AT BRANDON’S MANSION"Yes! I am not over her, so deal with it!""You’re really admitting that to my face?" Vanessa asked ragingly. "Even after all she did to you?" Vanessa added."Is it that hard to love me? and Esmeralda, what’s with her?""Nothing; just cooperate with me," Brandon replied. "I hate you!" Vanessa yelled. "Don’t touch me," she shouted at Brandon’s men. They walked Vanessa in. "Boss, I have bad news.""What is it?" "Randall, he’s dead; we were ambushed, and it got too late to save him.""Just shut up and get out! A simple mistake from you all, how on earth will you underestimate and trust someone? Go Now! Find Torillio! No, I’ll call him; I am not scared of him." "Enough of these people testing me and my patience!" Brandon yelled.Brandon put a call through to Torillio. He warned him and threatened to take down his men in exchange for just one that he took. "Sir Brandon, I think we should look into this; it might be a setup," Estrellia urged. "Yeah, a set-u
AT Jordan Vera Dona’s house.Kimberly was unrestful, raveling to and fro as she pondered the response she would get. Working on not losing her guard and keeping it uptight, she sent some spies to check out her uncle; he received a highly profiled tip that was investigated. The maid returned. "Ma'am, I almost got caught, but I escaped," she uttered terrifically as she walked in."You’re here; what did you get? I'll pay you handsomely.""He received a call, and he’s up to arrest someone; I couldn’t find out who it was; it was a message on his phone; he also instructed his men to set the car, they will leave soon.""Is he carrying out the operation alongside the government orders or on his own?" Kimberly asked. "On his own, ma’am, he’s going with just his trusted man; the person he is going to arrest must be high profile," the maid responded lightly. "That’s better. I can easily tell my men to track them down no matter where they go," "Ahhh, i have someone in mind,"Kimberly calle
At the glass house. Brandon’s phone rang out of the blue, and he paused his discussion with Don Soriano to receive the call. "Esmeralda? What’s up?" he asked,"Call your men off now! Don’t go against Torillio, at least not yet," Esmeralda warned. "He killed Randall; I am sure you must have heard that too." Brandon replied rudely. "Yes, believe me, if you strike now, it won’t be worth it; take your time, trust me," Esmeralda replied. "Thanks, but no," Brandon replied coldly and ended the call. He returned to the sitting room. "Who was that?" his father asked. "Esmeralda," he replied, sitting on the couch next to Don Soriano. "Before the little incident that happened to me, I wanted you to get along well with Esmeralda; why did you go for Kimberly?""It’s personal; why do you want me to go for Esmeralda?" Brandon asked. "You are one of the five; soon your enemies will rise; all these ones you’re seeing are little," Don Soriano arced."Are you threatening me?""No, my son, I w
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
