Kismet, Sofia, and Victoria talked for almost forty minutes before they came to an agreement.After the mother and daughter left, Naida asked her mother, “They used to be arrogant in the past. But now, they suffered losses and are not as powerful as us anymore, Mom. Still, they shamelessly came to us for help. Why are you asking for their help when they came here to seek our help?”“Know this one thing, Naida,” Kismet told her. “We can’t always be on top of others. The time we shine is not permanent, so it’s important for us to make as many friends and business partners as possible. If we can mend the relationship with an enemy and turn him into a friend, then we must be willing to do it all the more. Of course, we must always ensure that we’ll be on top.” Her face started hurting, so she couldn’t talk as much as she wanted. “Even if you hate them, don’t show it in your face. Got it?”Niada and Katherine nodded.Kismet went to her room. She took out a box full of powerful poisons from

On the late evening of the same Thursday, Jim was waiting for his dad while serving the customers. “He’s late today. He said he’ll be back in an hour, but he’s not here yet.”Currently, Jim was serving at the table where Choi was sitting. Choi knew who he was, but Jim didn’t.Choi looked at the lobster on the plate and said, “Why should I pay for this food?”Jim blinked twice. “Pardon?”“I’m asking why I should pay?” Choi asked again. He came here to just observe Jim as per Uzza’s orders, but he was willing to go a step further and test him.“Because I bought it and cooked for you?” Jim replied. Nobody ever asked him such a question, not even a kid, so Jim was still a bit taken by surprise.“I don’t get it. Do you see monkeys paying humans? They just take the bananas from the vendors and leave,” Choi retorted. “The lions, the tigers, the alligators, they don’t pay for the food they eat. They just fucking snatch it with force.”“Uh, we don’t do such things because we’re humans, duh,” J

The next morning.Selena woke up a bit late because she had stayed up late last night as she had to talk with some people on the phone.So, she was having a headache now. Her muscles felt sore. Her fingers were not bending.“I forgot to drink water before sleeping, and now my body is full of heat…” On top of that, she was feeling weirdly horny, which hadn’t been the case in quite a while. “I’ll be sixty in a few years… and I’m still getting wet dreams. This is embarrassing.”She drank a couple of glasses of water and then a bath, which refreshed her and also cooled her passions. She felt better now.When she came downstairs for breakfast, however, she saw a romantic movie being played on a large projector screen. It was a romance between two young adults, which took Selena back to her younger days. The thoughts once again stirred her passions. She could only shake her head right now as she couldn’t tell Uzza to stop watching that movie.After all, she didn’t have a good reason to tell

Early in the morning, Rebecca was standing on the balcony and was watching the machines eat the grass and debris left after the storm.Akash was working hard, and she appreciated that. “I hope Veronica gets well soon. No, she must.”A black SUV entered the villa.“Who’s here this early?” Rebecca wondered.And then two women stepped out of the car. They were Victoria and Sofia Myers. Rebecca only recognized the latter. “Why is that egotistic woman here?” she had a little bit of interaction with Sofia in the past, so she knew how annoying Sofia could be. “Ah, well, I have no interest in them. They probably are here to give a wedding card or something.”Victoria and Sofia entered the building and greeted Selena who was watching television with Uzza.Selena was acquainted with Victoria, so both of them shook each other's hands very well. She was also happy that someone finally visited her villa after many days. “It’s nice to see you again, Mrs. Victoria. You look stunning.”“Oh, I look no

“His name is… it’s written on my marriage certificate,” Rebeeca said.Sofia blinked twice, and then rolled her eyes. She was expecting Rebecca to have gotten a new flame in her heart, but she didn’t think that the old flame didn’t die yet. “Y-You mean, your husband? He’s dead, isn’t he? You can’t possibly be thinking of staying a widow for the rest of your life, right? You don’t even have children. That’s just stupid. No, it’s beyond stupid.” She got a bit emotional because she herself was in a similar situation where she knew she had to marry someone soon but was also fighting over her own feelings to forget the man she loved even after he gave her the biggest shock of her life and then quietly disappeared.“He’s not dead,” Rebecca answered.“Huh? What do you mean he’s not dead?” Sofia answered. “Don’t give me that ‘he’s still alive in my heart’ or some other sentimental ointment. None of us can live alone, and that’s a fact. Your husband died. You need to find someone suitable for y

Selena and Victoria were having a lot of fun as both of them talked about their careers. Both accomplished a lot, after all. And both of them were also the type who would crush their opposition using any means, so they liked each other’s company.“Why don’t you introduce your daughters to me, and your sons, too?” Victoria asked.“Uh, they are busy with their own work right now,” Selena gave an excuse because none of her children except Shawn seemed to be in their right mind. And Shawn also had gone out secretly to bring George back.“Oh, they’re working from home, huh.”“Um, yeah,” Selena forced out a laugh. “You should have brought your husband, too. I’m sure Gregory and Jacob would have liked each other’s company.”“He’s been very busy lately, trying to recover the losses our company suffered lately,” Victoria said. “It hasn’t been easy for him since our son and youngest daughter left home.”Selena’s heart lost her rhythm a bit from hearing those words. This was something she had al

“Did you really not have sex until a year ago?” Sofia asked Rebecca with more than just a bit of disbelief. “Are you serious? That means you turned 25 without having sex? You expect me to believe that YOU, someone who looks as good as you, was a virgin for so long?”“You can believe what you want to believe, but I told you the truth,” Rebecca replied as she was showing her photo album and clothing designs in her room.“Why, though?”“What do you mean why? Obviously, I don’t want to sleep around,” Rebecca quickly said. “It looks childish and stupid to me.”“But… don’t you feel wet down there when you see a hot guy?” Sofia asked. “How do you fight that feeling? I mean, I can’t. When I see a hot guy, I lose it.”“Why do people say ‘losing your virginity?’” Rebecca retorted. “The word ‘loss’ has a very bad connotation to it. Instead of ‘losing,’ I think ‘giving away’ is much more appropriate. As for your question about approaching hot guys, I felt insecure about it when I was young, but a

In the Origin Casino, which was the oldest casino in the city. George was playing roulette, with multiple women on either side. He just bet 10,000 dollars on number 7 and won and made 350,000 dollars. “Hahaha, I told you guys that God is with me! Everything I’ve been rolling since winning the lottery is hitting the gold mine! Can you believe that I already tripled the money I earned from it? And I’m going to double that today in this casino while playing the most fucked-up gambling game in history, the roulette!” His boasting also attracted added attention. It seemed like George knew exactly what he was doing. “Listen, I’m going to bet on another single number,” George told everyone beforehand. And he bet 100.000 on the same number seven, which made everyone believe that he was going to lose this time for sure. Many more people gathered around the roulette after hearing that someone bet a hundred grand in one round. And when the roulette was spun into motion, George kissed the go
