Royce's POV It was already eleven in the evening yet, I was not able to sleep. I kept on walking to and fro inside my room, feeling anxious about what would gonna happen tomorrow in the BOD meeting. Uncle Sam had no idea that the person he hired to kill Reid was already in the custody of the Canadian police. He believed that Reid was already dead because I instructed the man to pretend that he was able to carry out the plan.On the other hand, it remained a puzzle to me, how did Uncle Sam find out that Reid was still in the hospital and in the process of recovery? Who told him? I was thinking of it deeply and took a deep sigh. Suddenly, a certain person was popping into my head. Walter? No, no, no!!! I shook my head. It could never be him! I set aside those thoughts because it's totally irrational. Walter is Reid's bestfriend and his most trusted employee in META. I took a deep sigh as I sat down on my bed. Suddenly, my phone rang. I hurriedly picked it up thinking that it was co

Royce's POV It's about time for me to get inside. I flipped the doorknob and all their eyes were set on me as I entered the conference hall, Cameras were flashing and I was bombarded with a lot of questions from media men. "Please hold on everyone. My brother had no idea about this. I just called him and asked him to come here because I knew that this would happen. As what I've said, I haven't called for this meeting. I did not remember I signed a CEO memorandum thus, it simply means someone had faked my signature." I was just listening to Reid, while I was seated at the vacant chair not so far from him. I couldn't help myself but get worried about him because I know he is not yet fully recovered. In no time, my gaze landed on Uncle Sam and Charles's direction and I could see the fear in their eyes. "Now, can I answer what the Chief Operating Officer was saying a while ago?", Reid spoke with a calm voice. "Well, it's obvious that he doubted my identity. He mentioned about the art

Royce's POV My whole body felt paralyzed and I could barely breathe when I heard everything Vera said to me. I saw the anger in her eyes and it was like fire burning through my veins. Vera and her companions already left but I chose to stay inside my car for a while. I don't know how to bear this pain but I couldn't blame her because it was all my fault. Now, I'm paying the prize for hurting her and accusing her of the things she never had done in her life. But I won't give up on her, no matter what! I took my cellphone and dialed Vince's number. "Hey bro, wazz up?", I heard my friend speaking on the other line. "Uhm, Alexa was with Vera a while ago. She accompanied her to an Oby gyne clinic". "Uh--I see. She told me, she need to see Vera because she wanted to ask her, why Vera canceled her flight to Canada." "She would be flying to Canada bro, with whom? with Dave?", I asked continuously and my voice got a little louder. "Hmm. Dave? Who is he, bro?" A long deep sigh esca

Royce's POV Many things were revealed when we talked to Andrea's mother for half an hour. But the most shocking part was that Andrea looked exactly the same as Vera. I couldn't believe it when her mother showed us her picture. And then, she let us read Andrea's letter that was written a day before the murder took place. There she said, Margaret made her a deal to copy her face in exchange for 80, 000 dollars. Due to extreme necessity, because her mother had to go on a heart bypass surgery, she accepted the offer. But she was told to hide somewhere after her mother's operation. She just told her mother that she was hired to work for a certain company in Washington and so, she would be away from home. But as soon as she visited her family, she received death threats but just ignored them, until it happened. And there's only one person I thought responsible for it---Margaret! I took a quick glimpse at Reid who was just silent while his eyes were focusing on the road. I knew he was al

Royce's POVIt was my alarm clock that woke me up from sleep. It was already six in the morning. I remember, Reid asked me to go with him today. Well, I couldn't believe I'm still needed in META now that he's back. Suddenly, what happened last night came back to my mind. Our lives were close to danger, at the hands of those people yet, we were still lucky, we have survived. I know my family and I were no longer safe, so we need to be very careful because we don't know yet, who were our real enemies.On the other hand, tomorrow would be Uncle Sam and Charles' first trial in court. I couldn't wait any longer for them to be convicted so they have to pay for the crimes they have committed. Suddenly my phone rang and it was my best friend Vince. It's been a while, we haven't seen and talked to each other. He was also busy with his parents' business. I'm glad he decided to take life seriously this time rather than going out with friends in bars and nightclubs. "Hello bro! Waz up man?", V
