The greatest son: Zane strikes back Something stupid
After giving Tex a few minutes to compose himself, Zane said, “Let me be the one to worry about my safety. Now, tell us what the documents are.“ Even though Zane sounded calm, Tex could see from his expression that he was getting impatient, so he sat up straight and focused solely on Zane’s eyes.“There's this massive gap between wealthy businessmen and thugs. Their status makes society's views towards them very different. But most business people are just as corrupt as a thug. They need these guys to do their dirty works so that they can keep up the image of respectable businessmen and women. And that's where the middleman comes in...” Tex said with a pause, feeling slightly hesitant because he knew that once the rest of his words got out, there was no going back.“A middleman?” Zane asked.“Yes. Mr. Wu is a middleman. You see, the thugs' reputations are too filthy for the businessman to risk being seen with them, or some of them are concern about doing one-on-one negotiations with

When the name “My guy” flashed on Belinda's screen, she quickly sat up in bed, smiling like an idiot and rubbing the sleep out of her eyes.“Buenos dias Hermosa.” Yoko smoothly said, causing her to grin even harder.“Ooho, someone Spanish is getting all snarky today,” Belinda laughed, curling her hair around her finger, and then said almost in a whisper, “I miss you.”“Zane and I are on our way back.” “Really!!”Not expecting her voice to be so squeaky, Belinda coughed into her fist to try and cover it, but Yoko’s laugh made her feel okay to be this excited about him because he, too, sounded just as excited to be with her.Pouting as though he was in the room with her, Belinda said, “Don’t laugh... It's your fault for not taking me along with you guys. Now, I am stuck at home, doing nothing. Dad banned me from going to the club-”“What did you do now?” Yoko asked with a faint laugh.“I may or may not have broken someone's nose.”“Bel, come on!” The way he called her name with such a

Clutching onto her bag handle, Belinda smiled widely when butler Manson stood at the door and asked, “You are?”“Belinda,” She answered brightly. “Oh, yes. Mr. Alfred and Emma are awaiting you in the living room.”“Mr. Alfred?” “Yes, come this way.” A sense of dread filled Belinda as she followed the butler down a long hallway, and when they reached the end of the corridor, the butler knocked on the large double doors and opened them, bowing respectfully before ushering her in.“Belinda!” Emma exclaimed in happiness as she stood up from the couch. It was relieving to see her excited to see her, and when she reached her, there was a bit of awkward tension as Emma went in for a hug. She didn't know why she did, but when Belinda hugged her back, she was glad that the weird feeling had died down.“Hey, Emma,” Belinda whispered as they pulled apart.“So, you are Yoko’s girlfriend.” Mr. Alfred said, watching the two from the black couch.Shocked by his statement, Belinda looked at Emma

The bunch of paperwork on Mr. Taylor's desk just kept piling up, and they were all from clients that had years of relationship with the company, suddenly pulling out of Vex co.When the door to his office opened, he thought it was his secretary and didn't look up as he lashed out, “Two weeks of her taking over that damn Blueprint co., and they are dropping like dead flies with no backbones!”“Flies do not have bones, though.” Jason's voice came from the door, and Mr. Taylor almost had a heart attack, clutching his jaws so tightly that his teeth hurt.The look he gave Jason when he raised his gaze made him fake a shiver as he glared at Mr. Taylor, saying, “Hoohoo, I got chills.”Then he dragged a chair out and sat down, looking the old man dead in his eyes, and said, “Ahh, how the tables have turned beautifully.”“Get out.” Mr. Taylor spat at him.“I have a business proposal for you.” “I want nothing!!... Nothing to do with you or your business proposal. Now, get out and stay out.” I

The six men rushed toward Zane, and when one swung a punch at him, he blocked it and countered with another hit of his own. The man backed up after a moment, rubbing his jaw, and then charged forward again, trying to tackle Zane. Grabbing his fist, Zane twisted until he heard a satisfying crack, and he smiled when the guard crumpled to the floor and kicked him in his head. Turning to face the second man, Zane punched his chest so that the air escaped him in an audible “Puff!” Before punching him square in the nose, breaking it instantly, with another punch in his left thigh, the man collapsed in pain. The third man came charging at him with fury in his eyes and swinging his right fist, but Zane blocked it quickly. Then he used his elbow to knock him back with an uppercut to the chin. And before the other could regain his balance, Zane drove his knee into the man’s stomach as his hands moved behind his back to wrap around his neck, lifting him off the ground and slamming him onto

A knock on their bedroom door made Logan side-eyed his wife and raised an eyebrow questioningly. “Who could it be so early this morning?” Elizabeth mumbled as she rose from her spot in the bed and walked over to answer it. “Hello?” she called out cautiously, opening the door slightly to see her daughter standing there with the most suspicious expression she had ever seen on a human being’s face. “Ava, what have you done this time?” Elizabeth cried, opening the door wider and reaching for her daughter's shoulder to pull her into their room. “We all know the company is sinking, it's flopping ! The stock has crashed and clients are pulling back like they never wanted anything to do with us.” Ava dramatically said. “Now, what are you babbling about? Your grandfather may denounce you if he hears of this.” Logan scolded his daughter sternly. “We saw what happened to NewEra. Once Mr. Alfred criticized them publicly, NewEra co. became more of a liability to the Briggs and they w

When Emma walked into the “Blueprint Tech” building with Belinda and her security detail, she kept smiling slightly at the employees and nodding gently at their greetings. But the moment she and Belinda got into the elevator, her frown returned.“He’s doing something dangerous again,” Emma mumbled, resting her head on the cold metal wall as the elevator door closed behind her guards. “I hate when he does this. I hate it so much.”Looking remorseful at Emma, Belinda hesitated for a second and then said, “I am sorry that you overheard what Yoko and I discussed. It wasn't my intention to-”“You wouldn't have told me if I didn't overhear it?” Emma asked with sadness laced in her tone, raising an eyebrow as she turned to face Belinda. “Belinda, I don't get to see him face-to-face anymore. If no one tells me anything, I know nothing. Absolutely nothing. Do you know how suffocating that is? To be able to learn little things about your man only through a few text messages and calls?" Sniffi
The greatest son: Zane strikes back The Taylor legacy
Not caring to dry her face, Emma looked at her grandfather and then her grandma before saying, “Stand up, please.”The two slowly did so, and Emma kept her gaze fixed on her grandfather, who lowered his tearstained face, and then he watched her bow at their feet, crying, “Mother, I am sorry.”Seeing her doing so was like a stab in his heart, and the thought made him sob even harder as he tried to compose himself. The lobby was cold with silence, everyone looking at each other, not saying a word, except for the quiet sounds of sniffling. After what felt like an eternity but had been only mere seconds, Emma stood back up and faced them, now without tears, but with a firm jaw and dull look in her eyes as she said, “I want nothing to do with the Taylor family, but that still doesn't mean I have forgotten my place. You are my grandparents, and that is a fact I have to live with till my dying breath. So, out of respect for my mother, I kindly ask you two never to do that again.”After th
