"Miss Jennifer, what about all the assets your father left to the late Eddie? Will everything be transferred to your name?""Miss Jennifer, why wasn't anyone allowed to cover Mr. Eddie's funeral? Is it true that his body was donated to a research institution?""Miss Jennifer, there's also talk that Mr. Eddie has been cremated at a facility on the outskirts of town, is that true?"Eddie couldn't help but smile slightly at the questions pouring out from the journalists. As per Jennifer's plan, today was the day of Eddie's fake funeral. Jennifer held a press conference, and of course, there was no actual funeral taking place."You're as crazy as your father. No wonder he loved you so much and entrusted all his wealth to you."A tall man with a defined jawline and high nose appeared next to Eddie. The man smiled and extended his hand to Eddie."Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself amidst all this crazy planning. I'm Marquez, your personal lawyer and right-hand man. I was instructed by Jehem
Eddie was engrossed in his game, the flickering lights of the screen reflecting in his eyes as he maneuvered his character through a virtual battlefield. The tension of the game kept his focus razor-sharp, his fingers deftly dancing over the controller. Then, the insistent ringing of his phone broke through the digital world, jolting him back to reality. The name on the screen made his heart skip a beat—Jennifer.He paused the game, his mind racing with the implications of the call. Jennifer wouldn't contact him unless it was important. Taking a deep breath, he picked up the phone."Hey, what's up my little sister. Don't tell me something unimportant, please." Eddie greeted, trying to keep his voice steady."Shut up. I have a good news, moron," Jennifer's voice came through, filled with a mix of urgency and excitement. "Everything is ready for your new identity."Eddie leaned back in his chair, relief washing over him. "That’s great. What’s the next step?"Jennifer’s voice softened sli
June 12, 2023, New York, 5 AMEddie dragged his suitcase toward the back door of the house. The suitcase was immediately taken by the driver to be put into the car. Eddie wiped the sweat that was seeping through every pore of the silicone mask he was wearing."Are you ready? Why didn't you wake me up?!" protested Jennifer, approaching him in her pajamas."I just didn't want to disturb your sleep; you were already too tired yesterday from shopping and helping me."Jennifer lightly punched Eddie's arm. "So silly, what's the point of you staying here if you don't want to bother me? Give me a hug, I hope you find the freedom and life you want there!"Jennifer's hug moved Eddie deeply; his sister was showing more affection towards him with each passing day."Thank you for being so sweet. The ten thousand dollars you gave me will be put to good use, and I hope you can continue running all of Jehemian's businesses."Jennifer's eyes welled up with tears. She released the hug and looked intentl
The streets were already quite empty when Eddie left the airport in a taxi. His eyes scanned the large city, and he felt a surprising sense of comfort in Warsaw."Enjoying Warsaw at night is a great idea, sir. I always like to roam around alone before heading home and going to sleep," the taxi driver said."I would do the same if I were you, Mr. Driver. By the way, do you know any reasonably priced hotels in the city center?" Eddie asked.The car suddenly stopped, and Eddie's eyes focused on a small hotel sandwiched between a nightclub and a large casino."Here you go. This hotel may be small, but it's cheap, perfect for those who lost money gambling or are too drunk and sad. If you want a luxury hotel, just cross the street to the five-star one over there," the taxi driver pointed.Eddie nodded slowly. He then turned to the middle-aged man who was looking at him. "How much do I owe you?"Eddie was ready to take out his money when the driver shook his head and said, "No need. Consider
"Kyaa!"The scream and the sound of a shattered bottle made Eddie rush out of the bathroom to see what was happening in the bar.Several people had already gathered by the time Eddie arrived, and it seemed that none of the staff were approaching. Eddie immediately forced himself to join the crowd. His eyes widened when he saw a beautiful woman in a red dress, with the top almost open, lying on the floor while murmuring something in Polish."Hey, can you help me lift her?" Eddie asked one of the male patrons in the crowd surrounding the woman.The man hesitated for a moment but then nodded, stepping forward to assist Eddie. Together, they gently lifted the woman and carried her to a nearby booth. Eddie's mind raced as he tried to recall any Polish phrases he had learned. "Proszę się uspokoić," Eddie said, attempting to calm her. The woman blinked up at him, her eyes filled with a mixture of confusion and gratitude."Co się stało?" Eddie asked, trying to understand what had happened.Th
Eddie walked leisurely through the narrow streets of Warsaw, enjoying his second day in the city with his job as a cleaning service worker at a nightclub. The cool night air made Eddie feel refreshed. He wore his work uniform, a black shirt and black pants, which had become his daily attire. With steady steps, he headed towards the nightclub where he worked, "Luminous," which was already beginning to fill up with patrons.Eddie really enjoyed his job. The atmosphere of the nightclub, full of music and laughter, made him feel alive. Every night, he witnessed various characters with their own stories. Although his job was quite simple, cleaning the floors, wiping down tables, and ensuring everything looked tidy, Eddie found happiness in this routine.That night, Eddie arrived earlier than usual. He greeted his coworkers, the bartenders, the DJ, and the waiters with a friendly smile. "Luminous" was starting to fill up with incoming guests. The music blared loudly, pumping adrenaline into
"Eddie! Your girl has arrived!"The shout from Eddie's coworker prompted him to quickly leave the bathroom to greet the girl who had come to see him. Eddie's friend smirked cynically, raising both eyebrows. "I'm jealous, you haven't even been working here for a month, and there's already a clingy woman. That weird red hair charm of yours is undeniable!""Just normal, I just have a better aura than all of you. Congrats on the overtime, I've done everything well and will leave now. Bye. And don't forget to clean the toilet, because so many people will throw up tonight."Eddie's friends could only snort in annoyance at Eddie's words.Eddie walked out to the front of the club and found Anna waiting. She looked a lot better since their first encounter. Her eyes were clear, and she wore a bright smile that lit up her face. "Hi, Eddie!" she called out, waving enthusiastically."Hey, Anna. How are you doing?" Eddie asked, genuinely happy to see her."I'm doing great, thanks to you," she replie
Eddie returned to his hotel room, feeling a mix of exhaustion and satisfaction after a long shift at the nightclub. He tossed his jacket onto the bed and plopped down into the chair by the small desk. Pulling out his phone, he decided it was time to check in with his younger sister, Jennifer. They hadn’t spoken in a few days, and he missed her.He dialed Jennifer’s number and waited as the phone rang. After a few moments, she picked up. “Eddie! Hey, how are you?”“Hey, Jen! I’m good, just got off work. I’m working at a nightclub now, you know. It’s called Luminous. Not bad, really. How about you?”There was a brief pause on the other end of the line. Eddie could almost hear her thinking. When Jennifer finally spoke, her voice was barely above a whisper. “Eddie, I don’t know what to do…”Eddie sat up, alarmed by the change in her tone. “Jen, what’s wrong?”Jennifer took a shaky breath. “I saw Douglas with another woman today. He was...he was cheating on me, Eddie. I confronted him, and
