2024-10-25 15:19:45Alice is so angry right now. She has just sat in he car and heard all the wrong that everyone has been doing to her boss since he stopped into the city. Especially his wife!
Gray Lance is a hero! If not for him, they will still be locked up in their houses and hiding under their beds with the fear of war. Why are they treating him like this? Because of the accident that left him a blind, they are now treating him like trash? She can't believe that even his wife, Wendy is on to this! She has never met Wendy before, but she has helped Gray to pick out the best diamond necklace for her. Gray loves her very much and used to spend so much on her. But she has turned against him because he was away for just a few years?! What a bad wife! “Sir, do you want me to deal with her for you?” Alice asks with a pained look. “Just give me the order, sir, I will go around the city and make sure that all of these people pay for all their sins against you! Especially Wendy Lance.” Gray smiles at her swift move to defend him, but he asks her to calm down. “Alice, you are a faithful follower of mine, I like that, but I want you not to get angry just yet. I have something else to show you. First of all, let's go to my mansion.” Her eyes bulge and her jaw drops to the ground. “Mansion? Sir? But have you forgotten that you don't have a house anymore? You were gracious enough to leave your house to your wife, but she has used it for her personal gain. Which other house are you talking about?” Gray laughs at her ignorance. He feels around her small jeep and inhales deeply. “How about we do less talking and just get going, shall we?” Alice is not used to asking her boss too many questions, so she starts to drive the car to where he asked her to. A small gasp leaves her mouth when she sees that her boss has directed her towards the Golden Gates estate. Oh, nothing much to worry about, only that the Golden Gates estate is home to strictly the billionaires of the city! Yes, her boss is rich and he is one of the top ranking military officers, but even that is not enough to get him a house in Golden Gates! Is he playing a prank on her? No, this has got to be a joke! She glances at him, but he still looks very serious She gets the huge gates, that are painted just as their name implies. It would take a lot of clearance to go through this gate right now… Five security men jump in front of the gates and order them to stop. “Hold up! Who is this? Who is this that has come to the Golden Gates with so much audacity?!” The head of the security barks. Alice looks tense. She knows that this is not a good idea, but Gray, he doesn't look disturbed at all. “Good evening, boys. Gray Lance, Member of the estate.” Gray says. “No, you are not. If not, why haven't we seen your face before?” One of them snorts. “Are you new? Even if you are, we would have been alerted.” “No, I'm not new. I have owned a house here for over five years.” Gray rolls his eyes. The security men look at each other, they don't believe this. The cheapest house here is over 200 million dollars. This man comes up in a common old jeep and they are supposed to believe that he owns a house? Gray sighs, he is tired of them holding him. He pulls up his golden card, the pass that every resident is supposed to have. “Here,” he waves it for them to see. “Does that clear your doubt now?” The leader snatches the card and looks at it. With concentration. It's authentic, he can tell because the golden card is not something that can be replicated. There is only one explanation for this. This man stole it. “Are you a thief?” Alice is gripping the wheel a little too tightly. These disrespectful men don't know how they are dealing with them. “Excuse me, he is not a con artist, and also, my boss doesn't like to be kept waiting.” She sighs. The security whistles and shakes hands with each other. “Oh, the pretty lady speaks.” He chuckles. “Tell me, how much did he pay you to drive him here and trick us into allowing you people in.” She rolls her eyes. She turns to Gray, let him just give her the go ahead and she is going to deal with them. Gray holds her hand. The security are getting more violent and even more disrespectful, but if not for Gray holding her back, she is staying still. “Get out of the car, miss. Your con artist friend too! A blind man who is also a thief!” The security instructs. “We are not going to call the police, we are going to call the military!” Gray laughs. He wishes they would. Alice looks at Gray again, wishing that he would allow her to do what's in her heart. She won't hurt them too much. But she recognizes the look on his face.It's an order for her to hold her horses. “Hey! What's going on here?!” A car has just pulled up behind them and a man angrily walks up to the gate. “Why haven't you opened the gate already? What's the reason for this commotion?” He asks angrily. “Forgive us, boss. This is the third time this month that thieves are trying to sneak their way into the estate.” The head of the security says. “But don't worry, we have caught this man. Oh, you are going to be so proud of us.” The man turns to look at the occupants in the car and his face immediately turns white. “Mister Gray Lance!” He throws himself to the ground and bows to Gray. Gary looks ahead with a smile on his face. “ahhh, Mister manager? Is that you?” “Yes, yes, Mister Lance!” The manager shivers. The security is thrown into surprise. Why is their boss, the estate manager, throwing himself on the ground in front of this poor man?

Didn't you say that we were thieves?”

It was all for show! He walks over to the kitchen and brings some champagne and glasses. Something to calm her down. She is so shaken by the news that there are tears in her eyes. She drinks some of the wine and places her hand underneath her nose. “I know, it's a lot.” Gray chuckles. “But you never told me anything sir.” Alice shakes her head. “I would have helped you.” “Alice, I didn't tell you anything because that could get you into trouble. They tried to kill me, you would have died if you knew about my plan.” Alice sighs as she drinks some more. He is telling the truth though, she might be so skilled in combat and is also a trained soldier, but the truth is that the military and the go

In the flesh after so many years? To be honest, I think that you are dead.” He goes up to his mother, gives him a kiss and sits next to her.“Dan Blanchard,” Gray nods. “I thought that you would change, but you haven't…” Gray notices the expensive shoes and watch that Dan is putting on.

He even paid rent years in advance for them, but now he is asking them to pack out and claim that he owns the place? Dan stands up and looks at his mother, as if to confirm if she heard the madness that has just come out of this man's mouth. “Have you gone mad, you stupid fool?!” Dan barks. “Because you paid a little rent for us, you think that you can order us to leave this house?!” “You can do no such thing, Gray, I bet you!” Mrs Blanchard dares him. “Besides, even if you paid the rent, so what? The rent you paid is going to expire this year and my daughter's boyfriend has said he will even pay ten more years for us!” Gray laughs because the Blanchard family has got to be one of the most stupid in the world. “You think that I am talking about rent?” He looks at them and hiss. “This is legally my house!

All the Generals of Westland are dead, throwing the president into a fit of rage and sorrow.

How can he not cry like a kid that dropped their ice cream in a park? He just lost the leaders of his army! He blows his nose into his handkerchief and shakes his head when one of his assistants offers him to quit and do this on a later date. “No, the world needs to know what the Mars has been doing! It's safe to say that the masked man has turned into a terrorist!” He yells into the microphone. “Do you all hear me? Your hero has turned into a terrorist! He killed the Generals of the army like they were nothing, and what does that tell you people? That this country is under attack!” The journalists look at each other, before leaning forward even more. “Mister president, can you speak about the news that the Generals were found with questionable

William almost drops a few tears when Gray told him that. He gets to kill those good for nothing sons of bitches?! “Yes, sir! Are you kidding me?! I will be the happiest person to be the one to kill all those wicked men!” William rejoices. He is so happy that he doesn't even know when he hugs his boss! Gray doesn't take offence to this, he knows that William is just being happy! William wipes the tears from his face. “William, look at me, this is the most serious thing that you have ever done in your life, are you sure that you can do it?” Gray asks. “Yes, sir, I can do it! I will use everything that I have to make sure that this is done well!” William says. But Gray is still very serious, he places a hand on William's shoulder. “You are going to put on my uniform, you are going to wear my mask, and you are going to kill all of them. Is this too much pressure for you? Tell me, and I will get someone else to handle it…” Williams lips parts. Will he get to wear the Mars' uniform?

William doesn't know what Gray wants from him, when he drives him to the park one evening. He has been waiting for the almighty Mars to send him on a mission, but he has spent weeks in the house, sometimes helping Miss Yashin around at the office too, but he hasn't done much. He has decided to keep himself very busy by going to the gym for hours, and helping Stacy around the house. He has been very restless, because he wants to kill and repay all the evil that was done to his family, but the Mars has been very calculative and slow with his plan. He didn't ask for any progress, out of respect and fear of the Mars. He was starting to feel impatient, but he calmed himself as much as he could….Then the strange day comes when the Mars asks him to pack a bag, and he drives them to the park. They get out and take a walk, around the running kids and relaxing adults. William notices the way that Gray's eyes are expressionless, and that makes the anxiety inside of him grow even more. H

Gray smirks, even when it seems like his secret has come to light, and he should be panicking. “You think I am the Mars?!” He cocks his head. “Of course not.” Mateo says. “That's not exactly what I am saying, you see…” Mateo pauses his sentence to pull a chair and sit in front of Gray. “You are not the Mars, but you work for him, you are his… puppet and he makes you do his dirty work. That's the only way that he keeps being mysterious and keeps slipping through my fingers, because you are his doppelganger. You put on his mask, and do some of his dirty work for him…” Mateo holds his breath, he feels very happy with how he has dismantled this situation. “Wow.” Gray claps his hands slowly, shaking his head with a fake impression. “Are you mocking me right now?” Mateo squints. “I mean, that's a very creative mind you have there, for you to think that I, the man you haven't thought much of, is the one who has destabilized the country.”Mateo feels a hot rush to his face, maybe he d

Of course the president hates that Mateo has not been able to keep his side of the promise, he doesn't even hesitate to give Mateo a piece of his mind. He is at the office, and he is scared that his assistant would hear, so he gets into the bathroom and shuts the door. “Mister president, if you can just give me a minute or two to explain myself.” Mateo runs his hand over his forehead. “Please, I don't wish to waste any of my time with you! How dare you, Mister Mateo?! You want to make me the laughing stock of the country?!” He blasts. “Sir, please give me a minute –” “The Mars is still out there, acting with a mysterious air around himself, and I have to explain to the people why he is still free– defying me!” “Mister president, please!” Mateo begs. Can this man just stop screaming for a while and let him get some few words out! He hits his hand against the wall and his face contorts with suppressed anger. “Sir, I didn't say that I wasn't going to kill the Mars for you, I only

Stacy's face goes red immediately, she knows how men are, and how they would never accept that they are having such a problem. Wendy falls to the ground and wails some more, and at this point, Stacy has to put aside her difference with her cousin and gets down on her knees to comfort her. “I'm so ashamed to tell even my mother about this, not even my friends! Mateo doesn't even want to go to the hospital with me, and I have just become even more and more depressed!” She cries. “Wendy, stop crying, please. Everything is going to be fine, okay?” Stacy rubs her back. “How do you get Gray to listen to you?” She sniffles. “He even kills for you, but not Mateo. He is always angry, and I don't know why.” “Men are different, and it's not your fault that Mateo behaves the way he does.” Stacy sighs. “You will be fine.” “Fine?” Wendy snorts. “Mateo's mother just slapped me yesterday and told me to give her a grandchild, or she is going to kick me out!” That's a lie, the only person who

After thinking about it for a while, Wendy decides that she is going to pay her dear cousin a visit. She drives to the house and even bought some baby stuff as gifts. When she gets to the house, she parks her car a distance away, because she wants to make sure that Gray is not in the house. She is still very scared of him. She ducks when she sees him and when he drives away, she grabs her gift and gets to the front of the house. She presses the bell and waits. Stacy opens the door, looking white and tired. She pulls her lips together in worry as soon as she sees her cousin. “What do you want, Wendy?” “Geez, what did I ever do to you?” Wendy asks. “I came here bearing gifts and you are being so rude towards me?” Stacy won't allow her to gaslight her, so she holds the door in her hand and won't even move an inch. “You can't be here, Wendy. I don't want to talk to you, I don't think there is any reason for you to be here, so I want you to leave.” Wendy sighs. Of course Stacy

“I can't believe Gray. He has turned into a devil and killed those people in our living room!” Wendy wipes her tears. “What are we going to do with the two dead bodies now? What are we going to tell your parents? We should tell your parents, we can't allow this to slide.” She is stroking his hair, but Mateo shrugs her away and gets up to his feet. “Are you dumb, Wendy? Can't you see how dangerous of a man he is? It's your fault that he found out! If not, why did he even come here in the first place?!” Wendy winces as she takes a few steps back and blinks. “It is my fault? I didn't tell him anything! He just guessed that you were behind it, he doesn't have any evidence to defend his claim.” Mateo holds his hand over his forehead, he is breathing steam out of his nostrils. “I have to take care of this! I have to get rid of those bodies before they start to stink the place up!” He walks out of the kitchen, and Wendy lets out a sigh. She looks at her hands, they are still shaking f

Wendy holds her hands over her mouth and let out a blood curdling scream. She is not screaming because Gray has just killed two more people in front of her, no, she is screaming because he has just soiled her expensive carpet with blood!“That's an expensive Persian carpet!” She yells. “What's wrong with you, Gray?!” “What the fuck, Gray!” Mateo shouts too. “Have you gone mad?” Gray moves the gun to face them, and they immediately freeze as soon as they see that. “Gray, don't.” Mateo raises both of his hands. “Maybe you should ask me if I am crazy again.” Gray says calmly. Wendy is now tongue tied. She has seen Gray use guns many times, and she knows that he can kill them if he wants. “Gray, please, don't do anything crazy. Please, you don't want to hurt us.” Mateo is not begging, he has a gun on him almost all the time– he even has one now– and he reaches to grab it, but Gray fires another shot. It leaves a smoking hole in the wall, very dangerously close to his face. Mate
