The word "wife" deeply affected Calvin, reminding him of how much his father loved to praise his mother, who was Calvin's biological mother. He hesitated to kill Baruan, despite it being his intention. He didn't want the man to continue living with the deeds he had committed. Calvin checked his watch; two minutes and thirty seconds had passed, and the coin was still spinning. He followed the coin, bent down to pick it up, and then started to leave the place where he had been fighting Baruan, heading toward Tomaso and Luciana."Human life is very short, and if you understand that, then know that, in one way or another, you should not shorten someone else's life further and make their remaining time even shorter. After that comes revenge, which is a dangerous thing in anyone’s life who lives with deep pain in their heart. Every time they remember that pain, they become very bitter and want to retaliate against those who caused them that suffering. I understand the pain of losing loved
More than ten minutes passed with Calvin slumped on the sofa, not speaking. Neither Luciana nor Tomaso, who was suffering severe pain from a gunshot wound in his leg, said anything. Calvin lifted his face, still looking dejected, and asked Tomaso a question."Where is Veronica right now?" Tomaso did not answer. He went to the glass table in the living room, limping in pain, turned on the laptop, and entered a few numbers. The right side of the living room had a wall that split into two sections, revealing a beautifully decorated room where Veronica was staying. The room was so elegant that they wondered how someone could be kidnapped and then placed in such a nice space.Veronica was sitting on the bed. As she noticed the light growing brighter, she looked up and could hardly believe her eyes. In front of her was Calvin Jackson, the man she loved deeply. She jumped up from the bed, tears streaming down her face, and ran to hug Calvin with great force, crying. Calvin embraced her wit
The young man’s short narrative made Calvin cry and rise from where he was, going to embrace Tomaso, who had shown great bravery by sacrificing himself to ensure his sister’s safety from these people. There are very few siblings in this world with such a noble heart. Calvin couldn’t hate him after knowing the truth but saw him as a very brave young man who wasn’t willing to betray his blood relative. Everyone inside was in tears, even the dangerous Baruan, who shed many tears. In just one day and a short time, he learned two lessons from two different people: the first lesson was from Calvin's words, making him feel like a very bad person but left alive despite deserving death for his actions. The second lesson came from the young man Tomaso, who showed courage in helping his sister without regard for anything else. This is why he was willing to betray even Calvin. The concept of family and the weight of blood that Tomaso showed made Baruan feel like he was a very guilty person in h
“My fellow citizens, it is a great pleasure for me to be with you again today, and we give glory to GOD for granting us this special favour to live another day. Two days ago, I stood before you to discuss the case of a young man accused of premeditated murder and the rape and killing of women, known as Calvin Jackson. A thorough investigation has been conducted, and we have continued working without rest until this morning, confirming with one hundred per cent certainty that this person was completely uninvolved in these incidents (holding up a large picture of Calvin). It was a work-related mistake because he was in close proximity to where the rape and murder took place, so he had to be questioned and faced severe actions as a strong condemnation of these terrible crimes occurring in our country, especially gender-based violence. Fortunately, the perpetrators have been caught and have all been executed by beheading without being taken to court, serving as a stern warning and a sig
“Do you know the so-called Prime Minister of our country well, or are you just talking nonsense?” Calvin asked Juliana, glaring at her.“It doesn’t concern me; he is a good father and a very good leader. You and your fellow terrorists must die…” Juliana didn’t finish her sentence as Calvin slapped her hard. Even Baruan in the car closed his eyes from the intense impact. While Juliana cried, Calvin threw his phone at her.“There are two videos following each other; open them,” he ordered sternly. Juliana managed to open them, feeling like she was in a dream. One video showed her father forcing young children to have sex with him and then killing them with his own hands. The second video showed him with someone Juliana couldn’t recognize, discussing plans to kill a man named Jackson Aron to get his money for the upcoming elections, with her father expected to become the next president. The woman was overwhelmed and couldn’t believe what she was seeing. She had never imagined her fath
“Show us your ID before you can be allowed in,” a strong, authoritative voice commanded Victor to present his identification.He had nothing to help him gain entry. Quickly assessing the situation, he drew his pistol and struck one of the guards in the head. As he approached, he was met with a severe kick to the neck, which twisted the guard’s head. Victor holstered his gun and entered the casino unnoticed. Inside, the soft music filled his ears while naked women danced and showed off their bodies. The place was bustling with men playing games surrounded by many women and very expensive alcohol. The crowd was startled by the sound of gunfire, causing people to flee in panic to save their lives. The bullets were fired upward by Victor, who was very concerned about not harming any innocent civilians.Many of the civilians who had come for leisure ran away frantically inside, with some even forgetting the money they had left on the tables, while many women, in a bid to save their lives,
“Ensure that the girl remains safe at all costs,” These were the words Baruan heard as he was busy cutting the wires to allow Juliana to pass. If it were him alone, it would have taken much longer. As Calvin moved around the back of the large building, he encountered three commandos eagerly waiting for him, as if they had information about his arrival. They had little to say to him because they had been instructed to kill him wherever they found him. A knife came rushing towards him, and while the man leapt to avoid it, the others reached him. He showed no mercy, leaping high and grabbing the blade with great force, pulling it out swiftly. As he landed, one commando’s head was entirely severed from his body. With only two remaining, they approached angrily after witnessing one of their own decapitated. Their pace slowed when one's neck was grabbed and slashed badly as if cut by a saw. The remaining commando made a critical mistake when he was surprised by Calvin’s next move. Calvin
“Kill him,” the Prime Minister ordered. Baruan, who was wounded by a gunshot to his ribs, was to be executed. The four men, skilled in combat, turned swiftly, delivering two well-aimed kicks. Despite Baruan’s best efforts to dodge, the kicks hit him squarely. He staggered back, performed an impressive manoeuvre, and retaliated with two powerful kicks of his own, hitting the man in the chest. Despite his injury and missing a hand, Baruan fought fiercely. As he landed, he was struck with a heavy blow, and before he could hit the ground, two more kicks slammed into him, forcing him against the wall. His wound bled heavily, and he struggled to rise, only to have his leg broken by one of the men. The man prepared to break Baruan’s neck, but before he could do so, Calvin Jackson delivered a crushing blow to the man’s neck, causing him to bleed profusely.Calvin faced the Prime Minister with a steely gaze.“So, old man, you commit your deeds in the city and then hide here, flaunting these
