“Cheers!” Nica shouted as she raised the glass. I also raised my wine glass and shouted as well. I felt dizzy, but I'm not drunk yet. Of course, not yet. I also found out Greyson’s ex’s name is Angel. Wow, see? From face to name, she's perfect. We have nothing against her.
“Nics that's enough. You're drunk, you and Callixta. You both need to go home already.” Stewart said with concern. He didn't drink after we came here. He just watched us as if we were going to do something bad.
“Let's drink, babe”, Nica stood up but suddenly sat down as well. Stewart immediately comes to her side to back her up. But alcohol has already hit her. She wiped his hands, attempting to hold her for support.
“I can still stand, Stewart. You can eat someone's face here. Go, shoo!”
After what happened that night, Greyson and I avoid each other. I've never been touched nor kissed like that. After the make out session in the car, he left me inside. Our body betrays us when we feel the heat. I also don't know what happened to Nica and Stewart that night. We left them in the bar eating each other faces, giving them privacy and a chance to confess to each other. I also came back from training and practicing. I felt myself useless after the failure of my first mission. I walked to kitchen to get whatever I can eat, or I'll talk to Maria. If I ever have money and power in such groups, I’ll use it to find my real family, as well as to drag down Belle’s company.“A penny for your thoughts?” Maria interrupted me.“Hi, Maria. What are you going to cook for today?” I asked her, feeling excited about her cooking ski
At exactly eleven in the evening, I started to climb the tree with dangling leaves to the garden of the house. I clung to the tree and slowly climbed into its branches. My breathing is unstable, my heart thumps faster than normal.“I can do this. I did these hundreds of times.” I whispered to myself. Yeah, this is my secret passage, but I've also fallen and broken a few times because of it. While walking, I looked at the beautiful thing, the light is still on, meaning they are still awake. I move my right foot tracing the branch of the tree, but it's not here. It was late when I realized they had already cut it. I jumped down, and I felt myself falling in the flowers."Fuck”, I cursed while holding my butt as it collapsed. I scratched my head full of leaves and plants,, so I picked them up one by one and removed them. I heard a small chuckle i
A minute before I got in the car, the alarm of the whole house suddenly sounded. A van came out of the house and shot at our car."Fuck”, the driver cursed. He maneuvered it and made it run. The Scorpions in the black van that serves as our back-up was now rushing back home to meet those chasing us. I heard multiple gunshots and an explosion. Our car was already out of the villa, so the sounds of gunshots gradually died down. I sighed in relief, knowing that we survived, and I could go home alive. I turned to the car to see if anything had followed, but our backs seemed to have fixed it. After a while, the van of elite Scorpions tailed us.“Clear.” I heard the man in the van informed Marcus.I laid my head in the car seat, removing my mask and bonnet. Finally, I can sleep now. I fell asleep in the
Days had passed after when we bathed in the swimming pool. Everyone in the mansion seems to be busy with their lives and work.I heard that Tita Medly was about to die when they saw Tito Arc in his office, who had cut off two fingers. He was hospitalized too because maybe he was found for a long time, so he also lost a lot of blood. I do not regret what I did. This is just the beginning of my revenge. They just wait because I am the karma in their lives.Grayson is also handling the launch of new products from our stolen blueprints and business plans. Belle's company will surely know who stole their plans and product ideas. It may give them an answer, but they still can't hit Blast.I was currently in the living room to watch my favorite cartoons when Greyson’s car arrived. I ignored that because I was f
We arrived at the venue early, as expected. People are starting to fill the huge venue full of decorations, chairs, and tables. Some business personnel are chattering, socializing and taking this event as an opportunity to catch a big fish who will invest in their businesses. We used the route at the back of the building to avoid unnecessary attention as well as to avoid media reporters. Greyson walked me holding my waist, leading to the second floor of the building where I can see the whole venue in the first floor. The lights are located here preventing people down to not see whoever is here–on top.Greyson left for a while checking everything before this event starts, leaving me here with my own. I scan the whole area looking for familiar faces, but I can't pinpoint who they are. I'm not really a social person before that will communicate and socialize with others. Another reason is, my form
“Daddy, I want that teddy bear.” Said a small child to the man she's with. She dragged his clothes to convince him more.“Which one? The blue one or the yellow bear?”“I want black, Dad. Don't they have that?” The child asks her father innocently.“Excuse me Miss, do you have a black life-size teddy bear?” The man asked in the saleslady.“Yes sir, wait for a minute we'll just take it from the stockroom”, the girl informed them that made the small girl squealed in happiness and excitement.The saleslady came back after a few minutes carrying a huge black teddy bear. The small girl ran towards her, hugging it. I watched them as tears flowed to my eyes. I felt that I am
“This isn't true”, I shake my head multiple times while my tears flow freely in my face.“How come? We grieve for you! Mom and dad blamed me for your death! No, I forgot they are your parents, not mine! And now you are here like you never died in our eyes ?!”How come she's alive? We saw her in the hospital bathing her blood. The doctor soon declared she's dead. Is this miracle or she fooled us?“Callixta, that's enough!” Greyson shouted at me with anger. I didn't mind him, they are all liers.“Calli, let me explain please”, Allizah walks toward my direction attempted to hold me, but I pushed her hands away from me.“You know how much they hate me! But why did you leave me and worst you bring another huge reason for them to hate me more! I thought you will never leave nor betray me like this, but I am wrong. You are also, like them, a liar. “I walk backwards, still not removing my sight on her. She
“ What do you mean, Callixta is in the Monteverde's territory?! She was in the forest, right?! How come, Alex?!” I shouted distressed to one of my men. How lucky Monteverde are to be met by her even in the heart of forest.“ We still don't know sir, but our men said that she's in Ronaldo Monteverde's house living for a while. Our spies in them confirmed it too. But we think she doesn't know anything about her environment, Don. She's still clueless.”“ Give her the eyes of the spies, and report everything to me. I still need her for my plans, don't let her be in their side.”“ Got it, Don. I think Callixta will be working to Ronaldo too in his house or somewhere to support her living. ““Just in
