Michael's eyes widened in concern. "Bankruptcy? How did that happen?" he questioned hurriedly, then opened the news and read through it."The Classique Handbags Company is on the verge of bankruptcy as a website with an unknown handler is set to launch as the company's new online store. Unfortunately, more than ten thousand pre-orders have been made on the website, as it features the latest handbag collection that hasn't yet been unveiled to the public by the handbag company."Michael's face tightened as he understood the message deeply. The pre-orders were as much as that due to how the public was eager to buy the latest handbag from their favorite company.If the handler behind the website isn't stopped urgently, more people will fall into this scam.Aside from the loss on the public side, the company's reputation is at stake, too. The company could be questioned for not being conscious of the safety of its customers.To cap it all, the resources Classique Handbags Company has spent

They all returned to their seats, looking so uneasy and puzzled. They never knew or heard about this dude from anywhere. Why Cynthia placed respect for a mere bodyguard ahead of herself left them all with questions. With the seriousness on her face, none of them had the guts to trespass her warning. As for that, they all had their eyes fixed on the ground. They couldn't look the cold CEO in the eyes. Just then, Cynthia raised her head and glanced at them all. She cleared her throat and began. "I believe you all know the reason behind this urgent meeting."The executives turned to look at each other, providing their answers."Yes, Ma'am. The news about the ongoing serious issue that hit our company has spread across the city. This problem needs to be solved as soon as possible." "The reputation of our brand is presently at stake. We need to put quick actions into effect to get things corrected." Cynthia nodded slowly, "It's good that you all are aware."Then, she asked, seriously.

"They are sitting with us here?!""Who are they? They must have some nerve!"The executives were all making comments as they turned to look at each other with suspicion."Could the culprits have the guts to be in this room? I doubt it! They dare not!" The IT manager was angry and bewildered.Then, Cynthia answered, "Of course, yes. I'm only being considerate of them due to their past contributions to the company. Sincerely, I might overlook their crime and settle things amicably if they confess before everyone in this room."The executives were all stunned. They couldn't believe this statement came from their no-nonsense CEO. She was the type who didn't take things lightly, especially if it had to do with the company's reputation. When did she become so cool-hearted?"Miss Wellington, these black sheep never wish good for the company. I don't think they deserve mercy. They need to be severely punished!" Kelvin stated sternly, and the other executives agreed with him.However, Cynthia

All attention fell on the young man as he shouted. The whole room had their curiosity piqued. They wondered if the young man truly knew the criminals or if he was just desperate for money.Nobody was against him; they were all eager to know the criminals instead.Cynthia gave Michael a slight glance of surprise, then she turned to the young man in the distance."So, who are they? Mention them," Cynthia asked calmly."Ehm..." The young man stammered and swallowed hard as he cast a quick glance around the room. Instantly, his heart began to race as he felt frightened while exchanging glances with the culprits."Hurry up and point them out! Time is not on our side!" Kelvin barked at him. He couldn't wait to find out who they were and tear them apart.The fright on the young man's face intensified as he turned to Cynthia and pleaded, "Miss Wellington, I have a request. I would like you to assure me of maximum protection after exposing this secret, as these people in question have some pow

Everyone was stupefied and had their attention on the large LED screen. They couldn't wait to see the evidence.Just then, the fake website was boldly displayed on the screen, and all eyes were fixated on it. Kelvin and his colleague weren't worried, proving their innocence.Then, Cynthia turned to look at them and said, "I will give you this last chance. Are you ready to tell the truth or face the consequences after I expose the secrets?"The two executives in question became a bit restless as they found the accusation quite pressing. "Go ahead with the unveiling, Miss Wellington," the IT manager said unworriedly.Without wasting time, using the remote control, Cynthia instantly logged into the website as an administrator."What?!""This is unbelievable!"Everyone in the room had their minds blown away as they couldn't express their shock.They couldn't believe Cynthia had just logged in as an administrator to the website that kept the IT management profusely sweating.Cynthia said a

The board of executives was still in a state of puzzlement when Silas continued to address Michael more respectfully."Mr. Quinn, I just found out where you can get the treasure you need."Michael's eyes lit up as he complimented him. "That's good news."Then he added, "Silas, I have an urgent assignment for you.""Mention it, Mr. Quinn. I'm at your service anytime, any day," Silas responded instantly.The board of executives had their jaws on the floor as they heard this. It was difficult for them to digest.They were still in shock when Michael replied, "Okay, then. I will send the details to you."Then the call ended.The executives were left in disbelief, as the Silas Spencer they used to know was never submissive to anyone aside from his boss, the underworld lord of Silvana City.When did he become so accessible that anyone could send him on errands? If anyone could have such a chance, it shouldn't be an unknown bodyguard like Michael.Everyone in the room had different thoughts

Colston City was a well-modernized and large city, and Don Leonardo dominated every part of it. In the long run, his influence expanded to other cities, giving him a foothold across the entire county.Don Leonardo wasn't just heartless and brutal; he was also inhumane and barbaric.To crown it all, Don Leo was so powerful that nothing in this life was beyond his reach. Those who dared to stand against his authority in the past found themselves staring from their graves in an instant.Cynthia was lost in thought as she found the matter so difficult to comprehend. In the beginning, she believed the fake website was just a plan by rival fashion companies. Now that she discovered that Don Leonardo was one of the powerful figures supporting the crime, she became restless.The board of executives couldn't lift their jaws off the floor as they realized that the situation was beyond their understanding.Any battle with Don Leo is nearly unconquerable. Given that, they couldn't contemplate wha

The board of executives were all lost in disbelief as they witnessed the notorious gangster of Silvana City in action on the screen.Silas Spencer's face looked terrifying as he pointed a gun at the culprit, who was on his knees. Silas Spencer's men were also seen in the room, standing alert with deadly weapons.The culprit's phone was obtained and turned off right away.At this moment, the executives felt foolish for doubting Michael from the beginning. Seeing how respectfully the notorious gangster addressed him over the call made their minds buzz.They were afraid they had offended Michael by scolding him earlier.With how polite Cynthia had been treating him and the respect shown by Silas Spencer, it was hard for them to fathom who Michael was.Numerous thoughts were running through their minds.Having another round of thoughts concerning the issue at hand, they wondered how Silas Spencer had managed to burst into the culprit's apartment despite Don Leonardo's men guarding him.Th

Having a very strong man like Steelheart would be very helpful for the challenging journey Michael was about to embark on. Therefore, he welcomed Steelheart wholeheartedly."Thank you for your help, strong one. We can be on our way now."Steelheart bowed slightly to him in respect and requested to drive the car.Michael agreed, and Steelheart jumped into the driver's seat while Michael sat next to him.Sage, in the passenger seat, heaved a sigh of relief as Steelheart's presence eased his mind.King James wished them a safe and successful journey under his breath as he watched the SUV zoom off.Inside the car, their faces looked determined and focused as their thoughts revolved around the challenge before them.Just then, Michael broke the silence, "After conducting a lot of research, I was able to find Zak's location."The others nodded slowly as Michael took out his phone and showed them the route to the wizard's residence on Google Maps.Zak's residence is located in a deep and sca

After a conclusion had been reached, Michael intended to return home to prepare himself for the challenge ahead. Even though the information about the wizard was very scary, Michael never doubted his abilities.After all, with the genuine black opal in his possession, his spiritual strength would grow to a greater level.Michael set aside all thoughts and was about to exit the palace when Patricia, Liam's elder sister, met his gaze. The beautiful princess gave him a fleeting glance before turning and heading in her own direction.Despite it being just a glance, the air in the atmosphere felt charged at that moment. The meaning of the glance was incomprehensible to both, leaving the duo in a state of uncertainty........It was already the next day. Michael had taken his time and did what was needed overnight. At this moment, his spiritual strength had grown to the extent that he could unleash a powerful blast of energy from his bare hands.As soon as he arrived at the palace, a quick

The king felt extremely disgusted with Sage immediately. Undoubtedly, such a greedy fellow wouldn't mind ending the king's life if he got paid for it.Before the unexpected could occur, James had already resolved to end Sage's life first.Michael was still dumbfounded as he found it hard to understand how an elderly man could be so greedy. If not for his greed, there's a chance that the protection mirror wouldn't have gone missing.As soon as Sage saw the disgust and anger on their faces, he quickly protested,"Your Highness, please don't get me wrong! That was my intention when I got the fabricated black opal, but not anymore! That was why I returned the genuine black opal to the treasury after I realized that money isn't the pinnacle of everything in life."King James' face remained stern as he stared at the unreliable elderly man. Even though there was a hint of genuineness on his face as he protested, it was still very hard to believe him.James then turned to Michael and said, "M
Chapter 118
A total fright took over the room as the revelation restricted the air in the atmosphere.Given that the king had once witnessed Zak in action in Colston City, that made him realize who Sage described in the narration.Zak was a popular wizard in Colston City; however, only a few people had been privileged to see him in person.Aside from that, this ruthless wizard was known for devouring human beings on a whim without opening his mouth. Zak could manipulate time and mess with whatever he targeted.The king tried to understand that he must have spared Sage that night so as not to leave a trace of his visitation.The only question that revolved around King James' mind now was why Zak came for Silvana City's protection mirror.He could remember he had never had any business with the wizard in the past, let alone had a clash with him. Why Silvana City's peace was a problem for him left him with questions.King James sighed heavily as he let go of Sage's shoulders. He turned to Michael, w

An impatient facial expression appeared on the king's face. All he wanted to know was the current location of the protection mirror. The longer the sacred mirror remains missing in Silvana City, the closer unimaginable disasters are likely to strike the city.At that moment, Sage's face looked so bitter, and his lips were trembling. The more he was about to speak, the more tears ran down his cheeks."On the night of Prince Liam's last birthday..." Sage bit his lower lip, trying to hold back his tears.Michael paid more attention to the elderly man as he began to explain. He was so impressed by how the king had perfectly handled the situation up to this moment.If the king hadn't been watching Sage, who would have known he had a secret to reveal?Sage was weeping hard as he continued, "While the celebration was ongoing that night, I was lured out of the celebration grounds by a stranger.""Without any discussion, he gifted me five million dollars as a kind gesture."Michael and King Ja

King James was stunned and refused to believe his eyes. He felt his mind playing a trick on him as he walked closer to the shelf in doubt.Sage and Michael had their eyes on the king as they saw him stop before the shelf, staring in a direction.Meanwhile, the king was surprised that what he saw was real. The protection mirror was hidden behind other valuables on the shelf. It was a hexagonal-shaped mirror with traditional intricacies.Michael and Sage were still watching the king as he stood there when he reached for the mirror and turned to them.They were befuddled to see the traditional mirror in his hand. Who would have thought that the protection mirror, capable of saving the whole city, was sitting there?However, King James's face tightened in rage as he asked Sage, "The loyal one, tell me how this got here?"Sage's ocean of tears dried immediately as he rose to his feet. He wore a bland expression as he gave his two cents."It's very understandable, Your Highness. That foolis

King James and Michael were stunned to hear that from Sage. A surprised look was directed at the elderly man as the king snapped at him in rage."What do you mean by that, Sage? Are you trying to silence her?"Sage quickly composed himself, waving his hands in decline. "Don't get me wrong, Your Highness. I meant what else does she have to say, as it was already obvious that she is a skillful thief.""If not, how was she able to steal the key card that I used a few minutes ago to sneak into the jewel room? My king, there's a high chance that she was the one who stole the protection mirror. Her skill is highly bewildering!"Sage's stance introduced a bit of confusion into the atmosphere. However, even though his points were worth pondering, they were quite unbelievable.The king wondered how it was possible for the lady to steal the key card from him without any of them finding out. That had to be magic.The king didn't argue with Sage as he realized Sage was trying to manipulate their
Chapter 114
They were all extremely stunned to find the gemstone with the lady.The king's face turned seriously angry at her. If they hadn't caught her here, they wouldn't have discovered the theft.King James had a cold stare at her, wondering how long she had been stealing from the treasury. He was left in the middle of his thoughts, struggling to believe that she was the one who stole the protection mirror.Then, the king angrily said to her, "So, you've been the one stealing all the valuables in this treasury!""Your Highness, that's not true. This is my first time visiting the treasury, and this is the only valuable I took. Pardon me." She quickly explained with utmost fear, letting go of the black opal.Just then, a thought came to James's mind as he confronted Sage. "King adviser, I remember we only have one black opal in this treasury, and it has been given to Mr. Quinn. Where does this come from?"Sage took a moment to think before he replied, "That's true, Your Highness. We have given

They all quickly walked forward in that direction with curiosity."Who's there?!" King James asked sternly as they got closer to the corner. However, there was no response.Instantly, they all checked around the corner but couldn't find anyone.Sage heaved a sigh and said, "Could it be that we overheard things?""I don't think that's true. If not, why do we all react to the sound at the same time?" Michael's observation swept away Sage's point.Sage was about to further argue with Michael when they heard a heavier grunt right in that same spot.This time, they all caught the exact angle from which the sound came and walked briskly toward it.King James was closer to the direction. He saw nothing else there but a big, old carton that seemed to be empty. James doubted if his instinct was right as he slowly opened the empty carton.Boom!They were all shocked to find a skinny young lady hiding in the big carton. She was grunting heavily due to the excessive heat. She looked extremely exh
