Standing at the back, Ayden was awed to the point that he couldn’t speak for a while. First, it was shocking that August knew how to draw and was able to perfectly carve out a piece. With such talent, he had rendered all the architecture departments in the company useless. The most amazing part was that he came up with this design in just a few minutes.

Secondly, he wasn’t playing Mr. Black's game, but instead, he was playing his game. Mr. Black might have wanted to destroy the project just to make August suffer, but August didn’t view it like this.

Though the company would face some criticism when such happened, he planned to make a comeback by building a masterpiece that would blow the entire public. Also, he had already thought of a way to curb the criticism and that was by making Mr. Wang accept the blame in exchange for a house worth two billion.

Though this might be a huge loss to the company, thinking about the attention it would attract, and the deals, soon, they would recover

    “What did you just say? Some man named Mr. Wang has taken over the situation, saying he is the one who sent men to destroy the building? Who the fuck is he?” Mr black ranged, his finger clasped around the phone almost crushing it into bits.Anger had seeped into his face, his other knuckles had turned white due to fist tightening, and it was only a tiny bit of resistance he was holding on to else he would have smashed something in the room. This should be how August should be reacting, but the tables have turned. What the heck was going on?“Sir, he owns the project. And just now, news has it that he gave apex corporation the sum of two billion dollars to work on a different project on that same piece of land.” The person replied on the phone.“Is he nuts or what? He is trying to butt in my business, huh? Then I will entertain myself a bit. Find me this Mr. Wang and every information about him. I want his contact now too. Do that quickly!” Mr. Black said before hanging up.“It seems s

    David was already smiling after he was told about the plan. Last time, August wouldn’t have let Mr black leave, but he had threatened his wife’s family and that was why he was forced to compromise.But now he didn’t care about them one bit. They wanted him to divorce Caroline and seemed to be against her progress. Her mother had wanted to poison them, so why should they protect them? The only person he wanted to protect was Caroline, and already, he had sent some men to look after her. Besides, with the way Mr. black thinks, she would be the one he might try to use against August. Now, there wouldn’t be anything that could be used to suppress him again like before.Soon, they hopped into a car and left. Meanwhile, Mr. Wang had already arrived at the hotel and went on to room thirty on the top floor. He came alone just like how he was instructed but when he reached the path to the door, he saw a group of people that were none like who he had seen before.These men were burly, had thic

    The room became silent as footsteps could be heard coming towards the entrance. A gust of wind seemed to have blown in full force from that direction as well, causing the entire place to tremble.When the voice spoke, it felt like it seized the tension in the room, making it plummet to total heat even though there was air conditioning in the room. Slowly and steadily, two silhouettes emerged with imposing auras.Mr Black's eyes widened as he stared in the direction. His heart shivered violently inside his chest as though it was going to fly out of his mouth.“August…reed!” He gasped, while August smiled at him. This made his face look pale, as though he was drenched in a bucket of ice.“Happy to see me? Or are you too shocked to say anything?”’ August spoke as he walked further into the room. Mr. Wang was already jubilating, but that wasn’t the end. His family was held hostage by Mr. black men and any reckless move would warrant them to be killed.He couldn’t help but tell August so

    Snap! Snap!Snap!Soon, August dislocated more of his joints, forcing a louder scream from his mouth. Each one was painful from the last and by now, he didn’t look like he would last any longer.His body was now drenched in sweat, his entire system was hurting, and he could barely even keep his eyes open, yet he refused to say a thing. August began to wonder if the people he was protecting were more important than his life.How far would he go for them? He was ready to face all this torture and still not give in? August was amused, but that didn’t mean he was going to stop. Thinking about what was taken away from him, how he was almost driven to death and crippled for three years, August felt he could still tolerate dislocating all his joints.“He’s stubborn,” David admitted as he stood by the door intending to stop anyone from coming in. “I wonder how long he can hold on. I have the whole day to torture him though.” August smiled as he continued, but then, suddenly, a deadly aura e

    Both August and David, who were boiling in anger, were forced to turn towards the door only to see a short man with a pot belly, clad in a suit standing by the door with two guards.His eyes swept around the room and having seen the bodies that were lying on the floor, he was able to confirm that his hunch was right. Earlier, when August and David walked in and didn’t seem to patronize the hotel officials to book a reservation, he could tell at once that they were here to make trouble.Also, the state in which Mr. Wang was when he hurriedly left the hotel was enough to alert them that something was going on. Having no choice, he came to check only to find such a sight.“Are…you guys criminals?” He asked again after being replied with silence.August didn’t say anything to him. He merely looked at David and gestured at him to leave with him before heading towards the door. But before he could get to it, the manager slid over and blocked his path.“You don’t expect me to watch you leave

    Caroline tried to pull her hand away, but he was a little too aggressive as he pulled her. Also, what he said was still recycled in her head making her wonder in what way she was able to make their mother cry. It wasn’t like they fell out this morning, but then, Caroline was still angry at her for trying to poison August.Now connecting the dots, it just didn’t make sense. Before she knew it, both of them were already in the house, only to be welcomed by the sight of Rachel seated on the couch and crying so hard. Her eyes were swollen, and occasionally, she kept drying her tears with a towel. In summary, she was in a terrible state.Caroline was struck by such sight only for Mark to pour it all out on her. “How dare you make her cry? You were supposed to look after her just like how she carried you for nine months, look after you still you have gotten to this level. Yet, you made her cry? Are you even human at all?” Mark bashed her, leaving her speechless and looking for what to say

  • The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed   A serious problem

    “August, you are back?” Caroline smiled as she turned towards the door. It felt like it had been forever since she had since him. His face, his body, it felt like he was a piece of art she had yet to study, explore, and understand. Does this mean she was longing for him? Caroline quickly brushed the thoughts off and walked towards him.“I’ve been waiting for you. Where have you been?” Her hand slid into his and she intertwined their fingers. Her warmth surged unto him and all the anger he was feeling before washed away. He smiled and looked at her. “It seems you miss me so much.” He teased.“And I called you ten times. Did you care to call back or check your phone?” She stared daggers at him and her lips pouted.“Tch, perhaps he is seeing another woman outside.” Standing by the side, Mark was irritated by the sight. She was all chummy and smiling with him like he was someone who deserved her. He felt August was filth and never deserved to be around her or anywhere near the house. He

  • The Legendary God Of War; the rise of August Reed   The situation is worsening

    “What? How is that even possible? Producing fake products? That isn’t like your company, right? Besides, it doesn't have such records until now. What the heck is going on?” August held his chin as he spoke. Already he could tell someone was behind this. He could likely say it was Mark, but how could he make such a big influence? August thought deeply.“I don’t know. I’ve made sure to supervise the production of these products and went to the warehouse to check, but I can’t find any fault with it. I don’t know where the fault might be. And I’m not sure my clients are in the wrong else why would so many of them come at me at once?” Caroline explained.“I am just so tired.” She walked further in and took off her heels. Her body became weak from the thought of what was going on, draining all the energy she had in her body.“Have you talked to the sales department?” August turned towards her.“Yes, I did. “ She nodded.“Who is responsible for all the warehouses? I’ll say it’s the sales de

    “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
