Alessio put on his poker face. He had heard that David’s former right-hand man was coming today. Until now, Alessio still didn’t understand why his father still let this man work for him. Even though Alessio was sure that his father hated David. His father should hate anything and anyone who’s ever had a close relationship with that man, right? His father should have thought that in all likelihood, David’s right-hand man had committed the murder of his older sister and nephews. But this is not. This sounded very strange and would not make sense to Alessio. He didn’t even know what had happened between his father and Bruno. It was completely out of his control. His mother couldn’t even get his father to tell her stories. Even though all this time, his mother had always used his father’s love for her to get what she wanted.“You’ve been off for more than a month. What are you doing? It’s ridiculous if you’re only on vacation. I know you well enough, Bruno. Doesn’t it sound very strange
“Are you ready to see your new face, sir?” asked the doctor. Today, David’s wait is finally over. The bandage covering his entire face was about to be removed, and he could see his new face.David took a deep breath and nodded his head. “More than ready, doctor,” he said.The doctor smiled. He carefully removed the bandages that covered David’s face with great care. A smile etched on his face.“Perfect,” he said.The nurse brought a mirror, and she pointed it at David’s face. “You can open your eyes now, sir. Your face. It’s amazing. Just like the face you want,” he said in a very satisfied tone.David opened his eyes slowly. And was very surprised to see his reflection in the mirror. A smile, oh no! More precisely, a smirk was etched on his new, too handsome face. “This is perfect. They won’t recognize me anymore. Thank you, doctor. You really did a great job. Now I can start what I should do. Ah, I really can’t wait.”***David took a deep breath. After a very long flight, he finall
Today is the day. David will return to the mansion. With a plan that Bruno and himself had carefully made.David’s heart was beating very fast when he arrived in front of his father-in-law’s magnificent mansion. There are not many changes. Still the same as before. He entered the ordinary car he was driving. Under the pretext of Bruno needing some new subordinates because some of the old subordinates had already resigned. It was just a plan because actually, there were some that Bruno had assigned to take care of Lily and his mother-in-law.Some people who have provided information about themselves online came to the location. It’s not just David. There were several others will arrive at the appointed hour.David got out of his regular car. A used car that he used to further convince his disguise as an ordinary person.“Feels like deja vu when I came here. Finally, I have the power to come back.” David got out of the car. Apart from the people under Bruno’s leadership, no one knew tha
“Are you new here, young man?” Carina asked in her soft voice. Her face was so friendly looking at David.‘He’s very handsome,’ she said to herself. Since she came out of the house and stood up to escort her two sons away. Her gaze unintentionally stared at this young man. A little surprised to see a man this handsome here. Curious, Carina came closer.David bowed respectfully, then looked back at Carina. “Yes, madam. I came to do a test to fulfill the job as a bodyguard,” replied David.Carina tilted her face. “Ah, a test?” she repeated.“Who’s recruiting you?”David was about to answer before Bruno finally came over. He also bent his body. “It’s me, madam,” replied Bruno.Carina looked at Bruno. She frowned. “You? Haven’t there been enough people under your leadership?” Carina asked. For some reason, she felt a little displeased.“Some have resigned. And now I am short of people, madam. I have asked Mr. Baldovino’s permission on this matter and he has agreed,” he replied. Deliberate
Bruno was in front of the candidates who would be his subordinates. All of them in front of him were, of course, great people he had selected over the internet with the amazing abilities they had mentioned. And Bruno chose only the best of the best. There were ten people before him and all he needed was half of them.“Because this is a big responsibility. Then I will be the one to monitor and assess you guys’ abilities. You certainly know the consequences of being a bodyguard, don’t you? And I have already told you that being under my leadership can be very dangerous. Every day, there will always be surprises from every task I give to you later. Maybe it can endanger your lives. That I have mentioned before and you have agreed that it is a consequence that you can accept with grace. But I know that maybe you change your mind. So before it’s too late. You may think again. Those who cannot bear the burden may leave this place.” But no one left.Sreett...Their focus was interrupted beca
“Javer, you’d better come home with me.” David was a little surprised when Carina came closer to him.“Pardon, madam?” David turned around. He was still shirtless, and that couldn’t help attracting Carina’s attention to keep staring at him. David gently waved his hand in front of Carina’s face.“Madam? Are you all right?” he asked. He gave a sweet smile that made Carina even more awkward.“A-ah.” The woman scratched behind her ear.“Sorry, I was a little dizzy earlier,” she said, reasoning.‘Stupid excuse. What a stupid woman.’ Unfortunately, David could only say that in his heart. He actually chuckled.“You said to come home with you. Did I hear you right, madam?”Carina nodded her head. “Yes. I mean. I will drive you to your place. What did you come here for?” Carina asked pleasantly. Even though she already knew that her Javer came in a car which she thought was very old-fashioned and not very good at all. Carina had thought about this plan carefully. She really wanted her Javer to
They finally arrived at the apartment where David lived. “Ah, apparently you live here?” asked Carina. In David’s hands were many shopping bags. It was clothes, and other things Carina had bought for her Javer. Carina even forced David to accept it because David had refused it before.David nodded his head. “Just an old, ordinary apartment,” he said with a smile. Carina nodded her head in understanding.“Are you comfortable living here?” Carina asked. She tilted her face.“Of course, it’s comfortable, madam. This apartment is more than enough for me to live in.”The door is open. David offered Carina to stop by as a small talk even though he really wanted to kick this woman out of his sight.“Would you like to stop by first, madam? Maybe? I can make you some drink if you want,” he said, trying to be polite.Luckily, Carina shook her head. She looks at the watch in her hand. It’s quite late. The time she asked her husband had run out. She had spent too much time with this handsome man.
Carina is sitting beside her husband. “Open your mouth, please. Aaa.” She spooned the porridge made by the personal chef in this mansion to her husband. Mr. Baldovino opened his mouth. He chewed it slowly.“Alessio. I heard he left?” asked Mr. Baldovino suddenly. Carina stopped stirring the porridge when her husband asked about Alessio.‘Ouch. I forgot to ask Alessio. What reason did Alessio give to this old? I’m afraid he’s just testing me right now.’“Oh, is that so?” Carina asked. She put the porridge on the nightstand.“He didn’t tell you?” asked Mr. Baldovino, looking confused.Carina cleared her throat. “No. Em, I think he forgot to tell me?” Carina said with a smile.“Give me my phone, please,” he asked.“What do you want to do?”“Call Alessio. Why didn’t he tell his own mother that he was leaving? Did he do his job well? Who would take care of it if he left? Diego? I’m not sure about him. He can’t be serious about work,” he said.‘Tsk! How could he underestimate his own son?!’
