CHAPTER 162
Liam's POV“Mason!” I exclaimed. “Mason Wells?!”I had dedicated a lot of time searching for him. I had gone through all the nooks and crannies. I came across just to find Mason but I must admit that I never really believed that I'd ever find him but here he was!Mason didn't smile or anything. He looked even weaker than Hans and appeared to be jumpy with his eyes darting here and there in fear. I understood that he would take a while to recover from the horror he's been through or perhaps he might never recover.“I found it in one of the Blackwood's secret warehouses I raided,” Locke explained. “The boy had been kept for a long time for reasons we don't really understand and he was lucky I found him that day. You see Liam, most of us have been busy too.”I nodded in acknowledgment. Locke had done perhaps even more than I had ever done and I was grateful for that. I was happy that he had given his all to fight the corrupt system that had stripped him of his position when he chose to b
CHAPTER 161
Liam's POVI immediately rushed forward as a result of Sarah's screams with my hand instinctively pulling out the pistol from my waist. Ryan was right behind me too.I immediately pushed Sarah protectively behind me and stormed the house with a gun at the ready.There was no one in sight.I quickly scanned the room, looking for any unwanted host who might be hiding but the place looked like we were the first people to step foot in it for a very long time.“What the matter?” Ryan asked nervously behind me.“I.. I don't really see anyone..” I replied uncertainly and took a daring step closer and then it hit me.There was a lot of equipment scattered around the room as if it was an abandoned laboratory but that wasn't what made Sarah scream. In the far corner of the room was a table and on that table, a man was tied or rather what was left of a man. The flesh had completely rotten and the clothes were just bits of rags now.I frowned and looked around the room taking in the rest of the
CHAPTER 160
Liam's POV“Sarah!” I called immediately. I burst into the safe house. My heart was still beating very fast, too fast to be honest. At this point it wasn't beating because of mom, no. I was lucky that this agent Londonderry had reacted quickly pulling my people out of harm's way before the house was burnt but be that as it may, I now had an equally big problem to deal with.Sarah was sitting in a chair at the far corner of the room and something pressed at the back of her head with a med kit open in front of her.My eyes quickly darted to the side where she had set up her laptops and computers and I groaned painfully. The screens were smashed, the keyboards were destroyed and the CPUs were all smashed too!“Melissa!” Sarah spoke with tears in her eyes. “Melissa did this!” she said. “How…? Why..?” I asked dryly.“She.. she attacked me from behind! Knocked me out and trashed the whole place before leaving!” Sarah replied.“The phone! Where's the phone?” I asked in alarm.“She…” Sara
CHAPTER 159
Liam's POVI was truly frightened. I'd be a fool not to admit that I was. His words suddenly made my heart begin to thump wildly in my chest.I exchanged quick glances with Sarah and I could see the fear in her eyes too. Blackwood's words sounded like a death sentence!“What the matter?” He asked following my silence. “No witty comeback? No snappy remarks?”I wanted to talk, I really wanted to say something back to him but I was afraid my words would fail me.. I didn't want him to get that satisfaction that he had successfully gotten under my skin.I lunched forward, hit the end call button and disconnected the call.“Get agent Londonderry!” I told Sarah. “Reach him now! I want you to get to him now!”My words carried urgency and desperation. Sarah didn't wait to be told twice. She knew exactly what was at stake. She knew the dangers that lay ahead so she immediately got to work with her fingers flying across the keyboard with speed.While Sarah worked, I paced to and fro nervously. I
CHAPTER 158
Liam's POV“Its all over for you now.” Blackwood growled as he held up his phone for me to see the screen.My eyes widened as I had a good look at the screen and realized what he was doing. He had secretly and one handedly sent a text to someone named Agent Londonderry!I was stupid to have let him keep his hands in his pocket as we spoke!“They’ll be here in under a minute. You should’ve stayed away kid.” Blackwood smiled smugly, still holding the phone up for me.For a while, I stared at the message on his screen. Because he had typed it one-handed and blindly, words were misspelled but the meaning still stood out clearly.I had to react, I had to act fast to get out of that situation but first…With all my strength and with everything I had left in me, I swung an unexpected punch at Blackwood's face.I heard the satisfying thud as my fist connected with his jaw knocking him instantly to the floor. I had always wanted to do that and it felt good!I was already scanning the area, ca
CHAPTER 157
Liam's POVI'd be lying if I claimed to know what was going on. With the levels of betrayal and backstabbing, I really wasn't sure of who to trust. I really wasn't sure of who to call my own at least until this whole thing blew over.Ryan had barely stepped out of the room when he returned only this time he didn't come alone.Right there behind Liam was Silas Scratch! The most dreaded assassin in the history.“Well look what we have here.” Silas grinned. “A little reunion by the looks of it.”Silas had a gun pinned to the back of Ryan's head and another one aimed directly at me.Charles wanted to react but I knew he had no time. There was no way we could beat Scratch when he had his fingers on the trigger.“Don't even think about it, Old man.” Scratch grinned. “Move and Junior here gets his brains blown out!”Charles slowly held up both hands.“What do you want?” Charles asked.“Why don't you ask Junior here?” Scratch nudged the back of Ryan's head with his gun.My mind quickly began
