A new Wednesday morning arrived, bright and clear. Sable paced the wide parking garage of the Morte main home, eyes fixed on Zander/Ice. He was still nursing his pride and remembers their previous spar. Sable: "Driver! Hey, Ice!" Sable began sparring jokely to Zander/Ice like a kid, throwing slow, exaggerated punches that whistled through the air. He danced around the sedan, giggling at his own clumsiness. Sable: "How did you know to move like that? Come on, show me that fancy footwork again! Was it a movie? Did you learn it from a cartoon?" Zander/Ice's counters his joking spar with minimal effort. He simply stepped back or deflected the slow-motion blows with his forearms, maintaining a blank, professional expression. Onyx came in from the security station, his face a mask of duty, but his eyes were sharp. Onyx: "Mr. Morte, perhaps you should save your energy. You might need extra careful on what he experienced in their last spar, Sir. You shouldn't risk another collapse." Sa

WHO IS THE MYSTERIOUS LADY? Hours passed. River composed himself, walking back to the Seller's Lounge, trying to erase the panic from his expression. He offered a strained "Good afternoon" to Klea, now seated at the Sales Director's desk, and reported his status. River initiated his own break again, rushed to the nearest shopping mall. He purposefully went to the Kid's Toy station; a crowded, noisy environment that was perfect for a discreet conversation. He initiated a group videocall with Teggo, Merk, Onyx, and Ellvys. Teggo (on screen): "River, what's with the giant stuffed bear? Nice alibi huh!!!" River: "Of course. Ellvys, is it better to do an audiocall now? and I need noise masking... and I need this conversation untraceable." Ellvys: "Done. Everyone, cameras off, audio only. Let's go dark." All obeys and turns off their camera. River switched his phone to audiocall and shoved it into his jacket pocket. Teggo: "Alright, River. What did you find? Why the emergency?" Rive

It was 02:44 PM. The grand Morte car screeched to a halt at the emergency entrance of the city’s most exclusive hospital. Sable was rushed inside, supported by his father, Iñigo Morte, and his best friend, Dimé. Sable was pale, but already regaining his dramatic flair. Sable: "I'm telling you, I'm fine! Get me out of this place! I'm ready to go home!" Iñigo: "You collapsed, son! The doctor needs to check your vitals. You pushed too hard." Dimé: "Just relax, man. The papers can wait." After a quick, perfunctory examination, Sable, still insistent, was released. He was now sitting in the back of the grand car with Iñigo and Dimé. Sable: "Ice is an animal. I need to be more careful with him." Iñigo: "Careful? You collapsed from exhaustion, Sable. You've been overdoing it since the Morte acquisition." Sable: "No, Father. It was the driver. He hit me. Not hard, but..." Sable trailed off, a confused look crossing his face. "I wonder why Ice know that kind of wealthy self-defense. He'

SABLE GOING WORST It was a new Monday, nine in the morning. The air in the greenery and wide parking garage of the Morte main home was still cool. Sable was already there, pacing, waiting for his aunt's car, and taking the opportunity to mock Zander/Ice, who was polishing the car. Onyx, in his new Security Guard uniform, watched from a distance near the service elevator, keeping a professional, unmoving gaze on the situation. Sable: "Driver! Your reflection in that fender is disgusting. It looks like you slept in the car again." Zander/Ice: "No, sir." Sable: "Don't contradict me! That's what you blue-collar people do, isn't it? Sleep in the dirt and expect a paycheck for breathing Morte air. You're an embarrassment to this garage!" Zander/Ice didn't fight back. He simply lowered his gaze and continued his meticulous work. Sable laughed, satisfied, and turned toward the internal hallway leading to the main house entrance. As soon as Sable was out of sight, Onyx moved swiftly, clo

🌎 NEW WORLD It was nine in the morning at the Steel Tower. Teggo was already working in his spacious, sleek office, immersed in the digital schematics of Morte’s new Cell Boost Initiative. The door swung open, and Merk strode in, carrying a large, brightly colored box. Merk: "Surprise, boss! Or should I say, friend?" Teggo looked up, genuinely surprised. "Boss or a friend! Whatever! You don't have to... but... thank you!" Merk: "You're welcome. I really like your office, man." Merk placed the box on Teggo's desk. "Seriously, man, I wanted to thank you for this new career as your Personal Assistant. The whole work-from-home setup is incredible. I've already automated half your scheduling." Before Teggo could respond, the office door opened again. Ellvys walked in, balancing a bottle of expensive champagne and three crystal flutes. Ellvys: "And what’s a new career without a proper toast?" Teggo: "Ellvys! You two organized this? What about your data breach?" Ellvys: "I’m an an

SMILING AND CLAPPING t was 9 AM, Saturday morning, and the Morte palace grounds were quiet. Zander/Ice was preparing one of the fleet cars near the service entrance when Sable found him. Madame Cassandra Morte was nowhere in sight.Sable: "Driver! Polish the hood of my car again! I can still see dusts clearly, and that offends me." Ice: "I'm the family driver, sir. Not the detailer." Sable stepped closer, his voice dropping to a harsh whisper. "In this house, you are whatever I say you are. You are out of payroll, working on my grandfather's pity. Are you arguing with me, lowlife? Remember your place. Look down when you address a Morte." Zander/Ice didn't argue further, nodding and returning to the car, still looking down upon the ground. Sable stalked away, satisfied with his early-morning domination. At 10 AM, Sable was at the Morte corporate building, savoring his victory when his father, Iñigo Morte, found him in his executive office. Iñigo Morte: "Sable! Son! Congratulations
