2024-01-23 22:30:47Scott walked into the living room of Mr Fernando and found the whole family there waiting for him. Everyone glaring at him with looks of disgust and hate as he walked in.
It was now clear to Scott that Pedro already informed them since he was present there also."Scott,i want you to confirm if what Pedro told me just now is true." Mr Fernando spoke. "Did you try to steal the item from his office?" Mr Fernando questioned."No,Sir,it is all a misunderstanding. I didn't take it." Scott replied without hesitating or stammering."Just shut up!" Mrs Shiela chimed in,her voice mixed with anger and hatred. "You didn't take it? Why then was it found in your locker?!""I told you there was no use inviting him over. He would just keep on denying it!" Louis spat.Scott clenchend his fist in anger. If not for the fact that he needed to marry Catoline at all cost,he would have just broken up with her and get seperated from this wicked family."Scott,Pedro here showed me the video that was recorded by the surveilliance camera last night. It showed you walk into the office and when you walked in,the video blacked out." Mr Fernando explained in a cool tone as he tried to understand what was going on."Yes, i did enter into the office. But i only entered there to clean it since it's my job to clean after every worker has left." Scott responded. "And as for the surveilliance camera,i have no idea why it malfunctioned. It was probably a power cut out or something."Pedro who has been sitting there,angry that Scott seemed to be answering every single question without hiccup decided to spoke up. "Every other camera was working,except the one in the office and the one in the locker room,so it wasn't a power cut out. You probably messed with the cameras just to cover your tracks!"After hearing Pedro's words,Scott shifted his gaze to Caroline who stood there with a look of surprise and disbelief. Scott could see that Caroline was starting to believe the words Pedro spoke."And when the item was found in his locker today,he claimed to have no idea how it got there and he has a witness who can testify that they were both together the whole time. But when i questioned the so called witness,she said Scott was lying and they both never hung out!" Pedro continued."I honestly have no idea how the item ended up in my locker. I think someone planted it there!" Scott voiced out,his gaze fixed on Pedro which sent shivers down his spine and he began to sweat."What do you mean someone planted it there?" Mr Fernando asked with an attentive look."I don't know. A poor boy like me getting married to a girl who has turned down lots of guys. It normal that maybe one of those guys who has been chasing her isn't happy about our marriage is trying to frame me and make me look like a bad guy and make you cancek the wedding." Scott explained in a confident tone.All the while Scott explained,his eyes was fixated on Pedro who now hadca nervous expression and became restless."You speak nonsense,Trash!" Aunt Zaya chimed in. "Who would seriously get jealous for a nobody like you? You are nothing but a trash that belongs in the gutter and not worthy of marrying the only daughter of Mr Fernando!"This time around,Scott chuckled after hearing Aunt Zaya's words which made her face go bright red in anger."I think you are just jealous that someone younger than you is getting married before you. I mean,look at you,you are close to 40 years and still living with your brother." Scott shook his head in disapointment.Aunt Zaya and other family member clenchened their fist and gritted their teeth in anger as Scott talked back at her."Look at him,he has no respect. He stole from us and still has the guts to insult Zaya!" Mrs Shiela voiced out in anger."I think Scott is right." Mr Fernando said." And besides he didn't insult anyone. He only stated facts. And by the way,did the camera record Scott actually taking the item?" Mr Fernando inquired,shifting his gaze towards the nervous Pedro."No,Sir. He messed with the camera before it could capture him leaving with it." Pedro replied."I promise i didn't take it. Give me a couple of days to prove to you that i am innocent." Scott spoke up.The entire living room became silent as Scott spoke those words. Everyone was waiting for Mr Fernando to give his final decision."It's not like i believe you,Scott,but i am jusy giving you a chance to prove yourself and bring out evidence that proves your innocence." Mr Fernando stated. "You have 10 days to prove yourself. Unfailingly,I will cancel this wedding and sentence you to prison."The entire room began to murmur among themselves after hearing Mr Fernando's decision towards Scott. They felt like Mr Fernando already liked Scott even if he was out of their league."Thank you,Sir. I would try to prove my innocence." Scott replied joyfully before walking out of the living room and racking his brain on how he was going to prove his innocence.

Exiting the mansion, Scott headed straight home. He lacked the monet to use public transport since he left his debit card at home due to rush, so he ended up treking.While walking through the street under the afternoon sun, Scott began to ponder on just how he would dig out some evidence that would prove his innocence to Mr. Fernando.He was certain that Pedro planted that object in his locker just to frame him and prevent the wedding, but with no concrete evidence no one would believe him.And to make matters worse, he only has 10 days to fulfill the task.'I can't let the wedding being called off. I still need to get married into that family so i could watch them from the inside.' Scott pondered, walking through the street with his hands tucked in his pockets.The only reason why he came into the country, disguising as Scott, was to investigate a certain family.

"Come with me." Scott uttered, turning around and moving forward, but the lady's arm still pulled him back."What about the body? Are we just going to leave it here?" She questioned, her eyes filled with fear.Scott glanced at her frightful look, before shifting his gaze towards the body once more, confused on what to do."There is a lagoon few blocks away from here. But before the lagoon, there is a police checkpoint. If we can get a truck or something, we can go there by midnight and dumb the body inside the lagoon." The lady spoke. "But for now let's hide the body somewhere." She added."That is too dangerous. What if the police finds it before we arrive midnight?" Scott asked. "Come on, help me a bit." Scott uttered, moving closer to the body and lifting it off the floor with all his might."What are you doing?" She asked in confusion."I live in a deserted area. There is no cop around there and there is hardly anyone living around there. It's locted three streets away from here."

Scott picked up his phone and glancef at the screen. What displayed on the screen was his chat with his associate earlier that he forgot to wipe.'She definitely read it.' Scott pondered, tightening the phone in his hand out of anger before turning around to face her."It's getting late. I will head out to go rent the truck now." Scott spoke with a slight smile."All right." Marie responded.Scott gave a nod before stepping out of the room, pretending he knew nothing about Marie reading the text.Scott exited the room and made his way out of the building with his head filled with thoughts. He still doesn't know fully who Marie was or if she could be trusted, and with her knowing part of his secrets might complicate matters more for him.'Now i'm begining to regret helping her. What am saying? I already regret helping her. If only i have minded my goddamn business, all these wouldn't have happened!' Scott pondeered, walking through the streets.

Scott srarted the truck and drove it out of the parking lot.'The money he paid is worth that truck itself. Guess God just sent me a fool, haha.' The man laughed before sitting back down to continue his sleep.***Thunder runbling, wind blowing, and rain falling heavily. Scott sat inside the truck, his gaze fixed on the road as he drove through the street. The rain made it difficult for him to see clearly, and he was somewhat a beginer in driving because back home he had bunch of professional drivers that drove him anywhere he wanted to go.'Now i can freely dump this truck along with the body. That way i will get rid of all evidence and put an end to this case permanently.' Scott pondered, his hand on the steering and his gaze fixed attentively on the dark road.'I still have the issue with Mr. Fernando, so i have to fix all these and then focus on digging up an evidence.' Scott intoned, driving back home.***Scott drove for almost an hour, until he finally arrived home. He pulled o

Seconds after Scott received the text, he heard the sound of car driving into the compound with lights brightening the place.'Goddamn it.' Scott screamed internally after recognizing car from where he sat."Who's that?" Marie questioned."My fiancé." Scott responded. "Just stay here, and stay down. I'll be right back." Scott instructed before ailighting the truck and stepping into the heavy rain. He moved towards Caroline who was alredy getting off her expensive Poarch with a pink umbrella covering her head.'If Marie spots Caroline, she might recognize her instanty as the daughter of Mr. Fernando and that would only make things complicated. If Catoline also sees Marie, questioms would be asked.' Scott pondered as he made his way towards Caroline who was busy locking her car."Hey." Scoty greeted with a smile."Hi." Caroline responded.

The warehouse was huge, and two resaonably large men could be seen standing at the entrance with guns in their hands.Inside the warehouse was dimly lit, and a man could be seen sitting comfortably on a chair with four guys infront of him.The man was dressed in a red suit and red trousers. His fist and neck, even his face was covered with tattoos, and his neck was filled with gold chains and silver chains.In his mouth was a big round cigar.He liftted up his right hand and took the cigar off his mouth and smoke oozed out from his moth and nosetrils."Speak."

Exiting the building through the back door, the duo ran like headless chickens back home.It took them nothing less than one hour before they arrived back all drenched beause of the rain. They both rushed inside and Scott collapsed on his bed instantly with his arms stretched and he was panting heavily."Phew. That was close." Marie spoke, sitting on the floor and panting heavily. "Atleast it's all over now." She added."All over my arse." Scott's voice sounded from where he laid like someone who just got off a construction work."What do you mean? We dumped the truck, the cops didn't see us, it's a win for us." Marie uttered, bewildered by Scott's words."The problem with you is that you are so dumb."Scott was really pissed off by her words, but didn't raise his voice a bit.

Marie informed with a smile while pointing towards the table that was filled with food."Thank you." Scott responded while having a seat and began to dig in instantly."So, where are you headed?" Marie questioned, her words wasn't too clear because her mouth was filled with food, but Scott could understand her words."I work as a cleaner in a company. So i headed there now. After that i have somewhere else to be when i get back home." Scott responded, filling his mouth with bread and eggs.'I am right.

"I was wondering when we’d finally meet in person," Scott added, his piercing gaze never wavering.A cold shiver ran down Wang Jian’s spine.For a long moment, Wang Jian stood motionless, his heart pounding against his ribcage, his breath caught in his throat. He had spent days searching for this man, hunting him down with unwavering determination, yet now, standing face to face with him, he felt something he hadn’t anticipated—intimidation.There was something about Scott’s presence, something suffocating. His sharp gaze alone sent an icy dread creeping down Wang Jian’s spine, an unspoken dominance radiating from his every movement.After a few tense moments, Wang Jian swallowed hard and finally spoke, his voice carefully controlled. "And you must be Scott. You look more handsome in person."Scott’s expression remained unmoved, his eyes locked onto Wang Jian with deadly focus. "You've gone too far," he said coldly. "You killed my men, turned my friend against me, and nearly burnt dow
Wang Jian's men VS The Concrete army PT2 [Bonus chapter]
"Ahhhh!" The man screamed as he began to fall, and as his body plummeted through the air, the Concrete Men swiftly shifted their guns toward him and opened fire.However, the moment their attention wavered, Wang Jian's men surged out of the mansion like a wave, their weapons raised, unleashing a relentless barrage of gunfire. The sudden ambush caught the Concrete Men off guard, bullets tearing through their ranks as they scrambled for cover. Blood splattered across the pavement, bodies collapsing like marionettes with severed strings.Despite the chaos unfolding outside, Feng remained inside one of the mansion’s rooms, watching from the second-floor window. A smirk tugged at his lips, his expression void of remorse. He had just sacrificed one of his own, yet there was no flicker of guilt in his cold, calculating eyes. To him, it was nothing more than a necessary move on the chessboard of war.Down below, the gunfight intensified. Wang Jian's men continued their relentless advance, the
Wang Jian's men VS The Concrete army
The deafening explosion sent guards stumbling as dust and debris filled the air. Every head snapped toward the breach, eyes widening with alarm.Inside the mansion, Wang Jian’s grip tightened around his whiskey glass, the sound of destruction reverberating through the halls. His jaw clenched."What was that noise?!" he demanded, swiftly rising to his feet.His men ignored him, too focused on rushing toward the back of the mansion to investigate. Wang Jian stood motionless for a moment, his mind racing, before striding forward.Before he could take a step, a firm hand gripped his arm from behind. Wang Jian turned sharply, scowling as he met Cao Ning’s wary gaze."What’s the matter?" Wang Jian’s voice carried a sharp edge of irritation."That sound—it’s most likely Scott and his men," Cao Ning said, his tone steady but urgent. "We don’t know how many of them are out there or what kind of firepower they brought. For your safety, I think it’s best you stay inside."Wang Jian’s face twiste
Good choice
"You lost the combat… now you must die." Scott stated coldly. Without hesitation, he pulled the trigger.BANG!Blood splattered across the ground as the bullet tore through Podrick’s skull, his lifeless body crumpling to the dirt. Scott watched in silence for a moment, his gaze impassive as he observed the corpse at his feet. Then, without another word, he turned on his heel and strode toward his truck.Lee and Evelyn stood waiting beside the vehicle. Evelyn’s breath hitched as she saw Scott approaching, a cold sweat trickling down her face. Every instinct screamed at her to run, but she knew it was pointless.Scott came to a halt just a few paces away."You fought well, boss," Lee commented, offering a slight bow of respect."I wouldn't call that a fight," Scott replied dismissively before shifting his piercing gaze toward Evelyn. "Now that I'm done with Podrick, what do I do with you?" He said.Evelyn swallowed hard, her body frozen under his scrutiny. Her lips trembled, but she for
The combat [Bonus chapter]
The trucks drove away immediately after Scott gave the order, leaving the deserted area eerily silent. The only people left were Scott, Lee, Podrick, and Evelyn.Scott stood opposite Podrick, rolling up his sleeves in preparation. His movements were slow and deliberate, exuding an air of absolute control. Podrick, on the other hand, remained tense, his jaw clenched as his muscles coiled with anticipation. Beside him, Evelyn stood with her hands bound, her heart hammering against her ribcage.She wasn’t sure what her fate would be.So far, Scott hadn’t said a single word to her—hadn’t even acknowledged her presence. It was as if she were a mere ghost, a shadow in the periphery of the unfolding scene. The only one who seemed to truly see her was Podrick.Evelyn was part of Wang Jian's army, and she had killed one of Scott's men in the past. If Scott had sentenced Podrick to death for betrayal, then surely, her fate was sealed as well.And yet, for some reason, he hadn't addressed her.I
Trial by combat
The place fell silent after Scott finished speaking, and all eyes were now fixed on Podrick. He stood there, fidgeting, his entire body trembling like a leaf caught in a storm. The pistol he held in his right hand shook so violently that it was a miracle he hadn’t dropped it yet. Sweat poured down his face like a relentless waterfall, dampening his collar and soaking into the fabric of his shirt. His breaths were uneven, shallow gasps barely able to sustain his body. His mind screamed at him to run, but his feet remained rooted to the ground, paralyzed by the inescapable reality before him.There was no point in lying—he had been caught. There was also no escaping this.A bitter laugh nearly escaped his lips at the cruel irony of it all. After everything he had done, after all the calculated moves he had made, it had all been for nothing. His only wish now was for the earth beneath him to split open and swallow him whole, to spare him from the fate he knew awaited him. But no such m
Podrick Gustav
Then, the door of the last truck swung open, and a striking young man emerged. He stepped out with an air of quiet authority, shutting the door behind him with a deliberate motion before striding forward. His presence alone commanded attention, and the moment his boots touched the ground, an eerie silence fell over the area. He came to a halt a few paces in front of the gathered men, his dark eyes scanning them with the cold detachment of a predator assessing its prey.The instant Podrick caught sight of him, his breath hitched, and his face drained of all color. His eyes widened in sheer terror.“B…boss,” he stammered, his voice barely more than a whisper.Scott regarded him with an unreadable expression, his face devoid of any visible emotion. “Hello, traitor,” he stated, his voice smooth and steady, yet laced with an underlying menace that sent shivers down Podrick’s spine.Podrick swallowed hard, feeling a bead of cold sweat trickle down his temple. His heartbeat pounded furiously
Hello, traitor.
Wang Jian stood there in silence after hearing the words of the man, and a troubled expression evident on his face. After a few moments of silence he finally spoke up, "That's bullshit. Podrick will never lie to me.""Why won't he? I mean, you're also lying to him. You're deceiving him also...what makes you think he won't do the same?" The man questioned."Because he has no idea I'm deceiving him! I made him believe I will reward him greatly if he helps me defeat Scott and his army, and that's exactly what he has been doing so far.!" Wang Jian barked, his tone laced with anger."I'm just saying...if Scott didn't go to the bridge then where exactly is he? He's a foreigner here...I doubt he knows anyone here...so where could he have gone to?" The man bellowed."Podrick told me a few days ago that Scott has an Asian in his army...if the Asian guy is from China then he definitely knows every corner in this city, and he could have taken Scott anywhere in this city." Wang Jian bellowed. "An
False information?
A slow, rhythmic plop-plop-plop filled the air as blood dripped slowly to the flow. Feng had successfully cut Memphis's pinky finger off. Memphis screamed for several minutes, and now he was exhausted. He had no strength to scream again in agony, and all he did was knelt down there and bare the pain in silence.Wang Jian's men still held his arm up, and Wang Jian himself stood a few paces away with the rest of his men, watching the gruesome scene with an expressionless look. He watched as though what was happening wasn't serious at all. As though he was watching a boring movie.Cao Ning, on the other hand, wasn't pleased by what was happening. He has been with Wang Jian for many months, and he has helped him carry out his dirty business. Usually, he would just shoot his enemies in the head or chest, giving them a quick death. Although he has shed lots of blood in the past, he couldn't stand the sight of Memphis being tortured.As much as he wants to stop everything by just killing him
