"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
It was a dark and cool evening.But not to Dylan apparently.After getting himself treated all thanks to Princess Mane's behest, she was driving him home since it was obvious he needed to rest.He was always deep in thought that at times whenever she tried to bring up a conversation, he wasn't listening. She kept glancing at him through the front mirror as she drove through the night.She had a lot on her mind, especially since for some reason, his problems have become theirs.She hasn't had the time to tell her father about what Stephanie told her about the death of Dylan's parents, although Jackson Lance will definitely confirm things for them.Wow. They really did it smart.They used someone unknown like Kevin Walter and then Marcus and the main boss Robert to place a bomb in the car and someone like Jackson Lance to tarnish the investigation.But no one would know the ones behind them.It will be hard work to discover exactly who the real culprit is and truly it was hard.They rea
Jackson was led toward the board room and in his mind, he thought that things between Lord Owens and him were gonna be professional.It was an opportunity to see himself invited to Red's Angels and get to see Lord Nigel Owens up close. He felt so lucky.He was gonna use the opportunity to render his services to Lord Owens because working with him will not only give him money but it will give him protection.He walked proudly with a smirk on his face. He was going to boast to the security showing him the way but he decided to keep shut.Seeing how big Red's Angel is, he knew that if he was gonna succeed in doing business with Lord Owens, he could be among his executives and this place could be his new home.Damn it, what good has he done to deserve this?They finally got to the board room and the door was opened for him. He proudly entered only to find his son on one of the chairs wrapped tight and his mouth taped.He blinked and looked at Lord Owens who sat comfortably on the superior
Jackson arrived home and in their living room with his son and ordered him to go freshen up. John scoffed at him and spoke out in anger. "I don't know why you go sucking up to a guy that broke my leg. Who is he and why is someone like that involved with Lord Owens?"Jackson looked at him and answered, "Maybe it has something to do with the fact that he was able to easily make a mess out of you. You see, your predicament is all your fault. I do not want it to become a barrier anymore. As long as I'll be working with Lord Owens then I do not care if I'll be sucking up to Dylan. Now go freshen up this instant! You look a mess!* John rolled his eyes away and leaped toward the stairs with his crutch.As his son left, Jackson wondered where to start from. He knew he was gonna be as fast as possible. He looked at his phone and saw all the missed calls Dwayne gave to him.Now he's gonna have to try coming up with an excuse on why the missed calls were excessive and why he let Dylan out of con
