2025-05-17 09:35:26Just as he left, he immediately opened the door picked up the bucket and mop and stared one more thing at Betty Thomas before leaving.
“I really should have listened to Scott Benjamin, all these ladies are not worth it.”
Jack Adams muttered to himself as he walked out the front door and towards the back of the building, still carrying the bucket and mop.
“Give me that!”
“Stop hurting him, he is just a child!”
“You both are coming with us, my boss will be happy to see you tonight!”
“Let go of me!”
“Stop hurting my sister!”
Jack Adams immediately started hearing voices from behind the alley.
He immediately stared at his watch, the time was 6 O'clock in the evening but the day was still bright.
Just as Jack Adams walked a bit closer to assess the situation he immediately spotted some men assaulting a lady and a boy.
“Hey! Stop that right now and let the lady go!” Jack Adams spoke as he walked towards the men with his hands in his pocket.
“Well, well, well!”
“Who do we have here?!”
“My advice punk is that you get your sorry a** out of this place!”
“This is a private business, this lady owes us and my boss wants her tonight!”
“And the boy too, is he owing you and your stupid boss too?” Jack Adams asked, his hands still in his pocket as he addressed the situation.
If there is one thing he learnt from his dad Mr James was never to hurt a lady or stand down whenever a lady is being hurt.
“This guy is really funny, what part of get lost don't you understand?!”
“This is Lord Lucas's territory and this case is his to handle, and we really don't want to hurt you!”
“Hurt me, the fifteen of you really think you can hurt me?”
“I really don't believe that and I don't care if this territory belongs to your mother or Lord Losers!” Jack Adam's voice was laced with sarcasm as he continued.
“I want you to unhand that lady immediately and let the boy go now!”
Jack Adams' voice was loud and roared like thunder causing the men to shudder backwards in shock and trepidation.
The leader of the henchmen who was holding the little boy immediately left him and pushed him over to one of his men.
Grabbing an iron baseball bat from the back of the truck, he walked slowly towards Jack Adams.
“Hey pal, we don't know you and you don't know us, this is your last warning!”
“Back away slowly…or you will be inviting the deadly wrath of Lord Lucas and that of the Red Orb group upon not just yourself but your loved ones!”
“Back away pal, go home now and be with your wife and kids if you have any…”
“Go home and pretend all this didn't happen!”
“Load Emilia Williams and her brother Clarke Williams into the van, we can't afford to keep Lord Lucas waiting at all!”
The leader of the henchmen said as he swung the iron baseball bat towards Jack Adams.
“Help me!”
“Please help me!”
Emilia Williams and her little brother, Clarke Williams cried out immediately as the henchmen pushed them towards the van.
“Let them go this minute!”
“I'm warning you, let them go or…”
“Or what?!” The leader of the henchmen yelled in anger as he lunged at Jack Adams with the iron baseball bat.
Just as the baseball bat was about to make contact with Jack Adam's face, he maneuvered and grabbed the arm of the henchman.
With a loud crack, Jack Adams broke the arm of the leader of the henchmen.
“Ahhh!”
“Ahhh! My arm!”
“What are you all waiting for, attack this animal and crush his bones!”
The leader of the henchmen whose name was Kyle Rick yelled out immediately to his men as he lay helplessly on the floor.
Blood gushed out from his arm as Jack Adams had shown no mercy while breaking his arm.
“Do you guys really want to end like him?”
Jack Adams asked coldly as he armed himself with the Iron baseball bat and stood against fourteen goons from the Red Orb crime ring.
“You are a dead meat!”
“How dare you interfere with Lord Lucas's business?!”
“Are you really having a death wish?!”
“You can't come here and mess around with us, especially not in Lord Lucas's territory!”
“This is your last warning punk, if you stand down we promise to not report this to Lord Lucas!”
“Just hand over the Iron baseball bat and go on your knees!”
One of the henchmen, the second in command to the one on the floor, tried to reason with Jack Adams.
“There is no need for this fake truce you are calling right now, I just want you to release the lady and the little boy!”
“You guys aren't leaving him in one piece with any of them!” Jack Adams spoke with much anger in his voice as he spat on the floor before the henchmen.
“I can really see that you are prepared to die today!”
“So be it!”
The henchman immediately pulled out a sharp machete from inside his coat and they all attacked Jack Adams all at once.
The fight didn't last for three minutes as Jack Adams disarmed the whole of the henchmen and had them all beaten to stupor.
“Help me, Kyle, help me!”
One of the henchmen whose leg was broken into two with just a single kick from Jack Adams crawled towards Kyle Rick, their leader who was still on the floor.
“Who…who are you!” Kyle Rick asked, shivering in fear and anxiety.
The floor was littered with the bodies of his men, some had their heads bleeding profusely, and some had their bones broken and crushed to smithereens.
“I'm your worst nightmare!”
“Wait, don't kill me, I have money, I have anything you want, please don't kill me, and please don't take the Lady and the little boy!”
“Lord Lucas will kill us all if we don't return with them, we have been tracking Emilia Williams and Clarke Williams for days now…please!” The henchman begged.
“Well that's not my problem, I warned you before and you losers didn't listen.”
“I will let you go but you are not leaving with the lady and the little boy!”
“Stand up, take your men, I don't care how you carry them, especially those who can't walk again, leave this place and never return!”
“You don't understand, Lord Lucas will…”
“I don't care! Just leave!”
Immediately Kyle Rick stood up, grabbed his henchmen and raced into their vans.
“You will definitely regret this decision of yours boy!”
“No one messes with Lord Lucas or the Red Orb group and goes free, not even the elite of the elites in this city!”
Kyle Rick said angrily before taking a picture of Jack Adams with his smartphone.
“You just bought yourself a one-way ticket to doomsville son!”
“Let's go!”
The goon in front of the vehicle immediately zoomed off leaving behind the lady, the little boy and Jack Adams.
“What's your name and what does the Red Orb group want with you and your brother?” Jack Adams asked, his voice laced with curiosity.

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

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
