"You lied Gerald I waited in the cold! But you never showed up! Why did you do that?" She began wailing profusely that his heart skipped."Sorry miss, I'm not gerald, I lost my way..."Her scoff made him stop in his speech that he clearly had to gaze at her to see if she was some knowable but no way! She was different."I trusted you to come but I guess you were off satisfying one your mistress that you didn't even show up at your own wedding!""What?"This lady was becoming piss off from the way he was acting all witty as though not guilty of what she spoke."Who are you? You got the wrong person, if you would excuse me, I've got to leave" he beckoned intending to walk pass her but she obstructed his view and said;"I'm not letting you go! Dispicable man, you..."Her wish was for the proper word to come out but they were stucked in-between her teeth that only her tears spoke the words and it was left for him to interprete what they meant and he didn't look like one who was intereste
"Alex" She blasted and the line got disconnected."She's scary" he commented wondering who the fiancee could be because from the looks of it, the ladies from last night seems to be acquinted with him.Another call came in and it was a different woman again requesting to have a word with him but his reply was the same thing as the former. He crawled towards the telephone and disconnected the cables just to avoid further calls or interference with his thoughts. This wasn't time to let women disturb him.Stretching his hand and letting out a yawn, made him sleepy but he needed to clean up this room, Incase that pokenosing secretary storms in. He mumbled to himself, glanced at the rampaged room and told himself he got this.Doing clean ups wasn't stress for him as he got lazy sisters around, and all the house chores were shifted over to him. Even though he worked all his life, he wasn't appreciated as the girls took all the glory. That reminded him of valery who had wished him to survive
"What's going on?""Oh, she's a thief, who stole something vital, don't worry sir, she would be put behind bars" the manager assured combing his brows with his fingers and faking a smile, that was obvious it was an act. Who could smile genuinely at this man's presence? Everyone just has to maintain their distance somehow and if this manager had his way, he would have preferred to be a minor worker over here than being promoted to a manager which got him doing dirty jobs for this man."Sir, this way" the Manager's voice eluded his thoughts and Alex scoffed, bothered by what to say at the conference. Mostly when he wasn't with Lucian to guard him. That secretary of his took a different path when they got out of the elevator, claiming he needed to handle another issue that came up.While the manager led the way, Gerald kept looking back if perhaps he might have a glimpse of that strange girl but she was gone. He hoped she escaped them though because he needed to get information from her
These two stepped out as soon as the elevator came to a halt at their designated place, and then each took different route with a different agenda in their mind.Meanwhile, the latter who was Gerald, accompanied by his secretary had gotten into the company. They were able to surpass the mob of press outside. Gerald had no idea why this was the second place they had to visit after sealing up the matter with the claimed journalist who goes by the name, Eric. Since they got here, the latter haven't said a word as his dull and unexpressive face could tell that he was distressed over something.His secretary always had a serious look so it was hard to guess if he was worried or even emotional for a bit, he had to beckon on gerald to act all natural or else might give the personnels they were going to meet a negative impression.Earlier, he would say to himself that he fumbled, not knowing what to say to the greedy journalist he saw, but his secretary helped out in a bloody way. It was diff
"We're all going to die!" A middle age woman cried while covering her ears from going deaf due to the sound made by the shooting gun. To worsen it, they couldn't see who was pulling the trigger but they could tell, the person was close by. Horripilations hits them, wondering how this would end.Gerald shuddered, tears had gathered in his eyes, only this woman seemed courageous over here as she flip off the curtains to expose the windows. She took a squatting position when doing that and motioned to the stiffen Gerald that they needed to get out, somehow.Shockingly, she saw one of the assassins at another building aiming the gun at the conference room, it targeted at Gerald but kept missing the target."Shit!" She lamented thinking of a possible way to escape, her eyes gazed below, the height was a distance and she could barely see the ground completely, the assassin found her preying and intended to shoot at her but she was clever enough to shove herself aside.He could hear whispers
Lucian collected the card and tore it in his presence with no much wastage of time because he was a man with actions."Watch your steps Rodger or else, you might fall into your own trap, have a nice day" he whispered and gave a sided smile."You...sly!" Rodger wroth clenching his teeth as he could see Lucian lower his eyes at his feet then at the suit he wore.He was fond of being called name by this mafia and one thing others knew was that Lucian was fearless, perhaps that's why Gerald kept him close to do all dirty jobs for him. However, it was hard to dictate what goes on in Lucian's mind if was against Gerald or for him."It was you that night" Lucian thought to himself and suddenly paced away with a nervous face. As for rodger, a groan could be heard from him, he could tell what that act of Lucian meant and definitely needed to curb this man's thoughts about him.Rodger chuckled hysterically, this man knows way too much and the only way to keep him silent was ending his life befo
"Who do you suspect sir?" Lucian Furthered making Alex puzzled. Of course it was the man standing here, his experience at home had made him lose trust in anyone. Gerald had to ask Lucian where he was off to and Lucian gave him a lucid explanation.He went off to have an agreement with the underdog lord's as a representative of Gerald It got complicated that Alex had to ask if he had any family or relatives. However his response was that, he never had one."I'm an orphan?""You cut off from your family a long time ago, so they are as good as dead""How about siblings?""Yes, one"Lucian was charged with responsibility of answering all this questions set by the curious Gerald who needed to do what was right while he was here.Lucian needed to know if perhaps his boss actually did the set up so that these men wouldn't expose the proposed plans and be ahead of it, however this man was actually asking about his biography indirectly instead of focusing on the attack."What does he do for a
Even though he was the one, he sure knew how to escape the law. It made Gerald hate the character he was in, obviously, couldn't he just have transmigrated into someone good or an old man who sure was done with his life either good or bad."You're saying he's the one, do you have any evidence?" Lucian defended but she didn't give a respond rather, her peering eyes rested on Gerald who held firmly the file in his hand.Her heart raced seeing him like that, this was the only she chance she had to be close by yet this damn secretary wasn't giving her the chance and questioning her.Though she knew Gerald wouldn't help out, she still wanted to give a try. She was quite surprised when he used polite words for her and wasn't acting all ruthless like he does but looked worried. If she was dreaming, then she never wanted to wake up and just live in this imaginations.She had slapped him out of anger and frustrations, he had told her to wait for him that they would be together but rather, he
