Khleassandra's Point of View: "Calm down, Allison. Just let Clifford do what he wants. In the first place, there's nothing you can do but just let them both go," Seven said to Allison while we were outside the head quarters. "I'm calm. I'm just annoyed because that Nishane has too much attitude! Who does she think she is if she can have attitude?" "You are just the same," The8 whispered.Allison glared at The8. Even though we all heard what he said. "Shut up, The8!" The8 raised his two hands as if he were about to give up. "Chill, Allison." I couldn't stop laughing because I knew he was scared too. Who wouldn't be afraid of Allison? Just now, we were surprised when she suddenly raised her gun, just because Nishane responded by raising an eyebrow. "It's better that we go to our rooms so we can rest," Seven told us, looking at Allison. "Calm down, huh? Just think about Clifford." "I'm really thinking about him, and I don't care about his wife," Allison said and started walking in
Nishane's Point of View I SOUGHT to forget about my mother as soon as I made the decision to move on with my life. I'm still hurt, not because I'm angry with her. I made the decision then to stop thinking about her in order to stop being so heartbroken. I choose to put an end to considering her justifications. Even though I am holding Clifford's arm, I have quit wondering what I'm worth and will keep trying to find peace of mind.I came to terms with the idea that I could not return to the life I had before and began living it as the wife of the richest CEO in the whole world. My adolescent years are finally over. I must make way for a mature and serious one.I've also spoken with the Aces. And to this day, Allison continues to irritate me. Since that was the first time I met her, I'm still baffled as to why she was so upset with me. I don't understand why she is so angry with me. Why does she despise me so much? Did I ever do her something that I don't recall doing?Or...Possib
Khlea's Point of View The four of us, Allison, Seven, and The8, were quiet as we headed to the black market, where we were going to meet another client. The transaction we will do today is big because Mr. Tuazon is a VVIP. The one who used to negotiate with him was Clifford, but now our friend is too busy with his wife. "This isn't the first time we'll transact here with Mr. Tuazon, but I'm nervous now," I whispered. I heard The8 laugh softly, so I turned to him. "I can't believe you're a coward to that old man." "I'm not a coward. I'm just nervous for some reason I can't explain, but I'm not a coward! Duh!" I made him suffer. What my friend said is offensive. I crossed my arms across my chest. Out of the corner of my eyes, I saw Seven, who was driving, shake his head. Allison was just quietly looking out the window. Doesn't seem to care what we're talking about. I just sighed and focused my attention outside the window as well. "It seems like it would be nice to go to the Mal
Nishane's Point of View "GO AHEAD. Eat more," I said and placed a ladle of dishes on him. When I did that, I inhaled deeply. It's something I don't typically do. I detest how awkward I am behaving.Several days have passed and we are, once more, here in the dining area. I cooked for him again since I wanted to ask for something. I didn't have the chance to tell him last time because Aces needed him that time. So I want to try my luck again. Hoping that he'll give it.Despite my anxiety, I want to tell him something. I say this because I'm uncertain if he will grant my request. He may or may not like it, I'm not sure. For me, it won't be a huge problem even though this will be the first time I've asked him for a favor. Because he begged for my presence in his life, it is the least he can do.Still, I'm at a loss for words. Something kept me from speaking, even though I wanted to. I'm sure I'll insist nonetheless, though. I really don't want our misunderstanding to stem from this.C
Nishane's Point of View I DIDN'T wait too long, Clifford immediately complied with my request tonight. He canceled his meetings for tomorrow. I was ashamed because he did that for me but he said I shouldn't be ashamed because he wants to accompany me in all my walks, not because he will watch over me but because he wants to ensure my safety. Something I understand because I never forget what kind of person he is. He is not an ordinary person. He has many enemies because apart from the CEO, he is a Mafia Lord.In fact, I am thankful because Clifford is with me now. I'm nervous. This is not the first time I go to the place where my suspected father is because in my long search for him, I have been to many places. Even outside the country. I'm nervous because I might fail again. I was nervous that he might not be the father I was looking for. I have failed to find him several times but every time I get information from him, I can't help but hope.I am longing for him.Clifford and
Khlea's Point of View"Are you okay?" Allison asked me after the private doctor who looked at me left. Here they took me to our private hospital, where only we can be patients.I nodded in response. "Yes. I wasn't fooled. It's a good thing my reflexes are fast." I took a deep breath while looking at Allison.She was just looking at my bandaged arm. "Mr. Tuazon's behavior is very bad. Even if we don't investigate it, we immediately know that Mr. Tuazon is the mastermind of the ambush that happened to us.""Does Clifford know what happened to me?""Yes, I told him.""I am sure he has gone so mad.""You know him. He doesn't want anything bad to happen to his Aces." Allison crossed her arms across her chest. "Don't join our schedules for the next few days.""What? No way. I can't not be with you. My wound is only shallow and it won't affect my skills, Allison." I don't feel any pain now.I don't have any more wounds now than the ones I received in the first ambushes that happened to us.S
Nishane's Point of View AS EXPEXTED, Clifford and I did not go in the direction indicated by the information I gathered about my suspected father. We immediately went to the private hospital just inside the executive village owned by my husband which is close to their headquarters.Our trip was not easy and I feel tired all over my body but I have no right to complain because I understand the situation."Where's Khleassandra?" Clifford asked Allison when we arrived. We were just in the hallway and it was just the three of us.Even before we got here, Clifford explained to me why they have their own hospital in their village. And I can't help but be amazed at their status. All the staff, nurses and doctors are members of their mafia. Some of them preferred to study medicine and others lived to study medicine forcefully for their mafia.Studying medicine for them is free and the mafia leader will cover all the expenses for their studies, in return they have to be smart and live to
Khleassandra's Point of View When Allison got back inside my private room, Seven and The8 were already with her. My friends' faces are serious. I put down the cell phone; that was my pastime. 'Hey, what's up?" I greeted them. "We already know who is the mastermind behind ambushing us." "It's Mr. Tuazon, right?" I asked. Even if they don't say it, I know that the old man is really the one with the plan. I clenched my fists. "Anyway, it's really dirty to negotiate with that old man!" I just took a deep breath. "What if we just kill him to reduce the number of people like him in the world?" "You know we can't kill him... right now." Seven stood elegantly while looking at me seriously. "Don't worry. Clifford already talked to Allison and we know what to do." "What? You're just going to let what that old man did to us? Look at my arm!" "Khlea, calm down. Of course we will not allow Mr. Tuazon to miss what he did to you. Let the plan be fixed so we don't get in trouble. You know abou
