Adrian got to the restaurant, and walked up the stairs, which took him to the rooftop. Just as Josephine said, the rooftop looked much better, even though Josephine meant his presence would make it look much beautiful than the first few times they went there.The breeze was inviting as the day was just beginning to end. It was certain that any conversation could go smoothly, especially if it was one in which they agreed on the same thing.“Alright, I’m here. Why have you asked to see me?” Adrian asked her as he slipped his hand into his pocket.Josephine scoffed lightly, and she sighed. “Well, don’t you recall you were the one who asked where I was?” She spoke, and folded her arms.“You obviously wanted to see me. I only asked for the location. And if you have nothing to say, I can just leave. I have better things to do.” Adrian uttered, looking like he didn’t care much, which truly, he didn’t. “Take a chill pill, Adrian. You always have this nonchalant attitude, and I believe it’s b

“Who the hell?” He managed to say, under his breath, before he fell to the ground, hoping that a bigger trouble won’t have occurred if he ever woke up.~The next time he woke up, he woke up on a bed, and the fact that he was bound in shackles, while on the bed, made him feel uncomfortable, and killed the thought that he might be in Andrew’s home.He tried to break free from the shackles, even when he knew that it was somehow impossible, due to how strong it was. “Who is out there! Get me out of this thing!” Adrian yelled out, in anger.He was tired of the whole thing. Having to jump from one fire to another fire of trouble, without even being able to bounce back at people doing these things.To him, he was beginning to feel like he hadn’t made a comeback at all.“I said get me out of these chains!” Adrian yelled out again, disgusted at the fact that it made him feel like he was a beast that they had to detain.Then the door opened, and he adjusted himself while he sat up. To his sho

Andrew placed a hand on his chin, “You can't lose it, Adrian. Damn, when’s this shit gonna finish?’ “Andrew, I feel weak.” Adrian said, feeling energy being drained and squeezed out of him while strange liquid oozed out from his head.“You know what? You're gonna have to hold your scream in, keep your consciousness because I will make the gash longer.”“What?” Adrian's head went fuzzy. He was going to feel that crazy pain in that same throbbing side of his head. “Just do it… but be careful I don't lose it, while you're still on it.” He said, and Andrew picked up his scalpel. Adrian watched it as it came closer, unable to take his eyes off. Finally, as it came so close, he shut his eyes tight, and felt the cool metal on a throbbing part of his head before it sunk in.“Andrew.” Adrian gritted out, not being able to scream as he send. The slice was sharp, painful, and he got scared that Andrew would cut a vein, and would end his life right there on the spot.He gripped his chains, pull

Andrew understood that he was still trying to pass through the phase of the mini surgery he had just had.“Adrian, try to calm down. Do not put too much pressure on yourself.” Andrew tried to caution him.Adrian couldn’t really hear what he said, so, he was still going through the excruciating pain which the high piercing sound, was giving him, at that moment.“Arrrgh.” Adrian grunted in pain.Andrew had no choice than to sedate him, as things could get worse if he left him that way.“I’ll be right back. Just hold on.” He urged, and then quickly left.He went into the little office he had in his home, and then searched through the trolley to get a syringe.“Yes.” He said as he found it, and then got what he needed, before he dashed back to the room which he kept Adrian.By then, Adrian had fallen to the ground, and was writhing in pain.“Shit” Andrew cursed, and quickly injected him with the syringe.Slowly, Adrian began to calm down and his breathing pace became normal. “Easy. Yes,

“Andrew?” Adrian called his name again, looking really perplexed.“Bingo!” Andrew voiced out, and smiled.Adrian’s concentration on Andrew shifted to the change that had occurred in his body, which was the fact that he couldn’t feel the pain which was intense, before. Not that the pain had gone numb; this particular one had disappeared completely.He had to touch his forehead as he could see that Andrew was staring at his forehead, with a smile, and to his surprise, it was as smooth the other parts of his face.“Oh, my goodness! Can you explain how on earth, this happened?” Adrian exclaimed, in shock.“It’s the system.” Andrew responded, with a smile as he came closer.“The system? How? I don’t seem to understand.”“The system had connected to the tissues, and every thing that makes up the skin and tissues around that place, to heal up quickly.” Andrew explained.“Did you know about this before?”“Uhm… Not really. But while I was making my research, I found out, and then discovered tha

Adrian moved closer to Lucas to know what was going on, and they both stepped into the office.“What’s going on?” Adrian asked, out of curiosity, and concern.“I traced Regina, and we both know that she has been frequenting Steve Wilson’s home, but there was a particular place which really brought about suspiciousness.” Lucas uttered as he turned on the tab, and Adrian’s eyes were fixed on it.“What place is that?” He asked, inquisitively.“Look. She drove off to a lonely building. From there, I already knew that something was wrong, so all I had to do was to wait, and see what was going on. I had to wait for about thirty minutes, while ensuring that my dash cam was capturing everything.”“Hmm.”“Look. Here, she came out with these men who obviously look dangerous, and she handed a scroll or something to them.”“Hmm. Which means they are on to something, and we’ve got to find out, before it catches us unaware.”“I know just how to make it easy for us.” Lucas spoke, and there was an int

The cops showed them the warrant to search the company, and the manager couldn’t do anything. Even when he wanted to excuse himself, Adrian ensured that the cops didn’t allow him to.He knew that there was a possibility that he might want to inform Steve Wilson, just so he would find a way to counter the situation. Adrian came prepared, so, there was nothing anyone could do, at this point.“Put a call through the secretary to bring out the general record of this company” Adrian ordered him, and the manager did that, reluctantly.Adrian was on his neck, staring at every process, and every thing he did, so he wouldn’t be able to do anything else.Adrian looked around the company, staring at how everyone seemed anxious, or curious about all that was going on. They had walked out all customers in the nicest way possible, so, none was angry, but understood that there was a situation going on.In a short while, the secretary brought the general record of the company, and Adrian stood while

Adrian waited until he stepped into his room, and hung his suit jacket, before he finally answered the call which had rung thrice already.“Aren’t you losing your cool by calling repeatedly?” Adrian teased, with a smile on his face.He was glad that he had struck a blow at Steve Wilson, and before he was going to untie the knot which he had created around his company, he hoped that he was going to make it tighter, by involving the Governor in it.“How dare you! Do you know you are a young boy, playing with fire!” Steve Wilson questioned, clearly raged by what was going on.Then Adrian chuckled.“Playing with fire? No. I’m using it to my advantage, which means I’m going to burn you seriously with it to an extent that you’ll regret you ever came across me.” Adrian spoke, now with a serious facial expression.“Really? You dared lock my company up?”“You mean the company which you hijacked from me. And you had the guts to run it in the worst way possible. I’m certain that my grandfather w

Adrian tried his best to unlock the padlock in the water, and thankfully, he did it and opened up the lid with all his might.“Lucas, now!” He instructed him and Lucas managed to place his right hand on the edge.“Sophie, you've got to get a hang of it. Once the water is absorbed and the bottom is removed, I won't be able to hols on to you.” Lucas uttered.Sophie gasped for breath as she poked her head out and she also managed to hold on to the edge.Suddenly, the bottom open just as Adrian predicted and all the water fell out.Arthur burst into laughter and began to clap his hands.“This is so interesting. Now, I know why father always talk about you, Adrian. You are really smart and have the the true traits of a leader. Having ten of you would build up an empire and run it well.” Arthur laughed out loud.“Will you get us out of here right now? And what do you plan on doing about Sophie. She's hurt, bleeding and in pain!” Adrian yelled, tossing the compliment he had just been given,

The trio fell into what seemed like an endless pit.“Ahhh!” They all continued to scream out loud, hoping they weren't falling to their death.Soon, they fell on something soft. They all couldn't see as it was dark, but they tried to stand.“I think this is foam.” Lucas said as he touched what was beneath them.Adrian and Sophie did the same thing, and they confirmed it was as well.“Where could we be?” Lucas asked, wondering what exactly Arthur was up to.“I have no idea. He totally changed everything.” Adrian responded looking around like he could see in the dark.“Shit.” Sophie cursed under her breath with no strength.Suddenly, the lights went on and they covered their eyes at first because it was sharp and had stung their eyes at first.“What the hell is this maniac planning!” Lucas yelled in frustration as he kept his face away from the light.Adrian felt a little anxious that things weren't going the way he had thought or guessed it could go.This way, he felt he could die for

Adrian stared at the woman as her cryptic words sunk deep into his head.She looked warily at him, then turned around to leave, and he only watched her dumbfoundedly.Suddenly, his phone began to ring out and he slid his hand into his pocket while still staring at the woman; leaving.As he brought his phone out, he had to take his eyes off the woman and focused on his phone. It was Sophie calling him.“Hey Sophie.”“Adrian, where are you? Lucas' home was blown up, and he isn't answering his calls. I don't know if he was in the house when the fire blew up.” Sophie informed him, sobbing hard.Adrian's heart skipped a beat and he became alarmed.“Where are you right now? Have you called the fire fighters?” Adrian questioned as he packed up the wine bottle and glasses, then hurried out of the cemetery.“I'm currently close to his house. And I called you immediately after informing the fire fighters.”“Shit! I'm on my way right now. Stay where you are.” Adrian voiced out over the phone.So

On the other hand was Rose. She was alone in the lab even though there were some others somewhere else.Arthur's lab was a big one, so, there were more people like her working for him. The only thing was that she was more like the head of the scientists as she was most skilled, and he relied on her to get so many things done.Rose wasn't happy about it because Arthur was gradually turning what she loved doing into something she wanted to avoid so much.She was meant to use her skills and knowledge to help people and make life better, but instead, he made her use it to murder people and choose people who would live or die in some situations.But at the same time, she couldn't run away because she was indebted to him. When they were a little younger, she was brought into their house to be a helper; someone that had a bit of a higher rank than the maids.And that was because her father had owed a huge debt and Steve Wilson paid it, but asked for her to be a helper for years which the mon

Lucas also just left the elevator and saw Adrian on the floor, groaning in pain. He quickly rushed to him out of worry.“Hey! Adrian!” He called out to him, and shook him to get a hold of himself.Adrian opened his eyes with cold beads of sweat on his forehead, then he looked at Lucas, and looked at his stomach, but there was no wound or anything.“The man who just left. Did you see any man?” Adrian asked, looking baffled.“No. You were the only one in the hallway. What’s going on?”Adrian checked his stomach again and confirmed that nothing had really happened to him, and if he were to believe Lucas, it meant that something was wrong with his mind.“Did Rose drop a contact?” Adrian asked as Lucas helped him up.“Oh! Yeah, yeah, she did. Is there a problem?” Lucas asked again, completely confused on what exactly was going on with Adrian.“I need to ask her a question. I just saw a man, and you claim there was no man. And… he stabbed me. But I can’t see any trace of any wound on me.”“

“What did you do to him?” Lucas asked, out of curiosity.“I didn’t really do anything. He probably just had the best sex of his life.” Sophie answered, and folded her arms.“You know you’re beginning to confuse me, right?” “Don’t worry. You’re going to get the details son.” Sophie assured him, wanting to get over this as soon as possible.Shortly after Sophie responded, the guard walked out of that room and approached them.“The boss has agreed for you to take the antidote. Follow me.” He urged, and both Sophie and Lucas followed after him.They were led into a stall which was filled with so many drugs, and some were probably antidotes for reactions. Then they got to a particular shelf where there was just one antidote standing it.“This is the antidote for the Blue Rash. Mix it with a little amount of water, and then you can inject it into the affected patient.” The guard gave them the simple instructions.“Alright, thanks so much.” Lucas appreciated the instructions, and he and Sop

Lucas and Sophie shared shocked glances at each other. They weren't expecting that he would actually ask for something like that."Her?""Yes. Just a one-time thing. If you will agree right now, then we would get on with it quickly." Bear uttered as he spread his arms on his couch.Lucas felt annoyed. He wondered why people always had to take advantage of those who needed something from them."Why can't you just do us a favor if you really want to do us a favor? It's unfair that you want to have her and then have a good amount of money with you." Lucas said, expressing his annoyance and how unfair it felt for him."Yeah, I understand. But life is unfair actually. So, if you want the herb , decide fast. I've not got all the time to waste in the world." Bet spoke, without looking merciful.Then Sophie rose to her feet looking determined."If it's me you want to have, then you'll have me. Let's get on with it immediately." Sophie uttered, looking like she had already made her resolve."S

The next day, Adam arrived at Adrian’s home and he was ushered to Adrian’s room.“Gosh. This is the purple rash. Extremely dangerous.”“Oh, my goodness.” Sophie said softly and placed her hand over her mouth.“It’s a reaction of a particular drug which has been long forgotten, so, not many people would have its antidote. Even I do not have the antidote. But I know someone who might have it. They are a group of men who are into drug business and might have the antidote you are looking for. But you must play it carefully with them.” Adam informed them.“Give us an address. We’ll head right there. Andrew, you coming?”“I wish I could, but I’ve got something really important to take care of, and you shouldn’t wait until I’m done because Adrian’s life is on the line.”“Alright.”“I hope you are aware I’m tagging along, and we do not really need to get more people to follow us. We aren’t going for a fight, and gangs always have a feeling you’re coming for a fight when you arrive in numbers.

“Do I know you from somewhere, perhaps?” Adrian asked, still staring at him in confusion.Then the man chuckled and let out a sigh.“It really is a beautiful day. Been waiting for this day, and now, I finally have it.” He uttered.Adrian managed to sit up, but was still feeling a little light-headed, so he leaned on the pillows that were provided for him.“Who are you?” Adrian asked, followed by a grunt.“I am Arthur Wilson, son of Steve Wilson whom you took down.” He introduced himself, now looking serious.Even though Adrian saw the resemblance, he was still shocked that it was truly Steve Wilson’s son. Since he was the one, it meant he was out to take revenge.“I see you’re here to take revenge for your father. But let me tell you one thing. Your revenge is no way justified.” Adrian said, with clenched teeth.Arthur cackled and did a one-time spin, then moved closer to Adrian.“You really think you get to decide what’s justified or not? You must be kidding me. My father might have
