Hector POVHector was heading to the company before he received a call about Greg, then he reversed back immediately.He could recall the last place he spotted Greg’s car, and now he was heading there. He remembered his plate number, so it might be easier to trap him this time.He reached the same spot where he last saw him at twenty-five minutes and came down from his car. He spotted Greg’s car, wondering what he was doing there.As he was about to walk through the parking lot, the same place he had gone to pick up Grandma Lisa’s car, he saw Greg and heard a female scream.Now, Darren was right about getting a female to get his drugs transported. Hector watched as he yanked the girl by her blonde hair, and she screamed even though she had something in her mouth that shouldn’t make her speak audibly.Hector immediately put a call to Darren: “You are right, he’s with a girl now, and I think he abducted her.” Hector spoke angrily. His anger was built up because of Greg.He wanted to imm
Richard was in the company when his phone suddenly beeped in his pocket. He had decided not to take anyone’s call because he had lots of work to do.But the moment he noticed that it wasn’t just a normal number but the normal Cops code, he answered immediately, his heart beating frantically, hoping he hadn’t done anything wrong.With shaking hands, he glued the phone to his ears, and it happened to be Greg who was speaking on the phone.His voice was nearly inaudible, more like he was wincing in pain. “I don’t have much time to speak on the phone, Richard; I only have two minutes to speak to you. I want you to come to the station; I have been arrested.” He sounded like he was pleading for mercy, and before Richard could say a word, the call had already ended.“What the fuck just happened?” It felt like he was in a trance because he would never have imagined Greg being in police custody.Greg also contacted Nora, and they were all on their way to the police station. Grandma Lisa was fu
Immediately, Darren hopped into his car. He had another call from Nora, and she was still panicking.She asked him if he was on his way already and where he had gone without informing her. This time, Darren laughed hard because it was already sounding funny.He still didn’t want to sound harsh to her; he calmly told her that he was on his way already and she was going to see him in a few minutes.Darren was furious; it didn’t show on his face, but his nails were digging into the heel of his palm as though he wanted to rip out the flesh from the area of his palm.Hector had already started the engine of his car; he was waiting for Darren to get in and do the same, but he noticed he just stood in front of it, squeezing his brow and his head facing down.Hector noticed that something was wrong; he took off his seatbelt and ran towards him.“What’s wrong?” He put a hand on his shoulder, but Darren wasn’t looking at him because his eyes were shut and he still had his head face down.“Nora
“Shit, you motherfucker, how did you let them catch you?” Eric cursed as he clutched on the bars of the gate that were separating him physically from Greg.He came as a visitor, and Greg was in jail in the meantime, waiting for his fucking fate.The way Greg looked was dreadful. Eric had never seen him this scared and hopeless. Eric was feeling thankful in his head because he didn’t accompany Greg when he abducted the girl.If not, he would have been behind bars as well, but his betrayal smile kept flaunting on his cheek as though he could do something to help him.“It’s been two days, and Grandma Lisa hasn’t even come to see me.” He murmured, his head down, facing the ground.“What if she thinks you really did it, or maybe she was still in shock that you could do something like that to ruin your family name?” Eric's words were beginning to piss him off.“If you fucking don’t have anything good to say, then get the fuck out of here. I don’t even need your sympathy.” He growled at him.
Darren strided to the parking lot. He was about to get into his car when his phone buzzed.He was surprised that Hector was the one calling; he hadn’t asked him to get any work done but to check on Laiza. Or was something wrong with Laiza?Darren usually has a short breath whenever he thinks of Laiza.“Hey, is everything okay with Laiza?” He breathed loudly.“Laiza is fine. However, I’m not calling because of her; I want you to watch the live news that’s going on right now.” Hector said it in suspense, but the way he sounded, it could only be one person who would go on the internet to cause an issue.Eric was the only and first person that came to mind.“On it, Hector.”He stayed on the call. Darren got into the driver seat and settled down to scroll through the internet.“The Reeves family is a mess since Mr. Reeves, the billionaire, died. It’s so disappointing.” Darren read out the first comment on social media, and his heart clenched.He scrolled down and saw hundreds of comments, a
“I know you so well, Hector. Are you feeling something for my sister?” He narrowed his eyes at him as he released these teeth from the tight grit.“Maybe, but I never said you should read me out.” Hector twisted his lips.“Don’t you dare, Hector.” Darren threatened plainly before he turned back to stare at Laiza. She was gradually blinking her eyes open. It meant that their noise had disturbed her sleep.“Look what you too just did.” Leo accused, as he nudged his head towards her, that they had woken her up.“Shit, you caused this motherfucker.” Darren cursed at Hector, but a small laugh bubbled from his lips. He wanted to go close to her, but he needed to give Darren the space to speak with his sister.Hector wasn’t sure if she was going to recognize him as his brother because, according to Leo, she had been separated from him since she was six years old, and it might be a little difficult to remember him.He watched as Darren sat on the bed beside Laiza. She had completely opened he
“This motherfucker is right because the cop is calling at the moment.” He pulled out his phone from his pocket and saw the ID.He gave Hector a deadly glance and answered the call. “We have thoroughly investigated Eric and his family, but there is no proof that he is involved in Mr. Reeves's death.” Hector focused on Darren’s expression as he narrowed his eyes at him.“And who the heck did it? Who killed Mr. Reeves, if not Eric? Who is the fucking main suspect?” Darren sounded like he was losing it, but Hector had to walk away from Laiza and head towards Darren.He dropped a hand on his shoulder, like he had been doing lately, because he had never seen Darren go wild these past few days.“However, Greg is a main suspect because we found the same gun that has the exact bullet that was used on Mr. Reeves.” This time, Darren clutched his phone harder against his eyes; he gritted his teeth as though he were about to rip out flesh with them.“So do you believe that the fucking monster actu
Darren and Hector were purposely making him worried because they slowed down when they noticed he was about to go crazy, thinking Darren and Hector were planning to get themselves killed.“ Relax, Leo were just tricking your ass.” Hector stuck his head out of the window of his car and grinned at him.Darren stopped speaking as he stayed focused on the road. They were close to the press and he was more than prepared to take this step.In the new few minutes they drove into the parking space of the press office. The building had a structure of that of the penthouse with modern design.Darren was the first to alight from his car, Hector followed after him then Leo who happened to be driving into the space beside Hector’s car.They used the lift to get to the main floor and alighted once it clicked at the destination. Some of the workers knew Hector, they stared at him with widened eyes as he walked in front of Darren, Leo was behind them.Hector pushed the glass door open and gav
