The next day, Jacob prepares to leave for home. Sheena went to Jacob in his room as he was getting ready to go downstairs for breakfast. Sheena looked nervous as she talked to her boyfriend. Jacob looked at Sheena's beautiful face intently. "I'm sorry," Sheena said with a downcast look. Jacob smiled. "I know." "I... I don't know. I just don't want anything bad to happen to you, Mr. Wyatt. Not only that, but I'm afraid you're going to jail," Sheena said, looking worried. "If that's the case, I'm fine with it. I did do something bad, Sheena. I'll take the risk," Jacob replied firmly, but made Sheena's face crinkle, like she was about to cry. Sheena then hugged the man she loved tightly. Jacob just realized that Sheena only wanted to protect him, even though her words at that time sounded inconsistent with other people's thoughts. Jacob returned the hug because he needed an honest woman, who was not afraid to reprimand him when he made a mistake. Instead of supporting his evil actio
Ewald wears glasses to help him read. "First, the inauguration of 25 RedFox candidates at the Vertiland mansion, December 31st on New Year's Eve." Jacob nodded in agreement as he placed his contact lenses in a special box that had been treated with liquid to prevent sticking. "Next." "Secondly, meeting Norman to interrogate and prove his corruption during the theater business. We will do this in the first week of January next year in Norman's office. Just one day is enough to settle the matter." "Have you prepared the evidence of cheating?" asked Jacob, looking at his figure closely in the mirror without contact lenses."Yes, Sir," Ewald replied tensely, holding the tablet in his lap. "Okay," Jacob replied in agreement. Ewald set a reminder alarm, the day before the activity. "The third one?" asked Jacob as he removed the wig from his hair. The man's real hair was in a tight crop style, which made Jacob's modest figure even
TOK! TOK! TOK!Jacob opened his eyes slowly when he heard a knock on the door. The man gathered his energy again that had evaporated while sleeping. Jacob sat up slowly where he felt that his sleep was so deep that he didn't even dream. The wall clock showed 1pm, it was time for lunch.Jacob got out of bed while tidying up his appearance. He went to the door and felt his mind relax a little after resting. When he opened it, there was a familiar figure, Julia. The woman froze when she saw a handsome, simple-looking man in front of her. Jacob looked closely at Julia who seemed confused about something."I thought you were Ewald," Jacob replied and went out and closed the door.As Jacob stepped out, Julia held his hand tightly which made the brunette man stop his steps instantly."Who are you? Why are you in Mr. Wyatt's room?"Suddenly, Julia's question stunned Jacob. He forgot that in the figure of Jacob, not Wyatt anymore. Julia was still staring at him sharply, waiting for an answer.
Jacob, who saw an opportunity, improvised again."Madam! Your son is dead! Alfred is dead!" Jacob screamed, making the eyes of the old woman named Mendez widen instantly.Simon looked at Jacob closely, and the brown-haired man nodded. Simon and Jacob turned their bodies slowly. Mrs. Mendez was transfixed and before long, her body was shaking. Not because of the cold wind, but because her heart was sad."Alfred... him, is he dead?" the gray-haired woman asked in a trembling voice. She had tears in her eyes, and looked at her two guests intently."Yes. We don't actually know Alfred. We found your son dying by the river when we accidentally crossed the city border after celebrating Christmas. We're sorry for your loss," Jacob said, which made the poor woman collapse, after hearing the statement from the unknown man.Jacob felt guilty. Because of this, Alfred was killed. As Jacob was overcome with remorse, Mrs. Mendez suddenly laughed. It shocked Jacob and Simon because of Alfred's mother
Jacob immediately stood up and left Mendez's body for the locals to find. He went back into the forest and looked at the camera set up by his team earlier. However, Jacob left it alone. “Julia! Eddy, Shane! Did you hear me?” Jacob asked over the phone while running between the trees. “Yes! Where are you?” asked Julia anxiously. “We're going back to the mansion!” “Ok!” replied Julia, who then started the car engine, ready to leave. Shane and Eddy looked around. They were waiting for Jacob's arrival from the direction of the forest. “There he is!” shrieked Eddy, pointing from the middle seat as his body faced the rearview mirror. “Hah, hah, hurry!” he pleaded as he sat on the front seat, next to Julia. BROOM! The car traveled at a moderate speed, leaving Demorium through the underwater tunnel to return to Rowbon. “Jacob, what did you find?” asked Julia, who was still focused on driving. “Mendez was shot dead.” “What!” screeched the three people in shock. “Don't worry, we've
Jacob was finally trusted by the new RedFox recruits. Julia informed Rafael that Jacob had been found. The man breathed a sigh of relief because he was very worried that the man who had helped him was harmed, considering that Torres was after him."Jacob. Are we staying here, or going back to Rowbon?" Julia asked after they had dinner together."My advice is to stay here. I'm worried that the Pale members are hunting you," Alexa said, to which the other members nodded.However, Jacob seemed to be seriously thinking about something. The eyes of everyone at the dinner table looked at him intently."Did you think of something?" Shane asked curiously."Pale already knows that RedFox members are gathered in this place. They must be watching us. What I'm worried about is if they come again to attack when we're caught off guard and unable to fight back," Jacob said seriously."That's why we train so hard, Jacob!" said Flint, who echoed the other members.Jacob, however, shook his head. "That
Upon arrival at the mansion, Seven and Five ordered the prospective RedFox members to unload. With so many workers to complete the security system, the excavation on the inside of the fence wall had been completed by mid-afternoon. The depth of the excavation was not too deep because it was like making a ditch, so it did not take long. Luckily, there was no snowfall that day. But, the cold air was still disturbing. However, the men did not want to be seen as weak, and continued to persevere until it was time to rest. As they were gathering in the dining room to enjoy dinner, after cleaning up, two cars entered the grounds. Everyone's heads turned towards the monitor connected to the CCTV outside the house. They wondered who the guests were that the mansion's guards had let in. “It's Nine and the others! They've been allowed to go home!” exclaimed an aspiring RedFox member named Carter. “Welcome them,” Seven commanded, and the others nodded. Julia and her friends rushed out of the
After a late night conversation with Shanum and Ten, the two excused themselves from Ewald's room. Jacob looked happy and proud of the people in his ranks for having so many abilities. The handsome man returned to bed and prepared to sleep. He was tired, but the pressure from Pale, and thinking about the fate of those in his ranks, kept him awake. “I now have great responsibility. I'm no longer a servant to be told what to do, but a boss who assigns tasks to his employees. I never thought that fate would take me this far,” Jacob said with a smile and began to close his eyes, trying to rest the thoughts that were still running through his head. TOK! TOK! TOK! “Yes?” said Jacob suddenly when he heard a knock on his door. However, Jacob, who was still sleepy, did not wake up immediately. Not long after, his mobile phone rang. The man took the mobile phone that was on the table drawer, next to the bed. Instantly, his eyes opened wide. It was Ewald who called him. “Yes?” “Sir, Joshua
