Theo paused in his words and shifted his gaze towards Scott after hearing the words he had just said.

"We need to have a little chat, Theo." Scott said, his gaze fixed on Theo who had a sight look of puzzle on his face.

Theo shifted his gaze back to the lady he was talking to before Scott arrived and said, "Go wait for me in the toilet. I'll be there in a bit." Theo smirked, and the lady kissed him on the lips before heading to the toilet.

"What are you doing, Carden?" Theo then moved his gaze back to Scott and questioned.

"A man who has a wife asking another man's wife to wait for him in the toilet so he can have sex with her?" Scott commented as he watched the lady walk away.

"That's none of your business, Carden. You and I know I don't love Tori. I never did. I only got close to her so I can get close to you." Theo frowned after hearing the words of Scott.

"Right, right. Speaking of Tori, well, I think you've landed yourself into a deep shit, man." Scott remarked.

Scott, get out of the now they are closing in on me!" The ordered as he shifted his gaze backwards and could see the special force agents running towards him. Though, they were still several meters away from him, but he was afraid that if he keeps delaying they will catch up with him. "I cannot escape you, Theo. Your web of deceit will always be around me." Scott bellowed coldly as he stood there glaring at Theo. "What the fuck are you talking about?!" Theo spat with his heart pounding in his chest. "Every time I close my eyes I see you. Yeah. I see you telling everyone my secret even after I granted your request. I can't let that happen." Scott said. "Look, Scott, forget about what I told you earlier. In fact, I don't know any of your bloody secret! It was all a lie to get you to comply!

Scott retrieved it, and without wasting anytime he wrote the address and handed it back to Mrs. Charlotte."An abandoned warehouse. That's what I thought." Mrs. Charlotte commented after glancing at the address. "Can you help me keep an eye on Mike?" She requested."The son of Mr Dominic?" Scott inquired."Yeah. The nerd with the glasses. Mr Dominic said I shouldn't work tonight but I can't just let this slide so I can babysit a grown ass boy." Mrs. Charlotte said with a frown."All right. I'll keep an eye on Mike till you return.

Your Boss, Theo Lahey, was the one who murdered him!" Mrs. Charlotte voiced out."I swear on my late son, I have no idea who Sergeant Barry is!" The man blurted."Or could it be that your boss killed him in secret and you all didn't know about it?"

    Back at the party venue...Scott could be seen sitting quietly acrossthe hall with his arms folded, and his gaze fixated on Mike who was busy dancing at the center of the place and having fun. Mike was indeed a good dancer, and his nice moves caught the attention of everyone in the hall. They all gathered around to watch and cheer, while some sprayed money on him.After dancing for a few moments he then performed a backflip to conclude the whole thing, and everyone gave a round of applause. "Thank you!" He smiled and waved as he walked back to where Scott sat."Hey, man, did you see that?" Mike asked gleefully while wiping the beads of sweat off his face with his handkerchief."Yup. I saw everything. You're a good dancer, Mike." Scott replied, his expression decipherable."Thank you." Mike muttered. "I used to attend dance classes and also learn some moves online. I had hopes of becoming a professional dancer, but my Dad told me I should bury that idea because he wants me to become

    Caroline stood there in silence after hearing the words of Frederick, and a slight look of disbelief evident on her face."Scott threatened you with a gun?" She blurted out in shock. "Yes, he fucking did!" Frederick voiced out. "That man is dangerous, I tell you. But he's not as dangerous as me. Give me your permission, Caroline, and I shall involve my boys. That man is only alive up till this moment because you told me to not make a move." He added. Caroline went mute once again. The fact that Scott had a gun sounded foreign to her, but alas, she guessed where he must have gotten the gun from. "He has been spending a lot of time with my father, I'm sure he got the gun from him." She said after a few moments of silence. "Scott Camden and your father are buddies?" Frederick questioned in bewilderment. "Yes. Scott helped him a few times and they have been really close since then. My father trusts him, that's one of the reason why we can't kill him now because if he suddenly goes mi

Chief Jim replied.Hearing the words of Chief Jim, Scott walked to the car and stepped inside before shutting the door. He leaned his back on the seat as he spoke up, "Okay? I'm listening."

    Meanwhile… Elsewhere on Scott’s estate…In a quiet, deserted section of the property, four guards sat in a loose circle on wooden chairs, their flashlights clutched in their left hands while their rifles hung over their shoulders. The air was cool and thick with silence, broken only by the occasional rustle of leaves or the chirping of distant insects.They were stationed near the outer boundary of the estate—a less-traveled area that bordered dense woods. "I can't believe boss is back, man." One of the guards said, raising his plastic and sipping the gin he held in his right hand."I can't believe that after all these months he finally returned. Many said he was dead, some said he abandoned the empire because of all the responsibilities. But he's finally back." Another guard spoke up, and a joyful expression evident on his face."I'm really glad he's back. Even though I haven't met him or see him, I know he's a good and generous man. He increases our salary every month back then. No

    Scott walked up the staircase, ascending toward his room with slow, deliberate steps. When he reached the door, he paused for a moment before pushing it open. Scott stood silently at the threshold, his eyes sweeping across the space as a distant, unreadable expression settled on his face.The room was exactly as he had left it months ago. Not a single thing seemed out of place. There were no cobwebs in the corners, no dust blanketing the surfaces—clear evidence that the maids had continued tending to it regularly. They must have believed he would one day return, and they had kept it in perfect shape, almost as if time had stopped here."At least he didn't touch my room," Scott murmured to himself, stepping inside and gently closing the door behind him.He moved toward the bed and sat down heavily, leaning his elbows on his knees, his back hunched and his mind consumed with thought. His face remained expressionless, but his eyes told a different story—one of confusion, disappointment,

  • Welcome back, boss!

    Scott ran his fingers through his sleek black hair and paced back and forth on the raised platform. The things he was hearing now were vastly different from how things had been just months ago. It felt like everything had changed completely—as if he had been gone for years—yet it hadn't even been a full year since his departure."You mean Sandro never used the money I sent him to support the companies?" Scott finally questioned, his voice edged with disbelief."No, he didn’t," Kael replied audibly. "Whenever I told him the company was running low on cash, he would say we should manage because you hadn’t been answering your calls. The company was slowly going bankrupt because there was no money to sustain it. That’s why I took those loans.""Sandro?" Scott echoed bitterly. "How could he do this to me? I trusted him.""I don’t think now is the time for you to worry about that, boss. You literally just got back home after months. You should’ve told me you were coming—I would have—""What

  • Everything's changed

    Kael stood motionless on the raised platform, a puzzled expression evident on his face as his eyes locked onto the sleek black car slowly driving onto the green field. The murmuring of the crowd faded into a tense silence as all heads turned to watch the vehicle approach. A thick wave of curiosity and unease swept through them, each person wondering who could possibly be inside.They all recognized the vehicle. It wasn’t just any car—it was a limousine reserved exclusively for the highest-ranking members of the empire. But all known high-ranking figures were already present on the field. The presence of this particular car raised an immediate and unsettling question: who else could it be?Down on the wooden platform, Jude Gallagher remained on his knees, his wrists still bound. He squinted at the advancing limousine, his breath caught in his throat. Then, slowly, a wide grin crept across his bruised face.“He’s… back,” he muttered softly, the words barely a whisper, yet somehow still

  • Public execution

    The sleek black limousine kept driving through the street, and after what seemed like forever, they finally arrived inside an estate. This estate belonged to Scott, and tall mansions could be seen here and there. Scott sat in the car, examining the whole estate through the window."How I've missed this place," he mused with a smile, and the Limo kept driving forward. But Scott noticed something was wrong."Where is everyone?" he asked, raising a brow."They're all at the green field. Kael is going to execute Jude Gallagher today. The man betrayed the empire, and today is the day he will be judged," Jerry responded."Jude Gallagher? The accountant?" Scott questioned."Yes, sir. Kael recently discovered that Jude has been stealing money from the company. He’s been using the funds he stole to build a gang. Kael found his little territory where he kept his weapons—guns, daggers, machetes... and other ammunition. He’s also been using the money to hire men to work for him. Kael says he's be

    Elsewhere...Scott had already booked the flight and successfully paid all the bills. Now, he sat inside the plane after waiting for several minutes. He was seated by the window, and beside him was Ali. Ali had his head down, cold sweat trickling down his face as he muttered prayers under his breath.It felt like he was right back in Scott's jet, and it was crashing all over again. He hadn’t recovered from the shock and fear he felt during that incident, so right now, he was freaking out while sitting there.Scott, on the other hand, remained silent. His arms were folded, and his back leaned against the seat. His head was filled with thoughts, wondering how his home would look when he returned. It had been close to a year since he left, and he couldn't help but wonder how much had changed while he was away.He knew one thing for sure—things wouldn’t be the same. A lot must have changed, and many people might have even forgotten him.Scott pondered for several minutes, and when the pil

    Mr. Leeray grabbed the wooden table with a single hand and lifted it into the air, and he instantly spotted the man hiding under it. He tossed the table to the side of the room and shifted his gaze back to Joe. Joe's heart raced, his eyes filled with terror, and cold sweat trickled down his face. "What's the matter? Come on, rise up," Mr. Leeray gestured, and Joe hesitated. "I said rise up, man. You have no reason to be scared. As long as you do exactly what I tell you to do, we won't have a problem," Mr. Leeray added. Joe hesitated for a few seconds before rising up slowly. Before he could rise fully, Mr. Leeray grabbed him by the collar and picked him up aggressively. He moved swiftly to the wall and pinned him against it. "Please... don't kill me. I haven't wronged you in any way," Joe whimpered, and tears gathered in his eyes. "I won't kill you if you tell me what I need to know," Mr. Leeray spat, and his gaze fixed intently on Joe. "Where are my weapons?!" he questioned in

    The officer marched into the office, his expression fierce and unrelenting, his hands tightly gripping his AK-47. He scanned the room for a few tense moments before speaking.“Time’s up. Back to your cell,” he said, his voice deep and firm.“Remember what I told you. I’ll be back in two days,” Chief Jim whispered just as the officer approached Perez, grabbed him by the arm, and lifted him from his seat. Perez gave a silent nod, then exited the room alongside the officer.Shortly after they left, Chief Jim let out a heavy sigh and rose to his feet. He adjusted his shirt, smoothing out the creases with steady hands, before walking out of the room. As he stepped outside the station, the cool air met his face. He headed straight to his car, pulled the door open, got in, started the engine, and drove off without hesitation.---Somewhere else in the city…Inside the lavish living room of an opulent mansion, a towering man stood with commanding presence. His body was thick with muscle, his

    Hearing the words of Chief Jim, Perez’s eyes widened, and his expression was a mixture of surprise and disbelief.“What in the world are you talking about, Chief?!” Perez blurted out in disbelief.“Sshhh… keep your voice down,” Chief Jim hushed, and Perez swiftly covered his mouth with both hands.“What in the world are you talking about, Chief?” he repeated his question, but this time in a hushed tone.“You heard me right, Perez. I’m breaking you all out of there,” Chief Jim affirmed.“What? How? How are you even going to do that?” Perez questioned.“I have a plan already. Don’t worry about that,” Chief Jim responded. “I just came here to fill you in and tell you to get yourselves ready.”“Okay, but why do you want to do it? Why are you so eager to get us out of here? I have a feeling it’s not because you don’t like seeing us behind bars,” Perez questioned.Chief Jim sighed heavily, then leaned his hands on the table. “The last time I came here to visit you, I told you Jordan was the
