I stepped out of the room and headed straight to my desk. My hand moved quickly, grabbing my bag lying next to the chair. My heart was still pounding, my mind filled with the chaos that had just happened.

Without delay, I unzipped the bag and dug through it, looking for my small phone—the one David had given me. But… nothing.

My brows furrowed. I tried again, this time more frantically. My hand swept through everything inside, shifting around my wallet, pens, small notebook—everything was there, except that little phone.

“Don’t panic,” I whispered softly.

I opened the first drawer of the desk. Only a yellow folder filled with documents and a pack of gum. The second drawer was even emptier—just a stapler and a laptop charger. I s

  • Unravelling The Billionaire's Mask   Kick Out

    That day, the hospital was quite busy. The sounds of medical equipment and conversations blended together. As I entered the hospital, my steps were firm and full of conviction as I walked toward the receptionist, who was busy moving one file after another.“Excuse me, I’m looking for Dr. Anderson.”The receptionist looked at her computer screen. “One moment, I’ll check his schedule.”I sighed. My gaze wandered in all directions, looking for any sign that Dr. John might be somewhere in the corridor. Finally, the receptionist spoke, “Dr. Anderson is currently in the operating room. He can be contacted once he's finished. Is there anything else I can help you with?”I swallowed. “Do you know around what time the surgery will be over?”“It could take two to three hours, depending on the procedure, ma’am.”I nodded, trying to calm myself. “Alright, I’ll wait

    I still didn’t understand. After everything we’d been through, David just left me like that. Now, all the determination I had built to help him, to help that little girl lying in the hospital bed, as well as Daniel and Dr. John, felt like an empty hope something I would never be able to achieve.Was everything Dr. John said true? Was it really that hard to go up against Mr. Jimmy? Even Danielm David’s best friend couldn’t bring him down? Had I truly taken the wrong step? The wrong path? Had I failed to uncover the truth?Why did Dr. John’s painful words, followed by David’s indifference, feel like my entire world was collapsing? My heart burned. It hurt. I felt suffocated. My breath caught in my throat, something sharp pierced through my chest

    The photocopy machine worked as it should. Sheets of paper were copied perfectly. Its humming sounded like the heartbeat of that office, pulsing steadily in the orderly silence. Documents came and went, faces passed by like shadows. I stood still, my eyes watching the stream of paper emerging one by one, as if searching for something more than just a duplicate.It had been two days since David last contacted me. Second by second, day by day, David and his case slowly faded. Strange people and hired killers slowly vanished from my world. I returned to my life, but my mind kept questioning things about David that things no one else knew.I had plenty of information, but no solid evidence about the children. Nothing. As if I had found nothing at all. And yet, I knew so much even about David and his life.Is this the pe

  • Unravelling The Billionaire's Mask   One Day Before His Died

    Detective Harry walked ahead of me, leading the way through each corridor of the building. Every room looked busy. Some officers were typing rapidly on their computers, while others were deep in heated debates about cases I couldn’t begin to guess.After a while, we reached a place at the far back of the building. Detective Harry stopped in front of a door labeled ‘Morgue.’A doctor guided us. As the door opened, the sharp scent of formalin immediately rushed out, stinging my nose and triggering a wave of discomfort. The room was cold, dim, and eerily quiet as if time itself had stopped inside. On the left side, metal drawers were lined up neatly, each one holding a tragic story now at its end.The doctor slowly walked over to one of the drawers and gently pulled it open. Inside lay a body covered by a white sheet. Detective Harry stared at it without blinking, his expression unreadable , somewhere between grief and determination.

    “Hanna.”Someone called out to me just as I stepped out of the police station. Detective Harry. That stalking detective.“Excuse me? Hanna?”He caught his breath. His face was arranged in that formal expression he always used with me.“Yes, Hanna.”I frowned. First, he called me Mrs. Harper, then Hanna, then back to Mrs. Harper, and now Hanna again.What does he actually want?“Ms. Harper. Call me Ms. Harper,” I said firmly.“But we already agreed to use first names, didn’t we?”I crossed my arms, giving him a sharp look that wasn’t entirely serious.“Then what was that earlier in the room? What did you call me?”He sighed slowly. “That… was just professional, Hanna. I was doing my job. You know that.”I narrowed my eyes, as if weighing his answer.“Weird man,” I muttered, frownin

    The scariest thing is when we think we're protected but we’re not.The atmosphere in this room is still the same as when I first came here. Lonely and frightening. I sat on the sofa, my back pressed tightly against the backrest, eyes fixed on the firmly closed front door. My breathing tried to remain calm but my racing heartbeat betrayed me. Only the ticking of the wall clock and the soft hum of the AC kept me company while I waited for the security staff to arrive.Five minutes passed. Suddenly, the doorbell shattered the silence. I jolted.“Security staff” a voice from behind the door said flatly, formal, but there was something off. Too calm. Too perfect.I didn’t respond right away. My heart pounded hard. I stared at the wooden door, trying to pierce it with my gaze. I touched the tip of the knife to my pants leg just in case. “Please show your ID” I said, trying to sound firm though my voice came o

  • Unravelling The Billionaire's Mask   The Encounter

    I stood in the midst of all the people dancing to the music that could be heard all the way to the end of the island. A glass of champagne was clutched in one hand and still full, I hadn't had a sip. My eyes were fixed on the object that was the reason I was on this island. David Alexander Thomas, the man rumoured to have an illegal business with blood on his hands. His name was always in my head when I received this business. He stood at the centre of the conversation, surrounded by several women with fake smiles.This man was not just a target. He was a threat, someone who operated under the shadow of the law, with rumours of a business full of blood and dark secrets. I decided to approach him.I gulped down my drink and placed my empty glass on a nearby table, then began to step quietly towards him. As we got closer, he turned his head, as if he noticed me before I even spoke. His smile was small, but there was a sharp look in his eyes.“Mr.David,” I said in a casual tone, as if w

    The music was still blaring that afternoon. Some were partying, eating, and surfing with gusto. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. Me, still standing in front of the glass, waited for Mr.David to pull a blue folder from the shelf. After he got the book. He placed it on the brown table of his desk. The folder was thick and worn. He opened it from the back, and stopped at a sheet containing a photograph. Underneath it was a date written in black ink that was still clear. 13 August. The date that was in my question moments ago. The date I was desperate to get an answer to from Mr. David. When I saw his eyes, he stared at the date for a long time, his eyes seemed to be full of feelings that were difficult to interpret. “This is what you asked me.” he said as he pushed the folder slightly towards me. “Look at this photo carefully.” he said while reading the look on my face. As if in the hope that I would understand the meaning of the photo. “The answer to your question about the

Balloons floated up from under the tables, filling the room. On the monitor screen, a large message appeared:“Congratulations, Hanna.”The balloons floated to the ceiling, decorating it with cheerful colors. Some were star-shaped, others round, all moving slowly as if time itself was celebrating.I stood frozen for a moment. My eyes scanned the smiling faces—some holding back tears. Hands reached out to hug me.

His gaze was neutral as if he had seen me long before I noticed him."Hi, Harry," I replied, forcing a fake smile."What are you doing here?"I took a slow breath, trying to craft a reasonable answer without revealing too much information."Visiting Carlos," I said.He stared at me as if waiting for me to continue."I visited Carlos because I want
