Mello smiled. ''I will be done soon, I'm almost done,'' Mello said and opened like five files at once. He grabbed another file and opened it as well.Kelan could tell he was scared. He may look fearless on the outside, but he doesn't need to be told he's scared of disappointing Ana and his father. It's sad, but that is just the burden of this new life he found himself in.'I'll take my leave now,' Kelan said while Mello nodded without taking his eyes off the files.Mello dropped the files and sighed as Kelan exited the room. He was getting exhausted as he wasn't used to reading a lot, but he was ready to give Sir Ren an opportunity.He grabbed another file to read when his phone rang. He straightened and picked up the call.''Hey, baby girl,'' Mello smiled, and Ana's sweet chuckle aired over the phone."Are you home now? And do you feel a bit better?" he asked."Yes, I just took my drugs and I am better now. I'll be visiting the hospital tomorrow," her sweet voice came again.Mello la

Mello who was confused, looked into the system and his face twitched into that of surprise and shock as he read the screen." Dad..." Mello tried to say but was cut short." How is this possible? The hospital has finally been locked down by government due to numerous complaints and all the sick patients are stranded and our workers displaced. God, our powerful patients might sue us for this, it's all Sir Ren's doing," Ana exclaimed as Mello stared intently at the screen.Mello slowly paused, taking a moment to process what was happening.His fear was slowly becoming a reality." Dad, I'm sorry... I lost focus and made a mistake" Ana's voice quivered as she spoke, her gaze fixed on the ground.Mello instinctively placed a comforting hand on her shoulders, easing her discomfort before directing his attention back to his father. " But Dad, I'm working on something, something that'll hit him so hard he'll regret ever findling with Ashley Group," Mello interjected, wanting to take the bur

"what?!" Mello's voice cracked with disbelief when the news finally sank in, his heart thumping with fear.He could believe he was scared of losing the man he felt nothing towards some hours ago.He slowly returned the phone back to his ears." He's currently undergoing treatment and his life currently hang in the balance" the voice came again." Is he going to be fine?" Mello stood up from his seat, his thoughts racing faster than his pounding heart."I hope . Even Box has been shot too and is currently in a critical condition!" The word hit Mello like a punch to the gut."what?!" Mello almost shouted unconsciously, his mind struggling to comprehend the sudden turn of events." The spy, Evan is dead as well" " How? " This time, the words came out more of a whisper." And you also need to see Ana right now, I was informed she fainted just now, I'll meet you there," At this point, Mello was already at a loss of words.His expression shifted from that of surprise to pain."How?

" But isn't it wrong that someone as lowly as him be allowed into this discussion?" Sir Gusta said, out of annoyance." I permit it so you don't have to worry, " Mello said and waved for Kelvin to continue.Sir Chen also joined and stood." Mello, this is unacceptable, it's..."Sir Chen was about to say, but Mello cut him off." Kelan, it seems I'm willing to exercise my right on this two here, I hate it when people don't listen.

She smiled." We'll leave early tomorrow but she's stable for now," she replied him and he relaxed a bit." So what did you want to tell me?"Mello's eyes shifted to her's.She smiled." Well, you never asked what my name was? You can call me Mary if you like," She said, moving over and taking a seat beside Mello." Ohh, I'm sorry, I had a rough time recently. Forgive me for not asking." Mello apologized, looking at her face and she smiled.She slowly took her hand to his hair and slowly caressed it.Mello was confused.He didn't understand what she was doing." I'm okay, you don't need to worry" Mello assured her but she just smiled.She moved her hands down and gently touched his face." Mary..." Mello called quietly as she stared deeply into his eyes, she then moved her eyes to his nose and lastly, his lips.She stared at them for a while." Mary, stop whatever you are doing" Mello said, unable to push her away." Sheeshhhh.." she said placing her finger on her lips seductively.She

The shareholders kept ranting, and when Mello couldn't hold it anymore.He stopped and pressed his phone for a while.They all stopped to see what will happen.Not long, about twenty guards marched in and pushed them out of the way for Mello to walk through.Despite their influence and power, none of them dared oppose or say anything, they knew Mello's influence was on another caliber, it was just that he didn't know how to utilize it yet.Mello got past them with Kelan behind him and walked to the main office.Esther and Kelvin followed.They all got in and Kelvin pressed a button on the wall.On the side of the wall, the wall shifted to reveal another door.They all walked in, and it closed behind them.Mello walked down to see hundreds of computers.There was also floating computers which some members of team were operated on with their fingers.The technology there felt out of the world.All the team members were busy operating on their system when Mello walked down, and they all

Just then, the warehouse doors swung open with a bang, and Mello rushed in, his steps quick and full of purpose. His eyes locked onto Sir Ren's, unflinching."Malcolm, what is so important?" Mello said, his voice dripping with sarcasm. His sudden appearance left Sir Ren stunned, unable to mask his shock. How did Mello manage to bypass his guards so easily?"What... what are you doing here?" Sir Ren snarled, anger twisting his features as he tried to regain his composure.Mello simply smiled, that infuriating calm spreading across his face, as if he knew something Sir Ren didn't. That smile was enough to make Sir Ren hiss with frustration, realizing he was surrounded by evidence that could incriminate him.Panic flickered across Sir Ren's face, his eyes darting to the drugs and documents scattered around. "Shit! Everybody clear out! Move! Gun him down, now!" Sir Ren screamed, his voice cracking with desperation as he reached for his men.But before he could finish his order, the room s

As Mello drove away, the lights from his father's mansion grew smaller in the rearview mirror until they disappeared entirely. His jaw was clenched tight, muscles tense, as his mind raced with the weight of everything he’d just faced. The meeting had been more painful than he’d imagined, more personal than he had wanted it to be. But there was no room for regret now.He took a deep breath, his fingers drumming impatiently against the steering wheel. This was the last step of the plan, the final confrontation that would bring everything together. Yet, in the back of his mind, a whisper of doubt gnawed at him—would his father really let him go through with this? Or was there another twist waiting in the shadows?As he drove through the dimly lit streets, his phone buzzed on the passenger seat. He hesitated, glancing at the screen. It was a message from Zach.**"All set on my end. Sir Ren’s warehouse is under close watch. Your move now. Make it count."**Mello’s eyes narrowed, the resolv

Mello smiled politely as he rose from the plush leather chair. “Thank you, President,” he said, his tone measured, careful not to let the adrenaline that still pulsed through his veins leak into his voice.He turned to leave, but before he could take more than a step, Sir Asher’s voice stopped him. “It’s late, Mello. Why don’t you stay here tonight? Get some rest.”Mello paused, his back to the man, and allowed a moment of consideration to pass. The offer was laced with something more—an unspoken test. Was this an olive branch, or was it bait? Either way, he couldn’t stay.He smiled, glancing over his shoulder. “I’m a man of time, and unfortunately, I don’t have much to spare at the moment. I appreciate the offer, though.”Sir Asher studied him for a second, then gave a curt nod. “Very well,” he replied, his face expressionless, though the calculating gleam in his eyes hadn’t faded.Mello turned and headed for the door, walking with an air of calm composure, though every nerve in his

As Mello left Sir Nerio’s residence, he couldn't shake the feeling of betrayal hanging over him like a storm cloud. His father’s silence over the years suddenly made sense, and he felt a mix of anger and disappointment rising in his chest. But he pushed those emotions aside; he had a mission to complete.The ride to Sir Asher’s estate was long, giving Mello time to strategize. He needed to gather more evidence, and he couldn’t let his father’s involvement cloud his judgment. When he finally arrived, the sight before him was nothing short of overwhelming.The estate loomed like a fortress, sprawling over vast acres with manicured lawns, fountains, and elaborate sculptures. It looked more like a city than a home. Mello stepped out of his car, taking a moment to adjust his suit, ensuring he looked every bit the part of a powerful player in this high-stakes game.As he approached the entrance, two guards stood at attention, their eyes scanning him with a mix of suspicion and curiosity. He

Mello settled into the plush booth, his heart pounding as he faced Sir Nerio. The Prime Minister looked polished and composed, as expected, but Mello knew beneath that facade lay a man tangled in a web of corruption. “Let’s skip the pleasantries,” Mello began, his tone firm and unwavering. “I’m not here to exchange small talk. I know about your dealings with Sir Ren.”Sir Nerio feigned confusion, raising an eyebrow. “What dealings? I’m not sure what you’re talking about, Mello. You must be mistaken.”Mello couldn’t help but smirk at the Prime Minister’s naivety. “Mistaken? Really? I have video evidence of you in a room full of drugs, discussing shipments with Sir Ren.” He pulled out his phone, swiping through the screens until he found the video. He pressed play, and the room filled with the sound of laughter echoing from the screen.The footage showed Sir Ren and Sir Nerio, surrounded by piles of drugs, their faces illuminated by the dim lights of the room. The two men leaned in clo

Mello felt a surge of realization wash over him. No wonder his father had never interfered with Sir Ren's dealings all these years. The weight of his father’s choices settled heavily in his gut. Even though Mr. Buster had the power to quench Sir Ren's operations, he never did. The truth was painfully clear: Sir Ren had something on him, some past dealings and evidence that kept him silent.Mello clenched his jaw, anger bubbling beneath the surface. His father, a man he had respected, was ensnared in a web of deceit, trapped by his own mistakes. It was infuriating to think that the very person who should have been a protector had chosen to align with a monster out of fear.The room was still, the atmosphere thick with tension. Mello looked at his team, their faces a mix of concern and determination. He couldn’t let this betrayal distract him. He had a mission to accomplish.“Alright, let’s focus,” he said, forcing his voice to remain steady. “So, any update on Sir Vane?” Mello asked,

As the evening shadows stretched across the sky, Mello felt a surge of impatience. He couldn’t wait any longer. Something inside him gnawed at his sense of urgency.He turned to Lisa, who was resting beside him. “I’ve got to go,” he said softly, brushing a kiss against her forehead. Before she could protest or ask him to stay, Mello was already on his feet, leaving her with just a glance.In the living room, he pulled out his phone and dialed Kelan. His voice was steady, but there was a quiet intensity beneath it. “Kelan, gather the team. We’re meeting at the hideout. It’s time.”There was a brief pause on the other end before Kelan answered, “We’ll be ready.”Mello ended the call, his mind racing. Tonight would set everything in motion.Mello slipped into his car, the engine purring to life as he pulled out of the driveway. The city lights flickered in the distance, but his mind was elsewhere, focused on the task ahead. The weight of the evidence he’d seen gnawed at him—the video of

Mello lay in bed, his thoughts racing. The room was quiet now; Kelan and Lisa had gone to the doctor to finalize his discharge. He rubbed his temples, trying to make sense of everything. The previous night still haunted him, but it also fueled his determination.Suddenly, the phone beside him rang. It wasn’t his. He glanced at the unknown number flashing on the screen, instinct telling him to answer. Hesitating for a moment, he placed the call on speaker."Hope it didn’t hurt much," a familiar voice chuckled through the speaker. It was Zach, his tone mocking yet amused.Mello couldn’t help but laugh. "You’re crazy, but I’ve got to hand it to you, it was a brilliant plan."Zach’s laughter followed. "That means you owe me, you know, for boosting your fame and making you the talk of the town overnight."Mello smiled, recalling how close he came to losing everything. "When I nearly died last night? Yeah, thanks for that.""It was just a light knockout. You’re still here, right?" Zach’s gr

the next morning When Mello opened his eyes, he found himself in a room full of people, all watching him with worried expressions. Their whispers filled the air. "He's awake," someone said softly.Disoriented, Mello rubbed his eyes and saw Kelan and Lisa standing nearby, their faces pale with fear. He slowly sat up in bed, feeling a dull ache in his head. "What's going on?" he asked, his voice groggy.Kelan motioned for the others to leave, and soon it was just the three of them in the room. Lisa, sitting by his side, took his hand and spoke " thank God" Mello stared at her, trying to process what had happened. Mello blinked slowly, trying to piece together what had happened. His body felt heavy, his mind foggy. He looked down at Lisa, who was resting her head on his legs, her silent tears soaking into the blanket. The weight of her words sank in, but they felt distant, like an echo from a dream."Attacked?" he muttered, still rubbing his temple. His eyes flickered over to Kelan
