After taking a careful examination of the documents, Caleb closed it and shifted it back to Earnshaw.

“So, did we agree on it? $300 million is not too small for all of your efforts, right?” Caleb asked, crossing his legs. “You understand what I meant? Besides you will still be my lawyer even after I take over the Scott Empire. It is such a huge offer, Earnshaw. Only a fool will reject an offer as prestigious as this one!”

Mr Earnshaw laughed it all away. The both of them glared at each other with a sight which told more of their deep intentions.

Telling from Caleb's eyes, one could detect that he doesn't wish good for Earnshaw. And as for Earnshaw, his laughter tells it all. His laughter tells every of his reasons for standing on this agreement with Caleb.

As He wanted to stand up from his seat, Caleb said. “Just so you know, Mr Earnshaw! Whatever we do and say x remains here. No third party is allowed to be aware of it, not even your wife!”

“The last time I checked, I didn't tell yo

    Caleb was visibly pleased after hearing Dyesi’s plan. Nothing terrified him more than the thought of his name being dragged through the mud—or worse, seeing the business that had brought him so much success crumble before his eyes.Grinning with satisfaction, he gave Dyesi a firm pat on the shoulder. “You’ve really outdone yourself, Dyesi. I was almost convinced we’d have to cave in and give that idiot what he wanted. But now? After hearing this plan, I’m sure of it—Lioness’ Den will keep standing tall, and no one’s going to take us down.”Dyesi uncrossed her arms, a smirk tugging at the corners of her lips. “The best way to destroy your enemies,” she said coolly, “is to let them believe you’re stupid. Never let them know you’re ten steps ahead. Let them get comfortable… then hit them where it hurts the most.”Caleb nodded, clearly impressed. He stepped closer to her. “So when do we move? We can’t afford to waste time. The longer we wait, the bolder Adam gets. He could go to Franco—or

    Adam gave them one last grin of threats before raising his voice. “Officers! Someone get me out of here!” The officers came in immediately and bowed before Adam and Dyesi before taking Adam out of there.The moment Adam was taken out of the visiting room, Dyesi stood up and walked out in full agitation.As she walked out, Caleb tried calling onto her but she turned deaf ears. She refused to listen not until they got out to the exterior of the precinct.Just as she wanted to open her car to walk in, Caleb dragged her back.“What do you think you are doing? I mean, where are you heading to?” He asked, looking around to make sure that nobody was concentrating on them. “Adam just gave us the worst threat of our lives. He is aware of all the activities going on under the ground. He is aware of the lioness' Den, of everything we do there. Even the Illegal babies. He knows too much already and he is capable of doing what he threatened to do!” “So what do you want me to do?” Dyesi inquired,

    CHAPTER 92:Dyesi and Caleb shook their head in surprise. They never expected such a thing to come out of Adam's mouth. I mean, him asking them to kill Franco and at the same time, get him out of jail. Is he being serious right now?Caleb chuckled bitterly, his lips curving cruelly. “You want us to get you out of jail? And at the same time kill Franco?”Adam nodded. “Yes! That's the condition for keeping your dirty little secret hidden forever and ever!”Dyesi clenched her jaw and looked away, then exchanged sharply through her nose. “Are you for real, right now?” She ranted. “That's a very big task to fulfil, Adam. First of all, you committed a deep offence. You almost killed Archie Bunker just because he won the award. Your company is also suspended all because they are fraudulent. It is a very big crime to escape from, Adam. Do you expect us to clear your name within hours and even get you out of this prison just like that? Who does that?”Adam narrowed his eyes and growled a warni

    Caleb stood up from his seat, and yelled “What?” No way did he expect such a bad report from Dyesi especially now that he is now part of the Lioness Den.A few days ago, Caleb met with Dyesi for a request. Because of the level of his job in the empire, he hardly has enough for himself. He wanted to have more income before inheriting Scott Empire from Muna. So he asked her to take him in as her side-kick in The Lioness Den.If she accepts him, he promises to support her in any way he can and he'll make sure that their activities remain a secret as long as he is breathing.Dyes had no option but to say “Yes!”But she made something crystal clear to Caleb. She warned him “No matter what trouble the Syndicate may fall into, he must ensure that he protects and helps them come out of it!”Caleb agreed. Now, he is second in command in the illegal business!“Why are you still quiet, Caleb?” Dyesi toned in, jolting Caleb from his thoughts. “I hope you haven't forgotten the promise you made! Y

    Dyesi's eyes went “miaaa” as her body trembled in shock.She quickly looked around to see if someone was watching or listening but luckily, no one was paying attention to her phone call.With that, she heaved a sigh of relief before turning to the telephone.“How…how did you find out about that? I mean, what do you mean by that?” Dyesi stammered, trying to force herself to act like she doesn't know what Adam was talking about but gether tone failed her.Adam looked around carefully and lowered his tone more. “You can hide your fear from the whole world but you can't hide it from me, Dyesi!”“You have just four hours. Just four hours to meet up with me. Refusal to do this will of course, lead to your downfall! I will call Franco and tell him everything I know. I am sure you don't want that to happen, right?”Dyesi wanted to speak up but Adam cut her off.“I will be waiting for you, Miss Leah! You wouldn't like what I will do if you don't show up!”He hung up immediately and walked out

    Franco and Adam continued glaring at each other with contempt. Franco's face was just a mixture of happiness and victory while Adam stared at him with blazing eyes which would have fired hundreds of bullets if it were a gun!As they glared at each other, Jack immediately came between them. “Hey! That's enough! Enough of the confrontation!” He bowed before Franco slightly, giving him an apologetic face. Franco responded by nodding his head, showing that he understood!Adam sighted this. He saw it with his two eyes, Jack seemed to be SORRY for yelling at Franco. That is very suspicious, considering the fact that Franco is a nobody.“Something is wrong somewhere!” He thought to himself.Immediately, the officers took him away.He was taken to the cell, where he met many people he had never met before.Seeing how dangerous they appeared, Adam decided to stay within his lane. As he sat uncomfortably beside the bars, the officers pushed one inmate into their cell, warning him.“Don't you e
