Chapter Seventy-Seven: Their Past.“AT FIRST, we enjoyed it a lot. We feel like we are on top after years of being bullied, after years of being the laughing stock. It feels like heaven until we finally start to realize what we are doing when Sylvester starts to be more greedy… When he becomes greedy, we are forced to do whatever he wants to do. While we are in college, we earn income through our organization. It was horrible, but then we couldn’t stop because the money that we are earning from this business was also helping us financially. Unlike Rodolfo who was born with a golden spoon, we are not the same as him. We should strive harder to achieve our dreams.”Bruce started to reminisce about everything that happened thirteen years ago. He remembered what happened that day, the day that he finally left Black Tiger Organization.“This is too much, Sylvester. We’ve already achieved what we wanted, I think we should stop here,” Victor said after they counted the money that they earned
Chapter Seventy-Eight: Not Valid.AFTER Bruce’s confession to Paxton and Red, they decided to go back to States with Bruce. They didn’t force him to come back with them but he volunteered to come. He wants to reveal the truth and also face Sylvester after thirteen years of hiding. After all, secrets will never remain a secret. The truth behind Sylvester’s wealth will finally be unveiled.“You have to know another thing that I haven’t told you,” Bruce said. They are currently on the airplane, their flight back to the States.“What is it?” Paxton asked.“He was also the one who killed his brother.”Paxton was surprised. Bruce had so many things that he knows and he also said that he has evidences. He was the living evidence to Sylvester’s evil doings.“What? How did that happen?” Bruce straghtened his seat and looked at him carefully. “The Golden Realty that he built was originally belong to his brother, right? His brother was the original chairman of the company and he planned to giv
Chapter Seventy-Nine: Invitation.RED took out his phone from his pocket and opened the camera. He quickly poses in front of the camera together with Paxton and Bruce.“What are you doing?” Paxton asked in confusion. “Are you kidding? We’re in a critical situation now, how come you still want to take pictures in this kind of situation?”He glared at Paxton while pouting his lips. “The problem with you, is sometimes you’re too negative. We are going to take a photo to post it online so our godfather would see this.”“What?” Paxton was still confused. “Are you kidding me? What if he saw that we’re with Bruce and he attack us…” A smile crept into Paxton’s lips. “Hmm, you were thinking right. We will post this online so that he can see that we are with Uncle Bruce.”That realization made them took photos as many as they can. And although Bruce was confused about the reason why they had to take photos, he also pose for them. They all smiled at the photo and then Red posted it on social me
Chapter Eighty: Father.THE next morning, they went to Sylvester’s mansion together with Bruce. Oliver was the one who’s driving, beside him is Paxton. On the backseat, Bruce and Red was there. Red was busy combing Bruce’s hair to tie it into tail. “At least you look decent once you face him,” Red said. “How does he look? I think he looks much younger than me,” Bruce replied. “I haven’t seen him even on the news.”“He looks old. Who wouldn’t look much older when you work your ass off 24 seven,” Red chuckled. “It’s good to work smarter than to work harder. However, he work harder and smarter at the same time so he became older.”“Rhyming, huh?” Oliver laughed.“Should I change profession to rapper?” Red asked.“You have chance!”They laughed while their on the way to the mansion. Talking jokes and laugh over simple things. While Paxton remained silent. He doesn’t know why he’s feeling nervous, he has a bad feeling that there’s something wrong.The entrance to Sylvester’s mansion was
Chapter Eight-One: His Frustrations.“IS he really my father?”Paxton couldn’t help but ask Bruce who remained silent while Sylvester confessed his biggest secret. He knows about it but doesn’t tell Paxton, knowing how mad he is towards Sylvester, he knows that this will be his reaction.“Yes,” Bruce replied. A loud curse from Paxton echoed around the dining area. Even the servants left the room because of how scary he was right now. His eyes were raging in anger, he couldn’t believe the truth.“You’re upset right now, Paxton but I hope you understand me. For the past ten years, I trained you, I became your father in those years, didn’t you cherish all those moments? I even gave you my surname. Do you know how happy I was when your surname changed to Braxon? For twenty-five years I’ve been waiting for you to call me father and when you did, it makes me feel so happy. Don’t you feel the same?” Sylvester asked.Tears finally run down Paxton’s cheeks. He was panting as he remembers ever
Chapter Eighty-Two: Reminiscing.LIFE has always been too hard for Sylvester. He was born into a poor family. Aside from they are poor, he has a broken family; his mother left them because of his father who was an alcoholic. He was raised by his father who always beats him up whenever he does wrong. There were also times when it wasn’t his fault but his father put the blame on him. Being a poor boy raised by a poor and broken family, he dreamed of having money…So that, if he has a lot of money he could pay for happiness. A lot of people was happy whenever they have money. The moment money laid their hands, they will buy something that can make them happy. And that happiness, he lacks that word. He never really know what happiness feels like because… no one ever loved him before. No one thought to him how it feels, so he thought that maybe money would make him feel that emotion that he has been dying to feel.“Damn you little rat! Our teacher scolded me again because of you! You littl
Chapter Eighty-Three: Shutdown.ON the way back to his Villa, Paxton was still sulking over what he discovered earlier. Everyone was silent including Bruce that was sitting in the backseat. They are all still in shock.“What is your plan now?” Red asked, breaking the silence between them.Paxton sighed and then looked outside the window. Thinking that he will put his own father behind bars makes him anxious. But on the other hand, he never really treat as his father but as his godfather who’s willing to help him all throughout. Even though he finds out that he was his father, that won’t change his mind.“We will still continue our plan of putting him in jail. What he did was unforgivable,” he replied.“That’s good, I thought you’d already changed your mind after his confession. He deserves to be in jail for killing all his friends.”He knew that Sylvester confessed to him because he wants him to change his mind. Sylvester was evil and he doesn’t believe in his sentiments, he was so su
Chapter Eighty-Four: Give Up.“SYLVESTER Braxon had arrested this morning after authorities confirmed that he is the Mafia Boss of one of the largest Mafia Organizations around the country. It has been thirty-eight years since the gang was built…”William turned off the television after hearing the news and then he turned his head to Paxton and Red who were now sitting beside him. They should be happy by now just like what William is feeling but then the two of them looked like they are not happy. Paxton remained silent and straight face while Red looked away.“My Uncle has finally been put in jail and I will be the new chairman tomorrow. Paxton, Ryker, your father was killed by my Uncle, you should be celebrating now! You two looked like you didn’t like the result of it,” he added.Red sighed and then leaned back on the sofa before he closed his eyes.“I want vodka. I want to go to the bar to drink and forget everything that happened just this week,” Red said chuckling. “I’ve discover
