The VIP room went silent and all eyes were on Alexander because of how frantic and unstable he had become. His eyes turned red and he gripped the phone in his hand so hard he could crack it. “Are you sure about all this?” Master Jones asked, to diffuse the situation. He was surprisingly calm about Ria’s involvement with Chris’ attack even with the evidence before him.“Yes,” Axe responded. “Butler Rico is this true?” Master Jones asked. At this point, Rico finally nodded in accordance and several sighs and gasps echoed in the room. Alexander had turned stoic as he was finding it hard to believe this was happening. And then Butler Steve was just purely disappointed. While Master Jones looked at Alexander with a stormy gaze. “What do you think we should do?” Jones asked Alexander. “Master…” Alexander answered, confusion setting in. For the years he stood by Jones’ side, he had dealt with a lot of traitors but now that he was faced with his sister’s traitorous attitude, he didn't k

Two days had passed since Chris had woken up and now, he was being discharged from the hospital with bandages still wrapped around his body. But then he forced himself to become agile, knowing Ria was probably wrathing away in the den of The Reds. Added to that, the company stocks had become even more shaky after two days of the news of his death, circulating and the reporters were still trying to hunt for information. “What will you do to Ria when she finally confirms that she indeed tried to kill you?” Butler Rico couldn't hold back the question from his mind.“I don’t know.” Chris shrugged, his eyes squinting as he put on a white shirt, getting dressed for the day’s event. It was the early hours of the day but it was already obvious Chris was going to have a long day. “I have to see her to know whatever was going through her head,” Chris concluded. He looked strong and unbothered by what happened but deep down in his heart, he was hurt. Betrayal was never nice. Soon, he got dr

“What did you say?” Mateo gasped in disbelief. Victoria! That was his mother. “I am sure you do know who Victoria is, right?” Dan Troy struggled to get up on his feet, his stomach churning uncomfortably due to the kick, however, he was determined to get his job done. “From your eyes, I can see you know her.” Dan continued, a smirk dancing on his lips. “She is your mother, right?” He taunted. “You bastard!” Mateo snarled, rushing toward Dan and immediately he caught him by the neck. He slammed Dan’s back on the wall with a loud thud and the force created a crack in the wall. “Hmmm…” Dan choked, as he blinked his eyes, trying to take in the pain that was raking through his body. “What do you know about her?” Mateo demanded, his grip tightening around Dan’s neck. He didn't know what to think as he had not received news about his mother that day. If anything at all had happened to her, he would be the first to know. “I… I...” Dan choked, struggling against Mateo’s grip. “I know th

“What?” the old lady’s eyes bulged out in surprise and she didn't even know what to say. She looked deflated and concerned which made Chris think that she wasn't entirely hateful toward her son. “Yes. I want to kill Mateo.” Chris responded, still maintaining his smirk. “You…” Victoria pointed at Chris, still unable to believe what he had just said. “Why?… you look so young, why would you harbor such a thought?” Again, Chris was taken aback and he wondered whether she was concerned about him or her son dying. “What do you mean I look so young? Do you think I am not qualified to kill your son?” Chris chuckled. “No… not that–” “I mean, you said several men have come to you because they were against your son, why do you seem so surprised that I want to kill that bastard?!” Chris yelled, his voice raising a notch higher as he spoke every word. Victoria seeing this, took a step back, her eyes now filled with fear. And then she shook her head slowly as she spoke up, “Of all the people

Mateo looked from his mother and back at his hand which had been shot. He couldn't hold onto the gun anymore and it fell to the ground with a loud clash. However, when he looked back at his mother who had no iota of remorse on her face, he was determined to end her life. Seeing how hateful his gaze was, Chris immediately turned to Axe, “Take her out.” He ordered. He had to protect Victoria from Mateo now, no matter what. Also, he had to take Ria out of there. Quickly, he signaled Rico to take Ria up while Mateo was still reeling in his emotions. The whole thing was playing out and Mateo finally snapped from his thoughts. “No one moves an inch!” He yelled, seeing that his mother was being taken back to the room she came from. However, Axe didn't stop, he wasn't following Mateo’s order after all. “Stop that bitch!” Mateo yelled at his men, ordering them to go after Axe and Victoria. He then yelled after them, “I will fucking kill you, mother!” He was yelling so loud that he didn't
