"Huh?" Candyce exclaimed.

She had been so lost in her naughty thoughts that she had almost forgotten that she was with someone. Well, how could she forget that she was with someone when the person was the exact reason she was lost in thoughts?

"What did you say?" She tried to get back on the course of discourse.

"Cardiomyopathy." Slade replied, gazing at her intently.

His eyes were dreamy to her and she could be lost in the moment, but she didn't want to be. What he had just said seemed quite serious, there was no room for wilting away in fantasy.

"You know, babe. There are a couple of things that when they are being talked about, they just point you to a definite end." Slade took a break.

Candyce was lost in the moment. Slade had just referred to her as babe. While at that, he was also talking about something that sounded very serious.

A part of her wanted to believe that he was doing this intentionally. There must be a reason why he was saying sweet and serious things at the s

    Slade got in the car and drove off to the slum. He pulled over in front of his Mamita's house. He could hear some noise coming from inside. The day was still very much young for there to be any sort of ruckus. When he walked in, he saw a man seated on the bed of his mamita. His eyes squinted and his blood started to boil. He had no idea why he was feeling like this. In fact, the feeling was instinctive rather than premeditated. "Who are you?" He asked. His voice was deep and hoarse. When the man heard the voice, he turned around at once. The man must have been taken by shock. It seemed like he didn't hear Slade walk in. This was another reason for Slade to be more pissed off! How could someone like this who was not aware of his surroundings be any close to his nanny?!Would he even be able to protect her? When Slade realised what his thoughts were, he quickly threw them away. He shook his head! Why did he suddenly think this man is his Mamita's boyfriend?!"Slade." The man called

    "OOO! What's this car?" She gasped as soon as she saw the car. Slade didn't say a word. He just opened the door and helped her settle in. He walked to the other side and got in. He ignited the motion and drove off. She looked around the interior of the car for a while, feeling the leather of the seat with her palm. She looked extremely blown away. "When last did I ride in a luxury car like this?" She muttered, chuckling as she felt the touch of as many thing as she could. "Where did you get this from? Did that man, Mr Jendall. Are you now working for him?" Mamita asked. Slade sighed then took a glance at her. How can he begin to explain everything to her? How can he explain to her that things were different now and they could have whatever they wanted whenever they wanted it?He knew that this would be too much for her to process at once, but by time, she would slowly get used to the luxury, and finally come to accept the fact. "Yes. He gave the car to me." Slade answered. "Re

    Slade stood grounded to that spot for a minute. There was a lot going through his mind as he stared at Linda. He would momentarily moved his gaze from her to the object of collision. It was a plastic box of garbage. The box hardly fell away when the car hit it because the impact was nothing serious. In fact, the box was still standing, tilting towards the bonnet of the carAnd there was Linda on the floor, rolling from one side to the other. Slade didn't need a soothsayer to tell him that she was faking it! But why? Why would she intentionally throw the garbage box in the way of the car and then make herself fall to the ground. "Slade!!!" Mamita yelled his name. "What are you doing standing there? Why are you not helping her up?"As Mamita scolded Slade, she walked to Linda and bent towards her. She tried to lift Linda up.When Linda heard Slade's name and lifted her gaze to see him, she felt utterly disappointed. There was no way she could hide the grandiose weight of the disappoi

    It would seem as though a festival was about to commence. There were a lot of people gathered at the scene. Who could have thought that so many of these rich folks stay indoors all day?! Or perhaps could there be a public holiday. Slade and Mamita were still in the car as Linda continously cried and yelled. She was acting as though the car had been doing 90 in the freeway when the collison happened. In fact, the scene got quiet interesting when Linda's legs knocked the box to the ground, letting the trash pour on the floor. The lower part of her body was actively wallowing in the trash as she rolled to and fro. Yet she did not stop. "This is preposterous!" One of the rich folks said. "Do they not know that this is an estate? How could they be going on such a speed in a quiet estate?" Another person argued. "Why are they still in the car for fuckssake!" One of the men yelled and moved closer towards the car. A lady suddenly grabbed the arm of the man who was walking towards the

    At this point, Slade could not argue. In fact, he was so flabbergasted that he couldn't find his voice. No matter how hard he thought about this, he couldn't help but wonder if this was premeditated by Mariana and her mother. If it was true that this was premeditated, then what do the both of them stand to gain here?Taking a glance at Mariana once again, Slade could see how resolute they were. There was a reason he had driven all the way here. If he had known, he would have stayed back at his Mamita's house and heal her there. He couldn't do that because of that man. He didn't want a third party to know what he was about to do. "Don't just stand there, move." One of the rich folks yelled at Slade. Slade shot a glare at the person who had the guts to yell at him. The man quickly hid his face as soon as he saw how tough and mean Slade's eyes were. Slade turned around after this and headed to the car. He got in and ignited the motion. He started driving.He drove towards Elaine and

    Slade didn't mind the voice, he headed straight to the foyer. He couldn't find Lord JK in the foyer. "Is your dad not at home?" Slade asked Candyce. "Who's talking please? I can hear a voice but I can't see anyone." Candyce rolled her eyes, folding her arms. Slade didn't know what to say to her. "Meeting so often makes me feel like the wedding is in the corner." The familiar deep voice of Lord JK came from his side. Slade looked towards the hallway. There was Lord JK in a robe, walking towards him. "I'm really sorry for being a bother to you. I had no other choice. Something urgent came up, and I couldn't think of any other place to go." Slade apologized. "Oh, come on, Divine Doctor." Lord JK chuckled. "If you are this grateful to me, then what should I do after you saved my life? Should I drop on my face and roll to and fro? Or should I Will all my properties to you? I mean, the first one might be hard to do because of ego, but the second is impending already. Just a wedding a

    "Who could it be?" Hushed whispers started flying around. The tension and anxiety scaled altitudes as gaze remained glued to the door. What should have happened in the blink of an eye seemed to be taking an eternity to be registered. "Could it really be him?" Those who were divided by differences and infidelity have now found a common ground and were not willing to compromise it. When the door opened, a tall man dressed in black was seen stepping out of the building. He looked to be at least 6ft6. Not only was he tall, but he was broad and hefty. "That cannot be him.""That's definitely one of his guards."The man started to walk towards the gate, outside which the group of people were gathered. As the man advanced towards them, they all tried to move back. None of them wanted to be a victim of violence. Although they were all rich folks, yet that was not enough to save them because they were obviously trespassing the property of the owner of the estate. "You better have a goo

    "The door is opening again!!" The same person announced again. The place suddenly became dead quiet. All eyes and attention were spent extravagantly on the direction of the door of the villa. The door slowly opened and the tall and broad man stepped out into the open. "It's that asshole again." Someone said gritting their teeth. "Like you can say it to his face." "You better don't dare me. What's the worse he can do? Beat me---""Oh my God!" Someone exclaimed all of a sudden. "What's it?""Who's that coming?""This can't be real." Someone's eyes widened, so much that they almost popped out of their face. "Is that him?""Who's that man?""That's Lord Jendall Kurtis, you bastard!" Someone snapped. Everyone stared in utmost disbelief as soon as they saw Lord JK walking towards the scene. This was so unbelievable that most of their jaws were drooping, difficult to be held back in place. Mariana gripped the arm of her mother as though she would rip it off. It was hard to tell why

    "Are you deaf? I said stop right there!!!" Manuel bellowed in utmost rage as he pushed the door open. Slade and Katrina were forced to a halt at the scream of Manuel. Manuel was really a persistent man. Slade would give it to him! Manuel made him remember Candyce. He missed her. "What did you do to her?" He walked straight to Slade and grabbed him by the collar. Manuel had been looking for a chance to punch Slade in the face. He had tried to do it earlier before Katrina stepped in. But right now, he would make sure that no one stops him. "What are you saying?" Slade wondered, trying to make a meaning of what Manuel was talking about. "Don't play the fool, you bastard!!!" He lifted a punch and planted it on the side of Slade's face. Katrina gasped when she saw this happen. Manuel on the other hand was in shock after the punch. When he punched Slade in the face, it felt like he had just punched a body of rock. He heard the bones of his fingers snapping at the contact and under som

    "Huh?" Manuel thought his ears were playing some tricks on him. Of course he heard what Slade had said but he refused to believe it. Slade didn't respond to him. Instead he turned around to look at Katrina. "You should lie down." He advised. Katrina looked around the layout of the building. She turned around inspecting every corner that her eyes could see from that spot. "There should be a room here." She led the way to one of the doors in sight. Manuel stood there in shock as he saw how energetic Katrina had become. Katrina who seemed weak and tacky was now moving lightly as though she was never sick. The door was pushed open and Katrina walked into a room. The room was well arranged and opulent. Although its size was not as big as every modern room, but its interior and furniture choices were just perfect. "We can use here." She turned to look at Slade as she sat on the bed. Slade walked into the room and looked around for a moment. By the metrics of comparison, he found thi

    "Katrina, I'm busy!" A serious voice of Jon blared through the speaker. Manuel was stunned by the manner at which Jon had spoken. He had always thought that Katrina was well respected and revered by Jon. If Jon had spoken on the phone like this, does it mean that he had done the same earlier, or some time before?"You should not call someone over and over again as though they owe you! I'm only trying to help you, don't make it difficult for the both of us." Jon kept on going as though he had been looking for an outlet to vent. "Don't call me again unless I call you. If you do, I'll make sure to restrain all your access to every services of mine that were exclusive to you." He warned sternly. "I'm hanging the call right now." He added. "Jon." Slade said point in time that Jon was about to hang the call in the fit of rage. "Divine doctor?!" Jon exclaimed at once. Everyone in the building were shocked by this. They were shocked by the fact that Jon Waterz, the mighty controller of

    Both Manuel and Katrina were startled when they came to find Slade seated in the safe house. It was rather too strange to believe. "Who the hell are you?" Manuel quickly stepped forward, making sure to shield Katrina from any potential attack. "If I wanted to kill the both of you, I'd had done it on your way here. In the blink of an eye, too." Slade replied, looking at Manuel who thought he was looking quite scary. "Answer me, you bastard! Who the fuck are you!!!" Manuel yelled, walking towards Slade. "How the hell did you get in here?" Manuel was now standing in front of Slade. Manuel didn't seem to have any sense of self-awareness or protection. He seemed to be more driven by his rage and emotions. Right now, the only thing he could think of was making this strange man beg him for his life. "I'll be on my way, then." Slade suddenly got up on his feet. It would seem as though Manuel hadn't been on the top of his voice yelling questions. Of course Slade could hear all the quest

    "Katrina?" Slade asked, trying to fetch the information that would complement what Lord JK had just said to him. "The president and leader of the Nyther-Rim Group." Lord JK added. "Oh. That bitch!" Slade exclaimed, his brows furrowing. When he called Katrina a bitch, the old woman quickly looked at him. Slade smiled at her, nodding. He wasn't sure whether or not the woman understood what that meant. He thought that an old woman like that wouldn't know much about curse words. "Did she call you personally?" Slade asked, reviewing the possibilities of this. "She dare not. She wouldn't even conceive the thought let alone try to act it out." Lord JK'S voice was firm and serious as he said this. He sounded quite offended, but Slade knew that the old man could not possibly be offended at him. Also, he knew that Lord JK hated every board member of the Nyther-Rim Group. Of course the old man knew the story of his family!"Then how were you able to decide that she was one who called?" Sla

    "Mr Jon." Katrina said as she answered the call. She put the call on speaker. Manuel was surprised that she would do that. He had no idea what the motivation behind this was. "I've been trying to reach the number of the immortal doctor, but I just couldn't." Jon Waterz replied with a tone of resignation. "I'm sure you know how difficult it is to talk to Lord JK. I tried talking to him but he didn't seem to be on the same page. His response was not optimistic." Jon explained further. "I believe that he has the same fears as us. He doesn't want to offend the immortal doctor." Jon added finally. Katrina was silent for a second. Who was this strange doctor that even the mighty Lord JK was scared of bothering? She couldn't wait to meet him. Not only for the purpose of being healed but for other reasons which she was yet to decide. "Is there nothing else we could do?" Manuel slipped into the conversation. He realised that Katrina seemed to have drifted from the conversation into anot

    After those last words of Ivana, she was out of sight. She disappeared and the trace of her could never be found again. Katrina looked to the side and saw a bird flying away. Her gaze lingered on the bird for a moment. There were a lot of things running around in her head. Things that weren't easy to come to terms with. Every little doubts that she had earlier about this strange lady had finally dissolved. She didn't need anyone or anything to prove to her that Ivana was truly the one who had done the deed. Ivana had just said something about someone putting a mark on her. Katrina wanted to believe that the Supreme god who had slipped the insect into her body was none other than Ivana's master. She believed that what was happening was something beyond the ordinary. Giving by a lot of circumstances: The death of all the board members, the disappearance and the bird that had just flew away. "Where did that bitch go just now?" Manuel came storming back in her direction. Manuel didn

    Katrina came to stop when she saw a pretty lady standing in front of her. The lady was standing next to an SUV. The face of the lady looked cute and innocent. Katrina didn't know what to believe at first as she stared at the lady. Katrina found what the lady was wearing quite funny. Her eyes squinted for a minute. The lady was wearing something that was made from the skin of a random animal. She didn't think she had seen that animal before. The lady could have been taken for someone rough and wild, but just staring at how cute and clean her legs were, it was hard to come to a direct conclusion. Katrina, at this point, was caught in between claws of confusion. She didn't really know what to attribute to this strange lady. Before she stepped out of the villa, Dexter had cried and warned her that the lady outside was the one who had killed all the board members. How could it be so, Katrina wondered? This strange lady didn't look like someone who could even harm a fly. "Oh my fucking

    If blinking his eyes a million times was the better resort, Manuel should have been able to arrive at a perfect response by now. What was set in front of him right now was beyond what he could have seen coming. There was a heap of newly killed people in the center of the living room. Each of the people had their bodies severed in different regions. The head of a man was cut off. The bowel of another was pulled out of the stomach. Intenstines were hanging around the neck of some. One of them had his legs twisted to the back and curled around the back of the neck. Manuel couldn't believe his eyes as he stared at the scene. He wished that this was nothing but a staged facade. Perhaps a sort of illusion that had been fused into reality just like the VR game. He was still speechless when he came to recognize the face of one of the dead men. "Klein?!!!" He screamed, running forward. Klein was one of the important board members of the Nyther-Rim Group."What happened to you, Klein? Who
