Meet the Front-Man
Diego ended the call as soon as he was done speaking with Brian, then he quickly put everything in order, starting with the cold body.He laid Viola properly on the bed, then he replaced the cannula in her vein.Next, he adjusted the table he had shifted, then he took a step back to observe quietly.Satisfied by what he saw, he exhaled sharply, then he hurried to the door at once.“Help!” He put on a panicked countenance, storming out of the ward.“Doctor! Nurses! Anyone!” His voice was loud enough to shake the peace in the hospital, accompanied by his heavy footfalls.“She is not breathing!” He pointed behind him, still staggering forward.“Please! Where is the Doctor?”One of the Doctors on duty ran out of his office, holding onto his stethoscope.“Mr. Sanchez! Is everything alright?”“No!” Diego shook his head, then he pointed behind him again.“I was trying to wake her up, then I realized that she was not breathing…”“Oh…” The Doctor took a deep breath, then he started hastening i
Both Guilty
Diego had no choice.But before he made any move, he looked to his right, then to his left.He followed the man at once, keeping his eyes on him as though he was admiring his casual but luxurious outfit.“You know…” The front man slowed, then turned to face Diego.“When I learned that Ambrose was dead, I was not entirely happy. He had his role to play…”Diego had no words to say in response, staring with wide eyes.He knew that the other man wanted him to catch up with him, but his feet had started feeling as though they didn’t belong to him.“But looking at the bright side…” The other man continued, then he took a deep breath.“His absence should give us little or nothing to worry about. The young man is still inexperienced. It would only take a little convincing to get him to join us…”Diego cleared his throat, then he exhaled sharply.“I highly doubt that…” He stated, his voice low and slippery.“Brian is just like his father. Maybe even tougher…”“Is that so?” The other man retort
Only Option
“I am sorry, but I just can’t get myself to take his children, Manfred…” Diego explained, his voice cracked from the start.“Maybe we should look for something else…”“Something like what?” Manfred snapped, scowling at him.Diego searched his mind, but he had no idea what to say.“I don't know…” His voice was barely above a whisper, his eyes wary of the man standing angrily before him.“But I am not going to help you kidnap innocent children, Manfred. It’s too risky…” He looked away, taking a deep breath while he waited to hear what Manfred was going to say.To his surprise, Manfred remained silent and even chuckled softly.Diego slowly lifted his face, his brows arched while he stared at the man before him.He knew it was too early to celebrate, but he was hoping that the consequences of his defiance was not going to be brutal.“Are you really sure you want to see what I am capable of?” Manfred asked, looking Diego straight in the eyes.The Concierge didn’t know when he shook his hea
Past Flames
“That’s not entirely true…” Manfred insisted, taking two steps closer.“Your son was not lost in the ocean, Diego. He is very much alive, and I can prove it to you…” He turned slowly, then he waited for the middle-aged man to arrive.Diego turned to him as well, but there was clearly no sign of admiration.He was furious, reminded of his last encounter with the man already close enough to them.The man had a smile on his face, and Diego felt he was trying to scorn him with his beam.He took a deep breath, then he turned to Manfred with anger still burning in his eyes.“Calm down…” Manfred urged, almost pleading with his gaze on the old man.“Hello, Diego…”Diego groaned as soon as he heard the voice that confirmed he was not seeing a ghost.“I wasn’t expecting to see you here…”“Neither was I…” He retorted at once, shifting his gaze to the middle-aged man with flames of contempt burning in his eyes. The third man turned to Manfred, then he bowed in a very reverential manner.“You ask
Not My Son
At first, Diego didn’t seem prepared to indulge the middle-aged man, but he persisted, holding the white envelope to his face.“Go ahead, Diego. Take it…” Manfred urged calmly, gesturing even with his eyes.Diego glared at him for a while, then he shifted his gaze back to Coleman.His eyes moved to the white envelope, and then he grabbed it like he was certain nothing meaningful was going to come out of it.Coleman folded his arms as soon as the envelope was released from the grip of his fingers, his confident smile still intact.Diego was impatient to see what was inside the envelope.He tore it open, dipped his fingers inside, and dragged out what was inside.“What’s this?” He asked, as though he couldn’t see the picture of the young man.“That’s your son…” Coleman stated, pointing to the picture.“Is this a joke?” Diego turned to the middle-aged man, a dark look on his face.“You pick up a random picture of a young man and say he is my son…”“Take a good look at that picture, Diego
Must Crumble
“Nothing is going to give me more satisfaction than to watch the Regal Dynasty crumble. I want to end whatever greatness they think they have. And now that they have just one strong person, I think this is the right time to strike…”“Exactly…” Coleman pushed closer while he nodded.He turned the picture upside down the moment he sensed that it was distracting the old man.“Listen to me…” He cleared his throat, then continued in a lighter tone.“You are going to help us get those twins of his. That’s going to be his weakness. He will have no other option than to come crawling to us for help. While he is vulnerable, we will drain him until he is nothing…”Diego took a deep breath, but the cringe was still burning inside him.His eyes moved from Coleman to Manfred, and then back to Coleman.“So, you are a part of this plan…”The realization had hit him earlier on, but it seemed like the thought could deal with him if he didn’t voice it out.“You want to get innocent children involved in
No Other Loose Ends
“He…” Diego stuttered, moving his eyes from one man to the other.“He said he thinks that Viola didn’t die of a natural cause…” Just the thought alone made his heart pound loudly, his throat getting drier.“He said he wants to carry out an investigation and find out who killed her…”He waited for someone to speak, but all he could hear was the laughter from the ladies getting out of the pool, followed by their chattering voices and the sound of their wet footfalls.His heart had already sunk deep into his stomach, the strength to breathe no longer found inside him. “The Nanny?” Manfred asked, and he nodded.“I see…” Manfred didn’t seem bothered; he simply turned to Coleman with a clear certainty in his eyes.“Leave that to me…” Coleman stated, a sinister smile on his face.“I think I would have to pay the Doctor a visit…” He said, turning to Diego.“Send me all the necessary details and leave the rest to me…”Diego’s silence lingered, a sense of doubt smeared on his face.“What exact
New Product
“Well, it seems we will be having so much to look forward to, Mr. Regal…”The smile on the man's face appeared to be permanent, but it faded the moment he realized that he wasnt going to get any response soon. He cleared his throat, but that didnt seem to have any impact, causing his visage to almost turn pale. Brian didn’t seem like he was paying attention, even though his gaze was fixed on the middle-aged man seated across the desk.Apparently, he was not only unimpressed by his flashy outfit; even his words, and the voice with which he said them, gave him an irk.Within him, Brian had already resolved not to utter even a single word until he was certain it was the right time to speak.“Mr. Regal?” The man persisted, maintaining his constant gaze on Brian.He was eager to hear from him, fingers fixed between each other while his elbow rested firmly on the high-end office desk.“You have not really said anything since…” He paused, taking a deep breath.“Since I told you about the e
Meet The Team
“I am not worried, Mr. Rostova…” Brian corrected, maintaining his stoic countenance.“I am just concerned; those are two different things…”Patrick nodded, though he didn’t look like he fully agreed.“Concerned… Got it…” He remarked, trying to bridge the gap in the silence.“I own a bulk of the shares in this company. I know that your loss is going to be my loss as well. That’s why I have decided to be directly involved with this project. We are talking about a global product that is going to shake anything similar to it. Our competitors will be kept on their feet by the time we launch this product…”“I definitely agree…” Patrick nodded with excitement and, pleased that Brian was beginning to speak the language he was, he leaned forward at once, placing his two hands on the desk.Shortly after, a knock came at the door, accompanied by the pull of the handle, and a gentle push of the door from the outside.A lady dressed in a neat and appealing outfit walked in at once, carrying a cera
Cold Reception
Everyone stood up the moment Brian and Patrick walked into the room, a majority of them adjusting their outfits.One after the other, they bowed, particularly showing their respect for their Boss.“Everyone…” Patrick stood before them, barely three meters in front of Brian.“This is Mr. Regal. The man we have been hoping to see…” He gestured to Brian, but he didn’t get the expectation he had hoped for.The murmuring that followed the next second made his smile vanish, and a curious expression took over.All the eyes of the six members of the team standing before him had turned to Brian, and the looks on their faces didn’t suggest that they were impressed.Those who were bold enough to whisper began to speak to each other, almost certain that the distance between them was enough to barricade the sound of their voices.“Is this the real Mr. Regal or is this his son?”“Maybe this is his son…”“There is no way this is the billionaire we have been waiting for…”All three of the ladies stan
