CRISTO“Drive Faster Vance, we need to get there on time” I said, worried that we might be late to meet Antonio at his Mansion.“Take a chill pill, Cristo, I'm on high speed already, Do you want us to crash?" Vance asked.Vance was right, if he sped any further, we would crash. Besides, it was my fault we were late.I fell sick, vomiting due to what I ate, which didn't agree with my stomach. Vance had to stop several times so I could puke and catch my breath.“It's ten minutes to twelve," I gasped.“We are almost there," Vance said as he swerved the Lambo to the right, taking a shortcut.In less than seven minutes, we were at Antonio's Mansion.“You're one hell of a driver" I praised Vance, my voice tinged with relief and admiration.“You can say that again, Man," Vance replied, with a big smile on his face.Antonio's bodyguards walked towards us and carried out their routine search, before asking us to follow them to the living room.We sat down and were offered drinks. Vance took a

MIRANDAI was beginning to miss him so much.His touch, his smile, his voice, the picture of Antonio and I, and the time we spent together, lingered on my mind.He was becoming an integral part of me, and I loved it. The bond we shared was special.I checked my phone and saw the missed calls from Antonio, he must have called, while I was talking to Zacko, making sure Joycelyn got here safely.I called him back, but there was no response. So I figured, that he might be busy, then I dropped a caring text for him.Antonio's voice was all I wanted to hear now. There was a subtle knock at the door.“Come in" I gestured.Mirabel, my cook came in, to know what I would like to have for dinner.I requested a fruit salad, spaghetti, and fish, and told her to make it for three persons, Xander and Joycelyn inclusive.“Excuse me, ma’am, I don't mean to be rude, but Mr. Dante instructed that I cook for you, personally", Mirabel stated respectfully.“Yes, that's the more reason, you would do as I as

ANTONIOMy gut feeling was right. My team and I watched as the black Dodge drove by speedily, obviously in search of us, but the disappointment was in store for whoever they were.I waited for a minute, then turned on the ignition and slowly reversed the van before swerving the wheel and accelerating at full speed out of the dark alley into the bustling city.Driving into a public parking lot, I stopped a distance away from where the other vehicles were parked. Cristo and I switched to another car, while the twins drove off ahead of us in a coupe.As I drove out of the parking lot and into the street, I observed, from my rear mirror, that there was no car in sight before hitting the button of the detonator.“Bang!!" We could hear the blast of the Van from a block away, Cristo and I burst into laughter, the twins must have loved the sound of that.“Now that's how a pro does it!" I muttered under my breath.Cristo was looking at me in amazement. “Wow, Antonio, you are always a step ahea

ANTONIO“What?” I was stunned.I couldn't believe my eyes as I read the text on the screen of my phone. The roaches were no other than the Dalmorra gang, a trusted ally of ours.They were known for their brutality and discrete methods of operation, but Dr. White was no novice in this spy game.To prove his information, he sent a picture along with the text, which I confirmed was authentic.I saw the black dodge that trailed us tonight parked a block away from Madoff's Casino, which meant they observed our operation tonight at the Casino. I racked my brain, wondering if they were not on to us inside the Casino.If that were to be so, we have strong competition in securing the hundred million dollars, which I suspected the Dalmorra gang to be interested in.But if they were observing us from outside the Casino, it's possible they don't know the specifics of our plan yet. Either way, we need to be careful and reconsider our strategy.Could it also have been the Dalmorra gang that sent me

CARLOMy twin and I, disguised in human masks with different identities, entered Madoff’s Mansion precisely ten minutes after the power was cut off.Boss Antonio’s connections within the power supply company gave him leverage over a loyal follower, who promptly cut off the power to the mansion at his order.We approached the bodyguards at the gate, showing them fake IDs.The guards scrutinized us for a few seconds before calling to confirm the power failure.Satisfied with the explanation, they allowed us through. We marched towards the main entrance where we were searched thoroughly by another set of bodyguards.The guard who seemed to be in charge questioned Carlone and me, inquiring suspiciously,“This is unusual, we’ve never experienced a power failure before, and you guys arrived so fast. How come?”Carlone remained unfazed, replying calmly, “You are a VIP, sir, and we are efficient in every sense of our job.”The guard nodded, but I could sense the scrutiny that lingered in his
