“The Hogs failed?” Francis the criminal lawyer cut the call. I just wanted him beat, so I can push the blame onto Jacob or his eldest son, which will surely make him flee from the villa. But why is just beating this bastard taking so long? I want my son to enter Selena‘s daughter‘s life, so I can become related to Selena at least this way, but...” after thinking a bit, he dialed another number. “Hello, Blackbear. What happened to the task I gave you? Were you fucking sleeping?” “I was working on it, Mr. Francis, ” Blackbear replied a little politely, “but you went and asked the useless Hogs to finish the task that even four of my men couldn‘t finish?” “Let‘s get to the point. How much time will you need?” “A month. Not a day more.” “Fine,” Francis‘ voice turned cold. “If you fail this time, be prepared to see the samurai.” He then ended the call. “Edward said he‘ll take care of the son–in–law in a month as well, didn‘t he? Let‘s see which one of us will succeed first.” “Why, sir?” Francis‘ assistant, a gorgeous young lady with curly hair, asked as she typed a document on her desktop. “1 know you got divorced recently, but why do you want to enter Selena‘s life now? She‘s well over fifty, isn‘t she? Is it because she was your first love?
“Selena may be an old woman to you,” Francis said and smiled as he remembered the days when he and Selena went to watch movies together and had fun on the beach, “but she was the only woman who made me feel alive in this boring world.” When he failed a subject in one of the semesters, he was about to commit suicide by jumping from the campus‘ rooftop. However, it was Selena who held his hand and stopped him and changed his mind. If not for her, he wouldn‘t even be alive today. Though they became great friends afterward, things changed when Selenia suddenly became a celebrity. Francis felt inferior and avoided meeting her or responding to her calls. By the time he realized how foolish he was, she had already become a popular star and began living in an entirely different world. He couldn‘t just go and ask her to marry him after not even meeting her in years. After hearing of Selena‘s marriage, he ended up marrying his relative, but his heart had always been thinking of Selena “What I expect from her isn‘t to roll in the bed with me,” Francis said. “I just want her to be happy and easygoing like she was in the past.” Despite Francis saying such positive words, the assistant took his words with a grain of salt.

all, Francis‘ wife had divorced after seeing him having an affair with his assistant. Francis paid his assistant more just to keep her by his side. After Francis left the room, the assistant just shook her head. “Men... once they have the taste of a woman and like it, they‘ll go to any lengths to keep that woman to themselves. I‘m sure he wants Selena all for himself as well, so that means he‘s going to go after every person that‘s her strength. Once he uproots her pillars of support and leaves her in dire straits, he‘ll fly in and shower his support. What a cunning old bastard. He thinks he has his hold on me, but it‘s the other way around, bitch. Making you willingly give divorce to your wife wasn‘t
hard, and wrapping you around my little finger and making you forget about Selena entirely won‘t be hard, either.” At Rye‘s Pizzas.
Benjamin‘s day at work started well. In the evening, the owner of the company personally visited in his Black Maserati to give a Honda to Benjamin. “Samael M. Breaker,” the owner introduced himself to Benjamin by shaking each other‘s hands. “Benjamin Wilde. It‘s an honor to finally meet you, sir. I‘ve heard a lot about you.” “Keep working hard, and you‘ll be seeing me often,” Samael said, handing over the car key to Benjamin “I can still make deliveries on a bike, right?” Benjamin had to ask just to make sure. “Of course. The car is yours,” Samael said. “Whether you use it during your work hours or not is entirely up to you.” Samael was a tall man with long dark curly hair. Benjamin was quite fair, but Samael had this pale skin that just stole the attention of the female workers. His black bespoke suit would cost over 60,000 dollars, but his red diamond studded tie would easily cost over 100,000 dollars. Benjamin could totally understand why most people couldn‘t even take their eyes off of Samael. Some of the girls asked to check his sunglasses, and then began to murmur the fact that they were gold trimmed. When Christopher guessed that their price would be over 300,000 dollars, everyone was left shocked. Now they all understood why the owner of Rye‘s Pizzas was nicknamed Mr. Million, because the things he wore were easily worth a million dollars. Jasmine tried to seduce Samael by showing a bit of her non– existent cleavage when he asked her how she was doing at work along with other workers, but she didn‘t receive any response. After Samael left, Jasmine felt disappointed for missing a great chance. Still, seeing Benjamin standing by his new gray Honda car, she approached him and said, “Can you drop me
at my home, please?” “Don‘t you have Chrstiopher for that?” Benjamin asked.‘ She had no response for that, and she could only watch him leave. After he drove off in his new car, she felt jealous, “His wife is really lucky.” She then went and asked Christopher to give him a ride to her home. He initially refused, saying that he still had work left to do, but when she massaged his shoulders with her delicate fingers, he was pleased and then dropped her at her home.
