2024-10-29 19:42:56Then Johnathan started to articulate what happened over 2 decades ago.
Johnathan, along with Adam, the two sons of James Parker, were both groomed into taking over the Parker family's business one day. The two brothers were inseparable. Each one had their strong suits as well as their weaknesses. Johnathan had an average business mind, but he valued people and was good at establishing relationships with them. Adam wasn't good at building relationships with those around him, but he had an excellent brain on his shoulders. The added bonus was that Adam's affinity for Reiteki were far better than Johnathan's. Everything seemed to point that Adam would be the successor of James.
Jonathan wasn't jealous or anything. Rather he was glad that he had such a great brother, but James was still insistent that Johnathan should be his successor. That didn't sit well with Adam at all, so Johnathan took the decision upon himself to withdraw from the race for the successor of J

With a heavy heart, Johnathan followed Elizabeth and found her in tears sitting in the detention room. However, the moment she saw him, she felt relieved immediately. When Johnathan opened the burglary door, she ran towards him. Just as she was about to hug him, Johnathan pushed her away. He told her not to get too close to him. Elizabeth was heartbroken. She gave her life to the man, and he treated her like she was a stranger to him. "I'm so sorry Liz, but we cannot be together anymore. We're worlds apart and it just wouldn't work out," Johnathan said. Each word he uttered, broke his heart into pieces. He expected Elizabeth to throw a tantrum, but she was remarkably calm. "Johnathan there's something I kept from you for a while. Some time ago, I had a miscarriage and I never had the strength to tell you. Please forgive me," she said. The news shattered Johnathan's mind. He had prepared to let Elizabeth go and afterwards he would've followed her. Johnathan was prepar

Joshua couldn't believe his eyes and ears. Was Elaine going out of her mind? How could she claim Warren was her big brother? Maybe she mistook him for Julian. But even that didn't make sense. They look nothing alike. "Get away from that scum, Elaine! That's not Julian and he's not your brother," Joshua warned his sister. Elaine realized that she was not supposed to reveal Warren's identity. Even Johnathan was sweating bullets when he saw what his daughter did. He didn't know Warren and Elaine were so close. "I'm so sorry, Sir. I must have mistaken you for someone else," she said as she let go of Warren. That's when she noticed just how forward she was. She even went as far as hugging her brother. What must he be thinking of her? "Don't worry, Elaine. There's nothing wrong with that. I just came to pay a visit to Mr Parker here." Warren responded. Elaine felt uneasy when she saw the worried look on her father's face. She wanted to ask what's wrong,

Elaine brought Julian home so that he could clean himself up. When he saw his house, Julian started crying all over again. He had a very close encounter with death today. Not only did he lose his 10 bodyguards, his life was almost ended. He felt very indebted to Elaine, since she managed to convince Warren to spare him. Or so he thought. When Johnathan saw Julian returning, he immediately ran out and hugged his son. Johnathan was so worried that Warren would ruthlessly murder Julian, given what Johnathan told him. But luckily Warren was compassionate enough to spare his son's life. Joshua, who was standing on the porch, couldn't understand what the fuss was all about. He saw Julian earlier in the morning and now he returned. The way his father and brother were going on, you would swear he rose from the dead. Elaine left the two of them on their own and returned to her room. Just as she was about to lie down, she received a text message from Warren.

Warren wasn't sure at first if he should go down the hall. What if he found something that should've been kept locked away? There's a reason why the door was locked, so what if he unleash something that should be kept hidden at all costs? These questions were running through Warren's mind, but eventually he found himself slowly walking down the dark passageway. With each step he took, Warren could feel an intense pressure starting to suffocate him. The last time Warren had a similar feeling, was when he went to the Parker mansion and he felt James Parker's presence in the house. What did it mean? Before long, Warren found himself in front of a huge door that seemed to be sealed by a Reiteki technique. Warren analyzed the seal and after 1 hour, he managed to decipher it. Warren used his own technique to overwrite and unlock the door. As soon as the door opened, he immediately regretted the decision. Warren saw a mythical creature appear in front of him. It was a huge

Warren looked at the kirin turn to dust right in front of him. He couldn't believe what he went through that day. He stumbled upon the chamber of a legendary beast, learned its language and how it could talk and he even gained the strength from the beast. Warren repeatedly pinched himself to make sure that he wasn't dreaming.Slowly he made his way back. The moment he stepped outside the door of the room where he fought the kirin, the room immediately vanished. There was a wall where the door was. It seemed like the room vanished into thin air.Warren shook his head. He already saw too much for the day. There was nothing that could surprise him anymore. Then Warren arrived in the basement of the White family again. He looked around and saw the books from earlier which he couldn't understand. The name of the first book, immediately grabbed his attention. The book was named 'The Legendary King Cole!'That was the name the kirin mentioned earlier. Warre

Warren told Olivia about how his uncle and aunt raised him after his mother's death. The two of them were basically the only parents Warren knew. Although they weren't very rich, they still worked their hardest to put Warren through school and gave him a good education so that Warren may take care of himself. Uncle Geoffrey used to tease Warren and say that the moment Warren was done with his studies and found a job for himself, he should move back home to Wellington and take the house. They wouldn't be there since they would be at their little beach house, where Warren wouldn't be welcome. The story sounded so ridiculous that it always made Warren laugh. But that was the reason that kept Warren going. The genuine smile he saw on his uncle's face when he talked about retiring next to the Oranje Sea, was the only thing that pushed Warren to succeed. He wanted to pay them back for taking care of him for all the years they offered up to him. Olivia l

Olivia was surprised not to see the cab coming to pick them up, anywhere. Did Warren expect them to walk all the way to town? It was ridiculously far, even Warren wouldn't be that stupid to think of doing that."I want us to go down to the beach. I have a little surprise there," Warren said excitedly. The mystery that surrounded him, was something that Olivia found rather charming. She agreed and the two of them made their way down to the beach. As soon as they arrived, Olivia was once again at a loss for words.In front if them was a beautiful yacht. What Olivia had in mind was that Warren maybe prepared a picnic of sorts, but a yacht ride was the last thing she expected. Wasn't Warren doing too much?"Do you mind if we joined the captain for a cruise," Warren asked as he stretched out his hand to her. Olivia was hesitant to reach out. She couldn't possibly set foot on the yacht. But when she saw Warren's puppy dog eyes, she couldn't dare to tell him no.

Then they heard sounds approaching them from all directions. Warren couldn't even pinpoint how many there was. He pulled Olivia closer and he could feel her breath racing against his neck. Just then, at least 10 wolves jumped out of the bushes from all directions. Warren wasn't scared for himself, but he was worried about Olivia. Olivia involuntarily let out a scream. She knew that it was over for them. There was no way that Warren could defend the two of them from the wolves. They were outnumbered and since wolves are so fast, running wasn't an option either. "Close your eyes for a bit. I'll be right back," Warren said. Olivia's trembling came to a halt when she heard Warren uttering those words. Just as she closed her eyes, she instantly heard the cries of the wolves around her. Each one only let out one howl and then it was quiet. It didn't even take a minute when she felt a finger tapping her on the shoulder. She slowly opened her eyes and saw

Three days later, Warren was discharged from the hospital. He had nowhere to go and since he lost basically everything he owned, he made his way to the Parker mansion that was located on the outskirts of Richmond. He said he didn't want anything to do with that family anymore, but that was the only safe haven he could find in that instance.Since regaining his memories of what transpired back in Flemond, Warren felt that he had no reason to keep on living. He lost the only reason, in Olivia, to keep on living, and that after he promised not to let her go. He was horrible at keeping promises and that was what killed Warren.As soon as he arrived in front of the villa, Bruce, the butler, already anticipated his arrival. Warren recalled that he asked him to keep an eye over the affairs of Johnathan Parker since he was no longer around, but he didn't expect that Bruce would be so devoted in his tasks."Master Cole. I have awaited your return. Welco

Mark and his two bodyguards, who were quite a distance away, heared his cry all too clearly. When they turned to look in the direction from which they escaped, they could see smoke rising into the air. Although they were almost five kilometers away, they could clearly see the blue fire accompanying the smoke."What is that?" he asked hid bodyguards. The female bodyguard looked at him and responded: "That is the end!"She then sat on a log that nearby. Mark urged his male bodyguard to hurry up so that the two of them could get away. The two of them didn't hesitate and ran as quickly as their legs could carry them.The female bodyguard admired the scene that she saw. That was like something out of a fairytale. Though it was dark all around her, the blue fire contrasted the dark sky in a majestic way."So this is how it ends. I guess there is no escaping your destiny. You're truly the reincarnation of King Cole," she said.

Yvonne had to stand by and hear how her husband get ridiculed like that. She thought she married a stand-up guy, someone who didn't only look good and were rich, but also a man with morals. He wasn't Warren, but he was the next big thing in line.Mark, on the other hand, was boiling with rage. He secretly dialed a number on his phone and within a few minutes his two most loyal subordinates appeared. It was the woman who Warren and Olivia met and another man. Each one of them were cultivators of an extraordinary rank."So you decided to call for backup? I guess you must really be an embarrassment of a man if you can't even fight your own battles. You are not only weak, but you can only assert your dominance on helpless women. I really pity you," Warren said. Mark didn't care anymore. He wanted all of them dead, and that's what he ordered his henchmen to do. Before they could move an inch, Warren appeared behind the man, sword in his hand and the blade on the

"I watched them go out in flames. I heard their screams for help. My father's body was on fire, but he only worried about one thing. He begged Mark to let me go. I couldn't understand why he would want that while he was literally in the depths of hell," Olivia explained. The more Warren heard, the more his anger was fueled. What on earth gave Mark the right to do something to Olivia's family like that? What has he ever done to him? "You know, as they were busy losing their lives in the most horrid way possible, Mark just stood there and laughed. How could someone be so cruel as to do something like that?" "He finally focused his attention on me and said that this was his retribution. He said that he was looking for me for a while. I couldn't understand the meaning in his words, but later he explained everything to me. He said that he fell in love with a woman. She was the best thing to ever happen to him and that he never loved anyone more than that." "The wo

Warren didn't waste any time to linger around. He had to go after Olivia. She was beyond pissed at him. He knew that he messed up big time. She seemed to be spooked by something else before she got to find out about his fling with Jamie. It's not as if he was cheating. Warren felt that he was clearly within his rights to move on, since Olivia was presumed dead by that point."Are you really going to leave now, Warren?" Jamie asked. She looked as if she was holding on to the final thread of hope. She knew that if Warren decided to leave, that thread would snap and it would sent her spiraling downwards, out of control."I'm sorry you had to find out this way, Jamie. It was never my intention to hurt you. It's just that, I can't afford to lose Olivia. I lost her to death once, and now that I have her back, I can't do it again," Warren explained. Jamie didn't understand what Warren was talking about. How could he have lost her to death if she was clearly

"Hey Olivia. What's wrong?" Warren asked worried. Olivia still stood there as if she was frozen. She couldn't move a muscle."I've had enough of this debacle. Miss Francis, if you don't have anything to say to me, I best start going," Mark said. He was about to leave when Jamie arrived. She was so happy to see Warren and her boss finally met each other."Warren, I'm so glad you can make it here today. Now you can finally meet my boss," she said. Warren looked at Mark from head to toe. Was this the man that he was supposed to meet? Who would've known the world was such a small place."Why would I want to meet this idiot?" Mark asked.Warren didn't pay any mind to either of them. He was just surprised that Mark turned out to be thee Mr Clifford. Warren wasn't so sure about going into business with them anymore."Olivia, let me get you home." Warren offered. She nodded. Warren pulled her by the hand and brought her to his car. Yvonne

"Do you have any idea where I can get ahold of this boss of yours? It has been too long now. I think it's finally time we meet," Warren said.Jamie nodded. She thought that the two of them would never get to meet since they kept postponing it. It wasn't a good thing especially since they were entering in a deal that would put their company on the map and for that to happen, they needed the assistance of such a major company as Galaxy Tech Lane."I will arrange that he comes to the office today or tomorrow. Please make sure that you are present for that. I will come along since I am was partially the reason why we sealed the deal," Jamie teased him as she winked playfully. Warren couldn't disagree with that since that was really the case. If she wasn't such a beautiful secretary, it would've taken a lot more to change Warren's mind to get involved with such a small company."After that, the two of us can maybe go for a drink if you like," Jamie flirted.

Christina was steadfast in her mission not to let Warren know what really happened. Warren was adamant, but she didn't give anything up. It took Olivia to finally convince him to let it go. Warren and Olivia left Christina so that she could rest further. He was still unsatisfied with how things ended, but he decided to let it go for the moment. He didn't want to add anymore to her stress.The two of them drove in silence back home. Once he made it back, he summoned Neo to meet him in his study. He told Neo the jest of things so that he roughly had an idea of what was going on."So your mission is to find out who the culprit behind all of this is. I have been through enough already. I can't let anything happen to Christina. She isn't out of danger yet. And as long as there are people gunning for her life, I can't rest in peace. Just make sure Olivia doesn't find out about any of this," Warren said. Neo nodded. This was the first big task Warren gave to him and he knew t

"How did it go?" Olivia asked once Warren returned home. She was always bad with hiding her facial expressions, so the worries was written all over her face."I gave them my number and address so that they may contact me in case there are any developments. For now, let's just hope she makes it," Warren said. Neither one of them could get something into their stomach that night. They were sick with worry.The phone, that Warren has been staring at for most of the day, suddenly started to ring. He looked at the caller ID and realized that it was an unknown number, but it was from a landline. Warren didn't waste any time and answered immediately."Mr Cole. You left your number with us earlier in case something happened. There is good news, the young missus just woke up and she's alright. I know it's too soon to say, but she hasn't suffered any long term damage." the doctor explained. The sigh of relief Warren let out, was audible through the phone
