"Mr. Gregory, you have a big catch there with you, don't let him off the hook. I'll be there tomorrow" Newton instructed Mr. Gregory and carefully placed his cell phone on the table in front of him.

"In just a few hours, we have uncovered a few years of carefully guarded secrets. Kudos to you, Grinch. Now we know the faces behind their mob."

Grinch nodded slowly and picked up the TV remote. "What have you discovered about Mr. Creswell?" He asked, his attention fixed on the large screen on the wall. "I sense pure evil just by looking at that man"

Newton grinned. "When did you start watching TV, Grinch? I don't know you as someone who has time for frivolities like watching movies"

Grinch shifted his gaze to Newton, he spoke with a serious expression on his face, "Throughout that event, I was on edge. I suspected everyone who looked towards your table because I thought we would be busted for sure. How could they not know you were not the real deal? I need good TV right now, to relax"

    "Oh, man, this is good," he said, his mouth full. "You've got to try it, Boss."Newton chuckled, shaking his head. "The food has made you forget why we came here in the first place," he whisperedThe meatloaf was tender and flavorful, smothered in a rich gravy that tasted like it had been simmering for hours. The mashed potatoes were creamy and buttery, the perfect accompaniment to the meat.As they ate, they listened to the lively chatter of the other diners around them. Couples held hands, families laughed, and the occasional solo diner enjoyed a quiet meal, lost in thought.For a moment, Newton and Grinch forgot about the mission they had in mind and just enjoyed the simple pleasure of good food."This is just what I needed," Grinch said, wiping his mouth with a napkin. "Sometimes it's nice to take a break from all the chaos and just... exist."Newton nodded, his expression softening. "I know what you mean. It's easy to get caught up in the work and forget that there's a whole worl

    Newton and Grinch had just finished taking a swim at the home swimming pool on a Sunday afternoon and were seated by the poolside, sipping red wine.Newton took a sip of his wine before speaking. "Grinch, I think we should pay a visit to Mr. Gregory. He has a piece of information that is very useful to us."Grinch raised his eyebrows. "Mr. Gregory? Why doesn't he just come to you or tell you the information over the phone? I mean, we use secure lines now don't we?""Speaking on the phone won't be enough," Newton replied. "Remember I impersonated Mr. Patrick at the party yesterday? Well, Mr. Gregory has the real Mr. Patrick at his house. That Patrick together with the other three men at the table yesterday are heavyweights behind the Beanies."Grinch thought for a moment. "But Boss, since Mr. Gregory has such a high-profile person, shouldn't the person be brought here? I mean the security here is tighter compared to his home. I suggest Mr. Micheal Patrick be transported here for interro

    Grinch shook his head, unable to believe that someone as slow-witted as Mr. Patrick had caused so many problems for them. "Formerly Norts, now Angels. Do you understand now? dumb-ass?"hit by the sudden realization of his predicament, the cup of wine slipped from Mr. Patrick's hands and broke on the floor. He shifted his gaze from each man to the other.Grinch nodded. "Finally he understands the situation he's in." Mr. Patrick looked terrified, "What do you want from me, you devils? Let me go this instant, else I swear, hell will be let loose on you and your minions. The Bagwells and Beanies will not rest until I'm found"Grinch ran a finger along the trigger of his pistol, "Beanies and Bagwells? You treacherous two-faced snake. You are not even loyal to any side, you probably sell secrets of one side to the other. How low can a man possibly go?" Newton put a hand on the man's shoulder, "Now it all makes sense. You work with both the Beanies and Bagwells. You told the Bagwells where

    Newton sat on the bed in his room, absent-mindedly scrolling through his phone. He had a lot of things weighing on his mind, what to do with Mr. Patrick, how to get closer to the Bagwells, Dr. Sergey's family, and every other problem he shouldered. As he scrolled, his phone buzzed, indicating a new message.Curious, he opened the message to find an unexpected offer of employment. It was from the Fat-n-Obis restaurant that he worked for a few days ago. "Mr. Newton, your request has been approved and you are to come for an interview either today or tomorrow.

"I bet it's a woman who texted you now" he teasedNewton shook his head. "I don't know of any woman who will send me a text message rather than calling. I'm not so familiar with any woman right now". He unlocked his phone and peered at the message, "KIRA" was the sender.He raised his gaze to Grinch and found Grinch staring at him intently. "It's a woman, isn't it?" Grinch asked, smirking.Newton searched for words, "No, Grinch. Actually, Yes, it's a woman, but it's not the way you think" He repliedGrinch grinned. "I know my boss, what he says is what it is. If you say it's not what I think, then it's not what I'm thinking"Newton shifted his gaze to the phone in his hands

    As Newton and Grinch arrived at the restaurant early in the morning, they were greeted by the manager, Mr. Xavier who introduced himself and showed them around the facility.

The storage area was huge, with shelves reaching up to the ceiling, filled with cans, boxes, and bags of every type of food imaginable."Your job is simple," the manager explained. "You'll be responsible for moving the food items from the storage area to the kitchen, using the forklifts provided."He pointed to two large forklifts parked near the back of the storage area."These are your machines," he said.

    The cheerful laughter of students filtering through the air and the soft, melodic chirping of birds in the nearby trees created a serene and calm atmosphere at Bayfield College.For some, these sounds were a mockery of the distinct surge of emotion they felt as they glanced over their grade sheets, which were posted on the large wall in the center of the school."Thank you so much for everything you've done for me," a voice whispered next to Newton as he traced his finger along the rows.Glancing down, he returned a warm smile to the small figure with large brown eyes who stood beside him with a cheerful demeanor.He shifted his attention to the results sheets, "How were your results?" He asked.Allison Cornor hastily reached into her purse, unable to contain the broad grin that spread across her face. "Here, take a look, Newt."

Only Robert, Grinch, and Mrs. Elizabeth remained, fear etched on their faces.Startled, Grinch and Robert turned to see a figure with dreadlocks approaching, guns aimed directly at them. It was Drax, the man who had caused Newton so much pain and loss."Grinch, you fool. I knew you were up to no good the moment I laid my eyes on you," Drax's gruff voice boomed through the room, his gaze fixed on the trio of traitors.Confusion filled the air as Grinch questioned Drax, "What's going on, Drax? I thought you hated Mr. Norton too."Drax let out a booming laugh, finding Grinch's statement absurd. "Hate? How could I hate my Father? That man gave me a life I never had. Even you, he provided for you, but look at what you've become. You've fallen so far."Newton's mind reeled, the revelation turning his world upside down. "You killed my father, you devil! What are

    With cautious steps, Newton and his men navigated the desolate ruins of what was once a thriving warehouse. The echoes of their movements mingled with the scent of smoke and dust, creating an eerie atmosphere.The small secured office stood before them, its walls scorched and crumbling from the devastating explosion. Newton's kick sent the door crashing to the ground, his eyes darting around the charred remains of the office.Grinch chuckled softly at the sight. "There goes their precious secured door," he remarked, his voice laced with a hint of satisfaction.As they entered the room, Newton's gaze shifted upward, only to find a void where the roof and air vent had once been. The blast had obliterated any trace of the trigger mechanism that would grant them access to the secret door below."How do we get down there?"

    "Grinch, instruct the men to turn around. We're heading back home. This is not our fight," Newton firmly instructed.Grinch shifted his gaze to Newton, his expression conflicted. "I could have advised that we stay a bit longer and see who wins. Then we could annihilate the winning side since they would have been weakened."Newton shook his head, his voice resolute. "No. Instruct the men to turn around, Grinch. We're heading back!"Just as Newton spoke those words, Arturo emerged from the chaos, boldly walking toward Newton's side, showing no concern for the gunfire erupting around him from the Bagwells' side."Look at that devil!" Grinch yelled, unable to contain his anger and frustration. Before Newton could react, Grinch extended his gun from the window and fired at Arturo. The shot hit Arturo's chest, but it seemed to have little effect on him. With a wicked grin, Arturo retaliated, releasing a hail of bullets toward Newton's entourage, drawing other Beanies into the firefight.Duc

    Newton lay on his bed, his eyes wide open as he stared at the exquisite chandelier that hung high in the ceiling, casting a warm glow across his room. The intricate patterns of light danced before his gaze, but his mind was preoccupied with the events that had unfolded since he became the leader of the Angels mob.Thoughts raced through Newton's mind, flashing like fragments of a vivid dream. Memories of his encounters with danger, the loss of Mr. Alfred, the battles with rival factions such as the Lees, Beanies, and Bagwells, all played out in his thoughts. Each experience had tested his mettle and forged him into a stronger and more resilient leader.As his mind meandered through the labyrinth of his memories, one question nagged at him, refusing to be silenced. "Why did Harris die? Who was responsible for his untimely demise?" Newton pondered aloud, his voice filled with a mix of confusion and frustration.

    Excitement filled the room as Newton and Grinch marveled at the key in Newton's hand. Newton swung the necklace back and forth, the key dangling from it, catching the light. Grinch couldn't contain his enthusiasm and quickly stood up from the sofa to join Newton."Guess what I've found, Grinch?" Newton asked, a wide grin spreading across his face.Grinch gasped in anticipation, his eyes widening. "Is that what I think it is?" He leaned closer to examine the key. "It's a key to the box?" he exclaimed, barely containing his excitement.Newton nodded, his smile growing even broader. "Wills never lies. He was right to trust Mr. Anon. The key was indeed with the Cornor family," he confirmed.Taking the key from Newton's hand, Grinch carefully inspected it, marveling at its intricate details.

And why is it such a big deal?"Newton's attention was drawn to a tightly strung piece around Allison's neck. His curiosity piqued, his eyes widened in surprise.
