Charles and Esther were all smiles as the Ferrari drove off from the supermarket on the way to the BDT mall construction site. In the car, Esther could not keep smiling. In front of one of the most influential social media people in the world, Charles just called her his girlfriend. She was also certain Charles knew the implications of that public confession. Esther had to be sure. Her hand slowly reached out to Charles's hand holding the gear shift. Charles knew it was coming and he held Esther's hand. "Isn't it a good thing that our earpieces were taken out before we drove off?" Charles said while focusing on the road and holding Esther's hand. "Yes, it is; but now what do I call you? Boss? Charles? Honey? It's quite complicated." said Esther. "Not really. You just have to call me boss while we are at work. Right now, we are going to BDT mall's construction site. You are smart enough to figure it out."

"Woah....look at this spread of food. And to think...our boss and lady boss prepared this for us." Keith complimented Charles and Esther."Thanks Keith; but what's with the lady boss thing?" asked Charles, perplexed that Keith would call Esther 'Lady Boss'."Come on, boss. It's really getting old and lame." said a smiling Victoria. "Yeah, you don't have to hide it from us anymore. We all know about the both of you." Nathan chimed in."Guys, you're confusing us both. What are we hiding from you?" Esther asked, still confused with the Phoenix Mafia's behaviour. "You really love to play coy, don't you." Holly replied with a cheeky smile."Go ahead, Ivy. Show them what we saw earlier this morning." said Henry.With a cheeky smile of her own, Ivy took her phone out and played a video and showed it to Charles and Esther. Both of them blushed as they watched the video.It turns out, the video I

Chapter 40

While Victoria was controlling her drone in rover mode and driving it around the abandoned industrial plant to look for clues, Charles turned his attention to the more pressing issue at hand. "The bomb squad is on the way, boss. They should be there in about five minutes." Esther reported. "The question still remains. Can they dispose all four bombs in one and a half hours?" Charles questioned. "In any event, we will need to communicate with the bomb squad when they arrive and I can't speak to them for obvious reasons." "Let me speak to them, boss. I've been observing the circuitry of the bombs and I think I can assist them on disarming them." Nathan volunteered. "Ok, you do that... because they're here." Charles replied, observing the bomb squad's arrival from his drone, perched on top of one of the beams on the construction site. However, it was not the bomb squad alone that arrived. Two Rolls Royces arrived behind the bomb squad. Out steppe

"Boss, Mr. Derek is on the way to the abandoned industrial plant." Ivy reported to Charles. "Just as well, while I understand brother Derek's reasons for being at the site, I think he would be more productive handling that Mr. Granger guy." Charles whispered. "Nathan, something is going on at the industrial plant. I think the perpetrator is going to adjust the countdown of the bombs. You'll need to hurry." Victoria said to Nathan. "Keith, light up your drone. Did you hear that, bomb squad three? Let's hustle. You see four identical wires in front of you. View them from left to right and cut the wires in this order: First, fourth, second and third." Nathan instructed. The third squad was halfway through to disarming the bomb when the timer on the bomb suddenly changed. From ten minutes remaining, the timer suddenly counted down from one minute. "Nathan, the timer changed. We have less than one minute." The bomb squad team exclaimed. "Ca

Chapter 42

Elliot Granger and his henchmen were placed in cuffs and loaded to the back on one of the police trucks. A Rolls Royce pulled over beside the truck and out stepped Derek, Desmond and Alex. They went to identify the people arrested and in the police truck.  "Well, well, well... if it isn't the man himself. So, you are Derek Quinton and not Derek Smith, eh?" Elliot sneered as he spotted Derek and crew standing outside the truck.  "Well, it doesn't matter who you are. You are, and always will be, a loser!" Elliot snapped.  Derek just stood there nonchalantly, "Says the person who got fired from his job and is now arrested, not just for murder but for attempted property damage. Who's the real loser here?"  Alex chuckled hearing his boss say that. "I thought you were going to say 'Who's the loser, now?' boss." said Alex, causing Derek and Desmond to chuckle too.  "Ha ha ha... laugh all you want, loser! You will meet your en

Chapter 43

Before Charles could begin his discussion with Yvonne, the restaurant servers came in with dish after dish. Peter Quinton had ordered for the Phoenix Mafia before they arrived in the Townsville casino. "Please, everyone, let's dig in the delicious food we have before us. We can't really discuss anything on an empty stomach now, can we?" Peter requested. Derek, Yvonne and the Phoenix Mafia nodded in agreement and decided to enjoy their dinner first. It was rare for the restaurant to serve Chinese dim sum for dinner; but that did not stop everyone from enjoying that various buns and dumplings that the restaurant had to offer. "That was wonderful. I never thought that Chinese cuisine would taste so good." said Charles. "My culinary eyes have been opened that much wider." "Haha, well if you have time, we all can fly to Hong Kong one day and enjoy truly authentic dim sum there." Peter replied, much to the excitement of the Phoenix Mafia. "That would be nice. We all have to fit a day to

"Mr. Quinton, may I suggest something? It may sound weird; but this may work." Esther chimed in.  "What do you have in mind, Esther?" Peter asked.  "Given what happened today, the Quinton Consortium's public relations team is going to have a field day with reporters and paparazzi questioning them about both projects."  "We, The Phoenix Mafia are assembled to handle situations like this. Although we can't claim credit because we are working from the shadows, we need a spokesperson of sorts, not to report our efforts to the world; but to announce the elimination of any threats towards the Quinton Consortium." said Esther.  "I think I understand what you mean, Esther. I'm willing to be that spokesperson." Yvonne replied.  "Are you sure, Yvonne? Do you need someone to help you with that?" Derek asked Yvonne.  "I think I am the most suitable person for this, Mr. Derek. If I am understanding Esther's idea correc

Chapter 45

It had been a long day for Charles and Esther, so they took their time to have a refreshing shower. Thirty minutes later, both of them sat on the living room sofa to watch the news, in particular, the scene and the cause of the explosion they saw from their balcony.Just as Charles and Esther predicted, the news program on the television showed scenes of three completely burnt up Rolls Royces, with no sight of any bodies in or around the cars."If you can see behind me, the flames are totally engulfing what was three Rolls Royces; but as of now, the police were unable to find any dead bodies in the Rolls Royces or anywhere else in a five mile radius." the reporter said on the television. "Do you think Mr. Quinton will be taking any action? I mean, a group of punks just attempted to kill the best Mafia team money can buy. Hehe." Charles tried to laugh off the attempt on their lives."Very funny, Charles Smith." Esthe

Chapter 46

Despite the first lights shining into his room windows, Charles was still exhausted from the previous night and wanted to sleep in. Not a chance. More morning sun rays continued to shine in through to his window. Eventually, Charles decided to wake up.  As Charles slowly opened his eyes, he felt a weight on his right arm. Turning to his right, he noticed it was Esther, his newly announced girlfriend, still fast asleep, holding on to him as she continued to snuggle to him.  'I'm really a lucky man.' Charles thought to himself as he leaned over to kiss Esther on her forehead. This caused Esther to stir and eventually she woke up, her eyes puffy and she looked up to Charles.  "Good morning, sugar puff. When did you come into my room? Oh, why are your eyes so puffed up?" Charles asked Esther.  "I'm sorry, honey. I had a nightmare last night. I dreamt that you were captured by Elliot and there was nothing I could not do anything about i

Chapter 47

The Townsville Carnival was an annual, week long family style event that the Quinton Consortium started ever since Derek Quinton fully took over the reins from his father.  Although it was like any family style carnival with food stands, carnival games, rollercoaster rides, the atmosphere was always a lively one as such carnivals have never been felt in Townsville until Derek Quinton opened the carnival.  This was Charles and Esther's first trip to the carnival. Like all other customers, they had to line up for admission; but they were more than willing to do so. They thought blending into the crowd was a better way to not get spotted by anyone they know.  "Wow, I've heard of how crowded this carnival can get. I had no idea it would be this crowded." Esther exclaimed as she and Charles entered the carnival after paying for admission.  "Yeah, me neither. This is quite a spectacle. There's a ferris wheel, a couple of high intensity r
