The police dazed at him at the remarks that sounded hilarious. The police had to fake a laugh, thinking that Primo was joking. That laugh, however, only lasted a few seconds when Primo didn’t laugh with him. Staring at him with his surprised face, the police ended up gaping his mouth open, expecting him to elaborate his remarks.“Wait… did you actually mean it, Sir?” The police stuttered in Primo’s presence who’s inches taller than him. He stared at Prio cluelessly, feeling as though his job was mocked and degraded by this man. Although he felt somehow insulted, he still couldn’t seem to bring himself to open his mouth and talk back to him. This man just has a different aura that he cannot figure out, but could completely feel it.The police tried to look at Primo in the eyes, only to be the first one to break off the gaze because of something unidentifiable emitting from his eyes–something that’s not ordinary. Though he cannot name it, the police just ended up listening to his instin
The next day, they were shocked with another news again–well, particularly, Primo who couldn’t believe what happened. Just like last night, he received a call from Samuel about the incident that happened in his company. Today, another incident happened. It was the news that they woke up to early in the morning that Primo had to leave earlier than he used to. “What is it again?” Primo asked Samuel with his stern face meeting the gazes of the shocked and scared employees. Instead of answering him, Samuel just directly led him to the scene, where a lot of morning employees gathering around instantly greeted him to which he didn’t give a damn to pay his attention.Noticing his presence, the gathering employees then made their way to let him see. Contrary to last night where he met the deceased at the hospital, this time, the corpse was still found lying on the cold floor with the eyes wide open and soaked in his own pool of blood. Primo’s eyes narrowed at the sight. He stared at the bloo
As Manuel was about to stop by the company, Primo suddenly commanded him to go straight to the hospital where the person who died at his company was instantly brought to—which is the same as to where Lily is now. They were then greeted with his employees who were primary witnesses of his death. Georgia and Primo instantly separated ways when Georgia heard someone sobbing behind the curtain of one of the beds. Slowly, she walked to that and eventually found her guts to sway it open, just to see Lily holding on to her unconscious uncle."Lily..." Georgia gasped upon seeing the situation as her eyes slightly widened at the unconscious old man. Hearing her voice, Lily bent upward to meet her worried face, while Georgia saw hers coated with tears. She immediately opened her arm wide open to embrace her.She had never seen this vulnerable side of this woman. She knew her as lively and easy-going. But to see her this so emotional, it feels like Georgia has found her younger sibling that nev
For her long dead father, Georgia didn’t expect any of these. Her late father who was already resting in paradise… Her father who has long been dead. How can such two connections collide in the present? How can her late father’s name be brought up in this present time? Georgia’s mind was already a wreck. Though, there was no definite proof to conclude the involvement of her father. The fact that the name of the supposedly resting soul is now brought up from the grave just bothers her.In the end, Georgia breathed in sharply, and affirmed herself. “I hope it’s nothing serious.” She whispered through her teeth as her eyes gazed at the landscape of the night view through the glass wall.“Right. Another thing, Mi Amore,” Primo’s voice budged her from staring blankly at the breathtaking view. She turned her head to his direction, only to see him walking toward her with another paper in his hand. “This is what I told you about.” Primo then handed her the papers that contained the activities
Herald stared at Emilio with his deep eyes. By the looks of this man, it seemed as though he was anticipating his presence. It looked like he knew he was coming here. Herald looked at him sitting on his lovely chair with his legs crossed. And it felt weird for some reason, because another person snapped his mind who also did the same thing–except that person had the smile to welcome him, not this mischievous smile.“How bold of you to think that way.” Sarcastically, Herald responded. Well, Emilio indeed had been trying to invite him back to the company. Even though Emilio made it sound kind and considerate, Herald doesn’t just fall for it. He already had the taste of what it was like working here–he doesn’t want to experience the same shit again. “I just want to visit an old acquaintance, what do you think?” Herald and then, lifting one end of his lips. Then, his eyes averted to the interior of his office that changed a lot since he was here. It just looked like the old building of F
“Herald Juancho, he was once one of the Freegal ten years ago. He was the manager of the financial team. According to what we found out, he was close to the unnamed CEO back then.” Primo stated as his eyes occasionally glanced at the warm paper that just released out of the printer. The moment Georgia asked him about the old man, he immediately clicked on Manuel to find out as much information about him as possible.He didn’t know about these things when he first met him back then. Primo only knew the surface level such as to when he first met him such as being associated with Emilio.“There wasn’t much information about him in the past, but there’s a current one that would surely surprise you–or not. Herald knows Emilio Granger. He knows him more than anyone else.” He added. Primo didn’t exactly know how deeply the old man knew the Freegal’s chairman, but his encounter with him in the past had already said so.After all, it was Herald who signalled Freegal–despite him already quittin
