Soon word reached Mateo of his sewer-socked cocaine. Because Rexa had redirected all of the city sewers to Mateo's warehouse, it did not take long for the city council to notice and send people out in the field to locate where the blockage was.

Soon the warehouse was swamped with law enforcement officials, and it was all over the news. It was from the media that Mateo saw his hundred million dollars worth of cocaine in sewer water and not from his useless men.

He watched the news coverage in his mansion shaking; first, it was Cathy, then the Nash Jewelry shop, then his ship of gold that he was yet to track, and now his cocaine was in sewer water.

He felt like someone was holding his neck and strangling him while he just watched. For the first time in his life, he was helpless and could just watch as his empire was torn apart limb by limb.

He couldn't help but feel like everything was being staged. The events were too close to each other for him not to be suspicious, but there was no

    On the other side, Shelly woke up with a heavy heart; she had failed to sleep the whole night thinking about Daniel's proposal. She kept tossing over and over on the bed trying to make sense of Daniel's plan. In comparison to the Hamiltons, he appeared to be on the winning side and playing the games on the low while they were aggressive.But getting the pills into Gabriel's system proved difficult. It was different from administering the pills to George, whom she used to live with. She was sure a man like Gabriel had lived a life, making sure no one poisoned him.Filthy rich men were always a target, which is why they took such precautions. No matter how hard she tried to think of a way to get the pills into his system, she could not come up with a solution. The mission was impossible, and if she was not careful, it was going to be her ending.She grabbed her phone and called Daniel."Meet me for dinner at the restaurant on your street," Daniel said, quickly hanging up the phone.Shel

    Meanwhile, Gabriel Hamilton was yelling on the phone."What do you mean you are not able to hear their conversation?" He yelled, knowing very well that he had supplied them with top-notch equipment for them to listen in on anyone."Sir, the signal just jammed, and we've been trying to get the signal back but to no avail," the man explained."You stupid fools! You stupid fools!" He yelled on top of his voice as he smashed the phone against the wall.His brother walked into his office and asked him to calm down."That little bustard has jammed my signals!" He yelled at the top of his voice."What did you expect?" Josh replied, further agitating him."That boy thinks he is smart, but I will surely show him!" Gabriel replied, grabbing his other phone. "I think we need to take a trip.""Is George secured?" Josh asked."Yes, very secure; that boy has not made any attempts to try and find where I am hiding him," Gabriel replied.Josh took a seat and leaned back, pondering. "Maybe he does not

    Daniel held his head as flashbacks of memories he had never seen before began flashing in his head. Flashbacks that were clearly not his but someone else's. He could tell something was wrong with Rexa, but he had no idea what. She continued to scream, not hinting at what was wrong.Josh, who was standing in full view of Daniel with a glass of wine and a smile on his face watched. His device worked; he had a little doubt, but it was working perfectly.He quickly got to work, not knowing how long the effects were going to last. He walked to the door and grabbed Daniel by the hands."What's wrong, Daniel? Are you alright?" His words kept repeating in Daniel's head. Everything began hurting. He felt like he was being hit by a heavy rod on his head while Rexa was flashing memories in his head that were not his."Come in; let me help you take a seat," Josh offered."NO!" A man yelled in Daniel's head. He wore very old clothes from decades ago, though Daniel could not see his face clearly.

    "DANIEL! DANIEL!" A familiar voice kept echoing in Daniel's head, who was still sleeping. It was already morning, and the sun was already up."DANIEL!" Rexa called again but could not get a response. This compelled her to hit on his nerve endings, startling him awake like a ghost."I AM SORRY, DANIEL. I HAD TO DETACH FROM YOU LAST NIGHT," she explained.However, Daniel's attention was drawn to the fact that he was naked, he was in a very unfamiliar room, and there was somebody on his left side, a woman by the look of things. From her bare back, he could see that she was naked too, and could tell something had happened between them.He held his head, trying to remember what happened the previous night, but was totally blank. He remembered saying goodbye to Cathy and driving to the Hamiltons.His thoughts went on as he remembered Rexa screaming in his head the moment he stepped on Hamilton's footsteps.Kendall opened her eyes too; her entire body hurt, but her head hurt the most.She sl

    Daniel drove straight to the mansion instead of the hidden apartment, where he knew Cathy was probably waiting for him.He just couldn't face her, not when his dignity and pride as a man were robbed off and there was nothing he could do about it.He had underestimated Josh; he knew he was no saint, but he never imagined him stooping so low and using his own niece like a toy.He arrived at the mansion and went straight inside, hitting the wall."DANIEL, CALM DOWN," Rexa tried to calm down."I want them all on my knees!" He yelled."SHOULDN'T WE FOCUS ON HOW LONG THEY HAVE KNOWN ABOUT MY EXISTENCE? BECAUSE THAT DEVICE THEY USED MUST HAVE TAKEN THEM YEARS TO MAKE," Rexa explained.Daniel paused in his rage for a second."What?" He inquired, his breathing heavily."FOR THEM TO CREATE SUCH A POWERFUL DEVICE, IT MEANS THEY KNOW YOU HAVE FULLY ACTIVATED ME AND KNOW A LOT ABOUT ME," she explained.Daniel slowly took a seat as Rexa explained to him what the device did to her. It was a foreign

    The drive to Mateo's house felt like forever for Craig. He had tried to play the answers in his head, but he only ended up complicating and contradicting himself.The car finally stopped, and his heart began beating very fast."Get out; the boss is waiting for you inside," the man ordered.Craig got out of the car, reminding himself of all he had gone through. As he entered the house, he realized it was not as spotless as it used to be. Everything seemed off.And as he made dinner, he could hear Mateo shouting.Two men walked past him with a body bag, and he could tell there was a body inside. He stopped, trying to puke his guts out. Turning back was not an option, so he forged ahead.He walked into the office and was hit with a stench of blood. He quickly covered his nose as he walked in.Mateo sat in his chair, cleaning the blood off his gun, while his servant stood on the other side of the room, mopping the blood off the floor."I am surrounded by idiots!" Mateo yelled as he got up

    The room became quiet, and the music stopped with everyone's eyes glued on Shelly and Gabriel kissing passionately.Gabriel was opposed to the idea, but his drunkenness forced him to dive in and begin kissing her back.Josh clenched his hands into fists, pissed. He knew the second he spotted her that she was there to take the spotlight and ruin his fundraising dinner.And instead of his brother pushing her off, the drunk idiot embraced the stupid kiss and had his hands all over the slut.Alcohol and the Hamiltons never went together, and they were always doing the most stupid things.Before things could get out of hand, he quickly yanked Shelly off of his brother and dragged her away to the kitchen.He threw her inside and closed the door behind them."Don't you have any shame, you stupid slut!" He yelled at her.Shelly ignored him and grabbed her mirror out of her bag, checking on her lipstick. The red was gone from her lips, and from the way the idiot kissed her back, it was in both

    There was a long pause as Gabriel analyzed the content of her message. He smiled, tossed the phone away, and threw himself on the bed. The little slut had no idea who she was dealing with.Shelly waited for a reply on the other side, but it did not come. The stupid old man was playing hard to get when she knew he had a very huge appetite for fucking girls his daughter's age.She did not plan on opening her legs for him but planned to outsmart him. Her initial plan of following him around and kissing him randomly was not going to work.She needed to find a way to get the entire lipstick into his system at once. She grabbed the lipstick and stared at it, pondering how she was going to do it.After much thought, she decided to crush it. She was diverting from Daniel's plan and going into a riskier one, but she did not care. He was not the one kissing the old pig.She placed the lipstick on a plate and diced it into tiny pieces, then waited for the sun to rise and placed it on the window

He and Rexa needed to start doing what they were intended to do and changing a lot of lives. Though Josh's issue kept nagging him. The man was yet to decide whether to walk or save his brother.

    Daniel placed both the heart and the brain in different cooler boxes, took two long trips to different parts of the country, and buried them both in different locations.His wish was for the old man to never see the sun or daylight again and for the stories of his existence to be a mere myth and forgotten with time.Once he was done, he instructed Rexa to delete the memory of the location in his head. Even Rexa went for it and deleted hers too si that Daniel's future generation would never locate the two organsHe went back for his body and burnt it while Max and his mother's bodies were taken back to the underground lab for the police to find, and the cause of death was ruled as lead poisoning from the leakage from the mine due to the blackout. By the time he headed home, it was morning, and all he wanted was to get some good sleep. He went straight to his mansion and found Aunt Carol on her feet, training her legs."It's over now, we can now pop that champagne," he announced.Aunt

    "If you want to live, stay calm and answer her questions!" Daniel warned them.He knew he was no longer in control, and Rexa was controlling everything using her own mind.Max tried to move his aching body across the room. Everything hurt; he felt like he had been tossed by an elephant on thorny rocks.Daniel moved closer to the bed, curious to see what Rexa was earlier calling a non-living thing."Move away from him!" Angela yelled at him.But he ignored her and was meant with a greyish-blackish tone of mass. It was human from the shape of the head and body, but the skin looked like it was about to rot but paused.He gulped as if he were about to vomit; it was not smelling, but the sight was nauseating."How dare you?" The old man yelled at him."What the fuck is this?" Daniel asked, looking in Angela's direction, but she looked away."A MAN THAT REFUSED TO DIE," Rexa popped up, "AND I THINK HIS CONDITION HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH WHAT HE TOOK ON THAT SHIP," she added."Shit, I guess

    "What did you just say?" Daniel asked."RODRICK IGRAM IS ALIVE, YOUR GREAT, GREAT, GREAT GRANDFATHER'S FRIEND, THE ONE THAT DIED," Rexa replied.Daniel shook his head, "That's impossible, how old was my grandfather when he first found you?" "18 YEARS OLD, SAME AGE AS RODRICK.""So that means Rodrick was born in 1807, and that would make him over 200 years old.""DANIEL, YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS; HE HAS TENS OF NEEDLES STICKING OUT OF HIS BODY, IT'S HIM; I KNOW IT'S HIM," Rexa replied.Inside the lab, Max called for backup and tried to get the magnates working, but without electricity, they were useless."She is here," his grandfather whispered."Who?""The relic, she is here," he replied with glittering eyes.Max quickly checked his camera footage and asked his men to search for Daniel, but they could not find anything."That's impossible, Daniel is nowhere near here.""She can manipulate sound or any form of matter, so do not expect to see Daniel near here," his grandfather laughed.Max

    "Anyone try to touch those guns and I swear, I will blow off their heads!" He warned on top of his voice.Rachel stared at him, shocked, while Cathy and Craig held each other's hands and moved to the other corner.Daniel removed his phone and made a call, instructing someone to come and guard the house. He ended the call and looked in Rachel's direction."Please stay in this house, and I will deal with everything," he assured her."You have no right to threaten me," she finally replied. "Actually I do, or maybe you want me to snap Mateo back into reality, and believe me, he still has men outside prison who he can hire and take you out!" Daniel warned.Rachel began biting her lips as all her words disappeared from her lips. Daniel just threatened her, he threatened her in front of her children."Mom, just do what Daniel is asking you to," Cathy finally spoke."Quiet!" Rachel yelled, breathing heavily."Watch what will come out of your mouth, because I am ready to make you sleep until

    When morning came and news of George Meyers' arrest was all over the news. Daniel, who had not slept because of the tunnel below Max's hospital, sat next to his aunt, who was in tears.Finally, the day she had always hoped for came after her five years in a coma, but it was worth the sleep. She held her nephew's hand with tears in her eyes."You did it," she whispered. "Your parents are looking down happily on their son."Daniel smiled at her."I will pop the wine after I get the head behind the order," he replied."Did you talk to Max?" She asked.Daniel analyzed her question, "Did you know about his real parents?" He asked."He confessed when I was in my coma," she replied. "I hope you understand he is just a victim of his family's greed.""I know we talked, though I had to kidnap him in order to make him talk," he confessed."What? Please tell me you did not hurt him." "Of course not; he is fine," Daniel assured her.Cathy, who was taking a shower, finished up and joined them."Gr

    Daniel slowly took a seat, trying to process everything. His best friend was Max's half-brother. He stared long and hard at him. There was a little resemblance physically and even in the way they carried themselves with the "I do not care" attitude, though Max was a total jerk if one did not know him personally.Zain was a more free type compared to Max, who always seemed to be above others. It was only after some time that he eventually warmed up. He wondered if that was part of the plan so that he could not suspect anything.He had a lot of questions in his head and a lot of memories kept popping up, but he could not comprehend the fact that the partner was around him all this time and neither George nor Josh or Gabriel suspected anything."Are you the one that shut down power at the Jerk's hospital?" Zain asked, trying to snap him out of his thoughts."Yeah, there is a private elevator in the hospital that leads underground, right?" Daniel asked."Tell me where Kendall is, and I wi

    Craig's heart began beating fast, and he was not sure how to react. The old man was sick in the head. He had held the man in high esteem, but knowing the man personally, made him want to vomit.First, he forced his niece to have sex against her will, and when that was not enough, he even went further and stole sperm from the man he drugged her with."Are we together?" Josh asked.Craig cleared his throat."Does Daniel know about this sperm?" Craig finally asked."No…," Josh replied. "This is about freeing your sister, but if you want, you can tell Daniel and ruin your chances.""This is betraying Daniel!" Craig raised his voice. "What kind of person are you?""Does Daniel know about the contract you signed with the partner?" Josh asked with a smile.Craig looked away."So what you are doing is not betraying, but what I am doing is betraying?" He asked. "If I am not correct, I would guess that you are going to allow Daniel to have a child that will be owned by the partner?" He asked.

    Daniel clenched his shaking hand, realizing how deep the betrayal was. A voice deep inside of him told him to go upstairs and confront them, but another voice told him to stay calm and use his head."WE FOUND THE PARTNER, DANIEL," Rexa whispered in excitement. "THIS EXPLAINS HOW ZAIN KNEW ABOUT THE RELIC FROM CHILDHOOD," she added.Daniel closed his eyes; he was not as excited as she was. He was somehow disappointed and not impressed that it turned out to be Max's family.But he was going to give credit where it was due. They hid perfectly in plain sight and knew when to show their faces. "WHAT'S THE PLAN?" Rexa asked, eager to take Max down."Shut down the building!" Daniel replied"WHAT?" Rexa was a bit confused."Electricity, Internet, I mean everything, shut it down!" He ordered"DANIEL, THIS IS A HOSPITAL, AND PEOPLE WILL DIE," Rexa warned."That's where generators come in," he replied, his tone a bit shaky. "DANIEL, WE ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO PLAY WITH LIVES," Rexa warned.Daniel
