“You’re crazy!” Jurgen shouted before he punched Gaston’s face.

Gaston fell to the ground. His lips burst and blood gushed from the cut.

The quick-witted Edgar went in between to stop Jurgen from beating Gaston.

Meanwhile, Griffti watched the situation while sitting on the side.

“Are you nuts?!” Edgar asked Jurgen. “Why did you go here and suddenly punch your boss’s son?!”

Ignoring Edgar, Jurgen pointed at Gaston while huffing.

“Why did you do that to Divine?!”

Gaston wiped the blood on his lips and stood up.

“So, you heard the news,” Gaston uttered.

“Yes!” Jurgen shouted. “I heard how you betrayed Divine during the meeting!” Jurgen looked at Griffti and added, “You teamed up with her cousin to get the Hamington!”

“I won’t deny that I teamed up with Griffti,” Gaston answered.

“Gaston, I couldn’t understand you,” Jurgen said. “Since young, Divine stayed by your side. She protected you! She was a good friend! Why did you let the police take her?”

“I think you are misunderst

    Wearing an expensive Armani suit, Jurgen went inside Chairman’s Harold office. “I am here, Grandpa.” Jurgen called him Grandpa because he was Divine’s fiancé. “Sit down, Jurgen.” Jurgen sat down in front of Harold with teacups on the table. “I heard from my father that you wanted to see me. May I know why?” “Hmm, do you want to take a sip of the tea first? It’s a calming tea.” “It’s fine, Grandpa.” “All right,” Harold answered and then took a sip. “I call you to offer you a job.” Jurgen frowned. Job? Jurgen doesn’t need a job because he’s already the heir of the Hopkins corporation. Jurgen doesn’t need a job! “I have a friend in Moscow. He’s looking for a guard. You can work for him.” “W-Wait Grandpa. I couldn’t understand. I am Levi Hopkins. Why would I work as a guard again?” Harold kept his mouth shut. He picked up his cup and took a sip. The thin sound resonated in the room when he placed it back in the saucer. A chill haze of suspicion began to form in Ju

    Gaston and Griffti have four suspects in the Chairman’s murder case. Victoria, Sonny, Divine, and Jules. But, when Gaston found out that it was Jurgen who pushed Secretary David, Jurgen became a suspect too. Late at night, Sonny called Gaston and demanded to meet him. Gaston’s secretary drove him to the park where Sonny asked Gaston to meet him. As soon as Gaston arrived, he saw Sonny waiting for him while sitting on a bench. He walked closer to Sonny and sat next to him. “What is it?” Gaston asked. “Did you come here to pay your loan to the Hour Investment?” Sonny stayed quiet. “If you call me asking me to give you more time so you can pay it back, then don’t bother. I have no plan of changing our deals.” “Levi,” Sonny called. When Gaston turned his head to Sonny, he was surprised to see Sonny kneeling in front of him. Sonny was kneeling?! Gaston savored the moment looking at the man who used to degrade him before. “I am begging you,” Sonny pleaded. “Please give my shar

    Victoria was scared. She knew she had to find Jillian and send her away before everyone found out that one of her children murdered someone in the past. ‘I don’t care about the corporation anymore! I just wanted to save my children!’ Victoria thought. So, the next morning, Victoria went back to the Hopkins Mall to meet the saleslady in the department store. But before she could come in, the guard blocked her way. “I am sorry. But you are not allowed to come in.” Victoria looked around the entrance of the mall. People looked at her and laughed. She felt so embarrassed. “Ha!” she scoffed. “Why am I not allowed to come in? The other people can come,” she asked. “You are Victoria Solice, right?” Victoria lifted her chin and answered, “Yes. I am one of the shareholders of the Hamington group. Now you know who I am, let me in.” Victoria, who didn’t bring a body guard with her because she wanted to meet the girl in secret, tried to step in. However, the guard stopped her. “Sorry.

    A month before Gaston was sentenced to death, he heard the news that a lady named Agatha Mcguffin, who went missing for many months, was found dead in the Unision River. Agatha was Sonny’s mistress. At that time Gaston had no interest in them anymore. He was going to die anyway. But now that he came back to the past, Gaston believed that Agatha might have a clue with her. “Ahhh!” Screams broke the peace in the streets of Orlando. People swarmed, walking towards the place where they heard the shouting. “Is there a fight going on?” “Let’s see.” Many people gathered in front of Agatha’s boutique. Outside the shop, two women are fighting each other. “Ahh! Please let me go!” “How dare you?! You used my husband’s money to make this, didn’t you?!” “You are wrong! Please let go of my hair!” “And you’re even lying!” Victoria pulled Agatha’s hair and swayed her left and right. “You seduced my husband and asked him to build this shop! Didn’t you!” “Mrs. Victoria! I told you it was

    “Is that really true? Did you really come back from the future?” “Yes. That’s right. I knew all of these because I saw it.” “So, in the future, you know me?” “I do. And I know what will happen to you. Agatha Mcguffin. Five months later, you will die.” Agatha was stunned. “It is your future, Miss Agatha,” Gaston explained. Agatha could not say a thing. ‘If he could really see the future, then… it might be true,’ she devated inside her head. “I was there when you met Mr. Harold Solice for the first time. I also saw the news when you went missing and were found dead on the river. So, if you want to survive and change your future, you need to listen to me.” For Agatha, time traveling is only for minds with wide imaginations. But now, someone, who looks sane, was convincing her to believe something so impossible. “I can’t believe that someone could travel miles of years, months, or seconds. I felt like I was being pranked,” Agatha uttered after a long time of being quiet. “If y

    “I don’t have scented candles anymore,” Agatha said while putting fire to the candles with a lighter in her hand.Sonny was sitting on the bed, looking at her exposed back with a smile on his face.‘Even if I don’t have the Hamington, as long as I have Agatha with me, I will be fine,’ Sonny thought.“If you will go here, you should tell me so that I can prepare them. I know you haven’t been able to sleep well these past few days. Were things at work so hard?”“Hmmm. A lot,” Sonny said staring at Agatha with a grin. “Why are you looking at me like that?” Agatha asked as she leaned closer to him and put her head on his shoulder.“It is because you are so pretty.”“You really know how to swoon a lady, Mr. Solice.”Sonny stared at her and sneered. Looking at the space with narrowed eyes, he asked her, “Ahhh, do you have any idea how my wife found out that you are my woman?”At his question, Agatha thought of Gaston.But she would like to expose Gaston, as they are now allies.“I am not

    “Secretary David might regain consciousness! The doctor said that he’s gettingbetter!” The news that David will soon regain his consciousness shas hook Jurgen. ‘No! If David woke up, he would tell Gaston and Mr. John the truth!’ Jurgen worried. Jurgen doesn’t want to lose John’s trust. Therefore, Jurgen thought of a plan. First, he put all the money he stole to John into his bank. Next… ‘I need to go to David.’ Jurgen went inside the hospital. He walked inside as naturally as he could until he reached the VIP room where the David resides. He found it odd that there are no guards in front of the hospital room. Yet, he only considered himself lucky. Jurgen opened the door and stepped in. Inside the room, he saw the unconscious secretary, whom he pushed down the stairway. A menacing grin spread onto Jurgen’s lips. If he wanted his plans to succeed, then Jurgen knew that he had to get rid of any possible way. And one of them is David. ‘I cannot let you live. So, you have to di

    Who killed Harold Solice? Jurgen remembered a few of his memories this morning. After Harold found out that he is not the real Levi Hopkins, Jurgen poured the drugs into the Chairman’s teapot. He was supposed to use the drug to threaten Jules. But he used it to the Chairman instead. The drug would not kill the Chairman, Jurgen thought. He expected that the Chairman will be bedridden for a while. If they found the drug, Jules would be the prime suspect. But the next day, the Chairman died. Jurgen’s memories stopped at that point. But it was clear to him. ‘I accidentally killed the Chairman with the drug.’ He wasn’t sure why he saw this and why he remembered memories that didn’t happen in the present. However, now that Jurgen was caught by the police, he thought he could use this to get Gaston’s help. Jurgen was dragged into the interrogation room in the Central Investigation Department. And his crime, attempted murder. Not once, but twice. Sitting on the bolted chair, Jurge

Thanks to Dr. Yuhana’s research and the cure that Hamington and Hopkin’s Medical Research Corporation revealed. “Dr. Yuhana is there!” “Quick!” When Yuhana walked out of the Medical Research building, many reporters waited for her outside. They were all eager to get an interview to the doctor who invented the medicine that saved millions of people around the glove. Wearing her white doctor’s gown, Yuhana looked at the reporters, which were blocked but the Corporation’s guards. “Dr. Yuhana! How did you come up with the medicine?” “It is true that you and the two corporation foresaw the virus and created the cure before it appeared?” “You created the medicine against a deadly virus within a year!

Dr. Yuhan, who heard it, could hardly believe what she just heard. “He’s insane. It is impossible to guess a virus that hasn’t arrived yet,” she mumbled before she heard a kid groaning in pain. Yuhan quickly moved up and examined the kid. "Tumbo lako vipi?" (How's your stomach?) she asked to a kid who showed symptoms of the Waterborne disease. "Inauma," (It hurts) he said while pressing his stomach. The only treatment for this is drinking plenty of safe water, rest, and take over-the-counter diarrheal medication. But... "Una maji, daktari?" (do you have some water, doctor?) he asked with teary eyes. ‘What should I do? I didn't get any today,’ Yuhana worried. "Where should I get some water?" she murmured as she tied her hair up. "Excuse me," a voice called her. When she tilted his head, she saw Gaston. "Do you need some help?"

Upon his research, Dr. Yuhan was sent to Democratic Republic of the Congo, Maneima to do a research about the waterborne disease around the town. Enduring the very hot weather, Gaston went to the Maneima to find the doctor. He didn’t take his guards with him, as he doesn’t want to appear like a super rich person. Instead, he only too Secretary Lanceil with him. “Are we there yet?” Secretary Lanceil asked to Gaston. Gaston looked back and saw his secretary catching his breath. He wanted to laugh at him. “That’s why I told you that you didn’t need to come with me,” Gaston said while walking. “How can I do that, Sir? You are my boss,” Lanceil answered. Not long after

Gaston cannot stop a virus from spreading. But he found out a way to minimize the casualties it would result. And also, things to do to maintain the economy growth of the world. That was the reason why he offered Griffti to run a huge Medical project with him before November ends. ‘With Hamington’s construction’s ability, it is possible,’ Griffti thought. “But I don’t know why he suddenly thought of that,” he added. Gaston helped him and the Hopkins to grow because he saw the future six months before he died in the past. But now, Gaston has no idea about what will happen in the next months and years. “Gaston is crazy,” Edgar said. Sitting inside the Hour Investment Company, which became their hangout place, Griffti looked at Edgar. “Did Gaston come to you and ask you to do things al

She couldn’t say the truth, or lie in front of Gaston’s father.John laughed at Jane’s reaction.

    Griffti, the Chairman of the Hamington Corporation, was working alone in his office. Even though years passed by, he was still having a hard time defeating his disease. Especially after his grandfather died in the hands of his cousin, Divine. ‘Will there be a day when I will feel peace?’ Griffti asked that to himself. Knock knock. He looked at the door of his office. “Sir, it’s me,” his secretary announced. “Come in.” The secretary came in, but he stopped and stood from a great distance. Serving Griffti, the secretary knew that his boss hates close contact. Or else, his panic disorder will attack. “Chairman, I need to report something.” “Tell me.” “You received mail.” “You could have just sent it to my email account.” “N-No. The mail was a real letter.” “Real letter?” “Yes. The man said that I should deliver this directly to you.” Frowning, Griffti responded, “Throw it away. You should be careful and stop receiving suspicious thing from a random stranger.” “Sir, the m

Be thankful that you are my friend.”“Yes. Thank you so much, Edgar.”“Huh! As long as you know.”The two of them took sips on their beers.“So, what is your plan now? You talked to Jurgen and stopped his death. But you still have one day left. Do you have another plan?”‘If I will go back to the present, I might as well learn more things in this time that will help me,’ Gaston thought.“Edgar, you still following the economic reports around the world, right?”“Of course! Even if I am living like this, I am still hoping that someday, I would be given a chance to start a business again.

    “That’s right. I am the friend who died for you, Jurgen.” What did Jurgen feel when he saw his best friend? Remorse. Guilt. Happiness. “You’re alive. You are… alive.” Crying, Jurgen went close to Gaston. He held his shoulder, as he wanted to make sure that this is not an illusion which he usually saw every day. “I am so happy. So happy!” Jurgen cried out loud. His knees gave in, and he knelt on the ground, lowering his head. When Gaston saw it, he felt the pain inside his chest. Gideon was right. Jurgen regretted everything and he was willing to end his life for Gaston. “Sorry, Gaston. Please, forgive me,” Jurgen cried, kissing the floor. Gaston only looked down at him. “I was wrong. I gave up our friendship just for my greed. I… I deserve to die, Gaston.” Gaston knew Jurgen was serious because he did end his life just to turn back time. “I thought that if I have your life, if I became rich, and if I got Divine, I will be happy,” Jurgen added. “But no.

I spent years in jail, and now, I am living so hard.”Gaston stared at his friend and mourned his grievance.“Actually, I still could not believe that you are Gaston and you traveled from another time. But hearing this made me so fucking happy.”A smile spread on Gaston’s lips. Even the other time, Edgar believed him although he could not understand all of Gaston’s words.“Then, I have a question,” Edgar said. “If everything you said is true, why did you
