The vase smashed against the wall, narrowly missing Philips forehead by a second. Felix stared at Phlip with so much hate and angst. "If not for you, my family might well still be in a good condition! It's all your fault, the fake report you gave the police was what ruined my company and my family!" Adam dashed forward in a effort to restrain his father. "Dad, please!" Apart from the fact that he was over-exrrtibg himself and firing his muscles to move, he was also conjuring up the emotions of the past which could be fatal. "Can you please calm down. You just came awake, you can't be moving so much!" Adam explained his father, buy the man still kept sending death glares to Philip. "It was all a misunderstanding, Felix. I didn't know that report could ruin your company's image so much." "Was that why you lied against me?" Felix hissed hotly. "You and the investigators knew that there was no signs of hard drugs in my company facilities, but you went ahead and wrote a report on
At the office the following day, Adam hadn't as much as stepped out of the lift when he heard a commotion at the entrance of the board room. Ernestine, Thomas and Richard were at the door, yelling at someone to come open it. "What is going on here?" Adam walked briskly to approach them. "Ah, thank God you're here, Carson. Can you speak to Roberto and ask him to open the door at once?" Adam peeked in and see Roberto sitting at the head of the table, stating at something on his phone. "We intended to use this place for our meeting, and we were already seated, but this brat suddenly barged in and ordered the guards to send us out!" Ernestine was fuming red. "Can you imagine the guts of that bastard? When did he become the President that he's already throwing his weight around?" Thomas was also totally pissed. "Please calm down, let me try to talk some sense into his brains." Adam tried to coax them. He couldn't blame them for being so upset though. Roberto was already crossin
"So you're saying I can't see my friend right now to clarify the issues between us?" Philip asked, his voice grave. "I get how you feel, uncomfortable cause of the kind of hatred your friend is showing towards you due to a misunderstanding, but please we have to be cautious." Adam explained seriously. "My father just woke up from coma and we cannot afford to be taking too much risks right now!" Adam didn't care if he came off as harsh. He really had to make sure it sank into this man's head. He knew how stubborn and impulsive Philip could be, same with his father Felix. "Alright. I've heard you. I'll try to avoid the confrontation for now." Philip replied and disconnected the call. "Why was he unable to reach you?" Richard asked as Adam returned the phone. "Don't tell me you directed his calls to voicemail?" Adam looked away in guilt, "what could I have done? I need to avoid speaking to him until my father is better." Richard nodded, parting his shoulders. "Dinner or later, th
After ascertaining the same set of report from Jude as well, Adam also worked him some money after getting off the call. "I heard she'll be at the Mall tomorrow morning, I'll be visiting to warn her to back off." He said so calmly that Cleo paused her hands on the new bandage she was wrapping around Holton's head. "And what has your threats accomplished during the past few months?" She placed her hands on her waist, glaring at him. "Nothing! Absolutely nothing!" "I don't intend to argue with you. Just wait and watch what will happen." Adam said and spun around. "I'll also visit those useless people, but not with you." Cleo muttered, returning back to the bandage. Adam got into his room and placed a call to Barry. "I have a huge job for you." "As long as the pay is fat as well." Barry laughed. "Money is not an issue, I just found out the 4 set of people that are meant to judge the Annual Prestigious Family Awards. Look into them and give me feedback by tomorrow morning." "A
Seraphina stared at Adam like he’d grown two heads. “What the hell is this freak doing here anyway?” She turned to ask her mother. “Too bad you don’t appreciate good business advices.” Adam shook his head in pity. “Anyway, I’m here to see the document you claimed I sign to hand over my Mall to you.” “You’re kidding, Adam.” Seraphina laughed. “Even if you saw it, what are you going to about it, we have submitted the letter to the Ministry of works and it passed through the due process. Challenging them is like challenging the Governor himself.” “Leave this deluded man, come tell me what Mr Brooklyn wanted!” Lori waved him off like a stray dog. She managed to drag Seraphina into a more private area. Adam ignored them, heading back to the main hall. The leader of the goons who had managed to get up despite his sprained his ankle. He grabbed the man by the hair. “Where did your Boss keep the safe for important documents?” The man shook his fists angrily. “Don’t touch me, you-“ he was
"You can come in." Adam said to the person at the door. Isaac picked up his napkin to wipe his lips when his hands froze. "S...Son?"Starting back at him was his very own beloved son, Felix Walters. "Father," Felix growled in disdain, his face hard as he took a few steps forward. "S...Son, you're awake?" Isaac's eyes was still wide with shock. He stumbled up in an attempt to reach out and touch his son. "After 9 months, you're finally awake!""And you have a lot of explaining to do!" Felix grabbed his hands, stepping away from his touch. He glanced around the huge hall, his face getting colder. "I can see you you've been having a good time while I lay unconscious.""Son, you can't say that." Isaac muttered, pain in his voice. "Do you have an idea how I torture myself to sleep every night? My nightmare are plagued by regrets and agony. If I didn't throw you out when you came running back for my help, you wouldn't be in that condition, your wife would still be alive and your childr
Isaac’s eyes darkened tremendously as he gazed into his son’s fierce eyes. “A…Are you threatening me right now?”“Take it however you like, old man. Answer my question already, I don’t have all day!” Felix smiled bitterly. As he said this, he retrieved his phone and almost immediately, a recording was playing.Isaac’s heart palpitated as he heard himself from 15 years ago, gearing Williams on when he started turning into a cruel kid.He swallowed hard, his fearful gaze zeroed in on the man in front of him. “Y…You can’t betray your father like this!”“Who says I can’t?” Felix let out a mocking laughter. “Did my own father consider me when he was making bad decisions?”The old man stumbled back on trembling legs and fell on the sofa, his eyes reflecting fear and angst.“Dad, please.” Adam had to jump in at this point. “We can talk this out. We should all be on the same team, not working against each other.”“You tell that to your grandfather, is he ready to work with us and stop hiding
"No, No. That's impossible!" Felix scoffed when he heard Philip's side of the story."The police told me you got promoted after investigating and turning in the fake report about it company!""By Police, you mean inspector Charles?" Philip asked him. "That bastard was driven by envy to set me up and heap a lot of false allegations against me! He turned the while station against me that had to flee for my safety!""Believe me, Felix. While you were out fighting for your company, I was actually fighting for my life!"Felix stared at his old friend for a while before taking in a deep breath and looking away. "This Charles, where is he right now?"Philip clenched his fists at the thought of his nemesis. "Serving as the deputy inspector and still corrupting the Police force with his evils! He was one of the people that forged the document presented at Walters Corporations recently!""What?" Isaac suddenly butted in. "A member of the police aided in forgery? What the heck has the police do

Adam sat still for a while, allowing the words to sink in. Williams was an illegitimate son! Now, all the crimes he committed made more sense. He had been wondering how a son could put his own father through such emotional blackmail, exposing him to ridicule and humiliation. Now, everything was clear. Isaac was never his father, therefore there was no obligation to show him kind feelings. And now, his father, the legitimate son was the one bearing the brunt of all the drama. A muscle ticked Adam’s jaw as he lifted his eyes to his father’s face. His lashes were fluttering! Adam jumped up, rushing to the ECG machine to monitor his vitals. Everything was normal. Adam’s heart raced with excitement. Seems his father was about to wake up. Philip and Richard were still speaking to each other, oblivious to what was happening. “I always knew that Williams of a man would be bad blood. It won’t be far-fetched if he is the person behind all of this. He always hated Felix and showed it when
