There was this blank expression on Ethan’s face as police cars, fire trucks and ambulance vehicles as they drove past him, the expression on his face showed that he wasn’t in the least concerned by what he had just done, there wasn’t even a shred of pity on his face. It was a backup plan he had in case if things didn’t go his way today and just like he had suspected, it didn’t go as he had planned. Evans was bound to say no to the deal that Ethan was stretching to him, after there was a better deal ahead for him if he tells Hudson of what Ethan had just proposed to him. There are words ongoing underground that Hudson really values useful information and would always reward for it. Ethan couldn’t risk something like that, that was sure to jeopardize his plan, so he had counter measures prepared ahead of time, stopping at his house briefly to pick up a little bomb, one of the things he had bought from the black market in preparation to his next plan. He had planted the bomb beneath
“Well, what if we both come back in a few days’ time with a better deal, I will work on bringing my own deal down and you—“ Hudson seemed not to be having any of that, “Fine, you have yourself a deal, then” Hudson cut her sentence, putting his signature on the line that was specifically left for that. He was seated with Bethel by his side across a lady who had her secretary standing behind her in a medium sized office with nothing and chair, the structure looked like it was strictly meant for office, there were stacks of document on the table. “Are you kidding me?” Bethel whispered beside him, only loud enough for him to hear, but Hudson just decided to ignore. He rose to his feet and stretched his hand forward to the lady seating opposite him. She seemed to be in her late twenties, the same expression was on her face as that of Bethel; disappointment, shock. She didn’t expect him to agree to the deal just like that, she was hoping the deal would stretch on for a few more days, ho
Hudson sat in a restaurant close to the window, he had been constantly checking his wristwatch over and over with brief intervals between them. He had a blank expression on his face. The door to the restaurant suddenly pushed open and he raised his head up, disappointment flashed through his eyes and he turned his head to the glass. “Hey” a voice called beside him. He turned his head to the person, a frown slowly making its way to his face. “How may I help you?” he asked. The person standing in front of him was a tall, bulky man with beards and untidy hair, his height clearly measuring a few inches above six feet. He had a very scary look also. “Adonis Zephyrus wants to see you outside” he said, gesturing with his head by tilting it in the direction that leads outside. “he said he will prefer to have this meeting outside” Hudson let out a soft chuckle and rose to his feet, following him closely, stopping at where a black SUV car was parked on a very dark side. He could sense da
“Are you fucking kidding me?” Hudson yells into the phone that was placed on his office table, it was placed on speaker and he was alone in his office. He turned his back to the office table, staring at the floor-to-ceiling window, his hand folded on his chest with a pissed off expression on his face. “So what you are trying to tell me is that the person that did this bullshit in my name made sure to clean his tracks properly?” he asked, still finding it hard to believe that the real culprit can’t be tracked down. “Yes sir. The culprit behind it only left something that pointed to you as the culprit” the caller on the other end of the line said. Hudson sighed and bent his head low, staring at the ground, his eyes searching. A knock on his door distracted him, pulling him out of his thoughts. “Keep on searching, there must be a flaw in the work that they did” he said and ended the call immediately. “Come in,” he said, turning back to face the door. The door was pushed open and hi
Alexis sat on the edge of the pool with only her feet dipped into the pool, she was clad in a black bikini. She had a bottle of champagne by her side and a flute which showed signs that it was once filled but had now been drunk to half. Since Alexis had been staring at home, Hudson had made sure to hire a staff of workers to help with the house chores. She raised it up and took a sip, hearing footsteps approaching her, she turned back and saw Hudson walking towards her, he was clad only a black boxer briefs. He flashed a smile before entering into the water, he positioned himself between her legs. Beneath that smile on his face, she could tell that he was tired but he tried as hard as he could to hide it away from her. She buried her hand into his hair, “What’s wrong?” she asked with a puzzled expression on her face. “What do you mean?” Hudson muttered, placing his ear on her stomach to listen for movement, a genuine smile appeared on his face, he let out a sigh and raised his hea
Bethel let out a dark chuckle, “You and I both know that what you just said is an obvious lie” he replied with a shake of his head, hoping to hear from Andy’s lips that he was joking but the look in his eyes were saying otherwise. “What do you take me for?” Andy asked, spreading his arms wide open, “Huh?” he questioned again, rising to his feet. “Get your ass back on the couch, Andy, don’t test my goddamned patience because they are really running thin now and it can snap any moment from now” Bethel threatened through clenched teeth, rising to his feet, his eyes wide-opened, the look in them showing how furious he is. He had his gun pointed to Andy, his finger on the trigger, it was taking all he had not to pull the trigger that moment. “Are you guys really thinking that I am your errand boy, doing your dangerous work?” Andy asked with a questioning expression on his face. “You had us fooled all this while, don’t test my patience and stick your fucking ass back to the chair” Bethe
Hudson slipped out of the bed, picking his phone off the nightstand, he took one more look at Alexis, she was sound asleep, snoring softly. He turned away, walking down the stairs to the kitchen before picking up the incoming call from Bethel. “He has no idea of what he is planning” he said immediately the call was picked while munching on something. Hudson placed the phone on speaker and dropped it on the island before walking to the fridge, his eyebrows scrunched up in confusion. “Huh, what do you mean?” he asked. “Oh,” Bethel cleared his throat, “Your hunch was right, Ethan is really the person behind the mask, Andy himself doesn’t know what he is planning. He is just doing as he is being told” he added. The munching sound followed next. Hudson groaned at the sound, showing his irritation at it. He pulled off a pack of ice and walked towards where his cups are neatly arranged, pulling out a whiskey glass, he broke some ice into it and returned it to the fridge. He grabbed his
Andy parked his black Cadillac car beside a red Ferrari in front of an uncompleted building. He stepped out of the car and walked into the building with an anxious face. The look in his eyes showed that he didn't sleep the previous night. He couldn't sleep, despite how much he forced himself to, he had been wondering what the phone call he got from Ethan is, he had told him to meet up with him here this morning urgently. Immediately he stepped into the building, fear engulfed him as different thoughts filled his head. The building was empty, his footsteps echoed in the building, it was also dark and it looked creepy."You are early," Ethan whispered in his ear from behind. Andy jumped in fright, he groaned in pain as his injured feet hit the ground. "Fuck it man" "What's up with you, why do you look frightened?" Ethan asked, folding his hand on his chest and looking at him keenly. Andy quickly composed himself, putting on his brightest smile, with a wave of his hand he replied, "
FOUR MONTHS LATER Alexis sat nervously in the bedroom, dressed in her wedding gown but somehow she found herself sweating for absolutely no reason. The door opened slowly and Hudson walked in. "Hi babe... " "Hudson! You know it's not nice to see your bride in her wedding dress before she walked down aisle. ""I know... ""I just wanted to check up on you ""Now you have seen me, so just leave already before someone sees you here! By the way, how did you manage to get in here?" Alexis asked teasingly, with smiles in her face."Let's just say.. I sneaked in just to see how beautiful my bride looks. Truth be told Babe, you look absolutely stunning and I might just stay rooted at this spot and keep staring at you all day"Alexis blushed really hard as she tried to look down but Hudson held her jaw up."Don't! Let me keep looking" He said.She looked at him, straight into his eyes and all she could see was herself in it. She could see love in his eyes and that could only melt her heart
Chapter 134 Bethel stood in front of Kenny who was on his knees with his head busted, blood was dripping down his face. "What were you saying again?" he asked again. "What the fuck are you talking about, who the hell is Ethan?" he asked with a confused expression."Hudson is at the hospital with his wife that is the reason why he can't come here but he sent me specifically to greet you for him for the job well done that you carried out for Ethan or are you still going to keep up that stupid lies of yours that you just wanted to play a game with him?" he asked with a blank expression on his face, holding the bat with his hand but he placed it on his shoulder."I don't know what you are talking about but seeing that you came alone, I thought that you decided to be a real man and settle this with your fist and not beat up someone without a weapon," he said through gritted teeth with an angry expression on his face. "Well, if you think that I am scared of having a fair fight with you,
Chapter 133Hudson drove as fast as he could, jumping out of the car without slamming it close and before he even packed his car properly. Immediately he reached the entrance of the hospital, the people guarding the entrance bowed their heads to him slightly and let him walk past them into the hospital. He stopped at the counter, a ring heavy, "I am sorry, I am looking for someone named… Alexis Stewart, in this hospital" he said. "I am sorry, there is no one bearing that name in this hospital currently," she said with a calm voice which only irritated him, he groaned and ran his hand through his hair, looking frustrated and furious. "Fuck!" he muttered and turned away, he looked back at her, "Do you know me?" he asked, while pointing to his face, hoping she nods her head. She nodded her head slowly just like Hudson had expected, "Yes" she muttered, a smile making its way to her face, "Hudson Stewart, the number one richest and most powerful man, right?" "Yeah, yeah" he replied to
One down. Ethan was the first to lose a man, despite being the first to start the shooting. He was the only one taking proper cover, while the rest of them had confidence in their numbers being greater than the number of people on the other side. Seeing their behavior only made Hudson chuckle, he already knew they were going to have that thought and it was going to be to his advantage.He stayed in his car, with his hand on the trigger button, he had no intention of wasting bullets today. He turned to look at the person beside him and it only made him chuckle, he was lying down on the floor, pointing his gun through the hole under the car, he turned to look at Hudson and nodded his head. Hudson could already guess what he was trying to do but he needed to confirm, "Is it what I am thinking?" he questioned him and the lad nodded his head with a bright smile on his face. "I shoot the feet of someone since I have a very good aim, I am sure I won't miss and then once the bullet hit
Alexis was rushed to the emergency unit immediately after the attention of the doctor was called."Um… sir, can I have a few moments with you?" one of the doctors that was on duty said to Ethan, grabbing his attention. He turned to look at the doctor with a puzzled expression on his face, "A moment for what? How can I help you?" he asked with a harsh tone. "Do you do anything to make her unconscious, like do you by any chance hit her or something?" he asked, while making gestures with his hand and looking at him keenly. "What is giving you the thoughts that I would do such a thing to a woman that just gave birth? By the way, isn't that punishable by law?" he asked again, folding his arm on his chest. "Yeah sure it is, I am sorry for asking you such a ridiculous question, I don't know what came over me," the doctor said, running his hand through his hair and combing it backward, he shook his head and walked away. Ethan shook his head and stood up from where he sat, walking towards
“I want this call to be traced,” Hudson yelled, entering the place that was meant for the search for Alexis, all the equipment and technologies they needed were there, “Get working now! I want the exact location of the place” he barked at them. The people in charge of the tech and tracking quickly went to work and started the tracking of the call, it didn’t take long for them to locate where the call was coming from and immediately after they did, they sent the location to Hudson. He ended the call and looked up the place, it was a place that he knew too well, he ran outside as fast as his legs could carry him, immediately he got outside, he saw three more cars parked beside his car, Bethel popped his head out of the window of one, “Lead the way, let’s get moving” he yelled to Hudson. “How many people are available at the moment, I need at least five more extra, hope it is up to you,” Hudson said, pulling open the driver’s seat of his car, he stepped in and ignited the engine of hi
Ethan walked into the ward after Alexis was cleaned up, he turned to the nurses that were present in the ward with a puzzled expression, his eyes moving around the whole room, searching for something, where the newborn baby was but he couldn’t find him and it was getting on his nerves. “Where is the baby?” he asked suddenly with a calm voice but he didn’t get any response, he turned to one of the nurses who looked like she had a loose mouth and would spill anything if asked properly. “Sorry please, do you know where my baby is?” he asked, calmly with a worried tone. She stopped what she was doing and turned to face Ethan, flashing him a smile, she said, “I am so sorry but it seemed like the mother wasn’t in a good condition, she seemed stressed but emotionally and physically and this affected the baby, he is currently undergoing treatment, you just need to exercise a little patience and I am sure that you will see your baby in no time” she explained calmly with a sweet and assuring
Ethan walked up to the shade with a glass of red wine in one of his hands and a gossip magazine in his other free hand. Just like usual, he met Alexis seated there, doing nothing as usual, just staring at the garden and enjoying the cool breeze. It is only at periods like this that she looks alive but that doesn't seem to be the case here, she seemed different today, uncomfortable.Ethan raised the glass of wine to his lips, from the side of his eyes, he noticed her move uneasily on the chair that she was seated on. "Are you sure you are okay?" Ethan asked again with a worried tone for the umpteenth time. "Yes, yes, and yes and yes and yes and yes, how many times do you want to ask me that question and how many times do you want me to reply to you?" Alexis said with a hiss, rising to her feet. She walked past Ethan, with her hand on her stomach and a little difficulty, after taking a couple of steps past him, she let out a loud yell. Looking down, she saw the blood on the floor.
“I warned you, didn’t I?” Mr. Alexandros asked Hudson, immediately he stepped into his sitting room. Hudson jumped off his feet, “Oh, Dad, it’s quite a surprise to see you here without notice” Hudson said, forcing his lips to stretch into a smile. “Don’t deviate from the topic that we are discussing here” Mr. Alexxandros said while shaking his head, he had a very angry expression on his face. “Which topic is that, father?” Hudson asked, feigning a confused expression on his face and acting like he had no idea of what his father was talking about. “Oh, you know what I am talking about, Hudson, why would you attack Brandon?” his father asked.“Oh, that?” Hudson asked with a wave of his hand, a slight chuckle escaping his lips “Though I am very glad about how the idiot died when I heard the news, I mean he deserved that, the only thing that is making me not happy like I should is the fact that I am not the one that put a bullet through his skull” he said through gritted teeth. “You
