Chosen By The System To Play God Chapter One Hundred and One
In the separate room, only four men were present. Federico Rodriguez sat at the other end of the table, facing his new acquaintance, Adrian Blood. On his right side was his son, Ricardo. James Halton stood on the other side."What is it you want to discuss so much, Mr Blood? We were having a nice celebration, you know." Federico Rodriguez broke the long silence, staring straight into Adrian Blood's eyes.The celebration was for Lyana and the ladies who loved to indulge in parties. The men took no part in it, only false pretences when they bore hate in their hearts. Adrian knew this, James Halton always gave him the side eyes, Ricardo Rodriguez was full of fake smiles. Of course, they were only here for a main reason, why not just focus on that point. Adrian Blood looked at the three men. He scanned their faces. He did not expect it to be this easy to gain their acknowledgement. What if they had found out his identity? He needed to know that this was not a trap for him. He needed to c

As soon as Adrian Blood stepped out of the meeting, he started thinking of a hundred ways to complete his mission. To expose the CEO's identity would mean to expose himself. Of course, there was no way he would do that. He still had a lot of things to gain from this secret identity. Besides, he was not going to put Uncle George and his sister, Helena in danger.Speaking of Helena, earlier, when Federico made the request for Adrian to track down Hans Zimmer and Adrian accepted, Adrian also made his own request to the chairman."What is it this time? I already gave you my daughter." Chairman Rodriguez had said."There is a particular boy, one who has offended me a great deal." Adrian had stated.Ricardo Rodriguez had smirked. "What is it? You have all the money in the world now, Adrian. You can't take care of a little boy?""Of course I can, but not when the boy is under the protection of this noble family." Adrian's gaze has shifted upon James Halton, making everyone to turn in the sam

Lyana looked sparkling pretty in her flowing dress. She wore that marvellous smile of happiness as she approached Adrian. "Did the meeting go well?" She asked in concern. Adrian Blood smiled. "Very well." He turned back towards the slightly open door. "What is going on in there?""My stepmother is choosing her new maids. She changes her maids every month." Lyana Rodriguez did not seem happy talking about Melissa Rodriguez. Aristocrats in Ravendale were known for their nature of self superiority, but nobody was as superior as Melissa Rodriguez. She believed that nobody had the right to serve her for more than a month. She thought she was so special. A big suprise how old Julia had managed to remain with her for so long. Although the truth was that old Julia never belonged to Melissa, she belonged to Lyana's mother. Melissa only stole her, just like she stole every other thing that belonged to Lyana's mom."Have I ever asked you, how did your mother die?"The smile of happiness, which

"You lowlife! Get your hands off me!" Melissa Rodriguez demanded in fury."How dare you lay your hands on the chairwoman?!" Lady Murray was screaming in anger."How dare the chairwoman lay her hands on Lyana?" Adrian Blood asked calmly. Then the calm dissolved away. "No one lays a hand on my girlfriend. Ever." He was domineering and strong. His eyes held a cold warning that the chairwoman could not ignore."How... how dare you..." She stuttered. Her voice was running low, less and less firm than it used to be. Adrian Blood possessed an energy of dominance, demonlike in nature. Not anyone could resist that.When he let go, the entire place was as silent as suspense. Lady Murray breathed in exasperation. The maids all looked down in fear, afraid the chairwoman would catch their happy faces. Julia wore suprise and awe, but nothing like resentment. And Lyana was most honoured by this presentation.Finally, the chairwoman got a grip of herself again. She backed away slowly, and all her loy

As soon as Adrian Blood came out to see him, Lucas was walking away, surrounded by some of Rodriguez men. Ricardo Rodriguez was standing in front of him, saying some things to his ears. When he noticed the approach of Adrian Blood, he quickly dismissed Lucas, and the men took him away."What is he doing here?" Adrian asked. "That man attempted to murder me."Ricardo forced a smile. "Relax, Adrian. He will be punished for that. But there are not many men with the talent that Lucas possesses. We need him if we are going to accomplish our mission. After that has been achieved, he will die. I promise." Adrian Blood was not convinced. He still had his doubts. "You are planning something, are you not?" He knew that Ricardo was pretending to like him all along, but he did not expect him to do such a bad job at it."You still do not trust me?" Ricardo seemed hurt. "Yes, I have despised you for many years, but when you saved my sister... when you saved Lyana, the story changed."Ricardo gave

Ricardo Rodriguez was well confident that his plans were going exactly like he intended. Adrian Blood was more foolish than he thought. He was super convinced that the Rodriguez family had accepted him, and he was now working for the family. Soon enough, they will find that hideous CEO and his father would be proud of his achievements. Then there would be no more need for Adrian Blood. There would be no more needs for rats such as him.Then, they would get rid of Adrian Blood with ease. They would get rid of everybody else who had ever stood in his way, most especially Lyana. Their father had shown Ricardo the inner circle. It meant only one thing - he was the chosen child and not Lyana. Soon, all the wealth will pass on to him, and Lyana would be left with nothing for herself. Yet, with all these thoughts of paradise, something still felt off to him. Something still felt bizarre. He had a distant feeling that Adrian Blood might be playing games on him and the entire inner circle.A

Adrian Blood knew what his objectives were. To find Hans Zimmer, he needed to re-visit the very person who introduced him to Mr Zimmer in the first place. Secretary Wallers was astounded to find Adrian Blood in her home again, but she was surprised that he had shown up through a back door. He had shown up unexpectedly."Mr Blood!" As she exclaimed, Adrian held her mouth to prevent the loudness in her voice. He checked to make sure he had totally lost the ones who were secretly following him. Adrian knew of Ricardo's directives to his men. He had noticed them following him since the very moment he became friends with that liar. "Do you have a place we can talk? A secret place where nobody can listen in on us?" Adrian demanded."Sure, I do..." The woman responded, but Adrian Blood shook his head. "A place hidden from even your daughter...?" Adrian recalled the amount of problem which was caused him by Amanda Wallers the other day. Because of her, Ricardo Rodriguez almost found out his

Secretary Wallers was in total dismay. She wailed in pain and begged Adrian.."Please, Mr. CEO, help me. Get my daughter back..." All her hopes were on Adrian. All her strength depended on him. If only he knew a sure way to do that. Adrian Blood was lost in his thoughts. The sight of a mother in pain of a child's loss reminded him of his own mother who died that night, killed by James Halton. He also remembered his real mother, whom he had met by chance already. He couldn't let this happen to Amanda even if she was such a pain in his ass. He had to find her. But even before that, he still had to find Hans Zimmer. The ideas in his head were not adding up properly. It would have all been easy if he got to speak to Amanda, but for some reason, she had vanished into thin air all of a sudden. Why did she vanish? Could it be the same person who took Hans Zimmer? Who was behind these disappearances? "I have to find another way." He said to himself. "I need to find Hans Zimmer no matter w

As the chairman tilted his head to confirm that there was nobody there with them, he was ready to spill the secret. Adrian Blood leaned to those shadows, and he was not sighted even for a moment. Yet the chairman decided to speak in whispers."Hey, system. I need to use my vital points. Enhanced hearing!" Adrian Blood chose at once, and the system quickly obeyed. The whispers became loud in his ears, and he heard every single word clearly."Your mother was not the only one who cheated." Federico told his son the truth. He needed not to explain in higher terms, no did he needed to narrate the entire history before the understanding could reach Ricardo's mind.Many years ago, young Federico Rodriguez had had to marry Evelyn for the annexation of her family's wealth. At that time, the Rodriguez family had only less than a tenth of their current wealth. With Evelyn's family company Holdings, the Rodriguez company would skyrocket into the skies. The marriage was quick and blessed by both f

Following the faint memories in his head, Adrian Blood found the paths that led downstairs. The way was unfamiliar, and the system helped him very little. Then he was about to give up when he heard their voices, father and son. After that came their footsteps, edging towards his direction from the right side.Adrian Blood quickly lodged himself away from their path. He leaned against the wall as Federico Rodriguez and Ricardo passed slowly, almost in silence now. That was until Ricardo broke the silence again. "So you are not angry at me?" He asked his father, who was in front. The chairman walked slowly and calmly, even though by the gait of his advance, one could tell how much of a hurry he actually was. He wanted to meet this Hans Zimmer as soon as possible. He had a lot of questions that he needed to ask him. He did not expect that Ricardo would be the one to burden him with questions along the way. Yet he still found the need to give him an answer."No, Ricardo. You are not the

When Ricardo Rodriguez and Federico Rodriguez were ironing out that issue, Adrian Blood was busy kissing their sister and daughter in all the right places, yet he was privy to everything they discussed. Every word they said, every statement they made."CEO BLOOD, THE RECORDING WILL NOT CONTINUE ONCE THE CHAIRMAN LEAVES THE ROOM WITH HIS SON..." The system informed Adrian as soon as Federico and Ricardo walked towards the door and were ready to leave the room.Adrian did not feel a loss at that point. He had been able to get a little from their little conversation. Now he knew that Ricardo Rodriguez was the one who captured Hans Zimmer after all. He also knew where the poor man was being held now, he knew where to look for him.If Hans Zimmer was abducted by Ricardo Rodriguez, did that mean that Amanda Wallers was also in that basement? Adrian needed to find out. He needed to follow the chairman and his son secretly, he needed to see the basement for himself. But he was stuck with Lya

"You are wrong, father. I did not take Hans Zimmer just to gain your honour." Ricardo said, cutting the chairman off his inferences and conclusions. "I did not kidnap him to gain your recognition."The chairman stared back into his son's eyes. "Then why?" He asked with his low voice, hard and thick.Ricardo attempted to say something, but then he held his tongue and remained silent. He could not say the truth. "I can't." He muttered.Where was he going to start from. How he grew so jealous of his sister that he decided to murder her? How he realized that he was no match for Lyana's genius so he attempted to kill her not once, not twice and not even thrice? He just could not do it.Meanwhile, Federico's suspicions only grew deeper with his reluctance. Maybe Adrian Blood was right after all. Ricardo had devilish plans towards his own father. Why else would he keep it a secret? Why else would he be unable to tell him what was on his mind? Why else would the question be so difficult to an

Chairman Rodriguez returned to his seat with the walking gait of a general in the military. He took his seat calmly and watched as Ricardo entered slowly and closed the door."What is this about, Father?"The chairman, instead of saying an answer to him, pointed to the empty seat in front of him. Ricardo sighed, still full of fury as he approached the chair and dropped on it. Federico Rodriguez leaned forward, placing his hands on the table between them."There are some questions I have to ask you, son." He started slowly but surely.Ricardo quickly spoke back. "There are some questions I have for you too, father. And I would like to go first."The chairman did not have the time to respond as his son continued."Is it true that you let mother die because you were busy having sex with that woman?""That woman is your stepmother." Federico Rodriguez corrected him at once. He was well sad at the fact that his children were now aware of what he thought was his secret, but he would not acc

Ann, the new maid, was returning from the washroom. She had just escaped the close call with the old woman, Julia, who found her out as the one who had tried to poison the chairman. Ann had spent several months preparing for that murder. She had learnt about many ways to kill an aristocrat who had wealth and plenty. The only possible way she could settle with was poisoning.Yet no poison would kill a rich man with so much easy. They had enormous funds for urgent medical care, and they had all the facilities to revive themselves. Thus, she had to find that poison that kills in the fastest way possible. The water-blood poison was the best thing she could find. She spent several days leaning about this deadly thing. How to get it, a very rare thing to find. How to handle it, a very volatile thing to hold. How to use it, a very dangerous thing in the wrong hands. She had learnt all this, and she had prepared herself all because of one man, all because of Federico Rodriguez. The man who d

Adrian Blood followed Lyana Rodriguez as she stormed on forward. He grabbed her arm before she could go any further."I have always thought that when my mother died, father was trying all his best to get back to us..." He could not see her face as she stood with her back in his sight, but he could hear the cry in her voice. She sobbed silently, betrayed and destroyed. "I thought that he was racing really quickly. He was panting really hard, hoping to get home on time. Hoping to be there to save his wife..." Of course, by the secret revealed tonight, he was panting really hard. Just not in the way that she would have hoped."I thought that when he arrived and he met her cold body, his entire world was crushing in front of his eyes. I thought he was so pained and so heartbroken that I could see it in his eyes."Adrian Blood did not know how, but the scenery played in front of his eyes. As he continued to hold Lyana Rodriguez, it was as if her memories were shunted into his, and he coul

"When your bitch mother was dying on that sick bed, Fede was right beneath me. He kept stroking as your mother kept calling. The sex was just too sweet, we did not need any interuption. And when he finally attempted to respond to the call, I reached for the phone first and threw it in the bin. Then I fucked your father like it was his last day on this earth!"Lyana listened quietly, in her heart was a burning flame. She was about to lose it. She was about to go crazy."Your father had already grown tired of your sickly mother. He never wanted to marry her. He only decided to settle for less because of the benefits of business. Every time he abandoned you and your mother, guess who he comes to for refuge. Me! He comes crawling back to me!""You..." There were tears in her eyes, but she would not allow them to peep. Her voice crackled, but she would not allow it to break. She would not allow Melissa to see this weak part of her. She would not allow that monster to know how much pained s

Jon laughed. "Did you really think you could get my formular? It took me years to come up with it, and you wanna do what? Pull it off in a month?""Ricardo says there is no time. He is threatening my family if I don't complete this on time. Now that you are here, you can as well help me." Richard Lewis said. Maybe this was not so bad after all. Maybe Jon Lewis's presence was a good thing. He was going to help me complete his mission, just like old times."No, no, little brother. You are always forgetting. This is not ten years ago. This is a different time. I am not here to help you get out of your mess. I am here for my own ambition."Many years ago, Jon Lewis was a genius who worked for everybody else except himself. His brother had introduced him to Federico Rodriguez, the man whom their father worked for. But Jon was not interested in the family career. He was interested in something else. Something more."What happened to you, Jon?" Lewis asked. "Where have you been all these yea
