Chapter 539
Kevin and Richard had joined them, on their master's command. No one spoke a word at the table, they weren't just digesting the food they were throwing in their mouths, the entire group was also digesting the pieces of information they had consumed throughout yesterday.Each person has their own thoughts, and respects the individual’s privacy while they work through these thoughts.After dinner, the group went onto the roof terrace to chat and walk around a bit. The open-air terrace was wide enough for a light jigging to help them digest the food.During this time, the air among the group of three lightened up a lot. Smiles and laughter slowly found their way back into the hearts of these young adults, despite what they had just overcome hours ago.Terry turned out to be dealing with the kidnapping much better than Gerald had expected him to, and Terry confirmed that he was doing okay when they decided to chill out in the swimming pool. Juliet smiled warmly at Try, a glass of champa
Chapter 538
Despite what she and her father already know about Gerald, it was still quite stunning to hear the narration from the horse’s mouth.Death by lightning bolts that turned their once healthy bodies into charred corpses. This was how Gerald had killed Goliath Blanks, Mason Lambert, and James Wes.Then there's the narration of the death of those endless streams of assassins. Finally, he told them how he had to fight through a few tens of hybridized creatures to foil Lara Voss's plan to escape. In the end, she died as well.The group has moved to the couches at some point during Gerald’s narration. Juliet and her father had sat down on the couches, and so had Gerald. As for Terry, he stood to the side with Richard and Kevin.Juliet shared a glance with her father. “Gerald, you said the police have been alerted to the scene. Won't an investigation lead to evidence that the aristocratic families might be able to pinpoint towards you?”Gerald shrugged his shoulders.“It doesn't really matte

Returning to the administrative building at Westbridge University, it was already early into the next day when Gerald showed up at the chancellor's office to find both the Dalton family's father and daughter working hard on their laptops.Professor Julian Dalton sat behind his wide desk, while Juliet sat on one of the soft couches, doing her part, when Gerald walked in with the AFSB Squad-9 bodyguards, Terry right behind him.“Jules, look who I brought with me.”Juliet and her father gazed up to find a haggard-looking Terry smiling slightly with a hand wave that he perceived to be cool made, but was actually awkward, especially with how he looked in the moment.“Hey.”Chancellor Julian's eyebrows lifted with a slight smile on his face, relief washing over him as a major issue had just been dealt with.But the Chancellor-Professor was nowhere as happy and relieved as his daughter.Juliet's entire face lit up dramatically, eyes watering up as well as she slowly got up first, before lun

Gerald didn't even need to nod his head or say a word to confirm Terry's question. A slight smirk was all that was needed.Even though these two men have only known each other for two years, Terry has observed the subtleness with which Gerald tends to reply to questions that he's proud to answer - a calm reaction that overshadows a cocky side that he doesn't like to show out often.“It's high time the horrendous truths of those aristocratic families come to light. The lives of too many people have been destroyed because of them.”Terry had no more questions. At least, not right now. He nodded his head, speaking in a whispered voice.“I see.”The air in the car had changed, and Gerald turned to look at his friend, seeing him beyond the facade.“Buddy, tell me. Are you mad at me for ever hiding my true identity from you?”Terry didn't reply to this. Instead, he asked his own question.“Tell me about Juliet. Does she……”Gerald cut him off immediately with an answer. He knew Terry well e
Chapter 535
An hour later, the convoy was back on the high road, far away from the docks. A few minutes after Gerald, Terry , and the ASFB Squad-9 bodyguards left the Lambert family's docks, there was a threat explosion that destroyed every single thing at that port.The fire grew high until the sky, and as it turns out, Terry was the only one who was left surprised by this incident.The clueless guy who was the victim of an abduction about two hours ago, was now sitting in the rear seat of the most luxurious car in Gerald’s convoy, beside the man himself.He had turned around at the rear windshield to catch the sight of bright flames rising from the sky. He was in shock when he saw this.“Guys, look! There's an…..”It hasn't taken Terry more than a few seconds of him looking at his best friend, and seeing the nonchalance in his demeanor, for him to realize that the explosion at that port wasn't an accident at all.“You guys had it in your plan the entire time, huh?”Gerald glanced at Terry warm
Chapter 534
Kevin and Richard a glance before the chauffeur replied Terry Wommack.“The last time we heard from the boss….I mean, our master, was when he gave us a heads-up about this flood.”It wasn't lost on Terry that Richard had purposely switched his firm if addressing Gerald, from “Boss” to “Master”, but he couldn't give it the attention it deserved, not right now, not when he was too busy staring at the entrance of this tunnel.From where he stood, Terry could see it. The overflowing water that weirdly moved inward despite how high it was gushing. It was weird, and definitely controlled.Controlled! This made Terry realize what Chauffeur Richard had just said in response to his question about Gerald.“Holy shit! Chauffeur Richard, are you saying that Gerald created this flood that has now filled up the underground tunnels?!”Kevin was the one to reply to this with a proud smirk that he couldn't control.“Master Gerald didn't just fill up the underground tunnels, the entire underground sys
