“This is the way to your study, Clement.” Clara pointed to the staircase, staring her husband in the eyes.“What are you looking for in the kitchen?” She asked, her voice sharp and firm. Clement parted his lips, but he couldn’t break his silence, his eyes avoiding his wife’s stare like the plague. “I know, Honey. But I never said that the document I am here for is in my study.” He pointed out, forcing a smile to remain on his face.He chuckled softly, yet Clara’s twisted expression refused to vanish.“We need to hurry, Mr. Mayor.” Hudderson broke the suspenseful silence, inching closer to Clement.“Let’s go.” He said with a low but imperative tone, his eyes glaring at the Mayor. He no longer cared about the reaction he was getting from Clément’s wife, all he wanted was to accomplish his mission, and it didn’t matter what was going to happen next. “Come on…” He growled silently, and that was enough to force the Mayor to make a quick move even while his eyes were still on his wife.

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND FORTY-FIVE “I am his new bodyguard.” Hudderson finally spoke when it was least expected, inching closer to the lady with a smile. “Hello, Mrs. Reed.” He extended his hand for a handshake and bowed his head slowly. Clara couldn’t hide her doubt and bemusement. They took total control of her countenance, leaving her silent for a while.“A new bodyguard?” She muttered, turning to her husband who looked extremely unready to give her a response. Clement kept his silence, but he had to get rid of it the moment Hudderson scowled at him, compelling him to speak.“Yes, my dear!” The Mayor forced the words out of his mouth, nodding to affirm his utterance.Still, his wife sensed the tension in his tone, something she couldn’t remember the last time she witnessed. Clara looked him in the eyes, totally confused and doubtful at the same time. “I didn’t realize that you needed a new bodyguard, Sweetheart. What happened to Thiago?”“Oh, that!” Clement scratched the back of

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND FORTY-FOUR “Keep on smiling,” Hudderson said sternly, driving slowly as he avoided all the gazes of the guards who couldn’t stop staring at him. Because Clement was smiling and nodding to their greetings, they didn’t think that anything was wrong, hiding their feelings as they struggled to hold onto their deadpan expressions. The Supreme Ruler continued his ride, pacing along the avenue until he eventually stopped a few meters in front of the mansion.Turning to the Mayor, he cleared his throat, but that seemed like it was enough to cause the man to fidget, covering his face as he thought that he was about to get a hit. Hudderson scoffed, shaking his head in mockery. “So much for picking up a man and locking him up in your basement, Mayor Reed.” He huffed, and then he pointed to the door. “Get out.” He ordered, but with a calm tone that the Mayor dared not to flaunt. Getting out of the car, Clement looked around, and then he realized that even with the numbe

“Answer the question I asked you and stop wasting my time, Clement!” Hudderson barked at him, causing him to gasp. “He…” The Mayor could no longer find his words, but he was reminded that his life could be at stake. “He is not in the correctional facility, is he?” Hudderson inquired, and even though the Mayor said nothing, the guilt in his eyes was evident, prompting the Supreme Ruler to nod.“Where is he?” He asked, and the Mayor would have been very foolish not to give him the answer to his question. “I kept him somewhere safe, Sir,”“Where?!” Hudderson asked with a harsh tone, scaring the Mayor to his teeth. “In my basement.” Clement retorted at once, his voice shaky and low. Hudderson arched his brows, but it seemed as though his anger was hanging as well.“I am forced to refrain from hitting you.” He remarked, straining his veins as he clenched his fists tightly.This sent shivers down the spine of the Mayor who couldn’t get himself to say even a single word, staring as he r

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND FORTY-TWO Hudderson’s words left everyone bewildered, but it didn’t seem like he was done talking.He looked around, his eyes staring at the policemen with guns in their hands as though he was about to attack them. This made them take combat stances, their grips on their guns getting tighter as though they were getting ready for whatever was about to happen. “I am just here for Gabriel, Mayor Reed. Hand him over, and we will not need any fracas…” Hudderson said calmly, turning to Clement with a cold expression. Again, the Mayor was forced to prove that he was not going to act weak in front of the stranger.“What’s going to happen if I refuse to hand him over?” Clement asked, and when he realized that he was not going to get any response from Hudderson, he continued with a low tone, inching closer to him. “Gabriel Almond is a criminal, Hudderson. He came into this city and decided to play Mr. Romantic by getting close to my daughter. I had to remind him that my

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND FORTY-TWO “I am sorry about that.” Hudderson gave a very fake apology, showing clear signs that he didn’t mean his words. “There is absolutely no need for all of this drama. Just take a seat and I will explain myself to you.” He repeated the words that triggered the Mayor’s anger, but it didn’t seem like he was going to say something like that again. “Very well,” He sighed after a few seconds, turning to Tyler. “Since the Mayor has decided not to sit, I might still state the purpose of my visit to this city.” Hudderson cleared his throat, but before he could say a word, five policemen had stormed into the office, including Sam who was right in front of them.Becky was still standing outside, and sensing the tension in the large room, she chose to remain outside. “Good day, Mayor Reed.” Same bowed to Clement, and then he took a deep breath, attempting to deal with the glare of displeasure he received from him. “I came as soon as Miss Reed came to me.” He expla
