LOGINWhen they arrived at Montemayor Inc., Philip was already waiting for them, so he followed as well. The President’s secretary stood up at Montemayor Inc. because of their arrival. He recognized Agustin, so he quickly called inside the office. His eyes widened when Agustin and the others walked straight toward the office, so he immediately blocked them.
“Mr. President instructed that no one should be allowed in because he has a visitor,” the secretary said nervously.When they arrived at Montemayor Inc., Philip was already waiting for them, so he followed as well.

Agustin turned to the secretary and looked at him, which only made him more afraid. “Open the door. They know me,” Agustin said blankly. “But, sir—” he stopped when Philip faced the secretary. “Ah, Mr. Secretary, while our boss is still in a good mood, you should open the door,” Philip coaxed the secretary. “Tsk. Are you going to open the door, or am I going to open it myself?” Agustin asked impatiently, his expression still blank as he stared at t
“Agustin...” Agustin blinked when Gabriel sat down beside him. He opened his arms, and Gabriel hugged him. “Are you okay?” Gabriel asked, lying against Agustin’s chest. “I’m not. And I’ll never be fine,” Agustin said quietly, running his fingers through Gabriel’s hair. “I know. I feel your anger. I feel the demon inside you.” Gabriel looked up at him and held on tighter because Agustin’s face was still dark. “You know what? Thank you for everything you’ve done for me. Thank you for saving me...” He sighed. “I don’t want to interfere with your revenge, but until when, Agustin? How long will you let your anger carry you?” he asked. Agustin went still and carefully pulled away, so Gabriel sat up. “Get some sleep. I need some air,” Agustin said seriously as he put on his jacket, but Gabriel stopped him. “Agustin, when will we have a peaceful life? Just you and
The news reported the death of the President of Robles Construction after his secretary found the body and immediately called the police. The news of Robles’ death reached the members of the black market. Fear and anxiety ran through them now. The news of Governor Castro’s passing also spread. “President Robles left a message. In his message, he said he had many illegal businesses. That he was part of a group. And it was also stated in his message that he was the one who bombed the Knights’ mansion, which almost killed one of the fifth-generation Knights. And at the end of his message, he said he was involved in the encounter that happened to businessman Mr. Dominic Austin Stone,” “Sad, partner, right? I can’t say he deserved to die, but what he did to the Knights? That still doesn’t seem like enough,” “Well, partner, that’s the consequence of what he did.” Scarlett stood up, trembling in anger when she
“I am resigning from my position as Governor because I have committed many offenses. Drugs, prostitution, illegal gambling, and illegal smuggling. We stole a lot of goods from Perkins Inc. We also stole funds from taxes and funds from the Knights Foundation. Many politicians like me are members of the Black Market where illegal activities are rampant. That is why I am stepping down from my term to pay for all my offenses.” Governor Castro stared at the camera, hands clasped together. “The municipal hall is open to arrest me,” were his last words before the live broadcast ended. He swallowed hard after his short live broadcast, fidgeting with his hands. “I-I’ve done what you asked. Now it’s your turn to keep our agreement,” Governor Castro said, but he squeezed his eyes shut when the muzzle of a gun was pressed against his head. “Very good, Governor! Looks like you know how to keep your word,” Agustin said with a smirk. He lowered his gun, and Governor Castro finally breathed
They began planting explosives in different spots of the black market, including the club where Robles was. Agustin attached the bomb to the waiter’s body. The waiter’s eyes bulged, struggling, but too much blood had been lost and his body was weakening. “This is your payment for almost killing my cousin. That young man is a Knight. He’s my most trusted man,” Agustin whispered, clenching his fist, then punched the waiter’s gut hard, making him vomit blood. He pulled out a handkerchief and stuffed it into the waiter’s mouth. Then, after that, he set the timer for 5 minutes, took the man’s phone, and dialed the number in the call history. A moment later, the owner of the number answered. (“Marquez! Where are you? I have an order for you to find the sniper!”) Agustin grinned when he heard Gino Robles’ voice and turned to the weakening waiter. “It’s finally time to hear you, President Gino Robles.” He smirked, sat dow
When Agustin and Philip arrived at the club, they saw Emmett drinking alone. “Let’s go,” Agustin said expressionlessly. Emmett nodded, still silent, which made Agustin stop, clench his fist, and punch Emmett’s stomach. Emmett groaned, clutching his abdomen. “Adrian is already awake before I even left the hospital. We have something to do, so get yourself together because I won’t bring you to work looking like that. I’ll keep Adrian away from you if we mess this up tonight.” Agustin said firmly. Emmett’s eyes widened, groaning again as the alcohol hit him hard. “Adrian’s awake? Fuck!” he muttered, then followed Agustin and Philip. When they reached the transaction site, they frowned. “Where are we?” Philip asked. Agustin grinned, removed his helmet. “Welcome to the black market,” he said with a smile, lighting a cigarette. Philip and Emmett’s eyes widened; th
When Jacques and Philip entered the gate, Jacques was immediately blocked by their senior in college who also knew the family in the business world. “Jacques!” he greeted with a grin. Jacques raised an eyebrow, then frowned. “What are you doing here?” Jacques asked. The guy chuckled smugly. “I
“HEY, MOM, it’s time for your medicine,” Carrie said, placing the tray on the side table. Scarlett took her medication and watched her youngest daughter. “You don’t have to do this, Carrie. I have nurses to do their job,” Scarlett said. Carrie just smiled and adjusted Scarlett’s blanket.“Has your
