“No…” Kate screamed at the top of her voice as she took her hand off the young man who was holding her and ran to her younger brother.“ Felix…!”Sharon froze with her eyes widened in disbelief. She couldn't tell if she should run or pray for the earth to open and swallow her up.On the other hand, fear gripped Antonio, who was still pointing the gun toward Felix. Suddenly, the gun fell off his hand to the ground.“Sir, let's escape. The police are approaching this room." One of the guards who was holding Sharon announced and quickly freed her.With haste, they ran out of the room, following different angles in the house until they found a way out.Unfortunately, the other guards had already taken Gregory away from the mansion to a safer place.There was a tunnel for escape that led to the outside of the mansion. That was the escape road that Gregory's guards took him to and escaped with him from the police.The underground police officers heard the gunshot and ran towards the room the
Antonio died miserably without being touched by anyone. Perhaps he thought he was going to live on earth forever. That's why he did evil things without thinking twice. He killed Felix, who was once a gang member. Mike and Henry were arrested together with some of Gregory's guards. Unfortunately, two people remained whom the police were still searching for. Mr. Smith and Gregory. Shockingly, when Gregory escaped from Mr. Smith's mansion, he blocked Antonio's number in case the police caught Antonio and tried to reach him through Antonio's phone, they wouldn't be able to do that. Whereas, Gregory and Mr. Smith arranged between themselves to meet in a certain location where Mr. Smith's private jet was always parked. They entered the private jet, intending to fly away from their country to a faraway land where no one would be able to predict where they were. They knew that what they did was unlawful, and they wouldn't want to stay and face the consequences of their evil deed
“Divorce?” Aidan said with shock and lowered his gaze to the old woman sitting before him.“ Are you kidding me?” Mrs. Emily comfortably sat with an arrogant face. Judging from her looks, one can easily tell that she is a wicked woman.She was the mother-in-law of Aidan, and she was seeking a divorce for her beloved daughter, Kate.“You heard well,” she smirked.“ Poor bastard with no plans for the future.” she cursed with gritted teeth.Aidan was speechless to see this woman raining insults on him after what he had done for her family.What suddenly came over her? Is this a prank to see his reaction? Or is she drunk this morning? Which one? Aidan was lost in thoughts as he stiffened in one place as he gaze at his mother-in-law. “Do you think I'm joking? Huh?” She began.“ My daughter is presently a CEO. And her company is among the big companies here in Nasa city.” she exclaimed and rolled her eyes.He was more confused to see the seriousness in Mrs. Emily's words. At first, he though
Immediately, Kate took off the ring on her finger. She took out a check paper that was already inside her back pocket and threw it with the ring to Aidan's face.This made him burn in anger as if he should punch her in the face, but it was unlawful to beat a woman.But if it was a man who made him angry like this, he would have ended up in the hospital.Aidan held his fist tightly, his mind changed times, and finally, he sighed and made a wry smile. He picked up the check-up, agreed to divorce, and left the villa. “Bravo!” Mrs. Emily jested as she clapped mockingly, but she was furious at the check Aidan had received from her daughter.Without uttering a word, Aidan maintained a smiling face and turned around to leave. He suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned around and gazed at Kate and then at her mother.He giggled and shrugged before he continued to the door. Aidan wished this could just turn into a dream, but reality had taken over.“Kate,” Mrs. Emily called out and stood up
Trekking down the expressway, Aidan wasn't aware that Felix called and reported him to Kate.A call suddenly interrupted Aidan from thinking about his miserable life. He stood by the roadside and brought out his phone and picked up the call. The caller happened to be a man, who was one of Aidan's company managers. Aidan addressed the man as “president D”, but his name was Donald.The man also respected Aidan, and he addresses him as “young master”.“Young master,” Mr. Donald called out.“Good day.” he greeted.“Good day, president D. How have you been doing?” Aidan's voice echoed on the phone.“I'm fine, young master,” he responded, and Aidan nodded as though Mr. Donald was seeing his reaction.“How may I help you?” Aidan finally asked.Mr. Donald explained,“ Young master, I wanted to ask if the contract should be sent to the KW company.” On hearing the company's name, Aidan went silent for a few minutes as he hesitated if he should send this contract to this company or not.The KW co
In the evening, they arrived at the party after a long ride, however, at the gate of the party place, Aidan met his ex-wife, and also another young man with her.Immediately Kate set eyes on Aidan, she frowned and began wondering what he had come to do there. He should realize that such places are not for people like him.Maybe, he still thinks they are still married, which gave him the guts to come there. He should wake up from his sleep.He should realize that they are not on the same level. She isn't the Kate he knew before, she's now a changed person, and he should know that.Again, Kate was angry because Aidan attacked her younger brother for no reason. Or maybe he was angry at her, which made him do that.Kate couldn't tell what was going on with Aidan. They just got divorced, and he is already harming her family members. He shouldn't try that nonsense! Aidan smiled to himself after seeing the smirk on Kate's face when their eyes met. He knew she was unsettled and shocked to s
At the party, Kate was a bit excited because she was a big fan of the girl who owns the Charles' family company. The shocking thing was that Kate wasn't aware that she had met this girl at the gate. She sat as she patiently waited for the arrival of the girl, so she could meet her in person.This was the first time she was going to partner with this big company, and she felt like a dream come true. It will be a great pleasure to partner with them and earn more revenue for her company.As she sat with Antonio by her side, her phone began ringing, and she quickly unzipped her purse and took out the phone.A smile curved her pink lips after setting eyes on the caller ID. She stood up to go outside, so she could pick up the call.The reason was that the blaring of the sound from the party wouldn't allow her to hear what the caller would say, and it was an important call she wouldn't want to ignore.“ Hey, where are you going?” Antonio held her hand from behind, and she abruptly stopped.
Everything was lost within a day. Everything… She divorced her husband, and got a last contract from the Fredericks' company; now her name wasn't found in the Charles' family business partners. What a sad day!Kate's body went cold as tears trickled down her cheeks. Everything on her became heavy to carry.Antonio, on the other hand, was short of words, there was nothing he could do to comfort her now. This was her last hope, and it slipped off her hand.“ Take me home,” her low voice echoed in Antonio's ears as she felt on his body, looking lifeless.“ Be strong, and take it as part of life, babe,” he encouraged her, but words of encouragement weren't her problem at that moment.“ I said take me home!” she shouted at Antonio, and he winced inside as if she wanted to punch him.“ I will do just that,” he assured her and placed his left hand around her waist, and took her right hand and placed it across his neck. He began walking her to the exit. She was so weak that she found it hard
