The club struck one of his men nearby.Before any of them could fully comprehend what was going on, they were groaning and hunched over on the floor.The guard, still on his knees, gaped in shock at what had just happened before him.The three black-clad people… No, one of them was a woman.They all stood over the groaning men without breaking a sweat.He had never seen moves so smooth or fast before in his life.The female among them immediately rushed to Seraphina’s side. “Are you okay, Miss? I am so sorry we got here late.”“I am fine,” Seraphina said with a smile.

Chapter 202
Henry’s day started with his determination to tolerate Adrian until he could destroy him.Instead, he almost got destroyed himself. Mentally, socially and physically.The call he had received from Scott that morning didn’t turn out as expected.“Maybe young master wants to apologise for wrongly accusing me the other day. He might finally listen to my report about that bastard.”He had hoped as he hurried off to the location Scott had told him of.Of course, 'apology' was not in the young master’s dictionary.Still, a man could dream.

She pointed upwards. “God, of course,” she responded kindly.“Confess, dear. He forgives everyone.” “Con…” Henry remembered the cause of her assumption.“Mind your own business, old bat,” he snapped at her and wound down the window.He zoomed off immediately the lights changed.“How can people just assume things like this?!” he muttered in anger.Henry suddenly realised another problem.He could not take the car anywhere people knew him.What if they also assumed the

HOURS EARLIERAmanda was a strategist.She prided herself on sniffing out perfect opportunities and making them work to her advantage.The Cross brothers had ruined her life, but a chance meeting at a bar might just turn that around.The ‘opportunity’ was not looking so stable at the moment, though.He was currently glancing out of the window like he expected something to leap out of the darkness.Maybe he was running from something.Amanda had been creeped out by the graffiti earlier.But he had hastily said it was the work of bored teenagers.T

“Chairman, your plan really worked.”Excitement was evident in Edward’s countenance as he showed Adrian the report the next day.“In less than twenty-four hours, we already have more downloads than we did in weeks. Our website traffic has skyrocketed too. And some are even getting merch.”Adrian merely smiled as he scrolled through the data.The board page and international broadcast were already paying off. So far, only one gamer had signed up.Yet over a thousand people had already visited the website after the social media post, boosting traffic across Echelon’s apps and products.Adrian cou

“I think something is bothering him, sir.”“Apart from me?” Adrian looked up from the reports before him.He had been discussing business with Edward when he realised the man looked worried.It didn't take long to realise it was because of Scott.Edward looked sheepish as he shifted in his chair.“Chairman, young master has been difficult. Most people wouldn’t have tolerated him this long.”Adrian was surprised by the twinge of guilt he felt.‘Tolerate’ wasn’t exactly what he would call what he was doing with Scott.The man had don

One of them gave Scott a side-handed jab on his wrist.His hands slackened from the woman’s throat and the latter coughed violently as she struggled to draw in breath.Adrian was surprised to see that he was standing.His muscles were taut and his eyes bored into the screen until he saw the lady breathing almost normally again.That was when he sank back into his chair.“Maybe I did push him too far,” he admitted, even as he watched Edward step into view.The devastated look on the older man’s face pulled at Adrian.All of a sudden, he wasn’t so sure this was a good idea.

Lady Sage’s sign-up was like a magnet for many other gamers.By morning, twenty more gamers had signed up.Thirty-five of the fifty gamers’ slots were already gone. Adrian soon realised the logic behind the frenzy.“If Lady Sage could join, maybe Phoenix would too.”Every platform echoed the same sentiment. Many believed Phoenix might have been the one who convinced Lady Sage to join. And some seemed certain that if Phoenix could join, then maybe the company wasn’t just deceiving them with

“Did you see it?” Solana’s excited question was the first thing that greeted Adrian as soon as he got to work.“What exactly?” he responded with a smile as he nodded in greeting to the others.“Lady Sage’s sign-up. It’s all anyone is talking about. People actually believe us…I mean…you about Phantom now. Some even think Phoenix might come.” “Maybe they are right,” Adrian added with a shrug.“Oh boy. That will be so cool. I can brag to my friends that I handled the sound,” the audio engineer chipped in as he entered with his cup of latte.“Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. We still have a week to go,” Adrian said easily.“It’s not just about the sign-ups. Look.”

“Hi,” he said awkwardly, with a toothy smile.Adrian’s gaze simply remained steady on him.He shifted from foot to foot, then added hastily, “I just want to say that your idea for this event… is really amazeballs.”Adrian’s brows rose.Really? Amazeballs? Is this high school?He could see his cold silence was getting to the intern. A thin trickle of sweat slipped down Morrell’s temple.All eyes fixed on him. Even Solana paused with the mop to watch him. Still, Adrian almost admired his tenacity as h
