Paying gratitude
Not far away, after the incident that happened a few hours ago, Maxwell had a few things to settle in the city so he stayed back. At this time, he was having lunch at an expensive hotel when he received a call.Right after, his expression darkened. He clenched his fist tightly and stood up.“What did you just say? Someone impersonating my son and using the military to run scandals?” He asked, and when he received confirmation and also the fact that it was August Reed who found this man, his heart trembled.“Damn it!” He cursed before rushing out of the restaurant to his car. His escorts were already waiting around, so when they saw him, they became alerted to follow his lead.“Drive to Style Haven clothing store. I don't care how you do it, make sure you arrive there in ten minutes.” He said to the chauffeur before hopping into the car.Immediately after, the chauffeur sped off while several vehicles followed behind him in the convoy heading in that direction.…Back at the store, the
Struck stiff
August narrowed his gaze on them as he caught a whiff of something. Their aura, the way the dress and the quality of their military attire had given it up already. It was all cheap and fake.These men were disguising to be in the military but to what gain? Then his gaze shifted to Julian and at once he could tell he wasn't Maxwell's son. He was just using the term to either impress this woman close to him or he was using this to scam others.This made him smile, but then the men in military attire had already walked over to where he was intending to break their legs. “Punk, how dare you disrespect our young master? It seems you have been itching to die, and we will grant it for you. Go on your knees now and let us break your legs willingly, or we will do it by force.” One of them who had bulging muscles and was three times August's size, spoke as he looked down at him.August had to look all the way up before he met his eyes but then, that didn't change anything.“Are you worthy to
The son of the supreme commander
“Huh?” August creased his brow after hearing what she said. He frowned and looked at her. “We have purchased this dress already, look elsewhere.” He huffed.“Purchase that dress? When and how? Poor people can now afford expensive things?” The woman retorted, looking at him with disdain writing on her face. She usually got what she wanted and even if August could miraculously afford it, he dared have the guts to oppose her?“Madam, they haven't bought the dress yet. I am not even sure if they can afford it. Look, they are so poor that they have been asking for a discount for a long time now. That won't work, right?” The sales agent chimed in and even condemned August and Caroline just because she wanted to curry favor with the couple.“Hey, that's a lie. You didn't even give us a chance. You neglected us right from the start, and now you dare to say such a thing about us?” Caroline sneered, stunned by what the sales agent said.“Shut up bitch! What is the difference? You don't look li
Going to a store
Thinking about it and how much he had helped her overcome so many situations, Caroline felt she had no reason to disagree. After all, with him, she would feel safe and her classmates would be scared and might not go all out on her like always.“Okay, that's a good idea: I love it. Why don't we go and buy some clothes to wear? What do you think? I can choose for you too?” Caroline said, beaming with excitement and there was no way August could say no. Her smile alone was a thing to kill for. If he had to drop bodies to make it happen, then he wouldn't mind.“Okay, let's go.” August nodded his head.“Good. I'll just put away those documents so we can go.” She said, smiling before walking over to the table and began to close some files she had recently opened. After a while, she was done, so she grabbed her bag and walked back to where he was.“Let's go.” She held his hand and pulled him towards the door. Both of them walked out like happy couples. By the door, shadow was waiting but
I am a man of few words!
The stone darted through, piercing into Pedro's head, right in the middle, leaving a bullet hole in it. Blood began to splash to the floor. His pupils constricted as his body turned limp, and then he fell to the floor dead. Thud! Everyone's mouths fell open, almost as though they would fall off to the floor. August had just killed the chief of police, Pedro Sawyers, in front of not only the police force but also the supreme commander of the country's military. How audacious could one be after this? “I am a man of few words. I can forgive, but don't you dare provoke me for the second time.” August sneered, and he walked over to where Maxwell was. With each step August took, burned with so much heat in his direction, making him sweat even more than he already was. “If you think you can recruit me into your military and turn me against my country, then you are mistaken. I won't do that.” He said before looking away. “If you want to come after me for his death, you can.
Turn of event
“I…didn’t—”“Know? That's what you want to say?” August cut him off even before he could finish his sentence. His voice might be calm, but it was so deadly that Pedro felt his knees turn to jelly. This man had achieved the legendary grandmaster level in cultivation, yet he had the guts to call him a bastard?Someone who could kill him with just a finger. How could he have disrespected him? If only he could go back in time and cancel what he said, he would have done it long ago. Sadly, there was no cure for regret in this life.Thud!No one had to tell him what to do before he fell on his knees. His eyes turned red as though he were going to cry while sweat soaked his suit so much that severely bottles of water could be squeezed out of it.“I am sorry. I was muddled up just now. Please don't lower yourself to my caliber. Please.” Pedro quickly pleaded while his men were in a state of confusion. They were still pointing their guns at August's men and hadn't even processed what was s
