As they reach the Counterbrand office building with two cars, they all get out and observe their surroundings. One of them opens the door of the back seat, and then Saul gets out with his long black blazer.

Mandy, who happens to notice their appearance, knows so well that they are not just commoners. Her face turns so serious as she immediately approaches them.

However, she deliberately changes her facial expression before greeting them, acting like an ignorant security girl in serving customers.

“Excuse me, handsome gentlemen. Is there anything I can help you with?” she asks with her usual cheerful tone and face.

“My boss here is going to have a meeting with the CEO of this company,” replies Gimbo with his heavy and deep voice.

“Have you made an appointment before?”

“Nope. Should I make an appointment first?” asks Saul.

“I’m afraid, yes! We are not so sure if the president of the company is available to meet with you at the moment. It’s better to make an appointment first,” says Mand

    Of course, Vincenzo wouldn’t easily buy that kind of scenario. He can’t understand why they would do that far only to save Victor.He is silent for a moment to think about those possibilities. After all, he finds it hard to accept a mere hard laborer like Gambino to have such influence on the other gangster group to stop their assassination attempt on Victor.It leaves him one possibility that Jimmy might have only told them some kind of silly joke.“So, you think that lawyer was lying just now?” he asks.“It’s not necessarily like that. He might just be telling us the truth. Which left us with another possibility that is even harder to accept. It’s possible that Gambino guy could be the real leader of La Marca. This is the only possibility for him to be able to do all those scenarios I told earlier,” says Mike.&nbs

    Only then does Saul avert his attention toward Victor. He smiles as he walks slowly to the front of Victor’s working desk.“Do you really think I came here only to ask you to accept me as your servant?” he replies.He then pulls the chair, as if intending to have a seat without waiting for Victor’s offer.“What do you want from me?” asks Victor coldly.Saul is stopped for a moment before having a seat. He then slowly puts his right hand into his long blazer, seeming to take something from it.But Victor just stays composed, even though he knows the risk that Saul could just take out a gun. After all, he has also prepared himself a gun under his table.However, he hasn’t changed his sitting position in the slightest bit. He just plays with his luxurious pen between his fingers. It&rs

    Victor immediately grabs Saul’s collar and pulls that man to him after he takes back the pen harshly. And Saul is still cursing in his agony as he holds his bloody hand. The blood is already dripping all over his luxurious long blazer.“Aaargh! Fuck! My hand!”The three of Saul's men already take out their guns.But Victor has also already turned Saul toward them as if using him as a meat shield.His left hand is now holding Saul’s chin to force him to open his neck wide. Meanwhile, his right hand is holding the pen by pointing the sharp tip to his neck.It halts those three men immediately. They can only point their guns without any option to make a move. Meanwhile, Saul keeps cursing for the pain on his hand.“How dare you, you motherfucker?!” He curses by spewing some saliva from his mouth as he finds

    A little chuckling occurs from Saul’s mouth despite the fact how dire his current situation is.“Now what? Are we going to stay like this until Santa comes?” He asks by forcing his cunning smile.“Yeah, we will stay like this until all my men come here,” replies Victor.That’s when Saul remembers about what he just heard through the speaker on Victor’s collar before. He now realizes that he is in the losing ground. But he tries to keep his composure.“Hehe. I thought so too. But then, I’m getting curious, why would someone like you not just call the police to come here? Or maybe the securities below,” he says.“Don’t think you can gain control over the situation here just by babbling out any stupid talk. Now, tell them to drop their guns,” Victor issues.

    In fact, with Victor suggesting Saul to take his family out, has emphasized to him that it’s a risky and dangerous thing to do. It’s like he was making sure that he won’t let him do it without taking any risk.“I might not be able to pull the trigger here. But I can send someone who can do it for me,” says Victor.Saul is looking so pissed to hear it. But he admits it, that he is indeed losing for this one.It’s almost like Victor has always been two steps ahead of him since the beginning. He might be underestimating Victor as a naive and clean businessman. But he realizes that he can’t just take Victor’s wit and intelligence too lightly.“Thank you for the reminder, Mr. President!” replies Saul before taking his leave.“Just save your thanks for yourself. You might need it later!” Victor denies.And so, Saul joins his men who are still waiting outside the office. After he leads the pack, only then do those scary looking guys follow him from behind.When Saul and his men walk toward t

    It makes Toto’s face so pale, due to his fear that he is going to be accused of a crime.“Ah, it wasn’t me. Someone just got hurt before and he has left. I just happened to step on the blood as I took my leave,” he explains.“Who?”“I don’t know. You see, I’m just a delivery guy.”Those two employees avert their attention toward Toto’s hat for a glance. Toto becomes so awry, thinking that they are noticing the blood on the side part of the hat.The truth is, they are only trying to have a look at the pizza banner on his hat on the front part of the hat. One of them holds the elevator door for a while, and calls for someone.Toto is getting panicked. But then, there’s only a janitor coming to them, and he is called by that employee only to clean the floor inside the elevator.“What’s this?” asks the janitor.“How would I know? Just ask this kid!”The three of them look at Toto. And Toto suddenly raises both of his hands in fear.“Please! Don’t mistake it as a crime. Someone just got hu

    Because the question is, does Jimmy also see him as a friend too. His naivety tells him that Jimmy does see him as a friend. But he doesn’t want his naivety to get the better out of him again.And that’s what Mike is trying to warn him, that his naivety could have been playing the trick on him, that he might have been deceived by Jimmy.“It’s easy to be deceived when you start seeing someone positively. For example, if Viona tries to deceive you, she has the best chance rather than any of us the watchers. The more you put your trust in someone, the easier for you to be deceived,” explains Mike.Victor nods slowly, full of thoughts. He affirms that Mike’s view has a point. And indeed, the more positive someone is, the more naive he would be.Even before Mike explains that, he has realized it earlier, that he could just be misunderstanding it all this time.But he remembers, he never asked Jimmy to bring about his past. It was Jimmu himself who started talking to him. So, he finds it ha

    After all, Mandy was the one who called the police. And so, she starts serving those officers with the best lies as best as she could. “It’s okay, Sir! It’s just a small misunderstanding. They just came here complaining about the product they damaged themselves. And that security over there, he is one of my boss’s bodyguards, and he was the one who casted those bad people away.” She explains by pointing at Mike as the bodyguard in her story. The two officers look at Mike from afar, and Mike does look convincing as a professional bodyguard. Knowing they are talking about him, Mike decides to come over to them. But he still keeps his distance a bit, standing on the other end of Jane’s working desk. He nods once, and those officers reply to him with a nod too before averting their attention back to Mandy. “They could be trying to scam you with the product they had purchased. Should we check about them?” asks one of the officers. Mandy is silent for a moment trying to come up with ano

    “So, we are going to live here now?” asks Judy, just as she gets out of the car right in front of a humble two-story house. “All of us? Together?” Victor averts his attention to Judy, and immediately, Judy changes her facial expression to her childish one. “Ah, never mind! Come Emma, we need to secure the best room for us.” Emma is still looking so unsure whether to stay living together with them. But Judy insists on taking her. Victor just lets Chappy take all his stuff inside. He just leaves, heading to one shop right next to his new house. There are several people doing some renovation for that shop. And the first thing that catches his interest is the two guys who are now installing a banner with colorful lamps, mentioning La Marca. “So you're really going to revive La Marca, huh?” Victor turns behind, and sees Jimmy coming to him. Yes, this one shop is exactly the same spot where La Marca started, and it is right across the street, in front of Jimmy’s office. “Are you inte

    So, Victor stays there for a while, waiting for Lucas to come. Meanwhile, Fazio and Gambino are looking confused by him. “So, you have footage of all his vaccine projects all this time, yet you let him scheme all these bad things on you?” asks Fazio. Victor turns his face to Vincenzo with a stupid look for a moment before giving a reply. “Um, I don’t clearly remember about this footage before. After listening to that old man’s story, only then did I think about it.” “Well, he was just a naive kid that time. He didn’t have the heart to do bad things on others,” says Vincenzo. “Heey!” Victor voices his objection. “No, it’s not about naivety,” Chappy interferes. “I know my bro is a good man. You see, I once tried to rob him, yet he treated me like a brother now.” Gambino just shakes his head with a silly face. “It’s good you want to do something good for others. But you need to understand, you can’t be too good to anyone. Especially in this kind of thing.” “I know!” replies Victor

    On the other hand, the one who hired Lt. Schneider to kill Victor as a fugitive is now having a restless night. Not because he is worried, but simply because he is confused, who killed that fat cop.He is none other than Elijah Miller, the lawyer that Lucas hires, who also has a grudge on Victor.“Could it be that man? No way!”He thinks this might be Lucas’ doing. But he never told Lucas who the police he hired for that scheme. Can’t get enough of his thoughts, he just leaves his house and visits Lucas in the middle of the night.And to add more salt to his bitterness, he finds Lucas seeming to have a peaceful night. That man opens the door for him with sleepy eyes.“What? Can’t you just come later in the morning?”“Damn! Was it really you?” asks Elijah.“What is this?” asks Lucas with a confused face.Elijah pushes the door, and then checks on the situation inside just to make sure there’s no one else beside them. He then asks Lucas to follow him to his car.“Haven't you heard the n

    Jimmy immediately whispers to Victor that they don’t need to do anything to defend Emma’s testimonies. Because Emma already finishes her role in clarifying about his memory loss. “Don’t mind them. They are just trying to create a ruckus. It’s clear they have nothing to use against us.” Meanwhile, the judge also tells Elijah to stop bringing that issue, because he sees almost no correlation between that matter with the current case. “Maybe she does this to redeem her past mistake, or maybe not,” says the judge. “Whatever her intention is, all you need to do is to focus on the evidence she brings, and the credibility in her story. Is there anything else you want to ask the witness?” “No, Your Honor!” replies Elijah. Soon after this, the judge adjourned the trial for a while. He asks both Jimmy and Elijah to come to his office. The judge delivers his sermons, advising Jimmy and Elijah not to send the trial into obscurity in order to avoid unnecessary public attention. But sadly, th

    After all, he has made an agreement with Frank for this one, and he doesn’t want to screw Frank’s scenario in attacking Adam. Besides that, Jimmy himself already prepared his own arguments to protect Victor from all the accusations.When it is time for him to bring his witness, he asks Vincenzo first, as someone who was hired as Victor’s bodyguard and accompanied Victor to Canada.“I believe it was the same day they found Atkinson’s body. My boss was invited to attend the funeral of his ex-wife. It was shocking news for him. So, without thinking much about that message, we headed to Canada the same day.”“And there was this cab driver, welcoming us by telling us he was sent by the Mayor of the Town of the Blue Mountains, the father of my boss’ ex-wife.”He tells everything about how this mischievous cab driver left them in the nowhere, and how some people came to kill Victor. But of course, Vincenzo didn’t tell the part when he killed them all by himself.“We got separated, so I told

    The next two days, Emma receives a package from her sister in Canada. It’s the document about Victor’s medical condition including the CT scan report of his head. At the same time, Mandy also receives a package from Eusebio, containing Victor’s phone that is already busted after he fell to the river. But of course, Jimmy is confident he can still fix the phone, and secures the odd message that Victor received from Emma’s phone number. “How did you get this?” asks Jimmy. “Someone sent it to me from Canada,” replies Mandy. “Who? He must know that I might need this to defend Victor’s case. Who sent it to you?” Before this, Jimmy already learned about some people talking about Eusebio coming back to Indiana. In the end, he only learned that the one being talked about was actually Victor. “Mandy! Are you hiding something from me? Did Eusebio meet with Victor in Canada?” Mandy nods twice with an uninterested face. “He was the one who helped him. He already called me right when he foun

    355 - I'm Out

    Even Frank isn’t getting a peaceful night either. There are so many things that don't click with his beautiful mind. He has learned quite far about the background behind that serial murder case. He knows that Victor has something to do with this, and has already had a theory that this led to the death of Atkinson. “So, Adam got Victor and this Johann guy at the same time. Does that mean all your theories are true?” asks Morgan. Frank doesn’t answer him. He just sits there with a flat face, while busy rubbing his ring finger which no longer has any ring on it. His mind keeps working on the narration to conclude all the theory and deduction that he has made so far. “But this man, Cooper! He said he came to Lucas to warn him about this serial killer,” he says. “But Lucas said that it was Cooper who tried to kill him in the toilet,” argues David. “That’s the problem,” Frank refutes. “We have an eyewitness that this man, Cooper, had a fight with someone wearing Arabian outfits in the

    354 - When Being Innocent Is Not Enough

    He hits Victor again, while he is still pinned down on the ground. That hit only looks like a joking tap, as if he is agitating Victor to release his rage. And indeed, it’s effective to make Victor even more infuriated and mad. But then, just as Victor raises his left hand intending to continue his assault, someone just shoots him with a gun. Fortunately, it only hit his left shoulder from behind. But because of this shot, he is no longer in a mount position pinning Johann down. Weirdly, that shot only makes Johann infuriated. He gets up, and shows how annoyed he is with the one man who just shot Victor. “Yoou!!!” He grumbles with a low voice, before shouting out his anger. “You’ve screwed everything! That’s his moment, how dare you screw it!!!” Still within his madness, Johann recklessly rushes toward that man who is still holding his gun. And then… “Bang! Bang!!” Two shots in the chest put Johann down. That man approaches Victor who is now trying to get back up by holding his

    353 - Release That Beast!

    Weirdly, for whatever reason, Johann didn’t kill Lucas. Cooper finds Lucas still breathing albeit no longer conscious. He immediately takes out a phone, and informs Victor and Vincenzo about that situation. However, as he just intends to leave that restroom, one security guard and two cops appear. Yes, there are already several cops around this building, because Lucas had shared to the police about the possibility of Victor would attack him. There are also Officer Frank and a few of his team among them in the outside. As those two cops notice Lucas’s condition in the restroom, they immediately put Cooper down on the floor. They then cuff Cooper’s hand behind his back. Of course, Cooper tries to break free, looking so impatient to not let his target away. “You stupid! You got the wrong person. He is out there, a man with an Arabian outfit!” “Silence! Whatever you want to say, you can explain it later in the office. You have the right to call an attorney. If you are unable to do so,
