The man was older and very plain-looking, with slightly thick eyebrows. Dressed in old jeans that sat snug on his hips and an old shirt, he looked like a police man that wasn’t on duty. Roy was sitting very close to them but shielded by potted plants so they couldn’t see him. he liked it, choosing to remain hidden. Why was Liam with this older man? Leaning over to get a sharper hearing of their words, Roy brought up a magazine he saw on the table and covered his face. “Are you telling me Charlie Jordan and Anne Jordan didn’t just abandon their child at the orphanage?” he heard Liam’s voice whisper harshly to the man. “I already told you that those aren’t your brother’s parents’ real names.” the man replied, snapping his fingers to call the attention of a server, “Black coffee please.” Roy felt like his head was swimming. Liam was investigating his parents…without telling him? No wonder he was always on his phone and secretive for the past few months. The thought made his stomach
The thought made him lightheaded. It was already dark outside, and he realized that he’d spent hours in the coffee after Liam had gone to mull over the things he’d heard. He needed to go home. He was sure his guards would be searching hell and heaven for him. Dialing their numbers, he rattled off his location to them after assuring them that he was fine and walked out to wait for them. After standing outside the coffee shop for a while, he looked behind his shoulder and felt that there was someone following him. he couldn’t tell if it was an illusion, or it was real or maybe he was just being paranoid. He frowned and walked over to the well-lit parking lot to wait for the bodyguards to bring the car. Suddenly a Ford swung into the parking lot, slowing to a stop beside him and Angelo stepped down from it. The hair at the back of his neck prickled with tension. What was he doing here and why was he standing so close to him? “Hey…Angelo,” he said nervously to quell the tension. Th
Having arrived from the meeting with Cain hours ago, Bryan sat crossed leg in his office, plotting out his next actions when he got a call.It was from the bodyguards he’d gotten for Roy.“Hello Sir,” the bodyguard’s voice sounded shaky and alarm bells rang in Bryan’s psyche. “We can’t seem to find Mr. Jordan.”“What do you mean?” he thundered, leaping off his chair, “I hired to protect him at all times.”“Yes sir, we have no excuse other than he left the office very early, and later he called us to come to pick him up at a coffee shop….” They trailed off when Bryan ended the call.He tried Roy’s number just for its sake, already aware that the phone would be dead.There was no way to track his location since his phone wasn’t on.Dread slithered down his spine as a single thought came to his head. Only one person could abduct Roy so shortly.His father.He quickly called his assistant to prepare the private Jet. “We’re heading to Ortiz.”Back at the gambling house.Instantly Roy got a
After Roy left, Cain tore off the sheet that he’d been lying on and threw it on the ground like trash, then lay down on himself, curled up like this, and fell asleep. When Roy walked downstairs, he reached for his phone, but unfortunately, the battery was dead. He felt dead as he hailed a taxi to take him to the coffee shop. He knew by now that Bryan would be notified that he was missing. He sighed, cursing Angelo in his heart, and then got into the taxi. The driver was a female driver, who passed him a pack of napkins, "Wipe off your tears." He knew in Cain’s eyes he was just a toy. Roy thanked her, took it, and rubbed it against his cheeks. The taxi stopped at the entrance of the coffee, and when he saw the car the bodyguards always drove out at a glance, his shoulders sagged in relief. After paying for the taxi, he opened the door and walked down, heading towards the guards. Anna, the female guard hurried towards him once she saw him, “SIR! Mr. Anderson was dead worried abo
Now that Cain was really after him and had the guts to kidnap Roy, Bryan knew he had to act fast.He knew exactly what to do to Cain to show him his place.The corners of his lips curled up. Originally, he didn’t want to stoop as low as to get involved with small human criminal gangs or do something like this, but Cain Dodge forced his hands.If he doesn’t resolve this soon as possible then he’s afraid that Roy might be taken from him.He kissed Roy softly on the lips and got up, the location and information about Cain on his phone.Since Cain was a CEO and a gangster, he wasn’t poor but his wealth wasn’t worth mentioning at all in the capital.The capital is the economic center of the country and there were as many rich people as ants to a lump of sugar but those who stood at the top like Bryan Anderson were very rare. From the information Elliot sent to him, asides from the drug business, Ca
“You know what I do to rats?” the man slammed his fist into the punching bag before him, a sinister smile on his lips.He waited a few moments for a response and there wasn’t any, he turned around and sliced the blade in his hands through the side of the face of the man bound to a chair.A loud scream rends the air and he dug his blade deeper, “When I ask questions, you reply!”“Yes Master Cain!” the man bound to the chair bawled, sticky liquid dripping from his nostrils as it colluded with the blood running down his face.“I asked, do you know what I do to rats?” Cain asked again, withdrawing his blade from the man’s face.“You teach them a lesson Master!” tears seeped from his eyes as he continued to cry.“What type of lesson?” chuckling darkly, he ran a finger over the stubble lining his jawline.“Don’t let me say it, Master…Fuck!” the bleeding man screamed as Cain dug the blade into his shoulders. “They give you their tool of snitching.” His voice shook as he spoke.“Good boy.” Ca
A throbbing pain formed in the man’s heart, hatred spreading quickly in his system as he hugged Cain tightly.“Why don’t you kill him then? Show him the stuff you’re made of?” the man whispered.“You know I don’t attack blindly.” Cain whispered back, “I don’t know what Bryan Anderson is capable of nor do I know how Anderson Inc. was established. To teach him a lesson, it has to be done in a way that’s not my style or something that someone like me wouldn’t do.”“Don’t worry, I will avenge you and save your reputation! Although Anderson Inc. is powerful, I believe its CEO is hiding behind the name. I will find a chance to kill Bryan Anderson! Just wait for my good news.”Still holding each other, Cain curled his lips slowly in his arms. Hillary was really good to him, but unfortunately, his sweetness is all he had to offer. He was just a small-scale businessman with no education to speak of. Unless he was stupid, Cain cannot stoop as low to be with such a man even if the ashes of his s
Bryan had stood outside the bathroom door for quite some time, yelling several times, but Roy didn’t respond.And since the bathroom door was unlocked, he opened it by himself and walked in.The bed was empty and looked unruffled so he was troubled that Roy had probably fallen asleep in the bathtub so he pushed the bathroom door open instantly.As soon as he opened it, he was met with such a beautiful scene.Roy was bent at the waist at the time, and the position of his hands was somewhat misleading.Bryan’s expression turned dark, “Do you want it that bad?”When he asked this, his voice was strung tightly, while his teeth were gritted.Roy’s mind grew blank and when Bryan asked the question, he stared blankly at the hand in the bathtub and it was placed directly on his hardening member. Bryan didn’t think he was….He quickly yanked his hand away, his face flushed red.This has to be the most embarrassing moment of his life.“Bryan…listen to me…it isn’t what you are thinking…”He sudd
