''How is it going with the Ban Miss?'' Don Black asked Austin Black as soon as he got home. ''It's just the first-day dad,'' Austin Black replied, deliberately making his father feel as if he had not done anything to progress in the direction of the reason he was working in the first place. Don Black was about to frown and scold Austin Black, but Austin Black quickly fed him with news that he liked. ''Though, she offered to drop me off at home after work,'' he added. ''Eh?'' Don Black exclaimed and burst into laughter. ''Say god?'' He asked Austin Black. ''god,'' Austin Black replied and nodded, smiling while at it. Don Black laughed until his stomach hurt. ''I told you. I told you that going there without a car and asking Thomas to come and pick you up later was a fantastic idea. How can she ever think that someone like you will not have a car? For crying out loud,''Don Black ranted, laughing in the middle of his words. ''I guess she was just trying to get close, to be hone
At Mr. Ban's house, it was lit. "Charles, Charles!" Barter was in Charles Ban's room, calling him, and trying to get him to wake up.Charles Ban opened his eyes slowly, eyeing Barter with contempt. "What? Can I not sleep in peace, what the hell is so urgent?" Charles Ban asked. "Go to the living room and see what your brother got you," Barter said with glee. Charles Ban raised an eyebrow. "What on Earth could it be? Enough to deprive me of my sleep, ehn, Barter?" Charles Ban grumbled as he struggled to climb out of bed. The only things he currently enjoyed were sleep and food. Nothing else was available to him. "Don't worry, I promise you that it is something you will love," Barter said, smiling at Charles Ban eagerly as he only made his way to the living room. Charles Ban had seen Lloyd in his house, but nothing prepared him for what he saw next. Charles Ban's eyes widened when he saw the girls he knew were there for business. Four of them looked delicious and ready for act
While all the drama was going on between Lucy Ban, Austin Black, Lloyd, and the Bans, Shadow was investigating Alina. If we are being honest, nobody would leave a million dollars to a partner just because the partner was proving hard to find. Every day, he pulled up at Alina's house at the edge of town, hoping to catch her slacking.''She must not have heard that I am out. We don't have any mutual friends, so why is she so unavailable?'' Shadow asked himself time without a number.Each time he went to Alina's house, he waited until deep into the night, but nobody ever showed up.One time, he dared to venture into the house, but the place seemed very deserted as if no one had been there in ages. That was the first time Shadow decided that he would not bother visiting that house anymore.Cobwebs were all over the house. Besides, he got in too easily, the door was ajar. The way the door creaked made Shadow sure that there was absolutely no one inside that house, and it has been so fo
Charles Ban was having a swell time. All four females were his, and Mr. Ban could not bring himself to secure any of the girls just yet because Laura had her eyes on him throughout.In fact, she had already started to throw a tantrum without him doing anything with the girls, asking him why he would ever think to bring such girls into their home. ''They are for Charles. I have nothing to do with them, those girls are for Charles, and you can see it. Why bother me like this?'' Mr. Ban queried. ''Bother you? Did you say II bother you?'' Laura Ban asked. ''It's only a matter of time before you start to get interested in them yourself. Why won't you send them out of here? It's been weeks now,'' Laura Ban complained. Apart from the fact that she feared Mr. Ban going after the girls as well, she felt a pang of jealousy for the fact that Charles Ban was having them. Mr. Ban was now in a tight spot. Apart from the presence of those girls, he had been indoors for too long. For how long w
''Mr. Ban is alive!'' Austin Black abruptly said as soon as he saw his father after his date with Lucy. Don Black's eyes shone in shock.''Are you playing?'' He asked Austin.Austin Black shook his head.''No jokes at all,'' he replied.''I sparsely complained about having lost my mom recently, and then I asked her if she had ever lost a loved one. Father, mother, uncle, aunty...she replied that she never met her father, so she would not consider it a loss, but that apart from that, she had never lost any close family member to death,'' Austin Black explained. ''Are you kidding me? That means Mr. Ban is the faceless person,'' Don Black yelped and hurried to the phone to call Greg Chase. Austin Black shrugged.''Well, I guess. All I know is that the man is not dead,'' Austin Black added. ''I was just about to call you to ask the situation of things,'' Greg Chase said as soon as he picked up Don Black's call. ''Austin has done the assignment. Ban is alive. Now I confirm that he is
Word had gone out. Finally, it was time for war again. It was time for action. All the men of Don Black, Bane, and Greg Chase were excited to hear that they would be indulging in heated action that night. It had been a boring couple of weeks, and if anyone was being frank, they were losing their mojo. ''Load up all the barrels to the maximum,'' Bane ordered his excited men, while his establishment was busy with intense preparation. ''Yes boss,'' the leader of Bane's gang, Malik said with energy. Malik had been complaining. Nearly every day that passed had Malik complaining about the inaction that had suddenly taken up the stem in their gang, and now he was more than excited to be back to work. ''Marcus! We are back on track. Some action, finally!'' Malik called his friend, Marcus from Boss Shen's gang. Marcus' eyes glared. ''Is this a new business line, or have you been able to figure out who the faceless person is?'' Marcus asked Malik. ''We suspect that Ban is not dead. We
Marcus froze on the spot when he sighted Mr. Ban.''Boss! He's alive, Mr. Ban is alive, I've seen him,'' Marcus turned around and mouthed the words to Boss Shen.A pang of fear hit Boss Shen, but he pulled Marcus back.''If they spot you, they'll kill you. Let me be in front,'' Boss Shen said as he pulled Marcus to the back.When Boss Shen spotted Mr. Ban as well, he froze on the ground.This had to be a joke, it had to be a dream. Mr. Ban was hale and hearty, in fact, Mr. Ban even looked better than he ever did before he entered a coma. Mr. Ban was conversing with another man that Boss Shen could not identify.It was Lloyd. In Boss Shen's entire life, he had never been this frightened. ''Ahem!'' Boss Shen cleared his throat nervously. He remained as close to the door as he could so that in case anything went wrong, he could easily turn around and make a run.''What?!'' Mr. Ban yelled in dread, took out his gun, and pointed it at Boss Shen.''If you move an inch, you are dead,''
"The person that shot at you is in this house. We must not allow him to see you," Barter told Charles Ban as he led him and Lucy underground.He had already sent Lloyd's girls to a different room in the underground and was now leading Charles and Laura Ban finally. "The person that shot me is here? Why have we not shot him? You want to leave him until he has the chance to aim at me clearly this time?" Charles Ban asked. "No, you won't get to see him, or he won't get to see you rather," Barter replied. Charles Ban glanced at Barter nervously. "I hope nothing goes wrong. How did anyone even find out about us? What happened?" Charles Ban asked."I don't know about that for now, all I know is that there is no time to mess around. Get in. Get inside the room," Barter said, gently pushing Charles Ban and Laura inside the room that Mr. Ban and Lloyd were in. "Is everything ready? Malik, send some people to go and keep surveillance on the house while the rest of us show up later," Don Bl
