stage!" I listened to your presentation and I quite like it, but I'm curious to know how Mophex works, You said it can cure diseases and viruses right? And it can help with cancer as well, expand yo
" No, not at all, She is all yours.....I was about leaving now " Tyler answered with a smile on his face, He quickly left the scene, Aya wanted to remain but Ms. Nancy gave her the look, she left the scene.With a burning anger in her heart." Ms. Nancy, I will formally seek an apology again for the disturbance but you see, your presentation was quite spectacular, Vertigo seeks to expand their control in all aspects of the business world "" That's why I am here, and my presence means my decision is the final say of Vertigo, now let's talk business, Are you certain that what you presents is hundred percent true? " Mr Kane Monroe asked." Ofcourse, When dealing with the all powerful Vertigo, why would I lie? " Ms. Nancy asked." Its understandable if you do since this is the Vertigo after all, before I came here, I was told that you are acquainted with President Kim right? No, your family is acquainted with President Kim " Mr Kane said." Yes, that's correct " Ms. Nancy answered." The
" Greetings gentlemen, My name is Vance Callaway and I'm the owner of this building you are here to raid " Those were the words of Mr Vance Callaway as he made his way towards the inspectors." Mr Callaway, It's good to see you are here on time "" I don't want any excuses that you weren't here for the search, my name is Daryl and I'm the one incharge of this Investigating Team sent by the Mayor's Office " Daryl spoke out, with his hand stretched forward.But Mr Callaway refused to shake the hands of Daryl." Well it's good you guys are here, there is no reason to delay any longer right? Lets get to business " Mr Callaway said with a smile seen on his face, throbbing veins spread on the face of Daryl.His teeths in anger and he brought down his hand, faking a smile." Just wait you bastard, when we get what we want, I will be the one who gets to destroy you first " Daryl thought when he faced the entrance of the Callaway's Tower, the security guards remained in their position." Yes y
" Huh? What the hell do you think you are doing? "Daryl winced out in pains, he turned his gaze to see Reed Ryder standing besides him, with a look of venom seen in his eyes, It didn't take more than a few seconds before Daryl started sweating profusely." Let him go at once " the officers present ordered when they brought out their glock pistols all pointed at Reed Ryder!Reed turned his gaze, facing the officers whose guns were pointed at him and with a smile on his face, He released his grip on Daryl.A sigh of relief escaped Daryl's lips as he staggered back in fear.His racing heart gently became calm when he went towards his armed officers to regain his confidence but his right hand which was grabbed shook, Daryl has never seen someone this strong before." You bastard, I remember you....Reed something right? You were the one who dared interfere with my Investigation and beat up my men, now you dare pull such again? Do you not fear? " Daryl asked.Trying to regain control of th
A Victory for the Callaways and a loss to the oppositions!The Investigation Team reported back to the Mayor's Office at once, It took them a few minutes before they arrived back in the Central Region and they were headed directly into the office of the Mayor.Mr Daryl knocked on the door of the Mayor, He was welcomed in.Mayor Riley is seen sitted in his office with a smile written on his face, Standing besides him is Minister Dante whose hands were behind his back, calmly watching what is happening, They expected the officers to walk in smiling.But their expressions disappointed them!" Mr Daryl, Why are your faces so dull? What happened? " Mayor Riley asked, his expression darkened, becoming aggressively sterned, Minister Dante remained calm, trying to figure out what's wrong.Mr Daryl stepped forward and he bowed his head before the Mayor!" Sir, I'm sorry I failed you, We searched through the Callaway's Tower but we were unable to find those implanted substances we would use aga
" Wow, this is really a shocking news, this is really an opportunity to reach the top list " Mr Vance Callaway said." Yes dad, the opportunity is here knocking on the door " Ms. Nancy answered." Good job kid, You really made your dad proud today, I was right to choose you as my official heir since your older sisters left the family business with me alone and left, Where is Vertigo's Representative now? " Mr Callaway asked.He took his seat back, still smiling brightly." He is staying in our five star hotel, I offered him to stay there without any fees since he is a guest but not only that, To prevent those predators from trying to get close to him and bring him against us "Ms. Nancy answered." Very good but which hotel are we talking about, We have multiple hotels " Mr Callaway calmly asked!" Its the Crescent Star Hotel, the closest to the Callaway's Tower so we can be prepared for anything that's to come and I paid the City's armed force heavily to guard that hotel " Ms. Nancy
[Flashback]" Greetings boss, to think you would be the one reaching out to me now, It seems something has happened " the voice of Gerald was heard the moment he answered the cal!Reed remained sitted on the bench, still in the hospital!" Yes, before....I asked you to stay with Leonardo Santos in other to watch him and give me Informations regarding him but I don't think it's necessary now, I will be doing things my way starting from now "" Although I expected this but he touched someone I'm trying to protect, I need you to give me details about the ones responsible for kidnapping Lizzy Callaway, they recently just left Re'l Edouch castle "" Slade said they will be heading to the Conference Event " Reed said."

Hmmm, what are you looking at? Gerald " He asked with a frown, they were all seen present in the depths of an silent woods, dozens of armored vehicles were scattered around the scene with soldiers ready.Gerald wore a grin when he tilted his gaze." Nothing really but the fact that you are here and not at the boss's side, has he given you another role to play? " Gerald asked, gently buttoning his suit, he is putting on a pair of black gloves.The soldiers who are seen in this lonely woods are all the soldiers who followed him even in retirement, they we

" Mummy? " Lizzy called out.Her voice etched with fear, her legs shivered in fear when she looked up to see Aya smirking evily, her hand held a Glock 19 pistol, she ran towards to where her mom laid, her eyes filled with tears." Mom, mom please open your helps.....please don't sleep mommy, please stay awake " Lizzy pleaded, tears flowed down her cheeks, Aya watched with a giggle." Awww so sweet, a family's bond really is extraordinary but there is nothing you can do, that bitch mother of yours is losing too much blood every minute, she will die soon " Aya spoke out, her words etched with venom." You wretch..... Not only did you try to sabotage my sister's business, you even came into our house and shot my mother, you will pay for this " Lizzy aggressively spat out, Aya's eyes twitched.Stunned to hear what Lizzy just uttered." He-he-he-he-he, so you knew huh? to think I would be eavesdropped by a mere brat, I knew that wasn't a mere intuition, but it doesn't matter, I came here t

" Umm, Mr Ryder....is there any problem? " Lizzy asked, she noticed the change in the atmosphere, she could taste the tension in the air.Reed responded with a smile." No not at all, just focus on your movies and put on your headphone, there is nothing to be worried about " Reed answered, still smiling, Lizzy nodded...she put on her headphone, and she continued with her vids.Reed took a deep breath, a defeating sigh escaped his lips.He watched as the black land cruisers owned by those responsible for the chase drew closer, he increased the speed, this turned into an high speed chase, Reed took a U-turn, moving his car sideways.The Land Cruisers followed without hesitation." Nancy would be mad at me if anything were to happen to her little sister, I have to take her back to Re'l Edouch castle where she will be safe, I can't let Lizzy see bloodshed " Reed said to himself.He knew the truth, If Slade is to make an appearance, it would be a chaotic one, unlike other four star general

" A ghost huh? I will look into him as you have suggested "" If he is the man I'm looking for, it will be easier to cripple the Callaways but regarding the Callaways, has the boss began to make his move? " Dana Ford questioned, he kept the picture in his pocket." Yes, we have a fixed target area " the man in black answered!" And which is? " Dana Ford curiously asked, he released smokes directly from his nose, smoking his cigarette without care." In a day or two, the Conference Event will enter it's last stage and it will be concluded, it seems the Callaways will be solidifying their position so Leonardo Santos plans to stop them from reaching a new level "" We will be attacking the Conference Event on the eve of the last stage, the Callaways fall has already been planned out " the man dressed in black suit answered, he turned to leave the room when he suddenly halted."
