“HELLO?”“Sir, we saw Bill on the outskirts.”“What is he doing there?” he wondered.“He’s inside his car, looking through a binocular.”Helios averted his gaze. “Who is his intended victim?”“He’s got his eye on Zoe’s house, Sir.”“Secure the area,” Helios said, gripping the steering wheel tightly. “Call me right away if he does anything bad,” he said.“Roger that.”What does Chloe’s brother do in place of Zoe?Bill appears to have distanced himself from Helios over the last month. As well as Grant and Gunner. And he has a feeling Bill is going to start a fight between them.He hopes Bill has no intention of betraying him. Because of his marriage to his sister, his group is already considered an ally. But he doubts Bill will discover his phony marriage.As a result, they must collaborate to strengthen the mafia’s foundation. However, it is not impossible that there could be a traitor in the group.Helios would not hesitate to kill Bill if he discovered that he was involved in everyth
“FIRE!”When Helios received the signal, he fired the 45 Caliber pistol he was holding until it ran out of ammo, and the target paper was hit only once—in the center.Grant walked up to him and tapped him on the shoulder. “You haven’t changed. You remain the best.”Helios let go of the gun and set it on the table. “Where’s Gunner?” he inquired, looking at Grant.“He’s on his way. He just came by and got what you asked for,” Grant explained.Helios nodded and began to leave the shooting range. He handed over a card to an employee who passed by.“Call Gun and inform him that we will meet in the hideout. How about Bill? Will he be there?” He inquired of Grant, who was following him.“I’m not sure. He is not returning my calls. Why don’t you call him instead?”Helios walked again, reaching for the card returned by the employee, and Grant kept up with him.“He’s not returning my calls either,” Helios said.“I’m concerned and perplexed by Bill’s recent actions. Amanda was also in the countr
ZOE has spent all day fixing things. In a few days, they will leave PH. She doesn’t want to go back home, but her friend and her mother have told her more than once that she should—time to deal with her problem. Helios was giving her trouble. And she wondered if she should give them a chance.But Helios will have to work hard to win her heart back. She still needs to be tamed, even if they already have a child. When she goes through with her plans, she can’t have a weak heart.“Everything all right?” Cindy spoke up. She has her arms crossed and is leaning against the door.Zo looked up and nodded. She got up and turned to her sleeping daughter.“Is she asleep again? She was just playing a minute ago,” Cindy said. She went in at last and sat down on the bed.Zoe is very thankful to Cindy because, ever since Helios left, Cindy has never left her. Even though she likes to tease her, she was glad always to have her on her side. Zoe will be a better person because of all her comforts.“Bab
“MOMMY, won’t Grant pick us up here?” Zoe asked as they were putting their things away. While Cindy held her baby and fed her, the baby cried. Her mom just sat on the couch and watched her.“Not anymore. He said he would just wait for us at the airport. “Then he’ll take us home,” her mom said.“Look at how the wrong Grant timed it. We need him now, but he’s not coming. Even though I didn’t want to see him, he couldn’t wait to get here.” Zoe put her last suitcase on top of her brown one. She told her mom, “I’m going straight home to our old apartment.”Her mother looked at her and raised her left eyebrow. It looked like she didn’t want to hear what her daughter had told her. She asked, “Who will take care of your child then? Won’t that put you both in danger?”Zoe moved toward Cindy’s house. “Mom, it’s into me. I’m not going to work yet anyway,” she said.“Hey, witch, for now, just stay in California. Next month, I’ll be busy, and I’m sure the twins are still busy with their business.
“HEY, dude, are you busy?”Helios stopped slicing his beefsteak and looked at Grant. “Why?”Grant frowned when he heard that Helios’s voice was cold. He can’t blame him or make him do what he wants because Helios isn’t used to being in that kind of situation.“Today, Zoe is going home, but I have a meeting. If you don’t mind, can you pick them up at the airport, if that’s possible?”Helios set down the fork and spoon he was holding with care. “Alright. What time will they arrive?” he asked.Grant then looked at the watch on his wrist. “Just wait until I call or text you. Still, Cindy hasn’t replied to any of my messages,” he said.So, he said, “Okay, I’ll just wait,” and he kept cutting his steak.Grant nodded and smiled thoughtfully, but Helios didn’t seem to notice.Helios had an idea all of a sudden. So, Grant asked him to come over because he wanted to ask him for a favor. Well, he will do it right away if Grant just tells him straight out. He doesn’t have to buy him a meal becaus
ZOE had been back in California for two days at this point. And because the country has a cold climate. Her daughter got sick and had a cold and a fever.And Helios is always going there to see them. The man makes sure that the people in her aunt Millie’s apartment are safe.Now, he was back there. He is taking care of their daughter while her mother takes a bath. But he doesn’t have Zoe’s permission. He saw Iris carrying the little girl and decided to help look for her on his own. And the old woman let him because Mrs. Levine and her friend were working on something.He is happy every time he gets close to the little girl while he is carrying her. He found it hard to stay away from them, but he knew that everything has its time. Now, even Zoe will dislike him because of what he does for a living. He will treat his daughter like a king treats his princess.When Zoe came down, the little girl was sleeping on Helios’ chest. When she saw what she saw, her eyes grew wide, and she quickly
“YOU KNOW? I don’t know why you come here every day. Did you want to work as a waiter at our café or as a bodyguard to keep an eye on us?” Zoe asked Helios.When she went downstairs early in the morning, she saw Helios again in their living room. So, she had to ask the man why he had to be there all the time.“Good morning to you, my sunshine. And of course, to this beautiful young angel,” he added as he kissed Hela Selene on the cheek. She is currently holding her daughter. The little girl then reached out her arms to Helios. It looks like she wants him to carry her.Helios didn’t want to let the little girl down, so he reached out and picked her up in his big arms.Zoe thought, “Sunshine, my foot.” But deep inside, she was flattered by it.Zoe doesn’t want to give him her daughter, but she realizes that the little girl also needs her father’s care. Even though she won’t admit it yet, it looks like fate is bringing them together.“Can... can I carry her for a little while? You can ke
WHEN THINGS were all done, Helios started walking and Zoe followed him. He pulled something out of his right pocket while his left hand was holding their daughter—it was a key. He then tapped the button, and the light of the silver car parked in front of their house blinked twice.It's an Audi S5. A luxurious car that cost a bunch of fortune. A family he will build is so damn lucky. Zoe hopes that it's her whom he wants to share the rest of his life."Nice car," she exclaimed. But the guy has no response.She opened the door at the back seat and put down the carrier. Helios then put Hela inside and adjusted the child's seatbelt."She has stuff like this?" the man asked suddenly and talked about the carrier. Zoe then nodded. "So, I'm concluding that you will accompany me in front?" he asked and let out a playful grin.'Damn!' She's afraid that the man was right. Why did she bring it if she could just carry the little girl?"A-Ah, of course. Besides, it would help if you didn't treat me
