News about the death of Riccardo spread worldwide like wildfire but no one dared to reveal the killer. Riccardo walked into the Lion's den and never returned. From the detailed visual of his death, seeing Casper playing with life and knives, Mafia Lords had to come around for a meeting concerning him. Those who had met him only had grave news concerning him and those who hadn't, never wanted to cross paths with him. Those who were sending threats concerning their request for ammunition which had been delayed due to investigations quickly withdrew their grievances. Some of the Mafia Lords also thought that what happened between Riccardo and Casper exposed Riccardo's weakness. They saw themselves to be stronger than Riccardo and could defeat Casper. Whichever way, they still couldn't do without Casper, due to the request for ammunition. Going through other means might expose the gangs because of the quantities in which they were supplied. After the meeting, they concluded that they
"Grandpa, I thought you had left." Grandpa stiffened slightly at the sound of Casper's cold voice. He was aggravated about Casper appearing at this time when all he wanted to do was demoralize this unfortunate girl and make her regret her actions. Why didn't he guess that Casper might come here as well? He wiped the darkness in his eyes with an indifferent look before turning to face Casper. "I just thought I should say Hi to Miss Nova," Grandpa gave Jenna a sinister glance before turning to face Casper again. From his indifferent tone, one couldn't decipher his real intentions. Casper glanced at Jenna and something flashed in his eyes. Was it because of how she was dressed, he couldn't tell but also knew that Grandpa was up to no good being here. "Why?" Grandpa gritted his teeth but relaxed them at the thought that Casper was still his grandson. He was the one who even named him so why should he be afraid of him? "You are the CEO, Casper but it doesn't make me useless does it?"
Jenna mulled over her options, not comfortable with the idea of seeing Casper again for now, especially after that night and what just happened in the office. Also, what she was going to discuss with him wasn't work-related so, she wouldn't be queried. Since Peggy was already waiting for her at the reception Casper could wait. That was his punishment for videoing their intimate act without her consent. She took the elevator and went down to the reception area. Peggy wasn't alone. She was accompanied by a hunky man with a gush appearance. A glance at him and Jenna discerned that he must have been beaten by a mob or something, due to the bruises covering the exposed areas of his body. Peggy ran to embrace her. "Jenna, why is your security so tight? They won't even let me upstairs," Peggy complained after breaking from the hug. The security matters at the Blade Towers were out of Jenna's domain. "I'm sorry Peggy, only staff are allowed upstairs unless you have a business appointment
Armando wasn't a fool. Indeed, he was there for revenge but after meeting Casper face to face, he wouldn't dare. Casper was nothing like he saw in the video and wouldn't dare to fight the Lion in his den with just a few bodyguards. The Casper he was seeing now was even more fierce, covering himself with darkness. Swiftly, he changed his main objective today, into business. As for his revenge, it wasn't what Casper expected. Now that he had seen him, he would set a trap for him, where he would die like a cockroach. For now, he just had to act up and wait for the right opportunity."Revenge? That's ridiculous, Mr Blade. I'm not as foolish as my brother. I'm here for business." Casper’s gaze was intense and even though he did not believe Armando, he didn't let it show. He carried himself with exceptional grace. "Alright then. Have a seat." Casper stretched his slender fingers to the chair in front of him. Without his glasses, his eyes looked like they were going to slash Armando at any
"Your friend, is it Kate?" Casper was deliberately trying to ignore Jenna's question while he sought confirmation for something else. Unfortunately, it only made Jenna even more suspicious because, over time, she kept thinking of the most suitable punishment for offenses like what Max did. "No, but you didn't answer my question. Where is Max?" Casper was relieved that it wasn't Kate which meant it was another friend. Now he wondered how many friends she had. Casper was only surrounded by family and didn't have any friends but Jenna had no family, except her friends. Her curious gaze didn't allow him to dodge the question like he wanted to. He just couldn't lie to her. "Dead." The indifference in his tone was scary. It was as if life and death meant nothing to him. "You killed him?" Jenna automatically shifted back slightly, as she thought about who Casper really was. What happened to the police and the law? Was he someone the police feared? The more she thought about it, the more h
It wasn't right but it felt good. He belonged to someone else but when they found themselves in this situation, it was clear that their passion burned like they belonged to each other. His lips were soft, his tongue diving into the corners of her mouth. She pressed her hand at the back of his head, deepening the kiss. Her whole being craved and accepted him. She didn't want him to stop and was ready to give him herself again when he suddenly recoiled and pulled away. Dissatisfaction, like a wave of cold breeze, froze her to the spot. He didn't want her. He didn't want to offend his arranged bride. It was well understood. Jenna's back against the wall dropped, her face fell. She must have seduced him with her outfit but he wasn't a fool. Casper's mind was clouded. He didn't know why he kissed her after that night. He wasn't someone who went back on his words. I'm sorry for doing that. I shouldn't have." He was right but why did her heart feel like it was going to tear? They weren't
Even Casper had seen through Hunter's emotions but didn't dwell on it. His only concern was Caleb. Why would he love someone else's woman? What kind of game was he playing? Peggy also didn’t seem to mind and kept smiling. Casper had been there for a while and seen all that had happened."Cathan, what is his result?" Casper asked, squashing the urge to throw so many questions at Caleb."Very good." Cathan wanted to burst with all the laughter bubbling inside of him. He knew that Caleb was messing with Hunter but couldn't find out the reason why he did that. It was also clear that Hunter loved Peggy but why did he only see her as a sister? He also wanted to know, which was the reason why he didn’t stop Caleb.Casper turned to Hunter, who was still looking red. "Will you be a shadow bodyguard?""Yes." Hunter smiled. Shadow bodyguard was more difficult than normal bodyguards because the person you are guarding doesn’t have to know but Hunter liked it because it would help him to keep an
The call connected on the first ring. From the anger emitted from Casper, Hunter was surprised by the calmness in his tone but when he realized what Casper was doing, he wanted to flee for his life. Casper was very tactical. "Mr Blade, is my request approved already?" Armando's voice sparked excitement as soon as he answered the call, which irritated Casper but he maintained the calmness. "It's still under investigation. As soon as its approved, a representative from our company will send you an invoice, and then you can proceed with the transfer of funds. Right after we confirm receipt of the transaction, the ammunition will be sent to you." "Oh, I wasn't patient enough to understand this the first time. So if it isn't about that, then why did you call?" Armando was curious. Someone like Casper wouldn’t call to just check on him."Since we are acquainted and you don't bear a grudge against me for what happened to your brother, I see you as a friend and need some security advise."
