Back at the military base, a figure watched from cameras as Carl Gerald and Debra Zachs interacted. As they left the room, the figure left its place as well.Unbeknownst to Carl Gerald, he left the gold key out in the open, on top of the counter by the bed.The figure had been searching for the key for a long time, and the person who’d protected it with his life seemingly left it out like it was of no use.“Fools will be fools.” The figure chuckled softly. Upon arriving at the room, it opened the door and walked to the counter, grabbing the key. It peered at the key for a while, occasionally letting off small laughter that lacked sanity, “May the Black Holocaust never end!”With that, the figure left the Military base, undetected, almost like a shadow without form.After a short while, Lieutenant Alex entered the room. He felt like something was missing, but he couldn’t put a finger on it. He scanned the room but soon let it off as nothing more than a feeling.“Something's quite not

Back at Austin Tyler's home…“Baby, what’s wrong?” Tiffany Raymond asked Austin Tyler for the umpteenth time.Austin Tyler had been unable to rest properly, even since the incident at the banquet. Truly, his family had been banned from all partnerships, endorsements, investments… almost everything that had to be associated with Vesta Bank, the most powerful group in the country.And as his father had said, his share of inheritance from the family business had been taken from him with immediate effect.Austin Tyler barely slept from thenceforth, his eyes had dark circles around them, and he was gaunt and pale, a shadow of his former, boisterous self.“It’s nothing.” Austin Tyler tried to convince Tiffany Raymond.“That’s a huge lie, what happened? Don’t tell me that ‘Carl Gerald’ is what is on your mind.” Tiffany Raymond immediately scoffed.“No way! An idiotic and broke fool like him doesn’t even have a rightful space in this universe, not to talk of my mind.” Austin Tyler became anno

Evening came, Juliet Marcus woke up feeling a little bit rejuvenated.She sat up with ease, much unlike earlier in the morning, and her head didn’t hurt as much. ‘I’m in a hospital…’ Juliet Marcus looked around the small room. As she moved her broken arm, she felt it brush against something, or rather, someone. Carl Gerald was sleeping soundly while leaning on the bed.It looked like an uncomfortable position, but somehow, Carl Gerald was able to still manage that painful position as he slept soundly.Juliet Marcus was much disposed to walk as most of her pains had worn off. She raced for a cabinet and bulled out a bedsheet, pulling it over Carl Gerald with her good arm.Afterwards, Juliet Marcus continued to look around. She spotted her laptop on a desk in the room. Immediately Juliet Marcus could relate it with her conversation that morning. ‘Debra Zach's really tried to find it.’ Juliet Marcus shook her head. Juliet Marcus immediately switched on the laptop and entered the passw

Carl Gerald immediately muttered to himself, his voice was very low, so low that Debra Zachs couldn't believe Carl Gerald had just said a thing.“I only did it so you’d show off in front of that woman, your ex-wife, I presume.” Debra Zachs said matter-of-factly.Carl Gerald could only shake his head. Debra Zachs had a very diverse way of thinking. Carl Gerald and Debra Zachs stood by the Roll Royces and stared at Tiffany Raymond and Austin Tyler before stepping towards the door.Austin Tyler and Tiffany Raymond couldn't help but run their eyes full of hatred all over Carl Gerald and Debra Zachs.At some point, Tiffany Raymond started thinking of being the one who had lost in her divorce to Carl Gerald but she immediately fazed it off.'Carl Gerald is definitely faking this lifestyle, there is no way he can afford this lady, I mean look at her skin radiate…and those Armani custom made polo that Carl Gerald is wearing are actually fake.’Tiffany Raymond's thought went on rampage as she

Mrs Madison Raymond's voice was laced with a mixture of humiliation and disdain.“Let me handle this,” Carl Gerald said, as he saw Debra Zachs convulsing from anger and determination.“Ugh, Mom, leave them. Animals like them have made us waste thirty minutes of the CEO’s time. Let’s go before he thinks we’re not coming again. After all, we’re going to land a two billion dollar contract, it’s best not to get involved with bad luck.”“It's bad luck that Carl Gerald has been paddling since I met him…he is such a loser!”“I actually wonder what brought you two to this suite!”“If I were you, I would leave immediately before something goes missing!”Tiffany Raymond immediately added as she stared disdainfully at Carl Gerald and Debra Zachs.“You two better leave, before we call the security to dispose of you two!” Austin Tyler yelled as he looked down on them.As he was about to leave, Carl Gerald said loudly, “You’re not going to get that contract, Austin Sebastian Tyler.” Carl Gerald imm
