Rise of the White Dragon

Chapter 42: Being Followed

Luan left the Dimas Corporation building with his mother and the three girls and eventually drove out onto the road. The building was in the city center, so he needed to take the highway back to Jurerê Internacional Beach.

The highway was very busy at that time; there were many cars close by. However, Luan was suspicious of a particular car that seemed to be following him. From time to time, he saw an all-black car acting suspiciously, and with his enhanced vision, he could see through the dark film of the car and saw one of the four men in the car point in their direction. It might have only been a coincidence, but Luan remained alert.

The car quickly turned in a roundabout while Luan controlled the steering wheel. He accelerated and saw the car in front slow down. When he was about to slow down, his red eyes spotted the same car as before in his rear view mirror!

That black Jaguar!

Luan had already passed some crossings, but the black Jaguar was still following him!

Luan's mind flashed with the possibility of a stalker, so he quickly thought of something. He fixed his eyes on the rearview mirror for a long time. The car that had come from the intersection earlier gradually slowed down while the car behind him continued to chase him.

"We are being followed. Do not look back or you will warn them," Luan warned the others.

"Okay, but what do you intend to do?" Maira asked, concerned. She was not afraid for Luan and Ingrid, since they had displayed how strong they were, but she, Catharina, and Cristina would still hardly be unharmed if an accident happened.

"Don't worry, mom. As long as I'm here, nothing bad is going to happen. I'm just going to lure them to a less busy place and then... Well, wait and see," Luan said with an indifferent smile.

"Now you are acting mysteriously with your mother?" Maira snorted playfully. She felt happy in her heart for having such a reliable child. Also, after she had heard what he just said, for some reason all of her previous worries were gone like the wind.

"Brother, are you going to kill them?" Catharina shivered at the thought. She led a normal life, and the thought of seeing her brother kill someone was not at all pleasant.

"No, but they are not going to get away with it," Luan responded nonchalantly and added, "Besides if they were sent by who I'm thinking they are… there are some things I want you and my mother to see."

Seeing that even when he left the highway and entered a rural area, the black Jaguar was still following him, a gleam passed through Luan's eyes as a scornful smile curved his lips. He saw that the street was empty and stopped the car.

"You can get out," Luan said to his mother and the girls.

The moment they left, Maira and the three girls saw the black Jaguar coming towards them at a reduced speed. It was then they saw Luan extend his two hands and a strong wind came out of his hands.

*Whoosh!*

Sounds of wind blowing echoed and the black Jaguar spun on the road, looking like a Beyblade. Before the car hit the wall of a house, a strong wind had stopped the car.

"Wait here," Luan said and started walking towards the black Jaguar. Inside, the car was a mess; the four men in the car had some bruises on their heads from hitting them against the car window.

"Get out!" Luan said loudly.

The minds of the four men were in disarray; they had not yet recovered, but upon hearing Luan's voice and when they saw the young man with white hair and red eyes looking at them, their bodies involuntarily shuddered.

However, when they gripped their guns, they felt more powerful and fearless. They got out of the car while pointing the guns at Luan.

"Boy, be nice and get inside the Jaguar. Otherwise, we will shoot," one of the men in black, who had a shaved head, threatened.

"Are you threatening me with these toys?" Luan frowned, and in the next instant, the four men were moaning on the floor, all their arms were broken, making the four men cry out in pain.

Luan moved so fast that neither Maira nor the three girls were able to keep up; it was as if he hadn't moved, and with cracking bones, the four men fell instantly to the floor.

Approaching them, Luan saw disguised fear in their eyes. It was as if they were looking at a freak. Of course, Luan didn't care about the look they gave him, and he put his hand on the head of three of them and said, "Sleep."

The bald man was the only one who stayed awake. He looked at Luan and almost peed in his pants. He had never been so scared before. "What- what are you going to do with us?"

Luan didn't answer; he just put his hand on the man's head, and in the next moment, Luan's eyes went black and his aura went white. When Luan did this, the man's eyes seemed unfocused, and he started to act robotically.

Luan waved to his mother and the three girls to approach and asked the man, "What was the intention of you guys when following me?"

Maira, Catharina, Ingrid, and Cristina held their breath for fear of not hearing.

"Kidnap Catharina." The man's voice sounded robotic as he said it.

"Why, and what did you intend to do when you kidnap Catharina?" Luan asked.

"We received $100,000 as payment for kidnapping her, and we would receive another $400,000 if we pretended we were able to **** her, and then the person who hired us would show up to save her." The man replied robotically.

"My God!" Maira covered her mouth and her body trembled. She couldn't help but imagine it and was terrified.

Worse off was Catharina; she was shaking with fear when she heard what the man had said. She couldn't imagine who would make such an evil scheme against her.

"And who is this person?" Luan made sure not to kill this man.

"I don't know the name, but I know his appearance since we received a photo of him for when he would show up to 'save' Catharina. He is tall, with approximately 190 cm in height, a well-shaved beard with short blond hair, and light brown eyes." Next, the man pulled out a photo from one of his pockets.

"Heh... As I suspected..." Luan's anger had reached the skies!

"That bastard!" Maira cried out in anger. She had never felt so outraged at that man before.

"My... my father?" Catharina knew that man was no good, but she didn't think he would go so far as to want to create trauma in her and then become the knight in shining armor who saved her.

"He must still be in the hospital, right?" Luan murmured with a strong intention to kill.

"Luan, as wrong as he is, you can't kill him. Not because I want him to live, but if he were to die, his family would not remain silent. Although he is a louse, his family is not so simple. You said yourself that he comes from a family with powers. Theirs would be even worse," Maira said, concerned for her son's safety.

"Don't worry, mom; I know what to do. Although I will not kill him, it does not mean that they is the only way and I have no alternative," Luan said ominously, "It's not just pills that can help you get stronger that I know how to make, after all."

"Are you going to poison him, brother?" Catharina said angrily, "I'd be totally for it. This bastard, he doesn't deserve to have a happy life. Even I... who am his daughter, he planned to do something so evil..."

"It is not a poison I intend to use, but something that could be considered worse," Luan said nonchalantly, "It's called the unlucky pill. Whoever eats this pill will always be unlucky in everything he does, and even worse, after each month, the chance of bad luck becomes more dangerous, to the point of the one who ingested it wanting to kill themselves. And the more time passes, the worse it gets... After that, even if he wanted to plan something against someone, everything would turn against him."

The arrival of a new year can bring us a great diversity of feelings. For those who had a good year, optimism can gain more strength, with the expectation that the next one will continue on the same path. Those who have gone through many difficulties, on the other hand, receive a new chance to leave their problems in the past and renew hope for a more pleasant future.

Having a difficult year is not exclusive to a few families. Whatever the reason, adversity accompanies the lives of many people, and it is not a very easy task to embrace positivity when we are experiencing so much adversity.

But perhaps if we think about how good it is to live free from problems, our strength will increase and optimism will be part of a larger portion of our time. We will enter the new year with renewed hope, with free space for happiness, moving further and further away from everything that brings sadness or hinders our prosperity!

Happy New Year!
