Really Dirty Business CHAPTER LI: COMPROMISED
Dinner was served in compact but classy bento boxes. It set everyone into a more amiable and talkative mood. And Nate was the first one to make his report...“So, right now, that’s the status of the search. I’ve not stopped connecting the authorities and our other contacts. The Nanny is more worried about the lack of bodies since we won’t be able to file cases against possible suspects without a proper death certificate.””And how many of our girls have disappeared so far, Coordinator?” ”Four now by my count, Fixer.””Ohhh and they happen to be our veterans too. It’s such a crying shame! All those beautification processes that I’ve wasted on them…””And that’s the breadth and length of your concern for them Designer?””Well, I could have used it on the others since they won’t be working for us anymore! I’m sorry if I have offended your delicate senses, Doctor!””Mariposa, please…””Wait, are we supposed to discuss this while Bien and Rina are still absent?”As if she heard Lyra, The N

His bedroom’s portable landline rings...”Hello?””Bro…””Wait… let me step out of the room… my wife is already asleep…””Whoa, that early?””Age can take its toll, my friend... even with those as strong as she…. There, out on the balcony now... What has happened?””He called. He said that we’ve been compromised. I needed to follow his bloody orders or risk exposing myself.””Wait, does this mean that you’ve left your home unguarded?””I needed to leave, damn it! I had no fucking choice!””Oh for Pete's sakes! You didn’t just take his word now, did you?””I did and that’s why I’m fucking calling you now. Made a stop to make this call via a rented landline before I head out.””Alright, sorry for being upset but thank you for informing me first about this sudden... situation. I’ll contact our people at the Midnight Resort. They might know something about this.””Just don’t give me away, okay? Not yet…””No, of course not. I may act as though I'm harmless but I’m no fool.””Yeah, I’m the
Really Dirty Business CHAPTER LIII: THE CALM
Hero was drinking from the bottle again.He actually wanted to do more than just drink. As a matter of fact, The Interviewer strongly needs to punch a wall several times until his hands no longer felt anything... Or the wall he had chosen to aim his fury on had bled red. But he knew that would be useless since it would mean physically healing for quite a long time and additional work for the Fixer. And he knew the man is about to leave due to “business” and might not be back for some time.Even now, Doc Mendez has already called the best surgeon that he has mentored in his enhancement clinic and has passed Nick’s case over to him. No way should I put the doctor’s schedule on hold just because I'm being affected emotionally over this recent “development”.It has taken First Lieutenant Bien Akihiro Agplaza years to master his emotions, to the point that he can find it acceptable to torture a supposed loyal employee that he and his parents have treated as friend and family for the long
Really Dirty Business CHAPTER LIV: FRIENDS
The Nanny had the rest of the management team scurrying to finish her orders the minute Nick was picked up by Doctor Mendez’ ambulance.It was already near midnight so they had to finish as much as they can since The Professor and The Interviewer had classes in less than 12 hours and The Fixer was scheduled to leave the country in about four…”Mariposa, Nate… let’s check which room would be good enough for the board members' meeting.””Of course daahhhling... wait, I have the key cards right here… let's go!””Wait... Nate... NATE!””H-huh! What! Oh Doc, Rina, you’re both back here!””Will you stop playing your games, take off your ear buds and join us now, young man!””Alright, alright Doc! Sorry, these have noise cancellation features so I really can’t hear anyone…””Then use only one of those and not both! What the heck!””Sure, sure Nanny… Uhhhh… Where’s The Interviewer?””Yes… and the Professor, hmmmmm?””They have unfinished business upstairs. They’ll be following us later. Meanwh
Really Dirty Business CHAPTER LV: THE STORM
"I assure you, brother, I will attend the meeting as promised. See you then," says the speaker in the common Japanese Engrish.After hanging up from The Major’s call, that’s when the power outage hit.I was waiting for this to finally happen. I’m surprised that it took them this long…The retired Japanese businessman, who is presently involved in investing in various businesses outside his country, was also a believer of the paranormal and supernatural. So when his instincts begin to give him little signs of impending disaster, he takes it seriously.Like this one...He received the small box containing the square red cloth about a couple of days ago and instantly knew he needs to ready himself. And somehow, choosing to stay in his ultra-modern mansion that’s built on his own personal island was the safest option he can think of. It’s so far out to sea that you would need your own helicopter or yacht to get there.Going into his version of self-exile is not so difficult since he’s not
Really Dirty Business CHAPTER LVI: MEETINGS
The final decision made by the management team around 20 hours ago to identify the meeting’s venue ended up with choosing the third business conference hall. After all, it was the smallest and most intimate meeting venue in the whole of the main branch’s commercial complex.It was to this very simple but modern-looking conference hall that the remaining board members have agreed to hold the board members' emergency meet up. And no one can blame their hesitation to leave the security of their own buildings and home...Their numbers have been reduced due to the four known deaths. Obviously, none of them were happy about it, especially since many of those remaining are looking for someone to blame.”This all started when we agreed to your idea of turning the business legit!” exclaims a short and pudgy man, Engr. Merlin M. Miranda aka The Engineer, who was earlier told to not light up his cigar while in the conference room.”There was never any problem before this! Why can’t we just stay t
Really Dirty Business CHAPTER LVII: SMOKESCREEN
“Nate, you’re all being asked to make an appearance here at the conference room. Make sure the Analyst has all her presentation material, alright? See you in five.”“Make it ten, she’s still outside. She said she needs to use the bathroom.”“Did you give her a key card for the manager’s lounges? I forgot to give her one for personal use.””Yeah, I let her use mine for the while. It can open all our bathrooms, anyway.”“Alright, update me, please. Will inform the board members when you’re on your way.”++++++++++Meanwhile, both military men - the uncle and the nephew - are already inside the high-end, hotel-like bathroom for the management staff that’s just a few feet away from the conference room. For convenience's sake, every floor had one. ”Antonio mentioned that there was an incident here last night?” asks the General while zipping down and aiming his impressive tackle at one of the modern-looking automatic urinals. Bien locks the door before answering, “Yes, there was. We identi
Really Dirty Business CHAPTER LVIII: SESSIONS
It was a peaceful week. Too peaceful, if one was going to be truly honest about it.The two deaths that were announced in the media about a week before, which are both similar in nature to two other supposed unrelated murders, are now being investigated. Thankfully, these four victims are close friends and are all connected with at least a dozen enterprises where they have worked or invested in the past. Due to this, the authorities have not singled out The Midnight Resort as a possible reason behind these crimes, especially since Akihiro Yamaguchi’s severed head never reached the police. And due to the Resort’s board members not being part of the possible suspect list, they have been able to take flights out of the country to go into hiding. These affluent personalities do have their own safe houses, and some have decided to use the properties that are not publicly known and are quite a distance away,Not that this kind of decision was effective for The Investor but since none of th
