Gavin arrived at Morano City Bank, his face masked in an unusual smile. Standing in front of the bank, he couldn't help but recall the memories from his last experience with the manager and the security guards.

He knew what he was about to do might go against the promise to his father never to reveal who he truly was no matter what the situation might be. But after the series of humiliation he had been made to go through both from the Stallions and others alike, he felt it was enough.

Taking a deep breath, he moved towards the entrance of the bank and was stopped by the security guards again just as he had expected.

"Sir, you're not allowed to go in," one of the security guards said rudely as he stood in front of Gavin.

"Excuse me, but I have to go in," Gavin replied.

"Didn't you hear what he just told you? We've received orders from the manager not to allow you in," the other security guard said, his gaze piercing through Gavin with utter disdain.

They just couldn't stand the sight

Ignoring the formality, he embraced Gavin warmly, surprising the security guards."Welcome sir, it's so nice to see you again," Thomas said, his voice filled with genuine warmth."Thank you, Thomas. It's good to see you too," Gavin replied, returning the sentiment.Thomas then turned to the security guards. "What are you still doing here? You may leave now," he said, dismissing them.The guards exchanged a bewildered glance wondering why the president of Morano City Bank would address someone as tattered and unkept as Garvin with the word 'sir'.Without saying a word, they quickly exited the office, leaving Gavin and Thomas to their reunion.Turning to Gavin, "I was really surprised when I saw your call yesterday. Hope everything is fine?" Thomas

    Thomas couldn't hide his worries as Gavin was about leaving the office. Even if he had agreed to Gavin's request and had granted him all that he had asked for, he knew it was against the promise which Gavin had made to his father."But sir, Isn't this going to raise questions from your wife?” Thomas inquired, his concern evident in his words.Gavin dismissed his worries, gesturing for him to allow him handle things his own way, "You don't have to worry, Thomas. I've got everything under control.""If you say so sir, I just want you to be careful," Thomas said, his words touching Gavin's heart.Gavin smiled seeing how much Thomas genuinely cared about him, returning his kind gesture with gratitude, "I'll be fine, Thomas.

    Standing outside his mansion and swelling with pride at having finally gotten his home back, Gavin hailed a cab to take him to the Stallions. He was ready to face them and make it clear that he was far from wretched."Where are you alighting, sir?" the cab driver asked politely."Riverview Estate," Gavin replied, still basking in the moment.After a few minutes' drive, the cab driver spoke again. "We're here, sir," he said, stepping on the brakes right in front of the estate.Gavin stepped out of the car, a broad smile on his face. He almost forgot that he hadn't paid the cab driver yet."Sir, you haven't paid me," the cab driver reminded him gently."Oh, right. My apologies," Gavin said, quickly reaching into his pocket and handing over the fare. He nodded in thanks before turning to face the imposing entrance of Riverview Estate, ready to confront the Stallions with newfound confidence."Thank you, sir," the cab driver said as he drove off.Inside the estate, Katherine and Sophie we

    Upon entering the house, Meghan was greeted by yet another surprise. The empty food shelves were all completely stocked up enough to have them go for months and lacking nothing essential as far as family's food shelf is concerned.Unable to hide her concerns any longer, she asks Gavin how he was able to raise the money to get the mansion back and to have their kitchen stocked with so much foodstuffs. "What exactly did you do, Gavin? Where did you get the money from?" Meghan asked, her tone demanding an explanation.Gavin smiled, seeing the concern etched on her face. "Don't worry, Meghan. Even if I told you, you still wouldn't believe me," he shrugged.He recalled how she had reacted earlier when he had jokingly told her he was the owner of Morano City Bank. She had dismissed the idea as absurd, not even considering it a possibility. That reaction had made him decide to keep the full story to himself, at least for now."Come on, Gavin. I'm your wife and I have the right to know what

    Gavin arrived at work still angry because of the heated argument between him and Meghan. He just wished Meghan would try to understand him and all the efforts he was putting in just to make her see for herself just how much he loves her.“Hey Gavin!” A colleague called out to him. “Why weren't you at work yesterday? The boss came looking for you,” the colleague said.Gavin could tell he was in some sort of trouble. Brax Connelly wasn't a man to joke with and the fact that he had stayed away from work without due permission was enough reason to be worried.“Gavin! What happened to you? You didn't come around yesterday and you didn't even deem it fit to notify the boss. He's angry,” Another colleague said, expressing just how much the boss had been angry that Gavin didn't show up for work the previous day.A couple of deliveries were not made and it has really gotten the boss angry.“Oh! It wasn't intentional. I had some important stuffs to attend to. I'll explain to the boss,” Gavin r

Her unique approach to ensuring tasks were completed efficiently had always made her an integral part of the team. Unlike her sister Sophie, Meghan was known for her collaborative leadership style, never merely issuing orders but always working alongside her colleagues."Hope you're doing well, ma'am? We've really missed you," the colleagues expressed, conveying their genuine sentiment towards Meghan.Meghan's smile widened as her colleagues continued to shower her with kind words.Upon settling into her office, Meghan's phone rang, displaying her mother's name on the screen."I need you in my office immediately," Katherin

    Gavin had just finished the last delivery for the day. Not wanting to offend Mr Brax anymore, he made sure he carried out every delivery promptly and even took in two extra deliveries for the day just to be on his good side.“Well done, Gavin, you did a nice job today,” the senior manager at the company said as Gavin made way to the cloak room to change back into the clothes he had worn to work that morning.“Thank you, sir.” Gavin replied, smiling at the supervisor's satisfactory remark on his job.Just as he was about signing out for the day, his phone rang and it was Meghan calling, crying on the phone as she spoke.“What's wrong?” Gavin inquired, as it was very unusual for Meghan to cry except it was something very serious but Meghan didn't say a word before the call ended abruptly.Gavin tried reaching her immediately but her phone wasn't going through any longer prompting him to sign out in a hurry, hail the first cab that came his way and hurried home straight away.Gavin arriv

Ever since the embarrassment brought upon him by Gavin in the night at the restaurant, he had carried a a little anger around him. One that was quite visible in the way he got in the office. He did not even smile when he was greeted by the two women. His friend, Harry tried his best to infact cover up his blemishes and not tried to make him seem to imposing."Harry!" Sophie let out a high pitched scream once she set her eyes on one of the people on the door, knocking. It was Harry, her fiance, and his best friend, James, who had taken a liken on her sister. She went ahead to hug Harry while James came inside the office and greeted Katherine."To what do I owe this pleasant surprise?" Katherine asked in a delightful manner. "Come, gra

Gavin's guard was keeping an eye on her, and he was concerned that something bad had happened to her as a result of the amount of blood she had lost.The medical team arrived and redressed her wounds, telling the guard not to let her carry anything until her body healed. The doctor became enraged and yelled, "Who told her she could get herself dressed up? She is just too stubborn and never listens, I told her she was free to go, not free to do more work."The doctor was furious with her as he was redressing her open wounds; he told the guard that he was fortunate to have discovered her at the time he did; otherwise, she would have died because the wound that opened was directed at her vein, which carried blood, and further delays would have caused her to bleed out even more.The guard was relieved that he managed to save Meghan. If not, Gavin would have killed him as well bec

    When the call from the fixer ended, the chairman became concerned and began to blame himself for extending the call. He also blamed the staff who had given him the idea and threatened him that if anything happened to Harry, he would be the second dead body buried.The entire station was in chaos as they attempted to reconnect the call back to the fixer, but it was not going through, and the more the phone rang and no one answered, the more concerned they became for Harry's safety.The chairman immediately summoned Agentb6 to begin searching the area for clues, figuring that even though it was a dead end, it was still a path to finding the location of vengeance, and the chip they had asked their mole to insert into the system had also downloaded some files indicating Meghan's presence at Vengeance.Agent 6 returned to the chairman to confirm that the path did indeed have an extra 8 path at a junction; it was also a pattern, as four of the routes were dead ends, while the other five had

As soon as the delegates entered the room where they were waiting, the marking team informed them that they were clearly taken aback to see them enter rather than Gavin."Another test?" "I was expecting a reward, but I was not hearing about another test that was still coming," one of the delegated marking team members said, expressing surprise that there was still another test for them to complete.Another delegate also blurted out to the marking team, "I thought this was the last one," because he believed that the test was finished because it was so bloody and he was not prepared to shed any more blood because the ones he had shed

    Meghan's decision to stay surprised the fixer because he had hoped she would change her mind because the underground network's headquarters was a dangerous place to serve, and it was because she was a worthless asset that he sent her there so that her death would not affect the company's efficiency.The fixer could not explain why he was not fully allowing her to stay, but since she chose that path, he told her he would support her. Then he asked her why Gavin gave her an emerald pendant, which surprised Meghan because she had not told anyone about it except the commander who saw it, but the news had spread quickly and now the fixer was aware of it."What exactly did he tell you the pendant was for?" The fixer inquired of Meghan to see if she remembered who Gavin was and what their relationship meant to them."No, he said it was a reward for saving his life; should I return it and hope I do not get into trouble for accepting it?" Meghan inquired with the fixer because she had been hea

They wondered if the person would be able to grab the last chest without being stopped by another delegate.When he landed, the marking team was all fascinated by how he was able to get the seemingly impossible box, and the fact that he landed without injury piqued their interest even more, but they, like everyone else, wanted to know if he was going to get the chest before the other delegates did.It was game on! The delegate with the box ran towards the chest, and one of the delegate who was good at archery took her bow and three arrows, aimed at him, and released the arrow at him; the arrow hit his leg and he fell down, but he continued to
