The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed Pleading for forgiveness
Kneel? Ethan's brows creased in annoyance. Based on status, he was the esteemed manager of Pinnacle Bank, a figure whom so many people looked up to, and here was a punk, demanding he kneel in front of so many eyes. That would be a big insult to his pride and reputation.“Punk, don’t go too far. I’ve realized my mistakes. Don’t think you can threaten me the way you see fit.” He bellowed in anger as he pointed at August.“The one who threatened us here was you. You wanted to call the police, didn’t you? I’ll give you a last chance, you owe my wife an apology, do it peacefully or see you in court, pick one.” August replied with a frown, putting him in a tough position again.Thinking about it, Ethan figured he still had the upper hand here. As long as he got the recording from August, he would have nothing to present to the police as well as sue him. Besides, he had so many men behind him so why get scared of him?“Punk, you have just asked for it, and don’t blame me for being rude.” Eth
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed A reward
Huh? Wasn’t this daylight robbery? Fifty million dollars as compensation for all this? Ethan found himself in a dilemma once more. He wasn’t sure he would be able to get out of this one for the rest of his life. He only made two hundred and fifty thousand dollars here a year, how would he be able to pay the bank after this?He remained knee on the floor. His consciousness seemed to have left his body for a moment when Caroline spoke.“Bring the legal agreement. We will take it as a loan, not compensation.” Then she turned to look at August with a pleading gaze, that explained he shouldn’t pursue this matter anymore. Fifty million was such a huge amount and making Ethan bare the consequences of that would only make her feel like a bad person.“Okay, I’ll let him off because if you.” August compromised with a smile.“Thank you.” Caroline smiled before looking at Ethan.“I’ll get it right away. Thank you so much.” He replied before storming off quickly to it done. She had just spared him
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed Divorce him!
Just then, Rachel, Ms Winston, and even Mark walked out of the villa. When last had he ever made an appearance here in this house, but today he was here. All because of what?That wasn’t all, a man clad in a suit looking to be in his early thirties also walked out holding the divorce papers. He was a lawyer from the marriage union. “What’s going on here?” Caroline's brows creased as she looked around. August also frowned. He couldn’t help but shiver on the inside thinking, with their persuasion, she might give in to divorce him. Besides, a few days ago, she said that herself. What if her decision hadn’t changed? What if she still wanted to divorce him? So many thoughts were popping up in his head.“You didn’t hear me correctly? Since that bastard has come to the family, he has caused nothing but chaos. He even made you turn against me and take over the company. He beat your brother too. You don’t think I’ll take this to you?l” ms Winston said as she pulled Mark forward. Surprisingly,
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed Who sent you?
Watching August leave, the expression on their faces turned even ugly. What was that attitude just now? Who told him to walk out? Had he become even more arrogant because Caroline refused to divorce him? Damn it! Ms Winston cursed. She found him on the street, crippled, hopeless and useless.She brought him here as he was a perfect victim to make her plan work, but now it felt like he was a weapon fashioned against her. He had become Caroline’s backbone, and now he was rigorously acting on his accord as though this was his turf.“We have to find a way to deal with him. I’ll make sure to hook Caroline up with some second generation and only then will she get her mind off this loser. Also, he can help us take care of him.” Ms Winston said her thoughts out loud before looking at the lawyer.“I’m sorry, my granddaughter is just blinded, but that is temporary. I’ll make sure to come find you and sign the papers.” She said to him.“No problem. Since both parties hadn’t signed the document t
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed I need names
Seeing the look in August's eyes, even if he wanted to throw more jokes, he didn’t have the guts to do so. Besides, he had been warned that August had quite a temper and if he were to infuriate him, then regardless of if he had lost his powers, he could still be killed. After all, David was always by his side. August might not be a threat now but David was. His strength was so formidable that it was also feared in the country even though it didn’t hold a torch to August back when he was still in his prime.Sighing, the man replied. “Here,” he leaned to the side and pulled a briefcase to the front. Then he unlocked it and pulled out a stack of documents. “I was asked to give you the ownership of Apex Corporation. Please sign here and the company will be yours.“Also here is the sum of five billion dollars. It’s all yours. You can take it and start your own business. The apex company is a second-tier company that is worth ten billion dollars. It should be enough for you right?” The ma

Inside the Lamborghini.The man in a suit pulled out his phone and dialed a number while at the same time, his other hand was on the steering wheel, controlling the car at an insane speed.“Hello, I’ve done what you asked. But I’m afraid David is on my tail.” He said nervously as he could see David’s car was almost catching up to him. Even though his car was the latest edition of Lamborghini and was supposed to be quite fast, David's car seemed to be modified and in terms of speed, they might be considered almost the same.“That brat? Don’t worry, I'll handle it.” A voice replied over the phone before the call disconnected. The man smiled knowing he was going to get out of this situation and even though David was open to following him to get some answers, he was doomed to fail.On the other hand, David who was about to catch up to him was suddenly shot by a sniper out of nowhere.Bang!“Ooh, shit!” He cursed and quickly controlled the steering wheel to dodge the bullet, but that wasn
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed An act
“Rachel?” August couldn’t believe his eyes. His mother-in-law was here inviting him for dinner. This had never happened before. She hated him to the core, always berating him for no reason, and worst of it, never had she offered him food.If not for Caroline, she wouldn’t do it. And now, on her accord, she was here inviting him? Shortly after they wanted him to divorce Caroline? Something was fishy. He could smell it.Sensing his hesitation, she frowned. “I know I’ve not been a good mother-in-law to you, but now I want to make a difference. I can see Caroline likes you so much. She even stood up challenging her grandmother that she wasn’t going to divorce you. “I can see how you support her company's progress and I won’t lie, I feel you are the best one for Caroline. Since you can now walk, I have no issues accepting you. Taking this dinner as an act of apology for how I’ve berated you these past few years.” Rachel expressed herself with teary eyes hoping he could find a place in his
The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed Find a way to keep her at bay
Hearing this, Rachel's eyes widened. All she wanted was to kill August but nothing else. If Caroline was to eat that food, then of course she would be the one to die. Not only could this cause a huge crisis in the family, but also, as her mother, she wouldn't want such a thing to happenOn the other hand, August didn't have the intention of letting her eat it. Though this poison might take a while to kill him, as for Caroline he wouldn't say the same thing as after all, she was just a normal human with no abilities.Moreover, Caroline had already taken a chunk when Rachel dragged it off her hand, kept it back in the plate, and took it away. She didn't say anything else, but her actions had already proven that what August said was true.August was about to stop her too but when he noticed Rachel's panicked expression, he let her do it, so the truth could be revealed. Now it wouldn't seem as though he was trying to frame her.“Ooh my God, she poisoned the food?” The realization dawned o

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

“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
