Karan took a step forward trying to follow them, but Lyle stopped him. Karan glared at him. ‘How dare he stop him, maybe he had a death wish?’ Lyle could see how unhappy his boss was and cleared his throat. “Boss, let them talk, they have not seen each other since… you know what happened. They need to close that chapter of their lives and move on.” What Lyle said made sense, but Karan was not sure what was going to happen between Krystal and Tony once they talk.He took her from him, and it was not her choice to stay with him in the beginning, but he thought she had grown to love him over the past months. Could he have misread her? He wondered. He loved Krystal, and he did not know what he would do if he lost her. He was already picturing them together with their baby and he could not lose that. But was he going to force her to stay with him like he did before?That was the question in his mind, he was happy when she chose to stay with him willingly the last time and now; he was not s
Tony went up to the room with the girl, he wanted to get wasted and have a good time tonight. He felt it was time to forget about Krystal and start living his life. This girl was going to be the start of him moving forward and living life for him and no one else. Since he got that bag of money over a year ago. It has been one challenge after another, and he was tired and needed time to breathe.When they got to the room Tony went to the mini fridge and took out all the alcohol inside then started drinking. “Don’t drink too much baby, we still have to play.” She said seductively but Tony paid her no mind and continued to down one drink after another. “How about you go and shower while I order room service. The night is still young, and you do not want to get waisted too quickly.” Tony still said nothing but did as she suggested.As soon as he disappeared into the bathroom, the young woman waited until she heard the water running. She rushed to her purse and fished out her phone. She se
The one who went to ask for the room number ended up opening the door, the room was quiet, and Karan was sleeping on the bed with Krystal in his arms. The men smirked; this was good, exceptionally good. Karan was a light sleeper, and he was awake the moment they opened the door. He knew Lyle would never come into the room, he would stand outside and knock. He slowly reached for his gun under the pillow.Once he got hold of it, he was fast in acting; he woke up and fired at the men. He got one right between his eyes, the other on the heart, and the other in the middle of the chest. Krystal woke up with a scream frightened by the gunshots. Karan went to check on the men finishing them off as he did so making sure they were dead before rushing to Krystal.He took her to the bathroom and placed her in the bathtub. “Sweetheart, I need you to be quiet now and I will be right back.” Krystal nodded while tears flowed down her cheeks. She was scared, waking up to gunshots inside her room, dead
“You should have let me kill her!” said Karan angrily as they walked towards the elevator. He could see how hurt Krystal was by what Letta said, and he did not like that one bit. “What good would that have done? She was telling the truth back there. I chose you and I have no right to interfere in Tony’s life.” She said getting angry herself. She did not know if she was angry at Letta for calling her out or that she did not get to hear how Tony is doing.“You were not interfering you just wanted to know how he is doing; he is your friend after all.” Krystal chuckled. She knew that she was nothing to Tony, after their talk the other day, she knew she was not in a position to even call him a friend. She had no place in his life. “Let it be, can we please go home? I have had enough of this country.” Karan could understand how she was feeling.This was supposed to be some vacation for her, a time for her to unwind before the baby arrives. But it turned out to be something completely differ
Tony stayed in the hospital for two weeks before he was ready to travel. Letta was just happy they were taking him home. She was homesick and could see that Tony did not like being there either. Who would? Definitely not a person that almost died there. Even Karan whom they came to rescue here did not come after that day and Letta resented him more.Tony almost died here, and he was here to save him. Yet, when everything was all right with him, he left and did not even check to see if he lived or died. Letta swore that she would kill him if she ever got a chance to. But Tony was only angry that Krystal did not come to see him the whole time he was in the hospital.He knows what he said to her, but he still thought that she cared and that she would come and visit him. But when she did not, he concluded that she wanted nothing to do with him. He never told anyone this and no one told him that Krystal did indeed, come to the hospital. What good would it have done had they told him? She w
It had just rained during the day, and the night was cold. In the streets of J. City Antonio laid by the side of the road, on a cold tar covered with thin cardboard, the jacket he had done nothing to block the cold, he shivered as sleep was far from coming; he was cold and hungry. Both these facts made it difficult for one to fall asleep, after sitting there for hours in a fetal position blowing air on his hands to get them to warn with no success. He stood up and walked around to warm himself up. The streets were quiet at this time of night, only one car would pass occasionally, the street lights in the alleyway he was walking in kept flickering like the bulb was about to meet its end as well. After walking for a few minutes half jogging trying to get his blood running and be a bit warm, he heard a noise up ahead. He slowed down his jogging and tiptoed forward. He poked his head out to see what was going on right around the corner, a black SUV with the plate written
Antonio sat there for a while thinking, he knew that logo very well; it was a logo of the mafia boss’s hotel, Lux; the hotel was one of the most prestigious ones in the city, only rich people can afford to enter there, middle-class people could not afford to spend even a night here and the likes of him could not even walk passed the entrance of the hotel. Yuri the mafia boss’s penthouse was there, and the place was a fortress with state-of-the-art security. He thought of returning the money but the problem was that he could only get as far as across the street from the entrance of the hotel. But then again, he knew what would happen to him should he return the money; he stole from a man no one dared to steal from and he knew what he was capable of. He had seen how his men killed people on the streets and have heard a lot of things about Yuri. So, either way, he was as good as dead. Then he thought of how he has been struggling on the streets for years now, he thought of the
“Where the fuck is my money Jacob?” asked Yuri standing by the window looking out into the night, his right-hand man Jacob and his third went to collect this evening. But something happened along the way and they lost the money including important documents. They had no valid explanation of where the money went or who took it. His second was standing by the door with his head bowed, the walking stick he carries was visibly shaking, he was afraid for his life, no one made such mistakes with Yuri’s money and live till the next day. “Boss we left the car to deal with that man and when we went back the money was gone, we did not see who took it and we asked around but no one saw anything, but I promise we will resume the search in the morning and we will find the money. Someone must have seen or heard something.” Jacob explained to his boss, he still had hope that he will understand, he knew the person Yuri was yet he still had hope that maybe this time, he will give him a chanc
