Picking a side
Maxwell was stunned. He never expected that Bruce, who called not long ago to threaten him, would be able to pull off such a move. Is he making the president bend to his rules or what? Maxwell thought to himself.As much as it was very hard to believe, he had no choice. The president sounded angry as he was talking to him; it was like he wasn't concerned about what position Maxwell held, but instead, he held Bruce in much higher regard than him.What the heck is going on? Should he choose between the president and August Reed? That was such a tough challenge for him. In just a little time, sweat had broken out of his pores already.“Hello, are you there?” The president called out again as there was no response. Maxwell was forced to snap out of his nerve-ending thoughts. He swallowed hard as suddenly his throat had turned sore and was hurting a lot.“Sir, I don’t think this is a good idea.” Maxwell immediately spoke to try and open his eyes to the visible fact, that even if not take
You have no choice!
... Inside the ward, as August and Caroline walked in, they saw Shadow leaning on the headboard, seemingly resting. There were many bandages all over his body and signs of pain on his face. But, since he was awake now, gradually he was going to recuperate. That was a fact everyone knew. “Boss, you came?” He asked as he looked at August. Before he could reply, Caroline did. “He had been here all along. He only went out to settle a few things, but now he is back.” Perhaps she didn’t want Shadow to feel like he was nothing more than a subordinate to August and he didn’t care about him. If he knew, he might become sad, so instead he stepped in to explain. August looked at her and sighed before he looked over to Shadow. “How are you feeling?” He asked. “Better. I think I am healing already.” Shadow smiled. “Caroline, now you can go home at least, huh? You have been stressed out all day. You haven’t even eaten. I am sure of it. I did tell you that Maddie is such a miraculous doc

Stone faced
Meanwhile, back in the hospital. After August walked in, he came across Alpha One, who was waiting by the front of the ward. He looked stressed out, and what was more, there was an injury on his face. At once August frowned. This had never happened before, so he was able to conclude that he might have faced a tough opponent, and this was the result.“Who did this to you?” August growled as he got to where he was.Alpha One was busy with his thoughts and didn’t notice him until he heard his voice. He also noticed his figure hovering around him. He looked up at August's face only to see him frowning.August might be heartless to his enemies, but when it came to his people, one would be able to experience his soft side.“I met a strong opponent. He is at the late stage of the immortal realm,” he replied, his face scrunched up. Though there was a high chance that he would have won the battle, if not for WhiteFang pulling off such a wicked trick on him, by now Alpha One might have kille
But don’t kill him
Pablo watched this scene happen before him and couldn’t even think of breathing. His senses seemed to be out of place. How could one man, be able to subdue his men, alone? This had never happened in the history of Blueville before.What the heck was going on?Snap!Snap! Snap!The sound of bone breaking kept echoing in the air. The victims who were passed out were forced to regain consciousness due to how painful it was to have their legs broken.At the back, Ayden and the other guard looked at each other and gulped hard. Indeed, between this man and August, was there even a difference?August on his own was a full-fledged force. One whose aura alone could shake the earth. As for David, though he wasn’t as intimidating, what he had just pulled off could speak for itself. “You’re next.” Shortly after David was done with the men, they all passed out, and then he looked at Pablo and pointed a baseball bat at him.“Since you are their leader, I’ll break two of your legs.” He added.Pabl
Get to your turn
“But boss, what about the five men who are protecting him,” Lee said to Pablo nervously. He was sure to deal with just David, but now that the numbers were higher and he wouldn’t be getting any help from the others, wasn’t it like a suicide mission?““Deal with it. I don’t care.” Pablo replied ruthlessly.However, Lee hesitated, so he warned. “We are running out of time already. What are you waiting for? Don’t make me lose my patience, or else you won’t like what will happen next.”Lee felt like crying. He didn’t want to die, and it didn’t seem like he could easily get what he wanted. Pablo was a ruthless person; he knew that even before he signed up to work under him.The thing was that even if he chose to run, he would be captured eventually and killed. His only option is to prove himself.Gritting his teeth, he looked over at David and sneered.“Aren’t you just a p@ssy? I dare you to come here and fight me man to man. If you have the balls, stop hiding and bending these men like a
