Jack’s smile grew colder by the second. “Rather professional now, aren’t you, Mr. Hamilton?” The administrator smiled diligently. “I know you love your son, Ares. Don’t worry. The president is strong. Such small wounds have hardly done any damage to him.”Jack leaned forward and supported his weight on the administrator’s table with his two hands. “What if I suspect mistreatment from the hospital? Would you then have the authority to stop me from pulling the patient out?” “I...” Jack turned around and left. At the intensive care unit, Grayson, members of Ghost, and Grand Asia’s security team gathered around the most critical area of the medical department. There were sentries stationed not far away as well.Ten bodyguards stood by.Entering the intensive care unit, Jack smiled darkly at the stance taken. “Grayson, oh Grayson, isn’t this a bit of an overreaction? You can dismiss the bodyguards. We live in a lawful society, so how could anyone think of causing harm at the ho
Jack questioned, “Are you going to break the law?” Glaring at him with bloodshot eyes, Grayson shouted indignantly, “All I want is to protect my boss so that he doesn’t end up harmed by two-faced b*stards like you.” Jack gave the two men who stood by the room doors, Storm and Tempest, a good once-over. The two seemed skinny and frail, coupled with their exquisite features on their fair porcelain skin, they did not look like fighters. Planning to force his way in and hold Jay hostage as a way to restrict the bodyguard’s movements, he instructed, “Men, I want him out of there.” Around a dozen men he brought over ran toward the room door. With a calm expression on their faces, Storm and Tempest stood like two bam trees, rooted strongly in place to protect their president who was behind those doors. Infuriated, neither Storm nor Tempest held themselves back during the fight. A turning kick from Storm had Jack’s men lying incapacitated on the floor. While those who were met with T
Locked out of Grand Asia, Jack returned to the Sycamore Annex in a foul mood. Sera Severe stood from the couch and waddled toward Jack, asking in a delicate tone, “What’s wrong, Old Master?” Jack spared the two servants a gaze and they quickly excused themselves. Only then did Jack pull Sera into his arms. Caressing her large belly, he smiled. “Just worry about the baby. I promise, both you and our son will live the best lives life as to offer very soon.” Sera’s finger fell onto Jack’s lips as she gave him a flirty smile, “Jay couldn’t have died, could he, Old Master?” Jack huffed coldly. “Grand Asia is keeping Jay’s condition tightly under wraps. My guess is that he doesn’t have much time left, so Grand Asia is doing everything to prevent leaking his condition in case it causes the market to crash.” A flash of disappointment flared in Sera’s eyes. “You can’t be sure if you haven’t seen it with your own eyes yet. This son of yours is smart. I don’t want him learning bad thi
With widened eyes, everyone asked in anticipation, “Who?” Grayson replied, “Our little young master whose wits could rival that of the president.” Storm immediately rejected the idea. “No way. I promised the president I would ensure the little young masters and the little young lady’s safety. Letting Little Young Master Jenson help would risk having his location revealed. That would endanger the children.” Grayson patted Storm on the shoulder and reassured, saying, “You’re worrying too much. Only those with a death wish would try to provoke the three little devils.” Eyeing Storm’s hesitation, Grayson asked, “Unless you wish to see all of the president’s hard work come to naught?” Storm nodded grimly. Imperial Capital, the Throne Properties. On the best part of the land stood a villa where the Ghosts had built their home. Bringing Grayson to the villa, Storm found Baby Robbie lying on the floor sunbathing as beanbags tied his feet together. Lying in front of Robbie was
After a long while only did it dawn on Storm and Grayson that the two boys did not want to study. “Do the two of you not like academics?” Grayson felt the situation to be a little off. Jenson was a quiet boy, preferring to stay still than to move about. How could he possibly wish to put off studying for martial arts? As expected, Baby Robbie waged a finger at them. “That’s untrue. We don’t wish to be simpletons who are more brawn than brains. Instead, we’re striving to be all-rounded, well-developed beings of mankind.” Storm and Grayson’s expressions darkened. Storm gulped. “Would you two little devils speak English? What are you trying to say?” Baby Zetty smiled joyfully. “You can’t really blame others for calling you stupid when you are. Big Brothers’ words are already so straightforward, so how can you still not understand what they’re trying to say? Sigh.” Storm was speechless. “...”Storm looked at Grayson. “Did you understand?” Shrugging, Grayson shook his head.
A spark of suspicion flashed in Jenson’s eyes. “What about Daddy?” Grayson felt his heart bleed as a bitter smile was donned on his face. “Oh no, we couldn’t possibly disturb him for something so trivial. You know how your Daddy is. He’s a busy man with packed schedules and all.” Jenson’s sharp and onyx gaze locked onto Grayson’s. “So busy he doesn’t have time for us anymore? Does he not fear no one coming to visit his tomb when he dies of old age?” A piercing flare of pity flashed in Grayson’s eyes. If only the president would die of old age! Jenson’s pupils contracted as his heart clenched in fear. The only reason Daddy had not come to visit them for so long was that he had been held back by some immovable obstacle.Now even Grand Asia was in a crisis. Perhaps the situation was way worse than he had anticipated. “Hand me the laptop,” Jenson requested.Grayson quickly placed his notebook into Jenson’s hands. Jenson hugged the laptop in his arms as he ran toward the s
Jenson’s deep gaze locked onto Grayson’s face. “I can take it. Tell me.” Storm still wished to cover up the tragedy. “Don’t trust what you see online, Jens. They’re just rumors.” Grayson waved a hand at Storm. “It’s fine, we can tell him. This child isn’t easy to lie to.” Grayson cleared his throat. Now that the lie had been seen through, he found no need to mask his emotions either. Miserably, he began, “Something did indeed happen to your daddy. He almost lost his life in an ambush on his way to save your biological grandparents. As of right now, he’s still under immediate treatment at Grand Asia’s intensive care unit.” Baby Robbie’s pupils dilated in shock. It was as if his entire body had been steered by fury. The fists under his sleeves clenched tightly on their own accord. Jenson’s expression was frightfully serene. “Who did it?” Grayson replied, “We don’t know yet. But your other Grandpa, Jack Ares, has been busy lately. He even tried to move your father from the med
Jack was extremely appalled. “What?” The news shocked him, draining his previously bright spirit and making him look like he had his soul sucked out by the devils. He appeared drained and despondent beyond comprehension. “How could that be?” Jack muttered to himself in disbelief. Jack had purposefully housed a team of the best hackers just to break through Grand Asia’s networking system. They spent every day investigating and finding faults in the system. Not to mention these hackers of his actually had the ability to break through Grand Asia’s network years ago. The only reason nothing had happened then was because Grand Asia was flourishing and he feared Jay would suspect him. Here he thought it would be the critical moment to launch an attack on Grand Asia now that Jay was severely wounded in the hospital. He had not expected that they would be able to restore the stagnant network in less than three hours. Knowing that there was some skilled professional overseeing Grand
