2025-05-17 09:42:11Meanwhile in the heavy armour-plated Mercedes Benz sat Betty Thomas and Jack Adams.
“So how is your little brother?”
“I hope the both of you got home safely after those men were taken care of?” Jack asked, sipping the champagne he had been offered.
“Yes, we got home safely, all thanks to you.” Emilia Williams said as she held out her hand and poked Jack Adams on his muscles.
“I'm really glad I could help the both of you that night.”
“Lord Lucas and his goons from the Red Orb group have been running this part of the city for a long time but sadly his reign of terror is almost about to end.”
“I can see that already, so back to why Mr Lee sent me to you.”
“You see Lady Beatrice Williams is my grandmother and she has this odd disease which has rejected all forms of medication.”
“Even the medications of Doctor Chong.”
Jack Adams immediately stopped drinking his champagne and stared askance at Emilia Williams.
“Did you just say, Doctor…Chong?” He asked, his face etched in shock and bewilderment.
“Yes, I just said…Doctor Chong, is there a problem with that?” Emilia asked, her gaze reeking with curiosity.
“How long has Doctor Chong been treating your grandmother?”
“Excuse me?!” Emilia Williams replied in shock.
“What I mean is how long has Doctor Chong been treating Lady Beatrice Williams, your grandmother?”
“Not for a very long time and why all these questions?”
“Have you in any way met this man or do you know him in any way?”
“Not at all, Ms Emilia, it's just the name just reminded me of someone, never mind Just tell me more about this strange illness of Lady Beatrice Williams.” Jack Adams said, taking another sip of his wine.
“I don't know much about this illness but I think it has a virus origin…at least that is what the doctors back at home said.”
The conversation continued and moments later, the convoy stopped at the gate and they entered into the Williams family mansion.
“Right this way, Mr Jack!”
“I just hope we are not too late for grandma's sake.” Emilia Williams said as she led the way.
The Williams family were so wealthy that they had their own family-personalised hospital inside their mansion.
“Hi Lord Williams, we are finally here,” Emilia said as she opened the last door and walked into the ward filled with doctors and nurses running around.
“Emilia, what the heck kept you so long?”
“Do you know what might have happened to your grandmother all this while since you and Mr Thwane were gone?”
“Did you find the man Mr Lee sent you to find?”
“Yes Grandpa, and he is even the man who saved us from the hands of the goons of Lord Lucas some days ago,” Emilia said, smiling as she pushed Jack Adams forward.
“Lord Williams, it's an honour to meet you.”
“Wait a minute, do I know you from anywhere before?” Lord Williams asked as he stared at a mark on Jack Adam's neck.
“I don't think so sir, I haven't met you before, can we please go over what happened to Lady Beatrice Williams?”
“Of course! But…before we proceed can I please see your medical license?”
“It's standard procedure if I'm to even allow you Lady Beatrice Williams.”
“Umh…I don't have any of those Lord Williams, but I assure you that I will try my best to see that Lady Beatrice is treated.”
“Liar!”
“Lord Williams, this guy is a fake doctor!”
“How can you even think of replacing us with someone you just found on the streets?!” Doctor Carlos, one of the doctors treating Lady Beatrice Williams immediately interjected.
“He is definitely quake! what kind of doctor goes to even treat a patient without his medical license?!” another doctor added from behind him.
“At least he isn't the one who has made my grandmother's health condition even more critical!”
“He was recommended by Mr Lee, the powerful and influential President of Titanium Valley Group.”
“Lord Williams, I really believe Mr Lee's words, if he says Jack Adams can fix grandma, why don't we give him a try?” Emilia said, staring at Lord Williams.
“Lord Williams, I really advise against this!”
“I will advise we wait for Doctor Alexander to arrive from overseas, I believe he will do a better job than this…mad man Emilia picked up from the streets!”
Taa! Taa!! Taa!!!
Lord Williams immediately delivered three deadly resounding slaps to the face of Doctor Carlos for insulting Jack Adams, his face turned red immediately.
“Watch your silly mouth!”
“It's your fault my wife is in a much more critical condition now!”
“I really wished I hadn't contacted you and your stupid hospital before now!”
“Plus the fact that you money lovers charged six million dollars in advance and yet you guys can't save my wife!”
“This man here was the one that saved the lives of Emilia and Clarke some days ago!”
“If you dare to make me angry, I will call the United Medical Association and have your stupid medical license removed!” Lord Williams said angrily.
“Mr Jack Adams, are you sure you can treat my wife?”
“I have to see her first, and also make sure that the Paris Polyphylla you are offering is…authentic.” Jack Adams immediately replied.
“You have nothing to worry about, we the Williams family control what and all that goes in and out of the pharmaceutical industry.”
“When I tell you the Paris polyphylla is authentic, then it is!”
Clap! Clap!! Clap!!!
Lord Williams immediately clapped and one of his guards walked over to his side with a briefcase.
“Open it!”
Inside was the rare and very costly plant, Paris Polyphylla.
“You see it, can you smell its authenticity?”
“Help me save my wife and I might even give you a truckload of this stuff.”
“Alright, where exactly is Lady Beatrice Williams?” Jack Adams asked.

Chapter103
Jack sat on the edge of his bed, eyes still glued to the news broadcast as the grainy footage of Crime Boss Wayne being swarmed by reporters played on repeat. The scene outside the airport terminal was chaotic. Cameramen shoved against one another, jostling for a better shot while bodyguards tried desperately to form a wall between their furious boss and the clamoring press.Reporters shouted questions,their voices overlapping like a crashing wave of confusion:“Boss Wayne, what do you have to say about your son’s arrest?”“Are the rumors true that you flew in to demand his release?”“Sir, did you know about your son's involvement in the Blue Heavens massacre?”Wayne didn’t say a word. His jaw was clenched so tightly that a vein in his temple throbbed. He moved like a storm cloaked in a tailored suit, his heavy black overcoat flowing behind him like smoke. Two of his bodyguards shoved aside the nearest reporters, nearly knocking a cameraman over as Wayne stormed toward a waiting lim
Chapter102
Inside the black SUV, Lord Leo sat behind the wheel, his grip on the steering slowly loosening as the chaos behind them began to settle. Beside him, Jack leaned his head against the window, breathing out softly, while Justin Bradley sat in the back seat, slouched, his eyes hollow from everything that had happened. From their vantage point atop a hill across the Wayne Mansion, they watched the flurry of police cars, flashing lights, and media vans swarm the property like flies to a carcass.Lord Leo glanced at Justin through the rearview mirror. “You alright back there?” He asked in a low voice.Justin slowly lifted his gaze and nodded weakly. “Yeah… I’m alright.” He said, though his voice didn’t carry conviction. He stared through the tinted glass at the mansion below. “Nike… he was just doing all this to make his father proud. He’s not this… monster. Not deep down. I know it.”Jack turned around in his seat and locked eyes with Justin. “As much as I hate to say this.” He bega
Chapter101
The dark corridors of the Wayne mansion echoed with hurried footsteps as Lord Leo, Jack, Justin, and the remaining police officers spread out, weapons drawn. Sweat beaded across everyone's brows as they scanned each corner and hallway. The tension hung in the air like fog.Suddenly, Nike Wayne’s voice boomed through the mansion’s speaker system, low and taunting.“You’re all going to die in here.”Everyone froze at a spot.The commander turned his head, his voice tight with rage. “How do you intend to do that, Wayne?”Nike’s mocking laugh echoed. “Oh, Commander... haven’t you figured it out yet? This isn’t just a mansion. It’s a cathedral of chaos,a building filled with booby traps. And guess what? I’ve already activated them.”Jack took a step forward, shouting toward the walls. “You don’t have to do this, Nike. Just give yourself up!”But Nike replied, dripping with sarcasm. “Didn’t I already tell you? Giving up isn’t an option.”Lord Leo, trying to reason with him, added.“Ther

In Jack's dream…Jack was sinking, his fingers reached out in the murky, dark water, stretching for the silhouettes of his family seated around the dinner table. One by one, they rose silently from their seats and began to walk away, their backs turned to him. Jack's voice cracked as he called after them, the words muffled and lost beneath the rushing sound of the water that was now filling the room. Plates, silverware, and glasses floated past him like forgotten memories. He tried to follow, swimming toward them with desperation churning in his chest.But they kept going,further and further.Then, a pale hand burst through the surface, grabbing his arm, yanking him upwards.In the Present…A cold splash of water hit Jack full in the face.He gasped violently, jerking upright with a cough. Water ran down his chin, soaking into his shirt. He blinked rapidly, his vision blurry, his surroundings coming into focus like a bad dream straightening into a worse reality.His eyes found Lord L
Chapter99
As Lord Leo, Jack, and Justin Bradley sat in the sleek black SUV, a deep silence hovered over them. The tension was thick,each man lost in his own thoughts, eyes focused on the looming Wayne mansion up ahead.Suddenly, Lord Leo leaned forward and reached beneath the passenger seat, pulling out a heavy black case. The metallic latches clicked open, and inside were two Desert Eagle pistols, polished and gleaming. Without a word, he handed one to Jack.Jack raised a brow and immediately shook his head. "No, we don’t need weapons for this. We’re here to talk.”Justin nodded in agreement, his voice strained. "Yeah, I mean,seriously? Guns? What are you, a police officer or something?"Lord Leo gave no answer, his expression was unreadable as his eyes remained fixed on Jack. The silence was answer enough."Fine." Jack grunted, throwing his hands up. "But I’m not carrying that. Give me a sword instead. You know I work better with blades."Lord Leo reached further into the box and retrieve
Chapter98
Lord Leo and Jack then bent down and carefully lifted the unconscious Justin Bradley from the cold, tiled floor of the mall. Jack grunted under the weight as they carried him out through the emergency exit, trying not to attract too much attention from the crowd still murmuring in confusion. The automatic doors hissed open as they stepped into the humid evening air, their destination clear.They popped open the sleek trunk of Lord Leo’s Lamborghini and gently laid Justin inside, his arms limp, his breathing shallow but steady. Jack closed the trunk, dusted his hands off, and exchanged a quick glance with Lord Leo.Both men climbed into the front seats of the Lamborghini, the engine roaring to life with a satisfying purr. The low hum of tires on asphalt echoed as they sped through the city streets.As the neon lights of Oxford Valley blurred past, Jack leaned back into his seat, his eyes shifting to Lord Leo. “So tell me.” He began, his voice low and curious.“How the hell are Justi
