51: Leftover business
Amelia's hand shook with tremor. “How did you know where I am?”The voice sighed. “You really think you can hide from me forever?” “Well, if you don't stop reaching out to me, I will report you to the police,” she threatened even though she felt different inside. It felt like her inside was turning.She knew better than threatening someone like Daemon anyways. Who threatens a mafia Lord? Especially one that had connections everywhere. She had done it before and she still remembers where that got her. It was useless.Wasn't that why she came here?“Oh, I won't,” he assured on a light note. “But I just want you to see something,” his voice suddenly went deeper. “Come to the auction house by 3rd of January. There's something I want to show you or something I would like you to see,” he laughed and the line went off instantly.“Daemon!” Amelia called after, with frustration. She stared into nothing, her thoughts clouded as she thought about what Daemon could possibly want her to see. And
52: The Invite
“He would try to kill you,” Noah added.Zack froze, a chill creeping up his spine. “Why? Why would Jay want to kill me! He cares for William and I'm basically the only one William has.”“Well, you will find out soon enough.”Zack started to shake his head. “That's a lie. Jay will never do anything to hurt William. Killing me is killing William. I am the only friend he has and he has always protected us all these years. Why would that stop now?”“Beacuse everything has an expiry date. And now, it's your turn,” Noah explained.Zack's eyes thinned on him. “And why should I believe all you've been saying? How do I know you are not the one trying to kill me?”Noah laughed. It was short and deep. “You are tough alright but not as wise as I thought you would be. If I wanted you dead, then you would already be dead."Zack huffed. “And what if it's William you want. I'm the only one that knows what William looks like.”Noah stared away, into nothingness for a moment. “You are right. I need you
53: Looking for help
“What did you do?” Brandon yelled as he paced back and forth. He was in Oliver's living room.He stopped suddenly and turned to look at him. “You know it is bad for you if Cedric gets angry.”Oliver went still as he tried to think about it. He still couldn't get his head off of how Cedric had reacted to him at the party. He was worried about his company. How was he supposed to save it? Cedric was his last option.“It's not like I did anything to Jennifer directly alright but I was banned from going to the casino.”Brandon hit his hand against his left palm angrily. “Well, find something to do about it. If you can't fix the rift between you two then don't bother getting through to me because I won't allow you to come between Cedric and me!” he finished angrily, in a voice that left no room for more argument before he walked out.Oliver stared, shocked. What has he done?He dropped into the chair as beads of perspiration tickled down his head. What was he supposed to do? And now, even
54: Losers go home
Zack went through the message Jay had sent him before pocketing the phone and walking inside. He didn't look back at Cedric; hopefully, he was right behind him. But most importantly, he didn't want to give himself up.This has to look as real as possible. If Jay could hurt him, then it meant only one thing: he could hurt William as well.He was a bit worried though. If Cedric was telling the truth, then Jay must have been planning to eliminate William. The thought of it made him sick in his stomach. He was not going to forgive Jay if that was the case.He stepped inside the almost-filled bar and a slight headache set in. He held onto his temples for a moment in a bid to relieve the pain.His phone beeped suddenly, intensifying the pain. He waited, pressing even harder as if that would instantly make the pain disappear. It didn't but it was a nice way to start.He fished it out of his pocket. It was from Jay and it was only two words.‘Look up!’”Zack did as instructed and there he was
55: Assignment
Mike, Zack, and Noah ran after him but he was already on the floor, and unconscious under Jennifer's feet.Jennifer looked up at them. “This one tried to escape, didn't it?”“And you killed him?” Noah dragged with humor.Jennifer laughed. “No, he will survive. He's just going to be missing three teeth for the rest of his life.”It was Noah’s turn to laugh.Mike looked at Jennifer, then at Noah, as if he were in a trance.“When did you two get so close?" The only time he remembered them together was when Jennifer defended him so he wouldn't fall into the trap they had laid for her. So, how did they get so close that they could throw jokes at each other? Besides, Jennifer was always a distant person who didn't talk to anyone unless there was a strong reason to.“Maybe because he's Cedric,” Zack said suddenly.The atmosphere thickened instantly.“Wait, he's what?” Mike was the first to ask. “What did you just call him?”Noah pushed his hands into his back pocket and looked at Zack with
56: Lies, now the truth
Back at home, Amelia couldn't stop thinking about the whole phone call from earlier. She knew how dangerous it was for her to stay but she didn't know what to do.She felt lost and scared. Casington was the last place she thought Daemon would be and it was in fact the last place she had to go. She was cornered now and there was no place to run to.She cupped her face in her palm for a moment as she thought about it. All hope seemed lost actually. And she knew that whatever Daemon had to show her on the auction day wouldn't be good at all. Now, she was skeptical about going. It wouldn't hurt her if she didn't know what it was, right?“Amelia?” A voice quelled, pulling her out of her thoughts.Amelia forced a smile to her face and looked up at Aria. “You are unexpectedly late today.”Aria dropped to the bed, with a tired expression on her face. “Today was very hectic, thanks to you,” her expression transformed instantly, a smile replacing the initial frown on her face. “We were able t
57: A player from the Enemy
“What! You lied to me?” Aria asked, disbelief in her voice.Amelia looked at her, guilt eating her deep. “I didn't mean to. I_”“Oh please!” Aria snapped at her angrily. “How can you lie to me? You know everything about me but instead, you keep secrets from me?” Aria stood up and without another word, walked towards the door, “I'm out of here.”“Aria, please,” Amelia called after her but she was already walking out of the room.Everyone stared at each other for a moment, unsure of what to say next.“I'm sorry!” Amelia burst out before she hurried after Aria.Noah sighed. He almost gave his identity away by helping Amelia and thinking he was doing her good. He'd better stay away from her from now on because on a normal day, there was no reason for Cedric to take an interest in her.His phone rang suddenly, breaking the silence that had descended around them.Noah stared down at the screen. It was Harrison. He stood up and moved to the side to answer it.“Hello?”“Boss, I have some deta
58: Finding the Mole
Harrison pushed a photo to Noah as he said this.Noah took the picture and regarded the man in it for a moment. “Any details on him?”“Yes!” Harrison said excitedly. “Daemon is a mafia Lord in Orangeville but Orangeville is like a town where Casington is.”Casington is the capital after all. It was bigger.“So, it wasn't even Leonardo that played and won the game by himself? Why then is he holding the gambling Lord title?”Harrison shrugged slightly. “I have no idea but that's how the game works. It doesn't matter who plays as long as they are registered under an entity. Just as several of our elders decided to play for Il Fuoco Empire, if we had won, Il Fuoco would still be the gambling Lord,” he explained.Noah nodded several times. The explanation was feasible enough.The door opened suddenly and the waitress walked back inside.“Your Domaine De la Romanee conti burgundy ,” She tilted the bottle slightly, giving them a clear view of the wine. She set the cakes down first and with c
59: Accident at the reunion
At exactly 7 o'clock, his phone beeped. It was a broadcast message, reminding him that it was time for the reunion party.Noah remembered and, in fact, was driving towards the venue.After Harrison had left, Noah did a little research on Daemon. Daemon was ruthless and currently ranked in the top 5 among the businessmen in Orangeville. He had a lot of resources alright and he also had Leonardo backing him to do whatever he so wished.Online, Daemon had some disputes with some CEOs and they ended up being pushed down. Some left the city while some merely stayed as if they were never there. That was what power could do to someone.So, Daemon was like Leonardo but in a different state. If it wasn't for the Il fuoco establishment, which Jay almost pulled down as well, Leonardo would have been the one controlling the whole of Casington too. Also, according to the details that Harrison provided, Daemon was the same age as him. He was too young to control so many mafia lords, too young to b
60: Limited edition
Everyone stared, shocked.Rose lowered her bat, breathing hard. She smiled like she had done something enormous. Then, she turned to Tiffany. “Come, join me.”“Ma'am!” The guard froze. “You need to stop!”Ignoring the guard, Tiffany removed one of her stilettos and smashed the side mirror with its pointed side.“That is,” Rose started, turning towards Noah. “_what being stubborn is.”Tiffany laughed. “Relax, we will pay for it.”“Yeah,” Rose added. “Don't start crying now. How much could it possibly be?”Noah smiled softly. “Do you know the value of the car? Let alone the windshield you have broken?”“Of course,” Rose rolled her eyes. “Maybe at most $30,000,” she said with disdain. “Isn't it just Mercedes? It's something I can afford, so don't fret. I will pay for it,” she uttered, tossed the bat aside, and moved to grab her purse.She pulled out a card from inside it and stretched it out. “There's a sum of $30,000 in the card. Use it. I'm sure it's more than enough, the remaining mon
