He counted the zeroes several times to be sure he was seeing the correct thing. Three hundred million like that just dropped in his account.
This is a dream come true, it's a bit of a disappointment to his man ego that this amount didn't come from him purely working for it. But to hell with man's ego, all he cared about right now was saving his mother.He shot to his feet."I will go to get my marriage permit first since it is on the way to the hospital."He couldn't explain where the new surge of energy he felt came from. He just stormed off in his ruined old suit.Getting the marriage permit wasn't a big deal. He just had to sign some papers and take some portrait photos, update his register, and since it was urgent, the permit was issued as fast as they could. Their customer service was actually wonderful, Reynold attributed it to the fact that they were government workers, for a minute he thought that maybe his life would have been different if he had been a government worker too.But he dismissed the thought as soon as it came.'Let's just relish this moment for now'He stormed off again and to the hospital this time.As soon as he entered the hospital, he made his way to the doctor who was in charge of his mother."Sir!"He was just stepping out of an operating room and was met by a ninety-degree bow from Reynold.He greeted the other doctors and stopped in front of Reynold."If you are here to come and beg me to treat your mother you will pay later. I will tell you again Rey, it doesn't work like that. Your mother doesn't even have an insurance.""I'm here to pay the money, sir!"He yelled.A surprised expression came out of the man's wrinkled yet calmly handsome face."Are you serious? You have the money?"He asked rhetorically."Yes sir! It was like a miracle and is a long story but I have the whole two hundred and fifty million that you calculated for the full treatment even if she has to be taken out of the country."He made clear with a vibrant joy evident in his tone.The man stared down at him for a few minutes,'I probably should not downplay the integrity of such a hard-working man by asking where he got it. I can ascertain that he is a very hard-working man'He sighed and smiled."I'm happy for you Rey. I will commence with your mother's treatment immediately.""Thank you, sir!"As he bowed again a pearl of tears escaped his eyes. He was very happy.Rey and the doctor together walked to his mother's room where his sister had been nesting for the past few days.She had even had to give up on school because she wanted to take care of their mother and since she understood that Rey was not earning enough she wanted to help save his money in any way possible."Be joyful Tia. Your mother will be commencing her treatment on a full scale."Tia's eyes went round."What?! Really?! Thank you so much, doctor! Thank you so much!" Tears settled in her eyes as she bowed over and over again to the doctor."It's not me you should thank." The doctor said touching her shoulders, he looked at Reynold with a smile, "It is your hardworking brother you should be very thankful for.""I see... huh? Brother?!! You got the raise?!"Reynold scratched the back of his head shyly, he did talk to her about asking his boss for a raise."No, not that. I will explain to you later." He patted her head and turned to the doctor who walked him out and began to explain the processes of the treatment. Not that he understood, he just nodded to everything the man said but it was so interesting to hear.Finally, his mother would be getting her treatment.Ring ring.His phone rang. A frown came upon Reynold's face as he saw the caller."Is everything thing okay?" The doctor asked."Everything is fine, it's just my girlfriend... or should I say ex.""Ah, that young woman." The doctor replied with relief. Even though he couldn't ask, he thoroughly wished Reynold wasn't into anything shady and looked out for signs that pointed to the opposite."Please excuse me, sir."Reynold withdrew himself from the doctor just as they were about to enter his office. He picked up the call as he walked along the hall to the lobby."Yes?""What is it with your tone? What do you mean yes?" She replied.Reynold had thought she was going to begin to beg or something but she didn't look like she had called to beg, she still had that prideful, arrogant tone in her voice."Anyway, I don't care what is wrong with you. I need about $5000 from you."Reynold squinted his eyes as a fire of rage consumed him from within."Are you serious right now? Are you in your right senses? Do you realize I just caught you cheating? I just fucking caught you cheating?!” He yelled at the phone and began to pant, he was so angry at her, more angry at himself that he fully devoted himself to someone like this."My mother has been sick in the hospital. I can count the number of times you have been here on one finger. But I never complained right? I just tried to be understanding because you despised the smell of hospital bleaches. You are a self-conceited bitch who only cares about herself. I find it very daring of you that you think you can still collect money from me after cheating on me with my boss."He hung the call not giving her a second to reply to him.Then he walked outside to release all his anger into the air. Unfortunately, she was actually outside the hospital about to step inside.Reynold stood a few meters across her. Gritting his teeth.'Really? This bitch'"You think I'm just going to let you go? What about the times when I have stood by you? Who's going to compensate me for all of those times.”"I don't care. Why don't you go and fuck my boss and ask him for five hundred dollars."Reynold strolled past her. His shoulder slightly brushed past her but she fell to the ground and began to cry.

CHAPTER HUNDRED & FIFTY FOUR
One life ends. Another begins. Such was the world.That was what Rey was thinking as he fondled his ten-month-old baby girl distractedly. He still felt empathy toward Hamish, even though it irritated him. Hamish was his brother-in-law. He shouldn't try to kill him. Nobody's brother-in-law should try to kill him. But unfortunately, that was life. Things happened even when they were absurd, even when they where undesirable.They had charged Hamish and his aide, Sparks, with manslaughter, attempted murder, conspiracy to commit murder. Whenever Reynolds thought about it, he shook his head. It was bad. If either of the two men received a light sentence, it would be life. That was what Hamish got for throwing his life away. On the other hand, the world had not skipped a beat. The three of them had recovered fully (at least physically) himself, Kayla, and the Chairman. The Chairman was no longer a 'Chairman,' corporately, legally, and technically. To Reynolds he was now only a father in-
CHAPTER HUNDRED & FIFTY THREE
Sparks was looking for that one lucky strike.He had tailed Hamish, parked far from sight, approached the building on foot, scaled the fence and come in unnoticed. All according to plan. He knew Hamish was with Reynolds already, and they had been speaking for a few minutes. Hopefully, the stage was well set for his arrival.He went round the building, loathing that he had to use the stairs instead of the elevator. His job always sucked and he hated it.The building was generally deserted as planned. Yes... perfect. At the bottom of the stairs he paused, said a lucky prayer, then set the timer on his watch. Ten minutes for everything... Godspeed.****Hamish and the Chairman stared at each other in bewilderment for seconds."I heard you son. Everything you said," his father told him. For a moment Hamish's mind was blank as he stood transfixed, still holding Reynolds at gun point. Slowly he collected himself, becoming even angrier."I'm not upset at you. Only disappointed. But I don't
CHAPTER HUNDRED & FIFTY TWO
If there could be any reason to spare Sparks life and dispose of him, it was the fact that he had an instinct. He hadn't been a henchman these years for nothing. He knew a trap when he saw one. So, when he phoned the doctor requesting to have the package ready by noon, he became aware that he was not speaking to him.Well, technically, he was. But situationally, he wasn't. The doctor was damaged goods now. He sensed that the guy was bugged.How it happened, he had no idea. But it happened real fast.He phoned Hamish and told him. They'd have to take care of the guy, but not too soon, so they don't throw off a scent. It was a tricky situation for the tricky-minded. The better move now, Hamish told him, was to go directly for Reynolds.There were reasons for this. Beforehand, he had noticed that Kayla had vanished from the hospital ward where she was being treated. Of course, he didn't ask questions or raise suspicions (since the hospital staff couldn't link him to Kayla). But Hamish
CHAPTER HUNDRED & FIFTY ONE
There was one more person to put away when the scheme was done with. That doctor.As much as Hamish hated to deal with it, another clumsy character on the scene meant another loose end. He was going to go all out till he got his package... and till it worked. They he'd pay the man in full before making him disappear.Of course basic logic would question his choice of paying first. He just thought it necessary to stick to one's part of a deal no matter what. So he'd pay the man's family for his service, then kill him. He knew he'd needed a new aide for that job, since Sparks would have to go, too. Either in the process or after the process.In fact, he had started to feel a sense of urgency to do away with Sparks before something spilled. The man was already becoming disgruntled. He was already becoming too important. Nobody became too important with Hamish.But first Sparks needed to get the dirty work done, before he eliminated and dissociated him.****When Benny launched himself
CHAPTER HUNDRED & FIFTY
Doctor Benny liked the concept of a bright future. He had always liked it and other terms like it. Future. Success. Opportunity. Yes, that one. Opportunity. There wasn't very much of it for him in his profession. He wasn't poor or anything—of course he had stuff to be grateful for. But he sensed it could be more. So he tried to get more.Wen he had got the call from Hamish's aide to get a lethal solution ready, he, as any rational person, did not like it. But what choice did he have? His wife was a compulsive shopper and his children sometimes forgot he wasn't a billionaire. So he asked himself what he had to lose and the answer was not much. He didn't know if he had a strong or weak conscience. He only knew he could use the money they were offering. He took the offer. He had hoped it would be a one-off thing. Prepare the solution, have it delivered, get his money, forget any of it ever happened. Now it was staring him on the face. That was the problem with crime. It made for str
CHAPTER HUNDRED & FORTY NINE
Impatiently, the Chairman waited for Rey to arrive. More than clarity, he needed to prove to his son-in-law—and himself—that he was mistaken. If they hadn't been from Rey, he would have paid the messages no heed. He found it rather confusing under the given circumstances. He waited in his topfloor office in the conglomerate that morning, when he should have been busy with other concerns. Reynolds needed to explain. It was not that the strings had no connection whatsoever. No, the Chairman wasn't imprudent. It was the way they connected. And the who they connected to. Those were the things he could not accept. At least, not without hard, infallible proof.His desk phone beeped and he picked it up. It was Rezei, asking if he wanted to see Reynolds."Yes, let him come," he said. Then he glanced sharply at the central air conditioner, feeling like the temperature in the room had fallen by a hinedered degrees Celsius in one second. The door opened almost immediately to reveal Reynolds
