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

Rachel quickly began picking up the phone pieces, trying to put the phone together, but her hands were shaking so badly that she could not hold a piece. If she recalled correctly, the person who called her by her first name was Zain, the baboon head. She clearly remembered getting offended by the stupid boy.But because he was her son's age, there was no way he would have worked with George. Unless he was the son of the stupid partner."Craig! Craig!" She yelled on top of her voice.Craig came running into her room and found her on the floor, trying to put the phone together."What happened?""Put...put the phone together!" She ordered."Mom, what happened?" "Just...put the fucking phone together!" She yelled, moving to the window to get some fresh air. Craig analyzed her; she was shaking, but first, he put the phone together and tried to turn it on; it turned on, and he joined her at the window."You are lucky, but I think you should get a new screen," he commented, handing it to

"Sir, should I take a shot?" The sniper kept asking, but Gabriel's mind was at a loss as he took a seat."Sir, should I stand down?" The sniper asked.The earlier plan was to shoot Shelly point blank as soon as Gabriel walked away. But the sniper was confused to see a man talking to his boss and getting the briefcase.The photo he was given was of a woman with blond hair, not a man."Sir, the person you were talking to is getting away. Should I stand down?" The sniper asked, but Gabriel's mind was astray.Josh, who was still in the hospital and heard the entire conversation between Michael and his brother, was left numb in his bed. The part that hit him the most was the Cathy part. He laughed out loud and now understood why Rachel was all over the place looking for Daniel like some obedient pet.The duo was the most unexpected pair that he had not expected to work together, but he now understood why. Daniel faked Rachel's daughter's death, then concentrated on sending Mateo to prison

"Bring Kendall here, and I will not hurt Cathy," Zain typed, waiting for a response after a long pause from Daniel."Seriously! You are holding me hostage!" Cathy yelled at him in disbelief."Do not worry, Daniel did the same with Kendall in exchange for Shelly, so we can still be friends," Zain explained.Daniel held his head, realizing what was going on. He placed his hands over his face. It was already clear that Josh had fed him his version of the story and made him to be the villain of the story."Your loving boyfriend betrayed Kendall, so do not judge me," he added."Zain, I did not betray Kendall. She is fine, the exchange was part of an act," Daniel finally typed."What do you mean?" Zain asked, confused. "Are you hiding her too?""Something like that, but Josh must not find out; as far as he knows, I hate Kendall and forced her to run," he explained.Zain was quiet, trying to process what was on the screen."Kendall is hiding from her family, her father and uncle betrayed her
