Levi Lloyd: Race To The Top 081: Take Things Slow
"Like how?" Levi stood, strapped her designer bag on his shoulder, stroked his hair and gave her a lopsided grin."Haha!" Brooklyn burst into laughter at how weird he looked, standing with her bag."Hey, it's not funny," Levi faked a frown and returned her bag.Brooklyn's laugh ceased but she bent to hide her smile as she undid her heels.As if remembering something, she looked up and asked him, "Levi, are you familiar with Mr Russell?"Levi's frown turned real as he tried to recollect the name. It felt like he had heard it before but he couldn't remember where so he shook his head."No. Why do you ask?""He was the host of the banquet I attended that other time. Larry was also present and I ended up drunk. Remember?""Oh, what about him?""You know, you never really told me what happened to Larry," Brooklyn stood. After removing her heels, she was inches shorter than Levi and had to look up at him."Why did he end up at the hospital battered? How did his friends end up at the city cen
Levi Lloyd: Race To The Top 082: Mission Gone Awry
"Welcome," The security guards at CJ Inc's entrance seemed friendly and welcoming. Hades was the only one that bothered to answer them with a carefree smile.Levi held up the tool box in his hand and adjusted his cap so it was covering his face.The security gave him weird gazes as they used a metal detector machine on all of them after checking their bodies manually. Levi was the last to get searched.A security guard felt the compartments of his uniform but found nothing then they used the metal detector on his body first before using it on the tool box he was carrying.Bee-hop!The security guard's eyes turned cold when the metal detector machine beeped continuously, detecting something in the tool box."What have you got there?"The group tried not to give themselves away as they were filled with anxiousness.Only Levi was calm and raised his head to meet the eyes of the security guard.The latter seemed taken aback by the rare color of his electrifying eyes."Just a bunch of tools
Levi Lloyd: Race To The Top 083: Close Call
Bang!Levi's eyes darted to the door when he heard the loud 'bang' sound again. Valkyrie looked a little bit anxious as she stared at the system.[80%... 85%....90%]As the files continued transferring, they could hear loud footsteps headed in that direction."Copied," Valkyrie announced just as some guards got to the door.Bang!They knocked and twisted the door knob but the door didn't give way. "What are you doing, you fools? Break in! Spare no one!" Levi could hear an angry yell just as some of the guards began to ram into the door.But the door was metallic and didn't easily budge so they had to call for backup to bring tools which would enable them to pry the door open."Oh no, we are trapped," Valkyrie murmured with a dark look as she removed the chip and destroyed the system she had copied the data from."What do we do now?" She was panicking.Levi looked around the room trying to think fast.Cling!The sound of metals clashing with metals caused them to cringe. The guards had
Levi Lloyd: Race To The Top 084: Are You Single?
"Then why are you refusing to come to the dining room? I even asked the maids to bring your meal to the room but you barely touched it," Yolanda stared at Luis through the mirror as she removed her costly earrings.Luis facepalmed and turned to her. "How do you still have the appetite to eat? Aren't you bothered by everything that is going on?"Luis walked to her with his hands folded behind him. "That land should have been mine. Even Hector's. Do you know how many people are vying for that land?""If I had gotten my hands on the property deed, we could easily get a billion-dollar deal for it."Yolanda's eyes glinted with greed. But it was gone within a second. She turned around and gave her husband a sly smile."Is that why you are so bothered?"Luis looked at her trying to comprehend her reaction. Why was she so carefree?"Honey, the only thing you have to do is to dissolve the marriage between that bastard and Brooklyn. Once that's over, the rest will be easy."As if afraid Luis mi
Levi Lloyd: Race To The Top 085: A Bet
[Do you spend more time here than there?]Levi sent a message once he had accepted Valkyrie's request and gone through her profile.She was actually a high ranked hacker, definitely not an amateur unlike her low rank in MercCentral. She was using a different code name, 'Black Rose'.[Yes. I only go there when I feel bored staring at my computer all day hacking through codes. Besides, high paying missions are quite rare for our rank. So I spend most of my time here]Levi nodded and his fingers moved to type a response when she sent another message.[Blackwing, are you short of money?]This question caused him to erase the words he had typed and construct another response.[Why?][I just have the feeling... You can definitely make it at the Merc but you should know it'll take some time]Levi's brows creased now. He didn't delay a minute in asking,[Then what do you suggest?][Here, on the Dark Web. As long as you've got very good skills which you definitely have, you can make as far as
Levi Lloyd: Race To The Top 086: A Milestone
"Don't say such things aloud," Brooklyn's voice came through the line like a whisper. Levi was amused and teased her even more."Isn't that allowed too? Besides, I'm only telling my wife how much I miss her," his tone lowered as he added, "I miss you so very much.""You... Don't you have anything better to do?" Brooklyn flushed.Levi glanced at the PC and thought of how far ahead Valkyrie might have gone."Do you have a vacant spot in your company? I don't mind any position as long as I get to see my wife anytime."Brooklyn facepalmed. There really was no end to his shamelessness. She cleared her throat and told him,"Mr Russell has invited us to dinner next Tuesday. Will you be available?""I'm all yours."Levi's husky tone made the colors creep back to her cheeks. She smiled helplessly without realizing it and feigned a warning tone."Will you ever act serious? I have to go now. Don't bombard my phone with pictures and messages again.""Wait," Levi called out just before she ended t
Levi Lloyd: Race To The Top 087: Meeting Hannah... Again
For the rest of the week, Levi handled the stock market investments, more contests and tasks on Dark Web, getting closer to Brooklyn and chatting with the few friends he made on the Merc.He had only just stepped away from the PC that evening after checking his stocks progress to grab a cup of water when his phone rang.Ring!Ring!Brooklyn was stepping out of the bathroom with her wet hair being fondled in a towel when she heard it."Levi?" She called out, walking to the phone.She picked it up and looked around. Noticing he wasn't in, she tried to check who the caller was when the call ended.Click!Levi came in just then with two cups in his hand. "Here, for you," He smiled cheekily at her."Thank you," She ignored the tingles his smile caused and stretched his phone to you. "You missed a call just now. I didn't see—"Ring!"And there it is," She shrugged as the phone rang away and walked to the closet.Levi drained the cup quickly and looked at the caller ID of the person. His brow
Levi Lloyd: Race To The Top 088: The Confrontation
"Levi, why don't you just—" Hannah's voice cracked in between her tears. Levi was unmoved by her tearful appearance.His shoulders were trembling as he pointed at her."Do you know how we have been all these years? Do we know how you got through? H—how we made it this far? Why did you show up now?""All these years I kept wondering... But now I know the answer," Levi lifted his reddened eyes at her."It was better you left. At least, father wouldn't have to deal with a toxic relationship. He couldn't handle it... He was never able to handle it and he's been dying because of that!""You had better hope he survives," He lifted his finger at the theater door which still had the red lights on to show the operation was still ongoing."If he doesn't, the little ounce of relationship between us will cease to exist."He turned around and left; walking away briskly like he wanted to escape so badly. His words hung heavily in the air.Hannah's tears dropped like it had no end. However, her makeu
