Right after the call, the office turned silent. Caroline was seated on the other side of the table looking nervous. Both of her palms pressed together as she began to doubt if the executives would show up. Does this mean she no longer had authority in the company? Mark hadn’t only messed things up, but he made her lose her worth and power too.

If that was the case, then the company was surely doomed. With the stock price going down and if there wasn’t a way to solve it, the company would have no choice but to file for bankruptcy. If that was to happen, what she had spent years to build would have been for nothing.

August noticed her worry and this made him fume in anger. These loosers needed to know their place or else they could keep acting the way they wanted.

“Caroline, come let’s go to the conference room. We will wait for them. Just like I’ve said, ten munites. If they don’t come, we will fire them all.” He suggested.

“Fire them all? They are top executives in the company. If I f

  • The police arrival

    Boom!The entire house was blasted off its foundation and turned into broken debris here and there. Parts such as the roof and other materials used for decoration had also turned into crumple pieces.However, more importantly, there were no casualties, at least not the innocent ones. Casper and his men were all dead, while the hostages had been saved. There was no need to be bothered about them waking up as the caster of the technique had already died, so there was no way it would take effect.He had used his Qi in the process, but now it has become useless. August appeared outside the house and watched how his men took care of things. They had loaded the hostages into the car and intended to drive them off to their houses after waking them up soon.Indeed, their help did make a huge difference as not only would he still be looking for Casper by now, but he wouldn't have been able to save all the hostages with their bodies intact. At least he was able to keep his promise to Lis

  • Take advantage of me

    “Casper Zhou, I can see you have fallen so much that you can't be saved. How can you be so heartless to kill a fifteen-year-old?” August fumed in anger. He had seen people being wicked, but this man was the most heartless person among all. Such an innocent kid, yet it felt like his life wasn't relevant to him.“Speak for yourself, August. How many people have you killed while you were in the military? Don't speak to me like you are the only righteous one here.” Casper sneered. Then be continued.“I don't care if I have to use an infant to kill you. As long as you are dead, it doesn't matter to me.” He added, but then it dawned on him that something was wrong. Munites had passed, yet Rowan's body hadn't detonated and what's more, August's body wasn't becoming pale even after he was poisoned.Instead, it was like…he paused, trying hard to not believe his thoughts and accept that fact that he had been tricked.Seeing this, his confused stare, August stopped putting up and acting and st

  • I was asked to do this

    August arrived at the massive mansion. His gaze was like the scorching sun that was out to set anything on flames. As such, anger was burning inside his veins. He wanted to kill someone. He wanted to kill Casper, making sure to end his life in the most miserable way ever.Shortly, Alpha one walked towards him. “We wanted to engage him but be sent out with a warning saying no one is allowed to enter unless you or else he is going to kill everyone.” He said.“He knows he has no shot at escaping, that's why he is making such a deal. He thinks he can end me. I know he will still detonate their bodies as soon as I go in. Damn that man, he is quite a sly fox, huh?” August said while rubbing his temples.“We should charge in and end him once and for all August. Regardless, there would still be casualties, so it’s better to just go in numbers and end things quickly.” David suggested. Sometimes there had to be sacrifices.August had taught him that in the military, and he felt it was time to

  • Casper’s plan

    Meanwhile, in Pine Estate off Madison Street.Casper was seated in a big mansion while sipping on some red wine. Before him was Rowan tied up on the floor after being knocked out. A deadly glint settled in his eyes as he looked at the boy before he muttered to himself.“You will be my master plan to kill August. Hahaha. Today, I shall deliver your corpse to the council, and not only will I live a stress-free life from today, but I will be compensated with billions too. Who could have thought that killing you would be worth so much?”He dropped the wine glass to the side table before intertwining his fingers together.“After all, it’s expected of a man of your caliber. Don’t blame me. You are just too strong.” He said before his lips curled up. However, in the next moment, his expression turned into a frown.Bang!The door was pushed open, and a man rushed into it, looking panicked. His heart kept beating heavily in his chest as though it was going to burst out of it. He looked at

  • We have found Casper!

    Silence reigned for a while, making Maxwell doubt if the call was still connected. He had to recheck his phone and when he saw the call was still on, he spoke again.“Hello, Mr. Davis, are you there?” Only then was there a response.“Yes, you are to stand down and not intercept. Alexander Reed isn’t someone your military force can take on. I will warn you not to engage him or else your country might suffer a great loss.” Davis warned.“Huh? The reason I called you is that I want you to put him under your control. Isn’t he just a captain who’s under your command? How bad has your military fallen that you can’t control just this one man?” Maxwell mocked.“I dare to say again and see what will happen! You should know more than anyone that no one can stand our military force and August Reed has and always will be unrivaled even in your country. I will warn you now not to let fake news get into your head or else it will cost your lives.” Davis warned.However, he was still angered that Au

  • To apprehend you

    While they were in the car driving away, it didn’t take long before several calls came into August's phone. He wanted to ignore them but then, more kept coming to the point that he became pissed and was forced to pull his phone out to check who the caller was.“Hello, who is this?” The frown on his face deepened as he spoke, looking uninterested in whoever it was.“August Reed, how brazen of you to ignore my calls. Do you know what you are doing?” A voice roared on the other side, one that was filled with so much anger and a powerful aura.August's eyes widened as he recognized whose voice it was, and then his face turned pale.“Supreme commander?” He finally said while David looked at him, stunned.“Ooh yes. I have been calling you and yet, you aren’t picking up. Do you not know what you have done and the kind of ruckus you have set up there in Oakdale? I am ordering you to withdraw the dragon unit now once and for all, or you are going to face my wrath.” The man warned.However, h
