ZICO and Grey sat facing themselves with their legs crossed and half-filled wine glasses. ZICO has been scrutinizing him ever since he arrived. It was ZICO's idea to meet with Grey and Grey had come running when he got the information. "There is a box I want you to retrieve from Miami. I learned it's in Miami and you are the only one in the right position to get the job done. Can I count on you?" ZICO said and handed a picture to Grey, who took it and examined it. It was a picture of the silver box and it's dawn on Grey that it was the same box the ZICO men had gone after but failed to get it. How did it get to Miami so fast and who is this contender that ZICO has? "Sure you can count on me, consider the job done," Grey assured him and he nodded his head. Grey stood up and left the building. He got into his car and drove off. A moment later, he tapped on his phone and the information needed appeared on his phone while he drove with one hand. The location of the box was the s
"Wait, I will call you Josh," she said, rolling her eyes and Josh stopped on his track. He mentally cleaned his ears. He turned and saw her staring at him."What? I said I will call you Josh, " she repeated what she said and shook her head. "But you have to call me Alex as well," she demanded. "But I love to attach my name to yours""Same way I love to attach Mr. to your name so since you want me to call you Josh, you can as well do me a favor and call me Alex." Josh regretted why he had made the demand. He loved the Josh attached to her but now he had made a demand for a change. The change was extended to both of them. "Alright, I will call you Alex.""Great then. You were saying?" She said walking close to him "What is the other stuff you talked about earlier?"He smirked, "you really want to know?" He asked. "Yes, I am a curious person," Alex replied."Come here," he ordered. The tigress Alex turned a lamb immediately. There was something about Josh each time he
Henry led Alex into the horse stall to choose a horse for their horse riding. He had proposed horse riding on the way and Alex had agreed without much thought. The horse keeper took them round the horse stall to make a choice. Having gone round for the second time with Henry making a choice, they came to stop in front of a gray horse that wiggled its tail when it sighted Alex. "The horse seems to like you so we are going for it," Henry said and the Horse keeper agreed with Henry. "Nice choice. I am surprised that the horse likes you. His name is Matt."The keeper said and handed them the horse stripe. Alex kept looking at the horse. She has this feeling of deja vu and she couldn't tell why. It's not like she has met the horse. "Hi Matt, thanks for liking me. Nice to meet you," she patted his back and he wiggled his tail happily. With the help of Henry, Alex led the horse outside the stall. They got outside and Henry helped her to mount on the horse and he climbed behin
THE BOSS, the mask guy's boss, sat behind the system and smiled. "ZICO, you think you are smart and I have proven to you once again that you are the world's no 1 foolish person. You will try but in the end, the secret which has been buried for so long will be let out in the open," he smirked and turned his back on the screen. Grey was seen on the screen leaving ZICO's hideout. *********** Stacy and her dad have been making up for the time lost. For the past hour, they have used it to talk and make up. Her dad had apologized for his actions and Stacy had done the same. They made a promise to be the best for each other. Mr. Jackson at the same time had gifted her another car as a made-up gift that would land in a few days. Stacy could not be happier than this but that's just a facade. No matter what her dad does, she would still go ahead and do what she had planned to do. Her dad could give heaven and Earth but Stacy would choose hell for her to get her revenge served. Her Christmas
Henry was one of Max's loyal men until he got angry that the boss used to give all credit to Max and had broken out of Max's list. The boss had put Henry as a backup to Max which Max was aware of. This morning he had gotten a message from Henry that he just had to watch his back because he was going to prove to him that one can never be too careful and Henry had proven his point. Max's phone rang and it was the asshole calling him. "I told you, man, you can never be too careful. I hope you like my surprise?" Henry smirked at his own end and Max clenched his fist. "And how is your face bearing the act of your foolishness? Do you realize that you could have killed Alex?""That's your problem, not mine. I tended to kill two of them though. Who do you think staged the accident? You are just too smart for my liking," Henry spat out angrily."So it was you, huh? You have lost your conscience. How can you want to prove a point at the expense of two lives, Henry Hat?" Max could
Max watched her every moment,"The ambulance bringing you to the hospital after your fall failed brake and Josh had to protect you with his body for you not to sustain more injury. The ambulance caught fire and that's where the burns came from. Mr. Josh loves you a lot, I have seen it with the little time I had interacted with him. He might be an asshole but you mean the world to him," Max summarized the event of the little time she passed away. Alex did not realize she was crying until a tear dropped from her eyes. Josh could give his life in exchange for hers. She knows Josh loves her a lot but every second he proves to her that his love for her was not just a mere love but deep love. Josh shows his love, he doesn't tell. "I am sorry my darling, you have to be in pain because of me," she muttered and went down on her knees, weeping. The weight of what might have happened to her if Josh had not protected her with his body hit her hard. She would have burnt severally and might
In less than two hours, Alex and Josh were back at the mansion at GreyWave. It was not like Josh walked on his own. Throughout the ride home, he was not aware and as he lay in his room, he had no clue that he was back at GreyWave. Grandfather had sent the jet and it picked them up after their pieces of luggage were wheeled down to the hospital from their hotel. Max had wished Alex well and he took his own trip back to GreyWave after the jet conveying Alex and Josh took off. His boss had picked him up by himself and his men had gone on a separate jet too. They were all back home and this was the time when the real game began. Alex was safer at Miami but now that she was back home and all eyes were on her, THE BOSS was sure to buckle up his shoes not that he was not doing so for as long as he could remember. Alex meant the world to him and he will protect her at all costs. ZICO had not really recovered from the fact that an empty box was delivered to him and when the news
Ander walked in and Alex turned towards the door. He wanted to knock but he did want to disturb them if they were asleep so he walked with the thought that if they were asleep, he would come back later. Alex rose from the bed and tapped the space by her side and asked him to sit. "Ander, come sit down."Ander smiled and sat with her."How are you, big sis?""I am fine, darling. Happy to see you. Did you miss me?" She asked and Ander gave her his 32."Of Course, I missed you, although you were gone for just two days." "I know, right?"She sighed."Sis!" Ander called her after a moment of silence and she hummed in reply. "Dad left a note""He did?""Yeah, I found it inside my guitar and he made mention of a box and said that all we need to know about him and mom and their killer are inside the box. He said you should open the box he gave you sometime before they passed out. The box he mentioned, I can't find out. It's like it has been taken away and I ….." While Ander talke
