Rebecca sighed as she sat on the roadside. She chuckled when she thought of how miserable her life was. How dare Oliver send her out? Rebecca felt a wave of anger come upon her and she was not going to let Oliver defeat her. She picked up a phone and dialed a number. The number rang, and someone picked up the call."Yes?" She heard Viktor Grey's voice say from the other side. "I'm stranded. I need a place to stay." She said to Viktor who did not say a thing. Rebecca counted her breath through the silence before she scoffed."Won't you even say anything?" She asked Viktor Grey."I am not in the mood to entertain a visitor tonight. You can find somewhere else to stay. I'll speak with you in the morning." Viktor added."A visitor? I am your daughter. I am your own flesh and blood. How can you call me a visitor?" Rebecca's voice was starting to break. What was happening? She felt the world collapsing on her."So you claim. I am yet to verify your facts my own way." Viktor told her."Wow.
The collector dashed into Viktor Grey's office despite the guard's effort to keep him out. He breathed hard and fast as Viktor observed him, arms crossed across his chest."Yes? What are you doing here Barnabas?" Viktor asked the collector but the man stood transfixed. He whispered something that Viktor could not make out before he suddenly lunged at Viktor's table."The necklace. I need the necklace. Give it to me!" The collector yelled but Viktor Grey remained perfectly still. He just kept looking at the collector."What do you mean? We already have an agreement and I have paid for the necklace. I cannot give it to you. You should leave." Viktor said but the collector was not ready to relent. He scratched his head eagerly before he started pacing around the room."He came to me. Oliver Lionheart. That bastard. He came to me and he took all of my money. I cannot live like this. I want to give him the necklace and perhaps he will forgive me if I do. So, please, give it to me." The col
Viktor Grey rushed out of the office as he tried to beat time. He had a very important meeting that could not afford to delay any longer. He quickly stepped out and headed straight for his car, but before he could get inside, he saw three SUVs approaching them in High speed.Viktor Grey frowned. Who the hell would be so stupid to try and get that much of attention? He just kept looking at the SUV while they parked in front of Grey Pharmaceuticals, and as soon as Oliver stepped down from one of them, Viktor frowned."Either you're a fool, or you're just disrespectful. Which is it?" Viktor asked Oliver as Oliver stepped closer to him, a word not escaping his mouth in reply at first. He took a good look at Viktor's men and chuckled."I wonder how it is that you have so much wealth, and yet manage to employ the worst people. These guys cannot protect you if things go wrong. So, you'd better be careful about how you speak to me." Oliver stated and Viktor shook."How dare you speak to me i
The door opened slowly and Rebecca walked in. Viktor Grey was still panting, and when Rebecca saw the dead bodyguard on the ground, she covered her mouth to stop herself from retching. The room oozed of blood and death. How was Viktor still standing there, she wondered."What happened here?" She asked as she settled herself. Viktor Grey turned around, saw her and frowned."Where the hell have you been? Why did you not send in some sort of report or get over here as soon as possible?" He asked her and eh scoffed."I did not realize that I was under your employment. I have the freedom to do whatever I chose to do and you cannot dictate that for me. I am not some worker of yours." She shot back. Viktor Grey slowly touched his gun and her eyes caught it. She smiled as she looked at him."Really gonna shoot me, huh? Well, do it. You have no regard for morals, you said that yourself. Kill me and you will never get to hear what I have to say." She stated, and Viktor arched a brow."What do y
"Boss, she's here." Marv said to Oliver as he sat down in his office. He looked up and gazed at Marv for a moment, and thought about his option for a moment. Then he sighed and nodded."Send her in." He said to Marv who nodded and walked away. Olives gazed at the door as he heard voices from behind the door. He watched carefully, until the door opened and a tall, young woman walked into the room. She wore a beautiful black dress that exposed most of her thighs, and breasts, and she was bald. She smiled when she saw Oliver."Mr Lionheart. It is a please to finally meet you in person.", She said to Oliver and approached. Oliver smiled."Minerva. You look even more stunning in real life." Oliver commented and she blushed. "Don't flatter me, Mr Lionheart. We both know who it is that owns the streets these days. How you find me?" She asked Oliver and shook hands with him. Then she slowly sat down, looked around the office and focused her gaze on Oliver again."I did my research. I had to
"An assassination bank? What do you mean?" Mia asked the editor and he smiled. She was obviously not in the mood to entertain whatever silly ideas that he was about to share "I used to love that face. I can't even remember how many nights I'd wake up just to see you working on a case. You would be so focused that you would not even see that I am awake. Those were great times, mia." The editor said to her and she sighed."But they did not last." She stated "They did not last because you did not allow it. I was willing for us to build a life together. I did everything I could for you. I guided you through the early days of your career. What more do you want?" He asked her and frowned. "This happened a very long time ago. It's way behind us now and if you want to be stuck in the past, then the pleasure is all yours. But do not drag me into your mess. I will not take it." She stated."Mess? Mia you broke up with me. You ruined my career by that heartbreak. I was fired because I could n
"What do you want to talk about?" Oliver asked sharply over the phone. He sighed and wiped his brow immediately. The air around him had changed and he played with the phone before he listened again."Sorry. I have been so stressed lately." He told her."I can see that. So stressed that you had to shut even your own girlfriend out?" Vera asked Oliver who arched a brow over the phone."You saw Mia?" "Yes, I did. And brother, she is not happy. You went MIA on her and now she is devasted. You should call her soon to put her mind at ease." Vera advised."I pushed her away because right now, Everything is a mess. I do not want her getting entangled in them. The world is a messy place, Vera. We both know that. Isn't it best to protect our loved ones from such a mess if we have the power?" Oliver asked."It is, but at the same time, also consider the fact that they might not want to be apart from you even when things are though. They might want to b around you. Do not push them away." She to
"Should we crush her here and now?" Gerald asked Rebecca as they trailed Mia on the streets. The lights flickered everywhere while they drove, and Rebecca could not deny that the cool evening breeze was making her less stressed."We should not waste time following trash like her. We have to stay on course. We have a job to do." Rebecca said to Gerald who frowned in confusion."What are you saying?" He asked her."I'm saying that you should turn around. It's time for us to go back." She added. "But why go back when we can destroy her here? Didn't you say that she was some sort of barrier to the plan?" He asked her and she frowned."Yes, but right now, she has no use to us dead. We will deal with her later. But for now, we have to watch Oliver's moves and make sure that he does not do anything funny. He has already sent the invitations to us. There has to be a reason." Rebecca said and Gerald nodded."He could have easily ignored us. I suspect that he has an ulterior motive. If he didn
