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
Natalie widened her eyes as Rodger quickly terminated the brief yet passionate kiss. A slap landed on his face. She couldn't believe he kissed her and only Alex could do that, no one else.“I'm sorry” he apologized, folding his lips and sadly gazing at her. Natalie blinked her eyes as she was still bemused.She didn't say anything to him and just walked away, even when he called her to stay. He went after her and held her arm, sincerely apologizing that he never meant to do that.They were just a distance from the car and Vera who was all alone with her phone noticed them. She pondered over what these two were discussing that their face looked tensed.Natalie heaved a sigh and shoved her hand away from him. Even though he didn't mean it, she has to be quite conscious and careful around him if he could kiss her subconsciously.“Take care Rodger” she muttered, almost taking a step away, and he said;“Didn't you come here to fetch me? Would you leave without me?”Natalie took a glance at
“There's no law over here, it's just you and me”The old man squint his eyes in pains as he felt that his body would explode any moment.“Don't, Alex!” He snarled, and the young lad stood up, scoffed again.“You're the first male to call me Alex, it's pleasing” he mocked and bounced towards the door intending to leave, but then he shoved his gaze to the old man who definitely was breathing his last from the poisonous substance roaming in his stomach.“Do you have any last wishes?”The old man gurgling, and the blood kept drooling out of his five organs and within minutes, he dropped dead.Alex glanced at the lifeless man before him, swallowed hard, and then heaved a sigh. His biggest problems was solved and now, he was going to dispose the body.While he was staring at the body, he got a call from one of his men that usually accompanies him.“Yeah, come get the body” he whispered and paced away with a serious gaze.***“Yet another gone!” A reporter announced. Oh yes, people feared fo
Alex snickered at her words while rising from the bed.“Wow, Natalie, you're judging me? Don't forget that you were once an assassin and that's what you still are…”“Alex, what do you mean? I didn't hurt anyone except those who came to attack me, it was defense, but you! Argh, you go over to their house and murder them even when they don't attack” she raged, annoyed at how Alex was bringing up her past.“Really? Are you now a saint?”“Stop acting like a psychopath! It's freaky weird, and you don't realize that!”Alex clenched his fist and paced closer to her.“What did you just say? You're calling me a psychopath?” He mused with a devilish smile at her.“I didn't, you just misunderstood me, Alex stop complicating it, the people whom you've tried hard to win their heart would turn back to hating you…”“You want them to hate? Are you planning to turn me in to the cops?”“No!no! You're getting it wrong! Alex, stop confusing my words, I just want a happy life for us…” She paused, frustrat
