Jasper can't believe his ears. Adriana worked her ass off to get that contract and they are going to throw it all away?! “That's madness, you can't do that!” Jasper protests. “Mister Banks, you are not even part of this family!” Thomas shuts him up. “I'm afraid, but I will have to agree with my brother,” Nate says. “And Adriana, where is she?” “It was an emergency, she had to just travel very quickly!” He lies.“Why hasn't she been picking up my calls?” Mister William Sanchez asks. “I don't know, but she will be back soon!” Jasper is staring at Andrew, but Andrew is not even moved. Nate Sanchez is sitting back and enjoying it. He had waited for this moment for a very long time. He has been helping to run the family business for decades now, but his father refused to retire and make him the official owner. He was very happy and even contributed to getting Thomas and his family kicked out, but he was outraged when his father, Mister William gave Adriana a promotion and refused to
As soon as they get to the house, Thomas takes out the bottle of wine that he has been hiding for some time and pops out the cork. “This is the day that we have been waiting and praying for!” Thomas rejoices. “Ruby now has a job and our life is about to get better!” Doreen hugs Ruby very tightly. Her eyes are filled with tears, but she quickly wipes it away. “But what about Mister William Sanchez? He didn't protest about it, but he didn't look happy.” Andrew points out. “Yeah, he probably isn't happy about it, but if I do this job well, he will have no other choice but to add me back into his team.” Ruby says. She passes a glass of wine to Andrew and kisses him on his cheek. Thomas is so happy that he plays some music and with the aid of his walking stick, he starts to dance with his wife. Ruby and Andrew stand by the side, watching them with happy smiles. “I'm very proud of you,” he says to her as they look at her parents. She leans against his shoulder. “This wouldn't have
Nate is covered in shame as he cannot believe that Andrew threw him to the ground. He stands up to his feet and tries to attack Andrew, but Andrew grabs Nate's hand in the tightest grip that he has ever felt in his life. “Try to hit my wife again, and I will break every bone in your body.” Andrew whispers to him with a calm smile and Nate is immediately covered in chills. Andrew lets go of him and Nate takes several steps away so that he can be far away from Andrew. Just to be safe. “You fools think that I'm scared of you? Even you, this rat called Andrew?” He points at them. “My father took too long to get rid of you people, but me? I will do it as quickly as the snap of my fingers. You will regret this.” “I'm not quitting, uncle, and I'm not scared of you.” Ruby says. She has been living in fear of her extended family, but she won't anymore. Nate spits on the ground as he curses them under his breath. He goes back to his car and drives away with great speed. “Great! Everyda
The address that Andrew gets is somewhere deep in the woods. So deep that he has to leave Ruby's car at a safe area and walk the rest of the day. He doesn't want to ruin her car. After walking for almost twenty minutes, he finds an abandoned building in the heart of the woods. It was an abandoned mansion that was never finished. Andrew notices the big jeeps and the miscreants hanging on the vehicles with guns. His mind flashes back to the information that Tina sent to him a few hours ago, information about Rakeem Blackhood. He runs a mob that fled the city a few months ago because the police wanted to take him down. He was able to bribe a few government officials and now he is back in the city to trouble the people. He had no idea that Andrew had been tracking and patiently waiting for him. His name was dropped by Casper Romanoff as the second person who has information about Andrew's family, so he doesn't know it yet, but he has fallen into A
Nate waits and waits for Rakeem Blackhood’s call to come that he has done the job and killed Andrew, but nothing comes. Nate doesn't give up just like that, he waits for a while and holds on to hope, but when he gets a message that Ruby has started putting things together for the contract, he decides that his plan has failed, so he kicks starts his next plan. He angrily walks into his office and makes a phone call. “Hello, is this the office of the low cost estate in the south side of New York?” “Good evening, sir. How can I help you?” “I want to purchase a house with the number 217.” Nate says. “I'm sorry, but that house is not on sale…” “A million dollars!” Nate says. “But, sir…” “Two million!” Nate says with spite. He is not backing down at all. The person at the other end of the phone starts to stammer. The houses are not for sale, but he can't reject such an amount of money. Why does this man want such a poor house in the first place? He sounds like he has a lot of mone
Nate rushes to the ruins and falls to his knees. He hopes that this is a dream, but it's not. His servants look at him with pity as he cries shamelessly, as he beats the ground with his hands. “What happened to my house?! What happened to my house?!” His chef comes closer to the place. He is scared of moving any faster. “Sir, a bulldozer came and tore the place down. We tried to call you, but you were not picking!” A bulldozer?! Did the people he hired to bring down Thomas Sanchez's house mistakenly destroy his mansion?! He stands up to his feet and angrily takes out his phone. He is going to sue them and make their life miserable. It took him many years to build the house of his dreams! But before he can call them, another unexpected call enters his phone. It's David Ham, the person in charge of the estate. Ah, maybe Mister Ham has heard what happened and he is trying to offer his help. Nate picks the call immediately. “Hello, Mister Ham? I'm sure you must have heard what happe
Ruby takes her new job very seriously. She believes that if she does it well enough, her grandfather that hates her family will have no other choice than to hire her again. It's a miracle that Adriana has vanished into the thin air, but Ruby is happy because this has given her the chance to shine. She wakes up very early the next morning, early before the sun rises and prepares everything. Uma's uniform has been ironed and her lunch has been prepared. She writes a note on the a paper and places it next to Andrew on the pillow. She kisses his forehead very gently so that he doesn't wake up from his slumber. She tiptoes out of the room and Andrew immediately opens his eyes with a sigh. He hasn't been asleep the whole time, he was just pretending so that she wouldn't feel bad for waking him up. The thing was that she didn't wake him up. He has been up for a long time. The military has altered Andrew's brain chemistry in such a way that he could function well with just two hours of s
“Please, don't drop me! I have children! I have aged parents!” Mister Rufus begs. “And you didn't think of that before you disrespected her?” Andrew asks calmly. The other men look in shock, even Ruby didn't believe that he would do something like this. She has her hand over her mouth as she watches what is happening. The man's feet is dangling in the air! “Please, please, I will do anything!” He begs. “I am sorry that I disrespected your wife?!” “Why are yours saying sorry to me when it wasn't me that you disrespected?” Andrew tilts his head. “She is right there, apologize to her.” The man swallows a gulp, but he doesn't open his eyes. His eyes are tightly shut that his face appears to be in a grimace. “Please, sir, don't make me look down. I have a fear of heights.” He begs. “Trust me, I don't care for your phobias. Look at her right now and apologize, or I drop you like a hot potato.”So even though the man's heart is beating and he is very scared, he has to force himself to
