*** *** Justin hears the clucking of a gun and the next second, it's noose was kissing the back of his head. Justin swallowed loudly, "I wasn't with my phone when you called and it was on silent. I'm sorry." "Really, should test that?" Mr Anonymous asks.Justin nods, he hated he couldn't see the person he is talking to and he is in darkness. "Where's your phone?""Inside." Justin replied. Mr Anonymous places the car, a smirk on his face. "If my men so much as hears a noise, I'll take it you can't be trusted anymore."Justin nods, there was no way they are going to find out, not when the phone is with him and really on silent. The only problem now was, Zelda shouldn't make a fvcking sound.Mr Anonymous hated that Justin was calm and isn't squirming like he used to. He hates the sudden boldness, now he couldn't play with his favourite toy for long anymore."You're lucky!" Mr Anonymous said, ", Now back to business.""Yes sir." Justin squirmed.Mr Anonymous wore a big smile, perhaps
*** *** ***It was the day to finally meet his parents and yet, he has no culprit in mind, except Justin. Was it only Justin he was going to tell his parents he found. He promised them to start when he is ready and but with him now focusing on the task, they must be thinking he took everything as a joke.He allowed himself to get caught up in other things, there's no excuse for that, especially with the Bruce family.Ryan shakes his head at himself in the bathroom mirror, he doesn't deserve to dress well to his parents as a means of punishment.He and Alina were back to their silent treatment and all, he can feel she's mad at him, but he can't be too bothered about it, not with the things he has on mind.He took his phone and head out of the house, the second Alina answered an incoming call.He could allow himself the luxury of taking the bus but he doesn't deserve it, he doesn't deserve anything good.He put his phone on silent, he doesn't need any disturbance from Asher, especially
*** *** ***Alex enters his company, feeling on top on the world. He wouldn't let that low life words get to him."Where are you coming from?" Mr Morbian asks, Alex enters his office and meets his father there, sitting cross legged."A trip to death land!" He snapped at his father, "I can't believe you wanted be brain dead.""What good is it to have a child to barely listens to me. You're better off as dead.""Sorry dad, but I am here to stay." Alex glared at his father."Thanks to your nonchalancy, the company lost the contract. I invited them over and we lost the contract to another company.""And you want to blame for that?""Who else am I to blame? Me? You had a job and it was to get the contract which you lost?""I fell sick father!!! Shouldn't you have an ounce of sympathy for me?!""Did I put that sickness in you? Did I ask for to be that way? All I asked for was a son who would listen to me.""Why don't you find another son to do your biddings?!""Why else do I need your sper
*** *** ***Alina notices Ryan didn't come home either. She wondered by Hayley's mother asked for his number. Or was he on some kind of trouble? She had called Zelda's a million times but her wasn't going, she couldn't help but being worried. She just waited with bated breath for some kind of news.As she walked by the road, heading to the noodles shop down the road, she notices the restaurant she once went to for job has closed down and in it's place laid a boutique.She frowned at it in surprise. How could it have shut down, it had so much potential and it's doesn't seem like one that would shut down anytime soon."Hey!" Someone popped behind her.Alina jumped in surprise, "goodness!!""Scared you?" Eleanor grinned."Don't you have work?""I do. It's Grandpa's, I can leave anytime.""Still, you shouldn't take it for granted!" Alina said, here she was searching for job up and down and Eleanor is taking hers for granted."Durhhhh." Eleanor rolled her eyes."Why are you here?!""Where
*** *** ***Ryan rubbed his temples tiredly, they are in an ice cream shop.Asher had called that they meet up urgently and they've been at the shop for almost thirty minutes, Asher is yet to say anything, instead he kept sneaking glances at his boss."My patience is weaning." Ryan warned, glaring at Asher, "Why did you call me out?"", It's about my brother." Asher muttered, still finding it hard to make up his mind. If Adams ever finds out about what he is about to do, he will never forgive him, definitely not in this lifetime."Is he dead?""What?! No!" Asher shrieked, glaring at Ryan in disbelief."Do you want to go blind?"Asher lowered his eyes quickly, playing with the new toy on his wrist, then scoot his chair closer, "Boss, do you remember this necklace I saw you on three years ago when we met?""Necklace?" Ryan frowned, "The one with pendant similar to a cloud?""Yes, yes! That one."",Yeah, I remember, what about it?""Is it a popular necklace, like can it be gotten anywher
*** *** Mrs Bruce and Sasha sat by the pool, under the sun, tanning their skin."Did you hear that the Morbian company lost a contract worth millions to the Nolvani company? One proposal from the CEO and they ditched the Morbians immediately!" Sasha giggled excitedly."That's wholesome!" Mrs Bruce exclaimed, "That's going to be a great loss to the Morbians.""Serves them about right." Sasha snickered."Still, that doesn't mean they should be looked down upon." Mrs Bruce defended."Are you still blind to see that the Era of the Morbians has ended? The Nolvani are what is reigning now! We should find out who the CEO is and suggest Alina to him if he's single.""And if he is not?""Suggest Alina to him as a second wife. I'm sure Alina wouldn't mind."Mrs Bruce kept silent, thinking. "But you do know the Morbians are topping the list in the country.""They won't be there for long, trust me? If we are not careful, our company is ranking fifth right? We might never be in the top three beca
***"Someone's ringing!!" Grandpa Tony yelled. "You can answer the call Grandpa." Eleanor yelled back sleepily."I mean the door, El, someone is at the door and I'm in study room."Eleanor tears herself away from the bed forcefully. She was finally getting her beauty sleep after days and someone decides to ruin that for her.She heads to the intercom with the sole purpose of telling the person off.She turns on the intercom and a face appeared.She notices the long overgrown beards first then, "Ryan!" My brain screamed, she was fully awake.Why was Ryan back here? To finally ask her to marry him? Or take her on a date?"Grannie!!! It's Ryan!!" Eleanor yelled and pressed open on the intercom then dashed to her room to put on make up and dress nice.Grandpa Tony met Ryan first."Hello Tony." Ryan greeted crisply,"What brings you here?""I came to ask about something from you." "Me?" What could that be?""I want to know if..""If it's about the job..... It's always there for you anyti
*** *** ***Adams enters the apartment angrily, throwing things around. Asher stood at the entrance of his room waiting patiently. If there was one thing he learnt growing up, while Adams seldomly gets pissed, it was to never to interrupt him, whenever he is angry.It took about fifteen minutes before Adams calmed down enough to glare at the damage he had caused.He glances at Asher as if noticing him for the first time. "I woke up, didn't I?""It's fine." Asher smiled reassuringly, "How are you feeling? What's wrong?!""Remember I was done with that case?"" Yes, you should be happy.""I know right, I should be, but that's sly if Jonas Logan, he asked me to look for the thief of his sister. Trish.""Jonas Logan?" Asher echoed in his mind. Could it be he and his brother have been caught in the web of the same family all along? Everything clicked into place now, the family that asked to look for their nephew's corpse is the same family Trish came from, which is his boss' family, whi
