Brook kept on going, begging Roman for forgiveness, saying he didn't exactly look at it as a bad thing, rather it was all just ‘business’ to him. Kind of like the one he was proposing to start with Roman. Roman just rested, aback, listening to what Brook had to say. Brook probably thought he was smart for initiating an idea to make Roman not to expose him, but knowing that it was all Roman's plan. Roman had used William as the Scapegoat so Brook would know what would befall him if he acted the same way. Brook was playing right into his game. “I've heard all you've said.” Roman said to Brook. “And you're right, you're my next target.” Roman added. He could see Brook's eyes twirl. These words were enough to make his heart skip. “And I don't know how it would seem if the world knew I'm doing business with a dubious person.” Roman further explained. “That being said, I don't think I can do this.” Roman stood up immediately and left, but Brook quickly held on to him. “Please, pleas

“My father has over ten bases at different places in the country.” Cross’ daughter told Roman and his team. “We need the locations of the place, Zara!” Carson yelled at her. “Excuse me, you don't get to yell at me like that.” She barked at him. “I'm not under interrogation, I'm part of the team, remember?” She added. “Relax, Carlos.” Roman told him, finally allowing him to get off Zara's back. She knew exactly where the 10 hideouts were and she showed all of them on the map. “The place you destroyed is his main base.” She said. “You actually crippled him with that.”“How long before he recovers from the damage?” Roman asked. “Best guess, a very long time. It would have been easier, but you've turned almost everyone with him against him. All his most powerful people.” Zara explained. “If you intercept fast enough, you can definitely get him.” This was good wisdom, but they knew they needed to act fast. Damian was definitely doing house cleaning and if they didn't get to him on tim

Mira couldn't get close to them throughout the event. She tried all she could, but Roman and Lena’s position were well guarded and only initially enlisted personnel could serve them. Everything she had done to be there would be in vain. Out of frustration, she quit even before the event could end. The employer didn't mind. They had enough workers already. Tears rolled down her eyes as she walked back home. She began to understand the true cost of her cruelty. It wasn't prison, not poverty, but watching someone else live the life she could have had.*****The following week was the Walter group summit at the Walter mansion. “I know how important this summit will be to you and your family, but I have a request to make.” Lena asked her husband, scared he would not allow her to do what she wanted to. “What is it honey?” He asked her. “As a business partner, I'd like to launch my signature initiative for eradicating workplace discrimination and exploitation.” She told him. “EWDE.” He

“Where did she go?!” Roman yelled at the rest of the team. “Where did she go!” They tried to calm him down, but to no avail.He had sustained a lot of injuries from the confrontation, but he didn't care about it. All he wanted was his wife. *****After all hope was lost and they made peace with their deaths, rather than the explosion for the ground to collapse over them, it started from behind, while the traps were lifted up for the men to run in time to save their lives before the explosion got to them.Carlos grabbed onto Roman tight, pulling him up and they raced towards the point they entered through. Luckily for them, they were fast enough and those who weren't dead already all made it out. They lost almost a quarter of their men to that attack and retreated as soon as they had a chance to. Roman was badly injured and ready, but still wanted to go down and face his foe. “You can't go back down there.” Carlos told him. “We barely made it out alive!” “But he's still down the

The weeks after that were the best for Roman and his wife. Both went for another vacation to celebrate their freedom from the revenge hungry tyrant. The news that Damian was dead surfaced. The details about his death was kept hidden, but it was acknowledged that Roman and his team helped the police security take him down. This brought an unexpected adoration to Roman's name and the Walter family. “Even as a civilian without direct political office, Roman Walters is still able to serve the state.” The news would say. “What would happen if he was given a shot at the office?” Roman took these praises with some form of reservation. “Am I really worth it?” He asked himself. “The love and the attention.” His wife was thankfully always there to support him when he doubted himself. She recounted all the things he had done for the state. Even though most of them were for himself and his family like every other business man. He never compromised the interest of the masses. That was what di
