"H-Hallander. He's alive. He's back. He texted me. Oh my God!"

What does this mean?

"Are you sure, Jeanne? How do you know it is him? Is he this person texting you?"

"Only him calls me bubblegum. It's an inside joke we have. So there is no way someone else will know me as that. Also, I havent changed my number since his death. Possibly why he could reach me. Oh my God, I don't know what to think!"

Aiden led her to the sofa so she could sit.

"Calm down, Jeanne. Pause and reflect. Can you text him back?"

"It's blocked. It's an encrypted number. I can't send a message back to him. Does this mean he is jn danger? Or did someone torture him before they killed him and extracted information from him?" Jeanne kept asking questions unending. Aiden noticed that she also jiggled her leg in anxiety, tapping her left foot on the ground. Aiden reached out to still her knee by placing a hand on it.

"Jeanne, look at me. I will get to the root of this. In no time."

"You promise? If he is dead, I don't

    Aiden got home in just before 6pm. The sky had taken on a reddish gold hue and a cool breeze caressed his skin as he got out of his car. One of the servants was already waiting to take his bag and jacket."Welcome, Young master.""My father is home, isn't he?""Yes sir. Just in his study. He has company though. Sherlock and Adam Revenmar are here. They came just some minutes ago.""Interesting. What could they possibly want? Aiden mused. Perhaps it's for the same reason they joined his dinner with the Chairman; to curry favour."Thank you, Gilbert." Aiden tapped the servant's shoulder before walking up the stairs leading to the house. The house was as immaculate as ever. It always looked new like they just moved in. In the centre of the room rose a magnificent stairs leading to the upstairs space. It always gave him the medieval feel that they lived in the 90's.What to do first? Say hello to the Chairman or seek out Trisha? Well, it's best I get over my meeting with the Chairman so I

    SmashSmashSmashEach bottle exploded as Adam fired bullets in quick successions. He was doning a baseball cap, black sunglasses and dressed in a Tshirt and shorts. To anybody, he was a regular man. Nothing to unique about him perhaps except his striking eyes that were of different colours. His father always saw his heterochromia as a defect. That thought alone further angered him and he kept pumping bullets at an already shattered bottle."Chill, bro"Something had snapped in him this afternoon after their meeting with the Chairman. The funking bastard. He knew his uncle wasn't the problem but he blamed him too. He adored him amd did try to talk good about him in front of his father but he only made matters worse not when his father is always hell bent on talking him down. And he blamed Aiden too. Why did he have to be the perfect son. If only he didn't wake up from his coma. The bastard, coming to ruin the smooth going for him. Before Aiden woke, he was the golden boy, poised to ta

    Aiden grabbed his phone off the counter. He knew who would have sent a message and he was right. It was Stan, with news.I've tracked the number to Egypt, roughly the area where Hallander's DNA was last found. The man is very much alive, boss.We need to extract him now!Would I go to Egypt? I think that would be better."Sister I need to attend to something very urgent. I'll be back next week before the launch of our new project." He kissed her head and ruffled her hair amidst protests from Trisha."I love you. And I will always look out for you.""But-""Bye!"Aiden rushed out of the house while dialing Chen's mobile number."Boss.""Arrange a flight to Egypt for me at the next possible time. Also, I'll be needing backup or reinforcements. Hallander is alive. Eduard will brief you who he is. Also, get his son Charles on a plane to Egypt. That fucker knew his father wasn't dead and he didn't say a word.""Okay boss. The flight ticket will be sent to your mail sir."As he entered the

    Hallander was still on the floor gasping for breath mourning all the things he had missed when Charles was ushered into the room."Dad?" He called tentatively. He stole a glance at Aiden and Eduard who were watching him with hawk eyes. Halander raised his head and stretched forth his hand which Charles didn't hesitate to run to. "Oh dad! I thought I wouldn't see you ever again."All Hallander could do was weep into his son's shoulder muttering "I'm sorry" a million times.Aiden and Eduard left them where they were to have a discussion apart. "What do you think of all these? Now it seems we have a spy in our midst. How do we rectify this?"Inwardly, Aiden and his system were engaged in a toss of words.What the hell guy! A spy really? And I'm just getting to know? It's been 3 years, goddammit!Chill out. Where's the fun if I have to do all your dirty work? Besides you are not just carrying out quests, yiu are meant to grow through all the challenges.Oh give me a break! Anything could

    The flight back to Canada was uneventful. After discussing with Hallander and the others, they decided to split up with Hallander going to another African country because Aiden didn't want to leave things to chances. There was a high probability that other people will find him since they had found Hallander so easily. Charles agreed to go with his father, starting a new life someplace new.On the plane, Aiden contemplated telling Jeanne the full story but he decided against it. According to Eduard's honest opinion, it would be bad to keep something as serious as this away from her. He was so positive that she would understand the situation of things.We'll leave that to ponder upon. Right now, he just wanted to shut his eyes and take his much needed rest. In a couple of days, they will be launching their beta app in a few days and Aiden was looking forward to it. He knew that he had done something right with Revenmar Technologies and he had the system to thank for that. He was able to

    Harris Revenmar alighted from his vehicle as it stopped in front of an office building. The building consisted of 4 floors of rented office space."What a way to not attract attention to themselves." The Chairman said to himself. Before Aiden stopped by the house, he had started his own investigation on the whereabouts of the Chrysanthemums Operation. Because he didn't know what Aiden's reaction was going to be, he didn't tell him their location. First, he wanted to hear whatever reason they had for sending threats to his family. That was one thing he wasn't going to stand for. No one uses his family to get his attention. He was ready to go above and beyond when it came to his family. He had promised his wife that. That he would look after their children. He felt like a failure when Christian died, but now he felt like he could remedy that with Aiden and Trisha.'I hope you understand why I do what I do, my beloved.'He had found a contact number and had called them to tell him when h

    Harris waited for the door to shut before turning around. As much as he felt Liam's pain, he could not go soft on him. It would be to his own detriment. He still remember how he had picked him off the streets a little over a year ago. Liam was not originally poor. His millionaire patents had died in a car crash leaving him in the care of his uncle. His uncle had been behind the death of his parents and was now after his own life too so he fled. Not long after, he was proclaimed dead, killed by some 'unnamed illness'. With him out of the picture, his uncle and his family had taken over his father's business. He even sent some men to go after him to finish him completely. This was when Harris met him. He had been running from an attacker and Harris had dragged him into his own car. The attacker had sped past then Harris had stepped out to confront him. It had turned into a fist fight and in a blind rage, Harris punched his head in till the attackers head was nothing but a mangled mass

    Coming to, Harris's senses were assaulted with screams and yells, he could also smell wood burning. Disoriented, he tried to stand on his feet but was restrained. Looking down at himself, he was tied to one of the high chairs in the gang's meeting room.Bodies were littered around and blood splattered the walls. For the first time in a long while, fear gripped his heart. He couldn't make sense of what was going on. The screams continued down the hall while he struggled to get himself free from the ropes. The smell of burning wood kept getting stronger and he knew that it wouldn't be long before the whole building got razed to the ground. He struggled back and forth but neither the ropes nor the wood yielded."Somebody help! There's someone in here!" He didn't get a response though. Just feet running down the hall, screams and then silence.I cannot perish here. I will not die here!With renewed vigor, he struggled. The smoke was already getting to him and was filling his lungs.

    Then, the day they had been waiting for arrived. The head of the Black Lagoon syndicate was captured in Canada, drawn by the relentless attacks that had plagued his syndicate. As Aiden stood before him, his eyes ablaze with fury, he felt a cruel satisfaction in seeing the man who had taken his parents from him brought to justice.The room was dimly lit, the air thick with tension. The sound of rain tapping against the windows added an eerie rhythm to the atmosphere. Mishina Ren's eyes were cold and calculating, a stark contrast to the fire burning within Aiden's gaze.For years, Ren had eluded capture, always slipping through Aiden's fingers at the last moment. But tonight was different. Tonight, the odds were finally in Aiden's favor, and he was determined to make the most of it."Game over, Ren," Aiden's voice was laced with a lethal calmness.

    It was nightfall. The air was still, the surrounding eerily quiet. The usual night sounds were absent as though they had a premonition of what was to happen. Aiden walked in long strides towards a rundown motel. He had gotten intel that one of the remainjng Black lagoon comander was currently in there with a woman. He had evaded capture for sk long that he had began to drop his guard.He had been sighted in one of the clubs, bragging loudly about how he was as slippery as fish, difficult to catch.Soon after, his story had changed to how he had fought off his opponent's in their hundreds with just a baseball bat. With each change in story, he bought a drink and guzzler it down. He felt he had been lucky and all the commanders of the Black Lagoon was dead. To him, that meant that only he had access to the wealth of the Black Lagoon.

He attended meetings and travelled to visit dignitaries who shouwed prospects of becoming investors.By night, he wrecked terror upon mafia families. Being the considerate and kind man that he was, he spared the innocent wives and children. Before staging an attack, he had his men do a thorough research about the family they were to attack.The punishments metted out was dependent on the gravity of their offences. Aiden was the judge and executioner. He understood that no mafia family was good, not even his but there were crimes he couldbt tolerate like human trafficking, rape, drug trafficking and reckless murders. Hence the research before attacking.It got so remarkable that crime rates reduced not only in Canada but also in other parts of the world.

    Early the next morning, even before the birds started chirping, Aiden was up and ready for his travel. He waited in the dark for the telltale sound of his chopper.

He vowed to uncover everything and every mystery that shrouded his early years and his father's past.Aiden made his way to the top of his building, using the stairs discreetly placed in his walk-in closet.

    The air was heavy with unspoken words as Aiden sat across from his grandfather, a palpable tension hanging between them. The room felt smaller, suffocating, as he gathered his courage to voice the question that had lingered in his heart for years.This was a few days after his eventual discharge from the hospital. Liam's trial had been swift because they had his confession. Every member of the Chrysanthemums Operation had been apprehended, facing different term sentences in prison. Gossamer shut down as news traveled far, causing its investors to pull out swiftly.Liam had been put on death parole, Aiden ensuring that his death happened sooner than later.

    Aiden's eyelids fluttered, and the world gradually swam into focus. The sterile scent of the hospital room filled his nose, and the soft beep of machines provided a rhythmic background to his returning consciousness. The events leading up to his current state seemed distant and fragmented, like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle he was struggling to put together.As his vision cleared, he found his grandfather sitting by his bedside. A smile stretched Aiden's face. Movements caused his grandfather to look up from his book, his eyes filled with relief as he saw Aiden waking up. With a steady hand, he reached out and pressed the call bell above Aiden's bed."I'm so glad you are awake. Oh, I have been worried sick about you! The doctors said your chances of survival were slim, but I was certain that the boy I and your ma raised was stronger than that."Within moments, the door swung open, revealing a trio of medical personnel entering the room.

The Chairman was by the side, speaking to some of the board of directors present.Trisha watched Aiden with concern in her eyes, mouthing her words. she asked if he was fine, to which he nodded in the affirmative. He still looked clean, untouched, his outfit without creases. Their aunt, Getrude, waltzed towards the door, her girls in tow."It was a pleasant evening! Although I must say my brother didn't train that boy right. Should have put him to the whip to beat out that nonsense entitlement from him instead, what does he do? Encourage the brat."Her girls looked uncomfortable behind her as she droned on. Aiden tuned out her voice, only nodding when it seemed like she needed him to.Thankfully, Faith pulls her mom forward.
