‘Again.’ Cesar and Lewelyn didn’t hear what Xavier said at the end of his sentence. If they did, they might realize that they invited the wrong person to come to their house. “Welcome to the Fugito mansion, Mr. CEO,” Cesar greeted. Xavier only chuckled with a throaty voice, which made the women around blushed instantly. His glossy black hair, thick brows, and sharp eyes were enough to capture the hearts of those who laid their eyes upon him. And the red of his eyes? Although it was akin to that of the crimson blood, it couldn’t be anything but attractive. Unfortunately, despite his breathtaking appearance, the maids could not imagine having a try with him. It was because Madam Lewelyn already set her eyes on the handsome guest. And to add salt to the wound, Lewelyn is the prettiest woman in this place. “We prepared a lot for your visit, Sir,” Lewelyn said. Gian, Xavier and the other men looked at the Madam of Fugito. Her beauty was enough to coerce the people around into turn
[“Anyway, whatever the case, stay away from our boss. I heard that there are fights between the siblings' inheritance. That’s why our boss is always on edge.”] Xavier remembered what Frederick said to him during their last night working in the Fugito mansion. And how did Xavier answer to him? [ “What does it matter to people like us?” ] Back then, Xavier believed that normal people like them should not butt into the feud between conglomerates like Cesar. So, he did not pay attention that much to Frederick’s words, not until he became Haiden - the foster son of the Black family. ‘I can’t believe that the things I didn’t consider important will be useful now.’ When he remembered this, Xavier asked Gian to investigate Cesar’s family. After the old Chairman of Fugito died, there was a will that states that Larry Fugito, the second son of the family, should inherit the enterprises. Cesar was in fury because he is the oldest son and everyone expected that he would inherit it. As they
“Xavier.” Xavier heard her call his name. It was not a mistake. He held his breath for a short second as he stared at Lewelyn. ‘Did she recognize me?’ Xavier believed that there was no way Cesar or Lewelyn would recognize him as the driver they tried to kill because his face changed. So why?! Why did Lewelyn call him by that name? “Pfft…” Lewelyn laughed. “Your expression is funny,” she said, pointing at Xavier. “Right now, you look like someone who saw a ghost. Were you that flustered that I called another man’s name when I am with you? Did it annoy you that much?” Xavier blinked his eyes before he slowly breathed out. ‘She did not recognize me,’ he let out a sigh of relief with this thought. “At least, I saw a change in your reaction,” she said then cupped his cheeks. “But don’t worry. Right now, I will only focus on you.” Lewelyn looked at his lips and whispered, “On us.” She tilted her head and about to kiss him but Xavier moved away and asked, “That Xavier.” Lewelyn
“I will kill Cesar,” Lewelyn said.Xavier looked at the center table where there is a recorder bug underneath. The one who planted the bug is Merly, Lewelyn’s new maid and the spy Xavier sent in this house.“I will definitely kill that old man,” Lewelyn repeated through her clenched teeth.While she was not looking, Xavier grinned.“You can’t kill him, Lewelyn,” said Xavier.Lewelyn was confused as she stared back at him, while she was still sitting on his lap. Why did he say that she can’t kill Cesar?Isn’t he on her side?Before she could ask why, Xavier held her nape and drew her closer, as if hugging her. He placed his mouth near her ear and whispered.“You can’t dirty your own hands. You need someone to kill him for you.”‘Just like what you did to me,’ Xavier added inwardly.Lewelyn moved back and observed the man, who shared his idea.“Someone to kill for him?” she asked.He nodded his head and explained, “As of now, Cesar is standing at the top of the world. If you kill him an
Everyone in the Black E-Commerce company was working twice as much as usual.The SUPREME virtual box in Black E-Commerce is the key for reviving the company. Since it malfunctioned before they could launch it in public, the company is on the verge of bankruptcy.What’s the point of raising the sales by 3% if they lost all the work they did for half a month?“The Black E-Commerce is doomed.”That is what Xavier wanted everyone to think.Days passed by.Tomorrow, the start of the third week of the month, will be the day they will launch the new Project.Unfortunately, despite everyone’s effort to revive the virtual box application, it didn’t work well. Mainly because there’s a spy who kept on ruining the software.Because of this, Gabriel told his foster son to come and meet him in his office.On Xavier’s way to Gabriel’s office, he met Haiden’s sister, Rose Black.Wearing a long sleeping dress, Rose blocked his way. She crossed her arms and smiled at him dogmatically.“Your complexion
“IT WAS A SUCCESS!?” Rose asked in an unusual loud tone to her secretary. Sonny lowered his head as he answered, “Y-Yes, Ma’am. They launched it today.” “B-BUT H-HOW?! DIDN’T WE RUIN THE APPLICATION BEFORE THE LAUNCHING DATE?! DID THEY MAKE A NEW ONE BEFORE TODAY? “About that, I asked our Spy. Last week and this week, he said that he succeeded in interfering with the software before the launch date. He reassured me that the company cannot launch. But today, it happened. And now I can't contact him anymore.” Rose perched down on her seat while thinking where did things go South. “T-Then, what is the result of the SUPREME LAUNCHING?” Rose nervously asked. Secretary Sonny hesitated to tell the truth. But he knew he mustn’t lie. “After they launched SUPREME, tens of thousands of customers signed up in the first month, agreeing to pay a $100 yearly fee. The stock soared, regaining $4 million and closing at $1.5 million.” It was a success. Haiden revived E-Commerce and raised the
Brethart threw everything he saw through his fish-lense view. He was palpitating out of rage. Why won't he when he heard that Haiden revived the Company that he threw away? Brethart would be discharged from the hospital today and he hoped to hear some pleasant news on his way home. But the current situation did not allow it to happen. “Ahhh!” the nurse squealed when Brethart made a mess inside the hospital room; throwing things, kicking everything. Her shout caught Brethart's attention, and she regretted stealing his interest. Brethart looked at the scared nurse and approached her. “What are you looking at?” Brethart asked the woman. The nurse nervously moved backward as Brethart walked closer. He looks like he would hit her anytime. “I ASKED WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT YOU F*CKING B*TCH?!” Brethart shouted before he raised his hand to the nurse. Quickly, his mother Louisa stepped in between. “Brethart!” she called and held her son’s arm. Louisa looked at the frightened girl
An hour ago before Xavier arrived in the penthouse….“That is the copy of the Ledger I found in the bar,” Gian said to Xavier while driving the car.Xavier looked through the documents.The reason why Gian and Xavier chose Spade’s bar to meet Cesar and to have a company dinner at the same time, is for Gian to search for Spade’s ledger in that place.While Xavier was busy talking with Cesar, Gian was searching for the ledger. When he did, he quickly made photocopies of them. He’s certain that Spade would throw a tantrum once the ledger went missing.Upon checking, Xavier saw familiar names on the Ledger.[“Black”]“As you can see, Spade has transactions with the Black family. Spade dealt with human trafficking with Black,” Gian explained.“Then, it is possible that the Black family provides people to Cesar so that Cesar can use them for testing his drugs,” Xavier said.“You said that you saw the drugs on Haiden’s father office and that resembles the medicine Cesar gave you. Right?”“Y
