2024-10-29 19:42:56Almost 5 hours later, the plane arrived in Wellington. The nostalgia that Warren felt when he saw the familiar surroundings put a smile on face. Although the circumstances in which he returned home wasn't ideal, Warren wasn't going to let it ruin Samuel and Henry's experience of Wellington.
"Ah, so this is home for you," Samuel said jokingly. Warren nodded and said, "This is it."
The three of them hailed a taxi to the Cole residence. After a 20 minute trip, they finally arrived in front of the house.
"It doesn't look like much, but feel at home," Warren said. It felt unreal to him that his uncle and aunt were gone. The reality didn't sink in completely yet. That's why he tried to remain as positive as he can.
"I can choose any room I want, right? Since the house is legally yours now?" Samuel said. He tried to make Warren smile. Warren laughed and said it's alright. After all, the four bedroom house wasn't big, but it had enough rooms for all o

"You said her boyfriend broke your ribs, but you didn't have any broken ribs when you returned to Flemond. How do you explain that?" Samuel asked. Warren didn't know what kind of explanation he could come up with. After all, saying that he was healed by a beggar who touched him, would sound preposterous, even for him. "It doesn't matter anymore. What matters is that she believed I stole someone's necklace, when both her and you are supposed to know that I will never resort to stealing. You know how poor I am, but I would never disgrace myself or my parents like that!" Warren said. Then it clicked to Samuel. He knew Warren was no thief. He would rather sleep on an empty stomach than steal some of Samuel's food. Not once in the years that they shared the same kitchen and living room, has Samuel ever lost something. If Warren was hungry, he would often ask Samuel first, but he never stole. So why would he steal a necklace. "Her bo

"Wake up, Warren. You overslept!" a voice rang in Warren's ears. When he opened his eyes, he could see his room was brightly lit by sunlight. Warren looked at the clock on the wall and it was alright past 9 o'clock. He still had to get ready so that they may leave for the graveyard at 10. Cassidy was probably already on her way. Warren jumped into the shower and got dressed quickly. Before he could eat the toasted bread and eggs which Samuel prepared, a knock on the door disturbed him. Henry rushed to open the door and was surprised to see a Cassidy standing there with another lady. "Please, come in! We're almost ready to leave. We are just waiting for Warren," Henry said. "Don't mind us. We will just wait outside. By the way this is my sister, Claire Evans," Cassidy introduced her sister. "The name is Henry Allen. Nice to meet you," Henry introduced himself. Warren rushed out of the house, still half asleep and

"We had to clean up nicely. We couldn't embarrass you like that," Samuel said smoothly."Smart answer," Cassidy said as she smiled.The three boys sat down and at that moment the food arrived. Since Claire and Cassidy arrived early, they took it upon themselves to order so long. If Warren and his two friends arrived, then the food would have been ready. They were right in thinking so."This smells delicious. Thank you for the food," Warren said. He was ravished since he rushed to get himself ready for the funeral. He never got around to eating.The meal was scrumptious and the company even better. When they were finally done, they waited for the waiter with the payment machine.Unlike the last time, Warren wasn't worried about who will pay for the meal. He knew that Claire and Cassidy will fight over the bill again, and if they couldn't afford it, he would just pay. After all, money wasn't a problem for him anymore.

Later that night, Warren was cultivating in his room again. He had to build up his strength if he could ever stand up against Charles Chamberlain. He knew his physical prowess would be enough to wipe out the whole Chamberlain clan, but he had another way to make them suffer. One that wouldn't get his hands stained with blood. After he finished cultivating, he realized he was still at C-Class Mastery and he also didn't raise a level yet. With the power of a C-Class Master Level 4, Warren could take down at least 20 bodyguards at the same time without wielding a weapon. But he felt it wasn't enough. If his plan to destroy the Chamberlains were leaked and they retaliated, he would have a hard time defending himself. Suddenly he had an epiphany. If he could use his connections as the son of Johnathan Parker, he could easily destroy the Chamberlains. Warren took out his phone and called Allison Banks. She answered immediately although it was almost 11 o'clock

Back in Flemond, Christopher called an emergency meeting with his family. He had to let everyone know what happened. When everyone was present, the dejected Christopher looked around him and saw how smug Charles was still looking. The Chamberlains knew that Charles slaughtered Warren's uncle and aunt, but it was an insignificant event in their eyes. It was not as if they haven't witnessed something like that before, so why would they be worried in the slightest. To add to that, Warren was probably the poorest student in Flemond University, so why would they even care about his retaliation. "Before we start, I want to call my son, Charles forward," Christopher said. He had a somber look on his face and everyone was worried. Charles smiled, because he thought his father wanted to credit him for being so efficient in taking care of his enemies. "Charles, is there anything you would like to tell us?" Christopher asked. He gave Charles the platfo

"I still have some money stashed away, so I think I can use it to invest in a company. That way we can gradually grow stronger again. I already think that The Heavenly Sky Diner would be a great investment. After all, me and Jack Lewis go way back," Christopher said hopefully. If he could get his hands on the restaurant, his financial flow problems would be solved instantly. Christopher phoned Jack Lewis and told him about his proposal. Jack listened attentively to him, but he didn't accept his suggestion at that moment. He simply told Christopher that he would talk to the owner and get back to him. When Jack Lewis hung up, he immediately called Warren. Warren was quick to answer the phone. Jack told him about what Christopher suggested and he also thought it was a good idea. Warren smiled when he listened Jack's explanation. That meant that everything was going according to plan. He instructed Jack to tell Christopher that he wouldn't accept anyt

"Are you sure? We can negotiate, it will not be too difficult to get a discount on the car," the salesman tried to explain. However, Warren was adamant in his decision. He wanted to pay full price for the car. He also wanted the salesman to complete the deal so that he may earn the commission since the lady was rude to him. The salesman got the necessary paperwork ready. The sales lady on the other hand were holding her breath, hoping that Warren couldn't afford the car. If he could, then that would mean she lost a huge customer and her colleague would get the commission that should have been hers. The salesman gave Warren the machine to pay. Warren swiped his card and entered his pin. There was a beep and the transaction was complete. When she heard that sound, the sales lady fell to the ground. She just lost out on 200 thousand dollars. That was the commission that her colleague received. Why was life so unfair to her. Warren signed the contract and t

Allison blushed when she felt Warren's gaze all over her body. She simply tried to look the part, but it came as a surprise to her that Warren would gawk so openly at her. "I'm ready," she said awkwardly as Warren was still admiring her beauty. Warren came to his senses and remotely opened the door for Allison to get in. The two of them then drove in complete silence to the Heavenly Sky Diner. Warren had everything worked out and Allison's presence was just an added bonus. It would serve as confirmation to the father and son that he isn't someone they should've messed with. When they arrived at the restaurant, Warren helped Allison out of the car and parked it. The two of them entered the restaurant and Jack Lewis was personally there to welcome them. He was as polite as he usually was when he saw Warren, but he was a little bit nervous when he saw Warren came with Allison Banks. She was someone that even people of the caliber of Jack Lewi

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
