“Adrian?” Damien voiced out, looking surprised, but somehow, that surprised look held a hint of sneer.“Yeah, it’s me.” Adrian smiled, overlooking that.When some of his classmates bullied Adrian for being so poor, Damien would always tell them that Adrian could turn out to be wealthy, someday. And even when the other kids laughed, Adrian had always taken that word as a ray of hope.“Wow. It’s been a long time since I saw you. The last time I saw you, you were still looking for a job.” Damien reminded him, and Adrian laughed a little.“Yes, that’s right. So, you work here?” Adrian asked, happy that Damien found a good job, and was certainly living a good life.“Yeah, I do. What about you? You came here for a job or what?” Damien asked, out of heightened curiosity.“No. The receptionist called you minutes ago, to inform you of a client who is here to acquire a building. I’m the client.” Adrian gladly told him.He was happy to let him know that, just so he could refer to those times whe

“Consider it done.” Austin Clementon spoke and then signaled his guards to get Damien out of the office.“Thanks for your cooperation.” Adrian appreciated him, with a smile.“It’s my pleasure. Please let’s go over to the office to get some paperwork done.” Austin Clementon urged, and both Adrian and Sophie followed him.But before they got into the elevator, they saw Damien being dragged out, and when Damien spotted them, he immediately ran to meet Mr. Clementon.“Sir, these people are nothing but fraudsters. Don’t take them in.” Damien voiced out, pointing his hands at both Adrian and Sophie.“And that is the reason you got fired. Because you do not have the ability to recognize potential customers. Just imagine, you would have sent him away when even most of my able customers were finding it difficult to buy it.” Mr. Clementon complained.“What!” Damien exclaimed softly.“Yes. And he has insisted that you get fired. Next time, you watch your mouth.” Mr. Clementon spoke, with a glare

Adrian walked up to the reception, with one hand in his pocket, and then looked at the woman, crying, hopelessly.“Good morning, sir. How can I help you?” The receptionist asked, politely, with a smile on her face. “I’d like to pay up her children’s hospital bills,” Adrian said to her.And on hearing that, the woman looked up at him, shocked. She rose to her feet immediately, with her eyes tearing up.“Sir, did you just say paying up my kids’ hospital bills?” She asked again, to be certain she heard right.“Yes, I did. I’m going to pay up your kids’ hospital bills.”“Oh, my goodness. I can’t believe it, sir. Thank you so much. Thank you very much, sir.” The woman appreciated him, more and more.“You’re welcome, ma’am,” Adrian responded and then turned to the receptionist, who was beaming with smiles.“So, how much is it?” Adrian inquired, and brought out his card.“Both her kids’ hospital bills sum up to 2 million dollars.” The receptionist responded politely.Adrian found it difficu

That night, Adrian would have shared his testimony about how he was helped by someone he had once offered assistance to, but he couldn’t, because anything about the system, was confidential, and he shouldn’t be telling anyone about it.“So, cheers to our first progress.” Adrian raised a toast, and both Sophie and Lucas raised their glasses of wine and clinked it.“Yeah!” Lucas voiced out happily, and they all had their seats. “So, I have put it up that we’re in need of workers, in the tech field, and I have been receiving emails of their CVs. It’s so difficult to choose any, because they’re all good.” Lucas spoke, with a smile, revealing his nice set of teeth.“I understand things like that. Sophie should also be in charge of that. Pick the ones you feel should be elected, and then we send them an email to come for an interview, tomorrow morning. I think by 11 am, they should have checked their mail or something.” Adrian spoke and sipped his wine.“Yeah, they should have. I’m going to

Adrian didn’t know if he was to move closer to her, or not. He decided that he would act like he didn’t hear what she said, and was going to stay for a while, before walking up to her.At least, she wouldn’t know that he had been here, all along, because she seemed too occupied with her present mood.Although, he wondered why she wanted to kill him, even after saving her grandfather,“Why would she still be after me, even when she had made it clear that we had nothing binding us.” Adrian thought to himself as he stared at her.Then he took steps forward until he got close to her.“Never thought I would see you.” He spoke as he also placed his hands on the trail. Then Talia glared at him, with so much hate, visible in her eyes.“Oh! I thank the heavens that you’re alive.” She said, and sneered at him.“I should take that as an insult, I guess,” Adrian uttered as he looked far beyond the river.“Whatever you wish.” She spoke harshly.“And why are you suddenly sounding too harsh? Isn’t

Adrian turned away from her, not in the mood to even deal with someone as despicable as she was.“Are you trying to run from shame? Acting all big, and something?” Adrian turned back at her, beginning to get annoyed at the way she was speaking to him.“I think you should just stop, and leave. I’m not here for you.” Adrian uttered sharply and turned to the attendant waiting for him. “I’d like to have a black leather bag.”“Alright, this way, sir.”Regina rolled her eyes and blocked his path before he would make a step, further.“Rather than watch my ex-husband, make fun of himself, I would leave. I’m so happy no one knew we were once married. If not, it would be so difficult for me to raise my head up high.” She voiced out sharply, meaning to hurt Adrian to the bones, but none of it got to him.He watched as she walked out of the store, and then turned to the attendant, whose head was dropped down, to show respect.“Please show me.” He urged and followed her the moment she began walki

“Gotcha!” Lucas voiced out, heartily, then turned to both Adrian and Mr. Daniel. “It wasn’t easy, but I managed to find him, using an extra-something, you know.” Lucas said, with so much pride.He had put so much focus on it, and wanted to badly get it done, just so that Mr. Daniel wouldn’t have anything on them, whatsoever. And now that he got it, he couldn’t help, but show how happy he was, to have gotten the job done.Adrian smiled, and then turned to Mr. Daniel.“Now, you have your man. And here is his location, and I’ll advise you go in a way that none of his minions would alert him, when they sight you, getting closer.” Adrian spoke, with a little concern.“Thank you. I really appreciate it. What can I do to show my appreciation?” Mr. Daniel asked, looking really grateful.“Well, maybe when I need your help, I’m going to ask.”“Then we might need to exchange contacts.” Mr. Daniel spoke, with a smile.Both Mr. Daniel and Adrian, exchanged contacts, and he left, after that. After

“Wait here while I go over to call our boss.” He said to Adrian and walked upstairs.The mansion was quite nice, and Adrian wasn’t actually surprised that they would be living in such a place as good as this. At least, all the money they had earned should have been enough for this. Then he sat on a couch, and crossed his legs while admiring the interior design of the mansion.About a few minutes passed, he heard footsteps, coming down the stairs.“Adrian George.” He heard his name, but he decided not to look back. Then the boss walked towards the sofa, and had his seat. “And you are?” Adrian questioned as he released his crossed legs.“I believe for you to have gotten my location, then you know my name.”“Adams. Also known as Sharp Blade.” Adrian spoke, staring at the man, without showing any hint of fear.Adrian didn’t find any reason to fear him, because he knew that would only make their conversation, not turn out nice; the way he wanted it to be. “People don’t respect the fearf

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
