The Heir of the Family 147 - Death, Life, and Money
Diego's mother, and his younger sister, Juanita, are devout christians. They have a strong belief in the existence of God, and in the eternal life after death in the hereafter. They see life as only a temporary sojourn. Likewise with death, is just a momentary separation. They believe they will be reunited again, in heaven with their loved ones in God's grace. “It’s not like I’m not sad about the death of my son. But I don’t have any interest in seeking justice. We already have the police, and our judicial system for this country. As for me, I’m surrendering myself to God’s will,” says that Mexican mom to a beautiful lady who happens to be a lawyer. “But, Mam! You could just get some…” “Enough! Even though I’m devoting my entire life to God’s will, it is not that easy for me to just let it go. Please don't make it even harder.” Diego’s mom insists on her decision, ignoring that lawyer lady as she is heading out of that cemetery. Everyone has their own way of looking at life and

You are back?” says Chappy as a greeting.Victor only replies to him with a slight change on his face. And Chappy just keeps going due to how tired he is at the moment. It’s not like he is acting like a sigma male or some cold-hearted hitman.He is just too tired with an empty mind, only focusing on recuperating his condition by instinct.

The Heir of the Family 152 - Not That Simple
In the same night, not long before midnight, Lucas takes Mr. Carter with him to one of his labs. It’s the same lab where they conduct their mysterious project.At this time, they haven’t started the work yet. But there are already five scientists inside that lab, looking busy preparing themselves with all the safety and cleaning all the tools they are going to use.Meanwhile, Lucas and Mr. Carter nonchalantly enter that lab without wearing any safety lab coats. Right now, Lucas is introducing about his project to Mr. Carter just likes what he has promised.“You are telling me, you are creating a vaccine here? Then, what’s the need to keep it a secret,” says Mr. Carter as a response to what Lucas has told him so far.He then averts his attention to Lucas, and Lucas only nods gently with a solemn look. But somehow, he feels there’s still something that Lucas hasn’t told him.“Why? Everyone has been creating vaccines since the pandemic outbreak. New types of viruses emerge, and new vacc
The Heir of the Family 153 - Trapped
Everyone can give their own conspiracy theory. But most people speculate that one minister lady was put into jail with fabricated issues by demands from some figures who have strong influence on a global scale.For that reason, Lucas finds the risk that he is going to meet the same fate as that health minister lady if he lets people know.“In 2017, she was sentenced to be jailed for four years. And guess what? In December 2019, a pandemic broke out,” says Lucas.“That’s one hell of a chaotic conspiracy theory you have there. Are you serious with that? Are you telling me that the WHO was behind all of that pandemic issue? Give me a break,” refutes Mr. Carter skeptically.“I never said it was them. It could be anyone. But one thing for sure, it needs something with huge influence to do such a thing on a global scale.”“But you don’t have any proof either,” says Mr. Carter.“I don’t have any proof for that one in the past. They are all just conspiracy theories by some people. But I know
The Heir of the Family 154 - She Left Nothing
Mr. Carter becomes annoyed and snatches back the note. He slams that note to the table, and then taps the note with his index finger as he conveys his condition. “This is my last offer. I don't care if you are going to kill me after this. I will have no part in any of your projects until you provide my request.” “But we are fighting with time here.” “If anyone dies, it will only hold down your progress. With some luck, I can assure you that you will see the result next year.” “Next year? That’s too long!” “Kid, I’m confident with my ability. I can find you a bunch of vaccine candidates in just a month. And I believe your team already has a few of them. But it will take more time to test them out. Testing them out to find one that effectively works is like a lottery. It could even take a year, five years, or even a decade.” He ends the talk as he turns away and takes his leave. He even prevents Lucas from taking him home by immediately taking out his phone to order a taxi. “Call
