Adam drove the car as fast as he could as he headed towards the woods. He needed to get into the basement through the secret entrance as instructed by Old Man Thompson.He needed to get to the basement as fast as he could, his men needed him and he had to end this feud between his squad and the mafias once and for all. He had to end it and get Olivia back into his captivity,“Argghh!” Adam groaned, a pained expression on his face as he turned the car, immediately running into a tree he had seen, but hadn't manoeuvred probably, crashing the front of his car,“What the hell?” He grumbled, letting out a loud sigh, as he smashed the brakes with his leg,Adam was getting frustrated as everything seemed to be working against him. Firstly, he was made to turn his car around as the mafias had launched an attack on the base at the wrong time, Now he had foolishly crashed his car, an avoidable accident that could have claimed his life, and he was grateful he came out unhurt,He was without a
Raul tried warning Adam of the imminent danger and to alert him of the situation at hand,“The Old Man has been held captive!” Raul said while still struggling to maintain his balance and defend himself, Adam's ears tingled as he heard what Raul had said, rage filling him from within, knowing they held his mentor captive had him maddened, he didn't want the old man involved in any fight.“Young Master, we would handle these guys,” Raul said as he continued to fight, not caring about his injured head,“We have called in reinforcements,” Raul added, trying to convince Adam to leave.Adam saw the reassuring look in Raul’s eyes and nodded his head, he knew he could trust Raul to defend himself, but he also had to save the Old Man's life at all costs. With a nod of his head, he began running out of the place as fast as he could, fending away and dealing with anyone that came to his path, bamboozling his way through the troops of the mafia men, flinging them like they were weightless pape
At the command, the men charged towards Adam with grim determination,The first man charged at him angrily and Adam immediately grabbed him by the neck and twisted it into an unnatural position, quickly grabbing his gun and using the butt to injure a few of the incoming,Seeing their teams in such a state, the remaining became livid and they ran in their numbers, intending to attacktearnd tearing him down.Smirking, Adam invited them with his hands, drawing them in,“Bring it on.” He said with a smirk as he watched them charging at him, he dropped to his knees and stretched his hands waiting for the men to get closer,The men approached him and he grabbed the first two by the neck and sent them flying into the air, the duo crashed into a few of their members and they all came crashing down.From his side vision, Adam could see one of the men bringing out a dagger and he immediately swooped on him, promptly breaking his neck. In a flash, Adam retrieved the dagger and began slashing th
Vance tightened his grip on the old man’s neck and the old man could not fight back as his hands had been tied tight against the wall,He kept strangling the old man until he began to cough, coughing intensely and he began to bleed from his nose and mouth. Vance wasn't bothered by it, and he grinned smugly before he let go of Old Man Thompson's neck, his head instantly hitting the wall hard.Fear gripped Amber and chills ran down her spine, she had always known Vance the viper to be a dangerous bastard and knew he could double-cross Adam at any point. Her tongue itched to speak, but she refrained herself, if the bastard could get to the old man, as well as Adam, he would make mincemeat out of her, it was no news that there was no love lost between them. Biting her lips hard, she kept mute, her eyes and lips stinging.As if Old Man Thompson could sense her fears, he opened his eyes and signalled Amber with them to find a place to hide, Vance was leaving no prisoners and could get to he
“Amber!!!” Adam and Old Man Thompson exclaimed at the same, just as Adam raised his head to find the culprit,Before Adam could say a word, Raul and Adrian barged into the room and Adrian immediately jumped at the man, before using his elbow to break his wide pipe, causing him to choke and die.Adam, Raul and Old Man Thompson hurriedly ran towards Amber who was lying on the floor in a pool of blood,Old Man Thompson placed a hand on her chest to feel her heartbeat, as he needed to make sure she was still alive, the bullet had hit a sensitive area; her midriff section.“She’s alive!” He exclaimed and took a deep breath, gradually releasing his pent-up breath, struggling to his feet he “Get her to my table.”He immediately ordered, and Raul lifted her straight onto the table, as Old Man Thompson resumed work on her, trying to get the bullet out of her.While they stood watching the old man trying to heal Amber, Adam became weak and drowsy as he had lost a lot of blood. He tried to fi
Leila, who had been crying since Adam left the hospital sat on grass in the garden as she needed to be alone, away from everyone. Sighing to herself, she stood up abruptly and went straight into her father’s room, “I would like to go home, Papa.” She said to her father who had been staring at her gloomy eyes. “You have been crying, Leila.” He said to her while sitting up, his heartstrings tugged at her countenance, “Papa, get some rest, I’ll be back in no time,” Leila responded, deflecting his words, “The driver is already here and he will take me home.” She added, trying to convince her father that she would be fine. “I will be back soon papa, I just need to clear my head.” She said and leaned in to give her father a peck on the cheeks. “By papa!” She said waving at her father and trying to feign a smile. “Leila!” Her father called out. “Do not cry anymore.” Her father to her with a pale face, he knew that she was hurt but he did not like seeing his daughter cry. It broke his
Williams’ home had been engulfed with silence as they all refused to speak to each other, it was as though the house was on fire and every single plot of theirs had backfired,Louisa who was sitting in the study was focused on her phone intensely while Williams stared at her from the bar. He was having a bottle of beer with a cigarette in his mouth while glaring at Louisa intensely.‘What is she up to?’ He wondered to himself as he watched her closely, since the previous fight he had not had a conversation with her, and needed to know what had consumed her that had given her the bravery to fight him back.She had to either be seeing someone else, which he wouldn't be surprised as she had betrayed her husband for him, or she had swallowed a herb that gave her audacious wings he mused to himself, ‘The gut is surely from someone or something’ he muttered with a nod and puffed his cigar.Cecil sat, staring blankly into the air, not paying attention to anyone, trying to put her thoughts t
At Dreymond’s basement, Old man Thompson had administered some treatment to Adam’s injured back and had given him some antidote for the poison. He administered the poison antidote to make sure the poison did not eat further into his body parts,He moved to a conscious Amber, the bullet had been pulled out of her and she was lying on the bed, looking very weak and pale.The old man stared at her with gleaming eyes and a satisfied smile while he watched her gently drifting her eyes open,“Amber.” He called out gently as he watched her.Groaning, Amber turned slightly to gaze at him,“How is Adam?” She asked, her voice raspy and croaky, her throat felt parched. “How are you feeling?” Old man Thompson asked her instead, ignoring her question about Adam, he knew she was in love with Adam and he also knew that the superiority in Adam did not make him love her as much as she wanted, and that was why she took the bullet for him. To prove her love for him.“I don't know.” She said with a whi
