“Your father is innocent,” Gabe said, “but I believe that someone might be forcing your dad to do this.”Jessica looked at her dad who then frowned visibly. She stepped closer to him, but Russell intervened and kept her a few feet away. Russell looked at Gabe. “How can you say that he’s not the one behind the wheel when there’s clear footage?”“If someone were to wear a skin mask that looks like Jessica’s dad and then drives the vehicle and attempts to kill Jessica….” Gabe slowly uttered so that his words would penetrate deeper into those that were hearing, “then they can get away by putting the blame on her dad. But because Jessica survived, it’s possible that they approached her dad and threatened him to act like he’s the criminal.”Gabe’s words made a great lot of sense to Russell and Jessica. To add to that, Jessica’s dad opened his mouth and said, “They seem like very dangerous people, Jessica. I thought it was better that I go to jail for now, and then contact you and your husba

At a spa called Rhapsodia.“Y-You want me to work here in a spa?” a girl looked shocked as she was talking with an agent. “But this isn’t what you promised. You told me you’d get me a tech job.”“There’s no vacancy there, so I brought you here. This is a family spa, so nothing shady happens here,” he told her and took her inside to meet with the manager who was Derek Walker, the younger brother of Jessica.“Will I earn well in this spa?” she asked Derek.“Haha, if you work as a waiter in a restaurant, you’ll only get ten to fifteen dollars an hour,” Derek said. “But here you’ll earn anywhere between twenty to fifty dollars depending on your experience and client preference.”“F-Fifty dollar per hour?” the girl was shocked. “Who would pay fifty dollars just for massaging? I’m sure the clients will ask for kisses or other strange things, right?”“No, Miss,” Derek patiently explained. “Don’t compare my spa with others. I don’t own multiple spas like others do. I only have this one spa. A

Gabe, Russell and everyone were having lunch on the balcony of the top floor of Tuna Waves, with a magnificent view of the skyscrapers built all around the Creed Zone.Russell just finished his phone call with his grandfather.“What did he say?” Gabe asked him.“He says he’ll also personally look into it,” Russell said. “But from his experience, he says that this was probably done by someone I might have offended recently in the past few months or year.”“Did you receive any threats or something like that?” Gabe asked.Russell shook his head. “I trust my best to even help those that were bad to me, so I’m not sure what kind of a nasty guy would go after my beloved wife.” He gently grabbed Jessica’s hand. The fact that she was pregnant right now only added to Russell’s worries. Even though he was confident of putting protection around Jessica, would that completely guarantee her safety? He wasn’t sure about it.“Someone who benefits from her death must have done this,” Nicole opined. “

Russell and Gabe were traveling in the porsche.“This car is pretty sick,” Gabe loved the comfort and the noise of the engine.“This is my grandfather’s,” Russell said. “He’s grown too old to drive this, so I’m using it.”“Mm, this is maintained well.”“Otherwise, I wouldn’t be driving it every day,” he replied. “So, where did you get the picture?”Gabe was surprised. “Well, I have my ways.”“Is that so?” Russell faintly smiled. “I only see the wedding ring on your hand, but I still feel like you’ve got another ring, if you know what I mean.”Gabe’s expression changed. “I-I’m not sure what you’re talking about.”“Chill,” Russell softly said. “I’ve used a system in the past, too, to keep dangerous enemies at bay. It’s power was too scary, and it’s influencing my thoughts and actions in its own way, so I had to give it back.”Gabe went silent for a bit. He wasn’t sure if he should talk about the system or not, but Systa asked him to ask Russell what system he had. Gabe didn’t know if Ru

As far as Gabe knew about Russell, he was more of a silent guy in the class who minded his business. Nevertheless, he did attract many friends because he would go out of his way to help them, so anybody would feel free to approach him. Back then, Gabe thought it was just weakness, but now, he didn’t have a similar opinion.Russell saw Gabe smiling and asked, “Why are you smiling? Is it because you think I gave her too much?”“No. I once bought costly high heel sandals for Kiera because she said she liked them and wanted me to buy them for her,” Gabe said. “They cost 3000 dollars, and I had to pay for those in 6 month installments. I had to work extra hours to pay that money.”Russell’s expression changed. From Jessica he had heard about Gabe’s story because Irene had told Jessica. “Both of us were in love with the beauties of our class, and both of us got fooled.”“Yeah,” Gabe forced out a smile. He blinked twice. “Wait, you, too?”“Ah, yeah, mine’s a long story with Natasha.”“Oh…” G

A couple of minutes earlier.Russell entered the building without any issues. The armed guard was flirting with the receptionist, and both of them completely ignored him, so he was able to go past them and look for the owner.As he searched for the owner in that medium-sized building, he saw a few diamonds framed on the walls, with the names of people and also abnormal prices mentioned under them. Most diamonds were worth over ten thousand dollars, but some bigger ones were worth as high as fifty thousand dollars.“Making business out of people’s emotions and lives…” Russell’s blood boiled as he remembered how the owner was all smiles as he gave the visiting card.In the owner’s room.The owner was talking with a friend on the phone, “Just cook the books and evade the taxes like I do. I help convert black money to white money through my businesses and take great commissions. It’s very simple to earn money if you find the loopholes in the system. Of course, you need to go the extra mil

The receptionist couldn’t keep her hands straight when pointing the gun at Russell. “Put it down, I said,” she raised her voice.“If I put it down, you are going to shoot both of us,” Gabe said. “So I’m not going to do that, but let me remind you… a bullet from your gun probably won’t kill him, but a bullet from this beauty will… Well, you can see how badly your boss’ shoulder got hurt. He’ll probably never be able to use his left arm well again. He will not even be able to properly sleep for months. Do you want that kind of pain in your life as well, catty eyes?”Gabe’s words made her put the gun down on the table.“Uh-ah, you should throw it away,” Gabe suggested.She frowned and then threw the gun a few feet away from her.Russell quickly went and picked up the gun and checked to see if there were bullets inside. And it was fully loaded.Holding the gun in one hand, he came to Henry and kicked him, telling him to get up. Both Gabe and Russell took Henry with them.Russell drove th

It was no ordinary explosion. The nearby buildings were rocked by it, and half-a-dozen people suffered serious injuries.At the same time, Henry, who was unconscious, suddenly woke up and began to convulse and then collapsed in a matter of seconds.Gabe touched his neck and checked the pulse. “H-He’s dead.”Russell’s eyes slightly widened. “It’s not you, right?”“Are you kidding me? Why would I do such a thing?” Gabe frowned. “You should stop doubting me for everything. Whoever did this must be somewhere nearby. Let me see if I can find them.” He used Systa’s help to intercept the wireless signals that were in that neighborhood.While Gabe seemed busy, Russell couldn’t sit still. Because of many people trying to trick him or take advantage of him in recent times, Russell had stopped trusting anybody other than the people that were very close to him. This was also part of the reason why he didn’t feel like meeting with his old friends.“I found nothing,” Gabe said.“They must have sent
