2023-06-14 14:37:54Vincent was still thinking about everything Mr Eduardo had said. Suddenly a good idea came to him. He was going to redevelop his app. The one he had been working on.
Vincent took another look at the microchip model he had just bought this afternoon via an online shop. He would put a microchip of his creation in Milea's mobile phone system. The microchip would function as a radar to track Milea's whereabouts.
For hours, Vincent was still in front of his laptop. In fact, night had already turned into morning. Vincent hadn't slept all night. Today, he would test his microchip on Milea's mobile phone.
"Milea!" called Vincent. When they passed each other, Milea happened to have just come out of her room. She was about to head to the dining room to have breakfast with her father.
"Can I see your phone? Just for a moment," Vincent said, asking her permission.
"What for?" asked Milea. She didn't just hand over her personal belongings to Vincent. She had to know first, the purpose of Vincent borrowing her mobile phone.
Vincent forcibly took Milea's mobile phone, "It'll only take a minute. Well, it's done."
"What?" Milea widened her eyes in shock. Vincent quickly attached a microchip to Milea's mobile phone. Unnoticed by the owner of the phone.
Vincent went ahead. He said goodbye to Mr Eduardo because he had to go somewhere first before office hours. He said he had an urgent business to attend to.
Mr Eduardo gave him permission. So, Vincent hurried off. Alvin was also waiting for him in front of the house.
"Are you sure you want to go to that place first?" Alvin asked. He opened the car door for Vincent.
"Yes. I have to go there right away," said Vincent.
Alvin hurriedly drove away from Mr Eduardo's house to a place that Vincent had told him about.
Vincent opened the screen of his mobile phone that had been connected to the system on Milea's phone. It worked. When Milea was out of GPS range, the tracker managed to locate her. Even though the test was conducted at home.
A few minutes later, Vincent arrived at his destination. His former flat. "Sir, we've arrived. Should I accompany you inside?" Alvin asked.
"You can come with me, Al," Vincent said, inviting Alvin. Because he would also really need Alvin's help to carry his computer equipment.
Vincent and Alvin went to his old apartment, before going to his office. A few minutes later, Vincent got there and was greeted hysterically by some of the residents of the apartment. They couldn't believe Vincent's new look.
Vincent met the fierce landlord. Then, he paid in full all his rent arrears for five months. The lady did not move a muscle. Not only did he pay her in full, but he also gave her more, twice the amount. The lady gaped. She had no idea that Vincent could become one of the richest men in the country.
"Vincent, is it really you, son?" The lady who owned the apartment was suddenly nice to Vincent.
"Yes. It's me, Madam," Vincent replied convincingly.
"Let's move all my computer equipment," Vincent ordered Alvin.
"Yes, sir," Alvin hurried to fulfil his employer's order.
"Wait Vin!" the lady interrupted.
"Why don't they move them? You sit back and relax. You'll get your expensive clothes dirty." The landlady suggested and offered to help.
Vincent smiled. "Good idea," he thought.
She immediately ordered the men in her apartment to help move Vincent's things. That was just her modus operandi. The old lady just wanted to see what Vincent's fancy car looked like.
"What an amazing car. It must be very expensive," she marveled.
The lady was dazzled by Vincent's luxury car, which looked shiny to her eyes. In fact, she poked around in Vincent's car until the alarm went off.
Alvin immediately switched off the alarm. Suddenly, the lady was shocked to hear it. The security was so tight. One touch, and the car would immediately give a warning. How sophisticated!
Alvin was helped by some of Vincent's friends from his apartment to move all of Vincent's belongings to his car.
"Looking for attention," Vincent muttered.
Once that was done, Vincent headed off to his office. There were some important meetings at the office that he couldn't miss.
***
Vincent has recovered his computer equipment. His next step was to quietly develop his start-up business without Mr Eduardo's knowledge.
Vincent worked extra hard. He still dreams of becoming the number one app developer in the world. Hopefully, with the super power he has now, that dream can be achieved easily, he hopes.
Not only Vincent, Edward is now starting to move. Edward doesn't want to be left behind or lost to Vincent. The two rivals each made an application system on smartphones. Hopefully, there will be foreign investors who will look at the results of their hard work.
"Vin!" called Milea from outside her room.
Vincent heard Milea calling him. She approached his room. Vincent wondered, what was she doing in his room at this time of night? Vincent got up from his seat and opened the door for Milea.
"Starting tomorrow, I will be working at my father's company," Milea informed him.
"Oooh," Vincent replied briefly. Milea frowned because Vincent only said 'Oh'?
"Don't you like it when I work at my father's company?" Milea snapped. She was becoming prejudiced against Vincent.
"I like it," Vincent replied briefly.
"Like it?" Milea was stunned.
Vincent surmised that she would misunderstand him. That's not what Vincent meant. It's just that he was currently out of things to talk to Milea about because he was busy thinking about his app.
"Tomorrow, I'll be working with you. My room is also next door to yours. So, let's go together," Milea suggested.
"I see." Vincent's speech was suddenly stiff. Milea became a little annoyed because Vinecent's response was so cold to her.
"That's all. I just wanted to tell you that." Milea turned around and walked quickly away from Vincent. He was still standing there, thinking about what she had said.
Usually Vincent always thought fast when it came to computer programmes, IT technology, and all things related to digital science. However, when it came to women, he suddenly slowed down. Don't expect him to respond well. He's brain-dead.
Well, back to the issue of his app. Vincent started aggressively looking for some foreign investors via the internet. Until he found a start-up competition poster in the IT field. Maybe this is what Vincent is looking for right now.
Vincent signed up for the competition. This was the opportunity he had been waiting for. A prestigious event. A talent show for budding programmers in developing start-up businesses.
Edward did the same thing. After being fired from the company, he received financial support from his extended family. He started his own IT company. He said he would learn to be independent and be ready to compete with Vincent. That was his determination. He was so excited. He wanted to beat Vincent at anything.
"I knew Vincent would sign up for the start-up competition. That's a lot of guts," sneered Edward, who didn't like it. After learning that Vincent had signed up for the prestigious competition.
"I'll beat you, Vin," Edward vowed.

Not even Alvin was allowed in without urgent business from the President Director, Mr Eduardo.That afternoon, Milea came to Vincent's office. She came in a hurry. In fact, she seemed to have barged into Vincent's room without permission. Suddenly, she was stopped by several security guards, right in front of Vincent's office.What's going on? Why isn't Milea allowed in? She asked in surprise. Because Alvin ordered the security guards to tighten the security around the Vice President's room."Move aside!" ordered Milea rather fiercely at the two security guards standing in front of Vincent's office door."Sorry, Miss! Young Master Vincent does not allow you to enter his office," the security guards respectfully forbade in front of Milea."What did you say?" Milea was furious. She was rattling her waist in a fit of rage. She kept forcing her way into Vincent'

The Billionaire Revenge Cooperation Offer
"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.

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

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

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.

Surprises at the Lamborghini Parade
A few days later...It was a busy morning at the airport. An exclusive jet waited on the tarmac, preparing to take Valeria back to Italy. As a Mafia Lady, she was now not just a guest on a visit to Japan, but someone highly respected by the Ryuujin-kai, the organization that had once viewed her as a threat after Lorenzo.Near the steps of the airplane, Vincent stood, looking at Valeria with a look that was hard to interpret. “Why didn't that woman cry at all after Lorenzo died?”Milea elbowed Vincent's arm, “Don't look at her like that! She'll feel bad for you.”Vincent walked over to Valeria and shook her hand. “Are you sure you don't want to stay longer?” he asked.Valeria only smiled slightly after shaking hands with Vincent. “I have to go back. I have a lot of things to take care of there.”Vincent nodded slowly. He understood. Valeria was not a woman who could stay in one place for too long. Especially now, she would be leading her own clan and organization.Just before Valeria c
Save Ryuga!
Without warning, Vincent darted forward. He swatted away the gun in Lorenzo's hand quickly before the man could shoot him, then slammed into his face with a solid punch. Lorenzo was pushed back, but he quickly steadied himself and countered with a kick to Vincent's ribs.The impact was so strong that Vincent staggered, but he didn't care. Vincent advanced again, fighting with a burning fury. His hands and feet moved quickly, every punch and kick aimed at Lorenzo's vital points. However, Lorenzo was not an easy opponent. The Italian mafia man dodged deftly, retaliating with a knife slash that nearly caught Vincent in the neck.A fierce battle erupted in the middle of the dark harbour dock. The rain fell harder and harder, drenching the two men who were fighting it out there. In the distance, the sound of waves crashing against the concrete of the dock, while lights glow on the rippling black water.Then, there was a mechanical noise in the distance. Vincent looked away for a moment, an
The Decisive Ending
“VIN!” Milea screamed at the top of her lungs. She thought it was Vincent who was shot. It turned out to be...“Kazuto.” Vin quickly approached Kazuto who was now covered in blood. “Valeria, what are you doing?”“He deserved to die,” Valeria said in a cold, heartless tone.“You?” Vincent was stunned. “You're just like Lorenzo.”“Don't compare me to my ex-husband! I'm clearly more powerful and ruthless than him. So, don't mess with me!” Valeria sternly warned Vincent.A flash of fire a few minutes ago erupted from the muzzle of the gun controlled by Valeria. The sound of the shot echoed, breaking the eerie silence that had surrounded the place. Kazuto staggered. His eyes widened in disbelief as his chest felt hot and wet with fresh blood flowing from his bullet wound.“Kazuto, hold on!”“Vin ....”Vincent saw Kazuto's left hand trembling. He was trying to grab onto something he could not reach. Within seconds, his body lost its balance, plummeting to the ground with a low thud. The flo
The Last Battle
Ryuga and Lorenzo slammed into each other brutally. They were still duelling, seemingly more fiercely in the cramped submarine. There were no distractions, no way out of there. It was really just the two of them, locked in a deadly duel.“Don't fight me little boy!” shouted Lorenzo.“What, you said I was a little boy?” protested Ryuga. “I could kill you if I wanted to. You know that I'm one of the Ryuujin-kai, right?”Lorenzo laughed in response to Ryuga's statement. “Fool!” He lashed out with a flurry of punches at Ryuga.Ryuga parried Lorenzo's attack and retaliated with a knife thrust to the chest. Lorenzo dodged at the last second, but the tip of the knife still managed to tear into the side of his shoulder. Fresh blood flowed from Lorenzo's body.“You're always hunting others, Lorenzo,” Ryuga hissed. “But this time, you'll be our quarry. Give up your game and say goodbye.”Lorenzo grimaced, but he smiled anyway, maintaining his sly image. “Don't act as if you're better than me, R
Deadly Hard Choices
“This place will be destroyed.”“Milea, run!” Vincent shouted.Windows shattered, flames soared from the hallways, and walls began to crumble from the explosion. Kazuto's team had launched a full assault.Lorenzo smiled wryly. “This seems to be the decider.”Instantly, Lorenzo activated a small device in his hand and the entire base's security system began to react.“You'll all be locked in here,” Lorenzo said as he backed away slowly. “I have other business.”Milea looked angrily at Lorenzo. “You want to run away now?! After all this?!”Lorenzo just chuckled. “I'm not a fool, Milea. I know when to back off.”With one quick step, Lorenzo disappeared amidst the smoke and rubble.Meanwhile, Kazuto remained focused on Vincent, despite the growing chaos. “Don't think this is over, Vin!”Vincent didn't answer. He was already moving faster.With his remaining strength, Vincent kicked Kazuto's knee, making him wobble slightly. Milea took the opportunity to pull Vincent to his feet.“We have
Past Recorded Video
Ryuga appeared from the shadows, attacking with terrifying speed. Milea raised her arm to parry, but Ryuga's strength was too great. His punch slammed into Milea's chest, sending her flying backwards into an electrical panel.Blue lightning flashed through Milea's body, pain spreading throughout her nervous system. But she couldn't stop now. She had to fight back if she didn't want to be controlled by her cousin, Ryuga.Milea's hand moved to the gun kept at her waist, firing two bullets at Ryuga. Unfortunately, the shots missed. She had expected this to happen. So, she had been vigilant beforehand in dealing with this unexpected situation.DOR! DOR!Ryuga swatted her away with his knife, metal sparks clashing in the air. “You won't be able to conquer me, Milea.”“Really? Have you ever been in a karate or ninja club?” Milea joked.“Listen! I have no intention of killing you, Milea,” Ryuga assured her.Milea looked at him sharply. “Oh yeah? But it looks like you almost did. You've lost
Kazuto's Revenge for Vincent
Lorenzo smiled slightly as he watched the digital map of the world change. Kazuto's line of defence was crumbling, and the global network was now within his grasp.Lorenzo looked at Vincent who stood silently beside him. “You finally understand, Vin. This world isn't about who's right and wrong. It's about who's in control.”Vincent didn't answer at all. His hands were still on the console, his gaze blank. He had just destroyed the defence system of his old friend, Kazuto.But, inside Vincent, something was still not right. It was like there was another piece of memory that had yet to be revealed. His memories of the past with Kazuto were still ringing in his mind.Then, suddenly, a red notification flashed on his screen.[Override Detected. Protocol 0 Activated.]Lorenzo squinted. “What is this?” he asked in shock as he looked at his screen.Before Lorenzo could react, the system began to change. The world map returned to blue. And the voice they heard next made Vincent's heart race.
Cyber War Between Vincent, Kazuto, and Lorenzo
Milea looked at him in shock. “You... should be dead! Didn't Vin shoot you?”Lorenzo just chuckled. “The bulletproof vest saved me. Remember! Kazuto is still watching us. He thinks you killed me.”“I see.” Now, Milea understood. They had all planned it while she was Kazuto's hostage.A few minutes later, Vincent, Lorenzo, Valeria, Nakamura, and Ryuga had gathered in the living room of the Nakamura residence. Meanwhile, Milea was safely in her room. Her uncle had reserved a special room for her.“I don't want Milea to get involved again,” Nakamura said. “Can we do it?”“Of course, Mr Nakamura. I don't want it to happen again either. But, Kazuto already knows everything about my wife. Right now, he must be hunting Milea,” Vincent replied.“Isn't Milea tough enough to be in this team?” Valeria interjected. “I've heard a lot about her, Vin.”Vincent only smiled briefly in response. “She is. A tough woman who I love very much.”“At least you recognise the greatness of your own wife, Vin.”
Don't Choose, Milea!
“Lorenzo?” Milea widened her eyes in surprise at Lorenzo's arrival.“What are you doing here?” asked Lorenzo flatly. “Where's Vin and Ryuga?”“They're still in the warehouse,” Milea said under her breath.“I see.” Lorenzo understood. That's why he waited for the right time to appear before Milea.The harbour that night was so quiet, only the sound of the waves crashing and the night breeze hitting Milea's frightened face on the run. Her breathing was ragged, her body filled with adrenaline as she tried to avoid the pursuit of Kazuto's men.Milea didn't expect to meet Lorenzo there. Just as she was about to move, a gunshot suddenly rang out, a bullet almost hitting her shoulder. She gasped, her body lurching backwards.However, before Milea could fall, a strong hand pulled her to the side, bringing her body behind a metal container. Milea gasped for air, her eyes widening at the sight of Lorenzo before her.“You?” she whispered in shock.“Shut up! There are snipers around,” Lorenzo sai
