Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation

Chapter 1 - Hospital

Third person’s point of view

When Maddox arrived at the hospital, he ran straight to his parents, who were in the operating room. Maddox and Lowe were merely waiting outside at the OR, praying that their parents will be saved from the on-going operation.

Four hours later, two doctors came out of the operating room. The two walked toward the doctor with a sympathetic expression.

“I’m sorry, we did everything we could to save the patient. Your mother has a traumatic brain injury. Severe head injuries from the force of a car accident caused your mother to suffer brain trauma, which may have resulted in fatal outcomes, and she did not make it.” The doctor explained. Maddox expression hardened when he heard what the doctor said, he’s palms curled into fists, his knuckles shifting white.

“What about my father?” Lowe is the one who asks the doctor since Maddox can’t seem to restrain his anger and is about to launch a punch at the doctor.

The doctor went on to say. “Your father has died due to exsanguination, it indicates that he suffered a significant loss of blood that was essentially fatal. That’s a bit late for him when you were all able to bring him in.” Maddox couldn't take it anymore and rushed the doctor with a punch.

“How dare you say that? You’re a doctor, right? You should be doing everything just to bring them back to life, yet you have the guts to blame it on us.” Maddox spits at the doctor, his eyes burning with flame. Lowe stopped him just as he was ready to go to the doctor again.

“Bro, calm down. Kenzie and our cousins are coming!” Lowe grumbles in frustration, unable to stop Maddox from going ballistic. The doctor apologized again, turned out of sight of them, and went into the next room.

Maddox sat on the floor not knowing what to do. He can’t believe his parents are really gone. It just doesn’t feel real to him. He kept thinking about what he wished to say and the concerns he had asked about. He seems to have an empty space in his life right now.

Lowe’s nose flared. “The things that used to bring me comfort now leave me lifeless. It’s like I’m going along with the movements, but I’m not really here,” he said, clinching his jaw while standing in front of Maddox.

“We might never fully recover from losing Mom and Dad, yet I hope we will find some comfort in knowing how deeply they love us and how grateful we are to have them,” Lowe stated, staring at Maddox with shed tears in his eyes.

“Come on, get up. We have something entertaining to do.” Lowe nudged Maddox.

Maddox is still thinking about their parents. In general, he’s thinking that might be the ideal plan of action, considering Sullivan, Maddox’s cousin, despises Finn Dixon just as much as they do. They have attempted to take down Finn Dixon for quite some time, but they have been unable to do so due to his numerous government accomplices as well as the illegal activities they execute. They need to gather all of the information about Finn Dixon so that they can use it against him. That includes his niece, Sariel, who has become one of his accomplices.

"MT1!" They all turned as their sisters whimpered. She hurried up to Maddox and held her, weeping on his shoulder as he held her. He hugs his sister back, knowing she is the closest to their parents. Aster’s the one who will suffer the most among their siblings since she is more used to spending time with their parents.He caresses her back, assuring her that everything is going to be fine. Even Maddox himself is at a loss for where he should start.

Maddox's cousins and their other siblings arrived and left her with them because they were going on a mission 'supposedly'. They have two goals to accomplish. Finn Dixon will die. His niece will pay for everything.

Finn and Sariel, on the other hand, were throwing words one at a time.

"Uncle, it was not part of the entire discussion. Why do you have to crash into their car?!" Sariel was on the verge of panic when his uncle’s speeding the car and suddenly halted it, making the tightness in her chest ease.

“Shut the hell up! The Ventura’s siblings are chasing after us while we are chasing their parents car, what do you want me to do, then?” Finn’s barks back at Sariel’s face.

"It's your mistake to be huh, Maddox, and only the business he runs is what we should destroy; why do you have to involve his parents?" Sariel hissed.

Finn’s jaw clenched. “They are the Ventura’s parents, Do you think they will do nothing to prevent us from destroying their company?” Sariel’s mouth snapped shut.

“What if Maddox’s parents is dead? What are we going to do?” Sariel asked her uncle nervously. Anger shines in Finn’s eyes as he gaze at Sariel’s face, tears shimmers in her eyes.

Finn’s spits at Sariel. “This is not my problem to deal with. Get out of the car, now!” Sariel’s jaw dropped. “You’re going to leave me here in the midst of nowhere?” Sariel asks, batting her eyelashes.

“In the count of three, if you’re not out in my car, I’m going to shove you out myself, I swear to the devil,” Finn’s warns. Releasing a shaky breath, Sariel carefully took steps out of the car. The quicker she moved, the quicker she could get the hell out of there.

When she stepped out of her uncle's vehicle, Finn drove it away from Sariel. When she sets aside to make her way to the side, the SUV abruptly stops in front of her, and someone grabs her inside, abducting her. Tears hit Sariel's eyes, but she wiped them away. She did not protest because she hadn't come to have the strength following today's incident.
