Michael's heart began beating fast as Rachel pushed the gun harder against his back."I swear this is not a joke, I will shoot you and get away with it," she warned him."Fine, fine, I will let go of her," Michael said, finally letting go of Shelly.He moved away and turned to face the person with the gun.To his shock, it was Craig's mother. The woman always had scary rumors about her. And from the way she was looking at him, he could tell she was not joking.Shelly quickly ran behind Rachel, breathing heavily. She had no idea why the woman she had insulted some days ago was saving her ass."Ain't you supposed to be in jail?" Rachel broke the awkward silence, still pointing the gun at him. She was standing in a corner, making it difficult for people around them to see that she was pointing a gun at Michael."I got offered a deal," he replied.Shelly's eyes shot up, "By…by who?" "Your stupid boyfriend," he replied and watched as her face turned pale. He was right; she had no idea Dan

Elijah turned to face the door; he was very much aware of Shelly's feelings towards Daniel, and that was why he was always against his boss partnering with her, especially since Cathy was alive.He always knew that it was a disaster waiting to happen and it leave his boss in another mess to clean up."What did you expect after all this was over?" He asked her.Shelly's mind was somewhere else, recalling all the hell she went through for Daniel. She even went so far as to have her finger chopped off while Daniel was obviously fucking Cathy in the same mansion she was sleeping.She was not delusional and Daniel always reminded her to control her feelings towards him and keep them professional but he would have respected her and told her about Cathy.Her tummy coiled up as she raised her eyes to meet Elijah's. The fool knew all this while and was probably always laughing at her.She turned and walked down to the basement, where she discovered a fully furnished apartment with Craig and Ra

While Rachel was trying to make a deal, Gabriel was thinking of a successful trip too. He hated leaving his brother alone, knowing Daniel would pop up anytime he felt like it. That was if he was still alive.He arrived at his private Island hoping for a quick visit. He was welcomed by the caretaker and taken to the gardens, where George Meyers sat sipping on a cup of coffee."I hope all the money I am spending on taking care of you will finally pay off," he stated as he joined the man.George glared at him. For the past month, he had been nothing but cooperative, but the idiot brothers were still holding him hostage under the pretense of hiding him from Daniel."The partners? Do you have an idea who they are?" Gabriel went straight to the point.George scoffed, irritated. "Do you think I would be alive if I knew who they were?""You have to have an idea or a clue?"George stared at the man; he looked rugged up with an unkempt beard. Unlike the last time he saw him when he was very con

The room became heavy for Cathy as she began moving backward. The man knew her name, and he looked very familiar, but she could not remember where she had seen him before."What are you doing here?" He asked again, analyzing her. She looked thin and disoriented as if she were locked up or something."Who…are you?" She finally found the words."I am Zain, Daniel's best friend...Don't you remember me?" He asked.Cathy stared at him, trying to think hard."Daniel's best friend is my brother Craig; you are lying," she replied, moving further back.Zain smiled, remembering the childish fights he and Craig would always have over who was the best friend or closest friend to Daniel.He put his bag down and took a seat. "The last time I saw you was at the party when Daniel just came back from Israel," he replied.Cathy remembered the party and finally remembered the face: "Oooh, you are Daniel's weird computer hacker friend." She remembered. "You look different; you got rid of those glasses,"

Zain swallowed as Gabriel began moving closer to him."You hacked who?" He asked"Josh... was suspicious of the number, so I tried to find out who the caller was," he explained.Gabriel looked in his young brother's direction with an "I told you so" look."You are lying! Daniel must have told you to hack him!""No, it was my own curiosity before Daniel returned from Israel," Zain replied."Hack the number again," Josh finally said, pretending he had not heard the confession."What! Do you still trust him?" Gabriel yelled at him, disappointed."It does matter who he was spying for; what is important is finding out who the partner is," Josh replied. "We find them, we find Daniel!" He explained and turned his attention to Zain."So, in short, you are saying the person that uses that number has Daniel?" Zain asked. "None of your business," Gabriel replied."Gabriel, Zain knows everything," Josh stated."What? How?" "That's not important, Zain, can you hack the number again?""The numbe

Rachel kept staring at him; she had spotted his quick grimace that turned into seriousness in seconds. He looked more than happy to discover that Daniel's phone records were deleted.She wondered if he knew about the thing inside Daniel. According to the useless partner, the artifact was capable of doing unimaginable things, which only meant Daniel was capable of deleting his records, or maybe it was the useless partner she kept debating within herself."Am I allowed to go?" Zain asked."Craig, go and get me a takeaway," Rachel ordered."Mom, we can drop by the joint on our way out." "No, I want you to go and get me the food; I do not feel like moving," she replied, assuring him that she was not going to kill Zain."Chinese for me, and do not worry, there is nothing that your mother can do to me that I can't handle," Zain winked at him."Dude gross!" "Just joking," he laughed out loud.Craig gave his mother a warning look before leaving.As soon as he was out of sight, she leaned fo

Gabriel looked at his brother in horror, his heart beating fast. He had once watched the footage of George going nuts in court, and with the miracles that the Relic was capable of producing, he knew she was not joking."What? What's going on?... What did she say?" Josh asked.Gabriel tried to call the number again but could not get through. It looked like she had blacklisted him."Gabriel, talk to me!" Josh yelled at him"Daniel… Daniel planned to make me mad," he stated. Shelly wants one million dollars and she will confess to all of Daniel's plans."Josh looked away, not in any way surprised."She said there were pills, the same ones that he used on George!" He added trying to get through to the line."This is why we should find Daniel," Josh finally replied."No, I am going to kill that stupid bastard; he better wish he was dead!" Gabriel yelled"Calm down," "Do not tell me to calm down! There is something inside of me that is going to make me run mad!" He yelled."I know, first g

Daniel slowly opened his eyes; they did not feel heavy but instead were light, as if he had just gotten up from a long, good nap. His body felt light too, there was no pain or any heaviness in his chest like previously.He quickly got up from the small bed and looked around. He was still in the small lab."Rexa?" He called out."DANIEL, GET BACK TO SLEEP; YOU ARE STILL WEAK," she advised."How long have I been here?" He asked."ONE WEEK AND THREE DAYS." Daniel froze in horror."THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT I MANAGED TO RETRIEVE ALL THE RADIATION," she announced."What's the bad news?" He asked."I HAVE NO ENERGY, SO SHOULD YOU GO OUT THERE, I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PROTECT YOU, she replied.Daniel was quiet; all the energy they were saving for his aunt was wasted on him. His enemies dragged him back to square one. He closed his eyes, his hands clenched into fists."AND THERE IS SURVEILLANCE AROUND THIS PLACE; SOMEONE FOUND YOUR CAR, SO I WOULD NOT ADVISE GOING OUTSIDE," she advised.Daniel was
