"Hello, who's this?" James, who was resting in his office after a long surgical operation was half asleep when he answered the phone. He has been staying in the hospital for the past two days and has been quite busy. His eyes could barely stay awake when he answered the call."It's me."James woke up after hearing the serious tone of voice. That tone could only mean one thing. "Brother, where are you? Are you leaving again?"Jacob, who was on his way to board the plane, called James despite knowing the man would be busy.But, he needed to at least warn someone. "Be careful, I've set some people to watch you all. Inform everyone about my plans, but make sure to be discreet and not let anyone notice.""Wait, brother, what is going on?" James panicked as he couldn't comprehend the severity of the situation. "Does this have something to do with Jasper? I received his gift as well.""Hmm, I'm not sure yet." Jacob replied, already expecting that their brother would have let him know as well
"What's taking him so long?""Came down, the plane just landed idiot."As the man walked out among the crowd, he already noticed the people waiting for him. But, he didn't approach them as he went the other way."Hey, there he is.""Huh, where is he going?"Both Joker and Red quickly chased after the man."Jacob, hey.""Is something wrong with him, didn't he see us?"Jacob continues to ignore them. He really didn't want to bother with the two. but, the two eventually caught up with him and pulled him back."Hey, Jacob, didn't you see us."Red looked at Jacob, who had an indifferent look on his face. He sighs as he realizes what happened. "He saw us, he just didn't care about us.""Hey man, why do you do that? Didn't you receive our message that will pick you ip." Joker acted all pitiful and sad that the man ignored them.Jacob responded by taking his phone out and showing them that it was turned off. He had intentionally turned off his phone as he knew the two would contact them."Oh?
"Here are the reports you ask last time." Red came to visit Jacob in the hotel he was staying at. He also brought some things the man would need to complete his mission."Will she really be there?" Jacob inquired curiously of the reports that his target does attend the gathering all the time."Yeah, she's always there. I'll be strange is she doesn't show up. She's the host of the party." "Even the host can sometime not attend."Red was speechless as what the man said was indeed true. "She'll be there. We've been keeping an eye on her for over six months now. She hasn't miss at party."The so-called party is more like a gathering of underground leaders. The target would normally host a party using it as a cover-up to invite the leader and discuss their plans. Not only that, they'll have their dealing done during the party as well. Exchange all goods, such as drugs, organs, and sometimes human beings.That's right, the organization has secretly kidnapped people turning them into slaves
Jacob returned to his hotel room and Red was there preparing all the things he had asked of him."Where's Joker?" He inquired as he didn't see the man at all."He's crying somewhere." Red sighs as he didn't know at all where the man went as soon as he vanished.Joker must have felt guilty for what had happened and hurriedly went to search for the previous owner of the car. He worried, that the owner might be targeting his friend. If so, he needs to make sure that the man does not get a step ahead of them."Hmm, leave him be." Jacob replied, as he went to look at the things he prepared. "Am I really waring that tonight.""don't you want to look like a normal friend visiting her, I mean, dressing up like this is normal as well." Red said, as he showed him the different suits he had prepared. Technically, the man should be used in wearing such cloths. However, he has been living such a shabby life for the past two years that he has gotten used to just wearing trouser and a simple t-shirt
After the concertJacob continue to wait for Margaret to finish changing her clothes. It took a while, as she had so many props on her hair which needed to be carefully taken off one at a time. People would peek at him from time to time, curious of his identity. As Margaret addresses him with a Z, his true name and status could be anyone. Which left everyone pondering who he could be.As Margaret did not reveal any details about the man except for the fact they are long time pen pals and have actually written letters to each other instead of using technology. Her excuses made everyone jealous of her as there was still such an old fashion man out there.Jacob overheard everything and was impress with the girl. She indeed had a talent for deceiving people. He now understood how the girl was able to easily get along with the people at those gatherings. She can just sweet talk her way out and sugarcoat each word, making it sound pleasing to one's ear."Ah, Z, have I kept you waiting?" Mar
The past few days, Jacob has been spending his days with Margaret. It was around lunch time when he grabbed his phone and noticed the message on it. Seeing the message made him chuckle as he didn't expect the girl would send such a message to him.Instead of replying back, he grabbed his phone to make a call."Have you move out?" Jacob asked without even asking how the girl was doing or greeting her."Ah, Jacob, what the hell were you thinking?" Leslie yelled her lungs out at the man over the phone. Despite it being already late, she didn't care at all. She was still wide awake, as she was making preparations for her first day at work."Then, you have move out. For you to be yelling at me like this, means you're either not at a home or in the new apartment." Jacob teased the girl on the phone as he went to prepare his meal."I've move out!" She yelled aloud, annoyed that the man continued to tease her despite they were miles away from each other."Anyways, what do you think?" Jacob wo
"Margaret, we thought you won't come.""Oh, Margaret is finally here."Margaret walked inside the mansion with her arms linked to the man. The two caught everyone's attention as the man she was with was eye-catching and breathtaking. He looks like one of those Greek gods who were sculptured to perfection. Despite his cold look and aura, the chills he brought made others wish to be with him."My, who could this be?""Has our Margaret finally tied the knot with someone.""Everyone, this is my friend Z. We've known each other for years." Margaret introduced the man to everyone who had been eager to be acquainted with him.Jacob, who had been waiting for this moment smiled towards them; he greeted them like how a gentlemen would greet someone back in the old days. He slightly bend his body and bowed towards them, "A pleasure to meet all of you, please, call me Z.”.....A few hours before the grand event, Jacob was being nagged by Joker and Red on what he needed to wear. They have visited
Jacob continued to smile as he received praise for the outfit he was wearing. How he wished to punch both Red and Joker for forcing him to go out and shop when in the end, he ended up wearing a couple of tshirts and trousers.Margaret explained to him that the best way for people to believe that there is something going on between them, is for them to dress like a couple. Wearing matching attire. As Margaret normally attends the gathering wearing simple clothes.Jacob noticed most people were wearing luxury casual clothes. They look ordinary, but the price are far from ordinary."My, Z, can we know what you do?""That's right, we never expect Margaret to be with someone, I mean, I've been pursuing her for years.""Ha-ha, she won't go out with an ugly guy like you."Everyone started laughing around as they teased the man that confessed. Margaret smiled as she leaned her head onto the man's arm."Hmm, tell them Z." Margaret prompted him that it was fine to talk."I do some business." Ja
