Chapter 220: June's Truth
Marshall's attention has been somewhat distracted by the thought of Michelle and where she could be.He wondered how much she had revealed to her ex-husband, especially during his arrest.The spy agents had kept a tail on Michael for several weeks. Their reports stated that Michelle hasn't been found anywhere close to him in several days.If she wasn't spilling secrets to Michael, then what else could she be doing?Has she always been a shadowed agent for Michael, pretending to be on their team just to harness information for him?Or could it be that she has started to subtly fall in love with her ex-husband? How possible could that be?Has she been trying to stay off the crossfire and live a calmer life far from Michael's wrath or his enemies' plot?Was Michelle keeping a low profile while scheming for the freedom of her mother from jail?Marshall couldn't help but ponder about all these and had found no concrete answer to his plunging questions.Michelle knew coming back to the sini
Chapter 219: Gerald's Questions
Miss June went to grab a cup of hot coffee from the kitchen, which was east of where they were.Marshall's mood remained complicated while his cheeks reeked of sinister scoffing.Gerald slowly kept thudding his left index finger on the chair he rested on. A thought came across his mind, and he'd want to share.June returned to the original spot and noticed both men were engrossed in clustered thoughts.She deliberately cleared her throat to jot them out from their heavy thoughts while they acknowledged her presence.One thing outstanding about June was her irresistible presence, which carried an attractive aura. Even in silence, you'd somehow noticed she was around or nearby.It wouldn't be a lie to admit that she loves attention and would somehow swift the course of attraction to hers.Marshall stared at Gerald and uttered a word. “I know you have something extra to say. We are all ears.”He had been working closely with Gerald for several months, against Michael, to understand how h
Chapter 218: June's Plot
Moses’s countenance brightened with Michael's aid on the herbal medicineWth his exit from the penthouse suite— he didn't know when exactly he'd resume domestic duties but hoped to be sooner.Immediately, Michael left to see Lord Eric, who should be waiting for his arrival.Michael stepped into the grand balcony, where Lord Eric, his long-time mentor and benefactor, sat with one of the finest wines produced by his winery company.The old man’s sharp blue eyes studied Michael's demeanor, a calm smirk wrapped on his lips.“My boy,” Lord Eric called out as usual while signaling for Michael to sit.“I assume you received the letter?”Michael paused for a moment with his eyelids slowly blinking before resting his waist on the sofa.Lord Eric's words came like a surprise, given the fact that he didn't know he already knew about the parcel.“Did any of my domestic staff members inform him already?” He mused in darting eye contact.He nodded at Lord Eric's question, tossing the parcel note o
Chapter 217: A Place In His Heart
Michael just showed Moses a glimpse of his battle in the past months with Gerald and Marshall.Outsiders wouldn't understand the battle that comes with greatness. It's easier for a successful figure to attract haters and enemies.Unexpectedly, that has become the story of Michael Scofield, the multi-talented Herbal Fortress.Faced with sworn enemies and frenemies who were vigorously bitter about his astonishing successes and would do anything to dim his light.Moses’s throat went dry in deep concern. Despite all the frontal cold wars, Michael still wore a confident demeanor, never giving up on his vision.A slight thought whispered in Moses's mind, and he quickly voiced it out without further procession.“Why not reveal the parcel threats to the public. They'll understand the intensity of the battle.”Moses uttered with obvious concern. Doing all he could to assist his boss.Michael calmly nodded and eased his cheeks with a gentle smile. He knew Moses’s intentions were pure and genuin
Chapter 216: Different Shades
Michael's lips chimed in with a warm smile. Both gently disentangled from the embrace.The last time he felt a similar heroic feeling was a couple of days back while with Scarlett.Thus far, he had heard the best words about himself from people he didn't expect would have such detailed facts about his life.He wouldn't pretend not to appreciate and love the feeling. However, shouldn't be too carried away given the pressing threats from his enemies.“Thank you for your words. They mean a lot.”Michael patted his shoulder while speaking and slightly dressed backward.For a swift moment, his mind tingled on the content of the parcel and didn't like that Gerald and Marshall already knew where he resided.His foes had been in hiding for several months, and the few times they were apprehended. The cops arrested them in several buildings.Technically, Michael didn't know where they were presently hiding, but Gerald and Marshall knew his resting abode.Moses, being sensitive, caught a glimpse
Chapter 215: A Heroic Feeling
Michael's question sent enlightenment to Moses’s consciousness. Finally, it dawned on him that his boss had been facing a series of sabotage.The staff members in the penthouse suite had always wondered how Michael exuded unwavering confidence and attitude despite the persistent battles against his reputation and the companies he managed.Hence, Moses understood the depth of his question and how dangerous it was for any of the staff members to be on his suspect list.Moses managed to clear his throat before attempting to respond. He temporarily thought less about his hospitalized mum.Michael kept a somewhat serious facial expression, anticipating a response from him. Somehow, his instincts whispered Moses wasn't on the suspect list.However, if he were innocent, he should at least have a tinge of response to his question. After all, he was one of his staff members and always at work unless during his off days.If something unpleasant was cooking up in his household, he ought to have
Chapter 214: Suspicion???
Moses was tugged in by gripping emotions; he sniffled hard due to the growing mucus in his nostrils.He had fought so hard to hold the growing tears— Michael's last words triggered it the more.His words were soothing, assuring, but had a surge of comfort in how it sounded.From how Moses perceived his words, he understood Michael had battled through tough combat right from inception.Michael was speaking just to make him feel better. His voice oozed with certainty about Moses’s mother getting better.How that would happen, the kitchen assistant didn't have a clue.“Thank you, Sir. Your words have lifted my spirit.”Moses’s words reeked of sincere appreciation as he tilted his head while speaking.Michael drew closer and nodded his head in alignment with his staff's subtle words.Silence flushed through the atmosphere. However, it was any kind of quietness but was in a loud silence form.So many words were inwardly uttered through the steady eye contact from the two men.Michael gave
Chapter 213: Moses's Plight
Joshua was one of the gatekeepers— however, Michael didn't notice his presence when he arrived at the penthouse suite.Michael observed further and realized Joshua delivered the parcel to Moses— one of the male kitchen assistants who possibly should be on duty.He carefully observed the countenance of other gatekeepers while Joshua was receiving the parcel to know if they should be suspected as well.If he turned a blind eye and not get to the root of the situation. More than just a parcel would find its way into his penthouse suite.The untampered security feeds made it possible for him to meticulously analyze the actions and inactions of all visible staff members who were on duty about thirty minutes before his arrival.Through the security camera— he monitored the delivery personnel and realized he walked into the estate with no form of mobility.If he had a vehicle or something moveable— Michael would have tracked the device with the help of Cole or Christine.“Moses didn't inform
Chapter 212: The Parcel
Later that evening, as Michael arrived at his penthouse suite, a single envelope was strategically placed on his desk.No trace of the sender nor was there any form of markings. Just the receiver’s name scrawled in black ink.Michael took seven steps towards the window to peel through for a while.He didn't notice any monitoring vehicle within his surroundings. He went back to the desk and tore the envelope open— he read the contents:“Your reign is temporary. The higher you climb, the harder you fall. Watch your back.”Michael chuckled, tightening the letter in his fist. He had faced worse and the sender should have known better.He had been fought with death threats, betrayal, deception—what was one more threat?But his instincts told him this was different. His enemies were growing desperate. Desperate men were dangerous no matter how many times they failed.His phone vibrated and the caller ID spelled Lord Eric's name. He suspected he should be calling to check up on him.He just
