“Hello, Steve,” Adrian’s voice was deep as it sounded through the phone when his call connected with Steve’s line. Hearing the tone Adrian spoke in, Steve knew something was up. He stood from the dining table and excused himself. “Yes, master, is there a problem?” he asked curiously. Adrian meant it—he would never let anyone who underestimated him survive any longer. And Gabriel had just messed with the wrong person. He stood in Vivienne’s room in the Lancasters’ house, watching her sleep. The room’s aura was peaceful, the smell of Vivienne’s perfume filling the air with a welcoming embrace. The cool air from the air conditioner drifted gently, adding to the calm. The atmosphere was soothing—yet it clashed with the look on Adrian’s face. He was angry, ready to lash out at the whole of EpicTech and show them why it was never a good idea to play humiliating games wi

It’s been an hour and a half since Steve already made the necessary moves he needed to make about EpicTech as Adrian had instructed him.And it’s just now that Gabriel is seeing the live chart of their company. The iPad he held displayed a chart that indicates how the whole business is currently progressing — how it drops or climbs higher.It’s an easier way for them to always track their progression through the chart board. And now he suddenly saw the whole thing crumbling and almost on the last red line after it’s passed multiple red lines that indicate they’re going bankrupt in an instant.Gabriel’s world seems to pause for a moment as he watches in disbelief. He’s been in his private room the whole time and disregarded all calls and messages because his phone was on silent; he didn’t notice it.Not until now, when he finally saw his phone’s face showing a caller identification — a WhatsApp call from the same group chat he and his three other friends who own EpicTech share. Only th

Just then Adrian was surrounded by countless men who had weapons in their hands. Without a word he came down from his car and didn’t even make any move to defend himself as one of them pushed his back to the car. He deliberately allowed himself to be tied by the men. “Hello boss, we have him.” One of them said over the phone as they made a video call with Gabriel. “Show his face. Let me see him.” Gabriel said. He wasn’t going to take any chances and wanted to be sure it was Adrian they really captured. He smirked in a deliberate tone as the camera turned to Adrian’s face. He’d taken Vivienne somewhere that Adrian didn’t quite know — it seemed like an underground building. The place was cast with shadows even though it wasn’t dawn yet; only the faint hotness from some candles around Vivienne showed her face and she was sweating heavily. She kept shaking her head as tears fell from

Steve did feel like the whole thing seemed a bit awkward, that he didn’t even come with a gift along with him. And also, he didn’t want that impression of a businessman’s face that made him seem like someone who’s too busy to even pay attention to family. So he quickly sent out a text to his men, asking them to come with a presentable gift. And just as he said the word, a knock was heard on the door. Smith was quite hesitant about who could be at the door anyways. He didn’t expect anyone to even visit him, as he wasn’t the type who had many friends that could do so. In fact, most of his friends were either doctors who had left him behind because he didn’t follow the trend they followed. They wanted to make more friends who could enlighten them in the trends, and he wouldn’t be much help to them either, so they often cut him off already, and their distance already spoke that they weren’t even close enough to be considered f

Adrian was covered in a dark black bag that blurred his vision throughout the ride as they took him somewhere far. He could tell how far the place was because they’d been on the road for hours. Once they arrived, they brought him to a place where he didn’t recognize anyone or anything around him at all. At first, when they pulled off the veil that covered his vision, his eyes felt like darkness was falling over him. Slowly, he began to open them more clearly to feel the light around him. Finally, when his eyes were open and he could see his surroundings— He was in a place that looked like an underground building. The walls were made of steel, and the dim bulb above the steel ceiling flickered on and off occasionally, indicating that the place had been there for a long time. He looked around, but the only person he could see was the man who had removed his veil, standing tall in
