"I have one last job for you, Podrick." Wang Jian stated, his gaze fixed intently on Podrick.

"A job? What job?" Podrick inquired with a slight look of puzzle.

"I want you to return back to Scott's base and steal the Bazooka. He already trusts you, so it shouldn't be hard." Wang Jian bellowed.

Hearing the words of Wang Jian, Podrick's eyes widened in shock.

"You're kidding, right?" He muttered.

"Does it look like I'm joking to you?" Wang Jian asked.

"You have to be joking. There's no way I'm going back there." Podrick voiced out.

"Why not?" Wang Jian questioned.

"What do you mean why not? I vanished after the battle then suddenly appeared several hours later...you think Scott won't suspect anything?" Podrick voiced.

"No, I don't think he wil. All you have to do is tell him the perfect lie and make him believe." Wang Jian stated.

"Nope. I can't do this. It's too risky." Podrick muttered.

"If you don't do this then I guess you can say goodbye to all that I promised you!" Wang Jian spat,

    Johnny and the rest of the men that were chosen by Scott marched out of the mansion and made their way to their cars. Johnny pulled the door open and placed the bag gently inside before moving to the driver's seat. Podrick watched him before entering his own car.The moment Podrick sat in the driver's seat of his car and shut the door, he pulled out his phone and began to dial a number. The phone rang for a while until It was finally answered."Hello, boss." Podrick muttered immediately after the call was answered, and his voice was barely above a whisper."Look who finally decided to call." Wang Jian's voice sounded over the phone."I'm sorry I didn't call you..I just didn't get the chance to." Podrick muttered."I see. As long as you're doing exactly what I told you to do, we won't have a problem." Wang Jian bellowed. "Why are you calling me today?""I got something." Podrick stated. "I'm listening." Wang Jian said."Scott ordered his men to head toward an apartment that is located

    A total of four sleek black cars cruised down a deserted street, their engines rumbling softly. The street stretched out, barren and lifeless, with only the vehicles of Scott’s men disturbing the quiet.Johnny sat behind the wheel of his car, his left hand gripping the steering wheel while his right hand clutched his phone. The device’s screen displayed a map.A sudden vibration in his hand caught his attention. His eyes flickered toward the screen, where a text message notification had just appeared. The sender’s name made him tense—Scott.“Hm...” Johnny muttered under his breath, his gaze fixed on the brief message from his boss. After reading the text, his brows furrowed slightly before he switched off the phone and placed both hands firmly on the wheel. His knuckles whitened as his grip tightened.He kept driving straight for several minutes, his eyes locked on the road, every turn of the wheel deliberate. Then, with a sharp movement, he swerved the car and veered onto a narrow, d

  • Trillionaire they never noticed   Get the bag

    Wang Jian's men shattered the window of the first car with the handle of their guns, and they slid their hands inside the car through the broken window and began to force the door open. A few moments later, the door opened. Without any delay, they began to search the car.They searched for several minutes, but unfortunately they found nothing. The car was empty, so they went straight to the second one which was Johnny's car. They broke the window swiftly and forced the door open before searching.Cao Ning stood beside his bike a few meters away as he watched his comrades search every corner of the car. After searching for a few seconds, they finally found the bag."This has to be it." One of the gangsters said in Chinese as he grabbed the bag and exited the car. He walked towards Cao Ning, and the rest of the men followed suit."I found it." He halted this step in front of Cao Ning and said.Cao Ning stretched forth his right hand and touched the bag. He moved his hand around the bag

    Wang Jian sat comfortably in his living room. He was clad in a Navy blue suit, and a white bowler hat sitting on his head. He held a big round cigarette in-between his middle fingers, and every now and then he took a drag and puffed out a huge cloud of smoke.As he sat there in silence the entrance door flung open, and Cao Ning walked inside. When Wang Jian spotted the bag he held in his right hand, his eyes lit up."You got it?" He blurted out in disbelief.Cao Ning kept walking forward, and when he was a few paces away from him, he placed the bag gently on the table."There's the bag you asked for. Found it in one of the cars Scott's men abandoned." Cao Ning stated audibly, and a smirk appeared on Wang Jian's face.He rose to his feet and moved closer to the bag."Good Job, Cao Ning." Wang Jian commented, his gaze fixed on the bag. "Now that I have the Bazooka I see no reason for us to be afraid of Scott." He bellowed.Wang Jian glanced at the bag for a few more moments before he be

  • Trillionaire they never noticed   They belong to you

    A puzzled expression appeared on Scott's face after hearing the words of Wei Jun, and he asked, "You've been expecting me?"The woman beside him listened to his words attentively before translating it, "He asked if you've been expecting him." She said in Chinese."Of course I have. Isn't he the new head of the empire? When I heard he was in Hong Kong, and when I also heard about the war I knew he'd come seeking my help." Wei Jun articulated audibly."He said he knew you'd come seeking his help after he heard about the war happening in this city." The woman shifted her gaze back to Scott and translated."Ah, I see. If you already know what I came here for, will you help me?" Scott questioned."He is asking if you will help him with what he came here for." The woman standing beside Wei Jun stated in Chinese."Why don't you come inside? Have some tea?" Wei Jun muttered."He's inviting you in for some tea." The woman informed."That'd be nice." Scott affirmed, and Wei Jun bowed slightly.

  • Trillionaire they never noticed   Enemy's UAV spotted

    Wei Jun rose to his feet after hearing the words of Scott, and he told him to come with him. They all exited the living room through a backdoor, and they began to walk through a dimly lit hallway. A black metallic door could be seen a few meters away as they walked forward.A few moments later they arrived in front of the door. Wei Jun stepped forward and unlocked it. After unlocking it he pushed the door open and they all stepped outside.When they stepped outside, they found themselves in what looked like a vast open field. Standing at the center of the field were dozens of men.All of them were shirtless, and they all wore black leather pants. They were all armed with guns and machetes, and their expressions were fierce and deadly."Here are the men you asked for." Wei Jun spoke up, his right hand pointed at the men.Scott walked forward slowly, his gaze fixated on the armed men standing before him. They were all lined up neatly in a total of five different rolls, and Scott walked

    Memphis swiftly made his way into the mansion to prepare himself, with Johnny following suit without any delay. Podrick, on the other hand, remained rooted to the spot, his mind racing with thoughts."Why did Wang Jian choose to attack so suddenly? Is it because he finally got the bazooka and decided not to waste even a second?" Podrick pondered internally.He hadn’t expected Wang Jian to attack Scott so soon. Even though Wang Jian had obtained the weapon he had been chasing for the past week, Podrick assumed he would take a few days to come up with a strategy to defeat Scott. But for some reason, Wang Jian was already on his way here, and it hadn't even been two hours since his men stole the weapon.Those were the thoughts swirling in Podrick’s mind."Well, I guess he made up his mind, and there's nothing I can do about it," he mused before heading into the mansion.Inside, Scott's men were already preparing themselves for the battle. Each of them now wore black bulletproof vests and

    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

  • Position

    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

  • Acting leader?

    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
