The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed Paying mark a visit
Jason was in so much pain. Blood was splashing out of his broken leg, but the pain wasn’t comparable to the deadly aura he was feeling from August. He wasn’t human at all. It was like staring at a beast knowing that one mistake can cost your life. After all, August had said it already. If he didn’t do as told, then he was going to die.Though it was painful to be disabled, he didn’t want to die. Quickly he pulled out his phone and called the finance department.“Hello, I want you to sell twelve percent of the company's stock. After that, I want you to credit Aurora Corporation with the sum of a hundred and sixty million dollars right away.” Jason gave his orders while shivering.“What? Sell the company stock? The higher-ups won’t want that.” The voice protested over the phone, but Jason was firm. His life was on the line here. He would deal with all those later on, but for now, he had to try to save himself.“Shut up and do what you are told. The chairman ordered this.” Jason lied so
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed Crashing the party
The bustling of music boomed all over the house and also into the neighbor's houses from around, but somehow, none of them had come out to complain. Perhaps, they were too scared to come out to complain, or even if they had, Mark must have threatened them or either way, bribed them to keep shut now that he had a lot of money.“Excuse me, out of the way!” Suddenly, a feminine voice came from behind almost pushing August out of the way. When he looked, he saw a girl with a skimpy skirt trying to get into the house.When she felt his gaze on her, she clicked her tongue. “If you aren’t going to go in, then get lost!” She sneered before walking in.August smiled. “Yeah, I’ll go in but to crash the party.” He said to himself before walking into the house.“Come on ladies, shake that waist. Allow the music to control you. And also don’t forget to get drunk tonight. Everything here has been settled by Mark. Enjoy yourself.” The club DJ roared while making some gestures to the crowd. He was i
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed A thorough beating
Bang!Soon, multiple sounds could be heard as not only was Mark's head driven into the television but even the floor, the flower vase, and even the couch had been smashed with his face. He was now feeling miserable and didn’t dare to say August couldn’t hurt him.He tried to break free from August's grip, but his body was like a trash can that could easily be tossed from here to there“Wait please, let me go. What did I do?” Mark asked feigning ignorance. Though it was ridiculous, it made August stop beating him just to look at his pathetic face.Just then, the lady who August met with Mark in the bedroom scurried out of the house with her handbag and heels in her hand.She didn’t dare to completely dress after seeing how August was dealing with Mark thoroughly. She felt if she didn’t run, then perhaps it might be her turn next.Meanwhile, August didn’t bother with her and just focused on Mark. “Where is the forty million that was sent to you?” He asked. Mark was a big spender and ha
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed What do we do now?
While Caroline was still in the company, she received a confession video of Jason stating how he plotted everything and also how Mark was the one who instigated him into it. Then again, it had to be her brother who wanted her downfall more than anything else. Was it that until she had given up and handed over the company back to him, was when he would stop trying to bring her to her demise? Why was it that people who were supposed to be family, and the closest thing you were supposed to have in the world turned out to be worse than one's enemies?In the end, she couldn't bring herself to ask the police to arrest Charlotte. It wasn't her fault since she was threatened by Emily and because she had a kid she was taking care of, Caroline was unable to let such harsh judgment befall her. She was once again put in a tough position, but that didn't mean she was supposed to be heartless. As for Emily and Jason, she made sure to expose what they did in a press conference. Also, she was sure
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed Giving the car to Caroline
On the other hand, Caroline was on her way home in a taxi when she received a notification on her phone. Her account had been credited with the sum of fifteen million dollars.This made her gasp so loudly that the cab man had to look at her in worry, thinking the worst scenario had happened to her.“Did something bad happen?” He turned around to find her staring at her phone intensely. Realizing she must have raised an alarm, she quickly brushed off the expression on her face and smiled. “Ooh, it's nothing.” She said. Besides how could she start telling him she received such a huge amount of money when after all he was a stranger to her?“I see.” The man looked away and kept on driving.Meanwhile, Caroline remained restless. She became so eager to go home just so she could ask August if he had something to do with this. Or does this mean what he had predicted was right? The money was from Mark. He wouldn't randomly send her money unless maybe…. She clasped her mouth tightly unable t
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed Passing out judgment
In no time, so many people hop out of the car and behold, they were all family members of the Winston family. From Ms Winston who was the head of the family down to the lowest member of the family. Each of them had frowns of displeasure in their face as they walked down to where August and Caroline were.In total, there were twenty of them. The cars they came with couldn’t fit into the house, so some had to park outside.“Caroline and August, you both outside?” Ms Winston said as she stood in front while he other family member stood behind her back. “Rachel, you are outside too.” She lifted her head towards the door while Rachel walked down to greet her.“Mother, I didn’t know you were coming. And with everyone?” Rachel was tense as she spoke. Having so many family members come to the house meant one thing. Something serious had happened.“And who do you think is the cause? Your son has been locked up in prison after he was beaten to a pulp but this brute.” Ms Winston sneered before h
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed Banished from the family
The words were like a bomb, but only to August and Caroline's ears. As for the others, they were more than pleased to hear such a thing from Ms Winston. It was more like they had been waiting for it to happen since they were the ones who instigated her into it.Besides, everyone wanted to get rid of him, so the feeling was general among them.“No! You can't do that. He is my husband, how can you banish him?” Caroline's eyes widened as she snapped, unable to take it.“And It's because he is your husband that's why he has been banished. Since he feels he can do what he pleases, we don't want him anymore in this family nor our house.” Ms Winston finalized, her eyes portraying a deadly glint.Hearing this, Rachel couldn't hide her happiness. She quickly stepped forward to persuade Caroline and have her view things the way she did.“Caroline, this is better. Your grandmother and everyone have made sure to come up with this because they know it's the best for you. They want to look out for
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed Have you two parted ways?
While Caroline was in her room crying, her family members seemed to have concluded what their next move would be. They all came into an agreement and thereafter, everyone drove away heading back to the main Winston villa. Rachel on the other hand, rushed towards Ms Winston to ask what had been bothering her.“Where is Mark? How is he?” Her eyes held so much emotion as she asked. “Why don't you go and see for yourself? He is back at home. A doctor has been invited to treat him there.” Ms Winston sneered before turning to the exit, obviously still angry at Rachel.However, after taking a few steps, she stopped and turned towards her.“Make sure to return the car key to him. Perhaps have someone deliver the car back to his house.” She added and with that, she left.Rachel nodded, having no complaints about that as after all she was thinking the same thing. She turned towards Ezra and Ayden, “Be with her at all times okay?” She instructed, and after they had nodded in confirmation, she

Its your turn
“How dare you! August Reed, don't push your limit. I don't always have a good temper!” Peter couldn't hold it in anymore. Seeing that smug expression, how he was mocking him and didn't even feel anything for what he had done was making him madder.His only son would have died. If such would have happened, who would be the one to supersede him? Should he adopt a child or what? The more he thought about it, the angrier he was becoming.“Are you hurt? Are you angry? That's exactly what I have been feeling for years. You planned my demise and you expect me to go easy on you? Who does that.” August said with a playful smirk on his lips.“Now let's get to the point. Give me names and also sign off all your property to me.” He added, staring coldly at him.“And why should I sign it off to you? I only took money but nothing else. If you want, I can write you a check for five hundred million so you can leave.” Peter replied, creasing his brows at him.“Five hundred million? Indeed you are bol
Like father like son huh?
Meanwhile, just then, August arrived at the company with David. Both of them were still inside the car when they craned their head to look at the tall building before them.As the name implies, it was a tall sleek building with several floors. The name was boldly carved in front with an explicit craftsmanship. As for the refinery, it was located behind the tall building.Besides that was of no concern to him. Who he had business with was in this building and on the top floor. That was where he was going to go to settle scores.“Let's go,” August said before hopping down while David followed. Both of them approached the entrance and got in. Immediately, they became the subject of attention but none of them cared.Just then, August felt a compelling aura coming from the top. He didn't expect this to be easy after all. Peter Derrick might be waiting for him already or even set traps. This made his lips curl into a smirk, and he looked to the side to David. Both of them exchanged glances
Meeting one of the council members
She moved closer, pressing herself into him as she squealed in excitement. August didn't complain as rather he was enjoying it and also, the feeling of seeing her happy was a thing to kill for.“Sorry.” Her face flushed hard, and she pulled off after realizing she was squeezing him too tightly.“It's fine. Don't forget that you have to go to work.” He reminded them and watched her nod her head in agreement. “I will see you when I get back.” she placed a kiss on his cheek before turning and hurrying towards the car. As she got closer, she couldn't help but examine its features.After all, it was a BMW. A car known for its powerful performance, sleek design, and advanced technology. It offered a comfortable and premium driving experience, with innovative features and a reputation for quality. Though she had wanted a car, she never thought of something this expensive and flashy.Rather she would have gone for an Audi as it was a few thousand dollars compared to this one. Quickly, she op
Its true?
The next morning arrived quite fast. August slept in Caroline's room, both of them had been curdling for the entire night, and didn't even realize it was morning not until his phone started buzzing on the side cupboard close to the bed.The sound was so alarming that it didn't only wake August but Caroline too. He yawned and looked at his phone thinking about switching it off for disturbing him but when he brought the screen to his face, he saw it was David calling.Wondering what it must be about, he picked it up.“You do know that it's too early right?” He grumbled.“Early? Have you checked the time? It's already ten o'clock. Or don't tell me you are curdling with your wife so much that you don't want to wake up?” David teased. The phone was on a loudspeaker so Caroline heard it all. Her face flushed and quickly, she scurried off to the bathroom.August smiled before returning his attention to the phone. “What's wrong? Talk to me?” He spoke.“This is good news and might be consider
You owe me one
“Do you think you have subdued me? Are you sure about that?” Sniper said, his lip curled up. Even as he was pinned on the floor, it felt like he still had the situation under his control. August had a hunch. He looked around trying to pinpoint where the danger might be coming from when Sniper pulled out a small device from his mouth and threw it onto the floor.Bloom!Next thing, there was smoke everywhere. The smoke was foggy but what's more, it seemed to be hot to the eyes. Before August could close his eyes, a bit of the smoke had gotten in and now the effect was taking place.“What's this? Pepper powder or what?” August winched in pain but just then, Sniper was able to use the opportunity to his advantage. August wasn't as strong as he was before, so all Sniper did was force his hand out of his grip, and then he quickly turned to face August, thereby pushing him off.This made August stagger to the back. The substance in his eyes was still hurting, and he had yet to overcome it
Sniper attacks
Gulp!Richard choked, and his mouth turned sour as the content went right in. His eyes palpitated, and he quickly wanted to spill it out, but August had already crouched down and held his throat. His fingers wrapped around his neck were like iron claws, forcing him in place.“Swallow it.” He ordered. His voice held a hint of threat, one that signified he was going to crush his throat if he didn't swallow it.“Plea–” Richard wanted to beg but as a result, the venom was able to slip down his throat.Seeing this, August pulled away smiling. “Now this is a final warning. If you survive today, eventually, and come after me, I will kill you. Read my lips, I am going to kill you.” He said, and with that, he walked towards the door and left.“Help, someone help.” Richard's entire body began to burn up. The venom was taking effect in his system, and soon he was going to die. He knew this. After all, he handpicked this venom due to how fast it worked just so he could test it out on August.But
But, I will die
“Be a good boy and open your mouth so I can empty this venom inside.” The man in suit turned towards August grinning as he spoke, taking him like a fool and someone who would easily be forced to do something out of fear. All fifteen men gathered stepped forward and were facing him. There was no way he would dare to say he wouldn't do as he was told.“Be fast. We staked a lot of money on you. Or do you want us to pin you on the floor and feed the poison to you by force?” Another man asked while the others began to chuckle.“I'll give you a chance. Give that venom to Richard over there, and then I might let you live.” August said with a deadly aura that seized the tension in the air. The men shuddered looking into his eyes that was like a void but soon after, they were quick to shrug the feeling off. “What are you doing? Attack him at once.” Richard bellowed from behind as he was so eager to see August jerking on the floor and then dying while he laughed at him.“Okay, boss.” The men
