The same question played in the minds of the rest of the crowd.

Everyone watched as Jeremy went on his knees to apologise to Austin for being rude to him earlier. He couldn’t grasp, despite what he did Austin still saved his life.

“What can I offer you in return? As an appreciation for saving my life.” Jeremy abruptly asked. “How much do you want, name your price.”

Austin stiffened, money wasn’t his problem. He has much that they would imagine. He only chose to remain ordinary so as not to mix his life.

“Gold nor silver I want none, but keep to my words. There are many people out there who want whatever you have to give to me. Find them, show love to the public, and get healed.”

Jeremy listens to Austin like he is speaking in parables. He knew better than to utter a word. He had lived his life in pain and hatred. He knew it was time to start a new life.

Duke kept a downward gaze; not only had he been humiliated, but his ego had been scattered. The people who thought highly of him are

    “Let him speak for himself.” Inaki grinned widely.Zachary turned a cold glance at Inaki, “Why should he? He knows nothing about our trade. This is our fight, don’t get him involved.”“You don’t know him; ask him to tell you two years ago, Madrid. What happened,” Inaki said, cracking his knuckles “Tell him what you did.”“Who is he? And what did he do?”“Was he part of the Mafia? Why is Inaki forcing the young man to get involved.”“Inaki wants a simple fight, the man looks weak, and I am not sure he would stand a chance.”Murmurings continued as they spread like wildfire across the room.Austin stepped forward unflinch, one this was certain. He was going to end Inaki. He might have left the man in the previous fight, but this time. He wouldn’t allow Inaki to slip away.“What happened, Mr. Davis,” Zachary asked with curiosity.“There are some things that are supposed to be left untold.” He said, stopping beside Zachary, with his eyes fixed on Inaki. “He wants me to fight then so be i

    The two men failed to come to a conclusion, inaki was extremely frustrated. The old man wasn’t willing to drop the price for them to sell the deal.“I am giving you one last chance.” Zachary said, “Twenty-five per cent, and you get the green light to operate. Otherwise, we call it off, and we both go our separate ways.”Inaki stared at him, lip pressed into a thin bloodless line. His eyes were cold and calculating.“No deals,” Inaki said, “You will regret this.”Zachary gave him a cold, humourless laugh. “ I’ve regretted a lot of things, inaki. Trusting hotheads like you tops the list.”Inaki rose from his seat, his gaze turned red. He stepped away from the chair and made his way to the door; he paused and turned back with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes.“Happy birthday, don’t think you have won. I am coming back.”“Be careful, Inaki. Don’t try any tricks.” Zachary warned.“See you around,” Inaki said before walking out of the door.Zachary exhaled, rubbing his temples. He didn’t

    That same evening, Austin left his house, when he arrived at Prime Gold estate. He parked his car in the parking lot before stepping down.His eyes cautiously scanned the premises. This wasn’t just an event for an ordinary man; the celebration was for the most feared mafia boss in Auburn.At the parking lot were a series of luxurious cars. He couldn’t stop looking around.When he got to the entrance, he handed the invitation card to the men dressed in a black suit; the security men were all dressed in black. While the guests were neatly dressed in white suits.After the security guards were done scanning the invitation, they handed it back to him, and ushered him in with a warming smile.Austin didn’t hesitate to return the smile as he entered. As soon as he entered, he took the wine taking a sip as he glanced around. Standing at the far end of the room. He could see every movement.It was a night to celebrate the mafia boss.Suddenly, an unexpected figure came forth. He glared at Au

    Ruddy nodded, “Thank you, Mr. Davis.”Monica couldn’t stand the anger that was simmering within her. So she angrily left without taking a glance at Gerald.It hurt her so much. It was unbelievable how everything had turned against her so quickly.Ruddy stepped forward, with a smile on his lip. He could tell Austin wasn’t upset with him; if not, he wouldn’t have forgiven himself.He bowed again, then instructed his men to take Gerald to any nearby hospital.Mr. Davis, there is a party this weekend at the mansion. It’s my boss’s Zachary birthday party. I would like to invite you; I will send an invitation card later to you.” He continued, “I will be more than excited if you accept our invitation.”Austin nodded, “Alright, I will be waiting.”The crowd was already stunned by everything they had witnessed so far.They watched Ruddy’s men carried Gerald out of the building. Just as they left, Everyone’s faces lit in relief. Hannah, who had been mute all this while, spoke out. “Why did yo

    Austin stood at the entrance with a plain expression, his gaze moved from left to right.Leaving everyone in confusion. They kept wondering who he was and why he commanded such authority. Or was it just someone who had another death wish?Autin turned to Monica, her face pale and her body trembling slightly. He had seen what happened a while ago when it started. He was at the entrance, waiting for Hannah. When he spotted the incident.He knew better than to interfere in such cases than had nothing to do with him. He watched how Gerald kept ranting despite his men being taken down.However, Austin chose not to utter a word. But he couldn’t stand to see Ruddy intimidate her. So he stepped in.Ruddy eyes softened when he spotted the great healer; his once arrogant and unfriendly demeanour shifted to polite and calm.He tilted his head slightly, leaving everyone stunned.Those who knew Ruddy were shocked.Gasps spread like wildfire across the room.Monica narrowed her eyes at Austin,

    “I am calling my father, something needs to be done.” He replied. “He has many connections,”Ruddy stood firm, with an unimpressive expression. “Tell whoever you are calling that you have offended Ruddy Thomson, and I will not let you go except you hand the lady over to me.” Gerald glared at him coldly and moved back a bit when the line connected. “What is it? Has she accepted your proposal?” A deep voice on the other side of the line spoke out.“No, father. Something came up; a young man ruined the moment, and he claimed his name was Ruddy Thomson. He had insisted that I hand over Monica to him or he might not allow me to leave. Even threatened to deal with me, his men took down six of our men.” He continued. “Dad, I want you to send some men over to the restaurant this moment; we need to bring this man down so he knows we are the Benson’s.”There was a short pause over the line. “Who do you say he is?” Mr. Benson asked.“Ruddy Thomson.”A loud groan left Mr. Benson’s mouth. “What
