“Speak!” Odious commanded, landing another slap on Williams's face, his cheek was now like one that had a tennis ball stuck in it,“I do not know what you are talking about.” Williams answered with a shaky voice, his voice sounding alien to him as it was now muffled. The blow had done a number on him,“Cecil and Louisa.” Adam helped to mention them, and Williams snapped his head up albeit painfully to gape at a smirking Adam,“And of course, Olivia Monae.” He added, and Williams lowered his gaze; he no longer had words for Adams as it was obvious that he knew everything. “I have no idea.” Williams managed to say, as he was trying to avoid another terrifying blow from Odious.Raul who had taken Leila and Ariel back home, came back in a hurry and stormed into the torture room, hot on his heel and panting heavily,As he did, he saw Adam pacing the floor, and his eyes darted around the room, before they settled their victim, which had him stumbling backwards,“Williams” He called ou
Dreymond stared at Adam, wondering why he was leaving such a crucial task to some others, the worst of to some dirty cops, who could go back and stab them at the back. No one made an objection, and it irked him, without delay, he cleared his throat and spoke up,“Why would you leave such a crucial task to a dirty cop?” He asked Adam as he sat back on the couch without moving his eyes an inch away from Adam, crossing his arms to his chest,“These cops can be bought,” Dreymond exclaimed and sneered, but before he could go on, Adam interjected him,“Not Olsen.” Adam replied, looking straight at Dreymond, “Not General Olsen.” He repeated and turned to Raul,Adam knew what he was doing; he knew that the border was not a place to wage war. It was a delicate place, and he would rather handle it the best way he could, which was to let General Olsen handle it; he was to be trusted as he had proven himself a worthy ally.Fighting at the border could endanger the country’s territory as enemie
Cecil sat on the floor, still staring at Stefan, who was also staring at her with his mouth agape. He had a mix of emotions coursing through him as he stared at her, his eyes were so bulged that they almost touched his eyebrows,He could not believe that Cecil had been messing with Adam Sanders and she was comfortably sitting right in front of him. Cecil could tell that he was having multiple emotions at the same time as his body language began to fluctuate, he went from blinking rapidly to gaping with his mouth opening and closing,“Do you have any idea of what you have gotten yourselves into?” He asked them as he stood up from the chair and began to walk around the room with sweaty palms,“Do you know what you are in for?” He asked them, raising his voice, and snapped his head at Cecil, then shook his head.He paced around the room as he thought of what to do; he knew Adam would be after these people, and now they were in his custody. He didn’t want to have anything to do with Adam
Stefan stopped in his tracks, unable to move an inch from his position. Louisa had hit the straw he had been avoiding and he was not going to let her do that. For a moment, he regretted the fact that he had stopped his car for them and wished he never did,“What did you say?” He asked her in a low tone, anger coursing through him as he approached her stealthily,Louisa snapped her head up to glare at him, “You heard what I said.” She said as she approached him, she loved the look on his face, it was obvious that he was scared and was never going to let her oust him,Cecil's eyes glowed and she nodded her head while staring at Louisa, she wouldn't let her beautiful daughter face the scoundrel alone,She glared at Stefan with a scowl on her face, ready to charge at him. She stepped right beside Louisa and glared intensely at Stefan,“Yes, Stefan!” Cecil began as she approached him,“One more move from you, and we oust you to Adam.” She said, nodding her head and stomping her foot, le
Cecil stood, watching Stefan pace around the room restlessly, she enjoyed the tension she was putting him through and she was not going to stop anytime soon, she loved him but he was an asshole, ‘Now I am ready to deal with your stupid ass.’ She mused as she continued watching him pace around the room. Louisa and Logan, who had been silent, stood as well, watching the entire scenario. Louisa surely wanted a part of the loot, after all, they were broke and left with nothing, but she didn't to run away from the country, She was looking forward to begging for forgiveness from Adam so that they could rekindle their marriage and she was going to go ahead with that plan, regardless of whatever her mother had to say. “Look, look.” Stefan finally spoke up, breaking the silence in the room and gaining everyone’s attention. “I know I have been a butthead,” he began as he had already mapped out a plan in his head, Several plans had clicked in his mind but he had to ditch them as
“What is it?” He asked, scornfully, he did not need any idea from her, he just needed her to agree with him so he could pull his plan off easily, Cecil cleared her throat and grinned softly, her eyes gleaming as she stared at him, “How about we flee with the loot?” She asked with a smile on her face as she thought her idea was very good. On the other hand, Stefan scoffed at her, “What do you mean, flee with the loot?” He asked, touching the base of his neck, as he stared at her, “Let’s run away with the loot; we can either disappear with it or hide it somewhere and give them a cock and bull story,” she said, explaining herself in detail, then paused for a while. “Think about this!” She urged, “We take the loot with us, and divert it to another location, then we go back to them after a few days and tell them we were attacked.” She explained, “We tell them we were attacked by a man named Adam Sanders and the loot was stolen by him and his men,” Cecil smirked at her sugge
It was dark in Adam’s den, and he was alone, his eyes were shut tight as he kept waiting for his men to bring him some update on their mission to the border, but it turned out to be what was going to take forever,Old man Thompson and Sage Robinson had left him in the den and headed out to get other things done. He ran his mind through the series of events of that day and he took a deep breath. Williams was now in his custody, and he could decide to kill him on the spot, but he was not willing to spill his blood, rather, he needed to put him through the exact type of pain that he put him through.“Young master!” Raul’s voice called out in the dark as he tried to figure out which exact part of the den his young master was, as he could not see through the total darkness that enveloped the entire room,“Raul.” He called out gently as he could see this figure moving around the room,“Behind you.” He replied and Raul turned around immediately, “We are back.” He said as he stared at his
Old Man Thompson could feel Adam's rage and knew it could get worse with Dreymond ending up hurt if he didn't dare interfere, and if that happened, it could ruin all the progress that had been made thus far, Without hesitating, he stepped in front of Adam, placing himself between him and Dreymond, blocking him from advancing further to the latter. He gave Adam a curt nod, and then shook his head briefly, before glancing backwards at Dreymond who had the decency to lower his head, “Pay him no attention,” He told Adam who was beginning to pant heavily while looking over the Old Man's shoulder at Dreymond, his hands clenched and unclenched while he stared. To try to calm himself, he closed his eyes and released a deep breath, Opening his eyes, Adam calmly stared at Old Man Thompson, focusing his gaze on him before finally raising his head to give Dreymond a final glare, the latter got the subtle message, and he nodded crisply, expelling a breath he never knew he held.
