The greatest son: Zane strikes back What’s in the briefcase
When the doorbell rang, Zane was already at the door, knowing who it was and when he opened it, Mr. Alfred gave him a small smile.But Zane didn't return it because he was more concerned about the dark brown hair, nerdy-looking guy who was standing behind Mr. Alfred with a briefcase in his hand.“You didn't tell me you were bringing a guest. Emma and I only made breakfast for three.” Zane mumbled as the old man walked into the apartment followed by the guy, leaving the security detail outside.After Mr. Alfred had taken out his cap and coat, putting it on the rack, he then looked at Zane and said, “If I would have told you, then it would have ruined the surprise.”Then he looked at the young man beside him and said, “This is Yoko. He's good with computers and he is an International spy. I get all of my information from him because those on the field report directly to him. He has been with me for years, serving me in the shadows. But now, he's yours.”“Mine?” Zane asked as he raised h

Remembering his last encounter with Nathan, Zane raised a brow at Mr. Parker’s words, leaning back in his chair as he questioned, “Why would you think I am the man to talk to about this?”For a moment, Mr. Parker eyed Yoko, not knowing if he should speak in his presence, but Zane recognized his uncertainty and said, “Go on. He is with me.”“Oh, I see...” Mr. Parker said, looking directly in Zane's eyes. “I think you can help me because of all this... because within less than two months Golden Key Co. was created, and I don't think anyone has broken the record with such accomplishment in your time frame, except for Mr. Alfred, and for that, you got my interest and respect.” Mr. Parker said, looking directly into Zane's eyes.His straightforwardness made Zane chuckle and shake his head slightly, then he replied, “Okay then Mr. Parker, let's hear it.”Nodding, Mr. Parker lifted a file from beneath his arm and handed it to Zane, who took it, opening the cover and glancing briefly at the i

At sharp ten o'clock, Emily knocked on Zane’s office door, and then she stepped into the room, eyeing Yoko before approaching Zane, who immediately guessed why she was there, “Mr. Bradley is here.” “Yes, boss. He just arrived.” Emily added in her professional voice.“Great, let him come in,” Zane said, smiling.With a nod, Emily turned and left the room, shutting the door softly behind her.Turning on his phone screen, Zane stared at Emma's picture and then mumbled, “I wonder how she's doing?”His thoughts were crowded with his concern for Emma until he heard the sound of his office door open again, and immediately, Zane stood to his feet, seeing Mr. Bradley walk into his office.“Good morning, sir!” Zane greeted him as he approached the desk.“Morning, Mr. Grimes. May I sit down?” Mr. Bradley uttered humbly.Immediately, Zane gestured towards the seat across from his desk, saying “Of course. Please have a seat.”Sitting down, Mr. Bradley leaned forward on his elbows and looked str
The greatest son: Zane strikes back An ambush
After ending the call with Terry, Zane looked back at Yoko and was about to speak, when Yoko suddenly took out his phone and dialed Mr. Alfred, and it took one ring, and then the old man's voice came through, “Yoko, what is it,” “There was a hit-and-run incident at Golden key Co. against Zane and me,” Yoko said, his voice humbled with shame at the thought that he properly didn't do his job, “Zane and I are okay. He was smart to push us out of the car's way.”There was a brief silence on the line, and then Mr. Alfred's voice came through a bit annoy, “Zane saved you?”“Yes, boss.”“Did you at least get the license plate number of the car?” Hanging his head low, Yoko hesitated and then said, “No. the vehicle had no license. But Terry and the others chased the person into the T-max mall and lost him.”A sigh left Mr. Alfred's lips and then he said, “I will make some calls. Head to T-max and wait for my response.”Once Mr. Alferd had ended the call with Yoko, he pulled out his phone fro
The greatest son: Zane strikes back Make sure that he won't
Facing each other, the security with his baton and teaser, and Yoko along with Zane, the security moved for Zane since he was the one that pissed him off in the first place.But as he was about to attack, Yoko reached for his right wrist, and instantly, Zane caught on to what he was doing, and Zane went for the left hand.Before the security could figure out what they were up to, Zane and Yoko had locked his wrist in their grips, and they dragged him back as he screamed, kicking and punching his legs, trying to bend his hand and use the teaser on Zane, but his wirst was so tightly in Zane’s grip that he couldn't twist it.“You two are going to jail for assaulting me!” The guard shouted as he struggled.Finally, Zane and Yoko pinned him to the wall, and then Yoko shouted, “Who are you working for?”“I am a security guard at T-max, so I work for Mr. Landon.” The guard said, forgetting about the pain in his wrist and looking at Yoko like he was dumb.“He meant, who sent you to attack us
The greatest son: Zane strikes back This is why you invited me
The sound of the apartment door opening got Emma's attention, and immediately, she left her books on the table, walked out of the living room, and met Zane in the hallway.“Hey,” She said softly, “You're back early. How was your first day of work?”Smiling weakly at her, Zane pulled his coat off his shoulder as he said, “I got off work early to pick you up from school, so we can have lunch together, but then a reckless driver almost ran into Yoko and me-”“Oh, my... are you alright?” Emma asked worriedly, placing her hand on Zane's cheek.“Yeah. We were able to jump out of the vehicle's way.” “Thank God,” Taking Zane's coat from his hand, she held onto it as she said, “Do you want me to make something for you to eat?”The tender look of concern in her eyes Made Zane smile softly and then grabbed her by her waist, resting his chin on her shoulder, inhaling deeply, “When I saw my life flash before my eyes, you were the part of it that I knew I was going to miss the most if something
The greatest son: Zane strikes back What did Zane say to you
After Cyrus had left, Mr. Briggs turned to face Zane and then said half-heartedly, “What is it?” “Hit-and-run, seriously?” Zane mumbled, trying to see if he was being hunted by an old enemy or a new one. “Is this how low you have become?”“What are you talking about?”“I am talking about how you hired someone to run over me today, in the parking lot of Golden Key’s.” The dumbfounded look on Mr. Briggs's face was so raw that Zane could tell that he wasn't faking his confusion, and yet, he still couldn't trust his gut.“I never did anything of what you claim.” Mr. Briggs finally said. “Believe it or not, but the last thing I want is your death.”A silent laugh escaped Zane’s lips as he looked at Mr. Briggs, his veins popping on his neck as he continued to chuckle hard without a sound.“Look into my eyes, boy,” Mr. Briggs said in a tone that made Zane take him seriously for the first time in a long time.When Zane locked eyes with him, Mr. Briggs continued, “Do you think Doctor Ben is
The greatest son: Zane strikes back Please, Zane
The hall grew quiet, and Zane could feel everyone's eyes on him like he was the main course of tonight, but his mind was disturbed by what Mr. Briggs said, and his only thought was, ‘What is the truth?’“Zane, we don’t have to play this stupid game with Cyrus. I can tell that something is bothering you, so can we please just go home?” Emma pleaded in a whisper, holding onto his arm, afraid for her husband’s reputation to get ruin. “Please, Zane.”The desperation in her voice made Zane snap out of his feelings and looked into her eyes, seeing the fear and worry that filled them. Since he hated seeing her like this, the urge to comfort her became too much for Zane to handle, and he gave her a small smile, saying, “Okay... Let’s leave.”“Mr. Grimes, are you not going to say something, or did you just accept my invitation for you and your wife to drink free wine and feel important without you thinking about donating?” Cyrus taunted him again.Taking one last look at the auctioneer, Zane t
