The next day while Veronica was delivering Mr Khalid some files, she heard some of the employees whispering and noticed it was about her when her eyes caught their glances at her."She's married. That's even worse. I just hope her husband doesn't find out after today." someone said."I feel very bad for her. The poor lady seemed to be so absent-minded about it yesterday." the lady who had shown Veronica around on the previous day said."What's that all about?" Jared asked the same lady after Veronica had walked passed them.The lady hissed and walked away without saying a word to Jared whose worries were quickly growing with the odd whispers.Should he call Vincent now?No.Not when he isn't certain that there is danger. He couldn't just make Vincent come here for nothing.Veronica went into Mr Khalid's office nonetheless and that was when someone next to Jared taps Jared."Don't worry about it. The lady will be fine." the guy next to Jared said."I don't get it. Was she in danger bef
Vincent squatted down in front of Mr Khalid and held him by the back of the neck."People like you do not deserve a second chance at life." Vincent clenched his teeth and started banging Mr Khalid's head against the walk.It was at that moment, his mother broke."Vincent stop! Please stop! His mother screamed.Vincent felt weak all of a sudden and he let go of Mr Khalid, moving and getting up right after.Half of Mr Khalid's face was covered in blood and Vincent had blood stains on his palms, fists, and on his white shirt."You can't be a murderer Vincent. Please just stop it. I can't see you behind bars as well. Your father is in jail. I don't have anyone else in this world." Veronica cried and covered her face with both of her hands.Vincent went to his mother and held her close to himself in an embrace.Stroking her hair, Vincent said to his mother in a calm voice, "It's okay. I'm here now. I'll protect you. Shhh... Please stop crying.""Vincent I'm sorry. I'm so sorry...""What ar
Vincent snatched the phone out of Mr Khalid's hand and deleted the video then smashed the phone against the wall."I'm sure you were using that against my mother. That's why she let you close to her. Don't ever repeat this mistake or even think of repeating it with my mother or any other woman out there!" Vincent warned Mr Khalid and stepped away from him."I feel sorry for the woman who married you," Vincent added."Bastard! Your mother is nothing but a whore! I have seen her fully naked and I have caressed every part of her body!" Mr Khalid hoped to get into Vincent's head with his cruel words but it didn't work.Vincent stood his ground next to his mother and didn't dare to lay another finger on Mr Khalid because he knew that if he did it again, he wouldn't stop until Khalid was finally dead.Security barged into the office, revealing the faces of people standing and eavesdropping at the other side of the door.It was only during that moment that Vincent and his mother realized tha
For Mr Khalid to save his fortune from downfall, there are containers containing various drugs that would be arriving at their warehouse by night time.Ferdinand had been put in charge of making sure those containers arrive safely but the sudden admission of his father into the hospital has stopped him from showing up and has resulted in the drivers handling the issues themselves.Vincent had to keep the operation hush and therefore there was only one person who he could trust with the job without getting himself exposed. That one person was Jared.While Vincent stayed some distance away from the city's border after arriving, Jared went ahead in a different car to make sure that those drugs don't make it across."Be careful and make sure you come back alive." those were the last words that left Vincent's mouth for Jared before he ended the call."Don't worry. I will not disappoint." Jared started, pulling a mask over his face. The mask was like that of an armed robber. It only reveale
Vincent emerged from his car and stood before a fancy hotel. He checked his wristwatch, he was three minutes early.He proceeded to enter and request a particular room. It was Kate who invited him there and somehow he knew what it was she wanted as he made sure to bring a suitcase with him.After getting the room key, Vincent was shown the way to the room and went ahead to knock on the door."Who's there?" he heard Kate's voice from the other side of the door. It was late at night."It's Vincent." "Come in," Kate told him.Vincent opened the door and went inside, making sure to close it behind himself.He found Kate on the bed and in nothing but transparent lingerie. The same one that she used to take pictures of his unconscious body and herself in bed to send to Tasha.Seeing her in that lingerie irritated him and her next words were like a slap to his face."You remember it don't you?" Kate slowly left the bed, walking up to Vincent she said, "The same lingerie I wore on the day I
Kate burst out laughing. "How... Unforeseen. Are you that jealous of me? Vincent claims to love you and yet he chose to be with me.""Why should I be jealous? Vincent is still my boyfriend." Tasha smirked."So you're delusional too? Okay, let me bring your sense back to reality." Kate tried to adjust herself on the chair but failed. Tasha chuckled at her failed attempt but Kate ignored it because she believed the truth would smack Tasha back into her senses."Vincent never loved you. He wanted to break up with you but your damn coma didn't let him do it on time so we dated while you were deep asleep. How did you feel when he broke up with you? I wish I were there to watch you cry for the man you were tripping for." Kate examined Tasha's face for her reaction but didn't get what she was looking for.It was now Tasha's turn to laugh and she made sure to do it hard."Seriously? Is that what you believe? You are so fucking stupid! How do you think your false words can hurt me?""It's not
Ferdinand angrily flung his phone to the side. It landed on the sofa next to him in their living room and he ran his fingers through his hair in frustration, scratching his hair fast and repeatedly."Any luck yet?" José asked Ferdinand while climbing down the stairs with his phone in hand.For two days now the brothers have been trying the same phone number. Kate's phone number."Where did she suddenly disappear to? We know that the last person she went to was Vincent. If she truly went where she last said she did." Ferdinand stated."Call him and ask them. Let's try to find this out. Kate may be a party freak but has never stayed out for more than a day." José said to Ferdinand.Ferdinand took his phone from on top of the sofa and dialled Vincent's number.After a while of listening to his phone ring, it came to an end without an answer but then Ferdinand got called back. He answered it immediately."Sorry, I didn't get to my phone on time." Vincent apologized."I called about my sis
Early the next morning, Ferdinand and José heard a noise coming from downstairs. José had gone down first after leaving his room and was shocked to see a bunch of people in black T-shirts loading most of their belongings into boxes and taking them all out to a moving truck parked outside."Hey! What is going on here?!" José yelled. His voice caught the attention of all those people but they turned away from him as fast as they had looked."The fuck just happened?" José muttered, unable to understand anything.José walked up to one of those people and grabbed him by the collar, raising his fist and ready to throw a punch on that person's face."Tell me who sent you." José voice sounded full of threats with just one sentence."I can't. All I can tell you is that your family no longer owns this property and everything in it." the man replied José."Why you!..." José clenched his teeth in anger and was about to punch the man but another one of them grabbed his hand.Shocked, José turned t
