Nicolas continued to drive as usual, maintaining the façade that he hadn’t noticed the sleek white Maybach tailing him.His vast experience in situations like this knew that he had to play it calm and cool, otherwise the person behind the wheel of the Maybach would not fall into his carefully layered web.Nicolas continued to drive calmly, making calculated turns and manoeuvres across the highway, showcasing his superior driving skills.He could have easily left the white Maybach in the dust as he was driving a very expensive sports car, but he decided not to.He needed to know the identity of the person behind the wheel of the Maybach, and tie up loose ends, otherwise they might come back to bite him in the ass.Nicolas continued to drive calmly, speeding up and slowing down at various intervals, and after more than twenty minutes of a cat and rat chase, he finally ended up at a secluded alleyway with no way front.Nicolas parked the car neatly and alighted from his automobile, and t
The unrelenting rain turned the alleyway into a primeval arena, where the two men, Nicolas and Zack, were engaged in a fierce battle with one other.The rain was relentless, pounding the earth, turning the ground to sludge, and setting the stage for a battle not just between two formidable opponents, but against the fury of nature itself.The stronger of the two, which was undoubtedly Nicolas appeared as a behemoth with shoulders as broad as the horizon to his opponent Zack.It was not just Zack who found him terrifying; Trevor Spanner did as well. That was how intimidating he appeared to be.In respect of the fact that he had a large amount of expertise in combat, the actions that he needed to take came so easily to him. Furthermore, given the heavy rain that was falling, it was not surprise that he took advantage of the weather.Each and every one of his movements was meticulously planned out, and his blows were pinpoint accurate and had the force of a thunderbolt, with each one hit
There was a scowl on Nicolas's incredibly gorgeous face, and the cause for the frown was not the heavy rain that showed no sign of relenting as it pelted him; rather, the frown became apparent as a result of what he heard after he listened to Trevor Spanner's response.As he had anticipated, it turned out that the owner of the briefcase that he had taken from Neptune had been searching for it, and it just so happened that they discovered it at the very moment the briefcase was in his possession.How unfortunate.If they had looked for it a little bit later, he would have already departed for overseas, and there would have been no need for him to be troubled by the owner of the briefcase.Nevertheless, that was not the situation at this time."Is that all?" Nicolas inquired in a chilly manner, his grip on Trevor's costly suit collar becoming more firm as he extended his hand.“Yes!” The expression of savage rage that appeared in Nicolas's piercing blue irises caused Trevor Spanner to y
Nicolas drove back to his Blue Diamond Villa in his expensive Lamborghini sports car, a contemplative expression on his face as he did so.The heavy rain had relented, but it was only by a little difference, to the extent that it was almost unnoticeable. The residents of Stormwind City inside their rooms would barely be able to tell the difference in how the rain had lessened. They were most probably only waiting for the rain to completely stop falling before they stepped out and continued their activities.Nonetheless, Nicolas did not care a single bit about the heavy rain at all. On the contrary, he was completely occupied by the words Trevor Spanner.He never expected that the harmless decision he made to take a drive would lead to such a surprising and shocking discovery from Trevor Spanner. Still, he was glad that he made the decision that he did, otherwise he wouldn’t have run into Trevor Spanner and his goon so early.Nicolas tightened his grip on the steering wheel of his exot
The next day, Nicolas moved quickly to wrap up the briefcase issue. He was already quite tired of the butterfly effects that occurred from him occupying the briefcase.Following Trevor’s Spanner ingenious idea, he created a similar and watered down version of the blueprint in the briefcase, and put it in another briefcase he purchased for the sole purpose of fulfilling Trevor Spanner’s idea.Naturally, he had a very intelligent mind, so he still remembered every single encryption that was on the original briefcase, as well as the passwords to bypass the encryption, so the only thing it took for him to recreate a hundred percent replica of the original briefcase was time, which he had enough of.In less than thirty minutes, the replica of the briefcase was placed on the table right in front of him, with quite a contented smirk on his extremely handsome face.Of course, the altered version of the blueprint was secured firmly inside the replicated briefcase as well.It was all in a day’s
The Clinton Group HQ, Stormwind City.The very luxurious lobby of the Clinton Group was buzzing with visitors, a blend of potential clients and partners moving quickly, all drawn to the company's skyrocketing success; after all who wouldn’t want to be associated with such a successful business group.The pretty receptionists managed a symphony of phone calls, their screens flickering with calendar alerts and emails that piled up faster than they could hit 'reply'.The business was on a different level than they usually handled before the Clinton Group rose to fame.The elevators pinged continuously, transporting employees to their respective battlegrounds, which was of course their offices.On every floor, open-plan offices buzzed with the clatter of keyboards, as marketers, developers, and strategists contributed to the growth of the business group with scary precision.The air crackled with the urgency of success, with every team member tuned to the frequency of 'get things done'.I
The Blue Diamond Villa, Stormwind City.It was 2 p.m. in the afternoon, and Nicolas was as relaxed as he could be.He was currently laying leisurely on his king sized bed, while reading a news article about the economic state of the business world overseas.He had been away from the Nacht Group headquarters for close to a year, and since he was planning to make his return soonest, he needed to know the current economic state of the business world overseas. That way, he would easily and seamlessly continue to give brilliant and innovative ideas that would help his Nacht Group.As for the current business groups Nicolas had helped grow massively, such as the Clinton Group, XENO Group as well as other business groups under the Clinton Group banner, Nicolas was now thoroughly and completely done with leading them.This also applied to Killian Russell’s and his Russell family. He had already laid down the total ground work for everything to go Killian Russell’s way. It was now up to Killia
The moment Nicolas heard those words from Detective Oliver, his world instantly turned blank and the atmosphere in his luxurious study room instantly changed.His luxurious study room was naturally thick with the scent of mahogany and leather-bound books. A grand fireplace crackled softly in the background, its warm glow casting dancing shadows across the room.Naturally, in the heart of this opulent sanctuary, the room was filled with utter tension and agitation, and on the extremely handsome face of Nicolas, was the coldest expression he had ever had since he stepped foot into Stormwind City.His features were sharply cut, the kind of handsome that didn't just turn heads but stopped time itself. His glossy black hair, which was usually impeccably styled, now fell in slight disarray due to the hours he spent poring over different news articles and reports.His heart was currently ablaze with rage, but it wasn’t the regular rage, but the icy, merciless and ruthless rage the apex preda
