Betty was taken aback as Dylan bawled at her. Her heart became very unstable.Dylan let out a calming breath, deciding they were not worth his stress. They're kids anyway.Betty is just twenty-one, Claire is twenty and Tyler is nineteen."You guys should shift. Get the hell out of my way." He dismissed them.Betty scoffed but they let him pass.He wasn't able to go inside the Clifford manor since he was intercepted by two bodyguards."You were banned from this place! You're not allowed entry so get lost!"He recognized the voice.It was Jay. A trusted bodyguard of his father who was respectful to him back then and would refer to him as master. But now, this man seems to have become nothing more than a lapdog.However, this lapdog has the guts…the effrontery to tell him to get lost? What a fool!Dylan chuckled mockingly. "You, a mere lapdog, my father's watchdog is telling me to get lost? Do you know who I am?"Betty burst out laughing and went to him. "Of course, we know who you are,
At the question, Dwayne looked at Anthony and said, "It's just here because he has a lot to answer to me.""The fact that he's here is bad cause he's unwanted. His father is the bad luck of this family and he's a banished child! He shouldn't be here,..."Out of anger, Dylan banged the sturdy rosewood table in front of him and stood up. His eyes were as deadly cold, sending chills down everyone's spine even though they saw no reason to be scared of him."Who the hell are you to speak of my father that way in my own house?! You are all bastards and I will make you all pay for what you've caused!"A punch landed on his face. It was from Jackson."You still have the guts to talk, ah? Do you know who I am? Do you know what you've done to my son? Do you know what I can do to you? Banishment is a small thing compared to my capabilities." "You're a prosecutor, right? Then arrest him and make him stay in jail forever!" Caroline chimed in.Dylan sighed and looked at the man. "I do know about w
Dwayne was still in an angry phase at that moment 'cause whenever he thinks about Dylan's threat, he finds it incomprehensible and wonders what was giving him those balls.Dylan wasn't like that then and that was why it was easy to push him out of the house.Yes, he was always arrogant, stubborn, and rebellious but back then, he had no choice. He was a nobody and they had the upper hand against him. There was no reason to fight back so all that was left for him was to accept his fate.Why are things different now?He even has a gun?There has to be a change in his life. Something that gave him the guts to fight back. Someone is definitely backing him up.Could it be his godmother?He scratched the back of his head in frustration and looked at Jackson who was sitting in front of him in his father's study room.They decided to meet and talk alone. To plan their next step.Although, the pending problem was the fact that Carver seemed to have disappeared into thin air. They've tried calli
"What?!" Lord Owens blurted out.Azure King nodded, and sat down on the couch in front of his father's desk. "You heard me right, dad. Jackson Lance is acquainted with Dwayne Clifford, Dylan's uncle."Lord Owens lowered his gaze as he was lost in thought about the information. "If they're both acquainted, then could it be…""Dad, it seems we are gonna want to talk to Dylan about this. I don't think he's in the dark like we think he is. I think there are some things that he knows and if we can help each other, we can help him avenge his father's death." Azure King suggested.Lord Owens sighed and leaned against his swivel chair. It's been so difficult connecting the dots. And thinking about bringing Robert Davis into their custody would never work.Just like Marco Lopez, Robert Davis does not know who the real client is and that's because Jackson Lance has always been the little courier. Jackson Lance is who they're after and who is meant to lead them to the main culprit.And if he's a
Madame Sharon was trembling in anger as she heard all what Hermione said. Her teeth gritted and she uttered with spite in her voice, "That bastard! That bastard, get me my phone!! How dare he? He's trying to ruin this family, I know that! But I won't allow that worthless piece of human garbage to have his way!! This family is untouchable! Get me my phone!!"Hermione gave her the phone, then she screened out Dylan's number and called him. The phone trilled three times before Dylan's voice sounded at the other end of the phone. "Hey, mom."Madame Sharon was aggravated by that. "Mom?! Who is your mom?! I can never give birth to a worthless, useless, arrogant jackass like you, you son of a bitch!! That's probably why your mom had to die because she was fed up with a bonehead like you!! In fact, you are her greatest mistake in life!! You should have been aborted, you good for nothing fool!!"Dylan furrowed his brows as he wondered where the insults were coming from. But that woman sure has
Dylan stared at the middle-aged police officer he was sitting opposite from. He was just busy taking things down in a note.He couldn't believe his uncle would stoop so low to arrest him for such an ordinary threat. Wow."So you don't have any family and no guardian?" The police officer asked.Dylan gave him a blank look and asked, "Do I look like a kid?"The officer put both his arms on his desk and looked at Dylan with a slight revulsion evident on his face. "For someone who has nothing, of course, you can result in joining bad gangs or why did you have a gun?""For protection.""Protection against your gang rivals." The man concluded with a snide expression. The boy has no idea that he's doomed.Dylan furrowed his brows in confusion. "No. No, I didn't…""I think getting involved with a bad crowd gives you the guts to go after your family. Why? Because you've got people to back you up, right?"Dylan scoffed in disbelief. "Look, you don't know what you're talking about. It's all base
"DYLAN WAS TAKEN BY THE COPS?!!" Lord Owens asked in shock and on his feet.Azure King and Princess Mane nodded."I was working on getting John Lance which I've succeeded in and Jessica was tasked by Dylan to watch over his godmother. We thought things would be fine for just a while then the guards informed us that Dylan was taken by cops. But the thing is, for the past one day, he has not been able to reach us neither do we understand why he was arrested. Since he hasn't called, we decided to bring the matter to you." Azure King explained.Lord Owens let out a harsh breath and sat down worriedly. "What precinct took him?""Six." Azure King answered."So we're gonna have to get him out of there." Lord Owens prompted."But how are we gonna do that when he doesn't want people to know that he's deeply acquainted with you?" Princess Mane asked in curiosity.Azure King added by saying, "We have Jackson Lance's son in our custody now. I know that Dylan's arrest has to do with him so all we
Dylan coughed out blood where he stayed on all fours with his hands on his stomach. He closed his eyes shut, and let out a deep groan before sitting down on the ground, his one leg up and his back resting against his bunk bed.He looked at the two big men who were sneering at him. They didn't look like they were done with him.And it confirmed his thought when one of them said, "Such a score we acquired! We can beat someone up and get paid for it! Drag him up!"The other one guffawed and dragged Dylan's shirt in his chest, lifting him up and onto his feet. "This is where you're gonna die, unfortunately." Then he punched Dylan's face so hard that Dylan stumbled to the side, lost his stance, and fell on the floor again.A weak groan escaped him, he's been trying to act strong and daring but that facade was slowly fading away.His hands clenched into fists at the thought of his uncle doing this to him. Anything that's gonna make him get out of there, he won't take it lightly on him. He w
