The Rise of Arthur McCain Chapter 142
Speechless, Janet stood at a spot for a while and waited for the officers to drive out of the place before hurrying away. She got into her car and zoomed off afterwards.Meanwhile, Bryan could not leave the shores of Vienna because the police were on the lookout for him. He decided to leave the city and made his way to a province which was very far from the city.Since he could no longer access his bank account or that of his late mum's, he decided to make do with the little cash he had. While in disguise, he was able to evade some local policemen and finally got himself a place to stay. It was an abandoned building and a place where people rarely visit. Bryan decided to settle at the place but was stunned to learn that it was already occupied. Inside the place were people's belongings, some mattresses and kitchen equipment. It was proof that the place was inhabited by someone or some people. Bryan kept wondering the kind of people who would be staying in such a dirty and abandoned

Bryan swallowed hard and kept gaping at the men.“Did you hear what I just said?” The gang leader snapped at him and he nodded.“Y – Yes. Uh, but I don't know what you people do.”The man chuckled. “You'll find out soon enough.”“Can I refuse?”“You don't have the luxury of making a decision now. You're here already and you can't leave anymore unless you're a spy.” The gang leader said domineeringly. He was the authority at the place and whatever he said must be.“I'm not a spy. Everything I just said is the truth.” Bryan said in defense.“Then prove that you're saying the truth by joining our gang. Well, there's no way you can refuse unless you want to be dead.”Bryan didn't know what to do anymore. He had just been given two choices.It's either he joins their gang in whatever they were doing or he dies.However, what was the point of running away from the law and running into the hands of people who would end his life. He didn't want to die. At least not yet.He was left with no ot

Jesse didn't want them to make a fuss at such a place. It was inappropriate and that was why she left Janet behind and started towards the place of the funeral.Turning around, Arthur saw Jesse approaching him. Instantly, his face lit up with smiles and he waved at her. Jesse managed to smile back at him before going to meet with him.It was just the priest, Gregg and some of his staff who were in attendance. Arthur was standing beside his father when Jesse came and stood beside him.“Once again, accept my condolences.” Jesse muttered and Arthur nodded his head. She didn't know anyone else at the place except for Arthur. It was the reason she consoled him alone.Since the funeral mass was still in progress, Arthur didn't introduce Jesse to his father yet. That would be after everything was over.Jesse, on the other hand, did not ask. She didn't want to disrupt the mass and only had it in her mind to ask later.Although she suspected the man standing next to Arthur to be his father.Gr

“Jess, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting. I just have to tell her off.”Turning around, Arthur saw that his father was still waiting for him in the car.“Come on, Jess.”Arthur led her to her car leaving Janet staring at them without a word. She was angry and envious of Jesse and also glaring at her.“Thank you so much for coming. I really appreciate it. At first when you told you were coming, I didn't know that you meant it.” Arthur said happily.Jess smiled back. “I keep to my words and I'm not a liar like you.”Arthur swallowed hard. He didn't see that coming. Jesse was still angry at him. She was yet to forgive him just like she already said.“I'm sorry for lying to you. I didn't mean it, Jess. And I thought you've already forgiven me.”“I have forgiven you. However, to forgive is not to forget.”“Why won't you try and forget about it?.”“Well, it won't be easy to forget about the past. Although I've forgiven you.”From the corner of his eyes, Arthur saw Janet pass by and went to

Jesse and Arthur stopped conversing when they saw him. The Man walked up to them but didn't say anything. After glancing at them without a word, he walked away.“Ignore him.” Jesse uttered and Arthur nodded his head.“Alright, thank you so much once again. I'll be going back to work now.”Arthur began to walk away. He hadn't gone far when Jesse called him back.Swiftly, he ran back to meet up with the lady who was smiling warmly at him.Arthur kept wondering what must be going on in Jesse's mind. “You, um, called me back.”“Yeah, I did.” Jesse tilted her head and lifted it up again before turning to face Arthur.“I was wondering if you'll be free tonight. I'd like us to hang out together if you don't mind.”With his mouth open, Arthur gasped and gaped at Jesse. He could not believe his ears. Jesse just asked him out.He was completely dumbfounded and kept staring at the lady before him in disbelief.“What is your response then?” Jesse asked when she saw that Arthur was not saying any

Arthur sighed in relief and Nick gave him a questioning look before asking. “Why do you look so anxious?”“No, I was not anxious.” Arthur shook his head vigorously. “I thought she came to insult you. I hope she didn't really insult you.”Arthur already told Nick who Janet and Bryan were to him but not the whole truth. He was also expecting Nick to see Bryan's pictures that were all over the media. However, he didn't see the pictures. Maybe he saw the pictures but wasn't interested in looking closely at them.“No, I didn't even give her any chance. After the last time she insulted me, I kept my guards up when I saw her so she won't repeat that again.”“Ok, that's good. I would have confronted her, had she spoken rudely to you.”“No, she didn't. In fact, the look on her face wasn't a troublesome one. It looked like she came to make peace.”Arthur chuckled. “I don't want to have anything to do with her. It's a good thing you told her off.”Arthur was happy that Janet didn't have the chan

Arthur's face lit up in delight as soon as Jesse said those words to him. Out of excitement, he rose from his seat and ran to Jesse's seat to give her a peck. Unfortunately, he was interrupted by the waiter who appeared before them with their orders in his hands.Arthur was embarrassed and disappointed at the same time. He didn't have the chance to get the kiss he wanted. Why did the waiter have to come at such a time?It was a very wrong timing.Seeing how disappointed Arthur was, Jesse burst out laughing. The waiter, who also noticed what happened, only laughed in his heart. He managed to hold the laughter in and carefully placed the dishes on the table before turning around to leave.Arthur could swear that the young man was going to give the gist to his colleagues and they'd all make a laugh out of it. Well, that doesn't bother him. All he cared about was that Jesse had accepted him back.“Come on, Arthur. Go and sit down, let's have dinner together.”Without another word, Arthur

Janet was driving behind the couple and they were yet to find out. When they got to the place, Arthur asked her to pull over before his villa. Pointing at the house before them, Arthur said to her.“Won't you drive in? That's my house.”Jesse turned to him and shook her head. “No. Not tonight. If you want me to come to your house, then invite me properly.”“But I've already invited you.” Arthur retorted. However, Jesse still stood her ground.“No, Have a good night's rest. Now you can get down from my car.”“Ok, if you insist. I'll surely invite you properly.”Seeing that a strange car had been parked outside the gate for a while, the security guard soon approached them. He had to keep his guard up while striding towards the direction of the car.For all he knows, they could be spies or even kidnappers.Standing a little distant from the car, the man asked with his voice raised. “Who are you people and what are you doing there? You have to leave now or I'll call the police.”When the
