"I didn't mean it like that, Mr Eduardo," Vincent tried to explain."So you deliberately destroyed your work? Didn't you prepare a backup?" Mr Eduardo was astonished."I couldn't, sir. I had to recreate the application rather than have it end up in a mess. Besides, the programme had already been read by someone else. I don't want anyone else to know the raw programme," Vincent explained again.Mr Eduardo understood. He understood completely and was very supportive of the decision Vincent had made. According to Mr Eduardo, Vincent was too brave to take that risk. Salute to him."Vin, from now on just use my company. It will also be yours one day. You don't have to sneak around doing things behind my back anymore," Mr Eduardo scolded him in a sarcastic tone.Vincent smiled briefly. In the end, he was found out too. At first, he wanted to hide it from Mr Eduardo. Now, Mr Eduardo was suggesting that Vincent develop all his application programmes for his company."Just do as you please. I
"Vin, have you reconsidered my offer from yesterday?" Edmund asked over the phone."Yes, I have reconsidered it. I will accept your offer," said Vincent, who had already agreed with Edmund."Good. Let's reschedule our meeting later. I'll get the money ready for you right away," said Edmund. He smiled with satisfaction after hearing that Vincent would sign the agreement with his company.After contacting Edmund, Vincent went to meet the programmers that Alvin had prepared. He took a look at how the programmers worked. There was nothing doubtful at first glance. Maybe it was just Vincent's feelings. Because he was not used to working in a group. He was too comfortable working alone and was very careful in recruiting employees.The briefing began. Vincent briefly explained the concept of the marketplace programme that he would develop to the team. After the discussion, the programmers immediately occupied their respective positions. They started working. Meanwhile, he was going to meet E
"Excuse me!" Vincent said rather awkwardly."Vin! Come in, what a coincidence," Mr Eduardo invited Vincent into his office."Sir, why are you in such a hurry?" Vincent protested. Let's get straight to the topic. Coincidentally, they were discussing the arranged marriage. Perfect timing for Vincent, he thought.Milea glanced sarcastically at her fiancé-to-be. She had guessed that Vincent would do the same thing as her. Protest loudly. Because the ignorant man must have been annoyed by the sudden news."I don't think it's a rush. I've been planning it for a long time," Mr Eduardo reasoned."But sir... you know that I've been playing with projects lately," Vincent reasoned."Yes, that I know. Have you forgotten, Vin? The condition you have to fulfil for me is to marry my daughter," said Mr Eduardo, reminding Vincent again.Damn! It was true. Vincent was very upset as he recalled his conversation with Mr Eduardo the other day."You can't do that. Why didn't you ask me first?" Milea was st
Ever since Vincent tightened the office rules with his app programme, many employees have been against the new policies. They disagree, feel burdened because they are constantly monitored, uncomfortable working, and so on.There were so many reasons that the employees told Vincent. In essence, they complained."Mr Vice President, you should remove the policy. Because honestly, we feel pressured by your new rules.""That's right, Mr Vice President!""What the hell are you guys doing? Respect your superiors!" scolded Alvin, who was defending Vincent in front of the protesting employees.If it is not stopped, there will be a lot of protests against Vincent at this time. In fact, he made this new breakthrough to increase their productivity at work. Trigger their enthusiasm to be more disciplined about time. In fact, his expectations did not match the reality.Employee complaints have brought down Vincent's current position. Danger. He could be threatened with leaving the company. If their
Early in the morning, Mr Eduardo calls all the employees in the office who were involved in the massive demonstration yesterday. Those who deliberately wanted to bring Vincent down from his position had lined up neatly to face the President Director. They were just waiting to see what punishment Mr Eduardo would give them for their actions.Vincent immediately followed the President Director's room after being told by Alvin that Mr Eduardo would take firm action against the irresponsible elements. It's bad!"Who told you to protest yesterday?" asked Mr Eduardo to one of the fat men.The fat man adjusted his glasses, which had slipped off when Mr Eduardo approached him."Nothing, Mr President," the man said shakily."Just confess. We already have the evidence. You were all paid to bring Vincent down. Isn't that right?" Mr Eduardo confirmed it again as he cornered them one by one. Until the fat man stuttered and broke out in a cold sweat at his temples."It's true, sir. I don't know," t
Vincent is still investigating the secret documents hidden by Mr Eduardo. He didn't expect his benefactor to be directly involved in the unfortunate incident ten years ago that killed his parents.Vincent couldn't understand how the culprit could be Mr Eduardo. His whole body was frozen, weak, and his spirit had faded after learning Mr Eduardo's true identity."Impossible," Vincent thought. "This is crazy!"All this time, Mr Eduardo had been regarded as Vincent's saviour. The middle-aged man had done so much for him. So that he could be as great as he is nowadays. He was devastated to learn the truth.The person Vincent respected most like his own biological father, his future father-in-law, was the prime suspect in the head-on collision that killed both his parents. He pondered. He deeply regretted it now."Stupid!" Vincent blamed himself. "Why did it only come to light now?"So, that's why Mr Eduardo felt fully responsible for Vincent. The old man had unintentionally made Vincent an
Vincent left Mr Eduardo's residence this evening. He immediately drove his luxury car, then went somewhere. Damn! He looked in the rear view mirror, and a black van was following him."Mr Eduardo is still watching me," Vincent growled. He knew that the car was following him. It must be Mr Eduardo's men, he thought.Vincent picked up his wireless earphones. He immediately contacted Alvin even while focusing on driving. "Al, take my place now. They're still watching me.""Yes, sir," Alvin agreed. Vincent and Alvin had worked together before.Alvin, who had been following Vincent, immediately overtook between Vincent's car and Mr Eduardo's men. He tricked him and Vincent managed to escape the pursuit of the men in the car."Bingo!" Vincent accelerated his vehicle. Maximum speed to get to the destination quickly.Vincent was going somewhere. His parents' house was unfit for use, empty, and looked worn out. The house looked like it was about to collapse, the building was fragile as if one
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
The next day Vincent went to see Edmund at the New York embassy. Edmund was not the only one there. However, other important officials were also gathered there to discuss something with Vincent, related to the illegal organisation, Black Knight, which he had destroyed.Vincent fulfilled the invitation of high-ranking officials from various countries. They will also discuss cooperation between countries. Vincent's opportunity to spread his wings in the digital business world was even wider.Vincent's name was increasingly recognised around the world. Many high-ranking officials from various countries want to work with him.Vincent has also successfully developed an application to help the police. Thanks to his success, he got richer and became the number 1 most influential person in the world."How about it Vin, are you interested in joining one of them?" asked Edmund. He approached Vincent during the luncheon."For now, I'm not going to accept any offers. I'll just go on vacation with
"Vin is still inside." Milea was hysterical and she asked Victor and Alvin for help."Al, please save him!" she begged while crying.Victor and Alvin understood Milea's feelings at the moment. They both lowered their gaze. Apparently, Vincent was hopeless. The Black Knight headquarters had exploded. Destroyed to pieces."No! Are you guys just going to give up and not save him?" Milea fumed."It's not like that. Calm down, Milea," Victor calmed her down. Milea was in hysterics and was banging lightly on Victor's arm."Help him, please ...." Milea stood limply. Her leg that had been hit by hot lead was now in pain again."Miss Milea, you should have your leg treated first," Alvin distracted her."No need! I'll go back to save Vin if you guys won't help him," Milea insisted. She walked back to the scene.Victor grabbed Milea's hand and prevented her from leaving. "Vin will survive," he said, comforting Milea.Milea didn't believe him until she proved it to herself. She left on hobbling l
Three hours earlier...Vincent had prepared a plan with Victor and Alvin before entering the Black Knight headquarters. Victor and Alvin had placed explosives around the Black Knight headquarters. At that time, Vincent had difficulty penetrating Black Knight's security system.After several times observing how Black Knight's security system worked and watching the headquarters, Vincent found a gap in their weaknesses. He crossed the line and managed to break into the security system. This was very favourable for Vincent.Vincent shared it with Alvin. Now, it was Alvin who Vincent entrusted to rummage through his system without Black Knight's knowledge.Soon, the Black Knight will appear on the surface of the world with all its destruction. So that the world knows the rottenness of the black organisation in action. Vincent could be sure that it would happen one day. At this moment, the time will soon come.Vincent would become the Black Knight's decoy. He would turn himself in accordin
It's bad! Milea is being held hostage by the Black Knight. At first, Vincent was going to take Xalvador's life. However, seeing the Black Knight pointing a gun right at Milea's head, made Vincent undo his intentions."Let her go!" Vincent ordered."I won't. This woman will die at the hands of the Black Knight," said Xalvador."Give up, Vin!" Xalvador said again. He was eager to see Vincent surrender and submit to the Black Knight."Give up, you say?" Vincent was still optimistic. He could definitely eradicate the Black Knight to the end."Don't do it Vin!" Milea warned. "Don't listen to what they say!""From the beginning, the Black Knight has been after you. You're one of us. Even if I don't get that genius brain of yours, you will be forever bound to us," said Xalvador."Hah, seriously! Tied up with you guys?" sneered Vincent, mocking him."Yes. Join us, and the two of us will rule the world. What do you think?" Xalvador offered.It was a very attractive offer. Unfortunately, Vincen
Doctor Sergio's brain transplant surgery has come to a successful conclusion. It was almost perfect, without the slightest margin for error.A few hours after the operation, Big Boss Black Knight had recovered. Now the forty-eight-year-old man was reborn in a new body."Welcome back Mister Xalvador," greeted one of Black Knight's top brass to Mr X in the VVIP ward of the hospital where he was being treated.Mr X was sitting in a wheelchair with his back to the Black Knight officials who had come to see him face-to-face with the Big Boss.Mr X, who was looking at the cityscape through the glass window of his hospital room, got up from his seat. Then, he turned around and looked at his subordinates one by one.Mr X, whose name was Xalvador, was an American man of Spanish descent. He was well-built, his posture was towering, and he was handsome despite his age. The man had been asleep for a long time in a special room with a low temperature below average.Before being resurrected, Xalvad
Edmund immediately took Vincent to the hospital. There, Victor and Alvin had already prepared a plan to distract him.That night, when Vincent entered the operating room, Victor and Alvin were already on guard. They disguised themselves as resident doctors and swapped Vincent for someone else's corpse.Victor and Alvin planned to transfer Vincent to another hospital without Edmund's knowledge after the operation. They rushed Vincent into the ambulance, a few hours after the operation.After the operation, sad news came to Edmund. A doctor told him that Vincent could not be saved during the operation. Edmund was so shocked to hear it.Not only that, at the same time, Edmund was also told by the doctor treating Claudia. His niece had suffered a heart attack and breathed her last about five minutes ago."No way!" regretted Edmund. He became discouraged after hearing the news that two people he loved so much had left him.Edmund regretted his ac
Edmund immediately asked Milea how Claudia was. She looked panicked after the shooting. He also hasn't had a chance to see his niece's condition. Because Victor had taken her to the hospital.Edmund was Claudia's only family. Of course she was so worried about her niece's condition."Claudia is being examined by the doctor, Mr Edmund. Be patient, they'll let us know soon," Milea said soothingly to Edmund.Not long after, one of the resident doctors informed them that Claudia had to be operated on immediately. They had to inform the family first so that they could follow up immediately.Edmund allowed it. No matter what happens, Claudia must live. He asked the doctor to save his niece immediately.Edmund looked desperate. Milea and Victor can understand that. Edmund is still traumatised after losing his brother, Edward. Now he has to add Claudia to the mix.Speaking of Vincent, Victor said that Vincent would soon clean up this mess."Do you trust him now?" Milea began to doubt Vincent.
Black Knight ordered Vincent to make a hostage swap in the early evening with Edmund. He couldn't help but think that he himself was being used as Black Knight's accomplice."You must take Doctor Sergio alive. Understood?" said Mr X to Vincent.'Hah, crazy bastard!' Vincent cursed to himself.If that was the case, then Vincent wanted to go see Milea first. He wanted to make sure it was true that she was their hostage. Or was it just a trick of the Black Knight to deceive him."I want to see my fiancée. Where is she hiding?" Vincent asked.The Black Knight had guessed, Vincent would definitely do it. Moreover, the stakes were the woman he loved so much. He could do nothing but resignedly accept the situation. Black Knight's strategy worked. Vincent would definitely submit to his orders.After meeting Mr X at his headquarters, Vincent was led by Black Knight's bodyguards to meet Milea and her two female friends somewhere.BRAAAAKKKK!The metal door of a secret room was opened. Vincent s
A man blindly beat Claudia to a pulp. Was he out of his mind? Milea couldn't just ignore it. This violated the code of conduct for violence against a woman.Milea ran up to the man and retaliated against his behaviour towards Claudia. She hit him with all her might."Die, you loser!" Milea screamed. She hit him again relentlessly.Milea hit the man with the wooden block in her hand. That man should feel the consequences, she thought. She beat the man mercilessly.Not only his body was the target of Milea's fury. She also hit the man's precious heirlooms with thick wood. The blows were so hard and enough to render the man helpless."YOU'RE DEAD!" Milea screamed. "THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR A ROTTEN MAN LIKE YOU!""Aaaarrrrrgggghhh!" moaned the shameless man in pain.Thank goodness! Milea was relieved after hitting him. She still wanted to beat him up again, it was so vengeful to see Claudia being beaten up mercilessly by that evil man."Listen, you idiot, I can be more cruel if you still
