His feet stride closer to where the chuckle was coming from, and he shot without taking a look at who it was. Oddly enough, it was a puppet kept.“Stop playing around! Coward!” Jason roared, still shooting in the air until his bullets ran out.“Damn it!” He cussed, intending to load his gun. However, he had no bullet left. That was when Alex appeared, dressed in suite and having a glass of wine in his hand. He sipped a bit and then gave the bemused Jason a sided smile.Jason pointed the gun at Alex to perhaps scare him that it was loaded, but Alex was aware that it had no threat inside.“Care for a drink?” Alex offer adjusting his collar as Jason scoffed in disbelief. The way Alex was composed as a tough mafia who toys with his victims before sending them to the grave gave him goosebumps.“You must be joking” Jason mocked stun by this man who acted like though they were buddies.“What of dessert?” He furthered glaring at Jason, who seemed terrified but acted all brave.“None!” Jason r
The morning was filled with the latest news headlines which read that Jason had a plane crash while attempting to escape, but only those who were responsible for his death knew the exact details on how he died.Though Cynthia mourn over him, but she believed karma had caught up on him as people like Jason doesn't deserve to live but to die of their evils.The next on the line was the old man, which of course Alex wouldn't rest until he finds him from wherever he was. Lucian had only told him that he was a father of one of the boys whom he killed during his teenage age in defense.The cops were also searching for the old man, but Alex didn't trust their judgement because if the old man is found, they might set him free again.He had petitioned Rodger and Natalie to investigate those other mafias, if perhaps they could get a hint of where the old man was hiding.They refused to speak, and Alex visited them himself. His coming to the correctional center was an uproar as those prisoners w
He came out after an hour with a fulfilling face. Alex had gotten the answers he needed. However, not the present location of the old man.That old man turns out to be Eric's father, who had desired so much to erase Alex for murdering his old son. If one could recall, Eric was one of Alex's bully in high school and was the lead in every bully. He was also among those three boys who tried raping Natalie.Now, all he needed to do was to get the old man and get back at him for all he has done. Meanwhile, Alex was becoming much too busy that he barely had time for Natalie. Though, she could understand that he needed to deal with those who made his life miserable.She was going to stand by him in all and help him in all he required. Natalie was home, as Alex hadn't returned from the correctional center. She was feeling lonely without him and decided to call Alex. A meal had been prepared by her for him, and she was hoping he would come home immediately once he was done meeting Jason, but i
He glanced at them from the balcony, his eyes only rested on this girl who kept showering her fiancé with kisses. Rodger heaved a sigh and returned to the dinning table.It was his mother's birthday, but he wasn't going to wish her because it would only hurt him to grant her good when she was a villain herself.He pulled off the cloth which he had used as a clown outfit while maintaining a sad look. Those two were having fun, but what about him? Would they pretend as though he didn't exist?Rodger was finding it bored alone in the dinning, and he decided to leave. Possibly, he would discuss the old man the next day because he didn't want to interrupt their romantic moment.He stood up from where he sat, paced outside and had almost walk away when Natalie saw him and called out to him. Rodger shoved his gaze at her, she was smiling at him and running to meet him, but Alex hauled her back.“He heard you Natalie, there's no need to go over to him” he mused and Rodger swallowed hard.Nata
Alex found himself in his company. Most workers had returned home, and he deliberately wanted to stay here for the night and think of where that old man was. The curious lad locked himself up in the office.He brought out his laptop and began a research, intending to find a clue. While he was lost in thoughts and discoveries, his ears suddenly twitched at a sound which drew his attention.It was a footstep and it was creeping around. Alex jolted up from where he sat and decided to trace where this footstep was coming. His anxious eyes scanned the whole place as he treads slowly around the office. However, he couldn't find the stranger.He paused and let out a silent hiss while attempting to shove his face, he saw a shadow behind him, and he doubted it was his.Alex didn't move a bit as he intended to see what next this shadow would do. He swallowed hard and saw that the shadow had lifted its arms as though to stab him. The alert lad, ducked his head to avoid being stab or hit by this
Certainly, it was dead late and Alex knew Natalie would be worried over him, and so he texted her that he was fine and would be returning the next day.It was best doing that than conversing with her because she might make inquiry of where exactly he was and hearing her voice might make him speak.He hurried into his car, which he parked at the car lot and began to drive away to the direction where the old man could be.As for the man who was his victim, he chopped off his toe and tied him to the chair until death handles him. Despite the wailing from this man, Alex didn't listen, as he only told him that the man needs to feel the pain of all those he had hurt.He got to a spot and halted his car while loading the gun in his hand with bullets. Alex saw no need to turn this man into the hands of the police, as he was willing to take matters into his hands.Sadly enough, he didn't meet the old man there but someone else who turns out to be the men working for him; which were 7 in number
He flicked the picture in his hand and sighed. Today had been a stressful day, but he had to accept the fact that it was still fun notwithstanding, he spent time with Natalie. It made him let out a smile, but it faded when he received a call from the station informing him that his mother had passed out that very day.It was sudden as it made his heart skipped. The picture in his hand was that of his mother, and it slips off his hold out of shock.Rodger had to abandon what he was doing and hastily rushed to the correctional center, which was preserved for the females. She had committed suicide on her birthday and wrote a letter to Rodger. He winced gazing at her corpse, the heartbroken man would have fallen limply if the warden hadn't held him from falling.It was devastating for Rodger, though he might have grudges against her, but she was still his mother. He sniffed as a prison warder directed him to where her corpse was kept. The sad man tried not to cry out, but tears kept steami
Natalie teased her and told Vera that she should just admit to it, but Vera shoved that thought aside, knowing that Natalie doesn't want her to talk about Alex but focus on someone else.“Let me place a call to him” Natalie muttered. Vera knew she was only calling Rodger to ask if Alex was over there with him, and not asking how far he was.Sporadically, it's good to consider those who have always been there for someone. Vera was only misunderstanding her sister. Natalie always cares and often ask about Rodger every day and places a call to him too.While Alex on the other hand only considers finding the old man and barely had time for himself, talk more of others.She could hear his phone beeping and someone else responded. It was a doctor who reported that Rodger passed out on the beach and was currently in the hospital.Natalie jerked up from where she sat and switched off the call after making inquiry of which hospital he was kept.“What's wrong?” Vera asked as she saw how terrifi
