Josh slowly tied a mutton cloth against Shelly's hand as she cried out, her entire finger was severed as she shook in pain. The pain was unbearable; she wanted to scream at the top of her lungs, but she had no energy.

"All you have to do is tell my brother the truth, and you will be out of here," Josh whispered to her.

Shelly looked down at him, tempted to bite his stupid face. She was now a disabled person without a finger. She kept thinking to herself. No one was going to want her

As she wailed in pain, the thought kept running through her mind again and again.

Josh looked at his brother, disappointed.

"We have to make her talk; even if she walks out of here dead, she can't do shit," Gabriel spat out.

"Well, Daniel can use this against us," Josh yelled at him as he got up.

His brother was always making rushed decisions, which always forced him to do the cleanup.

"If she does not start talking, she will leave here without her fingers," he warned.

Josh lifted Shelly's chin, warning he

    "Keep quiet," Daniel whispered back and led her to the car, ignoring Gabriel, who had walked out and was cursing him.

    "Kendall! Kendal! Kendal!" Daniel kept calling as she stared at the phone, still wondering how it switched and answered itself."Kendall I know you are there; please say something," Daniel begged. He knew he only had a small window to carry out his plan under the Hamiltons' noses.Kendall snapped out of it and cleared her throat."Daniel, how are you calling a phone I switched off?" She whispered."New technology," he lied, relieved that she was talking to him even after all the awful things he said to her. "I will explain that later, but listen to me." "Daniel, you pointed a gun at me," she interrupted him before he could explain his plans.Daniel paused"Why Daniel?""Kendal, your father needs to believe that I hate you and detest you for him to believe that I would never help you escape them," he explained.Kendal gasped, unsure of how to react."So all those... words you said... you did not mean them?" "No, I did not," he replied."Yes, you did! Stop fucking lying! It's not like

    Morning came with Craig's eyes still alert as he was the previous night, he could not sleep. It was morning, but there were no calls from Mateo or his men.He looked outside the window, checking for the usual car that was always watching and keeping an eye on them but found the usual place where it packed empty.He ran outside, checking the entire neighborhood, but could not spot any cars. Something was not adding up. First, Mateo was not contacting him, and now no one was watching them.He picked up his newspaper and walked back into the house."Where did you go?" His mother asked."Have you noticed the car that watches us has stopped watching us?" He asked."Yes, I noticed that yesterday. Just ignore it and enjoy the freedom," his mother urged him."What freedom, mother?" "Can't you smell it?" She asked."Mom, yesterday I went to obtain a loan on Mateo's orders, and he asked me to wait for further orders, but up to now he has not contacted me."Rachel's smile disappeared. "What? Wh

    Mateo quickly lifted his arms, while Josh remained frozen in his trance."How many men are in the mansion?" She yelled."Just... just..." Mateo was startled."Speak up, you stupid fool!" Rachel warned as she fired a warning shot in the air."Just four painters," Mateo replied, shaking."Liar?" Josh slowly turned, raising his arms in the air. To his surprise, it was Rachel Nash."I thought I warned you not to move!" Rachel warned."What on earth are you doing?" Josh asked."What are you doing here? Are you in a business partnership with this animal?" She yelled, pointing the gun back and forth between the two men."No, I am not; would you please put the gun down?" Josh urged her."No, I will not!" She replied, focusing the gun on Mateo and ordering him to call all his men out of the building."Excuse me, ma'am, I do not know your problem with me, but I think you might be confusing me with someone else," Mateo protested.Rachel moved closer to him, pissed and ready to pull the trigger.

    Cathy began panicking as she tried to grab the phone away from Daniel. But he got out of bed and asked her to calm down as he tried to think."She is going to kill herself!" She cried out. "You have to help her! You have to help her!""Cathy, calm down; I know," Daniel replied, pressing on his temple.Cathy quickly held his hands."Call her back, call her; maybe if she hears my voice she will come back to her senses," she pleaded."Cathy, no, the plan is not over, and she is with Josh, whom I do not trust right now," Daniel explained."What do you mean?" She asked "I thought it was Josh Hamilton that helped you run away all those years ago," she asked."It's a long story; I will come and explain later, but Josh knowing that you are alive is very dangerous," he explained and laid her down to take a seat.Cathy was more confused; it looked like there were a lot of things that Daniel was hiding from her."Just trust me, and I will solve this," he replied."What are you going to do?"

    The office became hot for Josh as he loosened his tie. The boy had just made a checkmate move that he did not see coming or expect.Either, he cleaned up the mess or Biopharm goes in to smock just like Daniel did with Lidigo. He got up and walked out of the room fuming. His entire face was red. He still had the magnet but they were still making modifications.Daniel watched the man with a smile. He was used to seeing a calm and collected Josh Hamilton, but the man he was seeing was in a panicked mood. He wondered what he was doing at Mateo's in the first place when he was never an associate, which could only mean he had gone to snitch after learning about the attack on his company.Daniel smirked as he leaned on his chair, waiting for the man to make the call he was waiting for. But instead, the man began walking around the mansion like a lost puppy."DANIEL, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Rexa asked."I had no choice," Daniel tried to explain."THE MACHINE THAT YOU FORCED ME TO HIDE WILL HAV

    "Ooh, okay, thank you, Rexa," Daniel replied, not knowing what to say. He was expecting her to continue nagging about how he was favoriting Cathy instead of her, but to his surprise, she switched back to seriousness and finally gave him the information he needed."Are we cool, now?" He asked."HOW ARE YOU GOING TO SIGN THAT CONTRACT WITHOUT HURTING ME?" She asked, ignoring his question."Ooh, that, hibernation, like you did last time," he replied."BUT THAT WILL MAKE YOU SLOW, AND YOU WON'T SENSE THE DANGER, IN CASE JOSH HAS A PLAN B?" She warned him."Do not worry about me; I will figure that out. Take a break; you need it," Daniel replied, getting into his shower.After he was done, he called the lawyer to draft the contract and said goodbye to Cathy, who was still giving him the uncomfortable look. He knew she was more worried about the name Rexa than him biting her.He drove to a pharmacy and got all the supplies that Shelly needed, then drove to his mansion.He walked in and foun

    The room became cold; tempers raised. No one planned to be in such a complicated situation when they woke up, but it appeared destiny brought them to the mansion, and if emotions were going to be used, more bodies were going to be riddled with bullets.Rachel and Josh glared at each other, ready to shoot, while Daniel sat in his chair, taking a bite of the pizza that tasted like paper.He noticed Rexa's hibernation placed some strain on a number of his senses. He had no idea if it was all the senses, but taste and eyesight were giving him problems.He rubbed his temples, feeling a little dizzy; it was like a part of him was missing."Are you just going to sit there and watch them shoot each other?" Mateo whispered."That's their choice to make; the two are old enough to be grandparents," Daniel joked. "Besides, if they both kill each other, it will be easier to clean up this mess and claim one died protecting you," he smiled.Both Josh and Rachel stared at him, pissed."You think this

    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
