“Good morning, father-in-law," Rex walked down the stairs. "I noticed you have been sleeping in your office for the past two days," he pointed out in a mocking tone.

"Where I sleep is none of your business," Peter replied.

"It's my business, especially since you are old and your bones need a comfortable bed to sleep in," Rex mocked and walked to the door. " I do not want to be the one to be at your bedside since your wife and daughter are not talking to you.

"Soon karma will catch up with you," Peter yelled.

Rex paused at the doorway, turning. The old man was lacking in his vocabulary.

"Karma? Are you sure that is the word you are looking for?" he burst into laughter and decided to walk out.

"You will regret ever turning my family against me! Mark my words, you will regret it!" Peter yelled.

Rex ignored him and joined Patricia and Rose in the car.

He couldn't help but notice that they were using a bigger car and had a personal driver in the front seat.

"What took you so long?" Rose

    Rex followed his wife into Patricia's office and took a seat. He could tell his wife was very angry with him.“What took you two so long?” Patricia asked.Rose raised her hand to stop her husband from revealing where they actually went.“We just bumped into some workers for some pleasantries,” she lied.Patricia stared at the two but decided to go on with the meeting. She wanted to find out how far Rex was with cleaning the dirty money in her company.“25% done, you have to know that moving such amounts of money in huge quantities would attract attention,” he replied.Patricia hit the table in irritation.“You know when the authorities connect Peter to the CIA director, they will find the dirty money,” she was almost yelling.“Mom, calm down,” Rose cut in. “Rex is right, we can't move that money in bulk.”“Sorry if I am pushing, but Peter is a dog with rabies and we are locked in a cage with him,” she explained, her eyes wide. “If we do not kick him out, he will bite us,” she warned.

    The entire restaurant came to a standstill, trying to understand what was going on.One of the workers walked to the table.“What's going on?” she inquired.“You tried to poison my son-in-law, that's what is going on!” Patricia yelled at her.The waitress looked at her in confusion but the sight of the black juice in the corner of her eyes shook her“Wait a minute,” she tried to grab the glass but Rex blocked her.“No one is touching the glass until the FBI get here,” he ordered and sent a text to a certain number.“Most FBI agents are under Peter’s circle,” Patricia reminded him.“I know that, do not worry I have people,” Rex replied and raised his eyes to find Rose shaking in a corner.He walked to her and grabbed her hands, “I am fine, I did not take a sip,” he smiled.“Is it dad, right?" she asked.Rex pressed his lips, trying not to alarm the situation that was already alarmed.“Rex, I am not a kid, I can handle the truth," she reminded.“I am not sure Rosie, let's not jump to co

    The mother and daughter locked eyes, not sure how to react.Rose felt her legs go numb; she needed somewhere to lean or sit.She slowly walked to the nearest chair she could see and took a seat. Her father was one despicable man, and he was not worthy to be called a father.“You brought terrorists into the country?” his wife asked.“No, I did not. He did,” Peter pointed at Rex. “This idiot, our daughter married, should not have gone to Romania and opened the Pandora's box!” Peter yelled.Rex walked to his wife and held her hands that were visibly shaking.“They are going to kill you…” she whispered to him.“No, darling, no one is going to kill me. Your father will get on the phone and call off his stupid dogs!” Rex raised his voice for Peter to hear.Peter chuckled.“You think this is funny!” Patricia yelled.“No, the idiot was supposed to know that big dogs like me should not be touched,” Peter replied. “Yes, I made bad business decisions for the love of money. Decisions that he saw

    Rose quickly walked to the door and locked it behind her.“I can't stand that man!” she yelled.“Why can't he just do the right thing? What happened to the father I grew up with!” she broke down into tears.Rex quickly rushed to her and embraced her in his arms.“Do not worry, soon all this will be over,” he assured her and kissed her on the forehead.“What is your plan?” Patricia asked. “Tell me you have a plan?"Rex led his wife to the bed and helped her take a seat.“We are supposed to be having our first happy months of marriage," Rose kept crying. She wondered what would become of them after ten years when they had no first years of happy marriage.Patricia looked at her daughter and took a seat next to her. “Honey, do not let that man’s evil ruin you,” she rubbed her hand.“Mom, that's easy for you, you do not have his blood running in your veins,” she cried out.Patricia grabbed both her daughter’s hands.“Family is not about blood but about trust and sacrifice,” she said. “If

    Peter Banks closed his eyes, trying to process what he was hearing.“Should I send men to your house to get the answers physically?” the voice on the other end of the phone snapped him out of his thoughts.“I will get my… men on it," Peter quickly replied. "Your men are probably locked up somewhere, Rex Grayson rarely kills,” he added.“I do not care about that! You have twenty-four hours to find my men!” the voice yelled, irritating Peter.The criminal had no power over him, and he did not have the right to command him around.“I said my men will get on it,” he replied and hung up.He got his men on the phone and updated them.“Sir, shouldn't we be tracking Rex?” they asked him.“Rex will be back,” Peter replied and walked out of the room.He was halfway out of his yard when a call from his deputy came in.“Yes?"“Sir, you can't believe what just happened. Remember the ISHA terrorist group?" the deputy asked.Peter swallowed, he could feel his hand shaking already.“Sir, are you ther

    Rex picked up the gun and removed the bullets, throwing them into the glass of juice that was next to Peter.Peter looked at the glass breathing heavily. “Where were we?” he asked. “Oh, on you giving me the names of the terrorists so that I could clean up your stupid mess,” Rex added.Peter slowly placed his hand into his jacket.“I wouldn't do that if I were you,” Rex warned.Peter ignored him and removed his blood pressure medicine bottle. He tried to open it, but his shaky hands could not allow it. For some stupid reason, his hands kept shaking. “I can help with the bottle," Rex offered.“Shut up! Shut up!” Peter cursed.Rex chuckled and went on eating.Peter finally managed to open the bottle, but the contents ended up on the floor from too much shaking. “Oops, can I pick one for you?” Rex offered. “Shut up! Shut up!” Peter lost it, throwing the plate of food and juice on his side of the table and sending everything to the ground.“No, you shut up!" Rex got up and pounced on

    “Boss, wait,” the watchers advised him. They were yet to gather enough information about the terrorists, but one thing they were very sure of was that the terrorists were good hackers.“They are going to see you coming," they warned him.“That's why we have skin masks," Rex replied and removed a silicone face mask and placed it on his face.He looked in the mirror, making sure the mask fit perfectly.White hair and some little wrinkles stared back at him.He was now officially a sixty-something old man.“Is the hotel surveillance on? And I need a room next to Sayad,” he requested.“Sir, all the rooms next to 306 are occupied. This mission is out of the blue and we have not been prepared for it. We need to think, we need time,” they advised him.Rex decided to take a seat back, trying to think. They were right, he was being too fast. Patience was always his game.His phone rang, snapping him out of his thoughts.It was Peter, calling.He did not have time for the stupid old fool, but

    Rex got to work and opened his bag. The first thing he needed was to scan the room and block any hacking devices in the room. He placed his blockers in the four corners, blocking any outside signal, and then began scanning the room corner to corner but did not find anything.“The room is clean, sir,” the watchers confirmed.“Can we get into the next room?” Rex asked.“If you can get one of the bugs into his room,” they replied. “As we speak, we only have access to the hotel surveillance, but it does not cover the rooms,” they explained.Rex closed his eyes, trying to think of the best way to enter the room without force but could not come up with a better plan. The room was probably trapped with all sorts of traps. The enemy he was dealing with was not the typical type that would fight hoping to come out alive but was the type that would not mind killing himself together with the enemy.“Sir, Abdul is out of his room,” they informed him.Rex opened his laptop and logged into the sur

    Rex sat in his office, waiting for the deliberations on his application for the Director position. The supervisors were locked for over an hour, debating while he sat in front of his laptop watching Peter run mad. It was two days in his holding cell, waiting for bail and for his lawyer who was trying to prove that Chelsea was not mentally stable and her confession was not reliable or credible in court. The man was busy tearing into Chelsea’s life and exposing her with a list of all the government officials she once slept with and all the illegal activities she was involved in. Their main goal was to tarnish Chelsea’s name so that she was deemed not credible to confess in any courtroom. Rex did not interfere, he sat back and watched from a distance as the two went on exposing their sex scandal and dirty laundry. Finally, his phone beeped. The supervisors were done. They called him and he entered the office very confident. “Congratulations Rex Grayson, you are officially the

    Peter Banks was placed in handcuffs and taken to the van that drove him to the private detention center. He was calm and did not show any signs of resistance or frustration. He was more interested in the person who was going to lead the investigation, considering the dirt he had on all the directors and deputies in various agencies. That was why he was untouchable; everyone was dirty and was supposed to know not to go poking in other people’s business. He was taken into a room, and in minutes, his supervisors and deputy walked in.“I will advise everyone to think or visit their lawyers before they say anything here,” he warned in an orderly tone.The door opened, and Rex walked in.“What the fuck is he doing here!” he yelled.“Rex is now part of our team and is leading this investigation,” the deputy announced, sending Peter slamming on the chair.He looked at his supervisor.“Last we checked, you are the one who recommended him, and it took him only a day to get a confession,” the

    Rex headed for the NSA building and could see cars following him. He looked in the mirrors and stepped on the gas.The confession was going to reach the tribunal whether he was alive or dead.“Sir, take your next exit, we will block the cars,” the watchers assured him.Rex made a turn, and his phone rang.He looked at the caller, and it was Peter.He answered it, wanting to hear the old fool’s voice one last time.“Where is my daughter!” Peter yelled.“Cremated in a vessel,” Rex replied.Peter paused, his breath audible.“Do not worry, they placed her in two vessels, and I intend to bring one to your prison cell, plus my drug so that you get to live longer and save your sentence,” Rex replied and hung up.“You stupid fool! I will blow up! How could you cremate my daughter without me!” he yelled, but Rex had already hung up on him.He dialed the line, but it went on ringing.Frustrated, he called the men who were following Rex.They needed to abduct Rex, dead or alive.“How far! Why am

    Rex slowly pulled away from the hug, tears streaming down his cheeks.“Ever since that woman walked into your life, you made her your priority and then your son came, and finally you were on your road to recovery,” he added and looked down. “You were nearly there Rex, you were almost there.”Tears kept flowing.It was his father’s job to say the right thing at the moment. Rex was his son, and condemning him was not his part.They went on with the funeral procession, after which we headed to one of Rex’s mansions Rex’s father walked up to him with Sam in his hands.“The little man missed you," he said.Rex smiled and held the baby in my arms.His father cleared his throat.“You are coming with us, right?" he asked.Rex kept his gaze on the baby.“Rex, this is where the vengeance ends. That man killed his own daughter, and as a father, that would be the worst kind of karma,” he stated.Rex kept staring at the baby.His phone beeped; it was the watchers.He gave the phone one glance and

    “Where is my daughter?” Peter kept demanding from the hospital administrator.His daughter was supposed to be at St Luke, the other officers confirmed that's where they sent the body, but only to be told the hospital had no idea where the body was.He called his deputy, who kept ignoring his calls.Everyone he was calling had no idea where she was taken, and neither did he have an idea of Chelsea’s whereabouts.He could smell Rex all over everything. Even in his daughter’s death, the stupid boy was being petty.He called Rex’s line but could not get through.Pissed, he called his men to turn the city upside down until Rex was found.“No, no, find Chelsea first! Find that stupid bitch!” he screamed.Meanwhile, Rex and Patricia stood over Rose’s body, clad in protective clothing.Patricia could not stop the tears. She had a lot of regrets. If only she had not called her daughter back or turned to alcohol or cried over the stupid divorce. Her daughter had found a life with the man she l

    The paramedics took Patricia away in the ambulance while Rex fixed his eyes on Peter, whose face was as grey as water-soaked chalk dust. It was the old man’s fault; he released Chelsea. He sent her to the function to kill him. He was the only one who had the power to infiltrate her into his security team. On the other hand, Peter could feel his legs numbing up; his daughter was dead. He killed his daughter; it was his fault. That was not a fact he could try to make excuses for or try to pull himself out of. He had known his family was going to be at the event, yet he risked it all. His only concentration was his target, to kill the target. To kill Rex Grayson He was led inside, ignoring Rex’s vicious eyes. He had expected the boy to be attacking him or throwing rants, but instead, he just sat there staring at him. “We finally have footage of what transpired,” the deputy announced and called Peter and other heads of the other agencies into a private room where they got to watch

    Time froze for both Rex and Chelsea as they watched Rose land on the ground with a hit.Chelsea was supposed to shoot again, and this time she was not going to miss because Rex’s attention was on his wife, crying and trying to wake her up, but she just stood there.She knew she had messed up. Peter Banks was going to have her head, and she was not going to see any future.Peter Banks was supposed to give her a new identity and a new life. He even promised her a new country of her choice and a rich man to marry.But she could see all that going down the drain. A big hit to the head came from behind her as security personnel ran to the scene and disarmed her, sending her to the ground.Rex placed his hands over the bullets, calling out for his wife as blood began coming out of her mouth.“Rose! Rose! Rose, stay with me!” he yelled, his eyes darting around for help.He could tell the bullet went straight for her heart, and things were not good as she could barely open her eyes.However,

    “How the fuck did you know about the charity event?” Rose yelled. “The invitations are not out yet, but you already know about the event?”Rex quickly got on his laptop, checking for any breach in security, but he found none.“Rose, the old board that you are trying to change was appointed by me, so they informed me about the event that you plan to replace them,” Peter explained.Rose slowly calmed down; she had completely forgotten why she wanted to change the board.“You are not invited. If you had cared, you would have called the day I gave birth!” Rose yelled, hanging up.She turned to face her husband. “He went snooping around the board, spying on me instead of reaching out to me!” she yelled, irritated.“I am going to block him. I do not want to speak to him or see his face!” she added.Rex got up from where he was seated and placed the baby in the crib.He walked to her and gave her a hug.“Bae, forget about him. The charity is not going to plan itself,” he advised her and pla

    Rex was tempted to scream but restrained his excitement. Counting chickens before they hatch was never his style.But for eight months, he had tried to find a crime that would land the fool with more than ten years but always came up short.The closest he ever got was the money laundering, but because he cleaned both his mother-in-law and wife’s companies, he had automatically made himself an accomplice, which Peter would use against him.But now, with the CIA director awake, the flash, and a terrorist willing to confess, Peter was as good as gone.He was tempted to run after his wife and tell her the good news but restrained himself again.He was going to tell her everything after the investigations were done.He got up and took a shower, smiling and picturing how life with Peter locked up was going to be.He was going to be free, and there was a possibility of not leaving the country and bringing his family to join him and his wife.He finished his bath and headed out to meet with t
