The Shadow Man TARGET X: PART I
As the couple tried to get to know the man better, the small group suddenly became bigger when more people started joining them. No one dares to mention he was the mystery donor, nor did they ask. All they did was get to know the man and share small talks with him. Despite his indifferent, cold and aloof manner, it didn't bother them, as the man's worth was more than his character. The ladies gazed at the man as the top number bachelor on their list they needed to cling onto. As the host mentioned he was single, they had a chance to be Mrs. Z. "Sir, if you need help trying to find a place, our company recently built a new building." "What are you talking about, a man like him would need a proper house."

As the event was coming to its end, an unexpected guest joined them as well, along with his party. The group of people who were already with
The Shadow Man TARGET X: PART II
Early the next day, Jacob received a call from the hotel management that someone was waiting for him in the lobby. Since, he restricted anyone from looking for him in his hotel room and the hotel management had no guts to turn away the people that came looking for the man. They had no choice but to break the rule they agreed on. When he came down, the hotel manager greeted them with cold sweets and was pacing back and forth, explaining everything that had happened. However, seeing the cold look the man was giving him. The manager was at the point of breaking down and cries on his knees, begging the man to not fire him. Even the other staff who were watching from afar felt like they'd all be losing their jobs soon. The man had made such arrangements, and the owner of the hotel agreed with his request. Yet, they easily broke it because of the people that came by to visit him. "Ah, Madam, we brought..." Samantha got up and welcomed the man with a smile on his face. Seeing how pale the

A day before their appointment, Samantha called in to check on the man. "Z, are you able to join us tomorrow?" Samantha inquired excitedly whilst she eagerly waited for the man's response. "I can, I'll be accompanied by my friends." Jacob replied not specifically telling her whom he had invited. When Samantha heard the man mentioned that more than one was coming, she became curious of the people he had invited. Since, she didn't want to be rude and turn the man away, she happily complied. She was a hundred percent sure that one of those friends must be Margaret as they were known to be quite close. Almost everyone in their circle knew of them attending Venus' gathering that night. "No problem, the more the merrier." Samantha happily replied without inquiring of the people the man had invited. "Very well." Jacob responded shortly after and ended the call after the woman had nothing more to say. Once he finished the call, he called Red right away. "Have you prepared everything

How much she wanted to spend the time with the man in his car, but she ended up traveling on her own. Instead, she watches her nemeses drives off with the man whom she wishes to get closer to. What worst, it seems the two already have such a close relationship which would be hard for her to intervene. However, she still has a chance with the man.

The Shadow Man VENUS VS SAMANTHA: PART II
In the meantime, the people who were invited to the gathering have already. They were all surprised to see the host had not arrived yet. They all wonder what could have probably caused the woman who normally is early to be late. It was so strange that they all panicked and wondered if something bad had happened to her. "Has anyone of you hear from Sam?" "We don't know, we were the first to arrive. Even the servants have no idea where she is." "Did something happened?" "Who knows, she not even answering her phone." Everyone curiously wondered what had happened. No matter how much they rang the woman's phone, their call would only go to voicemail. As if she was uncontainable. However, what they didn't know, was the woman was too furious to even notice her phone. Each one of them none stop called and rang her number. They didn't stop at all until they heard some news about the woman. "Any luck?" "No, she not answers at all." "What do you think happened?" "Maybe she is stuck
The Shadow Man VENUS VS SAMANTHA: PART III
Samantha could hear the mumble and gossiping in the background noise. Each one curiously asking and wondering who the person could be. She only replied to them: "You all know her." "No way?" "Is she out of her mind? What is she thinking?" "Seriously, she dares come!" Samantha didn't know whether to laugh or compliment her friends for right away guessing who the person was. Their reaction was even priceless. Her friends are truly her friends as they detest the woman as much as she does. Who wouldn't hate her as she has done so much not only to her but also to them. For them, Venus was a woman who didn't value friendship at all. She would go behind the backs of those close to her. She only cares about herself and care for no one. What's important is the benefit she gets from someone. The only person whom they think Venus has not hurt is Margaret, as the woman is someone who she practically raised as her sister. "What is that woman thinking, seriously? Has Venus lost her mind? Has
The Shadow Man ANOTHER UNWELCOMED GUEST: PART I
Jacob walked around and acted not interested towards Venus at all. When Samantha witness earlier that the man just left her on her own, it made her thought that the man must not be that interested towards the woman. "Z, I heard from a friend that you once again donated a huge amount of money." Samantha praised him for his action. "I don't recall." He responded as if he had no idea of what the woman was talking about. He had been busy preparing for his mission lately that he hasn't had the time to go out at all."She mentioned about a charity event in X city, last Thursday." Samantha explains in details what the event was all about. Seeing as the man had no idea, Samantha thought because of his busy schedule he must not have remembered everything. Jacob said not a word; he was sure the person whom Samantha's friend saw was not him. Instead, the person who appeared to be him on that day was none other but his brother. 'F*cking b*stard, trying to show himself now.' He kept his thought
The Shadow Man ANOTHER UNWELCOMED GUEST: PART II
Joe Black smiled despite the look on everyone's faces. He acted as if he was not bothered by their expression. He became even excited when he saw unexpected guests among the people gathered. "Joe?" Venus was startled when she saw the man. She would never dream in her wildest dreams that a man would appear on such an occasion. She became curious as to why he had come. "Venus, what a coincident." Joe Black stated smiling despite the looks some of the people were giving him. Samantha thought it was no coincidence at all. The man must have heard the news of the man being invited to her gathering. He must have made the trip knowing that it would be awkward in the end. Venus too, thought the same thing as Samantha. For once, both of them could actually agree on something. It was already awkward for her to be around, now it’s even more awkward because of the man. She knows for a fact that both men don't seem to see eye to eye. Even though no one knows the reason why the man doesn't want t
