Jasmine was silent for a while until she finally replied to the words of her former co-worker."Adele, I'm Jasmine Perto.""Oh, Jasmine, why did you just contact me now?"Jasmine smiled awkwardly when she heard the words from Adele, her former co-worker. Adele is very chatty and friendly, unlike Jasmine who is not very pleasant and does not have many friends in her work environment."I tried to contact you a few months ago, but your phone number can only be reached now.""You're right. I forgot about that. I had to do that so that people in the police would no longer contact me.""How's Steve and Anna? Are they all right?" Adele asked enthusiastically. She had not exchanged news with Jasmine in a long time, and when Jasmine contacted her first, she was excited."'They're good", Jasmine answered."Oh good then, how about your Mother-in-law? Is she also okay?"Jasmine was silent when Adele asked about her mother-in-law, who is still lying in the ICU."The red ginseng I gave her that tim
Richard was sitting in his office, his eyes staring out the window at the people passing by under his office building. His mind drifted to a woman who suddenly came to his office and offered an illicit item. Richard wasn't stupid. Even though he didn't know the woman, he knew she must be working for someone from the dark world. Richard was fed up with having to pretend to run a company that he thought was very monotonous and not very profitable, unlike his business in the dark world, where profits didn't have to be reduced by disproportionate costs."Chansu, do you remember the name of the blonde woman who suddenly came to my office yesterday?"Chansu which is Richard's confidant, nodded his head. Richard was the worst when remembering someone's name, especially if it was the first time that person had met him. Because of that, he always asked Chansu to remember everyone who met Richard."Adele. The woman's name is Adele," explained Chansu."The Information about her?" asked Richard a
Adele's real motive (Flashback)Jasmine was walking in a hurry, grocery bags filling her hands. Now and then she glanced at the watch that was wrapped around her left wrist. Jasmine was going to cook for a small dinner party, today she was finally able to get together with her little family and have dinner together, this probably wouldn't have happened if Adele hadn’t loaned her the money. This party was also to express her gratitude to Adele and as a banquet because they had not seen each other for a long time. However, Jasmine was still curious about what Adele wanted to talk about.When Jasmine arrived at her apartment, she was immediately greeted with a warm hug by her daughter, Anna. Anna still wasn't feeling well, and it was already her third day without school."Where is Dad? why he haven't come home yet?"Jasmine smiled seeing her daughter's spoiled nature.''He will be home, soon. You just rest in your room, I will cook you porridge.”Anna nodded when she heard Jasmine's word
Richard reads the results of his Casino's financial statements. Now and then, his eyes glanced at Chansu from behind the paper he was reading. Chansu stood with his head down as if he didn't dare look into Richard's eyes."Explain it" said Richard in a cold tone.Richard placed the papers on his desk and folded his arms. His eyes were fixed on Richard."Why? You don't want to answer it?" Richard said again."Well, boss, umm profit this month.."Chansu looked nervous and couldn't get the words he would say properly. His eyes were busy looking here and there.''PRANGGG…''Richard threw the cigarette ashtray on his desk towards Chansu. Chansu shuddered in horror as the crystal ashtray nearly hit his head."Say something about it. Or I'll fuckin’ shoot you on the head"Richard stood up from his chair and pulled the small gun under his grey coat."No no Boss, Please don't.""Say it quickly."Richard pointed his gun right at Chansu’s head.''Gulp''Chansu swallowed his saliva. He was scared
Anna looked out of her window now and then during the last lesson. Her mind couldn't focus at all during the last lesson. Her eyes wandered around his classroom, and saw some of her classmates sleeping with books covering their faces. The boredom and the desire to get out of class quickly filled Anna's mind. Even though she still has to work after school,she enjoys it.''Kringgg….''The sound of the school bell freed Anna's mind. After the teacher left the classroom, Anna hurriedly also left the classroom. Anna is like her mother, a loner type, but she will show her true nature and be cheerful and talkative when meeting people who make her feel comfortable.As she walked towards the school gates, she saw a very familiar man standing. Anna quickened her pace and approached the man."Mark" called Anna.He turned around as soon as he heard his name being called. Anna was silent when she saw Mark's facial expression, which looked misserable, with cuts on the corners of his lips and bruise
Steve and Jasmine are standing in front of a casino that doesn't look too fancy. The two of them looked at each other before finally entering the Casino. They looked around the Casino area, which looked elegant and classy. Almost all those who came wore formal clothes such as suits and dresses. Classical music played by the Casino makes the atmosphere in the casino, calmer. The luxurious chandelier looks right in the middle of the high-roofed casino room. The combination of gold and black colours adds to the elegant impression of the Casino.Steve and Jasmine look different from the other guests. Because only those who wear clothes and shoes that are not formal. That made one of the people in charge of the Casino come to Steve and Jasmine and ask them about their real purpose."I want to meet SB" Steve said, he’s handing the black business card to a man with glasses and a black folder.The smooth-haired man looked at the business card carefully and nodded his head."This way, please."
Mark's POV “What do you want to eat, Mark?'' Anna asked me while we were at a fast food restaurant. I wasn't hungry and didn't want Anna to buy me food. "Don't want to eat?" she asked again. "She’s absolutely loves talking." '’The one who needs to be eaten, is my mother. Not me.'' Anna rolled her eyes lazily when I replied. ''Never mind, I'm too lazy to argue with you.'' As usual, she ignored my words and did as she pleased by ordering the food she liked. ''We'll just buy some fruits, for your mother'' she said slowly. I smiled upon hearing that. Although Anna is a person who likes to do what she wants, she has a kind and understanding nature. Even though we are 4 years apart in age, and I am already in college while Anna is still in high school, that does not become an obstacle to our friendship. After buying food, we went straight to the hospital. The place where my mother is being treated. Thank God my mother is okay and only has bruises on her arm, but I'm worried about
The long-awaited auction (Flashback) The night atmosphere in the city of Casablanca looks beautiful with the street lights that adorn the whole town. Seen several black luxury cars walking hand in hand through the streets of Casablanca. In one of the luxury cars, there is Richard, who is busy looking at his cell phone screen. He doesn't seem to listen to Chansu, who continues talking next to him. Richard's POV Tonight, The big auction I'd been waiting for for months finally happened. I've sacrificed my pride by obeying all the wishes of the Minister Serge, damn it to get those weapons out of the container at the port. And tonight, I'm going to show those guns up for auction. Tonight the atmosphere in Casablanca somehow looks very beautiful, unlike usual. Maybe it's because I'm happy or because William cooked me my favorite dish. I asked Chansu to play classical music, and it calmed my mind. While I was enjoying the music, the cell phone in my jacket pocket vibrated. I saw a message
