In Alina's house which had now been taken over by Laura for nearly three months, Laura was intensely living Alina's life as her own.

About the safe that she stumbled upon earlier, Laura quickly saw that it was not connected to the power supply.

That was why it didn't come on when she pushed the power button, but as soon as she did, it roared alive and quickly fell into a gentle hum.

Laura was excited and got to work.

The chainsaw was so potent and advanced that it seamlessly cut open the safe as soon as Laura placed its edges on the safe.

It was either Alina was laundering money for someone, or she did another sort of crime because there were bundles of hundred dollar notes stacked in the safe.

Very heavy bundles.

Laura's eyes lit up ecstatically.

She had hit it.

This was the bullseye she was looking for.

The excitement that Laura was faced with, knew no boundaries at all.

In that lonely house, she screamed with excitement in celebration of this small win.

The money she had just

    After Barter had supposedly confirmed that Alina was out there and was just deliberately not talking to him, he felt relieved, and his energy doubled as he set out to carry on with Mr. Ban's assignment.Of course, it didn't take long for Barter to find out who the new kid on the block was.''Greg?'' He hollered when he completed his finding to the fullest. Barter's eyes sparked with fury. Who would have thought?''How did he get in? Who brought him in?'' Barter asked the comrade that gave him this sensitive information.''I heard it was Don Black and Bane,'' the comrade replied to Barter back.Barter's eyes shone. ''Bane?'' He asked with shock.Barter was more surprised at Bane's involvement with Greg than Don Black's involvement. Bane was the gangsta that Mr. Ban had called to help him get rid of Greg when Greg burst his wedding.Now, Bane was working with Greg and showing him the ropes of the business against Mr. Ban. Bane and Don Black had even withdrawn most of the allocation

    "That's not all boss. Don Black and Bane seem to be more on his side than they are on yours. My source informed me that they do business more with Greg Chase than with you. My source also made me understand that they are just doing business with you merely to keep the peace. The business you handle for them is gravely on the minimal, and every other of their businesses has been transferred to Greg..." Barter was explaining equivocally when Mr. Ban raised his hand to urge him to keep quiet. "I've had enough. You can end it now. I will take it from here. Stand by for my order!" Mr. Ban said with a quiet tone and dismissed Barter.Barter smiled.He knew his boss well enough, to know that when he got in this mood that was supposedly quiet, he was in fact the angriest, and would plot the dirtiest come back against his supposed enemies. "Sure boss!" Barter said and left. Mr. Ban stared into space, as all sorts of thoughts flashed through his mind. For Don Black and Bane to make this sud

  • Greg's Dreaded Return   Meeting With Barter

    Barter, desperate to secure his status in the city, started to rack his brain concerning the recent development. ''The only way to get your boss very upset about this, is to put it to him that Laura's disappearance has something to do with Greg stepping up the ladder!'' Barter's friend, Leroy, advised him. Barter frowned. ''Wait. Why have I never thought of this?'' He asked, rhetorically. Leroy smiled. ''I was wondering the same myself. What have you been thinking then, if this has never crossed your mind,'' Leroy asked. Barter shrugged and shook his head. ''It's Mr. Ban that made me forget about my thinking cap. He told me to forget about the issue, and that he has it under his control.Two months have passed, and he is still having it under his control via mere speaking. That new son-of-a-bitch has been making crazy sales. Sales that ought to belong to Mr. Ban, are now flourishing under another name. A damn rookie for that matter. And Mr. Ban says he has it under his control.

  • Greg's Dreaded Return   Close Call

    The lady at the front desk was a rude person, and Laura perceived it from afar. As a matter of fact, she could remember the lady from the first and only other time she was at the Bueno's hotel. And the lady could pretty much remember her as well. "Don't I know you?" The lady asked Laura, looking at her suspiciously.Laura didn't trust anybody, so she denied having ever met that woman before. When she revealed herself, the lady would go and tell Barter that his former girlfriend was living in the hotel. It would be such a catch. Besides, Laura was already skeptical, feeling that she had already told the lady enough for her to remember who she was. "Room 405 or 407," the lady repeated as she squinted at her computer, checking for any available rooms in that number. "Both of them are free. But they are the cheapest rooms in the hotel, full of bed bugs and all. Why do you want those nasty rooms?" the lady asked Laura as she fished for the room keys. "Just one of the rooms would d

  • Greg's Dreaded Return   I Saw Laura

    Laura was stupefied. As for Greg Chase, business had never been so good to him. He was expanding daily.Each day, he covered new grounds and territories, as the new kid on the block with a lot of talent and reasonable costs became a popular name in the industry that Greg was doing business. The farther Greg's reach spread across the city and beyond, the more angry Mr. Ban and Barter became. Especially Barter.He wanted to kill Greg by all means.Once, Barter spotted Greg in the city, but he could not get close to Greg because of the number of armed guards that Greg moved with.''Just take a look at this worthless human. How did he get here? This same Greg?'' Barter wondered. He remembered how Greg looked when he first came out of jail. Haggard was a nice word to describe Greg with as at then.He looked malnourished, hungry, angry, and finished.Greg, when he first came out of jail, didn't look like somebody that would ever touch the sort of money that he was currently swimming i

    Laura was at the beautification and fashion pew of the mall. She was stocking up on her disguising products and had not the slightest awareness that she had been spotted, and was about to be apprehended. The trio, Mr. Ban, Barter, and the gangsta that spotted Laura, split up and started to search the building. Mr. Ban took the elevator to the topmost floor penthouse and searched for Laura there. But then, his eyes caught a familiar figure at the mall, standing tall and confident, but the person was backing him Mr. Ban frowned slightly. He secretly walked towards this figure with his eyes flashing like a hell cat, but before he got close enough, his phone started to ring. Mr. Ban stopped in his tracks and looked at his phone. "Boss, I have just spotted her. What should I do boss, catch her?" Barter asked his boss, whispering while at it. "What? Are you crazy, Barter? Of course, catch her. Catch her before she disappears. Where did you see her?" Mr. Ban asked urgently, and turne

    ''Sorry boss!'' Barter said with soberness. Laura meandered her way through the crowd that was downstairs. She was lucky that she had been spotted in that crowded place if not there would have been no way that she would have been able to escape the trio that was after her. She tossed and turned and dodged until she got to the car. She slid in urgently, threw her shopping in the back seat, turned on the engine, and sped off, nearly knocking people over. ''Watch it! Who is this mad woman?'' A passer-by that Laura nearly knocked over yelled at her angrily, butLaura could not be bothered at all. All that was on her mind was how she was going to get out of that vicinity before things got out of hand. She sped out onto the freeway with her eyes in the rearview mirror most of the time. She had to make sure that no one was following her. Laura even took a couple of wrong routes deliberately. In case someone was trailing her and she was not aware of it, then she would throw the perso

  • Greg's Dreaded Return   Charles, What Are You Doing Here?

    This had to be a very fated day in the lives of Mr. Ban and his family and everyone around him.Margaret Ban, Charles Ban, and Lucy Ban were in the living room having an intense conversation. Charles had somehow met with Greg after that day of their first meeting, because he was new in the city, and had just started his company. Charles was trying to earn some money before Mr. Ban would find out that he had returned to the city and caught off his allowance out of anger. As a result, Lucy suggested that Charles worked in Greg's company for the time being, since there was no way he could work in the Ban family company without Damien his elder brother finding out. Charles and Greg had become friends, and in fact, when Lucy heard the story behind how Charles ran away from the city, she made sure she begged Greg with a passion, for him to help her uncle. ''How the tables have turned,'' Greg told Lucy when she first met him with the plea.Just a couple of months ago, Greg was the one i

    Greg Chase didn't know if he should laugh or cry. He stared at The Man until he was sure that The Man was serious about what he said, then he heaved a tired sigh. ''You cannot afford to do this to me. I mean...you sparingly ruined my life,'' Greg Chase complained, his eyes on The Man the entire time. ''You are the watcher, Mr. Chase. You shame me. The watcher ought to be more powerful than you are, but you are too full of yourself, so you cannot reach your full potential,'' The Man told Greg Chase. ''How powerful can I get?'' Greg Chase asked. ''Did you hear about the natural disaster that happened in the city Aklans weeks ago?'' The Man asked Greg Chase. Greg Chase nodded.''Yes, that was caused by a watcher like you. He was upset about something, and his intense anger caused a stir and an earthquake occurred. Though the government officials claim it to be solely a natural occurrence, it is a lie, and they know it...'' The Man told Greg Chase. Greg Chase was not sure he heard

    Greg Chase almost dropped dead when he heard everything. ''If you have anything to tell me, or there is an emergency, I bet you now know how to summon me. It took you two years to learn how to summon me, Greg Chase. Now, you know what pride can do to you. It can ruin you,'' The Man said as he gradually disappeared into space. Greg Chase stared in arrant shock.All this...it had to be a joke.''Boss...at least...you aware that you returned my colleagues back to our company, right?'' Scissors asked Greg Chase after The Man left. Greg Chase looked at Scissors casually and nodded. ''I have told you not to call me boss anymore,'' Greg Chase said.Scissors smiled. ''The boss is really back to himself. Boss, you have not told me that in the past two years, and I have only called you boss throughout,'' Scissors said, smiling. Greg Chase wished it could stop.Someone needed to come and tell him that all this was a dream.Ge desperately needed to hear that he had been pranked heavily. So

    Nowhere

    ''Master!'' Greg Chase muttered. Then he blinked. The next time that Greg Chase opened his eyes, he was in his living room on earth.He was leisurely watching TV and Scissors walked by casually. Greg Chase looked at Scissors, expecting him to freak out and ask how and where he had been but Scissors acted like every other day. As if nothing happened. Or?Had he been in a trance?''Scissors, what day is it today?''Wednesday,'' Scissors said. ''Where have you been in the last twenty-four hours?'' Greg Chase asked, looking at Scissors, squinting in confusion. It was as if his brain had been formatted. Scissors turned to look at him funny.''Keeping tabs on me now, huh, boss!'' he said, taking orange juice from the fridge and heading back inside the house, to his room. Greg Chase's eyes sparkled in confusion. ''I'm not keeping tabs on you. Fuck you,'' he said under his breath.''I heard you!'' Scissors yelled from afar. Greg Chase nodded with satisfaction. The first thing that

    Call Me Master!

    ''Boss?'' Scissors called, wondering why Greg Chase was looking at him like that. ''What is growing on your head?'' Greg Chase asked Scissors. Scissors frowned.Was it because he had indicated that something was funny about Greg Chase, that Greg Chase decided to switch up on him?''Boss, are you kidding?'' Scissors asked, flashing a weak smile.Greg Chase shook his head. ''There's a radio on your head,'' Greg Chase suddenly said.''Radio!'' Scissors muttered and raised his hand to touch his head but he did not feel anything, and to Greg's shock, Greg saw Scissors' hand pass through the radio. ''Ah, boss...you are playing the pranks on me. But there is an antenna on your head anyway,'' Scissors said to Greg Chase. Without wasting time, Greg Chase raised his hand to touch his head, and he was not surprised when he could not feel anything, yet he saw Scissors gasp in shock. ''Your hand passed through it,'' Scissors said. ''Same thing that happened to you. There's a radio on your h

    ''You...I must give it to you as the watcher with the biggest ego ever...'' The Man said to Greg Chase.Greg Chase frowned. ''Are there more watchers? I thought I was the only one,'' he said to The Man as he walked towards Scissors and started to pull him up again, but just like before, an unknown force repelled Greg Chase. The Man laughed his usual mocking laugh, one that made Greg Chase upset by all means. ''Can you please release my friend? What the hell?'' he asked The Man, anger flashing evidently in his eyes.''I am not holding your friend to anything, he will get up when he wants to,'' The Man replied.''And, about your question as to if there are other watchers, of course, there are billions of watchers around the world,'' The Man said to Greg Chase. ''I thought I was the only one. Are they also up to anything as big as mine? Do they try to take down their enemies or they are solely connected to the source of wherever this watcher thing comes from?'' Greg Chase asked. ''T

    Reverence The Man

    Greg Chase was beside himself, wondering why Laura had suddenly cut off from him.Yes, she might have been spotted in his house, but from the way he felt, he knew that word had not gotten to Mr. Ban about the fact that she was in his house, so why was she suddenly unavailable? Why was she no longer interested in their plan to overthrow Mr. Ban completely this time?He had his hopes on her, especially now that Don Black had looked in another direction, having found another ''young blood'' to show the ropes of the business and get acquainted with. No matter how many times Greg Chase called Laura Ban, it either did not go through, or she abruptly hung the call up on him.''Urgh, what the fuck is going on?'' Greg Chase asked himself. He felt as if everyone he knew and looked forward to helping him achieve one thing or the other, was turning their back on him. But, under what basis? What did he do, or what did they suddenly realize for them to have such a decision made overnight?''Boss

    Hanging By A Thread

    ''What is it?'' Shadow asked, looking very interested in Barter's thoughts. Barter had been looking at him with so much intensity, he had to know what was on Barter's mind while he was looking at him. Barter looked at Shadow closely.If he told Barter what he knew, everything could take another turn for the worst, but he also wanted Laura Ban to face the repercussion of the trouble that she had doled out on others. Shadow stared at Barter, waiting for an answer. ''I was just wondering when you will ever settle down with one woman. You should be married by now, you know...'' Barter suddenly said. Shadow was surprised. ''Are you kidding me right now?'' he asked Barter.Barter shook his head. ''Nope! After you lost your ex-wife, I could understand you staying away from relationships and not wanting to commit to anyone anymore, but it's been nearly ten years since that happened. Don't you think you need someone by you to make you feel better? You know what I mean. Even gangstas nee

    Weighing The Odds

    Barter was getting frustrated, and desperate. After spending more than two decades with Mr. Ban, he was easily going to throw him, Barter to a corner just because of a loose whore he called his wife? He stared at the door of the room as if he wished that his eyes would bore a hole through. ''Preposterous,'' he muttered as he suddenly turned to leave. In the living room, when Barter stormed in angrily, he saw Shadow. Barter looked at Shadow as if he was seeing a ghost. ''Dude, where the hell have you been for nearly two weeks?'' Barter asked, shocked. Shadow rolled his eyes. ''Did you really expect me to hang around so that I will get discovered by Chase and the rest of them that I am on Ban's side?'' Shadow asked. Barter suddenly realized. There was no way Greg Chase and his cohorts would not have found out about Shadow playing both sides, the tension and pressure were too much, especially after the war. ''You are right, you would have been spotted,'' Barter said.

    The Garment Of Wickedness

    ''We just had a few drinks and nothing more,'' Laura Ban said. By this time, they had arrived at the home of Mr. Ban.Mr. Ban hurried out of the car as if, if he stayed there for one more second, something will happen to him. ''Boss!'' Barter greeted him as soon as he sighted him. He had been waiting rather impatiently for Mr. Ban to return and give him a rundown of what happened at Laura Ban's house. Barter would have been the one to follow Mr. Ban to Laura Ban's family house, but his hideous face did not allow him. ''How did it go, boss?'' Barter asked. Mr. Ban glanced at Barter and rolled his eyes. Barter knew at once that Mr. Ban must have been ridiculed and insulted. The look on the man's face was so intensely upset. Barter spotted Laura Ban behind, hurrying up to meet Mr. Ban, and he obviously hissed, loudly enough so that Laura Ban would hear him. But of course, at the moment, Laura was bothered about something else, so she paid Barter no mind. She hurried towards Mr
