Drax gripped the steering wheel tightly as he navigated the crowded streets. Cara sat beside him, her eyes fixed on her phone."We're almost there," she said, her voice low and pressured.Drax grunted as his his eyes scanned the road ahead. He hated hospitals. Hated the smell of disinfectant and the sound of beeping machines. As they turned into the hospital parking lot, Cara pointed to a vacant spot. "There."Drax pulled into the spot and killed the engine. Then, in unison, they opened their doors and stepped out onto the pavement.Holding Cara's hand, they rushed into the hospital and soon met with a nurse at the nurse's station who directed them to room 3 on the VIP suites where Cara's father was admitted.Taking a lift, they went to the fourth floor and located the room. When Cara saw her grandfather lying on the bed unconscious, she gasped and clasped her hands on her mouth."Oh my God…" Cara muttered as she stepped closer to him. A maid was tending to the older man and she sto

"Drax, are you okay?" Cara asked while Drax looked around, wearing a frown on his face. His system was still sending waves and waves of warning his way. But Drax could not see any threats around."Yes, I'm fine-" he stopped when he turned to Cara and found her frozen on the spot. Her lips were parted, eyes fixed on a spot, and the gentle humming that once livened the restaurant instantly died down.Drax gently stood up from his seat and looked at other customers. They were all frozen as well. Even the drinks weren't spared as a customer's glass that was being rocked in his hand earlier, slanted toward the right, almost spilling the amber coloured champagne."What is going on right now?" Drax asked his system. The blue light appeared in his mind's eye.[He's here]The system replied to him. Drax's brows furrowed as he kept looking around."Who's here?" He asked again, and suddenly, the floor began to vibrate. Drax took a step back as a large crack suddenly appeared on the ground and e

"Jason, guess who I just saw right fucking now!" Kira gritted her teeth as Jason picked up the call from the other side of the phone."Who?" Jason asked, his tone discordant and harsh, but Kira didn't sense it. She was too angry to pick up hints."It was my good-for-nothing ex-husband. That trash really has gotten his hands dirty!" She yelled as she dug her fingers into her hair, clawing at it.Jason let out a sigh, but Kira couldn't believe her ears."Are you even listening to me? I'm telling you something serious right now. That bastard allegedly bought our wedding car. What the hell are we supposed to do now? So many things aren't connected!" She said again."Your ex is now the acting CEO of Blackview Incorporated. I got fired today. And I heard them calling him Drax. It's fucking crazy," Jason dropped the bombshell.Kira's heart skipped a beat while she received the news. "What do you mean you got fired? How did Alex or Drax or whatever his name is I don't fucking care, get your

The car parked with a subtle screech in front of DQ cars dealership, and Drax stepped out. He gazed at the building for a moment before he gently approached while the driver hurled off to the garage.The security men shot him glares as he walked into the building. He ignored their looks and was soon greeted by a large, open reception space. DQ cars dealership was the best in the city, and Drax had done his research."Are you Mr Drax who I spoke with on the phone?" A tall, lanky man appeared and took a stare down at Drax, sizing him from head to toe. Although Drax wore an expensive suit, the years of ill-treatment still took it's toll on his general appearance."I am. And what was that about you not having my proposed car in stock anymore?" Drax questioned him, but the man sighed, paying little to no regards to Drax. Of course, Drax recognized him as the manager."I'm sorry to inform you sir, but that car you wanted has been purchased already. We got a higher offer for it. But I can s

"How do you see your office, Drax?" Cara asked as they stepped into an elegant office with polished hardwood floors and floor-to-ceiling windows. A stunning executive desk, crafted from mahogany, anchored the room as soft, golden lighting and elegant artwork completed the space, creating a serene and professional atmosphere perfect for high-level meetings and focused work."It's beautiful," Drax replied and nodded his head while he gently approached the desk, trailing his fingers on it. Cara approached him."Here's my family's black card. It has one hundred million dollars inside it. It's all yours to spend on some accessories," she said and handed him a card with the Blackview family crest engraved on it."How did you make such an accurate prediction on my grandfather's business? It was almost as if you could see it coming," she asked.Drax turned to her. "I have experience in that field. Lots of experience," he said."Well, it has served you excellently. My family will ensure that

"I'm not a thief. Do not say what you don't know," Drax fumed while the accusation hit him, but the woman scoffed in response."You're supposed to be on your knees begging for your life right now! You look like the beggar that came earlier today for alms giving. How dare you break into this house to steal?" She yelled again, waving her hands in the air in an exaggerated manner.Drax was beyond angry at that point. Of all the terrible things that has happened to him that evening, this was by far the worse."Maybe I should just call the police on you. I don't know why the guards are taking so long to pick you up and throw you out of this house!" The woman added."You shouldn't speak to me in that manner," Drax replied to her gently, his face twisting into something darker."Or what? What will you do? Kill me? Are you also a killer? I should definitely get you locked up!" The woman screamed out loud."Why are you harassing my guest? Aren't you supposed to be in the kitchen cooking?" Cara
