The two men who were standing actively by the door sighted a girl cart walking towards them. They couldn't keep their eyes off her, mostly when she was heading their direction.She pretended to passed them by with the wine glitter, knowing that somehow, they might call her back and if they don't, she brings up another way of feeding them the wine. The second had to call her back to hand them wine because they seem exhausted from duty. He did that purposely, just to explore her body with his lustful eyes.Natalie smiled at him and handed him the wine, but the first man was acting all tough before her.“Come on handsome, it's just a wine” she whispered taking a glass and gulped it down just to prove that there was nothing inside.The first man picked the third glass up and drank it while placing it back. Soon, their bosses would be there and Natalie had to act fast.The second man began to feel pains around his throat as it was burning, and before he could alert the first guard, he col
The cops had headed to this place but couldn't get a hold of those that started the rival because they had scaled away with the object through a boat.For Natalie and Rodger who had parted ways were hoping to find the culprit who was the old man but couldn't and so had to return to the auction hall.By the time they got there, they realized that the cops had taken over while the spies which they had sent had disappeared, although some spies got shot but the majority of them survived, wiping out the entire goons gathered in this place.They left immediately, they noted that the cops were heading their way. Most of the expenses spent was from Alex's pocket as he supported them, hoping that these two would find what they're looking for.Oddly enough, those men took the wrong button because it was all fake along which meant this was only the beginning of the war because soon, they would be after Rodger and Natalie.They needed to bring those tough men down who always had a way to escape t
Rodger smiled broadly as he hugged his mother shirtless, she pats him on the back and suddenly whispered.“I'm sorry Rodger, I had no choice”Immediately, she said those words, he suddenly felt a sharp pain on the left side of his stomach.He was becoming breathless as sweat had beaded on his face. His body temperature was becoming cold as he was shaking where he stood.His arms were still around his mother's shoulders, embracing her, and his eyes withering, tears suddenly flowed from it as he was frozen.Mrs. Helen terminated the hug immediately as she glanced at that side of his stomach. She had stabbed her son and wasn't even feeling guilty for doing that!Rodger swallowed hard in pains as his legs tottered backward in disbelief. He raised his eyes gradually at his mother who covered her mouth with her palm, also scared for what she has done.That was the only thing she could think of to get Rodger away from appearing at Alex's trials, mostly when he had the evidence that could get
He coughed wildly where he sat on the cold floor. Dark circles were around his eyes and his hands were paled like one who was lifeless and finding it difficult to breathe.The cell he was locked in got opened and someone treads inside. The sick man rolled his eyes to who it was and then scoffed.“Are you here to see me suffer?” He mused, coughing huskily and then sneezed.“You would die in this state” the second muttered, sitting on the ground opposite him.“It seems both boss and secretary are locked up together” the sick man mocked and the latter inhaled deeply.“You knew I wasn't the one who shot your wife, my sister” the latter began rubbing his palms together and staring at the former in the eyes.“You did, you shot the gun, whose feeding you with lies” “Lucian, you believe what you saw and that's why you desired revenge, why would I kill my stepsister even though I hate her, you're my secretary, and you knew better than anyone” the latter defended and the former laughed in a mo
The nurse was done stitching his injury and advised he took care of his health. Natalie had brought him to a nearby clinic to get treated. His eyes were fixed on the girl who stayed beside him. It was Natalie who made sure he took his medication and was well taken care of.She was making a call if, perhaps, the men she sent after Mrs. Helen has found her, but there was no report.It was already dawn and tension was written on her face. She had asked Rodger if perhaps he knew where his mother would be.He gave her all the addresses he knew she would be, but was nowhere to be found. She was stressed out and Rodger could feel it.It made him guilty also that he was involved in the fire accident that took place over Natalie's house. Though it was his mother who plotted everything, yet he was still an accomplice.Rodger attempting getting up from the stretcher where he was laid, but Natalie beckoned on him to stay still because his health was at risk.“I need to see Ethan…”“Don't worry, I
All his search was in vain neither could he contact her through the phone. It was getting even intenser than expected. Rodger decided to reach out to Natalie if she had gotten in touch with Alex.Her response was “no” because they weren't letting anyone visit for the meantime. Furthermore, she informed that Jason was over there.“What if he's dead, and they're trying to hide it?” Rodger thought out loud, and Natalie quickly tamed his words.“No! He's not dead, let's be positive, please… Rodger” she beckoned, sniffing as her tone was sober and terrifying.Her eyes kept glancing at the sign post hug at the gate of the prison which wrote;“Stay positive for a change”“My Alex is alive Rodger” she whispered rubbing the back of her neck gently while gulp hard.Her heart was aching, and her breath was becoming slow. She hadn't rested since her return, and the thought of not seeing Alex made her worried.“I'm coming over there Natalie, you should return home now”“No I can't, I…” She shut he
Meanwhile, Rodger had hurried to the prison yard, haven realized that Natalie hung up on him. He needed to be there with her. When he arrived, he couldn't see Natalie, and it got him worried.Rodger had to call her to confirm if she was alright. She responded and told him that she found her way inside the prison and would give him feedback if she sees Alex.That was a relief, Rodger intended to leave the correctional center to leave for his search when he sighted Jason walking out of this place with smiles.He wasn't recognized or perhaps sighted by Jason, who was rushing out. This man was making a phone call and the only words Rodger heard before this man pass him by was;“Inject him, he would confess without knowing”Rodger was curious over who Jason was talking to. He didn't have time to figure out more about this Jason. Just immediately Jason pass him by, Natalie's call came through.“Rodger, I can't find him anywhere and the inmates aren't saying where he is” she muffled on the p
9 hours ago.Alex had gotten out from the detention room where Lucian was locked up. He had a sad gaze on and his steps were steady and heavy.He had to rest his back on the wall out of shock. Now it was up to him to keep his promise to Lucian that he was going to help him get out of the center by noon today.A brief sigh left him as he placed his hands on his thigh, bent silently, and then shook his head wildly. Lucian had told him what he needed to know about the old man.Alex intended to speak with Rodger, but it was late, and he guessed would be asleep from the stress of last night. It was already 1am, which was a new dawn.At every intersection of the prison house, they were gates and guards standing in between. Each of the gates were opened for him. His bar was located in block B in the second floor, and he needed to walk pass 4 gates before getting there.Kim met him at the second gate and waved to him, but Alex didn't respond and just walk pass the lonely lad.He mused at Alex
