Chapter 66: Quiet time
Peace? It really wasn't in Richard's dictionary the moment he tried to outsmart Thomas Bishop. The house was silent again, but Richard’s mind wasn’t. His head felt heavy, his chest tight. He sat down on the couch, elbows on his knees, and stared at the floor.Sarah’s threat rang in his ears as he tried to think.He ran his fingers through his hair and sighed. “What am I doing?” he muttered to himself.The phone on the table buzzed again, flashing Dianne’s name. He stared at it but didn’t touch it. A few seconds later, it stopped. Then it rang again; this time it was Tony.He picked it up.“Boss, bad time?” Tony’s voice came through, calm but alert.“Go on, Tony,” Richard said tiredly.“I got more info about Bishop. You were right. He’s been moving weapons through the docks. I think he’s planning something big. Should I move in?”Richard rubbed his face. “Not yet. Keep your eyes on him. I need to handle something first.”“Got it. But boss…” Tony paused. “You sound off. Are you alrigh
Chapter 65 :Dianne Warren versus Sarah Robertson
Richard got to the door and was surprised to see the two women who held a special post in his life standing at his doorpost. He was surprised and at the same time was not sure of what to do. He knew he could not be biased to either of them. “You didn't tell me you were coming.” Richard said bluntly, staring at their faces. “I called you, but you were not picking up my calls, Richard. Are you avoiding me?” Dianne asked, her eyebrows furrowed a bit. Sarah crossed her arms and gave Dianne a sharp look. “Oh, so you came here too?” she asked, her voice dripping with irritation.Dianne’s eyes narrowed. “I could ask you the same question. What are you doing here, Sarah? Last I checked, you had your own life, your space.” Richard’s eyes darted between them. He could already feel the tension and the unspoken words between the trio. “Can we not do this at the door?” he said calmly. “Come inside, both of you.”They both stepped in, but neither was willing to back down. Sarah brushed past D
Chapter 64: Truth that seems too hard
Reality sets in for Richard. All thanks to the system. He knew who he was, and he knew who he had to face to settle the scores. He picked up his phone on the large glass table that reflected the chandelier in his sitting room.“What do you have for me, Tony?” he said, sipping the juice in his hands. “You were right, boss. Bishop is into illegal trades. All we need to do is make sure we catch him in the act. Should we go ahead with the plan?” *[A day before] Richard, Tony, and Troy. All sat in his large dining room planning. “Do you think he suspects anything?” he asked, staring at Tony. Tony relaxed his back, his eyes focused on Richard. “No, he didn't know the company is linked to you.” “Good. I don't want you to go using the company’s car. That is where you come in, Troy. I need you now.” Richard said, tapping the table gently. “Anything you say, boss. What do I need to do?” Richard paused for a brief moment. He stood up as he walked towards the window of his house. His ga
Chapter 63; A man to reckon with
Gerald and Kathleen sat frozen in front of the TV, their faces pale as the video of Richard’s fight with Viktor Zilenski played again and again on every news channel. The scene was everywhere.“This… this can’t be real,” Gerald whispered, his hand trembling as he reached for the remote. “He can fight too?” he asked with a shaky breath. His gaze locked on Kathleen, who was equally as shocked as her husband.Kathleen crossed her arms and shook her head hard. “It’s fake. It has to be fake. Someone edited it. Richard isn’t that strong. He was a nobody!”Margaret, who had rushed into the room a few minutes ago, slapped her tablet on the table. “It’s not fake, Kath. This video is trending everywhere. Even the business magazine covered it. They’re calling him the Silent Billionaire Fighter.”Gerald leaned back in his chair, rubbing his forehead. “Silent Billionaire Fighter? Are you hearing this, Kathleen? The boy we threw out of our house?”Kathleen rolled her eyes. “Don’t be dramatic, Geral
Chapter 62: The news of the bomb
The news of Richard escaping death was all over the social plug. Many people who didn't know who he was were slowly getting to know who Richard Tucker was. To some, he was the supposed son-in-law of the Warren family, while to some, he was the rich man who bought the most expensive Phantom car after Sarah Robertson. That was not the only gist, though. The news of Richard humiliating a popular drug baron, Viktor Zilenski, was also joined. “Who is Richard Tucker?” That was the headline of all news. That morning, Richard's phone won't stop ringing. There were lots of reporters who wanted an exclusive with him. But Richard knew Thomas Bishop was not showing him all his cards. He was hiding behind the mask, and the thought of it made his stomach churn. Things would have been better if Viktor Zilenski had answered his question right in the open. He would have been untouchable for Thomas, but right now, Richard knew he was vulnerable to any attacks. He ran his hands through his hair
