Sin Jon froze and dropped the glass of wine in his hand gently on the table. It sounded too good to be true. If he killed the masked man after giving the code, he could continue with his line of business by capturing the girls again or getting new ones. Also, his reign of terror would end, meaning freedom for every business. But he was confused. This man might have something planned. How could he let down his life like that? It wasn't as if those women and children were his family members.Time was ticking and Caddaric was out of options. Seeing the old man hadn’t picked up the gun, he continued in his robotic voice.“I will call someone. Pick the gun and give out the code. As soon as you are done, pull the trigger. I won’t fight back,” he assured him. The more time wasted, the greater the risk. He had less than eight minutes now and the clock was still sticking. He didn’t mind sacrificing his life for those innocent women and children and had run out of options. Since the man was w
Caddaric would have loved to play but there wasn’t time for that. “I don’t think so,” the robot voice sounded, as he grabbed the leader for cover without warning, shielding himself from the tons of bullets that began to rain down on him. Each bullet pierced into the man in front of him, tearing him into pieces when Caddaric realized the cover wouldn’t work for long. Those in attendance at the bonfire party had all run for cover. Caddaric managed to kill four of the men when he used the leader for cover but his bullet ran out and the remaining five armed men were inching closer to him when they began falling on their faces with bullet holes in the back of their heads. It was the best time for Caddaric to find out who his secret helper was but he pushed the dead body towards the new team that had replaced the old one and escaped. From the sound of the bullets he was hearing, he also knew that his backup had arrived.Getting into a chopper, he called the backup team and was told that t
“You mean you got every information regarding her past and present life?” Casper trusted Hunter but asked for confirmation.“Most certainly,” Hunter said and gave him a blue file. Casper took his time to go through the pages of the file as he hummed,“Don Brando Mends’ daughter. A college dropout. A brother she keeps a secret and she inherited a club from her father.” Casper paused and looked up at Hunter who was standing in front of him. “That information is wrong. Don Brando Mends was rather a car dealer. He never owned a club. This is well-amended information. Can you check the previous owner of the club for me?” He askedHunter was confused. His source of getting information was always accurate and it had only one name, “It was Don Brando Mends.”Casper disagreed immediately. He knew all these people. “That is amended information because that club used to belong to Castro.”Hunter understood that Casper had a lot of knowledge about the mafias but a club, he wasn’t a pro. “How did
Casper wasn’t surprised that Hunter of all people didn’t get it this time. It was because Casper Blade knew his son better than anyone else. He asked indifferently, “He gave the club to her so what do you think?”It wasn’t difficult for Casper to figure it out. If the information could be amended so perfectly, and the old one wiped explicitly as well, then there was only one person who had the expertise for that and that person was Marshall, who was now working for Caddaric. There was no evidence but Casper still got the unconfirmed truth. Hunter got it much slower.“I get it. He gave her his limited-edition Bentley as well.”Casper was calm. Now that his plan worked and Caddaric found a woman, it was time for part two of his plan.“Jen’s birthday is in a month. Make sure that Caddaric doesn’t miss it and I will love for him to bring Ariana along. I have a surprise for him.”Hunter never liked such surprises and from how calm Casper was, it only meant he was going to brew a storm. T
Caddaric wasted no time, scooping her into his arms and his car. Her pulse was weak and her body temperature was quite high. Driving to the nearest hospital, he thought about investing in healthcare as well since not everyone could enjoy the wonderful Blades hospital. Thus, his next project was to own one of the biggest hospitals worldwide.Arriving at the hospital, he carried her to the emergency ward, refusing to put her on any wheel. It was out of cohesion before the doctor could convince him to wait outside since he was adamant about leaving Ariana’s side. It wasn’t long but he felt it was the longest time he had waited for anything when the door of the emergency ward opened and Ariana was wheeled to the VIP ward per Caddaric’s instruction before the doctor led him to her office. She was a young doctor in her early thirties, about to introduce herself when Caddaric asked, “What is wrong with her?” The sternness in his tone left no room for the woman to meander about it but she
Ariana was stiff from shock and white as snow. Pregnant? She took a morning-after pill so how could that be? If Caddaric said she was, then she’d just have to ask the doctor about the possibility and also feared the child might be deformed since she had been taking oral contraceptives, not knowing before that Caddaric would be away for two weeks.Her mind was so clouded that she didn’t hear Caddaric again till he shook her. There was worry in his eyes. The first time she had seen something like that to him.“Is the child you are carrying mine?” He asked again, this time impatiently. Ariana had to think fast. She wanted this child but what if he told her to abort it because of his betrothed? This was her love child and even if he allows her to keep it, the Blades will come for the child as soon as he or she is born and Ariana would be the loser. Caddaric would soon get married to Miranda and all she had to remind her of her love for him was this innocent seed growing inside of her.“N
“I don’t think it’s right to tell you but Dario is back and in the club,” Juliet said thoughtfully, thinking that Ariana would be enraged. Rather, her eyes lit. If she got that money, she could escape from Caddaric. She wasn’t going to let the Blades have her child and didn’t mind sacrificing her love for Caddaric. After all, she had a mini him growing inside of her.“Let’s go to the club,” she said and was about to disconnect her tubes when Juliet pressed her back on the bed and hugged her.“It’s too early. He told Chad to get him some girls and said he’d be back after taking care of some businesses.”Ariana thought carefully. Now she needs to be smart in her ways. If she got the money, she’d just wait and escape anytime Caddaric left her alone. He was a very busy man and won’t always be with her. For as long as she won his trust again, he won’t be watching her discreetly.“Then that allows me to ask the doctor the reason why I got pregnant after taking the morning-after pills. If t
Miranda was asleep when she heard the beep sound of her phone and lazily picked it up to check. Shock covered her eyes when she saw the message. Somehow, she felt embittered but couldn’t allow information like this to travel. Instantly, she responded,‘Do you have a picture of the girl?’‘Yes. Find attached,’ an instant response came through.When she saw the picture, her heart sank but she couldn’t let her friend know and sent back,‘STOP SPREADING FALSE RUMORS. She is his secretary and she might be pregnant with somebody else’s child. Cadda is too disciplined to do that and don’t let the Blades target you for spreading something like this.’‘I’ve deleted the picture and everything. Please pretend that I didn’t text you just now.’‘I’m going back to sleep.’ Miranda texted back.She should be happy if Caddaric was indeed the father of Ariana’s child but she wasn’t. If Caddaric would reject her, why not do it before sleeping with Ariana? The earlier he did, the better for her to reuni
