Davis facepalmed himself. Something was going on. He knew it. With August's explanation just now, everything made a lot of sense.There were traitors in their midst that were working for someone else. He didn't know who they were and it wasn't like they were proofs pointing at anyone yet.All he could do now was to try and investigate so he could find some answers. At least he had to help August in the little way he could. Also he had to warn him not to dig into his identity or else he was going to die.He hadn't even had time to talk to him privately and yet these men had chased him away.“This meeting has been dismissed. You all can leave now. I hope none of you is scheming against here and using our ammunition to carry out such actions. If found guilty we all know that these actions are punishable by death!” Davis reminded them in case they might be forgetting that.“Understood supreme commander. We will take our leave now.” All four of them said before standing up and walking out

“Let me get prepared so we can go.” Caroline leaned off the bed and moved her feet to the edge, about to get up, when August hurriedly held her by the shoulder. “Wait, you aren't going anywhere.” He said softly and gently pressed her shoulders, directing her back to the bed. “But why? She's my friend. I thought you said we were going to help her?” Caroline's brows furrowed. “Ooh, yes, I did, but I never said we would go together. Look, you are now with a child. I won't want you to face whatever it is we might face in the Brown family villa too.” He said earnestly. He didn't know who her fiancé was, but the fact that Thane was willing to give her up must mean that the family was so powerful that they could decide the fate of the Brown family. Or, perhaps, he might be after something of greater height, and by marrying her off, it could guarantee that to him. “But...” Caroline wanted to protest but stopped halfway as what he said made so much sense. She was still feeling dizzy, and

At this point, Shadow was still standing in front of the door. He had one of his earpieces on and was leisurely scrolling through his phone for some hot songs he could play to cool his head with. Though he badly wanted to go to the Brown family villa too so he could have some fun fighting, Caroline was his priority, so he had to stay back. Just then, multiple footsteps could be heard stomping their way towards his direction.His brows creased, and for a moment he assumed a song might have started playing; that was why he was hearing such sounds. But as time went on, the sound kept pounding louder.He had no choice but to pull the earpiece off his ear, and when he did, he craned his head to the left corner to listen when he saw four people charging in with an electric baton in one hand and a knife in the other. “Who are these people?” He thought to himself. If he could recall properly, it wasn’t like they had made any enemies since they came here. The only person who had annoyed the

Standing in front of the Brown family villa was August, going through his phone as soon as he heard a beep sound. He looked and saw it was a text from the shadow. However, the content of the message made a frown emerge on his face. Someone dared to send people over to kill his wife? Indeed someone was tired of living, and since that was it, he was ready to fulfill their wishes for them. Furthermore, he was able to validate something: the mastermind of all this might have been the one who took Caroline from her parents and made these things happen. That person had caused her pain, made her feel she wasn’t wanted by her parents; that was why she was given away. And yet, to cover that secret, that person wanted to kill her off. “Elena huh? I’ll surely pay her back for this.” He said through gritted teeth before putting his phone away. Already he trusted the fact that Shadow had taken care of the situation, so there was no need to get worked up about it. But that didn’t mean his ang

He knew who August was; he was the captain of the same regiment from which Maddie was recruited. He knew his feats, how terrifying this man could be, and, what was more, his power status. If this man were the one who caused the commotion outside, then even the Patel family wouldn’t dare to stand in front of him. Few people knew August by face. What was much more popular was his name, Black Eye, and his achievements.“The god of war? You mean from the Red Blood Regiment? Are you saying he is the black eye?”“Ooh my God, is this man really that man? That man single-handedly killed off one thousand rising forces that wanted to intrude on the country. He is known to be the strongest god of war in the country, and we shall forever be indebted to him for what he has done for us. Is that man really him?”“If that man is him, then indeed not only the Charles family but even the Patel family doesn't have a chance against him.”Everyone began to give out their share of the story that they ha
