LOSTAs soon as Lincoln stepped forward, he was interrupted by his phone ring “Who is this?” he snapped as he answered it, annoyed at the interruption.“It's stone, don't worry about the guy at the restaurant and just come here”.“Who is trying to bargain with me now?” Lincoln grumbled as he hung up and before he could slide his phone back into his pocket, his phone rang again “Who is it?” he asked again.“Don't worry about that, you can't afford to offend those at the restaurant, leave them and come over here right now”.Lincoln needed no introduction to know who it was “You know better than stone and still trying to order me around” Lincoln complained as he hung up the second time.And when his phone rang the third time, he had to resist the urge to throw it across the room “What!” he screamed.“This is Alex, I work for Duke. If you want to avenge losing your arm you should come and meet me at Lucky’s palm” Alex hung up before Lincoln could respond’Lincoln’s finger trembled at the

THE CRASHEdward and mailey were standing stiffly to the car, their faces pale.“Hello I'm Brian Maxwell,” he said as he approached the police officer. “ You got lucky, nothing was damaged besides some grass so you don't have to worry about paying for the destruction of the property. It's up to you to file a report for your insurance” the officer informed him.Brian signed as he couldn't file a complaint for a car without revealing to his family since the car was actually his.“ I'm not going to file a report, thank you though,” he replied.“All right,” the officer nodded. “ Just be careful about who you lend your car to in the future” the officer got back in his car and drove away.“ How much is the cost for repair?” Mailey asked.“Are you offering to pay for the damages you caused?” brian asked.She scoffed “ absolutely not since it's your car, whatever happens to it is your responsibility” she said.“So you're just going to pretend like you wouldn't have thrown me out of the car If
EXPOSEDWhen Jeffery noticed how angry brian was becoming, he took a deep breath and shook his head to calm down “ it's just that your situation seems totally unbelievable urrehh let's just get down to business” brian was still frowning but seemed receptive to change the subject.“After everything we did the other day, I'm still trying to figure out why Duke hasn't made any move,” Jeffery said.“ Things won't be quiet for long, just be patient,” Brian replied. There was no way Duke would take such a huge loss in cash and talent without retaliating, Duke was probably planning to make sure his next move made an impact.Brian didn't doubt that duke was keeping an eye and their every move all these while.Stone knocked at the door before stepping into the office “ I just got a word from Alex, he said duke set up an i underground fighting ring and besides the cash price the winner also gst a chance to have a meal with him” Jeffery sat up straight “ are you sure that this news came for a r
The courage Brian snorted “If you're hitting a woman, then you might be a bigger piece of trash than I am. He yanked on Billy's arm, forcing him to take several steps back and release Sheila. Sheila was staring at Brian with surprise. She had a generally low opinion of him thinking he mooched off his wife. But she had never seen him confront anyone. “Why is he standing up for me?” She wondered. Billy was steaming with anger at being called out by Brian.“Take a good look, everybody. It's the loser, also known as Samantha’s husband. Billy yelled out at the crowd. He hoped embarrassing Brian would get him to let go. Several people started filming on their phones. Everyone looked between the trio and confused, and those just joining the crowd didn't know whom to blame for the conflict. Billy faced Brian again, satisfied that he had had enough of the people's attention. Unfortunately for Billy, Brian received constant disrespect at home. The opinions of a random wife-beater or a crowd
The Face-off“Are you sure you're telling me the whole truth? She asked.”Because if you are, what does Catherine mean by sending this to me?” She picked up her phone and showed him a message that Catherine had sent her.“Your husband really looked so cool when he was fighting. Turns out he's not that useless after all”, it said.” He defended you beautifully, Thank him for me”.She put down her cell phone and looked at him. “how did you defend me? Tell me honestly what happened” she demanded.“Because when I called Catherine to ask what she was talking about, she wouldn't give me a straight answer either”.Brian looked at her while he decided what to say. He knew that he couldn't tell her the truth. “Catherine is your best friend”, he said smoothly. “Of course, I'm going to defend both you and her. If you don't like it, I'll avoid her from now on”. Catherine opened her mouth to reply, but no words came out. If she said nothing, it implied that she condoned his fighting. But if she to
BATTLE“Long time no see, Tarzan,” said Lincoln as the announcer fled the ring. “Welcome, Lincoln are you here to take revenge on me? Tarzan ask.“You know that you're no match for me”.The room went quiet as the crowd strained to hear what they were saying. The two men had known each other for years. Lincoln knew that he wasn't as strong as Tarzan. He knew he was risking it all by even standing in the ring with the other man. Especially with a broken arm.“I know you worked for him”, said Lincoln “I used to do the same work for him that you're doing now, but have you ever thought that he'll do to you what he did to me? Tarzan laughs “.Don't blame anyone for your situation”, he said. “You are the one who betrayed him, you traitor”. He added before he lunged toward him, Lincoln took a deep breath. He knew that he had to win this fight at all costs. As Tarzan came within reach. He punched him with all his might with his uninjured arm. Tarzan kept running, not even trying to avoid the p

Let's see Lincoln Ragnar, he said between puffs. “Welcome,” he said. But Lincoln said nothing.He stared at Duke with burning eyes full of vengeance. “I'm talking to you”, said Duke loudly. “Are you deaf?” The guards standing behind Lincoln shook his arm. “Answer the man”, he said curtly. Lincoln clenched his fists and then loosened them. “Long time no see Duke”. He replied.Brian and Stone had left the mall after the competition. “Let's go to the Industry’, he said“Aren't we going to wait for Lincoln?” Asked Stone, surprised that he seemed to have given up so easily. “You thought Lincoln would have needed our help?” Lincoln can look after himself, said Brian.
