CHAPTER 111
For a slow moment, everything seemed to blend into a blurry image.The environment, the warehouse and the body in his hand.Lucian felt a terrible rush of rage through his body, numbing him for a whole minute."Tracy."His voice came in a whisper as he observed her body.Lucian's palms balled tightly into fists of grief.She was cold as ice, her hair disheveled and he body covered in marks and bruises."Tracy, can you hear me?" He began, his voice now raised as he shook her body violently, trying to check for any sign of life.But shake her as he did, it was fruitless.She remained still, her eyes closed and her face pale."No. No. No!"He muttered under his breath.How could he have been so late?Why were things suddenly going south for him with the people he was concerned about.First it was Mr. Charles.Now Tracy.Lucian squeezed his eyes shut, his expression hard as he thought back to Tracy.She was so stubborn and adamant but at least he had always been right in time to save her.
CHAPTER 112
Monica's face was red as a beetroot as she sat in her car outside the police station. She didn't know what to think."I can't believe this is happening."News of Lucian's arrest again had reached her through one of their house maids who had heard about it first.For all things good, she couldn't understand why Lucian was always getting arrested.This time for the murder of Tracy.As much as it broke her to hear that the popular owner of thegrowibg and thriving alchemy business was dead, it broke her even more that Lucian would be accused of her murder.Wasn't it the same Lucian the same person who kept running to her rescue all the time?Her driver's voice broke her out of her thoughts."Should I wait for you, madam?""Of course. Or do you think I want to trek back home?" She hadn't expected to snap at her driver but her nerves were getting the best of her.With a deep sigh, she got o
CHAPTER 113
"What??!!"The exclamation was so loud it caused his father to lose his grip on his cup of tea and the cup fell to the ground, breaking into a million pieces.But Blake was more broken than the cup on the ground.He held the phone to his ear, his ears tingling with disbelief at what he had just heard."I'm very sorry, sir. We tried our best but there was nothing we could do against presidential authority.""Does the president now protect a criminal? Oh my goodness, I'm so disappointed in you. An officer of the law chose to release a criminal because the president said so."Officer Donald was now tired of hearing people speak to him like he didn't know what he was doing."Listen, if you have any problem, sort it out with the president. I just called to inform you of the recent happenings.""You are supposed to keep criminals away from the city but you just released one and you still have the guts to speak to me l
CHAPTER 114
No sound. No movement. From where Lucian hid in the shadows, he was still as a rock, his breathing controlled but his senses heightened.Discerning that the steps were coming from the floor beneath his, he crept around the room, moving so stealthily that not a single sound could be heard.Judging from the steps; the weight and rhythm of them, the intruder was more than one person. There had to be at least three of them.He crept further until he was just leaking our of the secret room he had found the evidence.From the way they were walking, he had enough time to quietly analyze their pace and direction. A voice was speaking but it sounded very muddled and distant."Can't leave marks...""... did you say you dropped her?""Everything must be..."Moving with precision, Lucian silently maneuvered around the rusted railing, slipping into the darkest corner of the warehouse.The steps were getting louder now.This was an abandoned warehouse, known to have stopped functioning long befo
CHAPTER 115
Lucian brought this car to a standstill once he got back to his hotel.His mind was barely on the road as he drove back home.Walking out of the car, his mind remains fixed on the same thing it had been fixed on for the past thirty minutes since he left the warehouse.The sharp, cold voice of the old woman haunted him, replaying themselves in his head over and over again."You missed that spot. Do you really need me to tell you what to do?""It would be disastrous for him to lay his hands on any single clue or evidence.""He can use it in ways you can't even imagine.""He found her body. If anything goes wrong, he would just as soon discover us!"Lucian paused his journey into the hotel for a moment.He held onto the wall with his palm, resting his weight on it as he tried to steady his breathing.That woman's voice was so awfully familiar that he was almost going crazy trying to remember who s
CHAPTER 116
There were a couple of harmless emails in her spam. They looked like an advertisement for some kind of investment or partnership. But she had obviously left them in her spam. However, he went back to her primary emails, checking her last messages with the Jeffersons. Nothing fishy, apparently. But to Lucian who read between the lines, there was everything fishy about the interactions. The email seemed like random phishing emails but upon opening them, they were empty. Almost like they had been cleared. "Odd." The many emails didn't appear to be connected but they all followed the same pattern. The activities unsettled Lucian. Tracy had been repeatedly contacted and followed by a particular corporate account frequently. After a little bit of digging, he realised the truth; all activities traced back to the same source, leading him to piece together a fraction of this case. This account had reached out to her the day before she died for a false business meeting. No doubt, t
CHAPTER 117
Lucian turned sharply to face the doctor, his expression turning murderously cold. "What?! Did you let her in?" He snapped. The doctor was obviously taken aback. Knowing what Lucian was capable of shook his head in the negative sharply. "No, sir. We didn't let her see Elsa. That's why I called you to find out if we should let her see Elsa." "How does she even know Elsa?" He asked himself but the doctor answered in response. "She claimed to be a distant relative." "And where is she now?" "She left." Lucian nodded, sighing deeply. "It's alright. Thank you very much, doctor." With that, he headed to Elsa's ward. She lay on the bed, asleep but so pale that she looked almost unconscious. The faint beeping of machines filled his ears but he could barely hear anything. His face darkened as the doctor's report continually remained in his head and that unsettling feeling settled in the pit of his stomach again. The old woman. For some very odd reason, he cou
CHAPTER 118
The old woman held onto a walking stick for some kind of support but with the way she moved, it didn't look like she needed it all that much."I hate having to repeat myself. Is this the household of Tracy's family?!"But just then, Blake snapped.It was either the rage that had settled within him, or it was the amount of alcohol he had consumed."How dare you?! Who the hell do you think you are to barge into here like you own this place?! Get out!!"His voice reverberated with power, his eyes red with rage and grief pressing to be unleashed.The old woman's gaze flickered to him like an insolent fly buzzing in her ears.Her eyes glinted with fake amusement."You want to know who I am?"Blake charged at them, his feet light as he lunged a blow at the woman.She stood still, unafraid.Without any signal from her, one of the men who had come with her caught Blake by his neck, squeezing it hard."Urggh!" Blake spluttered, clawing at the hand of the man.His mother's eyes were wide in fea
CHAPTER 119
Lucian stepped back, his eyes blazing with intense rage.He shifted on his feet, trying to make sense of what this strange caller was saying."What do you mean?"Just then, his ear picked the sound of someone's footsteps drawing closer to the office he was in.The person was walking lightly, almost like they didn't want to get caught but Lucian was sharper than that.He spun around to face the door of the office, his phone still placed on his ear.The caller laughed darkly."Do you really want to know?"The door to the office flew open suddenly.Lucian got ready to attack whoever it was but first, he waited to see who exactly the person was.A tall man walked in, holding his own phone to his ears too. A sinister smirk lay on his lips."Lucian, we finally meet." The voice of the man floated not just through the air but through Lucian's receiver.This was the caller."I've heard so much about you," the man stood at the entrance, with no intention of leaving.Lucian frowned deeply.This
CHAPTER 120
CHAPTER 120 Geraldine stumbled backwards from the force as she curved her aura. There was no way on earth Lucian could be a normal human being. "Answer me!" She screamed at him, her composure the most discomfited it had ever been. She took equal steps backwards as Lucian walked further into the house. "Answer me... Or you'll regret it!" Lucian's expression bore a horror that she feared she might not be able to stand. "You killed Tracy!" She shrugged nonchalantly. "How else was I supposed to get your attention?" Lucian's palms fisted. "You're supposed to be dead, Geraldine. Tell me this; how are you alive when your death was recorded years back?" Her expression contorted from a pale, white one to a sinister one again. At least she held that against Lucian. He was amazed. "I'm Geraldine. Even death knows that my will is more powerful than it. No one can stop me when I've set my mind to something. Not even death!" "Really? Because it did. We all attended your burial. Except
