Vincent was a little uncomfortable being approached by Claudia. She kept clinging to Vincent. Edmund watched the two of them. Then, he smiled.

Apparently, Claudia really liked Vincent. This was the first time they had met. It was obvious from the girl's behaviour. Good, that was exactly what Edmund was aiming for. He was trying to bring his niece closer to Vincent.

"Vin, can you take Claudia home? I have some business tonight," Edmund excused himself. He reasoned that Vincent wanted to take his niece to her house.

"Oh, I see. No problem," Vincent agreed.

"Won't it trouble you later?" Claudia turned to Vincent.

"That's fine," Vincent replied.

After dinner, they went their separate ways. Now, Vincent had to take Claudia to her house.

"Come with me!" Vincent called out. Claudia hurriedly followed behind him.

Claudia was very happy when Vincent took her home. Along the way, Claudia kept chatting, engaging Vincent in conversation as he drove. There was always something to talk about. Could

    "What do you mean you fired Claudia?" Edmund pretended not to understand the meaning of Vincent's words."Your niece has behaved insolently. She's gone too far and trampled on my pride with her sneaky ways," Vincent sneered.Vincent's tone had changed. What had been formal was now casual in front of Edmund, his investor. Edmund was surprised by the drastic change in attitude Vincent had shown him.It was as if Vincent had now dared to challenge Edmund. Without hesitation, he also warned Edmund for the last time. In an elegant way."Sneaky way?" repeated Edmund.Whether Edmund knew or not, what Claudia had done to Vincent. What is clear is that Vincent still suspects those who are conspiring behind him. In the end, sooner or later Vincent would find out about their deceit."Claudia has stolen a lot of my company's confidential data. She told me that you told her to do it," Vincent said.

He couldn't say goodbye to Milea.Likewise, Milea also couldn't tell Vincent about Mr Eduardo's current condition. Milea cried in front of Alvin. She was very confused about who else to ask for help."Miss, Mr Vin told me to look after you. So, entrust everything to me.

    Vincent called Alvin back. Because his secretary never came to pick him up at the airport. He could die of annoyance waiting for him like this. If he couldn't pick him up, Alvin should have told him. That way he could take an online taxi. Now, there was no clarity from Alvin. It was difficult for him to go anywhere."Why did Alvin hang up?" Vincent wondered. It was useless to wait for him. He would just take an online taxi back to his new home.On the other hand, Alvin had a sudden panic attack. He accidentally switched off his mobile phone and rushed out of the car. He had to see how the old lady he had just hit was doing."Grandma, are you okay?" Alvin confirmed. The look on his face immediately turned anxious as he saw her helpless, lying on the tarmac."I'm fine," she replied.Thankfully, the old lady was fine. She was just surprised to find herself in front of Alvin's car. Ah, what a surprise. Alvin was almost frustrated earlier. If anything happened to her, his career was over a

    "What? The landlady is the one who doesn't want to move in?" Vincent was surprised.Alvin nodded. He was sure because the lady had been the most vocal in protesting the construction of Vincent's flats. It seemed that she was strongly opposed because she felt that she was at a disadvantage in terms of the business of renting houses and rooms.Alvin also explained that the bitchy lady refused to move before meeting the owner of the new flat."You didn't say that the owner of the building was me, did you?" Vincent confirmed."No, I didn't. The lady doesn't know, sir. I'm still keeping the owner a secret. In accordance with your directive at the time."Vincent was relieved. Alvin did not divulge his identity as the rightful owner of the building. It wasn't time for them to find out. Vincent was just biding his time. When the time was right, he would show up on his own.As for the building dispute, Vincent would resolve it as quickly as possible. That was also the reason he came back. Ther

    Milea told Vincent that Mr Eduardo was seriously ill. Vincent became very curious, what exactly was Milea's father's illness. Vincent was still silent. He waited for Milea to explain."My father... his memory has decreased. His thinking and speaking skills have slowed down. His behaviour also changed, although it happened gradually," Milea said. Vincent was surprised to hear Milea's story.Ever since Vincent left the company three years ago, Mr Eduardo had been sickly. The sixty-five year old man felt that he was missing Vincent. He really wanted Vincent to come back to his company."Vin, my dad didn't remember me several times. He even forgot the names of things around him. What should I do to him now, Vin?" Milea asked Vincent for his opinion.Milea was very sad when she said it. Unbearable, tears finally fell down her cheeks.Vincent wiped away Milea's tears. "Did you get the results of the examination? What did the doctor say?" He calmed Milea

  • Lorenzo's Betrayal

    “Don't be rash, Vin!” Ryuga warned.“I know. I'm not that stupid,” Vincent retorted.“So, what's your plan?” asked Ryuga.“I don't know where Kazuto got all this information? Didn't we protect the security system?” Vincent was confused.“Do you suspect someone like I think right now?” Ryuga smiled somewhat sarcastically in response to Vincent's conclusion.“I don't know. I'm not sure,” replied Vincent who was still shrouded in indecision.***At the Ryuujin-kai base, now housed in Nakamura's residence, tension filled the room as Vincent, Nakamura, Valeria, and the other clan leaders eyed Lorenzo suspiciously. Information that should have been confidential had instead leaked into Kazuto's hands, and there was only one possibility: there was a traitor among them.“Lorenzo...” Nakamura squinted, his voice sharp as a dagger ready to stab the Italian mafia man. “What exactly are you hiding from us?”Lorenzo remained calm, but there was tension in his jaw. “I don't know what you're talking

  • Kazuto's Overthrow Strategy

    “We're changing our strategy. It looks like a trap,” Vincent concluded. After he saw Milea being held hostage by Kazuto.“In that case, we return to the headquarters at my residence. Don't act rashly since Milea is in Kazuto's hands right now.” Nakamura agreed. He quickly turned right and returned to the base.Inside the room was dimly lit, illuminated only by the bluish glow of a large computer screen transmitting a digital map of the harbour. The subtle hum of the electronics combined with the sound of Lorenzo's fingers tapping on the keyboard. The smell of stale coffee and metal filled the air around them, adding to the sense of tension that hung between them.Vincent stood with both hands resting on the desk, his jaw hardened as he stared at the screen. His eyes were sharp, full of anxiety that he tried to hide.“How's it going, Vin?” asked Ryuga.“We don't have much time,” Vincent said finally, his voice that of someone under stress. “Kazuto knows we're after him, and now he has

  • Creating Hell for Kazuto

    “Welcome, Vin,” greeted Lorenzo, who was now leaning on the table with a sly smile of satisfaction. “You really know how to make a scene, Vin.”Next to him, Valeria crossed her legs with a small grin. “I was expecting you to come, Vin. You're... too stubborn,” the mafia lady remarked.Vincent snorted, no longer surprised to see them all here. Lorenzo, Valeria, and Nakamura. The three figures who had been a thorn in his side, it turned out they were all in cahoots behind the scenes.Nakamura, who was standing by the window, finally spoke up. “I knew you'd find this place, Vin.” He turned around, his gaze sharp. “Do you miss your wife that much?”Vincent took a deep breath before answering, “I don't care about your games. I don't care about what you've been planning all along. But there is one enemy we must conquer.”The room fell silent for an instant. “And I know you all also want to see Kazuto fall.”Among the three people, only Lorenzo responded to Vincent's conversation. It was cer

  • Counterattack from the Allies

    In an underground bunker hidden in the city centre, Vincent stood still. He always found a place for himself to hide from both Lorenzo and the Ryuujin-kai.“I was their target from the start. Damn it!” Vincent threw everything around him in annoyance.The blue light of the computer screens around him flickered, clearly drawing the image on his tense face. A message that had just appeared on the screen was still glowing, the letters feeling like a blow that shattered his wall of faith. Behind it was a special symbol that reminded him of a name. Kazuto.[Give up, Vin!]“That symbol is ....”His hands gripped the table firmly, his breathing short and rather heavy. No way. Kazuto was already dead. He saw for himself the explosion that destroyed the laboratory where they were studying all those years ago. However, if Kazuto was really alive...The sound of footsteps quickly approached Vincent. His assistant appeared from behind the door with a serious expression.“Sir, we have a problem. T

  • Back to Starting Point

    “Ryuga, I can't run anymore,” Milea complained. Her chest still felt tight.“Does your breathing hurt?” Ryuga panicked after seeing his cousin's pale face. He knew full well Milea was still sick. The shortness of breath caused by the poisonous gas made her weak and unable to run.“I'll get help,” said Ryuga, who immediately called someone.Blood was pouring from Ryuga's temple, but he didn't care. His breathing was ragged, his left hand still tightly grasping the arm of Milea who was now breathlessly running by his side. Behind them, the roar of footsteps was getting closer, the sound of shouting and the whizzing of bullets echoed in the dark hallway they were passing through.“Looks like we still have some running to do, Milea! Are you up to it?” asked Ryuga before pulling her faster.Milea was still clutching around her chest, barely able to catch her breath. Her body was already very tired, her heart racing in panic from the pursuit of Lorenzo's men. However, she knew that they had

  • Shadows of the Past

    “Vin, where are you?” Milea woke up from her sleep. She looked around, there was no one in the hospital room.Milea began to feel uncomfortable in the hospital. Her every move was being closely monitored, and the nurses who came into her room felt unfamiliar, as if they weren't just ordinary medical personnel. Her instincts told her there was danger lurking.“Who are they?” muttered Milea. She had to be wary of strangers.“Excuse me, is my husband here?” she asked the nurse.“No, Madam,” the nurse replied.Milea didn't ask any more questions. She knew Vincent was probably very busy out there. She would wait for him, if necessary she would stay up late into the night.That night, when the hospital seemed quiet, a man snuck into her room. Milea was startled, about to scream, but he quickly put his hand over her mouth.“Calm down, Milea. I'm here to help you,” he whispered.Milea looked at him warily. “Ryuga?”The man smiled faintly. “Yes. Your cousin came to rescue you.”Milea smiled sa

  • Fragile Enemy Alliances

    “Hold on, we'll be at the hospital soon,” Vincent told Milea, who had just woken up from her stupor. Milea's body condition was very weak due to inhaling too much poisonous gas.Milea's breathing was laboured. “Vin, hurry up!”Vincent stepped deeply on the accelerator, his car travelling faster than ever before, cutting through the city streets that seemed indifferent to his panic. On the side seat, Milea was still breathing heavily, her fingers gripping Vincent's arm with all the strength she had left.“Vin ....” Her breathing was heavy, her eyes were wide, and her face looked deathly pale. The poisonous gas that Milea had inhaled had made her body seem to rebel.“We're almost there!” Vincent shouted, his voice full of anxiety.Up ahead, the red light was already on, but Vincent didn't care. The horns of other cars roared angrily, but to him only one thing mattered: his wife had to be safe. He turned the car roughly, the wheels screeching when he finally reached the hospital grounds.

    The next day, Vincent embarks on a dangerous journey to Italy. He wants to uncover the truth that has been hidden behind the long conflict involving his father and Lorenzo Piero.There, Vincent meets a secretive old friend of his father's, an elderly man named Alessandro Moretti. He had obtained the man's personal data from a system he had been investigating. With a sharp look in his eyes, Alessandro warns Vincent that Lorenzo is just a puppet in a bigger game.“Be careful, son!” Alessandro admonished. “There is someone behind the scenes, someone more dangerous than you can imagine,” the man added again, this time in a low voice.Vincent frowned. “Who is that person, Sir?” he wondered, curious.Alessandro sighed rather heavily. “They call him Kurokami, the shadow of Ryuujin-kai. No one knows his face, but every mess, every murder, always ends with his name whispered in the attack.”“Kurokami?” repeated Vincent with a confused murmur. ‘Does it have something to do with Nakamura?’“Yes,

  • Welcome to the End Game

    “Who are they and what do they have to do with me, with all this?” Vincent was confused. He was overwhelmed as he pulled out the threads that connected the names of the mafia on the whiteboard.“Milea, hang on a little longer,” said Vincent, who was still fiddling with his laptop.Vincent's phone rang. He glanced at it. Lorenzo's name was calling out on his screen. Shit! He thought.“Vin, where are you?” asked Lorenzo on the other line.Vincent said nothing, not wanting to tell Lorenzo where he was. He also changed the subject.“Tell your ex-wife, if she hurts my wife... I'll kill her,” Vincent threatened.“What do you mean?” Lorenzo had no idea what Vincent was talking about.“Valeria Del Piero, she's... your ex-wife, right?” said Vincent.Lorenzo was silent for a long time. Finally, Vincent hung up first. Now, Vincent knew Lorenzo's only weakness.***“Shit!” Milea complained. She held her breath as she stood in the corner of the dimly lit room. Her heart was racing, holding somethi
