"We have him sir, and he's willing to give whatever information we need." Carlos pushed his glasses upwards as he spoke so calmly to his boss. "As he should, I don't need to see him, tell Tiger to complete the task." "Yes, boss."
"The new package is ready and will be launched tomorrow, we've collaborated with madams company to have an outstanding launch since that is the best company in the market now," Carlos stated.
While the double were still having their conversation a white Maybach arrived at the entrance of the mansion, escorted by two convoys. Antonio and his wife Lou got out of the car as they advanced further into the mansion. Liam wondered what this sudden visit was about, he knows Antonio wanted to see him, but he was going to visit later on.
At the same time, a black Limo also arrived at the entrance of the mansion, which had Liam frown a little. From the car, he could tell who he was, but why was he angry? Ethan stepped out of the car hurriedly to the garden. He had already seen the man from afar, he was terrified, scared by what he saw today.
At first, he thought it was all a joke, but after that little gift, he knew this man had no heart, he's a ruthless man. A beast. "How could you send those fingers to me Liam?" Ethan had thought to be rational towards him this time.
Maybe Liam got offended at his irrationality the last time that's why he had to cut the fingers of his very own brothers. But seeing Liam's impassive expression, the rage he tried to hide in, came rushing out like wildfire. If he had a weapon right now, he could kill this man before him.
There's nothing special about Mr. Black other than having multiple minions fight for him, if both men were ever involved In physical combat, Ethan's very sure he would beat the hell out of this man.
With a brow raised in astonishment, Liam stared at Ethan, he loved the way he provoked this man. "It seems you're not pleased with my gift Ethan. However, I can ask my guards to prepare a spontaneous dish with it next time, so it'll be more pleasing to you." He said calmly.
"I don't want the deal anymore, don't you get it." "You said the only way to accept my proposal was if you saw your friends, I've paid my part of the deal, which each body part will be sent to you every day. It's time to pay yours. Let's not forget you already signed the agreement and there's no going back."
.
Mum, Dad." Elsa rushed towards them for a tight hug, she didn't worry much about them cause Liam promised to handle everything. Seeing they were perfectly fine, she felt relieved and okay, Liam sure did keep his promise. Though their visit was impromptu, she was still very much happy they were here.
"You said nothing about your arrival." "We wanted to surprise you, now where's that stubborn of yours?" Antonio asked. "He went out with Carlos, he should be back soon." She smiled into their hands, as usual, their beautiful happy princess.
"What's that on your hands, Elsa?" Lou suddenly asked. While Elsa welcomed them in, joyfully, she had forgotten about her recently acquired injury, maybe cause she didn't feel the pain anymore. "I was trying to cook, and then I cut myself." She explained.
"Already performing your wife duties aren't you?" Elsa bent her head coyly at her mother's words. Most of the skills and good morals she's inherited today are caused by her mother. She's the true definition of her mother's daughter. "Come here love, it seems we have a lot to talk about." She held her baby's hands.
Sincerely, she has missed most of her daughters' life, as Lou calls those last teenage days, the most important part of every girl. She didn't want her baby to grow so quickly, a girl they kept away from the evil of the world, but somehow that evil found its way to her.
She wished they could go back to before this all started, to change a few things that needed to be changed, especially erasing her memory with Beaufort. There isn't a day passed that she doesn't think of the man and how he died at her hands. Though she was healing and finally letting go gradually, these feelings still hunt her down.
With everything Elsa's gone through, his only prayer is that her daughter doesn't go through what she has gone through, cause the pain is really unbearable. She held her baby's hands in hers, "take me to your room honey." "Uhm... Mum, that room isn't just my room. But are you planning on staying? I'll have someone prepare a room for you." Elsa totally forgot there were no maids in the mansion.
Her eyes were stocked to the man who just stepped in, making Lou turn to see what has trapped her daughter that way. "Father." Liam stepped in gradually. "Son," Antonio responded with a smile. He knew Liam went against his will, doing things his way for them to be free. He couldn't get angry at him, he loved him as a father would to his son. Liam has been more than helpful to his family, picking them in shambles and putting them back to normal.
He was more than grateful to this man, who knew his choice was the best not just for his daughter, but for his family too.
"Mother." "How are you doing son?" Lou asked. "Great." He sat on the next couch, "You never told me you were coming." He added. "We decided to surprise you today, besides my lovely here, desperately wanted to see her princess. She's missed her so much, you were not planning on tagging along were you?" "No, she isn't aware of our meeting." He met her gaze and she quickly averted hers.
Both women left the lounge for a tour around the mansion, leaving Liam and Antonio together. "I'm tired of hiding Liam, I want the world to know I'm alive."
.
"You should talk her into it, remind her of her friendship with Dax and the family. What if everything that happened was a setup on his side?" "I still feel like your brother got into a trap," Maisha said meaningfully. Everyone except Jesse knew Dax is obsessed with Elsa, with all this obsession, was it possible that he'd want to hurt her? What if there's a third party involved?
Jessie was still astonished at her mother's words, never in her life did she think Dax had a thing for Elsa. She always felt like they were that close cause of how related they are, or because they've known each other for quite some time. "And the part they tried to kill Liam?"
When she got no reply from her mother, she went on to say, "Dax is mature enough to make his decision, I know you're hurt mother, but just accept the truth. Dax changed from who he used to be to something else."
*SLAP*
Maisha's palm touched her daughter's cheek, "How dare you say such about your brother, I know you hated him and have always been jealous of him. Tell me what Dax did to you to deserve this hatred you pose towards him?" Jesse held her cheek as droplets of tears dropped on her pink cheek.
This is the first time someone has ever hit her this hard, she forced herself not to cry, but just could not hold it back in. Not because she's a weakling or cause it hurts her, but cause of the pain she felt in her heart. She always thought she was seeing or imagining things but she wasn't. Everything turned clear to her now. Her mother is the mastermind.
"Dax tried to harm Liam, he set Elsa up. You all never for once cared about her or her feelings, you wanted to give her out to Rafael against her will cause of your hate for Liam, yet you pretend like you know nothing. "Foolish child, Foolish daughter of mine."
The sudden raps on the door distracted both people from their actions and they both stared at the door. "Come in Wadsworth," Maisha said. "Madam, Master needs you in the executive lounge right now." Wadsworth bowed. "Any reason?" "Mr. Annakin just arrived, he said he has an important message about your son." Maisha didn't wait for the man to continue, pushing Jesse aside and sauntering to the lounge.

In another country entirely, another state and city, after the army base headed north to an isolated estate was Florence in a black convoy. She just arrived in the country after her few hours' flights from their city. She felt relieved and happy about this trip, just thinking of her profit already, made her so excited.
Her car arrived before an old creepy gate that yawned open and they drove in. Armed men in the white suit were already placed in strategic places just In case of an intruder. Being aware that their boss was expecting someone, they let her pass through.
Her car stopped at the entrance of the mansion, and she stepped out. "Welcome, Welcome my dear Florence." A man in a white suit stepped outstretching his hands and smiling broadly, displaying 8 his Gold teeth welcomed her in. "Mr. Harbetto Whyte." She called.
