Grinch smiled sheepishly at Newton. "Boss, the women are always nice to you. Did you see the way she acted as if I wasn't even here?"

Newton smiled. "It's not so, Grinch. The women are not always nice to me, Grinch. The most I've met are devils"

*beep**beep* A new message popped into Newton's phone.

Grinch grinned. "I bet it's a woman who texted you now" he teased

Newton 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 replied

Grinch 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

He knew he had to move quickly if he wanted to make it to the restaurant on time. He bid Robert goodbye and boarded a taxi home."Boss," Grinch greeted Newton as he walked in. Newton replied with a warm smile and dropped his bag on the center table. "It's our first day at work, Grinch. We don't want to leave a wrong impression on our boss, Zach""Hahaha. It's strange to see you in an Obis uniform. All these, just to keep an eye on our enemies?"Newton s

    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 manager was a tall, lanky man with a bushy beard and a no-nonsense attitude."Alright, boys, let's get started," he said, leading them to the storage area.Newton and Grinch looked around in awe at the massive stacks of food items that surrounded them. 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. "They're big, they're powerful, and they're not to be messed with. You'll need to treat them with respect and follow all safety guidelines at all times."Newt

And if you need anything, you know where to find me."With that, Zach turned and headed back out into the bustling dining area, Newton and Grinch watched him go.Newton checked his wristwatch, the time was 5 pm. He never expected to take so long at the job, because Zach had said they wouldn't have much work and would work for only an hour.Grinch wiped the sweat from his brows. "This is hard work, boss" Grinch whispered. "When do we make our move and check those boxes?" Newton put a hand around his mouth, to keep his speech discreet. "We shouldn't rush things, we'll get the opportunity to go into the storage room one of these days, let's not mess things up for ourselves by going there right now. We've only just started the job, it will be too suspicious if we are seen around there."Grinch nodded.

    Newton and Robert stepped up to the edge of the sidewalk, looking both ways before crossing the busy street. As they made their way across, Newton could sense Robert's excitement building for the evening ahead. Robert had told Newton of his intentions to learn about Quantum Mechanics from him."I can't wait to hang out at your place, man. It's been too long! I missed the good old days when we had fun at your place, we studied together and all that. I hope I will understand Quantum Mechanics like you" Robert exclaimed.Newton hesitated. He didn't feel like having company tonight, but he didn't want to hurt Robert's feelings. "Actually, Robert, I was thinking of just heading home tonight. I have a lot of work to catch up on."Robert's face fell. "Oh, okay. Maybe another time then?""Yeah, definitely," Newton replied with a forced smile.As they reached the other side of the street, Robert continued to talk about all the things they could do if he came over.

    Newton was dressed in a casual white long-sleeved top, black pants, and white pair of shoes.He was at the top floor of his house, pondering on the means to pick Kira up, without his men noticing her presence which he and his father had carefully kept secret for years.He remembered Kira was the master of stealth and disguise, since she was able to sneak into the top floor of the mansion and out, without anyone being aware of her existence, he figured it would be a piece of cake for her to sneak unseen into the garage with him."Meet me on the top floor. I will make sure there is no one in sight, so it's safe for you." He texted KiraNewton had been planning this night since the previous day, carefully orchestrating every detail to make sure it would be perfect for Kira.

    Newton had returned early from his lecture at Bayfield College and found himself in the comfort of his gaming room in his mansion. He kicked off his shoes and sank into his favorite sleek leather sofa, closing his eyes and letting out a deep sigh.The room was brightly lit, with floor-to-ceiling windows showcasing the city skyline. The walls were adorned with abstract art and the latest technology was on display throughout the room. Newton loved the modernity of the room and the way it reflected his own love for innovation. He had recently converted one of the spare rooms in his mansion into the gaming lounge.As he lounged on the sofa, Newton picked up his tablet and began to browse through his emails and messages. He was lost in the data when he heard a faint beep coming from his smartphone. He glanced at the device and saw that he had received a message from Wills, informing him about his latest discovery on the Blackbox.Newton smiled at the message and set down his tablet, taking

    As the clock struck 1:30 pm, Newton and Grinch stepped out of the building and quickly hailed a taxi on the road. They were running late for their shift at Fat-n-Obis, where they worked as forklift operators in the busy kitchen."Fat-n-Obis, please," said Grinch to the driver, who nodded and began driving towards the restaurant."Sorry we're running late," said Newton, checking his watch. "We had a few things that needed doing that took our time.""No problem," said the driver, weaving through the crowded streets. "I know the job can get pretty hectic, but don't worry, we'll get you there in no time."As they approached the restaurant, they could see the familiar sight of chefs and waiters scurrying about, the sounds and smells of the busy kitchen filling the air.

    He was just about to examine the label more closely when Zach called out to him. "Mr. Newton, is there a problem?Newton ignored Zach and continued fiddling with the strap of the drum. "Almost fixed, Mr. Zach. I needed to strap it more tightly, to avoid the drum rolling off the pallet."Zach nodded in understanding. "Okay. Good job, Mr. Newton. This is the last cargo for the day, and I must say, I'm impressed by your efficiency. From the moment I gave you this job, you have continued to impress me with the speed and efficiency with which you work. It's good to see people who are very good at what they do"Newton smiled and quickly made his way back to the forklift. "You are too kind, Mr. Zach," he said as he raised the pallet and moved the forklift out of the truck. As he drove toward the warehouse, he couldn't take his eyes off the drum. He couldn't help but wonder what secrets the heavy drum might hold. But for now, his priority was getting the job done without raising suspicions.

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."

    To Newton's astonishment, the men in black masks fell lifeless before him, their once threatening presence reduced to mere corpses. 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

Newton quickened his pace, followed closely by Grinch and the rest of the team.

    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?" Newton voiced his frustration, unsure of the next step without the means to unlock the door.One of Newton's men, his M4 rifle gripped firmly, inquired about the door's w

    "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. "How much did you have to pay for this piece?" he inquired, his curiosity piqued.Newton maintained his warm smile, his gaze fixed on the key. "I didn't have to pay much for it.

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. "May I see your necklace?" he asked, his voice filled with a mix of urgency and intrigue.Allison, unsure of what to make of Newton's sudden shift in behavior, hesitated but eventually acquiesced.

The realization sent a jolt of excitement through him, mingled with a sense of apprehension."How long have you had this?"
