David looked at his son, who didn't seem to have any appetite. Even the spoon in his hand didn't move at all. A sense of concern and sadness radiated from David's eyes toward his only son."Since Bianca died, he has changed a lot. His body became thinner, and the happy smile was never seen on his face again." David thought."What should I do to make him back to normal? What can I do to bring a smile back radiated in the face? My heart hurts so much to see him like a living corpse. I feel like I've lost my only son. I lost the spark in my life exactly in the second of my own eyes." David was still looking toward his only son, who sat stunned, and his gaze was empty."Sean?" David called his son, but Sean's ears didn't seem to hear what his father said. His eyes looked straight at the plate in front of him At the moment.David then took Sean's hand and patted it gently."Hey." David said in a soft tone to his son.David's eyes heated up. He felt like he couldn't help but cry seeing his
David looked flatly at his two subordinates, Don and Jackson, standing before him. The two men were tense when David summoned them suddenly to their main office. They glanced at each other while David just sat quietly in his chair. Heavy breathing could be heard from him. David slowly stood up from his chair and walked forward to Don and Jackson."You guys are probably trying to cover up what you did years ago, and you think that I wouldn't know about it.""I already know that Adele is dead, and her skull was found in the lake."Don and Jackson could only lower their heads, respectively. Cold sweat dripped from their foreheads. Their hearts were beating fast, and nervousness coursed through their bodies. There was only one thought, 'How could David know this? Meanwhile, when Adele was gone, he seemed indifferent and didn't want to look for her whereabouts.""What made you do that?" David touched his face closer to Don and Jackson, who bowed. They both could feel David's breath on thei
"Let me go, let me go.'' Anna kicked as hard as she could toward Richard's two subordinates who tried to force her into the car.But her efforts were in vain. Her small body certainly couldn't match the strength possessed by Richard's two subordinates."Shit." But Anna's kick hit one of them in the face and made the big man emit an aura of wanting to kill Anna."You little bitch." That man tried to pull Anna, who was already in the car and wanted to hit her, but his hand movement stopped when he heard Richard's voice behind him."Stop it." Said Richard in a cold tone. His two subordinates, who heard their Boss's voice behind their bodies, immediately walked away from Richard's car and bowed to Richard to pay respects to their Boss.Richard then got into his car, with Anna sitting next to him. His green eyes looked at Anna, who was scared. Richard could see that Anna's body was shaking, and her eyes were wet from crying. Richard then turned his gaze to Anna's bare feet, and he chuckled
After what David did to him, Jackson could barely feel his face. His whole face swelled up, and he felt a stinging pain all the time, which made Don take Jackson to the hospital, and he had to be treated there. David didn't respond when Don told him about Jackson's condition, which turned out to be worrying from what they imagined."Boss, I'm currently in the hospital with Jackson; he keeps complaining that his face hurts. I will accompany him for 2 or 3 days, Boss."''He's not dead, is he?''''No, Boss. He's-''''Good.''"Click."Don stared at the black screen of his cellphone, a sign David already disconnected his phone first, without saying anything. Don sighed and rubbed his head, which felt itchy like being surrounded by ants."Shit.""I didn't think he would react like this when he knew about Adele's death. Why was he angry at us for getting rid of that woman? I don't understand the way of his thinking." Don looked at the people passing by in the hallway hospital where he was. So
Anna povAppearance tonight, as usual, was filled with masher men who looked at me with hungry eyes. I'm just singing in this club, not selling myself. The dress I was wearing needed to be more open. But I enjoyed singing in the Holo club. Singing and making people feel good with my singing makes me feel important.As always, chairs in line at the front of the club are always full. Those masher guys looked at me with a naughty look. I glanced in the direction of the edge of the stage and saw one of Richard's subordinates showing a piece of paper that said"Boss says your lipstick is too red."I almost forgot the lyrics of the song I was singing as soon as I saw the writing on the paper."Damn. Apparently he asked his subordinates to supervise me in such a way."I'm trying not to look annoyed because I have read the writing, which was a message from Richard."I did not apply this lipstick too thick, did I?""But, does my lipstick really look too thick?""Damn it, I have to see in the d
Several days had passed since Sean last visited Holo, and it was also the last time he heard Anna sing at that club. When Sean arrives at his house from the Holo club, he realizes that he is enjoying the atmosphere of the Holo club and Anna's singing voice and that he hasn't had a drink that suits his taste in a long time. He has attended many clubs with his late wife, but none of the clubs has glasses that suit his tastes.Sean was enjoying his dinner with his father, David. The two ate dinner in silence, both preoccupied with their own thoughts. David is busy thinking about running his business in the dark world, and Sean is busy thinking about running the company he is holding now. And the raging boredom in Sean's mind made him want to refresh his mind by going out and having a drink. And the only place that came to his mind right now was the Holo."Are you done with your dinner?" David saw in the direction of Sean, who had stood up from his seat and was preparing to leave the dini
Jackson stretched out both of his arms and breathed the clean air of the Garden behind the hospital area. Beside him, there was Don, who was sitting relaxed."Today is my last day being treated at this hospital." Jackson took a seat next to Don. Don glanced at him. "So?""You idiot." Jackson chuckled as he patted the back of Don's head."Hey." Don held the back of his head, which Jackson patted."You are much smarter than me; how come you can't read the direction of my current conversation?"Don frowned."I mean, you should have gone to work by now and escort our Boss."Don avoided Jackson's gaze, who looked at him with a smile."If I go back right now to our Boss, do you think he will welcome me and treat me like nothing happened?" Don smiled.''Ah, you're right. I should have thought about that.""If I were there right now, maybe tomorrow, I'm the one you must treat at this hospital.''"If I go back to work with you, it will be much safer than me having to work there alone.""Why?
After Richard asked him to work with Anna to catch one of their customers who had run away, Chansu was more silent. Usually, Anna is assigned to ensnare customers who want to avoid payment to Richard however has been away from the task for quite some time and is only focusing on being a singer at the Holo. And this is her first debut after not doing this kind of task for a long time.Anna glanced at Chansu, who sat silently next to her."Hey, what's wrong?" Anna held Chansu's hand, which was above his thigh. Anna looked worried about Chansu's condition; the first time Anna stepped into Richard's residence, Chansu was a person who always acted normal to her. And seeing Chansu's sad state like this made Anna feel worried for him."Nothing." Chansu released Anna's grip on her hands."Are you sure?" Anna asks once again to Chansu. Because clearance if his face does not show that he is fine now."Hmm," Chansu just nodded his head."Is this because Richard scolded you?" Chansu didn't mind w
"Good afternoon, sir."Mark was immediately greeted by the cell phone shopkeepers he visited today. He went straight to the shop window, which contained various kinds of cell phones that were deliberately displayed to attract the attention of the cell phone shop's visitors.Mark's handsome face caught the attention of the shopkeepers; his brown hair made his pale white skin appear more precise. Mark had to buy a new cell phone for his new cell phone number because the cell phone Chansu had thrown him away."I don't think it's enough to throw away your Sim card, but we must replace your cell phone with a new one."Mark sighed as soon as he remembered Chansu's words when they met a few days ago. And since that incident, Chansu has not contacted Mark at all."Have you made up your mind, sir?" Mark looked up and saw the direction of the standing shopkeeper in front of the display window."I'm a little confused, because all the new phones nowadays look really good." Mark smiled faintly at
SB carried out the task given by Richard to him carefully. SB, who knows a lot of people in the black market, can easily find people willing to help him find the actual owner of the bullets Richard entrusted to him.SB and some of his subordinates manage to find the manufacturer of bullets where the Mafia usually orders bullets with their initials. The Mafia Bosses do that to give a vital sign of power to the victims who have died from the bullets they fired. With more and more bullets lodged in the bodies of their victims, the Mafia felt more potent because they succeeded in killing the lives of Mafia Bosses or their subordinates and others with their own hands."So this is the place." SB was standing in a shoe shop that looked deserted."Ring."The doorbell rang when SB pushed the door of the shop, and when he and a few of his subordinates entered the shoe shop that looked old, there was no activity there. No one was seen guarding the shop."Let me see." SB walked to the counter and
As usual, Sean entered the Holo club and immediately set his sights on the stage where Anna usually sang. But this time, he didn't see Anna there. His forehead furrowed as he looked around the club area, but still didn't see Anna's whereabouts."' Is there anyone you will meet, sir?" Sean was surprised when the Bartender asked him about the problem.''Uh no…'' Sean shook his head and ordered his favorite drink as usual.The Bartender looked at Sean probingly. His eyes saw Sean's movements, who had been paying attention to the empty stage area with no entertainers."If you are looking for our singer, she is not working today.""Excuse me?"The Bartender took a deep breath and approached Sean."Our singer, will not appear today. Because for now, her job is not only to sing in this club, but she also has to do other things ordered by our Boss.""What makes you think that I'm looking for that woman?"''So I'm wrong, huh?''The Bartender chuckled and looked at Sean, who seemed oblivious to
"Your Boss is here." Chansu's cell phone was on the bar table when he visited SB's casino. He was too busy talking to several people who were also clients of Richard who were spending their time at the casino held by SB.SB chuckled when he deliberately took Chansu's cell phone and read the message from Mark that appeared on Chansu's screen cell phone. SB does not know whose number came into Chansu's cell phone and gives him information about Richard because it's impossible for Chansu to have a boss other than Richard."Well, who do you think you're texting right now?" SB glanced at Chansu, who was still busy talking to Richard's clients; SB then took his cell phone and took a photo of the unknown number that appeared on Chansu's screen phone."I'm not dumb.""If you don't want to tell me who owns this number, then I'll look for it by myself." SB glanced back in the direction of Chansu, who was done with his business and started walking towards the bar counter, where SB was sitting an
Chansu looked at the pile of suitcases in front of him at this time; he then turned his gaze to Richard, who was enjoying his breakfast."Boss, where are you going?"A thin smile appeared on Richard's face, and his eyes looked towards Chansu."I work too much, and I hardly ever rest.""And now it's time for me to enjoy some time to myself.""Excuse me?"Chansu could not believe what he heard at this time. Richard acted like he worked in an ordinary world and wanted to enjoy his time. Still, Chansu was worried whether his Boss had thought about the consequences if he had just left his position because Richard held a lot of business in the black market and his company in the ordinary world, which is still running today.Richard chuckled when he saw Chansu's facial expression, which seemed surprised by what he said."You don't need to be surprised. Isn't it normal to have time off and enjoy your own time?""I've forgotten when was the last time; I really enjoyed my own time, Chansu. I wa
Sean woke up with a headache that made him close his eyes repeatedly before finally opening them slowly. His eyes looked toward his room, and he lowered his gaze towards his clothes, which was his complete outfit when he went to the Holo Club."How can I go home?" Sean tried to get up from his bed and lower his feet off the bed."I can't go home by driving my own car." Sean seemed to think for a moment.''Drrtt….. Drrt….'' Sean reached into his suit pocket and took out his cell phone, the name of his secretary listed on the cellphone screen."Sir, why didn't you come to the office today?" Sean's secretary sounded panicked. Sean was still trying to process everything that happened to him even though his head was still throbbing and his vision was still blurry."What?" Sean only said one word to answer the call of his secretary, who sounded worried about her Boss, who had not yet come to the office."Sir, have you forgotten about the important meeting you have to attend today? Our clien
Mark checked some of the patient data he handled, and several times, he flipped through the paper containing the critical data. His two eyes focused on reading the developments that his patients had experienced. His hand remembered to write down a few sentences that he added on record to the patient to guide the nurses on duty. While focusing on his task, suddenly, his hand movements stopped, and his eyes seemed to wander off to last night's incident when he and Chansu met and talked to each other."And is this the attitude you've shown as long as we haven't seen each other for years, Chansu?"After Mark's last sentences, Chansu kept silent and did not respond to Mark's penalties. And that was the last conversation the two had at that time because Chansu immediately took his office bag and left the cafe where they met for the first time after years of not seeing each other."am I too harsh on him?" Mark leaned his body on the chair he was sitting on. He then took his cell phone inside
The atmosphere of the cafe looks lively, and some people can be heard laughing with their friends; on the corner, Of the cafe, two men are silent each other. But both of them seemed to greet each other through their respective eyes; the smile never left their faces. A waiter delivered the drink they had been waiting for to them. Neither of them wanted to open the conversation first because the nervousness and awkwardness that both of them were experiencing made their tongues go numb.Fifteen minutes had passed since two cups of coffee were served in front of them, and finally, one of them decided to speak first and broke the silence between the two."How are you, sir?" said the man, who was none other than Mark. He's looking at Chansu directly, who seems to pay attention to the area around the Café, before answering Mark's questions, the young man whose whereabouts he had hidden from Richard for years."I'm good, thanks." Chansu looked at Mark, full of emotion, as if he saw a younger
Richard saw that Chansu and Anna were standing in front of him. His eyebrows furrowed, and one of his fingers covered his nose."What is it, Boss?" Anna asked Richard about the attitude of someone who looks like someone held back smells. A mischievous smile appeared on her face; Anna enjoyed the expression that Richard was currently showing her."Nothing.'' He seemed to take a breath and inhale it again.Anna then walked towards the window near Richard's desk and opened it both. "Isn't it like this, much better, Boss?" Anna glanced at Richard, who seemed surprised by Anna's actions and knew that, at this time, he was holding his breath due to the smell emitting from Anna and Chansu's bodies.''You're right.'' Richard cleared his throat."From the smell you have smelled, we don't need to explain further what happened to your customer who ran away, Boss. " Anna handed over the letter she found from the customer. The letter had been sealed in plastic so that Richard would not need to sm
