James has been warmly welcomed by his father and the members within their group."James, I'm making you the underboss in this group. Your Daddy trusts you a lot, son, so don't disappoint me!" Thomas emphasized his words in front of many people regarding James' current identity.James turned his face and seemed to not mind it at all. Instead, he nodded his head as if accepting what Mr. Thomas said to him. "It's an honor for me, Dad, to gain your trust." James looked directly at Thomas, appearing very serious about his current life."I don't really know what James went through before, but because of the problems he faced, this young man came to me. Honestly, I don't feel burdened; I actually need him in the Death Hole members that I created." Thomas seemed to get what the man wanted, which was James' presence in his place now. "Once he decided to join my realm, I will never let him go again, Williams... Your story ends here!" Thomas' inner thoughts spoke again. He seemed to suspect some
The party was held so lively even though there were only a few people. William was so happy with his son's return, he loved James more than himself. "James, drink this." The 32-year-old man poured soda for his son. He was still a teenager, not allowed to drink like the others with their alcohol and wine. "Thank you, Dad." The teenager looked awkward even though he looked at his father sharply. He had to carry out his plan, he was ambitious again after Thomas brainwashed his own son. "Dad, there's something I want to say." "What is it?" William was so curious. Occasionally he raised his glass to toast with others. But James wanted to say something face-to-face."Can we talk in the room? There's something important I want to tell you, Dad." The small party was so lively, William looked at his father, Matthew and Sandy in turn. He took a deep breath, agreeing with James' request. William stood up from his chair, and Matthew asked, "Where are you going, sir?" "James wants to talk abo
"It seems like they're no longer chasing me." Gasping for breath, James stopped walking. He looked around to check if the Death Hole members were no longer chasing him.The rain was pouring heavily, and the teenager needed to find shelter soon. James reached into his pants pocket and found $50. He saw a shop on the side of the road and stopped there. He ordered a bottle of Vodka to warm up his body.His hand was hurting; he must have sprained it when he fell from the height while escaping from William's house. The teenager kept thinking about his foster father's current situation."I'm sorry, Dad." He felt so regretful that he started blaming himself. James was frustrated, but not long after, a middle-aged man approached him, from head to toe."Oh my God!" James was surprised to see Matthew in front of him."Why are you here?" He asked nervously and quickly swallowed his saliva. The teenager was so scared of him that he immediately knelt in front of him."I beg you, don't jail me!" He
"Good that you realize it." Hendry snapped, he was very angry at William's foster child.The old man immediately kicked him hard, causing James to fall. Matthew was shocked, and he immediately helped James up."Are you okay, James?" Matthew was not happy, no matter what his boss did, it was too much. Didn't he realize that he had just mistreated the kids?"Sir, I know James is wrong. But this is beyond his control." The middle-aged man tried to protect the teenager from his boss's anger. He had already taken countless beatings from Hendry when he tried to hit William's foster child.Not wanting to escalate the situation, James decided to leave. He ran out, and Matthew shouted and ran after him. But it was all in vain. James couldn't be caught, especially since Hendry tried to stop him.Rain is starting to ease up, but the cold air still envelops the city of Melbourne. James walks alone in the drizzle. His clothes are soaked, the night wind blowing fiercely and making him shiver. He ke
"Isn't this Mr. James' property?" He realized that the sneakers he found belonged to James. He found one sneaker on the street. Matthew became anxious, he immediately ran to the hospital. The young man had to know about this. He walked quickly while carrying the sneakers.Meanwhile, James is now in a very dark room. His eyes are covered with a black cloth, and his hands and feet are tied up."Where am I?! Let me go!"Although he couldn't see, the teenager could hear someone's footsteps approaching him."You finally came back, James." His deep voice was enough for James to recognize him. He removed the black cloth that covered James' eyes and turned on a dim light."Why did you leave, James?" He had a sad face, but it disappeared quickly. Thomas was just pretending."You son of a bitch!" James spat in his face, he was already sick of his own father. How could a father kidnap his own son like this? Thomas was like a devil who had no mercy at all.Thomas wiped the spit off his face from
"What's up, Mr. Matt? Why do you look panicked?" Matthew approached William in his ward, his face showing panic and pale. The middle-aged man took a moment to catch his breath, then said, "I-I found this on the street." He handed over a white sneaker to his young master with trembling hands. William looked at the strange sneaker, he was familiar with the brand."Isn't this James's? It's the sneakers I gave him for his birthday."Matthew confirmed it, he was not mistaken. It was James's for sure. But, where is the teenager now?"Find James now, Mr. Matt! I'm worried about him!"Shortly after, Hendry came with his subordinates to meet his only son. The conversation between Matthew and William stopped abruptly. The middle-aged man took the white sneakers from his young master's hand and hid them behind his black jacket."I'll go now, Sir." Slowly, the middle-aged man walked out of the ward. However, Hendry stopped him."What do you have, Matt?"He got panicked when Hendry asked about som
"Y'all are evil! You bastards! The teenager screamed and continued to struggle. However, Sandy slapped him, annoyed by James' shouting that was making too much noise. The man stared at James intently, "I could have spared your foster father from getting hurt. But, under one condition.""What is it?" James glared while trying to loosen the ropes that bound him, but it seemed futile. Sandy approached him and whispered softly to the teenager. The man immediately turned around and said, "How about it? Do you agree?"Hearing the condition, James immediately refused. Sandy's proposal was completely unreasonable.Sandy turned to look at James, he hesitated. "That's your decision, James. If you don't want to, you'll be the one who loses." He glanced at Thomas next to him and laughed innocently. They shouldn't have kidnapped and held a teenager for days. Especially since James was Thomas' own biological son. But the father didn't care, he was truly diabolical.The unfortunate teenager closed h
James took a deep breath, nodded slowly, and then let go of his father's embrace. "I'm just reminding you, Dad."However, William didn't pay much attention to his son's words. James immediately led him back to his room."Rest first, Dad.""No, James. I have to finish my work at the office now." The 32-year-old man walked towards his workspace and started working from home, even though he wasn't fully recovered yet.The teenager sighed and shook his head, watching his foster father chuckle at his decision. He was about to walk out, but William called him. James walked towards his father and asked, "What's up, Dad?""You promised to always stay with your dad, right?""What about Grandpa? He really hates me now."William smiled and told him that his grandfather had accepted him back. This was all because of William's stubborn attitude, otherwise, their relationship might have been severed by now. Hearing this made James happy. He wouldn't disappoint them, he already had other plans.Jame
