It's been days since the chaos started to subside. The war between the Rui Lin Mafia and the Vile Mafia has come to an end, and the government is helping those who are in need. Those who lost their home are free to enter the new community that was built by the president near the boundary. Those who had lost their ability to work would be given work that they could do, and their rate would be the same as the normal one. Those children who became orphans were given a free education. Those who had lost their loved ones were given compensation. These are all done by Hideous and the President. Because of this, their name was picked up everywhere. Meanwhile, in the underworld, everyone finally knew why the Information Center disappeared. It was because if they continue to stay active at that time, the Vile Mafia will do something against everyone. Since they are neutral, even if they don't want to, if the Vile Mafia gave them enough money to correspond to the information they needed, they
Hideous paced back and forth in his office, his usually calm demeanor replaced by an air of restlessness and anxiety. Papers lay forgotten on his desk as he anxiously awaited any news about Sherly's condition. His mind raced with worry, his thoughts consumed by fear for his daughter's safety.Just then, his phone rang, and Hideous's heart skipped a beat as he answered it hastily. "Hello?""Uncle, it's George," came the voice on the other end of the line, his tone filled with relief. With George's tone of voice, it would be a good one. "I have good news. Sherly is finally out of danger."A wave of overwhelming relief washed over Hideous, his tense shoulders sagging with the weight of the news. As if all his strength went away from his knee, he sat down on his seat. "Thank goodness," he breathed, his voice trembling with emotion. "Thank you for letting me know, George."As Hideous's anxiety began to go away, he finally allowed himself a moment of respite, sinking into his chair with a h
In the dimly lit interrogation room of the police station, Hideous confronted Lilia, his heart heavy with a mix of anger and confusion. This woman tried to kill his one and only daughter. If his daughters aren't strong, doesn't that mean he'll lose one of his children? This woman tried to kill his daughter. Hideous stared at Lilia. He needed answers and closure for the unthinkable act she had committed against their own flesh and blood."Lilia, why?" Hideous's voice cut through the silence, his tone firm and resolute.If it weren't for the glass in between them, Hideous might have used his torturing method on this woman. However, because of this glass, he couldn't even put his hands on her neck to straggle her.Lilia sat before him, her gaze vacant, as if lost in the depths of her own despair. She murmured softly, almost to herself, "Sherly, she's the root of all the evil."Hideous frowned in confusion as he clenched his fists in frustration, struggling to understand the depth of Lili
It's just been an hour, and Sherly couldn't feel at ease. It was like she felt restless lying here, doing nothing. She wanted to do something, but she couldn't as George was watching her. His eyes feel like hawks. As Sherly stirred in her hospital bed, George's eyes widened in panic. He could see the determination in her gaze, but he also saw the strain it put on her healing wounds. With a sense of urgency, he reached out to gently restrain her, his voice tinged with concern.When Sherly turned her head, she didn't know whether she would cry or laugh. George's face is really something.On the other hand, George's eyes looked like he wanted to cry. "Sherly, please don't move," George urged, his tone urgent. Worries are visible in his voice and eyes. Well, it is normal since she is his lover. "Your stitches are still fresh. You just got out of the operation; please do be careful. You need to rest and let your body heal."Sherly paused and did not respond. However, she's startled by the
As Sherly drifted off into a peaceful slumber, George sat quietly by her side, his mind buzzing with a mixture of emotions. He could just kill his time watching her, but he knows that she won't be able to sleep peacefully if he does that. Thus, with nothing but the soft glow of the TV illuminating the room, he turned on the news, seeking a distraction from the weight of the day's events.He already has an idea of what's happening inside the government right now since the person they planted there reported to them already, but who knows what kind of things these little reporters are going to tell the public? With the public's anger poured into Joseph because he is the mastermind of the war between the two mafias that caused a lot of people to lose their homes and family members, this kind of news was anticipated.As the news anchor reported on Joseph's interrogation, George's attention was immediately captured. All the news was now about Joseph and his wrongdoing. With this, the things
As Lary delivered the distressing news, Sherly's heart sank, and her worst fears were realized in an instant. How could she let her guard down? This man may be less ruthless and cunning than the people inside the underworld, but he is still cunning. Now that this has happened, all she can do is let that man be punished. Whether it is severe or not, it doesn't matter. She won't let this matter go."Oh no, Keisley," she whispered, her voice trembling with shock and fear.Sherly could tell a lot of changes in her. When she only has her best friend and her family in her life, she's not this emotional. However, right now, it is different. She had her own family to be called hers. Thus, her emotions are a little bit on edge.George's jaw clenched with anger as he processed the extent of the attack. He immediately noticed Sherly's reaction and calmed himself down. He doesn't want to let Sherly be like this. "How could this happen?" he demanded, his voice laced with frustration. He thought t
Sherly could hear the papers flipping in the background and the scratching sound of the pen and paper, and she knew that her father was still in his office. She took a deep breath and calmed herself. "Dad, are you busy?"The scratching sound of pen and paper stopped, and she heard her father answer, "I am busy, but if you ask for time, I have a lot to spare. So, what is it? Do you have a problem?"Sherly bit her lower lip first. "Dad, you need to come to the hospital right now. Someone attacked Keisley," she said, her voice thick with emotion."Wait, what? Keisley is in the hospital, and someone attacked him?" Sherly nodded her head even though her father couldn't see her. "Yes, Dad. I am not in front of the operating room. Keisley was stabbed in the hotel after his meeting with his client." "What the fuck!" Sherly shivered as she heard her father curse. This is the first time she has heard him say those words. It was as if it came out of his lips without noticing it. "I'll be there
When Sherly finished the call, six people approached her, their heads bowed in a sign of respect as they acknowledged her presence. She recognized them immediately as George's people, their loyalty evident in their unwavering support.How did she know? Of course, it's not because she investigated the people around George but because of their respect. They respect their boss; thus, they must respect his lover as well.Before they could approach her, the red light above the operating room door turned green, signaling that the operation had just finished. With a sense of urgency, she made her way to meet the doctor who operated on her brother, her heart racing with anticipation and fear for her brother's well-being.Inside the room, the doctor greeted Sherly with a nod of acknowledgment. "Where's the family of the patient?" he inquired, his tone professional yet compassionate.Sherly stepped forward, her voice steady despite the mess in the side of her head because of the emotions swirli
"Is everything okay?" Sherly asked her friend George when she was given the folder containing the things they would need for their wedding.They invited an organizer, but it was not enough for them. For this young couple, marriage is one of the strongest things that can bind them to each other, which is why they want everything to be perfect. Therefore, everything the organizer needs to do must be known by both of them.George nodded slowly. "Everything has been arranged. I have given the names of our guests to the organizer and planner after I have confirmed with them the design of our invitations and stationery."Satisfied, Sherly smiled and nodded. "That's good. The sooner the invitations are given to us, the better." He held George's hand and then said, "So, are you ready? There is no going back. If you go back, you will have a cut on your neck."George laughed softly. "You're really going to tell me that, Sherly?" He raised his eyebrows. "Shouldn't you be the one to be afraid?" h
As Sherly stepped out from behind the curtain, she couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement mixed with nerves. This wasn't the first dress she tried to put on her body, but it still gave her the same feeling of excitement and happiness. No matter which dress she picks up, it is still the same. The soft white fabric of the wedding dress cascaded around her, the intricate lace details adding a touch of elegance to the ensemble.This dress is much more satisfying.Solace's eyes widened in awe as she took in her friend's appearance. She had been in her place before, but she couldn't help but gasp and feel amazed when she saw her best friend wearing a wedding dress. Clapping her hands with excitement, "Oh, Sherly, you look absolutely stunning," she exclaimed, her voice filled with genuine admiration.Even those ladies who had been assisting them for an hour nodded their heads with satisfaction in their eyes. After all, they seldom see women who could fit their wedding dresses perfectl
Meanwhile, Keisley splashed in the water with Gio, their laughter mingling with the gentle lapping of the river. With the child by their side, they couldn't help but feel it was more lively than they imagined. If Gio weren't with them, they would surely be sitting and talking only. They won't even bother to go to the water and swim. The cool water provided a refreshing escape from the summer heat, and Keisley reveled in the joy of the moment, his carefree spirit infectious. Keisley is the most outgoing person in the family, and with Gio's personality, they got along well. Since Keisley has the same wavelength as Gio, the adults let them play. After all, they don't want Gio to get bored since this is their first time camping.However, the mood shifted when Sherly noticed the distress etched on Solace's face when she sat down beside her. This isn't the first time she saw pain in her best friend's face, but this is clearly not normal. With keen intuition, Sherly approached her friend ev
As they planned at night, their activities will start in the morning. Thus, as the morning sun rose gently over the cabin, the air was filled with the crisp scent of pine and the sounds of nature awakening. It is rare for them to have this kind of peaceful atmosphere since they are all living in a bustling city and working in a chaotic world, and it is kind of refreshing for them. After a hearty breakfast shared by both families with teasing and talking about various matters, Solace's brother, Harvey, suggested a fishing trip to the nearby river. Keisley and Kyle eagerly agreed, albeit with different approaches in mind. This is new for them, and they wanted to discover if they had a talent for it or none at all. Also, they wanted to feel the good air in the morning, which surrounds nature.An hour later, as they returned from the riverbank, Kyle and Keisley carried a small bucket containing only three fish, their expressions reflecting their contrasting personalities. Well, they do
It's been a long time for Sherly and Solace to have time together without their beloved by their sides. Usually, before they found their man, they had always been together, and they had never been away from each other for a long time. Even though Sherly was studying before, she always had time to be with her best friend. However, the moment they finally found their loved ones, they finally had no time together.It's been a week since they finally had time together, and they decided to go to a cafe near Sherly's best friend's house. Since Sherly's best friend is pregnant, she doesn't want her to travel too far. The ambiance of the café that they chose was really good and relaxing. The smell of the coffee inside makes them feel even more relaxed. Since then, both of them have been fans of coffee, and whenever they had time and money, they would buy a cup of coffee for each other. The cafe's relaxing ambiance immediately embraced Sherly and Solace as they finally found a moment to catch
As soon as George received the urgent call from Marie, his heart sank with worry. He knew that when Sherly was in a bad mood, it could spell trouble, especially in matters concerning the security of their information center. She sent him a text message, and even though he tried to soothe her through messages, it seems that it wasn't enough for Marie to call him. Without wasting a moment, he rushed to the headquarters, his mind racing with concern for his beloved. He doesn't want his lover to feel frustrated after all.Upon arriving, everyone in the information center did not care. After all, they knew why George had come here. They may not know why he and their boss were close, but they know that George's girlfriend is close to their boss. Thus, when George visited, they didn't care at all. When he arrived at Sherly's office, George found Sherly pacing back and forth in her office, her brow furrowed with frustration as she spoke rapidly with Marie and the others. Sensing her agitatio
In Sherly's office, the room was filled with a soft glow from the computer screens in front of them. Scorpio and her aids were all sitting at a conference room's table, and they were all poring over the latest data and intelligence reports that came into their systems. Normally, when the agents finally had important information, they all went directly back to the headquarters and made up a report. However, right now, with advanced technology, they could give a report even if they're in the most isolated part of the earth.While they are busy reading and investigating the facts of the information, suddenly, a flashing alert caught not only Sherly's attention but everyone in the room, indicating a breach in the system. With a furrowed brow, she quickly traced the intrusion back to the source, and her expression hardened as she realized what had happened.When her teacher was alive, he tried his best to make her knowledgeable about hacking. Now, this kind of breach isn't that hard for he
As Sherly's aids, Marie, Alex, and Kim, gathered around the table in their private meeting room, the tension in the air was palpable. It was because of the recent news that they had just received. They were poring over the latest report that had come in regarding a rival mafia boss in country M who was attempting to establish his own information center, with intentions rumored to be aimed at undermining theirs.They dont know if the mafia boss is still sane and on his right mind since his decision was futile or just trying to make them feel threatened. As if they are. They are just kind of feeling weird since they are making a lot of noise in the underworld internationally.Some of the mafia members all around the world are trying to seek information from them about this kind of thing, and they could easily get information from this so-called new information center in country M.This makes Sherly want to laugh her ass out. After all, once you're running an information center, you must
As Sherly stepped out of the elevator onto George's floor, she couldn't help but overhear the hushed whispers of the newcomers behind her. This isn't that rare for her since her people inside the information center are always chatting about different information as well. They spoke of a woman in the mafia who had attempted to seduce George but had only ended up humiliating herself."Did you see that woman? Oh my god, how could she do that kind of thing? Isn't she new as well?""Right? She's new but tried to climb to the boss's bed. Isn't she shameless?""Uh-huh, she really is. I heard that a lot of people prior to us had been warning her not to do something stupid, but she still did."She snorted. "She's someone who couldn't afford to be in a lower class first. In the end, she humiliated herself.""Well, it was boss Goerge we're talking about. He had a girlfriend, and as to what I've heard, he loves her so much. However, that woman did not listen. If boss George wanted to kill that tim
