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
Brethart knows who Odeen is. He was assigned to work with Odeen for the human trafficking deal. But the last job failed and Brethart got hurt in the process.So, why would Gabriel bring Odeen to meet the other members of the family?‘Is he going to replace me with Rose or Haiden?’Brethart couldn’t hide his disappointment and fear while sitting next to his mother and in front of their guest.The first one who noticed Brethart’s pale complexion was his stepsister, Rose.“This is my wife, Louisa,” Gabriel introduced to Odeen.“Hello, nice to meet a beautiful lady like you,” Odeen praised with a botox smile.“Thank you,” Louisa replied.“This is my daughter, Rose” Gabriel said, pointing at Rose.Rose and Gabriel smiled at each other.“My son, Brethart,” Gabriel murmured, looking at his youngest child with a disappointed stare.“Nice to meet you, Brethart,” Odeen said even if he and Brethart already knew each other.Steeling himself, Brethart met gaze with him and uttered, “S-Same here.”
Xavier groped the knife inside his pocket. He looked at Spade, waiting for the next words that would come out of his mouth. “You are…” His clutched tightened on the blade, ready to pull out. “You are visiting a psychiatrist.” Xavier stopped pulling the knife and blinked. “You lost your memories, did you?” Spade asked. “W-What?” Xavier murmured. “I know something was odd when you came back. You acted and spoke differently. You kept on doing things that aren’t your forte. And now, you even forgot about your own allergy.” “Ahem,” Xavier forged another cough. He was both surprised and relieved that Spade was wrong. Xavier really thought that he was caught for impersonating Haiden. Thank goodness, it wasn’t the case. “I don’t know what you are talking about, Spade,” Xavier pretended. “Oh come on, boss. You know that I am not kidding. It’s real. You lost your memories.” ‘After all, I was the last one you talked with,’ Spade said in his head. ‘Because if was him who tried to k
Xavier went inside his designated room inside the penthouse. The room is short, pretty decent, and he can see the river from the glass window. But Xavier has no time to enjoy himself and relax. As soon as he went inside the room, he locked the door. He walked around checking every edge in the room. The cabinet, the table, the mirror and even the lights inside the bathroom. Gian taught him to be wary of his surroundings and always check if there are recording bugs. A simple mistake would expose their secret. “There’s no bugs,” Xavier murmured after checking every crook. Breathing heavily, he sat on the bed and then picked up his phone. Not wasting any time, he called Gian. Just after two rings, Gian picked up the call. “Gian, listen to me. Spade…” [“Spade came there to meet your family. Didn’t he?”] Gian said before Xavier could finish his sentence. With a deep scowl on his forehead, Xavier asked, “ How did you know?” [“I told my men to follow Spade’s movements. And to my s
When Xavier went out of the dining room, Rose followed him to see if he’ll be okay after eating peanuts.She wanted to see if he’ll die or not. It’s not because she’s worried. At least, this is what she wanted to think.But when she arrived at the garden, she overheard Xavier and Odeen’s conversation. [“Pretend you don’t know me until the end. Or else…” “Alright, Alright. I will do it, boss. Does it mean that you're admitting I was right?” “You are getting old, Spade. You should eat Almonds. It’s good for your brain.”] Rose could tell that her foster brother and her father’s guest knew each other. And she was dying to know why Odeen called him ‘boss’, and why Haiden called Odeen by a different name.While sitting on the couch in the living room, Rose picked up her phone and called her secretary.“Sonny. I have a job for you. Look what’s the relationship between Haiden and a man named Odeen Slyvia.”Brethart arrived in the living room, and when Rose saw him, she quickly hung up the
