REBORN: Revenge

"It would be even more pointless because if this guy tries to investigate on the matter, even though we made sure that there is no trace that could lead back to us, he will know that there is someone who is onto him," Zack said with a serious tone. It worries him that after all that they did so far is going to be all for nothing if the man James is talking to is going investigate what happened to James yesterday.

The man might get too cautious and Arion and them might have a hard time getting the result that they want.

With the same worry as Zack, Alfonso voice out his thoughts, "We don"t want him to be too cautious about us and definitely, we don"t want him to cut ties with James right now."

"Except for the part of cutting ties with James, that is what I want that man to do." Arion said with a smirk, then he continued, "Knowing that there is someone onto him, it will cause him to panic. He tries to investigate and couldn"t find any clue about us, it will cause him to make a mistake eventually, and that is when we strike."

It"s an imperfect and a long shot of a plan, but Arion is willing to take chances on wanting to make this plan work. He truly hopes that there is no need for him and the other make another plan if this current plan doesn"t work because time is not on their side at the moment.

Zack and Alfonso are having second thoughts about the plan Arion wants to go through with, but they could only sigh and accept it. There are a lot of things that they need to be done, making sure that the young ones are ready for possible dangers that will come, making sure that their defenses against their strong enemy is strong enough to protect them, and also making sure that they have thorough plan to counterattack.

Just like what they all been saying for a while now, time is not on their side.

"All I can say is that I hope this plan of yours works, Arion because doing this and not have a good result at the end of all this is wasting all of our resources and time," Alfonso said.

After saying that all of them continued to listen to James and the man"s conversation.

"Hmmm… I truly want to believe that you are telling me the truth, James because I don"t really want to waste my resources on you when you actually lied to me." Having a thorough investigation of what happened to James yesterday will cost him money, and he doesn"t like to waste money. It"s better for James to tell him the truth now before he finds it himself and wastes his precious money.

"I am telling you the truth. Why on earth did I even bother myself to rush to here just to meet you? As much as it pains me, I am putting my pride aside and ask you to help me get what I want." James frustratedly said. 

His wife already drained most of his energy because of her annoying voice and now, this man in front of her is draining all the energy that is left in him by asking him if he is telling the truth or not. 

"What is it that you really want, James?" The man asked.

"What I want is similar to what you want. You want the Coleman blood to disappear and what I want is to have all of the Coleman a.s.sets. With my help, there is a high chance for you to eliminate all the people whose blood is a Coleman. Once you eliminate them, you get what you want, and I get what I want because I will be the only one who"s inheriting all the Coleman a.s.sets." 

For the first time in James"s life, he is actually happy that he did not have a single drop of blood of a Coleman inside his body. If he is actually related to the Colemans by blood, he would have been dead the moment he met this man.

The man chuckled at James��� word. He finds is very funny hearing all that from James" mouth. "You made it sound so easy to eliminate those vile Colemans." Through his connections, he was able to find out about James" real ident.i.ty and he is actually happy that he is able to use James in any way that he wanted to get his goal done.

"What"s that supposed to mean? You"re a mafia lord, I"m sure that you have a way to eliminate them without breaking a sweat. The Colemans might be powerful, but they are only powerful because of their riches." 

At this point, the man laughed. Marcus considered James as his dear son, and the man is amused that Marcus didn"t share all of the Coleman family secrets to James. "Oh, Marcus. You"re going to make you eldest son furious towards you, once I told him about your family"s organization." The man inwardly said.

James frowned when he heard this annoying laugh coming from the man in front of him. From what he can tell, he did not say a word that is actually funny. "Is there something funny with what I just said?" He asked.

"Oh, please, forgive me. It"s just that, I find it very amusing that you, the eldest son of Marcus, have no idea what the Coleman family is really about." The said in a teasing voice and that caught James" whole attention. "The Coleman family is not just about business and being one of the richest families in the whole world."

"You sound like you know a lot of things about the Colemans than me. So what it that you know that I have no clue about?" James is now irritated that this man kept on stopping every word that he is saying. "Why can"t he just say it? He clearly knows that I have no idea and I want to know what it is, so why is he messing around?"

"Yes. I do know a lot about that family more than you. The Coleman family, the main branch to be exact, runs an organization that eliminates specific targets. That organization is somewhat similar to any mafia organization that you know. So, in the end, it belongs to the dark side of the world."

There is no evidence that what this man is saying is the truth or now, but for some reason, he actually thinks that what he said the whole truth.

"I"m quite surprised that you, James Coleman, who belong in the main branch of that family doesn"t have any idea about the "organization."" It"s clear that this man is trying to get in James" nerves, and James knows that, but he has no intention of stopping himself from getting pulled into this man"s scheme.

Though it is the feeling of being treated like an outcast by his so-called father once again, for some reason, he is not all the surprise that he wasn"t informed about the organization this man is talking about.

"I guess it"s all about having the same blood as them all over again," James said with bitterness in his tone. He may be part of the main branch of the family, but he doesn"t have the one thing that they all have. Having the same blood flowing through their veins.

The man smirked when he saw the expression James is making. At first, he is not actually sure that James on his side or not, but now that he is seeing the face James is making, he is now sure which side James is on. And he is actually quite pleased about it.

"Well then, I have wasted all the time I have left. I need to go." The man said.

"Wait. You"re going? B-But…"

"I believe every word that you said. Also, we can discuss more of our alliance in three days" time." Without waiting for James to say a word, the man left with a satisfied smile on his face.

After listening to all of that, Arion has this unreadable expression plastered on his face. Zack and Alfonso, don"t know what to say. The situation between James and the rest of the Coleman family is about family problems. 

"James is being manipulated, but then again, it is his stupidity that is at fault," Arion commented.

"Well, it wasn"t pleasant hearing all that, but we did get some information. That mysterious man wants to kill every member of your family and that he is a lord of some mafia organization." Out of all organizations in the world, what Zack hates the most is the mafias, and just thinking about them is making his blood boil.

"Search every notorious and powerful mafia in the whole world. Cross-reference everything that might connect us." Arion didn"t bother making another comment and just left the premises.
