Efron went back to his home and upon checking his phone, he received a message coming from an unknown number but he read the message anyway."Hey bro... this is Melvin, I am a paid assassin of Sir Carlo... I am with Jeffrey and we were told to accompany you in saving Tricia. Tell us where your address is and we will go there. According to sir Carlo, you won't be able to save Tricia because Sergio has many guards guarding the warehouse. I know you would not trust either me or Jeffrey but given the circumstances, we don't have a choice but to team up. Don't worry, we will follow everything that you say... that's the instruction that sir Carlo has given to us. Please reply as soon as possible, we will wait for your response!"Efron laughed in a mocking way after he read the message. "What a jerk? Do they think I need them to save Tricia? I can do this by myself!"The unknown number contacted Efron. At first he did not want to answer the call but Melvin keeps on bombarding his inbox messa
Carlo grinned. "No, that is not what I want you to do... I want you to kill those gunmen that Rachel's father hired. I have a suspicion that Sergio might reveal my secret affair with that prostitute lady. Now, act like normal and wait until it's perfect time to finish the job they started!"Melvin and Jeffrey smiled as they are both in favor of Carlo's plan."Okay boss, we've got your back. But there is one problem left, how can we recognize the faces of those gunmen that your father-in-law hired?" asked Melvin.Carlo answered. "I don't know the answer for that, you should figure out them yourselves. I am sure that you can discern different people so this one should be a piece of cake for both of you!""Sir Carlo, in as much as I'd like, it would be difficult for us to recognize their faces. Just give us some clues and we can adjust!"Carlo was pissed off with Melvin. He thought that they are not competitive enough for the job. "If you cannot do the job, then say it! I will just find
On the other hand, Rachel got tired of having sex with her husband, and so she slept on the bed. Whereas, Carlo was smoking outside his house, thinking about a lot of things. He was pulled away from his thought when a familiar white van stopped in front of their mansion.He dropped his cigarette on the ground ground and stepped on it to put out the fire. When the van opened, Thomas and five of his bodyguards showed up. His eyes widened in shock."What the hell is doing here?" Carlo asked himself. He approached the door and opened it.Thomas gave Carlo a sarcastic smile as if he was planning something. "It has been a while Carlo... would you mind if I come inside? There's an important matter I'd like to personally discuss with you!"Carlo was trembling and there is no words coming out on his mouth."Relax, I am not planning on hurting you if you cooperate. Besides, I'm beyond happy to see you and my precious daughter back together... but I warned you, do not try to play with her heart.
Suddenly, Thomas' phone rang interrupting their conversation. Every remained silence as Thomas answered his call and put it in a loudspeaker."Sir, we have located the exact location of Sergio's possible hideout and it's not far from here!" said the person who on the other line, the one that Thomas assigned to find Sergio's whereabouts.Carlo was sweating heavenly upon hearing this, he knew that it was only a matter of time before they learned about his mistress Tricia. He tried to calm down himself and continue listening."I see! I expect you would succeed Vincent... that's a great news. Any update aside from that?" asked Thomas over the phone."Yes... I think they have taken a hostage inside the warehouse but that's the only thing I know so far, sir!" answered Vincent. "There are many civilians scattered in that place and it would be difficult to discern if they are Sergio's people or not! I think we need to add more!" he appealed."That's a good thing to know," he looked at Carlo a
Thomas lost his patience and stood up. "Well Carlo, you leave me with no other choice but to your force in order to prevent you from ruining my plans," he looked at his five body guards. "Restrain Carlo and if he resists, feel free to beat him!"Carlo looked down and frowned. In his mind, he already accepted defeat. But Rachel did not allow them to touch Carlo."I am sorry but there is no way I'm gonna let you touch my husband and father... not in my watch!""Do it," said Thomas with authority. "Do not try to harm my daughter... just calm her down!"Carlo speaks up. "Father, I begged you not to hurt your own daughter. She has nothing to do with this. I won't resist but in exchange of that, you should let her-"Rachel interrupted her husband. "Please Carlo, I won't let them hurt you by any means. Just hang on, I can find a way to save you!"Thomas looked at Carlo with hatred. "I don't give a damn to a word that comes in either of your fucking mouths. I am tired of this nonsense convers
"But sir Thomas, would it be okay if you tell a story about how you became a rich man?" Diego asked in wonder."Why do you ask that, Diego?""J-just to kill time sir Thomas. However, if you don't want to tell your story... then it's fine by me!""Not a problem," said Thomas. "Besides, my story before becoming a disgusting rich is really something that you might find inspirational. As a matter of fact, I had plenty of opportunities to share my stories to different people. Born in Olongapo in November 1945, I was not born with a silver spoon in my mouth. Wanting to escape poverty, I followed my father in Metro Manila only to experience a miserable youth here. I struggled hard living in Metro Manila and had to learn to get along. Determined to become successful, I worked hard day and night to provide for my needs.I started out with small business stores that helped them in their day-to-day life. Me and my father lived in a small space until the fruits of our labor made them successful i
Diego then went at the back of Carlo and asked permission to Thomas. "Sir, just say a word and I'm gonna make this guy scream in pain by fucking him hard!"Thomas wiped his face and replied at Diego. "Just wait a sec... let us give Carlo a second chance!"Carlo laughed in a mocking way. "Hahahaha... would you really think I am going to say something? The moment I escaped this place, I am going to make sure that I will take my revenge!"Thomas sighed. "For the last time, what is your relationship with that person Sergio kidnapped?"Carlo insisted on not saying about his relationship with Tricia because if he does, it will be his end. At the back of his mind, he would rather endure the pain of being fucked by another man than to humiliate himself and his company once they found out about his mistress, especially because his investors are conservative. A flashback about him starting his business played on his mind again."I can still remember how I started my business... I grew up withou
Thomas' phone suddenly rang again and when he checked it, Vincent was the one calling him. He put his phone in a loudspeaker in order for Carlo to hear his conversation as well."Hello sir Thomas, I think I already know the relation of that young boy with the hostage!" said Vincent who was grasping to breathe."And how did you know about that?" Carlo asked."Answer him," said Thomas who knew that Carlo was indeed lying from the very start.Thomas lowered his voice to avoid being caught by Sergio or his men. "His name is Efron, I happened to recognize his face because my daughter is a student of his. And the hostage's name is Tricia, I saw her twice at the bar and she was actually quite popular there. I managed to infiltrate their warehouse without being noticed so I guarantee you that I am right!"Carlo felt it was the end of his world and his lies were about to be exposed... but not when Vincent continued speaking again. "Actually, Efron and Tricia might have a relationship!"Carlo t
