“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
The fact that she was not taking his call for the twentieth time, made his heart drum a million times that he had no choice but to board a cab to her apartment.The same apartment he rented for her with his hard earned money. Anyway, people will surely do anything for love.Darren dropped out of the cab after paying up the driver and as he stepped closer to the porch he began to hear the blaring of music coming out from the house.He was about stepping on the porch but he paused and took a step back to imagine what was going on. And where the heck the music was coming from because he doesn’t want to believe it was coming from his girlfriend’s apartment.He took a long breath because he was confused as hell as to why a party was being thrown at her house and the fact she didn’t take any of his twenty calls.He finally pushed himself to step on the porch, didn’t bother to knock because the house belongs to his girlfriend anyway. So he twisted the knob and stepped into the living room.W
“ You fucking bastard!” Eric felt like his pride was suddenly bruised as he attempted to throw his fist at Darren’s face again. But this time, Darren saw it coming that he grabbed his fist and gave it a twist that he began to groan.His guards came around to attack but he threw a fist across them as well and they could barely withstand it.When they are still trying to gain themselves, Darren grabbed Avery’s arm with ease as he pulled her to him.“ Avery tell me it’s all a prank! Tell Them the truth about us!”“ What should I tell them? Tell them that a poor delivery man like you is my boyfriend?” She scoffed as she smacked him in the face.“ Stop embarrassing me and leave!” she groan as her eyes widen to the extreme, to show that she was dead serious and it wasn’t a prank.His heart sank when she said she was embarrassing him. He wanted to let out his grief but he was in front of the crowd and couldn’t believe she was doing this to him.“ You won’t leave right? Okay wait, let me tell
When he stepped outside, the day seemed to be a little late and the cold seemed to be severe.He squeezed his hand across his chest tightly, the cold was tormenting his broken heart. He needed something warm. Something that would warm up his heart and be able to let out his frustration.Darren checked his jean pocket and saw that he had 3 dollars left with him and the only thing he could think of was alcohol. They say alcohol is bad but they ignore the fact that alcohol is the only friend that get to stay with you in tough times. The only friend that would permit you to let out the heaviness buried in one's heart. Yes it’s bad, but it gives you the freedom to open up your heart and groan whatever way you want and it won’t judge. It won’t judge you like others would.Darren located the nearest bar close to him. He had to hurry up because he felt like it was difficult for him to breath already.The more he thinks about what had happened back at his girlfriend’s apartment, the more he
