BROOKS' MANSION, EAST HIGHLAND PARKIn the grand courtroom, Brooks is sitting in style with his legs crossed, holding onto a glass of wine and sipping leisurely at intervals while surfing the internet. He is no longer seething and appears rather relaxed. He even appears to be in an extremely happy mood as he keeps grinning from ear and ear and laughing to every meme and funny video he comes across.It's been an hour since he sent out Draco on a mission. In some missions, staying out for long is one to panic about but this mission Draco is taking care of is quite the opposite.The fact that he hasn't called for an hour now means a good thing. And the longer he stays out means things are going perfectly fine. He is very certain of it. And that alone is making him so happy. He should probably celebrate in grand later on with some breastified and asstified chicks once he achieves his motive."Mr. Miller," at this moment, Draco walks into the courtroom with a mischievous smile on his fa
DOWNTOWN, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA "Lucien, I've finally gotten all the information. From my investigation, the kidnappers are working for Ryan Douglas, who appears to be obeying the orders of his uncle, Hugo Douglas, the patriarch of the Douglas family. In a nutshell, it is safe to say the Douglases are behind Brianna's kidnap!"Lucien is leaning on a huge tree with a dark expression on his face as Declan passes to him every bit of information he has found out.After leaving Dragon bay, he had called Declan to meet up at a shade Downtown Richmond. He didn't want to waste any more time. Brianna has spent enough time with those assholes!"But I handled this perfectly well. How did they find out I killed Duke?" Lucien doesn't understand how the Douglases found out what transpired between him and Duke.He was certain with the way he took care of everything, there was no way in their lifetime, they would have found out everything. What then happened? How did things come to light? How?!At this
Everyone turns their heads to him and tilt their head in confusion as they don't recognize him."Your face looks unfamiliar, who are you?" Hugo asks, a little politely. Brooks came in with more than fifty powerhouses. That alone is enough to show him that whoever he is, he is a big shot. It is just as Brooks said it. His convoy has indeed earned him some respect from Hugo and a voice. It is obvious because, under normal circumstances, Hugo should've at least questioned Brooks on how he came in as he barged in on them, but he didn't do that and went ahead to ask him who he is. He even did so politely, which is quite unlike him."My bad," Brooks smiles apologetically and says proudly, "I'm Brooks Miller, the Scion of the Millers from Forest Hills.""What? The Millers?""He is the Scion of the Millers?""Wow, no wonder he holds his head so high and has this air of arrogance around him."The Douglases break into a frenzy and begin babbling incessantly. They might be the second wealthiest
"Just that?" Hugo raises a brow. He had thought Brooks will ask for something outrageous. But he only asked for Brianna.Is that even a request?! All he cares about is that Lucien pays for killing his son. Brianna was just used to get him over here. He has no interest in her at all! Hah, such a request is nothing to him!"Yes, Mr. Douglas. She's very important to me.""That will be no issue at all! You can have her once Lucien's head is off his neck. But there's a problem though!""What problem, Mr. Douglas?" He furrows his brows."My boy is yet to inform me if the operation went successful, or not. I am promising you blindly, so I hope you won't hold it against me!""Is that the problem?" Brooks laughs. "Mr. Douglas, that's not a problem at all! Didn't I say the moment I walked in here that the mission was successful? Did you think I was joking?"Well, I was not! See, the punk, Lucien, called me himself to ask if I was the one who kidnapped Brianna. "He couldn't have asked me that
Meanwhile, In a gigantic sitting room in a Mansion downtown East Highland Park, Ryan is sitting on a couch with a stick of cigarette in his hand and a smug expression on his face.Just now, his uncle Hugo called him to ask him where he and the kidnappers were and he told him they were still on their way home when in fact, they have arrived and are in his hidden Mansion! He clearly lied!On the couch opposite Ryan is Brianna. She has a glass of wine in her hand and there's a plate of rice and chicken on the classy glass table in front of her. She doesn't look like she was kidnapped at all! Instead, she looks like someone who has been brought on a date!Brianna is confused about this! Her belly is heavy! Since they arrived in this unknown Mansion thirty minutes ago, the young man before her who she has just found out to be Ryan has been bombarding her with food and drinks. It's more like he wants her belly to burst. And he has never for once made any advance to hit or assault her! Not
The breaths of Hugo and the Douglases catch in their throats and shivers run down their spines, their mouths wide open in horror.How did he appear? How did he? They can't believe their eyes. No, their eyes must be deceiving them. They must be! There is no how doing that is possible! No mortal man can be that fast! None!They look to the entrance and to their terror, the foot is no longer there. But they don't want to believe the foot belongs to the figure standing in the middle of the courtroom right now. They don't think it's possible for him to move at that speed!Without wasting any more time, they hurriedly look back at the foot of the figure in the middle of the courtroom and their eyes widen when it turns out it is his, their eyes threatening to pop out of their sockets! How? He was just at the entrance! How did he do that?"Punk, who are you and how dare you address me by my first name?! Have you no respect for your elders? How did you even get inside here? Who let you in?!"
"You should keep your mouth shut, young man, or I'll shut it for you! You can irrational, I don't care! And I still don't care about any other thing! He killed my son! That covers every other thing and he must pay! Besides, I'm talking to him alone! Every other person should shut up!" Hugo snarls. He appears to be adamant and doesn't care about anything else except getting revenge for his son."Should I shut up as well, old man?" Jack Ville arrogantly walks in at this moment with his men, his head held high as he exudes a ruthless aura. One almost on par with that of Hugo. He gets to Lucien and bows. "Mr. Wood," he respectfully acknowledges.Lucien nods at him, his expression extremely sour. He is on the verge of exploding.Seeing this, Jack Ville's expression darkens. He furiously turns to Hugo, his eyes bloodshot."I-""Save it! Didn't you ask me a question? My answer is yes, shut the fuck up!" Hugo doesn't let him say a word and barks."Hah! You think you are ruthless?" Jack chuckl
"Perhaps, my brother as a Bryson doesn't scare you enough! Old fart, can you repeat what you just said to my face? I'll love to see if you can still have the mouth to do so again!" At this very moment, an extremely vile voice suddenly says and the unexpected happens! In the very eyes of everyone, Tyler Bryson makes his way into the room with more than one hundred powerhouses!"Tyler?" Lucien, Declan, and the rest are shocked. Especially, Lucien.He had fallen out with Tyler not long ago and taken his Galaxy from him. Not long after that, Tyler had sent an assassin after him. The two of them can be said to be sworn enemies. So one can imagine the shock he feels seeing Tyler right there, standing up for him!He is wondering if something happened to his brain because he doesn't understand! Do enemies stand up for each other now? And how did he even find out they came here?"Ah, old man, I didn't expect to see you here at all! What are you doing here?!" Declan is the first to recover and a
