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
Nishane's Point of View "ARE YOU alright and ready?"As soon as I heard Clifford ask, I inhaled deeply. Sincerably, I was very anxious. As his wife, I will be visiting his workplace for the first time today to assist him with those matters. Our relationship has been widely reported on social media, even if I haven't yet verified it.I've been contacted by news outlets multiple times for interviews, but I purposely decline. It doesn't seem appropriate for me to confirm everything at this moment. I still need to change something, and I won't do it right now.The only option left for my supporters is to snoop around me. Clifford hides me so effectively, though, that they can't really follow me. Even so, everytime I walk outside, I ask his security to watch over me.I can go out alone, and Clifford permits me to do so. Without him, I'm free to go. His bodyguards are still with me, though. I cannot leave without his bodyguards, so he forbids it.Clifford only permitted my personal ass
Nishane's Point of View I had a terrible first day. Despite not having done anything strenuous, I feel really exhausted. I avoided lifting anything heavy. Throughout the day, I didn't use any energy on completing my chores. However, my mind is drained. It was very taxing. When I went home, I hardly spoke at all. I'm too exhausted to talk.Clifford just let me feel that, which is unpleasant. He didn't even look at me once the entire time I was working. He turned me over to the team manager and the heads. He never even said hello to me.I had numerous conversations with managers about the company's operations. Who founded it and how it got its start. How the company is run and what will lead to its failure. All of that I discovered in a single day. But when I arrived at the estate that day, I had forgotten everything. One of my talents is that. All the information I need to remember is simple for me to memorize, but it's also simple for me to forget it.Clifford irritated me so
Khlea’s Point of ViewMy arm is fine since it's been a few days. I was just in my unit watching a movie. The other Aces are also not letting me join their schedules these past few days. I'm bored, but I can't disobey Clifford's orders.I just looked at my cell phone when I saw the number from Head Quarters calling me. I immediately took it and answered."Hello?" I answer the call.I was even surprised when I wasn't the only one on the call. The8 and Allison were also there. Seven called."Come now to the Head Quarters. We have an emergency meeting," said Seven."About?" Allison asked.I don't move because I know that this call is really important. I just listened and waited for what Seven would say."Just come here." That's it, and the call is over.I don't know if I should act or let them alone. But if I'm not included in the meeting, why am I also included in the call? I took a deep breath and got dressed quickly. The wound from the gunshot wound in the previous encounter against th
Nishane's Point of View "WHAT on earth am I doing here and who the fuck are you?!"The second time, I experienced the dread of those who struggled with communication and need me to talk directly to them. They could just say it if they had something to say. Why the necessity to abduct me? Clifford was the first person to do this to me, so I remembered how terrified I was when he did the same thing.I'm rather certain, though, that it was not his intention. Furthermore, Clifford's security is not present in my immediate surroundings. I'm not secure here. They do not harm me, despite the fact that I feel insecure in this location. In a mansion's living room, I was only seated on a plush sofa. This house is not Clifford's, I am certain of that. What purpose would he have if he kidnapped me? Each and every day, I was with him. No cause would exist for him to kidnap me.I'm not being kidnapped by anyone right now, not here. I am aware that they are merely subordinates who will only do
Khlea’s Point of ViewGunshots were so loud that they could be heard all over the place where we were. After Clifford got his wife, Nishane, we immediately started exchanging gunfire against Mr. Tuazon's men, I am even more annoyed of that old man because of what he did.I could hide behind a wall while I tightly held my two guns, which were my favorites. I have spare bullets tucked into the garter under my leather skirt. I feel annoyed that I am the only one who is always the target of Mr. Tuazon's staff.I was even surprised when someone came to my side and was hiding. It was Allison who looked at me."Are you okay?" I asked."Of course. What about you? Maybe later you will go home with gunshot."I frowned at her. Sometimes I really don't understand if Allison is really my friend or what. Because she often looks up to me about things.Before answering, I peeked and shot in the direction where the bullets were coming from earlier. When I was tired, I returned to our place. "I won't g
Nishane's Point of View WHEN I woke up, it felt like my head was whirling. It aches. I was blinded by the brightness streaming from the lamp on the side table when I first opened my eyes. I stood up gradually since I needed to hydrate. My throat is extremely parched. Although my entire body does not hurt, I feel frail. I was able to sense the heat of my breath, so I placed the back of my hand to my neck to check for a temperature. And I wasn't mistaken.That explains why I'm queasy and finding it difficult to stand up."Do you call for anything?"A recognizable voice caught off guard from beside me. From Clifford, that is. I was overcome with fear as soon as I saw his face. I could clearly recall what had occurred. I can recall being in a taxi when my fear first appeared. I can recall every detail.When I noticed the concerns in his eyes, I shuddered. I don't want to believe it even if it seems true. He was to blame for it. It's his fault! It is!He's responsible for what happened
Khlea’s Point of ViewThe man I made slept earlier gave me a grim look. My friends and I were even surprised to see that Mr. Tuazon’s butler was left behind while holding the neck that I hit earlier. The8 and Seven hurriedly grabbed him to prevent it from escaping.When we brought him to a room here at headquarters and immediately made him sit on a metal chair. It's an electric chair. We actually reserved that kind of chair to be used when there are occasions like this.I took a deep breath and looked at my companions. We all stood in front of the man, who was still grinning as he looked at the four of us. He sweats and has a wound on the side of the lip. But we can still read his anger towards us on his face, but we don't care about him.I mumbled then shook my head.Seven acted. From crossing his arms across his chest, he slowly stepped closer to the table in front of the butler. Seven rested his hands on the table and bowed slightly."Now, tell us that Mr. Tuazon who was behind th
