Russell stopped the car in front of a big house. He was in a familiar neighborhood, but he didn’t get out of the car.He looked back at the girl who was still unconscious. She was dressed in a way, her bra and panties were visible when she was lying down on the seat.Russell took her hand purse and grabbed her cell phone. He used her fingerprint to unlock her mobile and then called her mom.“Mrs. Julien, this is Russell.”“Russell?” The female on the other side of the call didn’t seem to recognize his voice. “Who are you? W-Why are you speaking through my daughter’s mobile?”“I’m Russell Bennett. Can you come outside your house for a second?” Russell asked. “It’s urgent, but don’t bring your husband with you.”“W-What are you…”“Just come out. You will know,” he said and ended the call.A couple of minutes later, Julien hesitantly walked out of the building, coughing because of the cold temperature outside.Russell stepped out of the car and said, “Your daughter is in the back. I foun
“So, Mr. Jamie Lynx… You’ve come to file a case on Russell Lynn for kidnapping a girl and also for beating you in front of the bar,” the police captain asked the rich guy while glancing at Ivan at times.“Yes. Put him behind bars and give him third degree torture or something,” Jamie growled. “He must never be able to walk properly. I’ll give you however much money you want.”“Ahem, you still live with your dad, don’t you? So, why don’t I talk with your dad first?” the officer asked not so politely.“That’s…” Jamie glanced at Ivan who nodded calmly. “Alright. You can call him. At this hour, he’ll be sleeping, but this situation is urgent, so…” he gave his dad’s number.The officer called Jamie’s dad. “Mr. Chad, I’m Captain Bernard. Sorry for disturbing you at this hour, but your son is at our station. If you can come here, I’d appreciate it.” Saying that he ended the call.“Is he coming?” Jamie anxiously asked.Bernard nodded. “Meanwhile, do you want coke or something to eat?”“I’d li
Five long minutes, Chad had to wait. He finished two cigars in that time. He didn’t light a third one, though. He threw the packet aside and started banging the door with the baseball bat. “Come out, motherfucker!” BAM~! The door suddenly opened so fast, it hit part of Chad’s face, making him collapse backward and cringe in pain. “Oh, my bad,” Russell was quick to apologize. “I didn’t mean to hurt you.” “Ugh,” Chad wasn’t bleeding, but his nose hurt so much. “What are you bastards gawking at? Attack him!” The four thugs he brought immediately tried to attack Russell. He quickly shut the door again, and then opened it even faster. In doing so, he hit the faces of two thugs. They were able to withstand the pain and glared at Russell. “You’re a dead man!” “The door isn’t heavy enough to deal enough damage, huh,” Russell leaped forth and dealt a tornado-kick to one of the two men that were closest to him. A solid hit sent him crashing back into the two men in the back. The other gu
From his car, Ivan was also watching everything that had happened between Russell and Chad, but he didn’t see Gage.“When did this punk get this strong?” Ivan was not able to believe his eyes. “If I fight him now, will I be able to win?”Even though he wanted to try fighting against Russell, he had to control his urge because Roddick had told him to not let Russell know who was causing him harm.Ivan then sent a fake message to Roddick, saying that he made Russell cry a couple of times. Afterward, he gave the task of monitoring Russell to his subordinate, Limsi, and left.Limsi was a young short-haired blonde who had the habit of chewing bubble gum all the time, even when her jaws started hurting.“He told me to scare Russell, but the only way I know is to beat the shit out of others,” Limsi thought. “I guess I’ll start my job when he begins to sleep.”Limsi followed Russell and waited until he picked a spot on the bench, out in the open. “Is he going to sleep there? On the bench? I k
The next morning.Russell woke up early, because it was pretty cold outside. He stretched his body a bit and began to jog to heat his body up. In about twenty minutes, he worked out enough to combat the cold. He was not shivering anymore.He bought carrots from a market and was washing them near a tap. A shirtless old man was shivering on the side. He seemed homeless, but Russell only had one shirt with him, so he offered a carrot and a ten dollar note to the old man before resuming his aimless walk.He went past the burger shops and other fast food centers that were yet to open up. But the street dogs were eating the spoils from the garbage cans in the back. They growled at him as he was going past them.“I don’t have enough money to rent a house, let alone stay in a hotel,” he thought, completely ignoring the dogs. “Charlotte said she’d send me the documents, but since she didn’t, I guess she got all the necessary documents from Liam already?” He pursed his lips. “The prenuptial agr
Tyler brought Russell directly to his house and told him to rest in the single room built on the rooftop. There were all facilities inside, since it was a big room, so Russell didn’t even need to go outside, except for eating.“We’ll talk about everything later, but get some rest first,” Tyler told Russell and left.Moments later, Julien entered the room.“He told me that your family has abandoned you,” Julien hesitantly said. “Is that correct?”Russell didn’t say anything.“I haven’t told Tyler what happened last night,” she added. “You shouldn’t tell him, either, or he’ll punish me and my daughter.”“I already told you that I won’t tell him,” Russell replied.“Then, I’ll be going,” Julien turned around. “I’ll be bringing food here three times a day, so you can stay here as long as you want. Don’t be burdened because this is the least I can do for someone who saved my daughter.” Saying that she left.Russell began to think. “So Tyler didn’t bring me because Julien told me what happen
The old man, Tom, woke up in the middle of the night because his wife, Rachel, was screaming that thieves were stealing things. However, there were no thieves. Even though Tom repeatedly told her that, she would still cower and even pee in her bed from fear.Rachel had many health issues. Alzheimer’s was one of those. She didn’t remember who Tom was. She didn’t even remember her own name. All she would do for most of the day was look at the garden through the window. And every time she would wake up from her sleep, she would act like a different person.Tom tried everything he could. From modern medicine to eastern medicine, he had tried everything with the money he had, but nothing worked. In fact, things were on decline because she was also aging really fast.There were many that told Tom to euthanize her because he was also growing too old to take care of her. However, he couldn’t agree to such a thing.Now, after calming Rachel down, Tom lost all of his sleepiness, so he came outs
After Russell left Tom’s house, a few minutes later, both Ivan and Gage came wondering what sort of connection this old man had with Russell for Russell to have waited by his home for an entire night.However, both Ivan and Gage reached the main gate at the same time. And they recognized each other.“You are…” Ivan was more surprised than Gage. (What the hell is this guy doing here? I haven’t seen him in over a year, so I thought he’s working abroad.)Gage, however, quickly figured out what Ivan was up to. “I don’t know what you’re doing here, but you asked for this.”“Asked for what?” Ivan was saying, but Gabe attacked him without warning. Both of them exchanged powerful attacks for more than three minutes and ended up injuring each other. In the end, both of them stopped fighting and walked away in different directions.“I must get my elbow checked,” Gabe thought. “I should also tell Boss about this. It seems like Roddick or his mother is still trying to harm Russell.”“Why did Rega
