Chapter 107 Meet Him
“Sir, we are ready when you are ready.” Adrian, one of Alexander Wraithford’s secretaries, bowed as he stepped into his office.The door closed softly behind him, sealing the quiet authority that always surrounded Alexander’s space.“Okay. Let’s get going then,” Alexander sounded. He rose, picked his three phones on the mahogany desk and stepped out of the office.His steps were steady, controlled. There was no hesitation in him, only calculation.Three days ago, he’d been talking with the land surveyor. In the Greenfield Nation, they knew it, Oakwood town was the major land that was fertile in crude oil. This was why many smaller oil companies were situated there.That single conversation had set everything in motion.He stepped into the sleek BMW taking him to the airport to which he’d fly to Oakwood, he pulled out his phone.“We are on the way now,” he texted.“That’s great!” Marshall replied instantly.“We will be expecting you. Please let us know the moment you land,” Marshall ad
Chapter 106 Meet Up With Alexander
“Now we fucking have a deal,” Marvellous smiled.The words hung in the air for a brief second, sealing everything that had just been said.He rose up after checking his phone.He’d get it. The alert. Two hundred thousand dollars.The thought alone steadied him.Getting back to his domain, Marvellous whistled.The sharp sound cut through the compound.Steps approached almost immediately.Men with bald heads stood at his front. They were all wearing white singlets.They formed a line without being told, their movements practiced, controlled.“Y’all,” he sounded, looking at each of them one after another.His gaze lingered just enough on every face, measuring, reminding them who stood before them.He began to pace around them slowly like a commander who was about to instruct his newly recruits.The silence thickened with every step he took.“We got a new gig,” his voice loud and clear.A few of them straightened even more.“Something different from what we are used to. But...” he paused
Chapter 105 Get Their Gigs
Dancio throbbed his hand on the table at the Man’s Love tavern, one of the most popular taverns in Oakwood. The low hum of conversations and the clinking of glasses filled the space, but his focus remained fixed.“You good?” he turned to the side, his voice low enough not to draw attention.Malico nodded as he gulped down from the glass, though his grip around it was tighter than necessary.Fifteen minutes ago, Dancio had allowed him, Malico, to follow him to meet Marvellous. It had not been an easy decision. Men like Marvellous did not tolerate surprises. Still, the deal was too big to risk mishandling.Twenty minutes later, they saw him. A man in casual jeans and a hoodie approached the tavern with measured steps.His hands were tucked into the hoodie as though he was cursed with leprosy and he didn’t want anyone to see it. But Dancio knew better. That was not shame. That was caution.“Here he comes,” Dancio sounded, leaning a bit closer to Malico, his eyes never leaving the entranc
Chapter 104 Team Up with Corrupt Rivals
Dancio rose up slowly. He paced around the room, each step measured, his mind clearly working through the weight of what he had just heard.“You were not careful enough Malico, this is why you meet yourself in this problem,” he sounded from the back as he continued to pace slowly. His finger rested against his lips like someone pressed with battling thoughts, calculating, weighing every possible outcome.Malico said nothing. He let the words land because deep down, he knew they were true.“But you are my person. You my man, you have been good to me. I cannot watch you and lose everything that you suffered for,” Dancio said, his voice firm now, decision already forming beneath it.That was the difference between them and the rest of the world. Loyalty.He walked towards the chair he was seated before, his steps slowing as though the plan was already arranging itself in his head. He stretched his hand.On the chair, he left his phone before he rose.He picked it up.“I tell you what…” h
Chapter 103 Dancio shocked
Being a businessman in Oakwood, there were not too many who knew about the new master of the Kingsley Estate.The man had risen too quietly, too strategically, like a shadow taking form only when it was already too late to stop it.And because Liam didn’t lay low, he was not known by his actual name, but by the name of the conglomerate he controls.A name that carried weight. A name that made powerful men pause.Malico nodded slowly, his fingers tightening slightly against the armrest. He understood now why Dancio didn’t know who Liam Ryder was.Unlike in Greenfield, where his name had made it to the news on controversies and almost everyone, if not all, had known who he was.Oakwood was different. Power moved in silence here.“Do you know the Sebastian Kingsley Estate?” Malico asked.“Of course. Who doesn’t know of the biggest conglomerate which the late richest man in the whole country, if not the world, created?” Dancio chuckled, though there was respect buried beneath the humor.“
Chapter 102 Malico to Oakwood
“Two shots of whisky now!”Malico tightened his fingers together as he spoke, the impatience in his tone cutting through the low hum of the bar. He sat on the high stool at the bartender’s desk, his posture rigid, his shoulders tense.“Okay,” the bartender said, looking straight at him, already turning to prepare the order.Malico bowed his head slightly, exhaling under his breath. He turned to the side, his gaze drifting without purpose.That was when he saw him.A man in a suit. His tie was loose and worn out, his hair messy like someone who had just come out of a heated argument with his wife. The frustration was still fresh on his face.Malico looked away almost immediately.Not his business.“Two shots,” the bartender said again, returning with the drinks.“There you go.” He slid two filled shots toward Malico.Malico did not hesitate. He grabbed one, then the other, and gulped them down in quick succession. The burn hit his throat, but he welcomed it. It distracted him, even if
