Chapter 47
“This is all you got? Really… how can I pay you so much when this is all you got with you??!”
Slamming the table, Aiden was furious. He know that there is something he can use to deal with paul. But even after using much money and contacts in the underworld, he can’t find anything at all.
“Wait… you got nothing but this perfectly fine files…”
Smirking as he realized something,
“Tell them I want to meet them. Now”
“Yes sir”
Elton then came inside the office. Seeing how Aiden was fixing his coat, he can’t help but feel like he was off to somewhere.
“Where are you going this time?”
“Gonna handle something I should have handled before” he mumbled replying to his friend.
“What, hey man. You sure you are not doing something dangerous?”
But his friend didn’t even dare looking at him. Which left him be worried.
“Elton, don’t you even dare stop me. I had many things I regret and I don’t want to add this in those pile. I know what I am doing… if he want to play like a good guy, why shall I not take the mask of the bad guy then?”
Confused in what was going on, he tried to stop his dear friend.
“Aiden…”
“I leave the company to you. I already did the works just be my stand in if something happened”
The door shut close leaving Elton alone inside the room. Again, having no words to say about the actions of Aiden
“But isn’t that what I always do? Really, instead of a shareholder shouldn’t he upgrade my rank as co-partner? But as if he would do that… hah Aiden… you should really fix your life men…”
…
“How much did he sold himself to you?”
Wearing a mask as he talk with the other person, or course none of them would wish to show their faces. After all, shady things would be printed on their name once they are seen.
“What are you talking about? Sir… I don’t think I know what you are trying to say”
‘Playing fool huh’NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
Putting down the diamond he brought with him, the man as fat as pig was about to touch it when he pull it back to his side again. Hiding it behind his palm.
“You know I hate people playing like a fool. Sold him to me. This is far more than his worth, isn’t it?”
Laughing as he put his hands forming one big fist, the fatty guys smirked and stare at Aiden.
“I like you. I never thought you are one rich kiddo”
“Money is never an issue here. Now are you letting me buy everything that man is hiding or would your like to kiss this diamond a goodbye”
When it comes to money, it is indeed powerful. Specially if there is no truth between two people. Money matters the most. But for a diamond, just those words are not enough to match it up.
Selling one’s info and turning their back at them, a diamond is truly worthy than that mere connection. Much more if that said person is someone you truly holds no dear at all.
…
“Brylle, you look like a mess”
Lino put his hand on his face as he was looking at his friend.
“Never once in my life did I ever think of you being my patient… hah… just what happened to you?”
“Of course it is surely something related to Lea. His girl- um… fiance sorry, alright fiance he told the whole world”
Glaring at him, he was surprised when he heard how his name was called.
“Sam”
“What?? Did I say anything wrong??” Samantha exclaimed as she was standing with her tummy touching the back of the chair that was supporting her weights.
“But really dude, you look like a big mess”
With Brylle standing up soon as he finish the nap he took, even if Lino wants to stop his friend he know that he won’t listen. Looking at Sam, she just glare at him with her unbelieving eyes.
“Really? You think he would listen to me? Maybe if the world would end tomorrow he would”
Shaking his head, they just let Brylle put on his jacket and head to the door.
“Thanks, I have to go”
He mumbled and soon received a reply.
“Take care”
“Right, take care bry!”
Soon as he left, Lino look at Sam and asked.
“Well it turns out you are right. That girl brings no good to him”
Sipping the juice that she stole from Lino’s lunchbox, Sam nodded her head.
“Well, aren’t man normally be like that when they love? I didn’t exactly mean to say that she is bad for him. It’s just… I had a hunch things won’t work out between them”
Agreeing in what he just heard “Yeah- wait, is that my drink- Samantha…” there his drink was stolen dry
Giggling as she tried to run away from the mad Lino, she head to the door trying to escape
“Well not anymore. Pfft just think of this as a token of apology for not believing on me last time!”
“You… Now I wonder why but your hunch isn’t helpful at all… Samantha!!”
“Idiot, as if Ms. Sylphia would even want to date you. You wish”
Leaving the room with the drink on her hand, she walk away with a grin on her face. But just when she thought it would be a good day for her, she didn’t know she would win a lottery.
‘Now this is why I had the urge to go out of that room… why is she here? but… more than that… it is my lucky day. I can feel it’
“Ms. Sylphia!”
“Oh, Sam”
She greeted as soon as she saw the sight of the girl that greeted her with such enthusiasm.
“You remember?”
“Yes of course I would. What are you doing here?”
A big smile cant contain on her lips.
“Hehe, it is such a coincidence isn’t it?”
giggling, she relly finds it fun to talk with her.
“Yeah… I think so too”
“Wanna grab a coffee with me? Or are you perhaps have an important thing to do? Ms Sylphia?”
With her acting like a gently puppy in front of her, she don’t know why but her sixth senses is telling her it might work.
‘Why am I so lucky today? I wonder…’
“But I don’t like strong coffee thought”
Nodding her head, she giggled.
“I know a perfect place for your buds”
“Okay, you lead the way”
‘Just as I thought, it would work!’
…
“Lui!! You came!”
Shaking and almost not wanting to step inside, Lui, that man came to save his friends.
“I am here… please let them go”
Arriving almost being late in the said time, his two friends almost thought that he won’t came and chicken out.
“You finally arrive… Lui”
Paul surely is mad. Wiping the gun he had on his hand, he was sitting in his most comfortable position.
“Now tell me, where the hell have you been?”
Gulping, the sweat forming on his temple can be seen.
“Sir… he betrayed us”
“What are you talking about?”
“Carl, sir. He told Aiden everything. The Lazarus knew everything you did. Sir”
“Carl? Really, thank you for telling me…”
Bang bang
Two consecutive shot then echoed all over the room as Paul points his gun to Lui’s friends.
Collapsing on the ground as soon as he know what happened to his dear friend. The gun then points at him.
“Are you really sure it is Carl? Don’t think you can fool me. You sing me out, didn’t you?”
“It is really Carl… I didn’t I…”
Shaking his head, tears fall on his eyes.
‘What have I’ve done? I shouldn’t have… agreed with him in the first place…’
And another gun shot was heard before Paul went out of the room.
“Clean up everything nice and shiny. Make sure none would know”
“Yes sir”
Walking out to head outside, each step that he took, there is only one person that comes on his mind.
“The only one who can turn the tables upside down… ”
Putting his phone near his ear, the tone of phone ringing can be heard.
[Yes? What is it?]
“There you are… I know where she is, Lea, I found her”
