The Return of Adam Sanders CHAPTER SEVENTY-SIX
Logan’s car was bad, and with no money to fix it and Williams’ blunt refusal to help, he had no choice but to resort to public means of transportation. He had been at the bus stop awaiting his bus when he sighted Adam. Adam wasn't dressed in a tattered manner or shabbily and it had Logan a little confused. They had been unable to discover the bastard’s new location, it was surprising when they got word from someone they had sent to threaten Adam’s family that the house was empty, they still had no clue where he could be found. His phone vibrated in his pocket and he quickly brought it out and placed it on his ear, answering the call “Where's the fool now!? Hope you haven't lost sight of him?! I need to know where that bastard is headed” Williams kept barraging him with questions and Logan couldn't help but roll his eyes while his face tightened. “Well, I'm still trying to trail them, but he seems to be going into a car and I can't possibly trace him with a bus or train” “Arg
The Return of Adam Sanders CHAPTER SEVENTY-SEVEN
Still staring emotionlessly at the burly man, Adam waited for his reply. He had an inkling about what was happening but chose to remain calm and mute, wanting to see how it would play out. Frowning, the man narrowed his eyes at him before he responded in a challenging tone, “Orders from above, or do you have anything to do about it?” With his hands still placed in his pocket, Adam shook his head, and shrugged once again, “I would like to speak with the person in charge. I do not have the time for this” The man sneered once more, tipping his head back, he answered with a bark of laughter, “The orders came from the person in charge, how about that?” Adam’s mouth twitched at the side, it was a pity the fool standing before him didn't know who he was, and was just overly carrying out the instructions given to him; if he wanted to, he could have the guy stripped of his job and buy the company leaving both him and his supposed person in charge jobless. Still, Adam uttered no wo

Chagrined to see their partners out of sorts, the other guys bared their teeth and charged at Adam. Adam deftly dealt a bone-crushing blow to their faces, causing them to fall to the ground, disoriented and blood dripping from their nostrils. Williams, Logan and the security man who had intercepted Adam were all transfixed, their eyes bulging in their sockets with their bodies unable to move as they watched in horror. The security man was aghast within him, he couldn't believe that the person he had tried intimidating was solely taking on five men who were his size and a little bigger. With the four of his colleagues writhing and squirming on the floor, the one who had been run into, picked up the machete beside him and hurled it at Adam. Sensing his intention and movement, Adam deftly swung his head and body away, the machete went crashing through the glass of the restaurant, and the shattering of glass and the clanking of the weapon got the attention of those around. “Tsk tsk, yo

Looking around to find out who had spoken, everyone’s attention fell on the man who had spoken and was dressed splendidly. He disregarded their curious gaze as he walked towards Adam. Mr Candace from Light Voice Press was smiling heartily as he did. Ignoring the kneeling man before Adam, he beamed when he got to Adam, the piece he had done for Adam in his newspaper and the continuous one had earned him a bigger promotion, minus the money Adam had given to him, suffice to say he was Adam’s number one fan. “Is he not one of the journalists at Light Voice Press? He knows the martial artist guy?” “I heard he recently became the editor-in-chief and a part-owner as well!” “I wonder if this will be in the news tomorrow. It would be such juicy gossip, and I can boast to my colleagues that I saw it firsthand” the person who spoke up laughed to herself, Some members of the crowd spoke as they saw him approach. Candace was a known face in the public, and because of the damage or praise he co
The Return of Adam Sanders CHAPTER EIGHTY
At Williams' and Logan’s departure, everyone cheered and began to disperse, leaving only Adam, Adrien, Candance and Frank, as well as the taxi man who was hoping to get his fare money from Adam, seeing as Williams didn't pay him. The burly security man stood as well, transfixed at the entire situation, just by following orders, he would have been in trouble or would have ended up like the three men whom the man had beaten up. A part of him was grateful for the arrival of Williams and his goons, if they hadn't arrived, he probably would have gotten the beating of his life, and he shuddered at that thought. Frank, who was still unsure about his standing with Adam, slowly approached Adam to once again apologise “Sir, I sincerely apologise for my foolish act. It was out of ignorance, please do not be offended” he begged in a quiet voice, with his head hanging low while his eyes looked at Adam. “I will have the best table in our restaurant prepared for you right away, bills on the house
The Return of Adam Sanders CHAPTER EIGHTY-ONE
Williams sat in his office, a twinkle in his eyes as he leaned back in his office chair, a relaxed smile crossing his face. The day was turning out to be a good day for him, and he sighed in satisfaction at the thought. After his public humiliation once again at Frank’s restaurant, he received a mail a few days later, the person who had sent the mail had offered to invest in his company and help build it back. Apparently, the man had seen the disgrace and wanted to help out, he had Adam to thank for that. They had been communicating via emails and calls since then, the man sought to invest a whooping five billion into his company, and at the thought of the money, Williams's chest puffed out. He was back in business, and his finances were beginning to look up and he couldn't wait for the man to send the first part of the money. Per their agreement, Williams would remain the acting CEO, only known to him and Mr Dulaney, his investor. He had the man checked out, and Mr Dulaney was
The Return of Adam Sanders CHAPTER EIGHTY-TWO
At Raine’s mansion, all of Adam’s family were gathered in the living room area of the house, and Adam couldn't help but be thankful, looking at each of them, only one person was missing in the mix and she would complete them soon. Over the last few months, his adopted family had grown close to his grandfather and Raul, and Adam was grateful to Marcus for embracing them and leaving his doors open to them. Hector, his father, was seated beside his grandfather deeply engrossed in a conversation, the glass of whiskey they held in their hands hadn't been downed for a while. He couldn't help the smile that escaped his lips as he watched Hector, he had sure come a long way from the badly beaten up and head-wrapped man he had come back home to meet. Seated in front of him was a robust man who was full of life, and now had a twinkle in his eyes, Hector’s worries had greatly reduced, the load off his shoulders, therefore he had begun to look way younger than his years. Glancing around t
The Return of Adam Sanders CHAPTER EIGHTY-THREE
With his phone on his lap, Adam used his free hand to continuously rub through his face and hair. Getting to his feet, he began pacing the ground, they were so close but he didn't want to mess this up, one wrong move and it could all blow up into flames, the thought alone had his heart racing, he couldn't afford any mistakes. “Adam? Are you there? I'll send you the address shortly, but I'm still hanging around the area. I gotta be careful here too, we are dealing with ruthless and terrible people. We can't afford to fail” Adam’s silence over the phone had Anderson a little worried, yet he kept up with the conversation. "I have an intel that says it best to do this soon. I think you should involve the force in this, and inform the police as well. Handling them alone isn't ideal" With his eyes closed, Adam pinched his nose bridge not saying anything, his head and mind racing with different thoughts. Even if he could single-handedly handle a whole army, he still needed to tread with

Chapter 1. (A glimpse into The Unrefined Jason Lee)
September 29th 2009, “W-here's where's m-my Angel?” As Jason opened his eyes, he looked around, dazed. The eyes felt too heavy to be opened, but he refused to close them. As his eyes rested on the strange man, he blinked rapidly, "W-who are y-you?” he questioned while staring intently at the man, "For now, that's not important. You'll get to know me in time, but right now, we need to leave this shack! Your life is in danger!” The strange man muttered, his eyes darting between the shack and the door. Hearing the urgency in the man's voice, chills crept down Jason's frail body, and he gulped, returning his gaze to the man, he blinked once more, "W-what do you m-mean? I'm safe here, nobody will ever think to f-find me in a shack” The strange man scoffed, and shook his head, “Boy, if only you knew”, was his curt response, and as Jason watched him, he struggled to sit up against the bare and flat mattress that lay on the floor. The more Jason stared around his surroundings

CHAPTER FOUR HUNDRED & ONE
Adam was back in the basement, and he walked straight to the den of the old man, with Raul trailing behind him. He walked into the den and met the Old Man and Sage Robinson already sitting and waiting for him. They had heard the news and were waiting to congratulate him. “The man of the moment,” Dreymond called out from the corner where he was seated and Adam turned to see him and Amber seated together. Adam had not seen Amber since the other day at the coast brother’s basement and he was glad that she was recuperating. Old man Thompson stood up and walked towards Adam as they both approached each other. The old man saw the passion in his eyes and stopped. He tapped him on the shoulder and nodded his head, and everyone in the room had to do the same. That was the brotherhood way of celebration, “Weldon Adam,” The old man said and patted him on both sides of his shoulder. He was in prison with Adam, and he knew how he had fought for this moment, and he was very proud to be part of

After Adam had dropped her off, Leila walked into their home with sweaty palms, occasionally biting at her lips,She tried to keep her cool and not let her nerves get the best of her. She had already told Joan that she would be back just in time for their dad's arrival, and now, she had probably missed that. She walked into the living room gently, trying to be as silent as possible, hoping not to bump into either Joan or her father she tried to sneak in but she faltered in her steps with popping eyes to discover both of them in the sitting room discussing,“Leila.” Her dad called out gently as she walked in, with her gaze lowered and her fingers crossed at her back,“Come here, princess.” Her father said, spreading out his arms to receive her in for a hug. “I am sorry I was not here to welcome you, papa.” She whispered tearfully as she hugged her father tightly,“I know I have disappointed you; please forgive me, papa.” She said as she continued to let it rain with her tears.“I am

Seeing the expression on Mira's face, her mother quickly ran towards her and immediately grabbed the phone out of her hand, glancing at Adam before glancing at the phone, and as she did, her hands began shaking and her eyes popped out, also gasping like her daughter, “W-what. Un-unbelievable, Im-po-ssible” she kept stuttering and looking dazedly at Adam, Mira gaped at her empty hand, and back at Adam, her mouth agape. She swallowed and looked at him, “Fifty million euros, Adam?" As soon as she revealed the amount, everyone around gasped and turned their gaze at Adam, whose cheeks were turning slightly red; he nodded subtly at Mira while Leila stood staring at him unabashedly, grinning from ear to ear. Still smiling a little, Adam informed a still-stunned Mira, “One of my men will reach out to you, I'd like for you to head one of my companies. You were instrumental in my daughter's well-being as well as meeting a great woman" he cast a glance at Leila and she blushed. Madam Ruth
CHAPTER THREE HUNDRED & NINETY-EIGHT
Once again Madam Ruth burst into a loud laughter, clutching her stomach as she did. Every other person watched as she laughed, Mira on the other hand gaped at Adam, unable to string any words together,A part of her was certain the reveal was true as there was something about Adam that was quite different and he didn't seem like a pauper the way her mother had made him out to be.Leila's eyes darted at Adam, and she tried holding their gaze to confirm it, but Adam wasn't looking at her; his face was almost blank, sans the little smirk she caught on his face. She found herself wondering if whatever he had to reveal was in line with what had just been revealed.Madam Ruth once again cut short her laughter and spluttered, glancing at the manager as she spoke in a disbelieving voice,“Are you blind or what? Or perhaps you hit your head on the way here," she deduced mockingly, and the man sneered at her, refraining from deeming her with a reply.The man, alongside others, ignored her, as A
CHAPTER THREE HUNDRED & NINETY-SEVEN
“What do you mean by that?!" Leila asked, nearly shrieking as she stared at him, and in return, Adam nodded,Leila continued to gape at him, she was a mix of confusion and shock at what Adam had said, even if he hadn't elaborated on it,“W-what do you mean, Adam?" She questioned, focusing her gaze on him, Adam sighed and expelled a breath simultaneously, sitting upright on his seat, he opened his mouth to respond,“I'm the lost heir of Mar…”Before he could continue, a loud voice broke through his response, and the voice was oddly familiar,"What do you mean my payment didn't go through?! Who the bloody hell are you?! Do you even know who I am?!” The voice thundered, flying out of her seat to land a hot unexpected slap on the stunned waiter’s face,“Mother!!!" her daughter chided beside her and she turned to glare at her,“If you can't defend your mother, then stay out of my way!" Adam turned towards the direction and wasn't surprised to see a snarling Ruth with a downcast Mira stand

CHAPTER THREE HUNDRED & NINETY-FIVE
“Are you shocked?” Adam asked Cecil as he slowly and gently began to walk closer to her. Cecil, who was now filled with fear, could only stare at Adam, at that moment, Stefan’s words began to ring in her head. ‘That man is dangerous, very very dangerous.’ She reminisced and her eyes of their own accord began to water, as she subtly shook her head from side to side, retracting her steps as Adam advanced further,He paused in his steps and turned to face the uniformed men,“These are the culprits" he informed the waiting women who glared at Cecil with death in their eyes, causing her to shiver,“They are the ones who framed me for rape.” Adam continued, pointing to William, Louisa and her mother. Cecil was speechless as she gaped with an open mouth; she couldn't believe Adam had found out about that; they had contacted a very highly profiled criminal to carry out the foul play, and she had been certain there was no way Adam would be able to get his hands on that lady.“What sort of ac
