Joey has been admitted to the hospital after the fight with Jaden and was undergoing intense treatment.
He sustained a fracture to his left shoulder and a lot of bruises to his face.
Since he has been admitted, Gusto has never left his side, he has been the only one that stayed with him.
"Gusto, thank you for staying around me... I appreciate this a lot!" Joey almost in a fainted voice uttered to Gusto, just after he woke up.
"You don't have to say that, what are friends for!" Gusto replied with a calm smile on his face, as he held Joey's hand lightly.
"I don't know what has come over Jaden... I thought I could save him, but he is obviously out of control now!" Joey's expression dulled, as he made those statements.
"What do you mean by saving him, and him out of control?" Curiosity took over Gusto's face, as he asked.
"I and Jaden have been friends, not until this tournament came. I tried to advise him not to participate in the tourna
"Have you forgotten I own 30% shares just like your son do too?" Michael said with a smirk while glaring at Herbert."And that's why I'm offering to buy it from you. Trust me, I will pay you handsomely!" Herbert sat across from Michael and tells him the offer."You will pay me just like how you've done to someone in the past right?" Anger clouded Michael's face as he suddenly remembers something."What are you talking about?" Herbert sounds surprised as he stares into his eyes. He was scared of Michael mentioning what happened in the past between him, and his dad.Herbert kept thinking about what exactly could Michael have known about in the past. He knew he did a clean job then, that no one would suspect him of any evil act."Nothing!" Michael controlled his anger and took his gaze away from Herbert body. "I'm not selling my shares!" He replied with a nonchalant voice, and continue signing the documents on his table.'He's just like his dad
The final day of the tournament has come and all hands were on deck for the person who could emerge as the winner.In the eyes of most people, James and Jaden are the top favourites and they will all fancy the fight of both of them against each other in the finals.All remaining fighters marched out from the dressing room to see their loved ones or parents before the fight began.Sonia and Austin came in full support of their son, James, and high expectations were on him, especially from his mother.Jaden also marched out expecting to see only Williams, but to his greatest surprise; his Mom came along.The moment Jaden saw his mother, he couldn't hide his happiness and the expression on his face was nothing, but an unending excitement.He immediately ran towards them and hug his Dad, but felt a bit reluctant to do the same with Susan... But Susan gave him a side hug."I'm so glad that you both could make it here!" With a lot of excite
As early as nine in the morning, Peter dressed up with the outfit he wore yesterday and left the hotel.He wanted to go and see the Intel Wise One talked about yesterday first, before going to the mall, to get some new clothes.With the help of the address sent to him by Wise One, Peter drove to where the Intel is staying. After about 20 minutes of drive from the hotel, he got to his destination.Peter looked for a secure place around the building and parked his car. He was surprised how the area was in total silence, as he hopped down from the car."What's happening? Why is everywhere dead silent?" Peter muttered to himself in a low voice and brought out his phone from his pocket.He looked at the address again, to be sure if he hasn't come to the wrong area. "This is the place!" Peter returned his phone to the pocket, and gently stride to the building in front of him.As he took like three steps from his car, he suddenly felt something col
The feelings that they were all having at that present moment, could not be explained or imagined by any of them.They were all staring at each other for a while before Austin decided to break the silence.He was shocked seeing Susan and Williams, but he was also grateful for seeing Susan after a very long while. The moment he tried to approach her for a conversation, he received the greatest snub of his entire life.Austin was snubbed heavily by Susan, as he was trying to approach her; Sonia was calling him, but he didn't answer.Austin was adamant about reaching Susan for a conversation, but she walked out on him...Sonia was filled with rage, as her expression was already on the danger mode with a look of disappointment toward Austin on her face.James was left in confusion and worry, as he couldn't understand what was happening then. Sonia also got angry, as she also walked out of the scene leaving James, Austin, and Williams all alone.
The moment Williams noticed that Jaden had fallen asleep and he looks better, he decided to take his leave.Before he left, he pleaded with the academy clinic doctor to please take good care of Jaden, and immediately he did that, he departed from the clinic.Williams was still filled with anger towards Susan with the way she reacted to Jaden's state, even when he was seriously in pain.The moment he got into the car, Susan looked in his direction expecting him to say a word to her; but he refused to say anything to her.He just started the car and drove away from the academy and as they journeyed back home, they never spoke to each other.'So Sonia had finally found me? I hope she has not been talking to Susan!... Because Susan has been acting strangely for some time!' Williams thought to himself, as he looked unrest about everything going on.'But I don't think they know each other, I need to do something about this... My family must be pro
"Why the sudden change of attitude from you Jaden? You are not the same friend I knew then. What has come over you in just these past few weeks?" Roselyn looked concerned as she kept staring at him in awe."Nothing is wrong with me Roselyn! You are the one who insisted on hanging out with someone am not pleased with!" Jaden replied with a stern look."Is that Joey you are referring to?" She was surprised."Who else? Of course, it's Joey!""Did you ever think of asking him why he participated in that tournament?""I don't need to know what I already knew! Joey did that because he's envious of me." Jaden said with all seriousness."You are mistaken Jaden... Joey wanted to help you out by risking his own life." She answered with a calm voice."Meaning?" Jaden asked while glaring into her eyes."Joey overheard James and his friends, planning an evil act towards you during the tournament. So, he decided to join with the notion that,
The next day, Peter left the hotel he was staying in around noon, to go see Bridget. After Wise One has talked to him, he saw some reasons why he should go see her again.He can't jeopardize their entire lives just because of her arrogance. He has promised to be calmer with her this time, so they can get more information about the hybrid.Peter arrived at Bridget's place after some minutes of drive. He parked his car where he did, the last time he came here. As usual, the whole area was in total silence again.Immediately he hopped down from the car, he made sure to check around if someone is following him, or not, before he finally walked over to her building.When Peter got to the entrance, he pressed the bell at her door side, and wait patiently for an answer from inside. But to his surprise, no one answered. He pressed it again, still, no response."I thought Wise One said she would be around! Why is she not answering? Or is she not at home?" H
Three weeks after the tournament, and things all over the academy have changed drastically! Factions are now everywhere, and James has also been ruling over most students with his bullying attitude.Since James has emerged as the champion of the tournament, he has been moving around with the words that he's the strongest person in the Academy, and his arrogant attitude has been heightened beyond control.James, Paul, Chiu, and Alexander, the newly recruited friend they have now, walked into the academy canteen to have their lunch when all eyes were on them.Jaden and Rocky were also seated on one of the tables there, having their meals when James and his friends walked into the canteen.Immediately James and the rest of his friends collected their meals, they all marched towards the table. Then James saw Jaden and Rocky seated close to the table, next to where they collected their meals."This is going to be very interesting!" James mumbled softly
