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
"Bianca? Are you willing to help me? I need you right now." The 32-year-old man pondered something, and he needed Bianca to execute his plan.Bianca furrowed her brow, not yet understanding her ex-husband's words."What do you want me to do?"William whispered to Bianca, discussing something with her.After hearing William's plan, the woman was slightly surprised and hesitant. It involved her past. Initially, Bianca wanted to refuse her ex-husband's request. However, she thought about her past mistakes again. Regardless, she had to make amends.***That night, Bianca looked stunning in a black dress that accentuated her beautiful figure. Her face wasn't pale anymore after being carefully made up. She walked towards William, who was waiting for her outside her residence."William? How do I look?" Bianca asked about her appearance tonight. The 32-year-old man fell silent for a moment as he gazed at his ex-wife. It seemed like he was slightly captivated by Bianca, as if he was drifting i
"Bianca?" The 32-year-old man was taken aback when he saw the woman who bumped into him was his ex-wife. He took a step back slowly as they came face to face again. William wiped his tears and asked, "What are you doing here?"Meanwhile, Bianca appeared with a faint smile. Her face looked pale and uninspired at that moment."I have a doctor's appointment today. That's why I'm here," the woman coughed and covered her mouth with a tissue."Bianca? What's wrong with you?" His face turned anxious after seeing a spurt of blood coming out of her mouth when she coughed. William immediately approached his ex-wife.Bianca shook her head, "I'm fine, William." Even her voice sounded weak. It seemed like Bianca was hiding something at the moment.William then guided his ex-wife to sit for a moment, taking a deep breath. He tried to forget the painful past caused by Bianca's behaviours.Bianca looked down for a moment, then sadly gazed at her ex-husband and embraced him tightly."I'm sorry, Willia
William was desperate, there was nothing he could do to save his foster child's life. He had even sacrificed his own dignity by approaching Thomas to ask him to donate his bone marrow. But his efforts were in vain."James, just open your eyes for a little while."William hung his head in despair, deeply regretting not knowing that James was suffering from such a serious illness. The 32-year-old man wiped away his tears and walked away from James in his hospital ward. He was going to talk to the doctor about something.As he walked, he accidentally bumped into a woman with long hair."Sorry. Didn't mean to." The multitude of problems was making his mind race. He only apologized and then walked away."William?"
"I ain't gonna let you go just like that!" William twisted Thomas's hand harder, the bastard screamed in pain."Willing to donate or just die?!" The 32-year-old man asked with emphasis."Let me go!" Unable to bear the pain, Thomas struggled and managed to break free from his brother-in-law's grip. The bastard walked over to grab the pistol that was lying on the floor earlier, and shot it right at William.A bullet immediately lodged in his arm, rendering William powerless. Blood began to flow from his wound, and he began to hold his arm tightly to prevent the bleeding."Stupid, who told you to come here?" Meanwhile, the bastard looked pleased to see his helpless enemy.Damn it! The bastard had wounded him, and he couldn't move freely anymore."You son of a bitch, Thomas!" William yelled, as his enemy was about to fire a bullet at him. He quickly moved to block the gun in the bastard's hand by kicking it hard until the pistol fell again.Weak William tried to take back his own gun befo
William's insistent on meeting Thomas right now, he walked back carefully so as not to be noticed by anyone. However, Matthew didn't follow him. The middle-aged man just approached and said, "There are so many guards and other Death Hole members here, sir. I suggest I go out to divert their attention. How about that?""But, isn't it dangerous for you later?" William hesitated with his trusted companion's plan."Trust me. I'll be careful." The middle-aged man tried to convince his master. William was silent as they hid behind a wall while the guards walked back and forth near them. But in the end, William agreed with Matthew's plan.The middle-aged man immediately walked out and away from his master, carrying a jug from a shelf."Who's there?!"Not long after, the sound of a broken object was heard from outside. A sound that surprised the guards and other Death Hole members, they immediately ran out to check the situation."Good, this is my time to meet Thomas." Seeing that there were
James went into a critical after being shot in several parts of his body. Not letting that scumbag oppress him, William came with Matthew to Thomas' residence by sneaking in through the back door."Sir? Are you sure about this?" Matthew asked, looking unsure about his boss's plan. William nodded slowly, confidently, the 32-year-old man walked through every room of Thomas' large residence.Then, they hid behind the wall as other members of the Death Hole passed by."We should just go home, Sir. There are still many ways to save the young master," the middle-aged man urged his boss to go back."No! Even if it was Thomas who did it, I will still meet him!"
Haven't had a chance to answer his question, James had already passed out. He was immediately rushed to the hospital for medical treatment for his injuries."You have to hang in there, James!" With panic in his voice, William hoped for James' safety. After all, he loved his adopted son very much. Meanwhile, Hendry was somewhat skeptical of what James did for William's safety. The old man looked at the unfortunate teenager lying in a coma with a sad expression and said in his deep voice, "There, there, William. You don't have to be sad about this. He did what he had to do. Remember, he owes you his life!"For the old man, it was only right that James sacrificed himself for his father figure.William, who was crying, wiped away his tears and became angry at his enemy's actions."This is outrageous. You won't get away with this. I swear I'll come back to haunt you, Thomas!" For God's sake, the 32-year-old man had sworn to become a terrifying menace to Thomas in the future. He wouldn't let
Some bullets suddenly hit his body again. Now, those little things had lodged in several parts of the poor teenager's body. Thomas shot his own son more than once, he's truly ruthless! He fell to the ground, covered in blood. William, who was panicked, rushed to his side. "James, open your eyes!" The 32-year-old man tried to wake James up from unconsciousness. Meanwhile, after shooting his own son, Thomas fled with his capos, and some of their members were already caught by the police. They surrendered to protect their boss. Thomas, on the other hand, managed to escape the police chase who wanted to capture him. "James! Wake up, son!" His effort to wake up his son was in vain. "Dad?" With a soft voice, James called out. He was lying helpless, with blood pouring out from the gunshot wounds on his chest. His dull eyes looked at his father, and he smiled even though he was in pain. "Why did you do this, James?" William cried as he saw his injured son. He deeply regretted what had ha
After waitin' fer a long time, James finally came back home with a panicked look on his face. He walked up to the three of 'em in the dinin' room."What's up, James? Why were ya runnin'?" William walked up to him and asked. He immediately guided his son to sit next to him. James grabbed a glass of mineral water and gulped it down quickly. Then, he shook his head slowly, lookin' around the mansion he lived in."Dad? Did someone bother ya?" James asked right away, confusin' William. The 32-year-old man squinted his eyes, "What do ya mean, James?"Once again, the teenager regulated his breath first."Answer my question, Dad!" He yelled, makin' the old man who was previously enjoyin' his piece of wagyu steak angry. Hearin' it, Hendry stood up from his seat and said, "Watch your attitude! You rude kid!" He didn't wanna lose to James, Hendry shouted while bangin' the dining table until the objects on it shook.James fell silent, but William stopped him right away. "Enough, Dad! Don't say tha
