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
But the story is a bit different with Toto's condition. That delivery guy is now coming back to Benigno’s pizza shop, still with his pale face.And unfortunately, Benigno has also just come back from Judy’s place, being accompanied by Willie. Those two people, Benigno and Willie, are having a small talk at one table in the shop, right near the entrance door.Right now, Willie is telling Benigno the story about what Victor had done to Limbo’s Paradise, and the chaos that would possibly occur because of it.Toto’s coming with the pale face has attracted Benigno’s concern. And so, Benigno halts Willie from continuing the talk for a moment.“Toto! What happened to you? Did you have a problem with the customer again?”Toto is a bit startled to get such a question. And then, he remembers about Mike’s warning. That’s how his face is now getting paler even more.“Ah, yes! He didn’t want to pay,” replies Toto, trying to make up a lie to explain about his awry face.It’s not the best lie. He on
When he gets out of that room, he finds Gimbo asleep on the couch. He looks so irritated to see how peaceful he is in his sleep.He wakes him up by kicking his shinbone. But Gimbo only wakes calmly, without any sense of pain on his face.“Done already?” asks Gimbo.“Yeah, we leave!”Right now, only Gimbo who accompanies him to treat his wound. Saul already told the others to leave, warning them to not ever tell anyone what has happened to him at the Counterbrand.“So, have you changed your mind, yet? Asks Gimbo.“About what?”“Telling Fazio about this?”“Are you asking me to humiliate myself in front of him? No way!”He is still so mad and isn’t accepting his loss from Vict
Some said, when you do something bad and try to run away from it, something worse will keep haunting you like an iceball. Whether it’s a regret, remorse, guilt, or just someone who seeks for your responsibility or revenge.When Lucas gets back to his office, he finds a commotion in the lobby. He takes a look from afar, and finds that the commotion occurs by a woman that looks familiar to him.As if not wanting to get entangled in whatever that woman is doing at the moment, he cancels his intention to park the car and keeps going. In the end, he decides to leave the office.Meanwhile, the receptionist and two securities are having trouble serving that lady.“How could you say that my husband is not working here?”“We’ve checked it so many times. But there’s really no staff or employee with the name Paulo Henrique that you mentioned,” replies the receptionist.“But he did say that he is working for Atkinson Pharmaceutical Company!”“Like I said before, your husband might have been lying
It takes more than 10 minutes for them from the drugstore to Judy’s apartment. It doesn’t clear what Lucas said to Emma during that period of time.But now, before she leaves, he immediately holds her hand as if asking more time to say something.“I know I’ve been so selfish to you. But everyone changes every day. I can change too,” says Lucas.“You mean, when that girl is back to you, you are going to change again?” replies Emma coldly.“N, no! I mean, it has nothing to do with her. I just want to be a better person, a better man with responsibility, in and out. Really!”“Oh, sure! Good luck then!” Emma forces to pull her hand away and opens the door.“Emma, Please! Come with me! I will introduce you to my parents”It&r
