“Our drug storage is on fire!” Dmitri Savvin, Harold’s man in the drug department, called him.

It rushed Harold to leave his suburb house and headed to the storage location. The storage was in another suburb. The location was even more secluded, so it took the fire truck an hour to reach there. By the time they arrived, the fire had already burned half of the building. 

It needed three hours to extinguish the fire. When the fire could be put out, the storage was already burned completely until it left smoke and ruin. Before Harold could assign someone to clean the area and save the rest of the goods, he got a phone call. 

Since it was from an unknown number, he ignored it. However, the caller sent him a text. ‘Pick my call. You will find an interesting thing.’ It made him wond

    After all The Silent Syndicate’s leaders left the headquarters, Harold went to his penthouse. Viona was in his bed, waiting for him, and as they agreed, the routine was she would be in nude. He stripped his clothes quickly and joined her in bed.This time, he took a black blindfold from a drawer of a nightstand next to the bed and put it around Viona’s eyes. Then he handcuffed her arms before finally touching her body and had sex with her. He imagined Viona as Emily, but when he kissed her lips, it was different since Emily usually returned his kiss with a little shyness while Viona did it wildly.However, he closed his eyes and kept imagining her as Emily, and he smiled after reaching his satisfaction. Though when he opened his eyes, his smile faded because it wasn’t Emily who was with him now.

    However, the woman used a mask, so Jacob couldn’t see her face clearly. “Why do you wear the mask?”She whispered, “I have the flu, so I can’t speak loudly. I don’t want to spread the virus.”“I don’t mind.” He caressed her hair. “It’s been almost two years since the last time I saw you. I miss you, honey.”Then, Viona hugged Jacob and prepared her ring by twisting it. Soon, a soft needle came out. It was a special needle with nerve potion to create a hallucination in people’s minds. She thrust the needle into Jacob’s back and waited a few seconds to see any reactions from him.“Baby, where were you? Did you live with Montgomery all this time?”

Arturo was Jacob’s mentor, more like a father to him. He trusted him so much until appointed him to be the next leader instead of choosing Al, his son.Jacob’s eyes blazed fire now because Viona’s mistakes were too much. She wanted to trick him into believing her as Emily and trying to seduce him. Now it was even getting worse. Viona tried to set him against Arturo.So, he walked to approach her. He stared at her for a few seconds, then he aimed his gun right at her temple.“No! No!” She shook like a leaf. “Don’t do this!” Then she closed her eyes and wh

When he saw Viona in his office with Emily, pretending to have an affair with someone else, he should fire her immediately. Yet, he ignored it, and it brought a catastrophe not only in his relationship with Emily but also with Arturo.Scratching and messing up his hair with a hand, he sank his head to the couch. No matter how much he tried to think about what happened, he couldn’t punish Arturo. Despite getting imm

When the administration staff knew Jacob came to bring his mother’s body, a nurse approached him.“Mr. Jacob Jefferson?” the nurse asked.“Yes, I’m Jacob Jefferson, and you are?”“I’m Cindy Randall. I’m a nurse who accompanied and checked on your mother.”Jacob nodded. “I see. Thank you for helping my mother before she passed away,” he said calmly.

    When Emily heard about Tanya’s funeral, she wanted to come. No matter what happened between Jacob and her, she was engaged to Jacob back then. Tanya also treated her well, so she felt it was necessary to come to the funeral to give her last respect.However, Harold was against her. “Baby, you will invite problems by coming to the funeral.”“What do you mean?” she asked.Even after marrying him, his wife was still so naive. He let out a sigh. “When Jefferson sees you, do you think he will let you go?”Tilting her head to the side, she creased her forehead because she disagreed with Harold. “He doesn’t have any other choice. I’m a married woman.”

    It was nine thirty a.m. when Emily prepared to go to the funeral. She wore a black silk dress. Harold shook his head when he saw her.“What?” She raised her eyebrow.“You must wear a mask.”“A mask?” she asked. “What for?”“So Jefferson won’t recognize you.”Emily let out a sigh. It’s a good idea, but wasn’t it too much? She was startled when Harold took a black veil and gave it to her.“Wear it, love. So, you can give your respect there while not attracting attention to yourself.”She wore it without protest. He groaned inside because

Yet, judging from Jacob’s reaction that he didn’t deny it, she knew it was true.No matter what, Jacob would know about it eventually. It was better to come clean with him, so it avoided any future complications.

    Emily stared at Jacob and the ring. She bit her lower lip because she didn’t know what to say.Jacob took a deep breath because he wasn’t ready to accept a refusal. Then he forced a smile. “It’s okay if you don’t want to marry me now. Maybe you want to enjoy your time alone first.”But then Emily shook her head. “No.” She held both of his hands. “I want to make you the happiest man, Jacob. So, it’s a yes.”Jacob immediately stood and put the ring on her finger. Then he kissed her lips and hugged her tightly.He laughed and shook his head. “I thought you would say no.

The offer is fifty trillion with fifty years of credit and a trillion of payment each year and a trillion for the down payment,” Jacob said.Harold whistled to hear the number, but he knew with various businesses the Gold Cleaner had, fifty trillion was a reasonable price. “Anyone in your team want to enter our boat?”“Nope, they are happy with us.” He was smiling when saying it. “So, it will be purely a facility, land, building, systems, and the networks we will sell and transfer to you.”

It was an unforgivable act because Stanley’s betrayal cost Art’s life.Jacob’s eyes were chilly when he gazed at Stanley. “You told us earlier that Gold Cleaner is your family and will stay like that. You even said you didn’t want to work under Montgomery and the Silent Syndicate.” Then Jacob added slowly to emphasize his words, “Now we all know it’s all just bullshit!”
