Chapter One Hundred Seventy-Two: Kidnapped.“ARE you sure it’s Eric?” Amery asked, worriedly.Paxton shrugged. “I didn’t know. That’s why I rushed here to ask you personally.”Amery brushed her hair with her fingers. She was frustrated. She thinks that it was all because of her. If she didn’t slap Brixon last night then maybe he will not go to Eric. This is all her fault!“Brixon is not here, I didn’t see him at the school earlier. I feel so nervous ever since earlier.” She said, shaking her head while crying.“This is insane. That Eric is using his own son for his sake. I can’t believe it!” Paxton yelled. “Are you aware that he’s like this?”“Yes! That’s why I don’t want Brixon to talk to him again. I didn’t know that he’s been talking to his father. I didn’t suspect it because I thought Eric has already given up on us.”“Do you know where his place?”“How would I know? I didn’t know either. But Brixon said he’s staying near here. Eric probably has no money. He is a gambler and he al

Chapter One Hundred Seventy-Four: A Total Shit.PAXTON and Ryker have been looking around the apartment for about two hours but they haven’t seen them. Amery kept on calling him to ask how was the search but still, he has no good news. He’s pitying his cousin because she heard her crying and he knows that she won’t be able to calm down until they find Brixon.“Is there a basement in this kind of apartment?” Paxton asked. “Why don’t we ask the owner of this building?”“It’s already ten in the evening, My Lord.”“I don’t care!” he shouted. “That mother fucker doesn’t care if it’s already ten in the evening. What he wants is to get money from me and kill Brixon!”Ryker nodded. “Alright, My Lord. We will talk to the owner.”They asked Patricia to know details about the owner of the building and she quickly finds it. Hiroshi and Oliver went to the owner’s house and knock even though it’s already ten in the evening.“Who are you?” The woman asked.“We are here to ask.” Hiroshi showed their

Chapter One Hundred Seventy-Six: Poisoned.“CONDOLENCES,” Miguel said after he sat down beside him.It’s the first day of the funeral of Sylvester Braxon. It was Miguel who did all the work on holding this funeral. After all, Miguel was the only one legally his relative and not Paxton. The law didn’t acknowledge Paxton as his son but as his godfather.“Condolence to you too,” Paxton replied. He sipped on the hot cup of coffee and glanced at him. “If Sylvester didn’t die, we won’t be able to see each other again. How are you?”“I’m fine, busy with the business that your father left to me. I will be having a baby shower by next month. It should be this month but because Uncle died, we need to postpone it.”Paxton nodded and then smiled. “Alright, I’ll be there. Since you weren’t in my son’s first birthday.”Miguel’s eyes widened. “I already explained it to you, I’m on a business trip at that time!”He just shrugged and then looked at the coffin where Sylvester was lying. They will hold

Chapter One Hundred Seventy-Eight: Guilty.EVEN though Lorelei didn’t agree with what he wanted, he still continued the investigation. He knew that Lorelei would eventually understand. It may be longer than what he expected, but it’s fine. For as long as he was able to find justice for Sylvester’s death… on his own.He couldn’t let his organization do all the work, he can’t just sit there and wait for the result. He also has to work on it in order for him to be satisfied.About an hour ago, Paxton with Ryker has been waiting for the police guard who has been guarding the cells where Sylvester was imprisoned. They didn’t know when he will get off work but they got information that he’s at day shift just last week. So they waited until eight in the evening. It’s already nine and he still hasn’t gone out of the police station.“Do you think he has already gone home?” Ryker asked.“I didn’t know…” he replied. “Let’s wait thirty more minutes—”“He’s there!” Ryker stopped him and pointed at

Chapter One Hundred Eighty: Monster. PAXTON was excited to go to the hideout today. Lorelei has finally forgiven him and he got to have a kiss from her before he left the house. It’s hard to work when he was not thinking right. He’s stressed because of the death of Sylvester while on the other hand, he was also devastated that Lorelei isn’t talking to him. So it is great that at least, his worries were lessened. “You look happy today,” Hiroshi greeted him. He was holding a cup of coffee. Ryker told him that they are planning out a new mission aside from Sylvester’s case which is okay with him. For as long as they were still helping… “Yeah, Lorelei has finally understood me,” he replied and then smiled. Hiroshi shook his head. “I think she still doesn’t understand you. But what she did was just let you do what you want to do because that’s what you want. She couldn’t stop you, why bother trying to?” “I’m in good mood now, Hiroshi. Don’t let me feel guilty again,” he said, narrowi
