Doctor Magnus narrowed his eyes, then slowly scanned his environment before he moved closer to Mia."This was all a childish bet and given the situation my son is right now, I think it's useless for us to keep discussing about it.""Did you just listen to yourself speak, you were the one that had made the bet. So why should I stop because your son failed to understand his limit?"Mia asked. Her voice had gone higher than she had expected and suddenly it had drawn more attention to them than she had anticipated."And if I insist that I won't agree to your bet or whatever it is you call it, it's not like there is anything that you can do about it."He bragged hoping that he would be able to get her off his skin this way but she chuckled."Don't push it Magnus. It's not going to end well for you.""Is that a threat, I understand that your father is powerful…..""Oh please leave my father out of this," Mia cut him off even before he was done speaking, then she brought out her phone."I do

Just as Doctor Magnus made to enter the stage the security immediately grabbed him and held him tightly. Yet he was not ready to give up and kept struggling with every ounce of strength left inside him.But no matter how much he struggled he could not break free from their grip. Every camera and media outlet had circled them with cameras flickering at his face.Mark seeing the commotion that was happening used the last ounce of strength he had and gulped the potion Daniel had secretly given him.Right at that moment he felt life enter his body again with renewed strength. As he rose to his feet his eyes met with Daniel's. He did not say a word but his eyes carried enough gratitude in them to say everything.While Magnus was still being held he stood there and watched his son being carried out of the arena. His chest had tightened with deep pain. He was fighting back tears yet the pain was clearly visible on his face.They had not just lost the competition but his son who meant everyth

At this point Jason knew he could have moved to the other side of the stage and simply waited for the other two to finish or die. Either way he was waiting to be declared the winner.Yet he did not leave. He stood there and continued to taunt Daniel. He was clearly enjoying every moment of it. Mark on the other hand was slowly losing his fight but forcing himself to remain calm.Jason felt he had enjoyed enough entertainment and rose to his feet ready to leave. But suddenly his feet went numb and his eyes blurry. He staggered and staggered until he found his way back to his seat.The crowd roared at that moment. Magnus did not even realize when he jerked to his feet. Every ounce of calmness inside him had disappeared instantly.Daniel turned to look at Jason. Even though his own lips were still slightly blue there was a smile on his face."So you really thought that purple substance in that glass was the cure."It was not quite a question given that he backed it up with a loud chuckle

Daniel had shut out every single noise around him. He knew he did not have much time left and he had predicted that even before he injected himself with the serum.But this time the symptoms were coming at him in full force. His hands had begun to tremble and he was doing everything in his power to stay steady because if he ended up spilling the potion he was certain that his legs could not carry him back to the laboratory again.But it was not just his hands trembling. His breathing had become shallow.Jason on the other hand had also started noticing symptoms in his own body. That seemed to have given him more clarity on what the poison was so he immediately began creating his potion.Mark was sweating profusely and regretting his decision. He was the only son of his family. He knew now that he should not have continued with the challenge but he also knew that dwelling on regret was only going to make things worse for him.So he was working as fast as he could even though he had no

Even as the first contestant, a girl in her twenties, walked out of the arena everyone applauded her. As if that was not enough others followed until there were just three people left.It was Jason, Mark, a boy from a very reputable university whose parents had been outside the country since he was born. He had returned home only to study and had been the best in his class. Everyone was looking up to him and failing was the one thing he could not afford to do.The last person was Daniel who sat very calmly like he had not heard a single word that had been said over the microphone and had not watched most of the others leave.For Daniel it was far better to lose his life here than to face whatever was going to happen if he failed this competition."Since the three of you have decided to proceed with the competition then I guess we can finally begin."Doctor Marshal spoke and then turned to the security men who had been standing around the competitors for a while. They placed a file in

As soon as Jason left the stage he went straight to his hotel room with his security detail following behind at a respectful distance.Once he was alone inside the room he slammed the door hard and drove his fist into the wall."F*ck." He cursed. The color slowly drained from his face. As if that was not enough he grabbed the bottle of wine on the table and smashed it on the ground.But even that did not give him the satisfaction he needed. If anything it only fueled the anger burning inside him further."How could this happen. This has never happened before." He cried out. His chest was so heavy that the room had begun to feel small and suffocating.Just then the door swung open without a knock and Magnus stepped in. He had come intending to scold him but seeing the mess inside he quickly reconsidered.Magnus sat down slowly and let his son take out his anger for a while before he spoke."What exactly happened. You never make mistakes. No one from the Watson family does.""I do not k
