Brian nodded, “Yes, she was kidnapped yesterday. I'm still shocked till this moment.” he said, his heart racing with fear as he remembered his mother's screams. What would she be facing all alone in the hands of that monster? The fact that there was nothing he could do angered him to the core. Lyra gasped, tears pricking the corner of her eyes, “Brian, I'm so sorry.” she whispered, her grip on his hands tightening. “I'm sorry I wasn't there to help.” She added, her heart filled with pain as she imagined what Brian had to go through alone. Lyra remembered when his mother was still sick, and how Brian had put his pride aside and beg Lady Elizabeth just to sponsor her treatment. Even after saving his mother's life, he wasn't supposed to face something like this again. Her heart ached for him, but there was nothing she could do. All she wanted was for Brian to be okay, but he was far from that. Brian was far from being okay. “How did it happen? Are you working towards it? Perhaps by tr

In a deserted area far away from the city, a forsaken warehouse stood. There were no trees, no birds, and no single sign of life.

He happened to have overheard Harry's words, and he knew Harry was referring to him. How was he so stupid to have believed him in the first place? Maya, and even Martin warned him, but he chose to believe that bastard instead. Robert took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it, placing it on his lips to calm himself.

I need to go now.” he said hurriedly. Albert gasped and pulled Brian backwards, “Master, even if someone sent the location, it could have been another trap. We can't trust this person completely.” he said as he wondered why Brian wasn't thinking appropriatel

Harry slammed his hands on the desk, his fury palpable. The only person responsible for ruining his plans was Rodger, as no other person knew the location of the Warehouse. “But why?!!!” he shrieked, anger coursing through his veins. He was this close to destroying Brian, and Rodger destroyed his plans completely. He picked up his car keys and stormed towards Rodger's building, his eyes glinting with malicious intent. “I'm going to deal with that son of a bitch!” he growled, his heart racing with fury. The fact that Rodger had the guts to leak the location to Brian was quite surprising, and he was going to show him why he was called Harry McDaniels. As soon as Harry reached Rodger’s building, he grinned. “With this amount of wealth he still wants more? Let him keep dreaming! Even if his group is dying, how's that my business? With my allowance cut, how does he expect me to pay for all his expenses?!” Even as Rodger was gradually losing his trusted alias, he was still quite stable.
The Underrated Duke's Heir Rise To Power Chapter 111
Brian repeated Lyra's words and wondered if Lady Elizabeth was still sane, or she wasn't in the right state of mind.

Brian remained silent for a while, and Lyra was suddenly confused. Impatient, Lady Elizabeth snatched the phone from Lyra's hands and said, “Brian, I know fifteen billion dollars isn't too much for you. In Fact, it's even too small. You're my favorite son in-law now, you know that right?” she said cheekly and Brian smirked. He was stunned that such a shameless person existed. He? The favorite son-in-law? Just because of his new identity? Well, he wasn't planning to become Lady Elizabeth's favorite son in-law. Instead, he was planning to become her nemesis. Just like the way she almost sucked the life out of him, he was also going to do the same. If not that Lyra still owned a few shares at the Brooks e

The warmth of the sun caressed Brian's skin with half his body inside a pool. His hair, damp with water clung to his neck like a second skin while the sound of laughter filled the air. Right next to the pool was a garden filled with so many flowers, It looked unreal. The air was peaceful, calm and serene.

Brian's driver, Alex, tightened his grip on the steering and said “Mr Duke, we're being followed.” “What?” Brian asked, slightly confused. After a hectic day at work, he wasn't really ready to encounter such a problem. He placed his hands on his forehead and sighed, “Are you sure about this, Alex?” Alex checked the rear mirror again and confirmed his suspicion, “I'm very sure sir. They're closing in on us.” he continued, stepping on the accelerator. Brian leaned back in his chair, “Alert the other bodyguards about the situation and drive in circles. Going home now is not an option.”Alex nodded, clicked on a button and alerted the bodyguards in front of them. Brian watched as Alex stepped on the accelerator, speeding on t

North Ashton Hills, Members of the dancing 9 were seated around the table, each of their faces filled with dread. Several years of planning, training, working, went down the drain because of Brian Duke. Yes, they had planned to threaten people but Brian was still blocking their path.

He shook his head, “Brian really thinks he can get away with this.” his voice rang out, dripping with venom, “Can you believe he ordered his people to dig out our past?”“What?!” One of the members spat, a look of terror plastered on his face, “He’s digging out our past? What if he gets evidence against us? What then are we going to do?” he added, his eyes fixed on Duncan. Another member turned to Tyla, “You're the reason for this, you b*tch! You've brought this upon us. It's because of your greed, that's why that bastard is after us.” she seethed. Tyla clenched her fists, “How dare you say that to me?! If not for my company, the group

Ever since the incident that happened during the campaign, Duncan had never had a moment of rest. Apart from how fast Lawrence was progressing, Brian also became stronger with each passing day. If threatening people would bring stronger people to his side, Duncan was determined to find their weakness and use it against them. Seated in a young senator's office, Duncan crossed his legs as his lips curled into a grin, “Mike Harrison, senator of Blackwoods state.” he began, leaning closer to take in his features. Mike had raven dark hair and pale green eyes. Striking features that would charm any lady. He looked like a soft man who wouldn't be able to withstand any pressure. It was exactly the kind of person Duncan was in need of. Weak and vulnerable people. Since Brian and the president were forcing his people to stop working with him, he might as well form alliances with new people. Mike was his new target.

As the election date moved closer, Lawrence, the president and Brian, worked hand in hand to ensure that the position didn't fall into the wrong hands. It was a sunny afternoon; the trees were green, the air clean and the sky was bright. It was the perfect time to have a campaign, and rather than holding it in Halls, Lawrence held it in a public space, where people moved around freely. There were free drinks, free food and there was no discrimination. People of different status were welcomed, each of them dressed in their best outfits. Lawrence stood on the podium with a microphone in his hands. Rather than having a robotic speech that would bore people, Lawrence conveyed his heartfelt message towards the people. He promised them a brighter future, a better world where everyone would be treated equally. Even though he was the incumbent president, there were still some mistakes he made and so, he assured the people he would keep to his word and amend his mistakes. While Lawrence co

The dancing 9 was indeed a group who was involved in illegal activities.Killian had no idea that he had been working with desperate people. People who would kill to get a certain position.
