Michael Scofield Has Returned! Chapter 77: “I'm Fucked!!!”
Michael was swift with his demanding tone, not giving Jake enough time to cook up another set of defensive mechanisms.He knew if given a few moments of introspectiveness, Jake would most likely discover a new route of escaping the prevailing circumstance.Morris and his subordinates folded their arms while stealing spiteful glares at him.“Why the efforts to destroy my image? Where did you get those ridiculous account details from?”“Boss, I know what Morris is doing right now. Please don't fall for it. Anyone could manufacture such purported files as evidence.”Despite Michael's threatening tone, Jake managed to find defensive words to keep his guard afloat.Technically, Morris presenting a mere file that had fraudulent account details wouldn't be enough to back up his heavy accusations against Jake.There was no evident connection with the alleged personnel and, hence, could be argued or declared inconsequential.Jake swiftly realized that and used that as a stance to defend himsel
Michael Scofield Has Returned! Chapter 78: The Humiliation Parade!!!
Michael, Sheraton, and Morris exchange bewildered eye contact and gradually wear back a mocking outlook.Apparently, that would be the first time they'd hear the smooth talker admit to being caught about something.Jake's indictment had been ongoing for hours, and despite Michael and Morris's audacious aura, he always had his ways with words, but that seemed to have changed with his last affirmative expression: ‘I’m Fucked!’His cohorts also exchanged gripping glances that etched profound shock and defeat— it was looking like the end of the road for them all.“Haha! You're fucked? Not yet Jake, we just got started!”“I thought you acclaimed to have been innocent and the CEO of Afrik left his daily endeavors to lay ridiculous accusations against you. Huh?”The goddess of beauty was the first person to taunt him after his last expression.Michael and others were busy laughing so hard that she had the chance to embarrass the smooth talker further.“Ohh, you've suddenly gone silent, you'r
Michael Scofield Has Returned! Chapter 79: John's Loose Tongue!!!
Michael winked at Morris, who understood the coded language and exited the office after a few moments of belittling glances and glares at Jake and his disoriented cohorts. The conversation that would soon be held was much critical and sensitive and Morris wasn't a staff but a client and shouldn't know the full shit going on in Eric Cottage Winery Enterprise. Underneath the exit-coded sign was an agreement that was already in motion. Michael's phone chimed, and it was from Lord Eric Sanchez, who couldn't help but check up on his boy. Since he gave Michael a new life in his abode, they hadn't stayed more than twenty hours within two days without their eyes meeting. He'd have left his mansion already to the winery company to affirm if Michael was truly present in the office like Sheraton confirmed earlier when he called in. Michael quickly indulged Lord Eric in a quick text message to help have his nerves settled and worry less about him. “You had enough time to construct th
Michael Scofield Has Returned! Chapter 80: “I Wouldn't Fall Alone”
Michael Scofield’s words were wrapped in diplomacy in order to catch a glimpse of other participants involved in illegal transactions.He believed if he could lay hands on one of the perpetrators to find others wouldn't be much of a headache.The bigger question is whether Jake and his cohorts would decide to solely bear the consequences and save others who could be involved.For some special reasons, Michael believed the hammer hadn't completely hit the nail.He somehow believed there would be someone or others involved that hasn't been exposed yet and he was bent on making the twisted adventure much simpler.The devastated apprehended staff were still plunged to the ground while they exchanged pitiful eye contact among themselves.They were deciding on how to reply to the COO’s question while using winks and brow wiggles to communicate codedly.“The choice is yours! Would you want to fall alone or would you decide to have guilty companies beside y'all while falling?”Michael began o
Michael Scofield Has Returned! Chapter 81: A Loose Bird Singing Lilian’s Name!!!
Jake's vehement words plunged profound silence into the atmosphere and had all eyes profusely glancing at themselves.He didn't sputter, nor was there any form of stutter while he was making further revelation about the next partner in the decorated shady business.Michael Scofield couldn't help but blink his eyelids at Sheraton, who had resumed with her video recordings a while ago before Jake made the last expression.From her facial expression, it was crystal clear that her nerves were enmeshed in shocked surprise.The goddess of beauty couldn't have guessed the name that Jake mentioned even if a sectorial investigation had been conducted.Jake had his face lowered, his heart banging in frustration, he knew it was a matter of time for the full consequences of his ill actions to catch up with him.He wasn't ready to foster any goddam legacy that was initiated by the ex-COO— if he'd fall then others must fall alongside him.Michael had over twenty seconds to digest Jake's confession
Michael Scofield Has Returned! Chapter 82: Jake's World Against Hers!!!
Sheraton temporarily paused the video recordings and handed her device over to Michael Scofield with an approachable demeanor.She wanted to communicate with the Marketing department through the configured intercom but the COO wiggled at her to apply a different approach.A smidge of further information etched in Michael's mind and he felt calling to inform Lilian could be a wrong move.If she was guilty, as Jake and John had affirmed, then one had to be quite meticulous while dealing with her.For her not to seem far from a suspect list but behind the fraudulent perpetration showed how uniquely skilled she was and shouldn't be taken for granted.Sheraton halted from her initial thought process and withdrew her hands to herself while waiting for the COO’s further instructions.John, Jake, and others were obviously dumbstruck, but their hearts and ears were induced on what Michael's next play in action would be.“When was the last time y'all saw Lilian? Shortly after my welcome at the
Michael Scofield Has Returned! Chapter 83: Jake's Spontaneity
Whatever the reason was, the button line was Michael would most likely benefit from Jake's personality of not falling alone.Michael brought out a piece of paper and wrote out clear instructions with bold capital letters.It seemed like in each minute of events— the new COO had a unique pattern of handling the inward fraudulent activities.“You’d call Lilian and inform her as follows…”Michael handed the piece of paper over to Jake and temporarily gave him back his phone for a specific assignment.“You had better not try anything stupid. Make sure the phone call is on loudspeaker. I want to hear every single word.”He uttered while wearing a serious outlook— it was over three minutes after Lilian sent a text message across, hence she should be expecting feedback from Jake.Lilian noticed Jake and John hadn't been in their designated offices for over an hour and had to chime Jake's phone with an urgent inquiry text message.She was most interested to know the motive behind the meeting
Michael Scofield Has Returned! Chapter 84: Sheraton's Dilemma!!!
Immediately, Sheraton strategically ended the call with a smirk etching in her heart; the office temporarily slammed into a thoughtful state, with each person having a distinguished idea to ponder on.Despite how clinical and spontaneous Jake was on the phone— Sheraton somewhat had doubts if Lilian would profoundly buy the pretentious idea of the meeting taking longer time than it should.On the contrary, Michael Scofield's thought patterns weren't related to whether Lilian would suspect anything dicey or not.He was most interested in Stephanie and how compromised or naive she could be about the shady endeavors of her direct boss.Not quite far from Sheraton's perspective— Jake wasn't completely confident about his level of spontaneity in conceiving Lilian about the so-called thirty drafted smaller companies.He presumed he should have done better while on the hot spot and gave an enticing excuse than the one he mouthed.Knowing how sensitive and coordinated Lilian was— she could per

Chapter 208: War From Within!!!
Michael sat in his office, scoffing as his counterattack went in place. While in his silent moment, his phone chimed. A single text message appeared on the screen.His skin tickled in the process. He beamed while unlocking his phone— he already suspected the personnel behind the message.As expected it came from an untraceable contact: “You just made a grave mistake.”Michael smirked the more and solely dropped his phone back on the table.He had gotten used to Marshall's rageful tantrums and knew he'd send in an anonymous message soon.Despite being determined to fight Michael. The act of sending warning anonymous messages has become an unpredictable act.***Michael did well by exposing three more corrupt business executives but the media publication about his thievery in Kingstown Golden Telecommunications hadn't completely died off.Two days later, Michael and Oliver King scheduled a meeting with senior staff of the company.Indistinct voices were perceived at the Kingstown Golden
Chapter 207: The Swift Blow!
At midnight, Michael stood in the dark, his hands in his front pockets while waiting.In less than thirty seconds, footsteps echoed across as Jacob approached his direction, a thick manila folder wrapped in his hand.Jacob, his lawyer, didn't waste time at the midnight meeting.“It’s worse than we thought,” he got into words, handing over the file.“We carefully traced the leaks back to former employees; people who were loyal to Marshall. But this isn’t just about you.”Michael reactively flipped through the pages of the file. The deeper he read, the more intrigued he was to know what it was all about.“They’re surely coming after Lord Eric next,” he continued. “From all understanding Marshall and Gerald aren’t satisfied with just tarnishing your name. They want to dismantle everything Eric built.”Michael's lips laced with a scoff. “These guys never seem to amaze me”Jacob sighed before continuing. “Eric’s company is still a major player in the industry due to your significant input.
Chapter 206: Birds Of The Same Feathers
Her words rang a chord in his head. He knew those words had once been said by someone in the past.DONG!Yes! It was from his biological father; Oliver King.A hint of his words replayed in Michael's head on how they trained him to have whatever he requested and demanded.Marshall would always frown if he had been said no to because he thought and believed no one could.Michael escaped from his thoughts and focused back on her.“Where did you get from?” He asked, trying to play the pretense card.Christine swallowed in some saliva about to divulge some information she hadn't spoken about in years.“When the Boss gave Marshall the impression he'd become the heir of the company given the fact we believed he was the only offspring of the family.”“He used to come by to supervise the daily activities of the staff and how businesses were being operated. But…”Michael knitted his forehead, willing to know what the but was for.“Speak on. I'm all ears.”He urged her to unleash the cat from t
Chapter 205: Christine's Fears
Michael jotted from his thoughts with his eyes squinted while staring at the lady a few distance from him.Her countenance soured with visible concerns about the challenging moments.Tarnishing content broadcasted by the media with false transactions that never really occurred.A tool of deception so carefully crafted that, if left unchecked, it would be enough to destroy him and all he had built.The price of hard work, creativity, and success was all a smooth road path. It has been a rollercoaster for Michael since he officially became the COO/CEO of three booming industries The female staff all along was Christine who walked closer after he nodded his head to entertain what she had in mind.Her glances laced with frustration— she had wished for the newly appointed CEO to have an interrupted administration but the reality was a stark contrast.“Do sit down,” he calmly asked her while heading to his designated high table at the conference office.“Sir, I would prefer standing.”She
Chapter 204: A Dangerous War
Michael softly smirked and tutted his lips. “A puppet CEO who supposedly embezzled millions?”He had heard the opinions of some media industries about him, and as expected, it didn't come out nicely.He didn't expect the media houses who were quick to run such headlines to have integrity and would easily be swayed to promote content that would incite controversies.The more they broadcast such notions, the more their chances of earning from public opinion expand.He remembered vividly during his trial for embezzling funds from Eric Cottage Winery Enterprise accounts. The same media expertise took it a life duty to broadcast the fabricated evidence.“Seemed so,” Claire chipped in. “It’s ridiculous that some media industries are pushing the narrative rapidly. Gosh!”Michael wasn't surprised about the rapid spread of those indicting news. Marshall wouldn't embark on such a war without having some media enterprises in his control.Hence, those designated media industries might have been i
Chapter 203: A Breach In The Walls
While Michael battled public unrest on the latest development--- a more harmful attack was looming within the company.That evening, Christine, the head of cybersecurity in Kingstown Golden Telecommunications, stepped into his office, her face wrapped with concern while she breathed urgently.Behind her was Malik, the financial advisor who had worked in the company for over six years, his demeanor etched with unease.“We have a problem, Sir,” she began first, placing a file on his desk. “Hmm… A big one.”Michael calmly flipped it open. Inside were detailed financial records; his own financial records, except they were manipulated with false transactions.The numbers painted an untrustworthy picture, making it appear as if he had been funneling company funds into personal offshore accounts.When he had just got out of the fabricated transactions in Eric Cottage Winery Enterprise. His foes swiftly attacked through his father's company.“They’ve been tampered with,” She continued, her vo
Chapter 202: In Her Arms
Each stare from Scarlett reeked of utmost confidence. He didn't have any doubt about her trust in him.Regardless of what the headlines would say about him— Scarlett, who hadn't known him for more than four months, seemed to be a staunch believer in his belief system.Little wonder, she visited the interrogation cell during his temporary detention.“The storm will definitely arise but it won't swallow you up. They're fighting you badly because you're better in every way.”“Brace yourself! You have done a lot for humanity, you have been a good example for the present and younger generations. Your integrity and value system have set a precedent for us to adhere to.”“You're our hero! The multi-talented Herbal Fortress! The business genius! There's nothing they'd pull off that we can't withstand!”Scarlett's words were concise and filled with life.She knew exactly what to say and didn't stutter in the process.Her eyes never left Michael's while spilling those thick, famous words that w
Chapter 201: The Storm Breaks
Two weeks after Marshall’s threatening text message, the looming threat that had been foreseen was finally showcased.It began subtly with whispers in the media about internal conflicts at Kingstown Golden Telecommunications.The bitter truth was Michael hadn't gotten a full grasp of the flow of activities in Kingstown Golden Telecommunications.He was still unlearning and relearning how the company functioned with the aid of his father, Scarlett, but it was a different ball game with Eric Cottage Winery Enterprise because he had always been a fan of great wine.Also while working as the inventory officer at Charleston Park Shopping--- still married to Michelle. He used to request Eric Cottage Wines for sales.It was more like a walk in the park for him. Also, the undercover job he did to expose the bad eggs in the winery company helped him to understand its structure. With the assistance of Stephanie, Sheraton, Oprah Gracy, Sharon, and Cole, the sky was just a starting point.However
Chapter 200: The Looming Strike
Michelle drew a slow breath, glancing nervously around. “He's planning something big. I overheard him talking to some of his allied, powerful, wealthy figures before he was arrested. He's looking for leverage; a way to bring you down.”Michael’s forehead knitted in thoughts. “Why are you telling me this?”Her voice remained steady “Because I have hurt you enough," she admitted quietly. “I made mistakes, but I don't want to see you destroyed. Despite everything, I… still care in some way.”For a moment, there was silence. Michael studied her emotions, facial expression, demeanor, and attitude— searching for deception, but found none.“Thank you for the warning,” he cautiously replied. “I hope you find the path you’re looking for.”Michelle chimed in a shaky smile and turned heading out until his voice halted her tracks.“Who are these unknown allied figures? I know they have been sponsoring this battle. What do they have to gain? Who are they?”Michael's words oozed with curiosity— in
