2025-01-16 05:30:39Nathan didn't want to let Rachel hear who he was or even get the idea that he was someone of that kind of power before it was time for him to reveal it to her.
“So what did you find Carl?” Nathan said as soon they were out of the room, he was looking at the man who came to give him the message.
“We found one of the five Specter family heirlooms that were taken on the day the enemy took out your family, they are trying to sell it at an auction,” Carl was looking at Nathan, he could see that there were signs of him being angry.
Nathan was still shocked that they were thinking of selling his family heirloom in an auction and it was clear they had concluded that there was no one left in the family that would come back to take it back.
“So they think they erased all of the Specters like that? This is something I can work with.” Nathan was muttering to himself when he got the news.
He turned to Carl, “So can you get me the information about this auction where it is held and the names of the families showing up there?”
Carl opened the file in his hand when he heard Nathan's request and he knew that there was no way he would be able to tell him no like that.
“I have a clear number of the people going to attend the event, they invited a few prominent men but then the one name that is still a shock to me is the name of the man who has the intention of selling the heirloom. I think his name will intrigue you, sir,”
Carl handed the file to Nathan, he looked into the book and saw something very shocking to him and he knew that they were going to be having a ball at the auction.
“Interesting, I knew that I would have to bring some heavy armory when I was coming back here.” Nathan was looking at the name on the paper and he was sure that there was no way he would want to let them walk out of this alive.
“I believe you have already made arrangements for my getting into the Auction?” Nathan was looking at Carl, he wanted to know what they were going to be doing next.
“Of course sir, everything has been sorted out, I just need you to get ready for the auction,” Carl said as he walked away too, pulling out his phone and it was clear he was going to be making a phone call.
Nathan walked back into the room where he was going to talk to his wife and see how she was doing. He caught her still adoring herself in the mirror, it was still unclear how he was able to clear off scars that had been there all her life.
“I wonder what he did to make sure that there was no way for me to see any sign of the wounds I used to hide from the world and now I am fully healed like there was nothing on my body before. I don't know what I am going to call this,” Rachel was looking at her body in the mirror.
“Let’s call it a miracle,” Nathan smiled as he looked at her.
His words stunned Rachel, she was not ready for Nathan to walk into the room like that and she was lost in the moment.
Rachel turned to look at the man standing behind her with a smile on his face. She couldn't hide the fact that the man she almost pushed away was the one who did everything in his power to make sure that she was okay.
Rachel didn’t know what she was going to say to him but then there was “I can't seem to thank you enough, even if it is a miracle, I need to thank you for giving me the chance to be able to look at the mirror and not want to break it.”
Rachel couldn’t look at Nathan, she put her head down trying to make sure that there was no way he would be looking her in the eye.
Nathan could only smile and look at the woman in front of him, it was something he had never imagined doing. He only had the intention to make sure that he would thank her for saving him from the car years ago.
Nathan walked up to Rachel, he was not going to let her feel that bad with herself it was going to be okay if she was going to be there with him.
“Rachel, I have something for you.” Nathan stood in front of Rachel as he put his hands into his pocket and brought out an odd-looking stone.
It was a bit strange and looked like a relic from an ancient time, it was a necklace carrying the symbol of a mountain and a sword.
“Take this, hold it anywhere you are going, and if you ever feel like you’re in huge trouble make sure you will hold it. I will be there to make sure that nothing is going to hurt you.” Nathan smiled as he looked at Rachel, he was going to the auction and he wanted to make sure that there was no way for her to get hurt.
Rachel looked at Nathan, she was confused. “Why are you giving this to me?” she asked looking at Nathan not letting anything hold her back from asking the question.
Nathan smiled, held her hand, and then said. “There is something I need to handle tonight, I will be back soon and then we can make arrangements to go see your family.”
Rachel was looking at Nathan and all she could imagine was what would have happened if he had been endangered by her words then it would have been a problem for her and he would not have done anything to heal her.
“Okay, I will be fine you can go handle whatever it is,” Rachel was smiling when she was looking at Nathan.
Nathan gave her a calm smile, “I will be back soon.”

The auction was in a few hours and he needed to appear there as one of the oddest-looking men so they wouldn’t think much of him. “So I need to carry weapons with me?” Nathan asked himself as he entered the car, Carl was seated there he was going to help Nathan get to the auction with no problems. “Sir, I also got Intel that the people who are trying to sell the heirloom have connections to the remaining four heirlooms,” Carl gave Nathan the run-through of what he was going to be expecting.

“Are you insane?” The driver was looking at Nathan, he was not sure he had seen someone who would know it was them and even think of insulting them like that. “Do you know who I am carrying in this car here?!” The man was looking at Nathan, he was expecting him to fall on the floor and plead for his forgiveness. Nathan rolled his eyes, he was not happy in any way and he was also not going to say anything other than the fact he was not sorry for denting the car. “I don't care if it was the Emperor you are carrying in your shit truck there, I would give you one piece of advice and that would be to learn how to drive.” Nathan was about to turn and walk away. “You bastard, you better stop right there!” The man yelled, it seemed like he was not going to let Nathan walk out on him like that. “You just dented, Lord Nico’s car! He is affiliated with the Keaton heir and you dare do something like that and think you are going to walk out without paying for it?!” The driver was persistent a

Nathan was a bit shocked that the lady knew who he was and not just as Nathan but as the Masked General.“I know this is a bit weird but I don't know who you are,” Nathan was looking at the lady trying to see if he would get anything out of the whole encounter.

She didn't let that stop her from talking to him, “I knew that there was no way you would be able to recognize me like this but then I wanted to give it a try after I saw you talking to the Nico family driver like you didn't care,” Nathan was looking at the lady, he then realized who she was, and he smiled a bit when he did. “I never thought the Angel Of Death could wear a gown and look like an elegant lady,” Nathan was looking at the stage, he was still smiling when he said it. “So now you recognize me, you are one hard head aren't you?” The lady was looking at Nathan, she wasn't looking down anymore. “I heard you came down to Caldor and I was curious as to why the legen

Nathan let out a cool sigh, he had a happy look on his face and it was clear as day that he was going to be happy to make sure that nothing was going to keep him from taking it.

Nathan did not sound happy when he was trying to tell Elena why the Amulet was important. "So you're telling me that those bozos have something to do with your family's death?" Elena had connected the dots, she knew that he wouldn't be thinkin

Nathan waited for them to bring him the machine that would be able to handle his card. He noticed that everyone in the crowd was quiet and didn't want to say anything. The announcer was still looking at him. They were all wondering one thing, and it was clear from their faces what it was. "Who on earth was this man? And why was he going this far to make sure that he would mess with the Nico family heir like that?" When the machine came to them, the announcer looked at Nathan to see if he would see a sign of him trying to change his mind and do something else but then he could only see the same look on his face and it was only the smile that Nathan wore on. "Here you go sir," The announcer didn't want to butt into something that he would not be able to explain but he was looking at Nathan trying to understand if he would see anything that would hint at what was going to happen next then he didn't see anything.

Anthony knew that Nathan was not joking around and from the looks of things he was going to make sure that he would pay him his part of the bet. "Now, the choice is yours. Pay what you owe me or I will have to make sure that there is no way for you to walk normally again," Nathan threatened Anthony from the looks of things he was not going to be joking with him and he was going to make sure that the part of the bet would be paid.'Who is this man? Doesn't he know that I am Anthony Nico? How on earth is he asking me to make sure I would give up my car and clothes to him.' Anthony for the first time in his life was afraid, he didn't know what he was going to do to Nathan. "You know, we could be civil about this and not act like kids." Anthony wanted to shake things off and make sure that Nathan would calm down. "Shake things off?" Nathan walked closer to Anthony, he showed the clear difference in height staring down at Anthony like an adult would look at a toddler. "You think that t

The crowd was silent. They were still trying to grasp what was happening right in front of them. There was no way they would even want to believe that Nathan was throwing Anthony around like a rag doll, and from the looks of things, he was not going to let him go soon. "I know the people of Caldor think you are invincible, I will make sure you don't walk away here without paying for the nonsense you tried to pull here." Nathan was looking at Anthony, at first he had no intention of making his presence known to anyone but it was clearly going down the drain. With his action, his face had been marked. Anthony was looking at Nathan, he had rage in his heart and there was no way he would be letting go. He managed to look Nathan in the eye as he began to speak. "I don't know how you think you would be able to walk out of this place without me hunting you down. I will see to it that.." "Are you still talking?" Nathan looked at him, he was not in any way happy to hear the man's voice and

"Bloodshed?" Elena stared at Nathan, she knew he was not joking but for him to say that there was going to be bloodshed meant that there was going to be someone who would try to speak against him or even try to get to stop what he was planning to do. "Yes, I know that I have paid for the heirloom, but I also want to find out who sold it to them and how the person obtained it." Nathan sat down; he was not in a jolly mood. He had drawn attention to himself, and he was trying to think of a way to ensure that he would take the heirloom and get the information he needed. "Oh I see, you don't want the Keaton family to play with you and you also want to make sure that they see that you are serious." Elena was trying to understand something but she had already heard what he had in mind. "So I see there is no way for anyone to stop you. I only pray they don't anger that much, but knowing who they are." "I hope they do. I have been looking for an excuse to let loose. Doing General work does

The day for the Petoria Gala was drawing close, and not only Nathan and his men were preparing to see what they could do. Cruz was looking for a way to see that they would take them down right there and then. “If I am not making any mistakes, then it would be the best moment to strike him.” He was looking at his plans. It was something that no one would have helped him out with, but then he needed to make sure that there weren't any slip-ups. “So what if this plan fails?” His partner was looking at him, the man’s face always seemed to be blocked out by the light. Cruz looked up, he was looking at the man and a smile was on his face. “There is no way for this not to be the plan I have working for.” Cruz was confident that nothing was going to be wrong with his plan and he would be the one with the last laugh. “I know he is being protected but then there would be a way for me to find a loophole and make sure that I am going to kill him and nothing is going to stop me.” He had the

“I have something to tell you,” Nathan said, letting out a soft sigh. He was looking at Rachel. He knew she was either going to hate him for the rest of her life, or she would be one of the people who would support him through it all. Rachel looked at her husband, and she could tell by the look in his eyes that something was bothering him. “Is anything wrong?” She touched his cheek, looking at him with a worried look. “Tell me, did anything happen? Is anything bothering you?” Nathan smiled. He placed his hand on Rachel’s palm. He knew it was going to be a risky thing to do, but then it would be better to tell her what was going on than to keep it from her. He knew very well that secrets can't be hidden for long. “Nineteen years ago, I was locked in a burning car, left to die.” He began, he was looking at her, and he could see the look in her eyes. “I was in that burning car, no hope for me to walk out of it alive, but then something miraculous happened.” “A girl, somewhere around

I made sure that there is nothing for them to lose, and I would also be doing things to make sure that nothing would take this honour from you.” Stevie was looking at his boss, they were smiling at each other, and it was clear that they were going to be doing something fun. “Good, also please make sure that there is going to be a lot of space for other things, so when the time comes for me to deal with the dirt.” Frank had a smile on his face.

“Nathan, you grew so much. I am so relieved. I thought the Specter bloodline was going to be gone forever, and there was no way for me to even do anything about it. I didn't know what I was going to even do.” Lancer looked at Nathan. Words couldn't explain the joy he felt seeing Nathan. It was like he was relieved. Nathan, who had known that there were some survivors from that horrid incident, never would have thought the old man would be part of them; he was sure that there was no way for any of the family members to even make it out. “I don't know what to say. I was shocked. That day, I thought I was done for. Inside that burning car, I could feel my own life coming to an end, but then the strangest thing happened. I was saved by a total stranger.” Nathan had a smile on his face. He looked at Rachel with a smile on his face. “I was saved that day, but then I never thought it would be the last day I would see my family.

Nathan got to Elena’s company, and he was not sure what had made her call him, but it was clearly something huge. He looked around and saw that there were eyes on him. “I wonder why they are looking at you that way. There has to be something else on their mind. Maybe they are shocked to see someone as handsome as you,” Carl smiled. He looked at Nathan, trying to understand what made the people around them look at Nathan like that. The General didn't even act like he was the one they were looking at; he didn't want to pay any attention to them. He knew there was something off, but he wasn't going to worry himself about it; there had to be something he would do. He walked to Elena’s office, he could still feel their prying eyes on his body as he was trying to make his way into the office. “I’m here…” He said as he walked in, the first person he saw was Steven, whom he was waiting for. But Nathan couldn't recognize Steven, he was looking at Elena and Rachel, a worried look on his fac

“Specter?!” Steven was looking at Rachel with a smile on his face. There was no telling why he had that look on his face, but it was clear that there was something making him smile. “Please tell me, is he in good health? I want to know if he is in good health.” The man was looking at Rachel, the smile still on his face. Elena was even more surprised than anyone else. There was no way she would have expected her customise to act like that, and it was not like he would do anything to harm Rachel, but he was being a bit creepy. “Mr. Lancer, I don't mean to be rude, but if I may ask, what is going on here?” Elena was looking at the man, trying to see if she would get an answer to her question. Steven turned to her, he had a smile on his face. “That necklace belonged to the family I used to serve as a butler, the Specter family. After a Ghastly accident, we thought they were all killed off, but that was not the case. One of them still lives!” Rachel was surprised, she didn't know what

Elena was coaching Rachel; there were things she didn't know how to navigate through, but Elena made sure that she was going to help her every step of the way, making sure that there was nothing going to make them dull. “So you are telling me you are one of the million-dollar companies here in Caldor, but no one in the city would even want to do business with you?” Rachel was looking at Elena, who was bringing out files, and she leaned in and started helping her. “Yup, they see me as someone they can't trust, yet not knowing what I could help them. But let’s leave that, we have customers from all around the world, and they are loyal customers who would do anything to make sure that we keep working together.” Elena brought out a file and smiled. “Like this man, he has been working with me for the past eight years, one of the first people who started working with me.” Elena kept the file on the table, she had a smile on her face, and it was clear to Rachel that the customer was one

“There has to be an explanation for all this. I know it's not the best move, but I invited him here to make sure I would be able to get something out of him.” Frank was looking at Steveie. There was no way any of them would even think of the kind of man they were inviting to the party. It was clear he was someone they were meant to be wary of, but then there was no sign showing he was that bad. “Sir, we are still trying to find out what he is capable of.” Stevie reminded him, he was not going to let his boss back down there. “We just need to make sure that nothing is going to be a bug when we would be trying to get something out of him.” “That is right! We have to make sure that there is nothing to going to be a problem. I believe you made sure to incite a few other people, this gala aside, the fact that we are trying to make sure that man is captured and questioned. We need to see that our esteemed guests would be happy and they won't complain about anything.” Frank was trying to

Nathan had gotten the invite to come to the Petroia’s party. it was not what he expected, but it was a step further in his plans, and he was not going to lose it no matter what. “So, have you made the arrangements for me to head there? Or am I going as a normal person?” He was looking at Carl, he knew that there was no way he would be entering the party like that. “They wanted to speak to you, but they didn't give the reason, and they also made you a VIP guest,” Carl told him he was looking at the file they had sent him. “From all I am seeing here, they want to make sure that you are going to be with the main man; it looks like they really want to have a word with you.” Nathan had a smile on his face, he knew they weren't trying to be friends with him or anything of that nature. He was sure that it was something concerning the whole issue with Lewis and who killed him.He opened the ledger on his table and pulled out a list, which was the names of the families that took the Specte
