AT THE JEWELRY STORE."Boss, should we turn around? Our men haven’t called to say anything today; it’s unusual," Santiago pulled over."Keep driving; I need to drop by immediately. We aren’t waiting for long," Santiago said, returning to driving. They got to the jewelry store, and everything was normal. "I told you everything is fine; we didn’t need to come; can we go back now? I noticed you’ve been paranoid since that incident with Brandon’s men," Torillio said. He noticed a light on the door knob."Stand down, Santiago," Torllio whispered."PST," a silent gunshot went through Santiago’s heart; it was too late to lay low as Torillio commanded. The shooting started sporadically inside the jewelry store. Torillio wasn’t armed, and it was unusual. He found his way sneakily into his office and took his gun. He returned to the mall, but they were already moving."Ten men down plus the main aim!" One of their attackers yelled into the walkie-talkie with him as they frowned down on the atta
AT RAD’S HIDEOUT."Tell you boss, I am ready to do what he wants," Stephanie writhed. "Have you decided on how you want to die? Last time you spoke, I remembered that was the parting gift he has for you," they responded with snarling laughter."Please just call him; I can’t stay here any longer," Stephanie pleaded. She has gone a few days without eating. She was scared they would harm her if she took any of the meals they brought for her. "Fine, I will call him; make sure you’re on track this time or you'll see what would happen otherwise," they replied. One of them stepped out to call RAD’s top man. "Come, she’s ready to talk; you can inform the boss," he reported sharply."I will soon be there with you; I have been trying to reach the boss, but he hasn’t been picking up," he replied."Wait, then don’t show up here; we can’t make her suspect that you’re not the real RAD.""I am almost there already; don’t worry, I will set things straight. The last time I spoke with the boss, he was
RAD got a text from the real boss telling him to meet up with some women, but he needed to be careful. He sent the location and the time he was to meet her."Guys, I think the boss just replied, but it’s not about Stephanie; he probably hasn’t seen her," he said to his men. "What does he want us to do?" they asked, ready to attack."Nothing big; he wants us to pick some women up," he replied. RAD showed them the location, and they left the glass house vicicnity to the said location. It was on the outskirts of the Philippines. "Why would someone be here? We still haven't seen her, and it’s almost midnight," RAD complained."You better get used to it; your life is on the line, and anytime you snooze, you lose it," one of the men threatened."Say less; I know what I signed up for. I have been trying to get more information, at least the woman’s picture, but nothing is forthcoming; he’s not replying to all my questions," RAD replied. "I saw some women there in that white old Peu
Brandon went to his apartment immediately he left the glass house. Madrigal was first to welcome him back. “How did it go?” he asked. “It went well, my discussion with my father wasn’t concluded though,” Brandon added, Madrigal joined him inside the house. “You did a good job with Torillio, the bastard called me,” Brandon aside to Estrellia. “I want things to keep going on this way, where is the file I requested for?” Brandon asked Madrigal.“Gotten sir and secure, it wasn’t too hard to get past the security, it could be because she wasn’t around, how far with the arrest? We haven’t heard any news yet,” Madrigal replied. “Jordan Vera-Dona is a principled man, I don’t think he’s one to keep such a thing away form the face of the public,” Marcellus contributed. “Hailey is a high profiled criminal and she’s been declared wanted by the police, there’s a possibility they hide it,” Nathalie responded. “No, something is definitely wrong,” Brandon retorted. “You mean she bribed
AT BRANDON'S MANSION"With a man, that’s all I can tell; I have to go now; time is not on my side," Esmeralda giggled.She collected the bottle fomr Vanessa and drank directly form it. " Am I doing the right thing?" Vanessa asked tiredly. "It depends on you, you’ll sufer for whatever descisison you make so you better chose wisely," Esmeralda responded drunkingly. "You’re usisng me but in another way, you’re still honest with me, how do you do tat?" Vanessa laughed. She colecetd the bottle form Esmeralada and drank from it too. "It’s easy, I am always true to myself, I have nothing to hide," she responded. She kicked her car. "Opps I almost forgot, please wiat Madrigal wants to see you before you leave," Vanessa uttered. She had forgotten. "That’s weird, why would he want to see me, I have to go now but I should be able to spare some minutes," Vanessa got out of he car. She called Madrigal and he followed her rightwaya. "Bye Esmeralada, I don’t think you should rive th
AT THE GLASS HOUSE. After the doctor’s unwelcoming news about Grandma Pillar's health, they all rushed to the hospital to see her. "She’s strong and still fighting for her life despite her old age and previous health history," the doctor commented. He urged Don Soriano to go home and rest. He was the only one left in the hospital aside from Andallio, who stayed back in the house."I know she’s fighting; she raised me to be strong; she's made many mistakes, but I still love my mother," Don Soriano replied. "What about Stephanie? Is she fit to talk?" he asked actively. "I don’t think so, sir; she’s still receiving treatments.""Why? That’s absurd, come tot hink of it, she walked in this house herself, how come she’s still not okay?" Don Soriano asked curiously. He was surprised to find out that she would not be able to talk to them or interact with them. "She was beaten and traumatized there; obviously starved, sir, it would take a while before she could recuperate," the doct
"Boss, we are at her house, and it looks scattered. Someone got here before us," RAD’s men reported. They were at Hailey’s house to get the secret information she claimed to have stolen when she was little. RAD dragged Hailey by her hair angrily when he was given the message. "Are you fooling us? Your house has been ransacked when my men got there," RAD yelled. "They should check for the safe; they must have taken the documents I hid; there’s no point," Hailey managed to responded. Writhing from the pain. "You better be sure this time!" RAD threatened. He called his men back and told them to find the safe. "Why are you acting this way, RAD? The only time I failed you was with Brandon; I was loyal and kept to my words when it was your own plan to kill my husband!" Hailey blurted angrily.Fake RAD was shocked to find out that his boss, Real RAD, was the one who killed President Chavez. "Just shut up; you know the way I operate; take this woman inside!" he commanded. "No! They
Brandon was discussing with Fredrick when an emergency call from Estrellia came in. “Hold on I need to get this,” Brandon replied.“Boss, some men have been spotted on the site? Should we attack them?” Estrellia called out to Brandon. “Check who are they? I don’t want the same mistake that happened with Torillio, I don’t regret it though,” Brandon responded. “They are afar off, but they are armed and they’re using a drone should we attack now?” Estrellia reported. “No, allow them, I need to know whose men they are,” Brandon commanded. “Should we proceed with the exchange or halt? What if they attck us first?” “BE ready to defend the exchange will push through,” Brandon responded. He returned ot Fredrick. “Where was i? ohh I rmebeer I was so happy to see you I thought we would never meet again after that show of death you put me and my son thorugh,” Brandon arced. “I am not here to bater words with you Brandon, where is my sister?” Fredrikc asked angrily. “She’s hee
