Simon left the scene where Gregory was humiliating him. He has no plans on staying theri so they can continue to embarrass him. If he allowed that to happen before, he will not let that happen again now. But before Simon could even get away with the scandalous Gregory Holt, he was quick to grab Simon his arm and pulled him harshly. “Where do you think you’re going? You think you can easily ditch me after insulting me in front of these people?” Holt was scowling at Simon, his jaws were stiff and his eyes were sending daggers towards Simon. Simon looked down on Holt’s hand that was on his arm. He hated the feeling of this man on him. “Get your hands off me.” Simon stared at him with equal danger. He’s not going to let this man embarrass him further in this party. Simon had enough of his childish acts and he will teach Holt the lesson that he needed. But instead of getting intimidated by Simon’s reaction, Holt finds it funny. He thought that Simon was just acting tough. Gregory lau

Simon stared at Ashley’s manicured fingers that were wrapped around his arm. He wanted to burst into laughter with all her actions and fake smiles. It was actually her first time to voluntarily touch him without looking disgusted at him. Learning that he’s an heir of a multi-billion dollar company instantly made him look handsome and clean in Ashley’s eyes. “What are you doing?” he asked her, his voice stern , giving her that hint that he doesn’t like what she was doing. Ashley smiled at him, but Simon knew how fake that smile was. He knew Ashley’s real attitude and he’s not gonna be swayed that easily giving him those fake smiles and sweet voice. She pouted, trying hard to look cute in Simon’s eyes, but it only made him cringed knowing how she tried to act just so she can go back to his life and suck his wealth. “I just missed my husband. Why? Am I not allowed to miss you? It’s been months, Simon. I don’t really like Gregory, I was just forced to date him because he told me that

Simon woke up with a deadly headache, he felt like his skull would break in two. His visions were still blurry and the cold tile beneath him made him realize that he was on the same spot when he lost consciousness earlier.Memories came crashing. That woman, Candice, brought food and a bottle of champagne. And the next thing he knew, his head was spinning and he was losing consciousness.“Fuck!” He cursed as she cradled his head. His head was still spinning and he wanted to puke. “That, bitch!” He tried to stand but his body was still weak. He can't believe he was fooled by that woman!He just realized that he was being drugged by his neighbor and who knows what that woman took from his condo. With all his effort, Simon was able to stand. He supported his body by leaning on the kitchen counter. Yes, he was still in the kitchen. As his sight began to recover, he saw the empty glasses of champagne on the sink, it was already washed, of course. That woman wouldn’t want to leave trace

Simon received the address that was sent to him by Giovanni. He wasted no time, he immediately drove his car, the one he just purchased recently, his Lamborghini car. Elton, his newly hired driver and bodyguard wanted to go with him but Simon refused. He wanted to go there alone. “Mt. Giovanni will sever my head if I let you go alone, Mr. Morelli. He made it clear not to let you go without a companion. Elton was an ex-military who was assigned in Pakistan and got dismissed. Giovanni chose the guy among all who applied because of his combat skills and background about guns and man to man fight. He has a clean background Simon agreed when Giov and Marcus insisted on giving him a personal bodyguard. Simon could clearly manage to protect himself but the two don't want to take chances. “Just tell him I have a date and I don’t like being followed.” Simon pulled his coat, an ordinary coat with a cheap brand, and wore it. He had two guns tucked in his shoulder holster. Elton scratched h

Mr. John Graham was a resident of the state of North Carolina but he opened a storage locker in Seattle. That’s a far place and Simon wondered what was really inside that locker for the old retired cop to put it away from him. “It must have been so important, I guess.” Simon murmured to himself as he continued to scan the contents of the flash drive that Graham had given him. Aside from the agreement papers of the storage locker, Simon has not found any significant documents in it. He hailed a cab going to the address stated in the agreement papers. It was a local storage locker that looked like a warehouse. The security let him in without any questions. There was no one as Simon walked to the counter. An old lady with strawberry blonde hair manned the counter. She was chewing a gum and didn’t give Simon any acknowledgement as Simon entered. Her eyes fixed on her cellphone while she’s watching some kind of comedy show on it. Simon stood there a total of one minute but still the
