The Secret Successor CHAPTER 600
All the news channels were talking about two people, who were among the most popular faces in the country.The channels owned by Regan and Liam were speaking in their defense, but most channels were talking as if they were already proven guilty of their crimes.The stock prices of both the companies were affected but not by that much just yet.Still and all, Roddick and his family members were overjoyed by it. Roddick didn’t tell his parents that he also played a part in Liam getting arrested.“Once he gets sent to the prison, I’ll put a price on his body parts,” Roddick told his parents. “One by one, the prisoners will send me his body parts. I’m sure he wouldn’t even be able to get a wink in that prison. He’ll go down pathetically, regretting that he ever messed with me. In his last days, I’ll visit him and increase his burden because by then I’ll have married Kyra and have sons and daughters. I’ll tell him how Kyra is more unhappy than he is. Like father. Like daughter. This will b

At Luxor private park owned by the Lux family.The car Regan was in just arrived there, where no one else was present at the moment. Only the guard outside was present. The guard saluted the officers and opened the gate because he was informed ahead of this mission.After the car entered, he closed the gate which had the ‘closed’ sign board hanging on it.Regan was taken into a warehouse where there was an indoor badminton facility, behind which there was a storage room where all kinds of sports items were kept in big wooden boxes.In that storage room, Regan was taken downstairs through a secret door. The stairs leading down were very dark.“Where are you taking me?” Regan asked, his voice moderately calm. “This doesn’t look like a police station or court. I want my lawyer.”“Shut up, old man. You are not going to see the sunlight again,” one officer said, elbowing Regan's back, making him fall down. But another officer held him, or he would have rolled down the stairs.Regan cringed

As Regan and Nora conversed, Elsin entered the room.It wasn’t the real Elsin but his clone whom Lucy had booted. Clones of Elsin were already lying around on the island, so all she had to do it was wake one up.Elsin pulled a chair and sat between their beds and confidently smiled. “Nora Lynn… you are more useful to us as a clone than a real person, so I’m not even going to bargain with you.” He then looked at Regan. “You, on the other hand, are more useful as original than as a copy. So, I’ll give you one last chance, Regan.”“C’mon, kid. You’ve already extracted some samples from me. You have enough data to clone me,” Regan said. “And you still want to fool me and use me to get things done for you.”“It’s not a bad deal, so listen to me. The world right now thinks that the cryptocurrency is the key to escaping from the banking system,” Elsin said. “But what they don’t know is that all these cryptocurrencies originated from technology developed by the deep state decades ago. The fi

Russell still hadn’t forgotten the moment he shot and killed Elsin. He hadn’t fully overcome that bloody incident that happened not long ago. And now he had to deal with this clown of a clone once again?Elsin’s clone was updated with the information that Russell was the one that killed the original Elsin, so the clone immediately grew furious and leaped at Russell. His speed was as a cat. He was upon Russell in a second, grabbed his shirt and threw him over his shoulder. He was able to send Russell flying across the room and over the beds where Regan and Nora were lying.Russell hit the metal stands, and his body was aching all over.“Get up, Russell. Let us have a good fight,” Elsin said. “Let me see your blood and bones… and your tears. Let me hear you cry and beg as you pathetically die. If you want to escape from this terrible fate, then you’ve got only one choice. Become a soldier of the swamp and fight for the devil. Then you can become a superhuman and gain immortality like me
The Secret Successor CHAPTER 604
Thousands of officers wearing blue helmets approached the warehouse from all sides, wielding machine guns.[Their helmets are stopping my signals from penetrating their brains.] Hackney said. [It seems that Elsin had given them the information.]“But this is too fast,” Russell opined. “They must have prepared those helmets beforehand for some other purpose. Fighting them all is too risky and dangerous. It looks like we’ll have to escape another way.”Russell didn’t even come upstairs. He used Hackney’s ability to unlock secret doors and exit the basement through a different route and also shut the doors behind at the same time.“Dammit. I wanted to scare them, but now, I’m the one running away,” Russell was frustrated.[You’re outnumbered, and you have two burdens.] Hackney said. [So, running away is the right choice.]Regan and Nora were being slow. Nora was able to keep up with Russell somehow, but Regan was having a hard time. Nora mocked him, saying that she was able to walk faste
The Secret Successor CHAPTER 605
While Regan kept the news channels busy covering the naval and aerial war between countries, which started for unknown reasons, Russell approached the international court of justice, with enough proof to show Regan was unguilty and Russell also sought reparations and a formal apology from the police officers and also the national government.It wasn’t difficult to bring bail for Regan whom the government couldn’t even put in jail to begin with. After all, if they didn’t give bail, how would they explain to the public where Regan was kept? In which jail?With Regan still staying in the dark and not meeting anybody, Russell had the busiest day he ever had in recent times. He met many bigwigs, out of which the conversation he couldn’t forget was the one he had with the head of the FBI in Regan’s mansion.Ericson, the head of the FBI, was a very crude man. He didn’t even respect Russell and talked him down from the get go. “If you don’t withdraw your petition from ICJ, your life will be h

On the seven billion dollar superyacht.The boat was still yet to leave the port as many guests hadn’t arrived yet. Most of the people Roddick invited were so arrogant in their ways.Roddick was waiting for Kyra to come. He believed that she would come for sure.For now, Roddick was talking with a couple of atmospheric scientists.“Everything is prepared, right?” he asked them.“Of course, sir.”Roddick cheered the wine glasses with them. “This is just the start. I want to get complete control over the weather. Whoever rules the weather rules the world. All businesses run only when the weather supports it, so the world will be at my mercy when I succeed with this technology that can control the wind and the clouds. In a few years, only my company planes will be roaming the skies. And then, I’ll form an official trade business with Syslon. Imagine using their technology that’s far more advanced than our technology. They were using fridges a century ago, and those fridges were more mode

An hour earlier.Russell just came out of the washroom, having just taken a long, refreshing bath. He received a call from Nora. She had told him to bring David and Sansa along if possible. She wasn’t sure if they would agree to come to the yacht, but she told him to bring them no matter what.Russell was planning to go to the party alone, but after Nora requested him, he couldn’t just ignore her words.He still vividly remembered the time when he was hungry and roaming on the streets, he ate the food that she was freely giving food to the homeless and the poor.Russell then called Sansa and explained to her. “You guys let the police take Liam away. So, at least keep his family safe until he returns. I’m telling you the way to redeem yourselves, you know. If you don’t want to correct your mistake, then so be it. I’ll attend the party myself.”“Geez, you said all that to make me feel shitty,” Sansa complained. “I’ll definitely come with you, but I can’t guarantee the same with my uncl
