He leaves their phones there. The same with the gun which belonged to one of them. He throws away all the bullets inside, and drops the gun on that man’s chest. And then he heads back to his car. Only after he gets into his car, he take off his mask. “Shit, I should have let him use me as his personal driver,” he whines. After chilling there for some time with one cigarette, he starts the car and drives back to the town. Meanwhile, Victors is still looking so alert in his house. He gets out of his room sometimes, to make sure everything is fine. And gets back to his room again and locks himself inside. He has done it a few times, despite the fact he is feeling so tired and sleepy. He forces himself to stay awake no matter how bad he needs to sleep. And then... “Drrrtt! Drrrtt!!” His phone is vibrating in silent mode. The room is already illuminated by the light from outside, while Victor is sleeping right behind the door. He tries to reach for his phone in half awake. ♫♫ Tuut
She just stands there, across the pharmacy shop where she should be working. She feels somewhat reluctant to get back working there, since the shop is still owned by Lucas’s family. “Emma?!” one of her coworkers greets her from behind. “Oh? Hi, Stephanie!” Emma replies. “They said you are no longer working with us. Did you get another job somewhere else?” “Ah, yeah!” Emma replies curtly with an unsure feeling. And then, her former coworker leaves her, telling that she doesn’t want to be late for work. Meanwhile, Emma is affirming herself to decline her intention to get back to work at the place. She looks at the keys she is holding for a moment. And then, she calls for the taxi, intending to get back to Victor’s house. Despite the fact they are no longer a married couple anymore, she still believes she has the right to live at that house. When she gets to that house, it turns out Mrs. Greta is still there taking care of her little garden. And so, that old lady next door greets
As they force getting in and standing behind Victor, the elevator gives an overload alarm. Now they start looking at each other, waiting for someone to get out of the elevator. But those two female employees, Abigail and Sarah, act so ignorant with what’s going on. “Hey, we are not going anywhere if there’s no one to leave the elevator,” says someone from the back. “Oh, nice! You have a better brain than the others. Why are you still here then?” replies Abigail. That guy doesn’t have the courage to answer, since his position in the company is lower than her. So are everyone else inside that elevator. None of them dare to reply to her word. However, none of them intends to leave the elevator either. Suddenly, Sarah secretly knocks Nancy’s elbow from behind, aiming to hit her ulnar nerve. “Aww!” Nancy has no choice but to let go of the document. She is shocked, feeling a kind of short circuit electric current on her elbow. Those documents scatter on the floor, right at the elevato
But Nancy is still looking so reluctant. After all, she has something she needs to do with the documents she is currently holding. “I’d like to help you to get there. But I have to deliver this document to my supervisor. He needs these documents since he is going to attend the meeting too,” she declines politely. “So, why don’t you just take them to the meeting room and meet with him there?” “No, I’m afraid he is going to yell at me there.” “It’s okay, I’ll try to explain your situation to your supervisor later,” Victor holds her hand and takes her with him to the elevator. Now Nancy is getting even more timid. She is so sure that Victor is having a higher position than her supervisor, considering how confident he is in promising that he can explain everything to her supervisor. “Um, why don’t you just follow me to take this document first to my supervisor, and then you can go with him later to the meeting,” she suggests. “Oh, okay then!” He then follows Nancy to deliver the do
Meanwhile, the meeting room is a bit frenzied, since they’ve been waiting quite long enough. Especially Oliver, who becomes impatient because Nancy hasn’t delivered the documents he asked. He already knows that his new boss is his former colleague in college. But he has left a bad impression since his first meeting with Victor at the restroom yesterday. He couldn't afford any risk to leave another bad impression in front of his new boss two days in a row. He starts to be so awry, that even one wrong move would end up in his resignation. After all, he has heard about the resignation of some executives right after Victor’s appointment as the new President. “That damn useless timid girl. What takes her so long?” he grumbles. His awry face catches Abigail’s attention, his superior who happens to be sitting beside him. Of course, she knows what’s in Oliver’s mind, because she is the one who held Nancy down before at the elevator. But somehow, she just plays ignorant on Oliver. “Are yo
Due to the resignation of the general manager for the Marketing Department yesterday, Mrs. Emilia has to take care of this department since she is The Vice President for Marketing. At least, until Viona finds the next general manager to fill that position. Despite the fact Mrs. Emilia has the same level with Viona as The Vice President, she knows that Viona has stronger influence in the company. Not to mention that Viona is the one that Charles William trusts the most. And so, Mrs. Emilia starts the introduction of the new President of Counterbrand. She deliberately makes it short, since she doesn’t like to repeat what Viona had delivered before in introducing Victor to the other executives yesterday. In the end, she only tells everyone about the name, and about Victor’s vision for Counterbrand in general. But then, Victor halts her by offering a seat and whispers to her. “Can I have the chance for a moment to say something before we start the meeting?” “Oh? Sure! The meeting is a
However, Mrs. Emilia doesn’t do anything, not saying any single word either, since Victor is looking like he hasn’t finished his speech. After all, Victor is the boss now and the meeting is still at his hand. Mrs. Emilia tries her best to restrain her anger, letting Victor make his decision regarding that issue. Meanwhile, Victor hasn’t changed his facial expression. He is still looking so carefree with his light smile which has adorned his face for a while. “I’m not looking for an apology here. I’m looking for an answer. Sarah Campbell, what would you do in that position?” Victor asks. Sarah is startled to find the new boss already knows her full name. She averts her attention to Nancy with an irritated stare, suspecting that Nancy has told everything about her to this new president. “Sarah Campbell?” Victor calls again to avert her attention to him. “Ah? I’m so sorry, Mr. President. I shouldn’t push you out. I should have volunteered myself to get out of the elevator before,” sh
Nancy didn’t imagine being invited to the meeting. Let alone to be appointed as the official manager to replace Abigail. She starts doubting herself, whether she can answer the trust that Victor has put on her. And somehow, Victor already understands a bit of Nancy’s inferiority complex. But he believes that her inferiority complex comes from her desperation after doing her best, which has been fruitless so far. “Rest assured! If talking about working hard, I believe you’ve been working hard for this company more than anyone else,” Victor pats her shoulder before leaving her there. Some other employees express their congratulations to Nancy, despite only showing happy looks on their face. They are the people who really recognize Nancy’s effort. Especially Gianna, who has been with her for five years. Abigail enters the room again, and there she is startled to find Nancy is already sitting on her chair. She begins to realize that her position as an official manager is really taken o
