When Xavier opened his eyes, he found himself in a dim place. His feet and hands were tied on the wood chair. No matter how much he tried to get out, it was futile.

Breathing heavily, he looked North.

He saw a man approaching on his side.

Step.

Step.

Finally, under the lighting, he saw the man with droopy eyes which were darkly shaded. It was Gian, the underboss of the Harbor Black Mafia. Gian was holding a piece of paper as he stood in front of Xavier.

“Xavier Green,” Gian read the contents in the paper. “Graduated of business management in Harvard University. Married and a father of a 9-year-old boy. You have million dollars debt from the loan shark and to pay for that, you are working as a driver.”

With Cheshire grin, Gian stared at Xavier.

“So far, this is the information I got regarding you.”

He showed the paper in his hand which contained Xavier’s photo.

“Your picture and your face right now are very different.”

“I already told you that before!” Xavier shouted. “That m

    Mario Scoffer used an abandoned factory located in the middle of the woods as his hiding place for his illegal business.The place was littered with broken glass and empty beer bottles and there was smoke everywhere from the men staying inside.In the corner, Mario was sitting on an empty container while counting the money he collected from the borrowers who paid their debts for today.“Seventy-six, seventy-seven, seventy-eight. That’s it?” Mario looked at his men after counting the money above the old-looking wooden table.The men flinched in fear at Mario’s stare.“This is less than last week. What happened?”No one answered.Mario slammed the desk hard.Bam!That was when one answered the question.“It is because one of the borrowers did not pay this week,” he reported.“Who? Who the hell skipped paying?!” Mario demanded.Afraid to utter the name, the man clutched his hands together. “X-Xavi…”He couldn’t finish his words because Mario threw a bottle of beer on his head.“Ahhh!” th

    “I heard there was a man who owes you $2.5 million. I am paying his debts.” Mario could not understand why someone suddenly came here to pay the Green’s debts. Even if he looked closely at the man, he doesn’t not resemble Xavier. It also impossible for him to imagine that the poor family has connection with a scary looking guys like them. Above all, no normal person would bring a million dollars with in in cash. And so, as Mario stared at the masked-man, he wondered, 'Who is this crazy rich bastard?' As Mario remained unresponsive, impatient man uttered, "Why aren't you answering?" “I am s-sorry,” Mario apologized. He squinted his eyes to him as if trying his best to recognize his face which was hiding under the disguise. Yet he had no idea. "I was just... surprised," Mario added in a slow pace. "May I know your relationship with that pathetic loser?" Pathetic loser. It sounded natural coming from Mario. Because people who couldn't pay their debts and who had to be on their

    Black Family owns the “Black Corporation”, or known as “The Heart of the City”. It is the largest corporation, owning electronics, gadgets, automobiles, food, insurance, card, finance, department store… companies.That is why, the brain, or those who wanted to be the brain of the city, are eager to monopolize the influential and wealthy family.“I was so happy that you allowed me to join you and your family for this exquisite dinner,” Cesar Fugito, the number two candidate for Mayor, said to the head of Black, Grabriel Black.Gabriel, his second wife, daughter and son were also present in the dining room. In front of them is a long mahogany table, tarnished silverware, votive candles and food prepared in perfection. The chandelier above gives a warm aura that will make everyone comfortable. But even if the dinner looks presentable, the members of the family weren’t happy to see the guest of the night.“I hope you are enjoying the food,” Gabriel responded to Cesar.“Sure! This is the

    Together with Cesar, Xavier went to the dining room of the mansion. As soon as he stepped inside the bright space, the people inside looked at him with astonishment. Not a positive astonishment. Each step Xavier takes, he watches the family members whom he sees for the first time. He looked at his soon-to-be father, Gabriel Black. Gabriel is the Chairman of the Black corporation, and the one who physically abused Haiden when he was young. Next, Xavier looked at the eldest daughter, Rose Black. She is the owner of the Black hotel company. Rose never cared about Haiden. All she wanted is to inherit the corporation. Standing near the table, Xavier stared at the woman next to his father. That is Louisa Black, the second wife of Gabriel. She married Gabriel two years after the first wife died. Louisa always look down on Haiden. And last, the most troublemaker in the member, Brethart. He is two years younger than Haiden, but he acted as if he’s older. He bullied Haiden whenever he lik

    “This is Haiden’s phone.” Gian placed the phone on the center table. Before Gian would send Xavier to the Black’s family house, he made sure that he provided him enough information to pretend as Haiden. The two of them went to the Mafia boss’ office and discussed it briefly. Sitting on the couch, Xavier looked at the phone on the table. Then, he grabbed it. “The password is 03-27-88. That is our boss's birthday. I am the only one who celebrated it with him, though.” Xavier nodded his head before he placed the phone in his pocket. “Anyway, did you memorize the family members that I gave you before, boss?” Xavier still wasn’t used to being called as ‘boss’. It’s been only two weeks. But he tried his best to practice. The more he gets used to it, the more it will be easy for him to pretend. That’s why Gian also acted as if he’s really serving the real boss of the Mafia. “I memorized everything,” Xavier answered. “From the abusive father, to the troublemaker son.” “If Haiden hear

    Xavier poured the food onto the floor. If there is a reward for being the spotlight-stealer of the night, Xavier deserves to get the trophies. “Haiden,” Gabriel said in an angry voice after he saw how his foster son dared to throw the food while everyone was there. He felt like a tank that would burst at any moment. However, Xavier remained nonchalant while peering at the pale maid. ”S-Sir,” she murmured. As if having fun, Cesar watched the whole scene. If only there was popcorn, it would be better. Brethart felt the same thing. He hates Haiden, but he loves what he’s seeing. “I told you to give me food,” Xavier said with a chilling voice. “But you gave me this? What do you think I am? A goat? I said I want meat!” “Haiden!” Louisa butted. “The maid will give you meat. That was only an appetizer. It’s a full set.” “Y-Yes, Sir,” the maid explained. “I only gave you the appetizer. The steak was being cooked.” “Appetizer?” Xavier repeated. He stood up. The difference in height be

    Gabriel went inside his office. He took off his suit and hung it on the rack. When he sat in front of his desk, he loosened the necktie and sighed. Then, his eyes went to the tablets on his table. As Gabriel stared at the tablets, Xavier was hiding at the narrow space between the cabinet and the wall. Next to him is the open window. Xavier was holding his breath as not to make any sounds that would reveal that he’s inside. Then, he peeked to Gabriel. He saw Gabriel sitting on his office chair while looking at the red and blue tablets about the desk. Xavier hid again and leaned the back of his head onto the wooden cabinet. ‘He almost caught me,’ he said to himself. A moment ago when Gabriel opened the door, Xavier placed the vase he caught back to its place. Then, he heard Gabriel’s voice. Someone called Gabriel’s phone, which made him stop in the middle of opening the door. Xavier took that chance to hide. He does not know who called Gabriel, but Xavier was thankful to that per

    While secretly looking for Xavier’s missing family, Gian received a tip from the Binghamton syndicate that Bridgette and her son were hiding in that town. But when Gian arrived in the place where they stayed at, he found nothing, or even a clue that would lead them. “Boss Gian, I looked at the CCTV. But they went to the place where there was a mask festival. So, we didn’t see them.” Gian scoffed a laugh. “W-Why are you laughing?” the man asked Gian. “It just that I remembered someone who was so good at hide and seek,” Gian answered. He realized that finding Xavier’s family is a hard task. But Gian was certain that Xavier was having a harder time in the Black mansion. ‘I guessed Xavier did not sleep well last night,’ Gian guessed, and he pitied Xavier at the same time. Just like what he expected, Xavier didn’t sleep well last night. After finding his room last night, Xavier spent a lot of time thinking about a lot of things. First, if Gabriel will accept his deal. And second,

    In front of the wide blue sea, the red sunset to the West. Blue and Red met on the horizon. “Do you know what will happen if you mix blue and red?” A man with blonde hair and blue eyes asked while holding his fishing rod. "It's Green. The color of our eyes is blue and red. Maybe that’s why your surname is Green.” The other guy looked at him. “It’s Purple, not green.” he answered. “…” A black crow flew in the sky. “Should I laugh now?” Xavier, who still has Haiden’s face, asked. Haiden, who still had Xavier’s face, looked at him. “Shit. It's not Green?” Xavier shook his head. “Damn it. I sound so cool before. Huh! You are so serious, brother-in-law. It’s hard to joke with you,” Haiden said. "But it is not a joke," Xavier said, laughing It’s been three years since Xavier and Haiden finished their revenge on the Black family and on Fugito. A lot of things happened during the three years. Xavier had to continue his role as Haiden Black, the heir of the Black corporation. Jus

    “I should have killed you before, Haiden.”Gabriel pointed the gun at Xavier. His eyes went to the note in Xavier’s hand, then back to Xavier’s surprised face.“Were you searching for evidence to know that I am Hades B?” Gabriel asked.Xavier doesn’t know what to feel right now. Will he feel sad? Unbothered? Guilty? He had no idea.“You care for Rose?” Xavier asked.“Huh?”“The passcode was Rose’s birthday.”Gabriel frowned as he placed his index finger on the trigger of the gun.“And this note,” Xavier showed it to him. “You were supposed to send this to Odeen. Why? Did Odeen tell you who Haiden is? What’s his purpose? And that he’s looking for you?”The Chairman narrowed his eyes.“Why are you talking as if you are not Haiden?”Xavier pursed his lips and took a deep breath.“You’re not Haiden, are you?” Gabriel guessed. He tightly held the gun and shouted, “Who are you?!”Xavier didn’t answer as he tightly held the ledger and the note.“When you came back after you went missing, you

Light entered the window of Gabriel’s office.A man entered inside while dragging his feet which were as light as feather.It was Xavier.Haiden and Bridgette succeeded in getting the recorder from Frederick’s wife. Kija spread the rumor and Merly found the hidden documents which will prove Gabriel’s past murder crimes.Now, all Xavier had to do was to find evidence that Gabriel is Mr. Hades B.To do that, Xavier needed Rose’s help.“I need to find a clue as soon as possible,” Xavier said.He began to search around the office. Xavier checked every crook but found nothing.Minutes passed.Xavier sighed as he couldn’t see anything in Gabriel’s office.“Is there nothing to see here? Really?”His red eyes went to the table. Xavier recalled the day when he saw Gabriel close the last cabinet in a hurry as if he didn’t want to get caught.‘I already check that place. But just to make sure, I will check it again.’He sat down and approached the

Rose was busy buying shares to strengthen her power over Black corporations.Xavier looked around the place which never became a home for him.‘Everyone is almost finished with their tasks. Now, it’s my turn,’ Xavier thought.He walked forward and the maids greeted him.“Good morning, Sir!”“Hi, Sir!”Ever since Louisa and Brethart disappeared, the maids treat him well. The power changed.“Is Rose here?”“Yes, Sir.

    “That is what happened,” Haiden said after telling his story to Xavier and his sister, Bridgette. “Now, it solved everything. Since we have Cesar’s research team, we can find a way to bring back our old appearance,” Xavier said. “You and Bridgette had a hard time,” Haiden said. “But call me selfish. I didn’t regret losing my memories and spending normal days with my sister.” Haiden looked at Bridgette and smiled. Bridgette smiled too. “We fought a lot, right?” Haiden said to Bridgette. “Yes. Now I know why. You are not my husband but my brother.” “And siblings always fight.” Bridgette held Haiden’s hand. “Thank you, brother. For coming back and saving me.” The two smiled at each other. Xavier, who was watching them, felt weird. Is it because Haiden is still wearing his face? ‘We need to find a way to bring back our appearance as soon as possible!’ Xavier thought. “Anyway,” Haiden uttered, getting his hand from his sister. “I still have unfinished business with Gabriel.” Ha

Fuming in anger, Spade thought of nothing except making a way out of here, and venting his anger to Xavier! “It was your fault!” Spade pointed his gun to Xavier and pressed the trigger. Bang! Xavier closed his eyes, waiting for the impact. But he felt nothing. He opened his eyes and saw what happened with a swift move. Gian attacked Spade from behind. When Spade pressed the trigger, his aim was missed. “Once is enough!” Gian shouted before he pinned Spade to the ground. But the Mafioso, who experienced countless battles, did not give up. Spade pulled out another gun from his waist and shot Gian. Bang! “Uck!” “Gian!” “Brother Gian!” Gian dodged the bullet a second late, and had his left chest shot. He

The most important thing is that we got our revenge. Louisa and Bret
