Kai was absolutely stunned, he had no idea what was happening and who this man that was calling himself his grandfather was.

“I’ve been…” The old man’s words got stuck in his throat when his gaze fell upon Kai’s blood-covered body, his teeth gritted in anger and his expression twisted with fury.

He was going to ask Kai who did this to him but he scanned the area and was immediately able to deduce that the gang members were the ones responsible for attacking Kai.

He was a ball of pure anger, rage pulsed through his veins and his blood quickened with the raw anger that shot through him.

There’s no way he’s going to let a bunch of thugs go after doing this to his grandson.

With a wave of his hand, the old man signaled his bodyguards, who swiftly surrounded the gang members.

The gang members were trembling in fear, they knew really well that they dared not resist or run away. When Jake had hired them, he didn’t tell them that Kai was the grandson of a powerful person.

Their legs shook in fear and they all swallowed hard as they waited for the fate that awaited them. The old man and the men in black were too scary and well-trained for a small gang of thugs.

The men in black launched into a ruthless assault, mercilessly beating the gang members. Their screams of agony resonated through the air and their throes of pain were vivid.

They stood no chance whatsoever against the assaults, they couldn’t even defend themselves and all they could do was cry and beg for mercy.

“I’m. We—” Kai collapsed on the ground, he was unable to remain standing and the feeling of weakness that took over him was overwhelming, his heart pounded really hard against his chest.

He closed his eyes and waited for what was going to happen next but despite the pain and weakness he was feeling, he also sensed an unfamiliar force slowly restoring his strength.

The pain, fatigue and weakness he felt slowly started to fade away and minutes later, the gang leader, bruised and battered, was dragged before Kai, his face swollen beyond recognition.

The thug was shaking, fear, stark and vivid shone in his eyes while Kai stood high above him, his presence accompanied by a palpable sense of raw power.

Kai gave off an intimidating, merciless aura. His energy was dark, intense and utterly ruthless and even though he hadn’t done anything to the thug, the thug was already yielding to the immense power.

“Who sent you to kill me?” Kai sneered, his aura was one of unrelenting ferocity, exuding a sense of raw intimidating energy and the bruised Thug only trembled.

“Was it Jake Benson?!” Kai demanded, emanating an aura of unyielding strength and dominance, the air around him was so different that even the thug leader couldn’t take it anymore.

“I’m sorry! I’m so sorry, please spare me and I promise that our path will never cross.” The thug bowed his head to Kai, barely able to speak as he pleaded, his words falling out of his mouth as if he was eating something really hot.

“Please forgive me!” He pleaded but Kai’s eyes had already turned red in anger, “It was Jake, He sent us to silence you and told us that you were weak.”

“Jake Benson was the one who told us that you were getting in his way and we should take you out,” The thug leader confessed, “Spare me, please.” He quickly added, not daring to look Kai in the eyes.

Kai trembled with rage, anger rising in him like a tide; he went cold with fury and breathless with utter rage that almost pushed him to the edge.

All he could think about at the moment was how to rest not just these thugs but also the Benson family, a lesson that they wouldn’t forget for as long as they lived.

The old man, however, remained impassive, his eyes devoid of sympathy as he glanced down at the gang members.

He felt nothing but hatred for them, how dare they try to hurt his grandson. His expression was cold, his glare was so piercing that the thugs could feel it.

“You think you can touch my grandson and get away with it?” The man said coldly, he didn’t lose composure or act out of anger as a small, wicked smile that sent chills down the spine of the gang took over his mouth.

With a snap of his finger, the men in black assembled behind him while one of them hurriedly came to stand beside him.

“Get rid of all of them and make their deaths look like an accident.” The old man said coldly without caring.

The thugs, when they heard this, all fell to their knees at once. None of them wanted to die, they regretted ever crossing paths with Kai and even hated the Bensons.

“Please don’t do this,” the leader begged as he kept hitting his head on the ground to atone for his mistake, “I’ll do anything you want, anything, I don’t want to die.”

“We will leave the country, you’d never see us again, please spare us. We’ll also make sure to cut ties with the Bensons, we’ll go off the radar.”

The gang members begged for their lives but the one man’s mind had been made up already and nothing could shake the decision he had made.

While the gangsters begged for their lives, Kai was left in awe and shock by the old man’s ruthless nature, even his eyes were dark and conveyed nothing.

Kai could tell that this man who calls himself his grandfather was not just an important person but also a very powerful man, even more powerful than the Benson’s.

He radiated an energy that made it clear that whenever he walked into a noisy room, the room went silent and everyone stood up for him.

“Let’s pick up where we left off.” The old man said, his expression softening at once as he turned to look at Kai.

There was a look of calmness, adoration and gladness in the old man’s eyes. Looking at Kai caused his cold demeanor to melt into one of quiet excitement.

“I— I still can’t believe my eyes, you really are alive.” The old man said in a calm, yet emotional voice. His eyes also glistened with the tears of joy that he was desperately holding back.

He had come face to face with his grandson after years upon years of searching all over for him.

“My name is Fabio Grant, I am your grandfather, and as surprising as this next information might seem, you, Kai, are the sole heir to the Grant family’s vast fortune.”

    “I had no idea that much time had passed.” Kai said to himself as he got to his room, he had left before Catherine even woke up, and he hated himself because he knew that she must have been worried about him.Taking a deep breath, he opened the door and stepped into the room with an apology in his mind. He was going to apologize to her and he hoped that she would accept his apology.He had gotten so engrossed in the fight that he didn’t realize just how much time had passed, and if Teresa hadn’t stepped in, there was a big chance that he would have delayed all of them.Before leaving the bed this morning, he had made a promise to himself not to worry them or even cause them any slight inconvenience but he had been really wrong.When he stepped into the room, Kai felt as though the air had been completely knocked out of his lungs as he stared at the gorgeous woman that stood in front of me.“Oh… my… god.” He had breathed as he took in the image of her, relief washing over him. He was g

    Lorenzo and Atticus could only watch as the fight between Zarus and Kai grew even more intense, the floor looked as though it was going to cave in, but it didn’t, and both Kai and Zarus looked like they were having fun.“Wow. You really are a completely different person if you’re fighting with some enthusiasm.” Kai said amidst the clanging of swords that had suddenly appeared in both their hands.Zarus didn’t say anything as he charged at Kai, who side stepped and tried to knock the sword right out of Zarus’ hands, but Zarus was quicker and he had Kai on the floor with his chest pressed to the ground.“And you don’t look like you’ve gotten any stronger.” Zarus said, and while Kai was breathing heavily, Zarus’ heart rate was normal, earning a scowl from Lorenzo.Zarus extended his hand towards Kai who took it as Zarus pulled him up. There was a little part of him that felt frustrated, the part that grew stronger because of the people that he wanted to defeat.But, during the course of

    “How long do we have until we start getting ready?” Catherine asked Teresa who checked the time on the tablet she had with her.This morning when Catherine had woken up, she had been Kai, and that as she was about to step out to look for him, Teresa was already at the door and she was about to knock when Catherine opened it.“There is still time for the boys, but I don’t think we have much time like that.” Teresa responded, and when Catherine raised an eyebrow, she responded more precisely. “Four more hours.”Catherine sighed, she felt her stomach rumble and the urge to barf was suddenly so overwhelming that she had to race to the bathroom to let it all out, Teresa following right behind her.Teresa helped hold her hair up, and when Catherine was done, they both walked back to the bedroom. “Are you sure you’ll be okay to go for this?” She asked, and Catherine nodded.“I’m fine,” Catherine said with a smile, today was the day that she would eventually tell Kai that she was pregnant and

    Lorenzo snarled at Zarus, who then pretended he couldn’t see that Lorenzo was angry as he continued talking. “So, while I’m here to help, I wouldn’t bank on my help if I were you.” Zarus added.”Well, unless for all of your big talks and the stupid show-offs, you’re nothing but weak pricks.” He added, and Kai sighed again, tired of how things were going.“Zarus—”“You know, I really wouldn’t interfere because trust me, I don’t care for strategic meetings or whatever.” Shadow cut in before Kai could finish talking. “But you’ve been nothing but disrespectful since you showed up at our door.” He scoffed.“And seeing as you would have nowhere else to go because, I’m guessing, if you don’t complete the mission your master entrusted you with then he wouldn’t let you go back home.” Shadow continued and everywhere fell silent.Shadow never really talked, and even though he was starting to contribute in meetings, this was still the most he had said to a stranger in one day considering the fact

    “Can you guys stop coming up with a word for everything?” Catherine, who was already almost at her limit, blurted out as she looked from Kai to Zarus, and then back at Kai.“What is she talking about?” Zarus asked, pointing at Catherine while keeping his gaze on Kai. “She doesn’t know something’s gonna happen tomorrow, at your oh so big event?” He asked and Kai sighed.“Of course I know something is going to happen, I got the sign a while ago, probably before you even know and—” Zarus’ scoff caused her to stop talking as she took in a few breaths.This stranger had barely been around for five minutes and he was already getting on her last nerve, Catherine clenched and unclenched her fist as she tried to keep calm.If she could, she would have given Lorenzo the order he was waiting for; kill the prick, but after hearing a few things about who Zarus was, she knew that the man probably couldn’t die, but she wanted to get rid of him.Also, after watching Atticus and Fabio with him, she wa

    The maid stepped aside as soon as Kai got to the door, and Kai could see Zarus’ irritation evident in the way he glared at him, but Kai was most excited to see him. He didn’t think that he was actually going to come, when he’d heard Zane say that he, Zane, needed Zarus to be in the human world, Kai had wanted to ask if Zarus was going to come with him, but when he woke up without Zarus, he’d thought that Zane had meant after the charity auction. “What are you doing here?” Kai asked, the question directed at Zarus before he turned to the maid. “Thank you, you can go do other things, I’ll take care of this.” He said to the maid. Without any other word or any hesitation at all, the maid bowed her head lightly and left Kai alone with Zarus who looked like he needed really long hours of sleep. “The air here is so fucking impure, I felt like I was going to barf just trying to make my fucking way to this place, and this world smells like shit too.” Zarus grunted as Kai ushered him in.
