"Who's there?" He roared at the direction of the approaching footsteps.Derrick and the others followed his gaze into the darkness. To their shock, a tall, well built man with eyes that glowed out in the darkness like burning coals led four other men as they came into vison at a languid pace.Christopher, Mr. Richard and his son cowered in equal parts of fear and relief at the arrival of Nathan. "N.. Nathan..." They all stuttered.Nathan was initially furious with Christopher the most. However, upon learning that Chris had refused to betray him yet again earlier, he found his anger giving way to disappointment at the sight of him staring at him with a gaze of regret.Nathan stepped forth and scanned around before his gaze fell on Derrick."So, it was you who have been pulling the strings in the dark?" He asked calmly.Derrick did not expect Nathan to arrive at Eagles Land and for him for that matter.As shocked as he was, Derrick quickly regained his composure.Upon returning to his s
Derrick gazed at Nathan in alarm. Though he was well aware of Nathan's battle prowess, he did not expect the five exceptional fighters who had been with him since the old days of the war to fall as easily as they just did in Nathan's hand.Nathan glared back at him. "Are you going to do it? Or shall I?"Derrick took off his jacket and tossed it aside. "I have been enlisted as early as I was legally allowed to. I was a part of the Marine Corps, and I was trained at a Military Academy. Through out the years of war, I have had my fair share of worth opponents. Whether or not I survive this fight, I will not be surrendering. I know that I am no match for you Mr. Clemon, but I will fight you until my last breath."Nathan lifted his head. "Come on then and stop blabbing. I have other's to attend to."Boom!Derrick leaped forward with a force similar to that of a cannon ball, leaving behind cracks in the concrete floor where his feet had been.Upon closing in on his target, he raised a fist.
With a sigh, Samuel walked up to Christopher and said. "You have gone too far this time Chris. We are all equally disappointed. Why didn't you confide in us? Was it so hard to admit to a homicide now?"He just shook his head when Chris didn't respond.Nathan then turned his attention to his uncle and cousin. "As for you, I have been waiting greatly for the day I will make you pay for all the things you have been doing behind my back.""What are you talking about? I was forced here. I'm even grateful to you for appearing at the right time. As I didn't know what would have happened."Nathan couldn't believe his ears. What did he mean by he is grateful for him showing up? Mr. Richard proceeded to add. "If you hadn't appeared now, they were going to hold me here for not helping them assassinate you. Although you and I have our differences, they is no way I will assassinate my own nephew. How would that make me?"Seeing that his dad was trying to keep them alive, Joey also added. "Yes Nat
Soon, news of Derrick reached the Despite Group of Company's headquarters.Hanova Despite had just finished meeting with the military big shots from country Y. After he had sent them away respectfully, his expression turned grim.He returned to the living room. His two trusted aides, the Lonely Reaper and Bran Sword were waiting for him.Despite sat down in annoyance. He lifted a glass of water from the table and took a sip. Suppressing his fury, he asked sternly. "What bad news did you receive from Derrick?"The burly Lonely Reaper exchanged a look with Bran Sword who had two swords strapped to his back.When Bran Sword saw that the Lonely Reaper was unwilling to speak up, he spoke up. "Mr. Despite, updates from Eagles Land said that Derrick's army has been killed by Nathan."What?A look of fury appeared on Hanova's face.Steeling himself, Bran Sword continued, "Also, Nathan has a message for you."Despite asked grimly. "What did he say?"Bran Sword replied. "Nathan said if you don'
Suddenly realizing what was going on, Samuel became furious at Hanova's actions.Nathan picked up the remote control and switched off the television.Kyle then spoke up. "Ignore all this Nate. He is trying to provoke you on purpose. In my opinion, he is just a loser who is provoking you futilely after failing to compete with you.""Yeah Nate." Samuel added.Not long after, Kyle bid his goodbyes and left as he had to attend to other things. Leaving behind Samuel and Nate.Since Samuel also had patients to attend to, he also didn't stay for long and left Nathan to continue with his work too.Nathan went through all the documents and even had a video call conference with his subordinates at the Clemon group and gave out some instructions to them.Oblivious to Nathan, Hilda's treatment facility had been infiltrated by Hanova's men, Lonely Reaper and Bran Sword.Neither of them were dumb. The men whom Hanova had sent to assassinate Nathan had all been defeated by Nathan although he suffere
The female doctor who looks to be in her fifties smiled and said. "The patient is lucky. The bullet almost struck a critical spot. But we have already removed the bullet. So her life is not in danger any more. She just needs to recover slowly."When the rest heard that, they heaved a sigh of relief.At this moment, Nathan's Army also arrived. They rushed to greet Nathan in the hospital.Stanley who led them in reported solemnly. "Boss, we discovered where Mrs. Clemon is headed."Nathan's heart lurched as he asked Stanley. "Where are they taking my wife?"Stanley replied. "The kidnappers are professionals and had come prepared. After abducting Mrs. Clemon, someone recieved them and they escaped to country Y embassy. Within an hour, they boarded a plane and left the embassy for contry Y. They are on their way to country Y now.Gasper was shocked. "But why would the authorities of country Y want to kidnap Mrs. Clemon?"Nathan replied slowly. "It's probably not committed by the authoritie
After an hour of flying, the lights in the plane were suddenly turned on, interrupting everyone's rest.Gasper walked over and whispered to Nathan. "Nathan, Despite is calling you."Smirking coldly, Nathan instructed. "Accept the call. Let's see what tricks he has under his sleeves."Gasper accepted the call and passed the phone to Nathan.Nathan spoke up. "Hello?"Hanova's gloating voice sounded from the phone. "Hahaha! Hello Mr. Clemon. I'm sure that you are worried sick about your wife right?"Nathan demanded coldly. "Did you send someone to kidnap my wife?"Grinning, Hanova responded. "You can't say that we kidnapped her. Your wife's father, Mr. Dam Sanchez misses his daughter a lot. So I decided to fetch Mrs. Clemon over for them to meet. Oh, right. Mr. Sanchez misses not only his dear daughter but also his son in law. He hopes that Mr. Clemon can come to country Y. I'm sure you won't refuse right?"Nathan was shocked about what he had just heard. He figured Hanova was getting on
The Despite Group Company could be considered as an independent turf on it's own. Its borders were surrounded by high walls with security guards standing at the patrolling posts.High rise buildings stood within the walls, looking like a closed off world.Nathan, Samuel and the rest had managed to get their hands on the Despite Group Company's floor plan and how the security posts were distributed. If they entered through the front door, they would alert the security unnecessarily.Hence, Nathan and the rest went to an off site gate that was meant for transporting daily trash and product waste out of the place.There were a few security guards there but the security was not as strict as the main door.At that moment, the security guards were smoking and drinking beer in the security room. There were fried chicken, hamburgers and poker cards strewn across the table.They were happily drinking when they saw a burly man appear in front of them. For a moment, they were stunned.Before the
