The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed Tables turned
“Hello Ayden, give me a breakdown about our partnership with haven properties.” August said as soon as the call went in.“Haven properties? Well, we signed a three-year deal, and also they owe us a sum of two hundred million dollars.” Ayden replied quickly.“Ooh, they are owing us? That’s good. Call the manager right now and ask her to come and meet me. I’m in their office.” August said and with that, he hung up.“Are you done putting up a show? Guess what, I have also called the guards. They are on their way here too.” The attendant said with a smile on her face before she dropped the telephone which she had just used to make a call.August looked at her and then down to the telephone she just kept. He then asked. “Why do you have to be ugly and rude? It doesn't make sense right? If you are rude, then at least your face should match up to your ego, right? But look at you, you have zero manners, also, you are still ugly even with the thick makeup on your face. I’d rather go to jail t

August raised a brow at her but didn’t say anything. Instead, he looked at the manager and spoke.“Why don’t you call the guards back and have them drag her out?” He suggested.“Okay, sure.” The manager replied. After all, she was tired of her. Not just today, there have been several reports of her being rude to customers and adding lots of percentages on actual sales. The manager had been enduring this but not anymore. It had become too much.“Guards!” She yelled and the two men who had scurried away just now came running back.“Drag this lady out quickly.” She ordered.“Please, I can’t lose my job. I promise I will never be rude again. Please give me another chance. Please!” The attendant kept pleading, tears rolling down her eyes, but he didn’t care.Wasn’t she the same person who was insulting him just now and acting like the world was revolving around her? Now he had turned the tables around. Did she dare to be smug around him?“Mr. August, can we talk in my office please?” The

The manager went on to process the payment while August waited for a little while. Shortly after, she was done and returned to hand over his card and also the house's keys to him. “Thank you.” August smiled at her before leaving. On the other hand, the manager was quick to call the chairman and report everything to him, also telling him the terms she had come to agree with August. From the look in his eyes and how he sounded, if their company wasn’t fast with paying off the loan they were owing, then they would have to be ready for some consequences. … Caroline arrived home in tears. She felt betrayed, sad, twisted, and above all, complicated. Memories of the past began to recycle inside her head making her wonder why August didn’t tell her anything all this time. He didn’t tell her he was from the military until she heard it from someone else. And what was the part where he was going to leave her to chase revenge? Does this mean he was using her family to treat his legs, and now

“If he didn’t cheat on you, then what did he do?” Rachel inquired, her eyes holding curiosity.“He—“ Caroline rolled her eyes, contemplating. She remembered how August stood for her, fought for her company, and made sure she got compensated for all the losses she incurred. If not for him, she wouldn’t be the one controlling the company, and all what had happened would have swallowed it whole. Indeed, he wasn’t the bad guy, but then she needed an explanation for all this.“It’s not that serious, mom, don't worry about it.” She said after a while but Rachel saw it like it was too heavy for her to spill out. She smiled and took her hand into hers. “I understand. You don’t have to explain.” She caressed Caroline’s palm as she spoke, making her see the raw emotions in her eyes.“Thank you mom.” Caroline was touched, she drew in and hugged her tightly. Even though Rachel was her mom, she would rather not reveal what she found out about August, at least not yet. She would let August tell t
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed Meeting Richard
“Caroline.” A man with blond hair, and sharp gray eyes, smiled as he turned towards Caroline. He was clad in an expensive suit, not just anyone but from a renowned brand named Dormeuil. As he turned to look at her, he made sure to flaunt the Patek wristwatch he was putting on. It had a spark that easily reflected in her eyes.“You look ravishing. Even more beautiful than a star.” As his eyes sized her up, her shape was just so alluring that he felt like drooling. But then he was a scion. He just couldn’t downgrade himself, so instead, he stood up and walked over to the couch where she was.“Caroline? Allow me the pleasure.” Before she could utter a thing, he grabbed her hand and placed a kiss on it. Caroline was cringed by the sight and the feeling of his lips on her skin but didn’t say anything.However, Rachel was watching with so much fascination in her eyes and she couldn’t ruin it just yet.“Hello, let me guess, you must be Richard?” She asked.Thinking he must have made an i

Meanwhile, August was seated in his office planning how he was going to explain things to Caroline and then take her to the house he had just bought. He had made up his mind. From now on, he won't hide anything from her. No more secrets, nothing. Not only would it strengthen their bond, but it would give room for him to show how much he trusted her and how she meant a lot to him. From how her message sounded to him, he could tell she hadn’t fully rejected him. This gave him the thrill he had never felt before. He was feeling like rushing over to the Winston villa just to get this over with and also get to inhale her scent.Ding!Just then, a message popped in. He looked and after seeing it was from Caroline, his smile brightened. However, after he had read through the content, he frowned.“What the?” He nearly cursed but stopped midway.Caroline was headed to the Sky Loft Hotel. For what? His brows creased wondering what it might be about. Since she asked for him, he could sense s

After the call, Richard remained in his seat gritting his teeth and also biting his fingertips occasionally. He wouldn’t stop thinking about how infuriating it was to just let August go like that without giving him a piece of him. Indeed, his men were just the worst.They couldn’t stop one man from coming in so he could have time to toy with Caroline the way he saw fit. Now he had missed a shot at such a beauty.Ring! Ring!Just then, his phone started buzzing, he looked at it and saw it was the number he had just called requesting information about August. Quickly he picked it up.“Hello, we have found some information about August Reed. He is just a penniless man who was found in the street three years ago. The Winston family took pity on him and made him marry Caroline.“Though he had been a cripple all through, his leg was recently treated.” The voice said.“Hmp, so he doesn't have a tough background, huh? That means what Rachel told me was true. And he likely just got lucky defea

They kissed for a long time, savoring the moment before pulling away. Caroline didn’t push him away even as it came unexpected. The taste of his lips in her mouth was just so heavenly that she didn’t want him to stop, but then she ran out of breath.“I…” she looked away. “Love you too.” Her face flushed. “Not because you are the man who saved me before, but you are the only one who has stood by me these years, seen my worth, and never wants me to be tied down by those absurd family rules.” She added.August heart fluttered in excitement. Indeed, it was a good idea to have kissed her just now. Her eyes held pure emotion and knowing her, she was telling him the truth. Does this mean she had formally accepted him?“Thank you, Caroline. I’ll make you realize how deserving I am of your love. Then if you are willing, we will marry again as the first seemed forced.” He suggested while she nodded her head in agreement.“Okay. I’d love that too.” She said before turning to face the house.“You

“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

“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

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
