Together with Gina, who unfortunately was wearing the ugliest disguise he had ever seen in his life (sunglasses and a short scarf covering the head like women living in and around Russia), Alan walked towards the entrance of the club. “Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen…?” A bouncer who looked like he was new to his job, stopped Alan and Gina, who were about to enter the club. Gina nudged him, giving him an expression like she was telling him, 'What did I say?' on her face while stomping her feet in disgust. "Yes?" Alan casually faced the bouncer without losing his composure in the slightest. Everyone else in line outside the club questioned his and Gina's attitude, and some of them did not even bother showing the annoyance on their faces. "Do you have a level 5 membership card for this club?" the bouncer asked politely, but there was an emphasis in his tone and gestures against the entrance as if trying to warn Alan to step back and move away from that place. "Because if you do not h
Together with Gina walking behind him, Alan followed the female employee who guided them down the third floor corridor as soon as the elevator doors opened. The corridors looked deserted–according to the principle of privacy offered by this club–so that the three of their footsteps automatically echoed throughout the room. Every room here was soundproofed, but he could hear the faint sounds of crowds from within several of the rooms. When he glanced at the source of the sound, he noticed that the doors of the room where the sound was coming from were not tightly closed, explaining the reason behind the loud laughter or commotion of the high-class customers. “How lowly! How could Freddy visit a place like this without my knowledge!” Gina muttered in annoyance, stamping her feet while holding back the urge to scream out her anger as a result of the 'no making noise' ban when they set foot on the third floor. “I don't understand, why would he want to visit a place like this in the first
Keith was reading the reports Katherine had just given him as soon as he arrived at his office this morning with full concentration. In fact, he didn't even have time to take off his coat, only briefly greeting people who were already at Aldebrando's headquarters before entering his office.After yesterday's incident, Marie actually kept asking him to stay at home until he heard further news from Ellen. But, of course, he could not do that now. For now, taking a break from work was a luxury he could hardly afford.Maybe his wife could wait for Larch's condition to improve, but not with his work and the plans he had made long ago. His wife's extended family will obviously not remain silent because of her target, which is most likely him; he was very sure of this one conjecture considering the aspect of the target shot by the sniper hired by Silvano—who did not die according to the plan of the two old men.His brow furrowed as he read the report Aura had made and Katherine had just given
Keith's lips pulled up slightly, smiling a sly smile after hearing Katherine's words just now. He adjusted his body position, then leaned towards Katherine with his hands forming a pyramid, showing deep interest in Katherine's earlier words. "Hm, you guys managed to find the secret base of Silvano? Very interesting,” said Keith. “Given that all the countermeasures we put in place to deal with the threat of those two guys did not succeed in getting them back off, I guess this is the reason. So? Have you guys sent anyone there to check the location?” "Not yet, Boss. We could not send people there since we are still waiting for your order." "Oh, I see..." Keith looked disappointed for a moment, before continuing. "You should just do it without asking my approval when it comes to something this important." “With the risk that we will lose a lot of people if we immediately rush to check the location without doing additional calculations and careful planning? Seriously, Boss?" Katherine
Alan was standing in front of room 325 with Cassandra, observing from a distance the commotion made by Gina when she caught the woman's husband having an affair with another woman."You didn't try to break it up?" Cassandra leaned toward Alan with a look of concern on her face."Why should I let him go? This is interesting," Alan even tried hard to hold back laughter, with one hand taking a smartphone from the pocket of his formal coat, calling his twin sister. “I'm sure that Aura will definitely like it!”“But, Mr Ch–”“Shh!” Alan put his index finger on Cassandra's lips, preventing the female employee from revealing his true name. "It's Michael. MichaelPatrick.”“I-I am really sorry!”“No worries,” Alan took his index finger away from Cassandra, then whistled happily when he found that his call was starting to connect to Aura.“Alan? What's the situation–”“I think you will definitely like it!”“Pardons?”“Deng deng! (Wait, wait!) I'll switch to video call mode,” Alan took his smart
Gina's angry screams became an alarm for Alan and Cassandra to rush into the room and take Gina away from that place before the riot got worse.“I will kill you! I'm serious, you fucking idiot! Do you think I am not capable of killing some pricks like you!? Let me show you!”Both he and Cassandra both sent meaningful glances.“I guess this is a sign that I should return to my role,” Alan shrugged resignedly at Cassandra, then immediately sent a glare towards the female employee. "And for God's sake, once I hear you ask the question 'will I be fired', I will gag you."“Sorry,” Cassandra looked down wearily."Forget it," Alan let out a long breath, giving up on continuing to serve Cassandra. Enough time has been wasted thanks to those fucking questions. He wore a panicked expression as he motioned for Cassandra to follow his plan, rushing inside."Gina, please ... it's just a small misunderstanding," Freddy tried to push his luck by getting closer to Gina once again but stepped back in
It took longer than initially expected for Keith to read through all the reports provided by Katherine regarding the execution of his master plan along with the minor issues currently being faced by his organisation, such as the trade in firearms, and brothels. The point was all the other minor problems that he could solve today, too.Since the dispute between the Aldebrando group and the Skylar group had subsided thanks to the help of Derek Skylar (he hated to admit it, but that stupid man really did a great service to his group), the burden of the problem, which was mostly caused by the actions of Derek Skylar's right hand man, had been lighter. So now he no longer has to face the Skylar members who misbehave in his territory and get some new connections as a result of it."Boss? Would you like to take some candies?"Viktor's question distracted him for a moment from the view outside the window of the car that Viktor was driving, and he turned towards Viktor, who had already handed h
The ride to his cafe was very unpleasant. Keith jumped out of the car as soon as Viktor pulled over in front of Gilbert's Cafe, unbuckled his seat belt, and grumbled on his way out. His feelings had already soured, thanks to Viktor, who was succeeding in ruining his mood just now. Even though he finally understood that Viktor meant no harm when he offered candy to him, his pride was still hurt. Coupled with the unexpected surprise from Viktor, who told his life story to make him feel guilty and awkward at the same time, he was forced to swallow his pride by taking one of the candies offered by Viktor earlier. He walked while making a grumbling face, as his way to cover up the damage done to his self-esteem by eating the candy just now. He saw the reflection of Viktor's figure walking quickly after him in the window of the cafe's entrance as soon as he stood at the door. He was surprised to see Viktor there, deciding to turn around to face Viktor, who looked relieved to see him."

[Sempione Park, Ponte delle Sirenete]Marie walked down the path in Sempione Park desperately. It had been almost a week since Keith had left home and asked for a divorce from her, making her immediately cancel all her work schedules for the next month to look for Keith.Armed with the information she got from Keith's parents that Keith went to Italy, precisely in Milan, she decided to book a ticket to Italy in a hurry.For days, she travelled the streets of Milan. She did not have any free time to explore the biggest and most complete fashion shopping centre there or visit tourist attractions. She only tried the local food, but only because she had to fill her stomach with food while trying to find her husband.Unfortunately, she had been in this place for a week, and she could not find her husband there. She was so stupid that she forgot to ask her mother-in-law where exactly Keith had gone in her panic. Now, she was confused, cursing her stupidity. How could she find Keith? Milan
A few days later...Marie walked into her mansion feeling uncertain after parking her car in the garage. Her memories of what happened a few days ago at her extended family's house still felt like yesterday. It was hard for her to accept the fact that all this time, her husband had been hiding the fact about his identity as the head of the mafia. Also, the fact that her husband decided to kill all of her extended family, leaving only her father, Uncle Charles, and Cecilia.For days, she tried to understand why Keith did it. She rented a hotel on the edge of Rose City as a way to calm down. Not to the Pacifica Hotel, considering the fact that it was a gift from Dean Aldebrando as their wedding present, which would make Keith aware of her whereabouts. She wanted to get away from it all. He wanted to have time to himself, to reflect on everything. But last night, he realised one thing. Everything that happened didn't matter anymore. She found that compared to having her husband by he
Cecilia looked at her father who still didn't dare to look at her when she arrived at Gilbert's cafe ten minutes ago. She knew that her father was a rigid, military type of person, so it was difficult for her father to admit all of Keith's statements about the reasons behind her parents' deaths. That was the reason why she waited until her father was ready to tell her everything. But ten minutes was not a fast time, and she wanted to hear the truth directly from her father's lips, not from anyone else."I know this sounds hard for you to accept, but I'm doing all this for you-"PLAKK!!!Her attention was diverted from her father to Keith and Marie. The sound of her cousin's slap told her instantly that Keith had confessed everything. And her cousin, she assumed, could not take it well."You secretly helped my company, I tried to understand it, although I still don't like your ways," Marie's eyes glazed over. "But you even went as far as killing all of my extended family, leaving only
Hearing Aura's exclamation gave him the signal to get out of this place immediately. The atmosphere in Hermann's living room gets even more chaotic when he told Gina the true facts about the husband she's been married to all this time. Now, Gina and Freddy were fighting again, making a scene, which made everyone around them were trying hard to break up the two people.Taking advantage of the chaos created there, Keith used the opportunity to put his revolver into his waistband, then pulled the hands of his father-in-law, as well as Uncle Charles, to leave this place immediately. "What's wrong?" Uncle Charles looked confused while running, but still complied with Keith's request to leave the Hermann mansion. "Why are we leaving-""Save your questions for later!" exclaimed Keith. He whistled loudly once he reached the gate. It did not take him long to find a saloon car appearing in front of them. The car door opened automatically."After you."Alfred without hesitation got into the ca
James Hermann was the first to move from his spot. The old man's jaw hardened, furious with anger."What a sassy mouth you have, young man!" James Hermann's hand grabbed Keith by the collar, but Keith did not lose his composure in the slightest. "On what basis are your false accusations?!""Grandpa! Let go of him!" Marie exclaimed in a panic once she realised what James Hermann was doing to Keith."Don't try to stop me, you unworthy grandchild!" James hissed, his gaze still fixed on Keith. "My business is with this moron! Answer my question!""I get this, Marie. Rest assured," Keith signalled to Marie to remain calm, and Marie reluctantly complied. "I have evidence to back up my statement just now. But first, let go of your grip. Do you think I can continue my speech in this position?"James seemed to consider Keith's words because the old man finally complied with Keith and released his grip, sitting back in his chair. Keith reached for his smartphone, calling Alan."Alan, bring Mr T
All the way to her grandfather's house, Marie felt restless. The fire incident with her personal assistant made her anxious. Derek told her that it might be the work of her uncle who wanted to spread terror in Rose City, but she wasn't sure if that was the only reason.What's more, Keith neither cared nor tried to bring up the matter when she tried to broach the subject. Keith just assumed that it was a coincidence—nothing to think about.Now, he was in the living room, along with his father's entire extended family, attending his grandfather's birthday party. His hand shook the stem of the wine glass filled with red wine served with an uncertain feeling. He did not see Cecilia anywhere at all.Was Cecilia not coming? Or perhaps, her cousin was late for something?She took out her smartphone and sent a short message to Cecilia before cramming it back into her handbag."Your face is so tense. Is it because you're still thinking about your company going bankrupt?"Gina Hermann, her cous
"Welcome back, Mrs. Clark."Rosemarie answered her household manager's greeting with a faint murmur, taking off her high heels and slipping into house slippers. Fatigue enveloped her after almost a day of staring at the computer screen without stopping and also solving business problems with new investors.“Yes…”"I wanted to inform you that an invitation letter was sent for you today.""Invitation letter? From whom?"“From your grandfather, I think…”Marie suddenly felt uneasy. His tiredness vanished in an instant, and he went straight to his household manager, and the old woman handed him an envelope containing the invitation letter that the woman meant.As soon as she learned the contents of the letter, her blood boiled, filled with the anger that was so attached. The letter was an official invitation from her paternal grandfather,To Mrs. Rosemarie Clark.You are invited to attend James Hermann's 64th birthday. The event will be held tomorrow, at 16:00. Wear formal clothes.How c
Keith tapped his fingers on the table after taking a sip of the mineral water that one of the servers had just served him. His eyes glanced out the window of the restaurant, waiting for the arrival of someone.Currently, he was in the restaurant built by his grandfather at the Hotel Pacifica as a gift for his marriage to Marie.He chose this restaurant for a simple reason: it was his, and it was filled with people he could trust. So he did not need to look for hidden places or need privacy to talk about anything confidential.“Can you imagine? There were three fire incidents in a row! Not to mention the presence of journalists who several times tried to cover the news by claiming to be the family of the fire victims! I don't know if they've lost empathy or what, but this whole thing is definitely weird to me!”Keith thought back to his wife's words once he managed to take care of this suspicious person. Marie was quite surprised to find Derek Skylar coming with him, but his wife's att
