''Umm, well, I believe so.'' King khaled fumbled revealed a wry smile.Antonio shot him one more glance with a neutral expression before glancing at his phone that just vibrated in his pocket.Retrieving the device, he saw a notification and on reading it,his expression couldn't help but waver for a second before returning to its usual neutral face.However, king khaled also felt that something was wrong,maming his brows arch.''Is everything ok?'' he asked, furrowing his eyes.''Yeah, I need to go now.'' Antonio replied, rising to his feet as he headed towards the exit.''Ah… okay, in case you need anything you can always contact me.'' King khaled also rose to hia feet, accompanying Antonio and behind.Soon enough, Antonio stepped out, slamming his car door as he sped off.King khaled watched the disappearing figure of the car, amd he couldn't help but release a long sigh, his shoulders dropping as an imaginary mountain was lifted of his head.''He sure has the oppressive atmosphere
In a dimly room, filked with simole decorations, a black brown table stood at the centre lf the room, and six chairs surrounded the chair.Three figures in black suit sat on each chairs,their silhouette, mwrgingwith the surrounding shadow as they all exchanged glances.The wall, adjacent to the black iron door had a simple mural of a black gigantic statue, clad in a black suit, and from its waist down ward, everything was covered ingold cpins as though the giant drowned in them.On the left handof the giantwas a balance scale, and on his right was a spherical, blue ball.However, due to the dimly lit surroundings, th matte finish od the mural blended with the wall, almost unnoticeable to anyone who didn't pay attention.Apart from the mural, nothing deemed significance, except for the golden chair that each person sat on, yes… each chair had been sculpted from gold, as they reflect the daek glow in the room.And in the middle of the round table, was a diamond that bounced back light.
The large blades of a chopper sent gust of wind downwards, sending dust everywhere, as it landed on the open plains.After a few moment, Antonio stepped out of the helicopter in a pair of black sunglasses, and a matching black tuxedo.He looked across the plains, adjusting his shades before walking forward all alone.The dust in the atmosphere merged with little particles of snow, turning everywhere grey while reducing visibility to some degree.Seeing no one in hia vision, Antonio pulled out his phone, as he went through the map that Gaspar sent to him.'What a weirdo.' Antonio's narrowed his eyes, returning the phone to his pocket as he asvbces south in his four o'clock direction.After covering dozens of metres, a white cottage appeared in his view. Sparse shrubs frozen in snow surrouded the cottage, akongside the mahogany door.Halting in his tracks for a few minutes, Antonio shrugged before approaching the door, inserting a small card he got at the airport prior to his arrival he
Antonio rolled on the ground immediately the door sprang open, his handgun aimed at the door.His squinted eyes glowed in the dim surroundings as he awaited who the intruders were.''Who's there?'' A feminine voice echoed in the room as teo figures appeared at the entrance.Immediately after the entered, though, they also jumped to the left just as Antonio pulled the trigger.Right after that, the three silhouettes had risen to their feet, pointing thwir guns at each other.''Identify yourself!'' The lady at the from ordered, her gun aiming at Antonio's head with menace.Antonio's gaze landed on the lady, making him narrow his eyes, ignoring her order.He couldn't help but wonder who these two ladies were, and what they could be doing in this location. Most importantly he had yet to know whether they were the culprit behind Gaspar and the lawyer's death or not.'Two against one, each attacking from different angle.' Antonio's eyes moved from left to right, analyzing his situation befo
''No, I need more time, and you can just treat me like a puahover.' Diego fred back, his tone beaming wuth annoyance.''Oh really?'' The old man on the screen muttered, wearing an amuaed look.Diego sat in an office with a big projection before him, amd from the projection came the voice of the man.''Yes, you can jist get what you want simply because you want it when it doesn't belong to you in the first place.'' Diego retorted, taking his stance as he adjusted his sitting posture.His black suit elevated his look as he made himself comfortable on the white sofa in the office.However, inwardly, he didn't appear comfortable or alright in the tiniest bit. The person before him was a dangerous fellow who he didn't wantto gwt in his bad book. Yet, that didn't mean he would allow him to toy with him like a brainless doll.''After all the thinga I've done, even soiling my hands with forbidden blood, what else do you guys want?'' Diego squinted his eyes, his face flushing with fury.Being
A cool brreze that carried with it the smell of the tropics blew across the shore, grazing the inhabitants skin.The light that came from the stars cascaded the surroundings as the sea reflected their twinkling lights, creating a mesmerizing view.The people at the shore went about their nightly activities, and this included the tourists who only came here for sightseeing, alongside the sea traders who went up and down the various cargos at shorr.After a few hours had passed, the bustling shore had succumbed to silence, having no one present at the moment as midnight had passed and the people could just come back the next morning.Silent like a dead plains, the sea tide crashed on the ahore, occasionally breaking the silence.Amidst this endless serenity that enveloped the sea, a tiny, dark boat soon appeared from far inside the sea.As the boat approached the shore, it's shape and side became clearer and any onlooker present would have been able to discern that the thing wasn't even
Raymond and his men drove past the naval posts after rendering havock there, their destination known only to a few.''Have you jammed the network as planned,'' Raymond asked the man who sat beside him in the black limousine.The mask on the man's face clung to his skin, revealing his round facial contours. And with a nod, he answered Raymond.From the aura that the man exuded, along with his interaction with Raymond, one could decipher that he didn't belong to the White Horn Mafia group.'Hopefully, you're as good as that arrogant man bragged.' Raymond thought inwardly, remembering his earlier arrangements with the man that gave them the mission.About forty minutes after, they all parked at a deserted highway as everyone alighted, exchanging brief glances.Gazing through his binoculars, Andrei squinted his eyes, as an old apartment entered his view.Taking his gaze off the binoculars, his eyes met Raymond, who nodded in acknowledgement as they made a subtle communication.''Just a fe
''Careful.'' Raymond muttered, his eyes squinting in doubts.''Well… I guess it's safe.'' Jexter shrugged, ignoring Raymond's warning.Creak!Jexter tried to turn the knob on the safe, but it only turned in a 360⁰ without unlocking the mini door attached to the safe.''Phew, just as expected.'' Jexter murmured, his eyes not revealing any emotions under the black mask.Pulling out a flat device from his pocket, he pressed the button, seeing the device come to live as it shone a red light from the base.Positioning the red light to the door knobof the safe, Jexter waited for the device to finish scanning the encryption on the knob, before sending it to his boss, the man in SBI.Beep! Beep!The device kept beeping as it continued reading the encrypted codes, sending it back as electronic signals to the IT experts under the nose of the operation overseer.As they stood in silence, the upper floor rumbled, drifting thwir attention upward, but everything soon became quiet.''Time is agains
