Felix feigned a scoff and had his cheeks squeezed in motion. The last person who asked him that question was his older brother, Abel Hitler, when he contacted him to flush the alleged fraud case down the drain.On the same note, Victoria had once reminded him how every single citizen in Liverpool played by a certain designed script that they were mostly not aware of.Of all the covert jobs he had handled over the years. The Haydens’ assignment has been the strangest with its twists and turns, especially after the humiliation dished on Col. Achilles Hector.Also, the assignment had been the longest. Over seven years of falling in love and out of love with Star. Michelle smirked knowing her last words hit him despite his concocted pretence. “Have you thought of what happens when Star realizes all along you were the one who processed the illegal transactions with the Haydens’ offshore accounts!”“The Haydens had been in the news for the wrong reasons, mainly because of you.”DING!Miche

Michelle straightened her suit and crossed her legs in an unmatched aura. “You clearly don't know what it means to control the illegal business market and remain invisible for several years.”“Haha. You could have done your homework before embarking on the blackmail stunt on my ladies. It never occurs to you that you could be gunned down while those so-called documents would still be retrieved.”“I'm the invisible player boy. There's no route in Liverpool where I don't have loyal henchmen. All I need to do is make a few-second phone call and give the order of engagement.”“Within fifteen minutes this location was already under my grip. How do you think you can beat that?”Her words sank deep in his head. Felix knew she had just spilled the fact. Their possible counter-plan would be to eliminate him as long as someone else wouldn't have access to the incriminating documents.The salient question was, can Felix afford to trust someone else with the documents in case he was terminated?M

Michelle was doing all she could to not make it obvious that Felix's growing influence was gradually rubbing off on them.She didn't want to display her desperation before him knowing how Felix would utilize every bit of it.Felix scoffed and leaned from his seat. “Now you're talking girl.”Michelle smacked her lips as she understood what Felix did in purposefully using: girl.Felix's face dripped with seriousness, “I want 60 percent of the illegal market profits!”DING!Michelle's shoulders quivered with goosebumps, and she almost fell from her chair at the sound of his demands.Lucia's breath hitched as she leaned back in gripping shock. Her eyes stood open in dumbstruck.Victoria swallowed hard with her mouth agape at his outrageous request while running fingers through her hair like hell had been let loose.Felix had expected the usual ‘what’ response but instead the ladies went silent while staring at him like a ghost.Several thoughts are running through their minds. They had hi

Instantly, silence crept into the car. Margaret, who was seated next to him, beamed in delight at the warlord's words.Apparently, it didn't come as much of a shock that Achilles could make such a sacrifice for Gabrielle because of how he instructed them to will eighty percent of his assets if he had died while saving the Prime Minister.Achilles broke the silence, doing everything possible to hold onto hope, “Remember the plan. I’d walk in through the clinic back door and hide in the exclusive ward room.”Brig. Beauty, who was also seated at the back, uttered in assurance, “Yes, Warlord. The assistant medical director had been informed, and he assured that the back door hardly had legs trailing its hallway.”Achilles nodded. “Remember all CCTV cameras should be deactivated two minutes before my walk-in. I can't begin to emphasize the importance of this.”Margaret chimed in without hesitation, “Yes of course. Leonard, the head of the Tech department, had already been apprised. He dare

The stranger had certainly done what Felix Jacobs couldn't do, and Star wondered why it took her that long to realize how poorly Felix had conducted himself towards Gabrielle, so that it'd be almost impossible for her to regard him as father.She used to make excuses for Felix on how the whole rollercoaster with Achilles played out, with the hope that he'd be a better father figure to Gabrielle after the tension had subsided.Star knew after Achilles' accident. The mansion hadn't remained the same, and Gabrielle had never hidden the fact that she'd always rated him above anyone in the Haydens’ family, including her.Little wonder she once cautioned them and frowned at how mercilessly they treated Achilles.Star had watched Felix for several weeks after Achilles' car accident and knew he'd likely not fill into the warlord’s shoes even by quarter.Gabrielle would always see him as her mother's cousin, not worthy to be called a father.Star had tried to wave off such thoughts and possibl
