As they were walking out from the Jinling train station, Chen Xiaolian, Roddy and Da Gang were walking side by side when they heard someone shouting from behind. Turning their heads, they saw that a man with thick glasses was running toward them.

“… … Doctor Mu?”

Chen Xiaolian recognized the man.

After rushing over, Doctor Mu gasped for breath and looked at Chen Xiaolian. Then, he looked at Da Gang and Roddy. Finally, his gaze came to rest upon Da Gang’s body. “I caught sight of you just as I was coming out from the station. I thought it might be you so I quickly ran over. I didn’t think that it would actually be you!”

Da Gang did not say anything. Chen Xiaolian on the other hand, smiled. “Doctor Mu, what are you doing here?”

“It just so happened that I am involved with a programme. It is an exchange programme where our hospital swaps doctors with another hospital in Jinling. I am sent to XX Hospital in Jinling as an exchange doctor as part of my training programme,” Doctor Mu said. Then, he looked at Da Gang. “How is your body holding up?”

Da Gang shook his head and said coolly. “I am fine.”

There was a complicated look in Doctor Mu’s eyes. “Truth be told… after returning to the hospital yesterday, I had looked up on your injuries and the pictures taken when you were admitted… this incident is too strange. The pictures taken clearly showed that…”

He shook his head and his expression turned distressed. “Perhaps there was an error somewhere. There is no other explanation to what had happened. It seems that the misdiagnosis from back then had caused you to suffer, wasting so much money in the process.”

“It’s all right,” Chen Xiaolian smiled. His impression toward this Doctor Mu was very good. “You are a very responsible doctor. At any rate, since you are here in Jinling, let us exchange our phone numbers. If you come across any difficulties here, just give us a call. After all, we are the local residents here.”

Doctor Mu did not refuse and exchanged numbers with Chen Xiaolian. However, it was apparent that he was more interested in Da Gang. He kept suggesting to Da Gang to go to the Jinling hospital that he was now working in for a body check-up. Still, Chen Xiaolian had helped Da Gang to turn him down.

Doctor Mu could do nothing. He could also say nothing toward that decision. Besides, who would be willing to go to the hospital when they feel fine?

Chen Xiaolian had wanted to buy Doctor Mu a meal as a token of friendliness. However, Doctor Mu had rejected the offer. According to him, he had to quickly report to the hospital. Thus, they went their separate ways after their meeting in the train station.

Da Gang’s arrival led to another guest in Chen Xiaolian’s house.

That was something of an inconvenience.

Thus, Roddy the plutocrat stepped forward and rented up the entire floor of the fitness centre. The several rooms beside the training room were turned into a dormitory.

That way, everyone was able to live in the fitness centre.

Time passed and another week went by leisurely.

Da Gang simply went with the flow and stayed in the fitness centre’s dorm. Every day, he would help keep the place clean and hygienic. He would then spend the rest of his time in his own room, reading books. He showed a rather taciturn temperament.

Occasionally, he would follow them out for a meal. There, he would sit beside and have his meal while rarely saying anything. After some time, Lun Tai and Bei Tai came to understand this temperament of his and did not suspect anything.

During training time, Chen Xiaolian and the others were originally quite worried that Da Gang will become shocked once he caught sight of the way they were training themselves.

Then, on one day, Da Gang inadvertently saw Lun Tai training Xia Xiaolei in combat techniques. Watching Xia Xiaolei getting whipped by Lun Tai, Da Gang simply looked on silently for a moment before turning away to continue doing his own stuff.

Due to that, Lun Tai and Bei Tai came to like the taciturn fellow.

Someone who was not causing problems, someone who was not a chatterbox, someone who worked honestly while maintaining a calm atmosphere – people like this would never be hated no matter where they go.

Chen Xiaolian and Roddy continued going to school. However, the difference between the two gradually became obvious.

Chen Xiaolian went to school every day, seemingly cherishing the feelings of normal everyday life. Roddy on the other hand, was the opposite. The fellow’s rate of attendance gradually fell and the number of times he played truant increased. Slowly, Chen Xiaolian was the only one left going to school.

Every day after school, he would go to the fitness centre. Occasionally, he would cook meals for everyone.

In fact, Chen Xiaolian’s cooking skills were nothing to brag about. However, every time he cooked, Da Gang would eat it all up.

Although the days were going by uneventfully, for Chen Xiaolian, the biggest problem within his heart was becoming inevitable!

Chen Xiaolian’s patience was almost running out. He made up his mind. If there were still no news from Qiao Yifeng, then he would have to take the initiative to find Qiao Yifeng and discuss the matter with him…

That evening, Chen Xiaolian was inside the fitness centre. He was venting his anger by punching a sandbag.

The thick leather sandbag with several layers upon it was burst apart from the impact of his punch. He then took down the sandbag and tossed it aside.

As he was putting it down the corner, his mobile phone suddenly rang out.

He went to pick up the phone and found that it was an unfamiliar number. Additionally… it was from abroad.

“Hello?”

After accepting the call, the voice that came through the phone gave Chen Xiaolian a shock!

“Xiaolian oppa!”

“Soo Soo?”

Chen Xiaolian quickly gripped onto the mobile phone. “Soo Soo! Where are you?”

Through the phone, Soo Soo sounded short of breath. Seemingly lowering her voice, she quickly said. “Xiaolian oppa! Hurry up and get us out of here. Me and sister are being held by them. They won’t let us leave. I am calling to you secretly. Oh, no! They are coming; I need to hang off now! Hurry up and find us! We are in London!”

After she said that, the call ended.

Chen Xiaolian held onto the mobile phone and listened to the beeping tone indicating that the call had ended. A few seconds later, he attempted to call the number. However, no one answered.

He pondered it and ended the call. He also did not try to call the number again – he feared that it would cause unnecessary problems for Soo Soo.

Chen Xiaolian quickly ran out of the training room and into the resting room beside.

“Roddy! Roddy!”

…

“London?”

Roddy’s eyes were wide open.

“That’s right, London,” Chen Xiaolian sighed and smiled wryly. “Old Man Qiao sure is vicious. He actually sent them to London. He is probably afraid that we would find them if they were within the country.”

“For him… something like this is not too difficult,” Roddy smiled grudgingly. Then, he turned toward Chen Xiaolian. “What do you plan on doing?”

“Go find them!” Chen Xiaolian did not hesitate. “Bring them back even if we have to use force! Even if we fail, we must at least meet up with Old Man Qiao and talk things through with him!”

Since the decision was made, Chen Xiaolian and Roddy quickly took action.

The procedures involving passports and visas were handled by Roddy. Even before this, Chen Xiaolian was someone who would always travel around. Thus, his passport was readily available. As for the matters regarding visas, that was not an issue for Roddy.

After discussing it through, they decided to have Xia Xiaolei leave behind while Lun Tai and Bei Tai followed them to London – in case a fight were to happen, with his present battle strength, Xia Xiaolei would not be of much help.

On the third day, Chen Xiaolian, Roddy, Lun Tai and Bei Tai got on the plane to London.

After ten plus hours, the plane landed in the London Heathrow International Airport.

Although the ten plus hours spent on the plane was exhausting, for the four of them who have had their bodies enhanced, the flight was not a problem. More importantly, the four of them had no need to carry any luggage. Everything was thrown into Chen Xiaolian’s Storage Watch – the space afforded inside was as big as three containers combined.

After the four of them walked out of the airport, they rushed toward the city.

In the evening, Roddy managed to, through the municipal system, find the location where Soo Soo had made the call from two days ago.

It was a public telephone by the street.

Chen Xiaolian and his group quickly moved to the location area and found the phone booth.

The phone booth was located within the corner of a very narrow street – most of the streets in London were not wide.

Chen Xiaolian attempted to call the number using his mobile phone. Sure enough, ringing sounds came from the phone booth.

“It appears this is it,” Roddy sighed. Looking up and down the street, he frowned. “How are we going to find…”

Chen Xiaolian narrowed his eyes as he surveyed the area. Suddenly, he extended his hand out and pointed.

Across the street was a modest sized restaurant. Clear window walls allowed the people inside to view what was happening outside. In addition, there were also some open-air cafés and stores.

Chen Xiaolian slowly said. “We’ll split up. Go ask around in those places and see if we can find any clues.”

Thus, the four of them split up. Each of them had the picture of Qiao Qiao and Soo Soo with them. They went around the pubs, restaurants, cafes, stores in the vicinity and inquired about them.

Chen Xiaolian held on the his mobile phone that had the picture of Qiao Qiao and Soo Soo as he walked out of a restaurant after a fruitless round of attempt. As he was walking out, he saw Roddy running over, gasping for breath. Chen Xiaolian quickly ran over and asked. “Anything?”

Roddy nodded and he said quickly. “The pub in front. I showed him Soo Soo’s picture and he told me that he saw her before. However, she was soon taken away by several adults.”

Pausing, Roddy smiled bitterly. “According to the man, he saw that Soo Soo was a little girl from the east. So were the adults who had escorted her away. They were all Chinese. Thus, nobody cared about it. It was only because of Soo Soo’s attire, she was wearing very special clothes, that he had noticed her. Her clothes were clearly the clothes worn by a child of a wealthy family.”

“And then?”

Roddy pointed in the direction of a street. “He said that she was taken somewhere in that direction.”

After meeting up with Lun Tai and Bei Tai, the four of them moved along the street – in the direction pointed out by the witness.

Soon, the street came to an end. They stood still.

Before them was an outdoor pier by the side of the River Thames.

They brought out Soo Soo’s pictures and asked around the cafes beside the pier. In the end, they managed to get some information.

According to a waitress from one of the cafes, she saw a group of Asians boarding a boat together, it was a private yacht. Then, they left – she seemed to recall seeing a little Asian girl with them as well.

Private yacht?

Chen Xiaolian’s eyebrows furrowed together.

Considering how big the River Thames was, the many piers located along the river and the high number of yachts travelling through the river… only Heaven would know where they would move to land. Where would they go…

Roddy swore in a whisper. “How in the son of bitch are we supposed to find them!”

Chen Xiaolian raised his head and inspected the surrounding area. Suddenly, he found a surveillance camera set up some distant away by a street.

“Roddy, look!”

Roddy turned his head to follow Chen Xiaolian’s gaze.

Chen Xiaolian slowly said. “I recall seeing a news report before. A few years ago… when London was hosting the Olympic games, it boasts a total of 500,000 surveillance cameras! I think…”

“I understand!” Roddy’s eyes lit up. However, he soon frowned. “Transferring the videos for those surveillance cameras is not easy… I do not have the ability to hack into the police’s surveillance system. My ability is Mechanical Heart, not Internet Heart eh… I’m not quite capable of hacking.”

Chen Xiaolian sighed.

Lun Tai who was standing beside them heard what they were talking about and pondered the matter. “Maybe we can think of something else.”

“Oh?”

Lun Tai slowly said. “In every place, where there is light, there is darkness. We foreigners may be incapable of doing something like this. But, some gang leaders would surely have a way.”

Chen Xiaolian looked at Lun Tai, who smiled. “We have been to Europe before for an instance dungeon. Bei Tai came to befriend two fellows here. Maybe they can help find out if there is any method.”

The expression on Bei Tai’s face was cautious. “The two fellows I am acquainted with are involved with the trading of firearms. However… they might be able to get the police’s surveillance videos. I can try to go find those acquaintances.”

“Then, we’ll try that first,” Chen Xiaolian quickly agreed. “We’ll split up! Lun Tai and Bei Tai, you two move together and find Bei Tai’s friend. See if there is any method to find the police’s surveillance videos. As for me…”

He took a deep breath and looked at the River Thames before him. “Roddy and I will look for the yacht along the river… even if it’s dependent on luck; at least it is better than just staying around in a hotel and waiting senselessly for news.”

Chen Xiaolian was the Guild Leader. After seeing that there was no objection, he had them split up.

Roddy quickly made a call to a yacht rental company and chartered a small-size yacht with the permit to sail upon the River Thames. Then, both Roddy and Chen Xiaolian boarded the yacht and sailed along the River Thames to search around – although this method was quite senseless by itself and the chances of it finding anything was pretty much close to zero, it was still as Chen Xiaolian had said, better than staying idle while waiting for news.

Lun Tai and Bei Tai left together to meet up with Bei Tai’s ‘friends’.

…

Truthfully, it was hard to find anything by watching out from the yacht while sailing along the River Thames. But along the way, they could see the famed Tower of London and the London Eye – however, Chen Xiaolian and Roddy were not in the mood for sightseeing.

During the night, the scenery of the surface of the River Thames was quite something.

After drifting about upon the surface of the river for nearly two hours, the staff members of the yacht reminded the two of them that the vision of the river would become poor at night. They advised the two of them to dock the yacht.

Both Chen Xiaolian and Roddy felt anxious.

At that moment however, something occurred to make them even more anxious!

“F**k!”

Chen Xiaolian was unable to contain himself and he swore out.


We attend school, find love, work, buy a house, pay our housing loans, insert weird faces in WeChat, watch movies… do any of you find anything amiss? One day, a group of strange people entered this world, equipped in strange clothing and possessing extraordinary powers, cold-blooded killers! They call themselves [Players]. 

Wait! Wait! You people want to kill me? You say I am NPC (Non Playable Character)? Stop joking around! You crazy bastards! I will fight you to the death! I will survive!

NPC beating up Players! Original residents beating up Transmigrants!

My world, my rules! What makes you think you bastards can come over and boss us around?

Treading the path of the strongest saviour in history, one destined to be filled with excitement!

…

Chen Xiaolian: From today onwards, an organization whose sole purpose is to oppose those bastards is established! Our guild shall be named… Player Thwarting Alliance!

Guild Member: Leader, this name, if we are to say it out, I fear we will be beaten up… 

Aleksis and Alaric were never shy with their public display of affection and people close to them could now already got used to it. Initially, when London and Rune saw their sister and her husband showed intimacy, they would just roll their eyes and rush out.
But now, London no longer felt embarrassed seeing the intimacy of his sister and brother-in-law. Now that he, himself, was in love, he could appreciate their closeness as a couple.
London realized that when a man fell in love, they could be really sweet towards the woman they love. Now, he could understand why Alaric could look at his wife with so much love, as she did to him.
His mind flew back to L and imagined that it was him who was sitting on the sofa and he spread his hands, signaling L to sit on his lap.
And when L sat on his lap, London would be able to touch her delicate skin, smell her fragrant hair, and feel her body that was soft like a marshmallow ...
Ugh .…
The man suddenly felt his body stiffen and became uncomfortable. Something was throbbing on his lower body, from just thinking about how L would sit on his lap. He hurriedly excused himself from Alaric and Aleksis to rest in the guest room.
Once he was in the room, London immediately entered the bathroom and soaked his body in cold water to relieve his discomfort.
***
After he calmed down, London finally got ready to sleep. It was 11 p.m. in Singapore, which meant 5 p.m. in Germany. He then took his cellphone and decided to call L.
He really wanted to hear the girl's voice. The last time they met was two days ago and he had asked her permission to call her. So, he should be able to call now, right?
RING...
RING...
RING...
His chest was pounding for some reason while waiting for L to pick up his phone call. He was thinking, if L was not busy and her mood was good, London would invite her to connect through Virconnect 4D and talk to her side by side. He couldn't wait to see the girl.
Hmm ...
After the tenth ring, the call was still not picked up. London began to feel anxious.
Was L busy?
He then contacted Jan to find out her schedule.
"Jan, do you know what L is doing now?" he asked quickly, not even giving Jan time to say hello.
At the other end of the phone, Jan could only roll his eyes and cough a little. As a director at Schneider Group, he felt that his responsibility had far exceeded his job description.
On the one hand, he was actually the Director of HR division who was responsible for the fate of tens of thousands of employees in Europe and is highly respected. But on the other hand, he was in charge of taking a schedule of a mere aspiring singer. 
London only trusted him with this task just because his boss did not want others to know he was in love with L. So, Jan was the one who had to take care of all his boss' personal affairs.
"Ahem ... wait a minute ..." Jan coughed and then checked his notes. "She has nothing to do at the moment. Ms. L should be resting at home now."
"Oh ..." London was puzzled. L had nothing scheduled today. It means that she should be able to pick up calls from London. "She didn't pick up my calls earlier."
"Maybe she couldn't pick up your call because she is in the toilet, or taking a shower?" Jan asked. "That happens, you know."
"Ah, you're right. I'll try to call her again in half an hour," London said. "Thank you."
He then put his phone on the bedside table and waited for up to 30 minutes. Then he called L.
RING...
RING...
RING...
Until the twelfth ring, L still didn't pick up London's phone calls.
Wait.... she can't possibly still in the toilet, right? London became more puzzled.
Or maybe she was having a stomachache or even diarrhea? He immediately became anxious. Hurriedly, London called Jan back.
"Jan, would you please send Marc or Dave to check on L's condition. L has been in the toilet for too long, she still hasn't picked up my calls," London said quickly. "If she is ill, tell them to take her directly to the hospital or get her a doctor."
"Wait... what?!?" Jan could not believe his own hearing. "Are you asking Dave or Marc to come to Miss L's apartment and check her toilet to find her and take her to the hospital just because she hasn't picked up your phone call?!"
Jan was really tempted to slam down his cellphone.
"I've called her many times, but she didn't pick up the phone. Didn't you say she was in the toilet?" asked London in surprise.
Jan cleared his throat several times and cursed inwardly. He remembered his boss being an intelligent young man with a really high IQ, but for some reason, since the past few weeks, it seemed like his intelligence level had gone down so dramatically ...
"Wait a minute, Sir. I'll make sure something first." Jan finally hung up and called L's number himself.
London who was waiting in Singapore became restless while he tried to wait for news from Jan. He was afraid that L got sick, or something bad happened to her, so she could not pick up his calls.
Jan was a very efficient assistant. Three minutes later he had called London again and explained what had happened.
"Sir, I just called Miss L and she was at home, reading a book. She is not ill or experiencing bad things. You may calm down."
"Oh, is that so? All right. Then I'll call her again," said London. He hung up on Jan.
Alright ... L was apparently fine. London could not wait to hear the girl's voice.
RING...
RING...
RING...
Twelve rings and then... nothing. L still didn't pick up phone calls from London.
Didn't Jan call L and the girl picked up? So, she must be okay ...
Then why didn't she pick up my calls?
Did she....?
Finally, London could only sigh. His chest suddenly felt tight. Now he realized, that L intentionally did not want to take his calls. Even though two days ago she had given him permission to call, today she didn't want to talk to him.
What's the matter? What did I do wrong?
Why is it so difficult to understand this woman???

I go to the food court where she is talking to a guy. I know she is flirting with him. Because she doesn't know to talk normally with guys. I run to her and glare at her angrily. "What?" She asks. "Nothing, you continue to flirt" I say as I sit beside her. "Hy, who flirt with a gross like him man" she makes an annoyed face. 

I giggle. That guy gets up and glares at us and walks away. We both giggle and the small giggle turned into a great laughter. We both are laughing like a maniac in our busy food court. Everyone looks at us now and then and no one comes and asks anything. Because they know about us. 

I pull her and walk out of food court. It is actually a great time of my life. After this I have to leave everyone behind and go to some unknown place and live with unknown people. The thought itself is haunting me. 

"Mum prepared Maggie for both of us. Come we will eat soon." I say as I pull her along with me. "Don't pull me. I can walk on my own." She says annoyed. "Yeah I know how you will walk. You will flirt with 500 boys before crossing 5 meters." I say and chuckle. 

"One day you will ask me to teach you about these flirting things. I am waiting for that day." She says and analyses me from top to bottom. "You have nice figure. Why are you wanna waste it?" She winks at me. "Shut up" I say angrily. "See, one day you will see that big d**k on your wedding night. What will you do, if you accidentally puked on it?" She says and laughed heavily.

I am so angry now. How can she talk like that. I walk fastly and go inside the classroom. This is so annoying when someone judges me based on my sex life. No it is my would be sex life. I am just 18 and one day I will learn everything. My biology tutor skipped the reproduction chapter just because she didn't want to explain that to me. What I learnt from this is that sex is a sin and no one wants to talk about it. 

How can she shout in the open space about my would be sex life. She comes and sits beside me. "Sorry, I was just joking." She says sadly. I look at her. She is really sad. "Ok" I whisper. She hugs my shoulder abd smiles. "But still you should learn something you know." She winks at me as she says this. 

In the evening, I reach home and complete all my work. I get my passport. I applied for it on the next day of my 18th birthday which is October 23. I got it today after months of process. So finally the first step to reach my dream is done. 

I have 3 more months of school. After that 3 months of vacation. After that I will fly to London. I am excited as well as scared. Yeah, everyone feels this when they do something new. 

These 3 months went to fast. I don't know why. I was so consumed with everything. My exams and all other things which need to be done before I go to London. I finished everything successfully and emailed all the documents to London University. I am waiting for there call letter and I have only 3 months to spend with my parents. 

I want to enjoy as much as I want. We are planning to go to Maldives for the vacation. 

In the evening, dad comes home with a present packed nicely with a red gift wrap. "What is it dad?" I ask him. "Open it and see" he says with a huge grin like it's gonna tear his face. I take the red wrap box and remove the gift wrap carefully. When I remove the red wrap there is one more pink wrap. I remove that carefully and I am dumbstruck to see what is it. I look at my father's face with wide eyes. He laughs and pats my shoulder. 

"I... I... I don't need this dad" I say slowly. "Everyone needs phone Jessy. You would need one." He smiles and pats my shoulder again. I never ever thought about owning a phone. That too iPhone man. Can you imagine? I got iPhone as a gift from my dad. 

I install everything in my new phone. I never had an account in social media. I create an account in Facebook and Instagram. I open what's app as well. I immediately save Grace's phone number and call her. 

"Hy Grace. It's me Jessy" I say happily. "Hy Jessy. Did you lost your mom or dad in super market?" Why are you calling from unknown number?" She asks lazily. "I got new phone you dummy. I say sarcastically. "What?" She literally shouted. "I got new phone. Dad gifted me today." I say smiled. "Ask your dad if he wants one more daughter. Can you guys adopt me please?" She asks. I laugh and say, "If you want your parents to gift something, you should do something to make them proud." I say. "Ok ok, Don't start your lecture. Yeah you know what, Aaron released his new music album after his breakup. It is actually so painful. Wanna listen?" She asks enthusiastically. "Not interested" I say sarcastically. 

"Please listen, just one song. I will not force you after this. Please." She asks like a kid asking for a chocolate. "Ok" I say sternly. "Ok, I will what's app you that. Ok" She says and disconnects the call. She sends me the audio in what's app. I open and stare at the title of the song for few minutes. This is named "Love song". I take my earphones and plug it. I tap the pay button and the song start with love.

Jessy: Do you do this to kid? 
Aaron: Do what?
Jessy: Kiss. You called me kid then kissed me. So I had a doubt. 
Aaron: As for as I know the kid was enjoying the kiss. ?
Jessy: I didn't say I didn't enjoy.
Aaron: Hmm. I know. I know you enjoyed it. 
Jessy: Thank you. 
Aaron: For???
Jessy: Everything. 
Aaron: You have to specify it. Say thank for making my first kiss special Aaron. 
Jessy: Thank you for making my first kiss special Aaron.
Aaron: Hmm. You are so beautiful and sexy babe.

Sexy??? Does he feel that I am sexy?? Seriously? Whatever man? I don't know what to respond for that.

Jessy: Hmm
Aaron: I wanted you to accompany me her in bed today. You left. 
Jessy: We just met yesterday. I don't think so it's appropriate to sleep together. 
Aaron: Tell that in front of me. Tell that when You are under me. 
Jessy: Stop it.
Aaron: You don't want that?
Jessy: I don't know.
Aaron: You will know once you meet me tomorrow. 
Jessy: You are so dirty. Good night.
Aaron: Good night babes... ♥️

I am so happy now. I turn of my phone and close my eyes.

After sending Violet with John, Ian decided to check up on Noah's grandfather, Jonathan.
"Hey, grandpa." Ian greeted the senior Carter as soon as he entered his ward.
"At least you have come to meet me. My unfilial grandson has not visited me at all since I woke up." He sulked. 
Ian chuckled. The old man looked like a cute little boy who had been refused his favorite snack.
"Grandpa that's not the case. Your family visited you in the morning right." Ian remembered seeing the Carter family giving him a visit early in the morning that day.
"I am not talking about them. You know who I am talking about?" The old man huffed.
"Grandpa, he would have come to meet you if he was in the city." Ian tried to calm him.
"Where has he gone?" Jonathan looked at Ian.
"He has gone to London."
"Why?"
"He had a business deal to complete."
"Are you saying the truth?"
"Why would I lie to you, Grandpa?" Ian shrugged.
"Give me my phone." Jonathan pointed to his phone on the table. Ian handed him his phone and stood beside him thinking what the old man was up to.
"I'll confirm it with Noah." He dialed Noah's number only to be rejected at once on the first ring. He tried again, only to be met with the same result.
"How dare this grandson of mine reject my calls?" He was annoyed. He then tried Ronnie's number. He knew Noah did not go anywhere without his head bodyguard, Ronnie.
"Hello, Master," Ronnie answered on the second ring. 'Why is Master calling me?' He thought.
"Where is my grandson?" He bellowed on the phone.
"Master, Boss is in London," Ronnie replied. He was scared hearing Jonathan's angry voice.
"Why?"
"He had a business meeting to attend."
"Give him the phone right now. I want to talk to him."
Sweat started to trickle down Ronnie's face. How could he hand over his phone to his Boss? His Boss had gone to meet the likely to be Lady Boss and moreover, he had not accompanied him that day. 
Noah knew Aria had seen Ronnie on the plane. So he was careful not to bring him with him.
"Master, Boss is very busy."
"I don't care. Give him the phone right now." Jonathan interrupted Ronnie.
Ian was hearing everything. He realized at this rate, the old man would find out Noah's real intentions in going to London.
"Master, I cannot give him the phone."
"Why?"
"Because I am not with him." Ronnie's voice was quite low.
There was silence for a few minutes on the other side. Ronnie checked the call to see if it was disconnected. No, the call was still on-going.
"Master." He called out. 
"Master. He called out again.
"What do you mean he is not with you? Tell me the truth. Don' you dare lie."
Ronnie shivered. He understood he had no choice other than to reveal the truth.
"Master, Boss has gone on a date."
"Did you say he has gone a date?" Jonathan said. 
Ian's ears quirked upon hearing the word date. 'Wow that was quite fast. What did he do actually for Aria to accept to go on a date with him?'
"Yes Master," Ronnie said praying the Almighty to save him.
"Who is that woman?"
"Master, she is a doctor at Regal Medical Hospital. She is a colleague of Dr Davis." Jonathan looked at Ian, making him raise his eyebrows in confusion.
"Send me her photographs right now."
"Yes Master."
Jonathan ended the call. However, his eyes never left Ian.
"Is there a problem grandpa?"
"Do you know that woman?"
Ian understood that he was referring to Aria. He nodded a yes. "She is my colleague."
"What do you know about her?"
"Hmm. Her name is Aria West. She was my junior in school and college. In fact she was the one who treated you first when you fainted in the hallway. She is an excellent doctor and as far as I know she has never dated anyone before."
"What about her family?" Jonathan's interest was piqued.
"I don't know much about her family except that she has a twin sister. I also know that her mother is dead. She doesn't talk much about them."
At that moment, Jonathan's phone dinged indicating the arrival of a message. He looked at the photographs sent by Ronnie. It was of Noah and a beautiful girl sitting in a garden. The girl was looking to her right while Noah was gazing at her lovingly.
"Is she the one?" Jonathan held the phone for Ian to see clearly.
"Yes, that's Aria." 
"Well done." Jonathan punched his fists in the air in exhilaration.
Ian stared the old man dumbfounded. 'Did he by chance hit his brain when he fell? Why is he so happy? Am I only imagining things or, is Mr. Carter seriously very happy.' He rubbed his eyes, trying to clear them. He looked at Jonathan who was smiling like a fool.
"Grandpa, is everything alright?" Ian was seriously worried now.
"I am so happy today. Finally, my grandson has found himself a good girl." 
Jonathan looked at the picture on his phone and sighed, "My granddaughter-in-law is so beautiful and cute."
"Grandpa, but how can you be sure that she is the one. What if she is not who she proclaims herself to be?" Ian cleared his throat. He knew Aria was not like the other women who just wanted to leech off Noah's status and wealth. Anybody who would marry her would definitely be happy. He just wanted to make sure that Noah's family accepted her completely if their relationship progressed further.
"My hairs haven't turned white just like that. If she was a wicked person, then definitely you would have warned my grandson about it before he started to pursue her."
Ian lowered his head on listening to the old man's words. He realized nothing could be hidden from him. He already knew that Ian was supporting Noah in his pursuit.
"Aww. Look at these two. They look so perfect together. With these two having extraordinarily outstanding genes, I wonder how my great-grandkids will be. They will definitely be adorable and cute."
Ian choked on his own saliva. Noah and Aria's relationship hadn't even crossed the stage of friendship and this person in front of him was already planning how his great-grandkids would be.
'Unbelievable.' He thought.
As if these words were not enough, the old man continued with his crazy imagination. 
"How many children will these two have? I would want them to have as many as possible. However, it is still for them to decide."
"Grandpa. Grandpa. Let them first start dating each other. Then we can think about other things like marriage and kids." Ian put a brake to his speeding vehicle.
"You are right. First my grandson needs to make her his. But there is nothing wrong in thinking about the future right?"
 Ian shook his head, looking at the crazy man. He knew he couldn't stop his wild thoughts. In fact he too was waiting for Noah and Aria to be a couple. 'They would make a good pair.'

Aria and Ivy are twin sisters whose father has gone missing for three years. They have left no stone unturned to find him, but all in vain.
In an unusual encounter, a business tycoon, Noah Allen Carter, falls in love with Aria. Meanwhile Ivy approaches Joshua Martin, who is a friend of Noah, to help find her father and in the process falls for his charms. What happens when the sisters find that the people they love are the ones behind their misery?
............................................................................................
"Ivy, sweetheart. Please come back. I love you." Joshua cried holding her hand.  However, there was no response from her. 
"Ivy, please say something. Don't be like this."
Joshua kissed her hand, but Ivy had long made up her mind. Only a miracle could make her come back to him.
............................................................................................
"I hate you, Noah," she shouted.
"I love you, Aria," he replied, pulling her towards him.
"No, you don't."
"Yes, I do. Falling in love with you is the best thing that ever happened to me. I will always love you; today and forever."

My father taught me almost everything I know. I've followed in his reputable footsteps and have become a financier. My family have been financial consultants since my great-grandfather started the family business in London. 


There's still a London branch of Cash Consultants but I run the U.S. operation. 


Who am I a financier for? Well that's proprietary information at best and confidential at most intriguing. I will let you in on a family secret that's been passed on from father to son...don't start a confidential enterprise unless you know how not to get caught. 


Don't get me wrong, Cash Consultants is a legitimate business. We consult clients on which stocks to choose, how to create a diverse financial portfolio, and even exchange foreign currencies. However, there's more we are capable of that our website doesn't list. 


"Jude," said my stunning wife as she walks into the office. 


"You're late, darling," I answer to her as I sift through some financials for my ten o'clock appointment. 


However, my wife closes the folder I was looking at as she sits on the edge of my desk. "I was late on purpose. I know you only call me darling when you're upset with me but I can't help but love the way it sounds."


Shaking my head doesn't stop me from smirking. "So, do you have a reason why you're late, darling?"


"I do," she sighs as she takes her cell phone out to look at it. "I got a text this morning from the Yew Brothers that said...ah here it is...we need to schedule an emergency withdrawal, asap." My wife let's her phone rest on my desk as she holds my chin in her hands. "I really wish you hadn't given them my phone number."


My wife wasn't always so bold in her mannerisms. She was a mousy young lady when I first met her. I met her because she came to Cash Consultants although not for herself. She came to drop off some money for her father a mafia boss who still runs most of the underground dealings in Saint Louis, Missouri. If I'm being completely honest it wasn't love at first sight. 


Then again, I never did fall for a woman's looks.   It was always the brain I was running after. The smarter the sexier. My wife may look like an American Stepford wife but trust me when I say, I have yet to meet a woman smarter or cleverer than her. 


I close my eyes to give a sigh of my own, completely caught by surprise by my beloved's kiss. When I open my eyes, I look at her painted red lips. "I'm sorry Rhea, I'll not let your number slip from my heart out of my mouth next time."


"Hmm, you've always known exactly what to say. I think that's why father hasn't killed you yet."


"Yet?"


Rhea smirks as she adds, "My family doesn't believe in divorce but they live for fate to step in."


"It's probably good that divorce had never been an option for me then," I reply with a chuckle.

Mr. and Mrs. Cash are Financier's. Or at least that's what most people believe. The underground society of thieves, mafia lords, and the baddest and worst criminals know them as something else: Money Launderers.

London….. Present Day

It was a rare sunny day. Sun had come out of the thick clouds surrounding the foggy sky of London. People were coming out of their houses either for a walk, jog and a stroll in the park.

The atmosphere in the park was really lively today. It was a great day for their community. After all, the soul of their community, Robbie was going to be promoted today to the chief inspector of London police. He was going to be the youngest chief inspector in police history.

Robbie was a sincere and hardworking police officer in the London Police Force. Recipient of multiple prestigious awards, he was well respected and well-known by the lovely people of London while equally feared by the criminal underworld. Robbie loved to live life on the edge and never looked back on a challenge.

In just a year, his many daring activities and good deeds had made him so famous that he became an object of admiration and jealousy for many. His constant battle with internal police corruption as well as with the growing underground cartels had made him the eye candy of the media and poster boy of the London Police. As a result, it was decided that he will be promoted to chief inspector, which attracted irk of many who had been troubled by this honest police thug. After all, not only it was unprecedented for a constable to be directly promoted to chief inspector but also his honesty was a hindrance to many money loving cops.

A huge ceremony was organized by London police for this special occasion. Media outlets were invited. This ceremony was an inconspicuous statement of a show by London police to the world that they stood with honest cops and are against corruption and crime. 

The ceremony where Robbie was to receive his promotion to chief inspector was in full swing. It was suddenly besieged from nowhere by some masked armed thugs. The ceremony was supposed to be a no gun zone. As a result, no one had any gun and they all scattered to hide from the gunshots rampaging the venue. Surprisingly, not a single officer in charge of security was there to stop them. Even after 5 minutes of continuous firing, not a single officer resisted them. Before the eyes of everyone present there, Robbie was kidnapped and taken away. 

After the gunshots were stopped and the shock was dissipated from the area, a huge uproar spread out. Media made this a huge issue, questioning the capability of London police and resulting in the police and judicial investigation of it. A unanimous tip lead the media and consequently the world to the fact that the Police officers were instructed not to interfere in the kidnapping and to allow the masked thugs to bring guns in there. An inquiry by the judicial commission was conducted on this and the report stated that they were bribed with a million pound of donation to the police welfare fund. The Entire World was shunned and then there were mass suspensions of police officers. It affected the public perception of the London police. An event which was supposed to generate a positive image of them had lead to widespread negativity and mass arrests of the policemen by the judiciary and national guards. 

A mass national wide search started for Robbie's whereabouts. But even after an extensive search, Robbie was not found again and it was never clear as to who took him and what the objective behind such arduous kidnapping was. It looked as if he had disappeared from the face of the earth, making him a hot topic of discussion and a question on the law enforcement's capabilities. 

2 years later...

While investigating a fire in East Yorkshire, the local police found Robbie in a mental asylum, babbling nonsense and eating dirt. When enquired, the doctors said that Robbie was thrown in front of their asylum by some masked people in an ambulance and they found 2 letters with him. One contained a login and password to an offshore bank account and there were instructions on it, instructing them to transfer the 3 million dollars in the account to their accounts for their personal use and to keep the guy hidden from the world and untreated. The other letter contained a link to a site encrypted by a password and addressed to Sam Koel, to be delivered if Robbie was ever found out by the authorities.

Sam Koel or Sammy as called by all, Robbie's best friend, came to the asylum immediately when he learned of his friend's current condition. He was able to confirm that it was a site developed by a mutual friend and was used by Robbie to contact his informants. Luckily he knew the password.
After entering it, they saw it was just a puzzle of triangles within triangles, which was really puzzling. Everyone looked at Sammy, hoping that he might know something but their inquisitive gazes met a confused look on Sammy's face. They all realized that even he didn't know about this and looked back at the screen. Sammy, on the other hand, relaxed the moment everyone turned their face away. He had recognized the meaning of the image but didn't reveal it to others. He feigned ignorance and excused himself. Nobody questioned him further as everyone in England knew that Sam Koel, the winner of the best businessman of the year, was a busy man. But he still came rushing the moment he heard of Robbie's location and condition. Everyone present there was impressed by the friendship of Robbie and Sammy and didn't stop Sammy from leaving. This case was not theirs to handle. This was a high profile case and will be handed over to the newly created Police control squad, reporting directly to the judiciary.

After coming out, he went to a nearby phone booth and rang a number. After the phone rang, he cut it after the 1st ring. After doing it for 2 more times, on his 4th attempt, he waited till the phone rang 3 times. Someone picked it up and asked, "Did they really find me? Can I come back now? Please help me."

Sammy started in a solemn voice, "Is this Quinlan?" The voice on the other end literally exclaimed with joy, "Sammy, it's me, Robbie. I am Quinlan now. Is this really happening?" 

Sammy said with a very troubled voice, "Yes it is all real Robbie. They have found you. I don't know where you are but don't reveal yourself now. I really don't know anything about your so-called return. Let me look into this and call you back". Sammy then immediately disconnected the call. [Looks like I need to get to the bottom of this. Just what the hell Robbie got involved in this time], Sammy thought and sighed.

There are stories shrouded in layers of mystery and myth, but there are legends which should never come out as sometimes myths are unconfirmed truths.....

Robbie was a simple man and wanted a simple life but never thought he will become a part of a secret World.... a world of power, danger and supernatural magic.....

Kaito felt something was wrong. 

The female patient witnessed Kaito take down a man with ease and manged to be unscathed yet there was no fear in her eyes

"Are you okay, oh, I should've made a precise index"

Kaito asked with a gentle voice before questioning his decisions however he regretted it as the woman had a sudden flash of joy that was reflected from her smile. She smiled along with a flush of pink.

Her right arm flailed to Kaito as if suggesting him to move closer. Kaito looked at the man before glancing back the female patient. 

'The police already want to capture me and if I managed to by pass this 'renowned security' I would be hunted like a chicken, something that can only struggle before being killed.'

Copycats are the norm however no one is that dumb to copy Kaito...right? With his mask being the trademark any investigator or police officer would know him.

Kaito exhaled and placed some tables, chairs, vases that he found in the room before proceeding to place them atop The Crude Artist.

He saw a glorious mountain that seemed to be on the verge of falling apart and an imaginative light bulb appeared above Kaito's head as he thought of something. He picked a stool from the mountain, placing it next to the girl's bed he sat down and waited for the girl's instruction.

She did nothing but stare at Kaito for a whole minute. Kaito didn't know why but her eyes felt penetrating, seeing all his secrets. It was odd for Kaito but as he returned the stare the girl looked away. 

Despite the patient's mature face her childish smile betrayed her. He broke the silence as he spoke

"So, how was your day?"

Kaito's attempt to break away from the awkwardness was unsuccessful as the girl remained silent. It was sudden but the girl suddenly shed a tear. 

A single tear for no reason?

Her voice was meek but you could hear the quivering originating from it. She wiped away her tear and beckoned Kaito to pickup a white board and a marker.

As Kaito walked to get the whiteboard, out of the corner of his eyes he noticed the girl place something next to her ear. 

'How odd'

Kaito gave the girl the whiteboard and saw what she wanted to do

"My day was good, are we introducing ourselves?" the girl wrote on the board 

"Oh what do you want to know about me"

The girl took a minute and scribbled on the board in a clear format

"Name: Mallory... you don't need to know the rest
Age: It's rude to ask a woman... 27
Birthday: You'll find out... maybe
Ph. No: 911- or not
Favorite Drama Series: Hi** Society"

"Oh, so your's name Mallory... your 27 an-"

As he pronounced Mallory's age she took back the whiteboard.

Kaito could hear a short hum from Mallory and saw her attempting to flail the board but only managed to moved it up and then dropping it. 

The hum was presumably supposed to be a 'hmph' while the board was supposed to hit Kaito on the head. Kaito presented by this active girl felt quite playful.  He snatched the board from her against her will as he watched her pout and look away from him

"It's a maybe? Well, okay. 911? That would be impressive and all but I wouldn't want to go the wrong line. Hi Society... is pretty good. Was it the calculating man and rich girl?"

The gir- lady moved her index fingers up and down to ask for the board and wrote a short message on the board

"Pfff, you know nothing about this series. It is by far the greatest. I dare you, tomorrow come back here again. You better introduce yourself. 

I'm not that dumb to know what your doing."

When Kaito read the last line he instantly understood the bad feeling he had when the woman stared at him

'She knew'

It was quite pitiful, to protect her he is now being blackmailed. 

This was a subtle reminder to Kaito

'The losers or the dead will only be the dead and never remembered while the winners can continue winning and not suffer. Blackmail is... can't say I haven't done it'

Kaito now understood his victim's feelings when they got blackmailed back on Earth. To cry and let out your sorrows but you have no tears to cry.

Kaito wrote in the same format as the lady

"Name: The Blue Pierrot....my real name is (he left it blank)
Age: 9+10=21 no, 17 turning 18
Birthday: It shouldn't be celebrated
Ph. No: If I don't give you this, you'll probably call the police ***-****-***
Favorite Drama Series: Nun or as people pronounce it none"

The lady wrote next to what The Blue  Pierrot wrote

"Hello blank, your not a funny clown which is pretty sad
Gud Math...damn young people
I...? Why not? 
How'd you know? Give me a moment
I'm...not sure if this is sarcasm or an actual show, probably sarcasm"

As Kaito read the board he saw the lady bring out a phone underneath her pillow and dial a number.
Kaito felt a vibration in his pants (Guys or girls or thing...calm down) he pulled out his phone and it was an unknown number. He looked back to the girl and answered the phone

"Hello."

Kaito could hear his voice from the lady's phone. He heard a notification go off from his phone, it was a text

"You weren't lying?"

Kaito chuckled at her response 

"How much trust do you have- that is a bad question to ask, oh well."

Kaito left the room with The Crude Artist but his voice still lingered 

"Text me when it's late to watch the drama... can you tell the receptionist on the floor to let me in. Sweet Dreams"

 The girl felt upset from her bad hearing at the beginning but the last words she heard from Kaito made it up

As Kaito left he could a hear the high pitch scream coming across the hallway. 

...

"Ha~~, your, doing, not too, bad, rookie,"

The receptionist at the police station appeared listless as she rested her head against the counter and took short pauses when talking

"There, there, come on, talk it all out. I'm here for you"

Kaito did feel a bit guilty as he realized he could've planned ahead and gave Andrea another sister but it was poor planning. 

"He...he. He rejected me. And it was even from a text. I thought I could change myself for him but it made it worse when I asked what I could do. He said he had a girlfriend. Wuwuwu" 

As the receptionist sulked at her misfortune she managed to give the reward money to Kaito via bank. 

....

"Investigator Gin, great work once again. Oh, what are you looking at."

Investigator Gin sighed as he placed down a stack of paper and took a quick sip 

"It's this new guy. His only name is Kaito. No last name is pretty normal but that's not the strangest thing of this man. Earliest citations of this man originated 2 years ago from The South. I suspect he may be one of those Monsters but it is nothing more than a hypothesis"

The police officer exclaimed an 'oh' with surprise and asked Gin to continue his story

"He has been skipping a class in a school for a couple of weeks. I'm quite surprise no one took notice of this. Man, kids these days. He may have a relationship to The Blue Pierrot. In many alleyways we'll find a card with a 'joker' while Kaito would bring in the culprit that would half of the time match the evidence."

"But the most important part is that he owned a bar. For 4 weeks he disappeared while his Bar was destroyed. And the reason I brought this up is because the company that attacked the Bar was the company that The Blue Pierrot committed a massacre."

The police officer focused on Investigator Gin's last point and felt it was very valid

"How old?"

"Only 17"

"If he's The Blue Pierrot then your first hypothesis is... most likely to be true. If it is true we have a lot of studying and reporting to do"

With a sigh he exited the room in order to avoid more work and responsibilities while Investigator Gin sighed for a different reason

The protagonist, Kaito discards his last name to embrace a new life and rid of the misfortune he has cause. 4 unfortunate deaths surround him just for living. With the whisper of a clown and the teachings of his master this could have been avoided, so why did you kept quiet?

With the death of his master he rejects his humanity with the alluring voice of the Pierrot "Receive power at the cost of mortality" "is it your humanity that refuses to accept?" "Take it". The laughter of insanity, chuckle of madness and the echo of a lunatic. 

Watch as he dons a mask to hide his emotions only to eventually shed the false veil of cruelty. Witness his acceptance of the truth.

Note: Hiatus. Mainly because there isn't any readers so see ya for a year?

Not to mention that their body is still in such a close distance until her skin touch Nan Shen skin! She would die if they stay like this for long.
"Just wait until Lan Yanjin goes to find you" Nan Shen tighten his grip on Tan Hua waist making the girl's heart beats faster than ever. 
Why the heck they need to wait until Lan Yanjin was gone?! Is he a sort of murderer or something that they need to hide from him??
"Believe me he will do something to you if I left you alone with him. You know he has a feeling for you right?" Nan Shen stared at Tan Hua eyes trying to convince her. He knew that Lan Yanjin would somehow try to make a move on Tan Hua when they arrived at a deserted place.
"...fine let's wait for him to no first" Tan Hua sighed seeing that Nan Shen very likely won't let her go. She actually had a feeling that Lan Yanjin might do something to her since this maze isn't crowded so there's no harm in obeying Nan Shen.
While Tan Hua was hiding with Nan Shen waiting for Lan Yanjin to go away, Lan Yanjin himself was talking with serious tone over the phone.
"You say that Nan Shen offers business cooperation and will share Luvré brand with our company?" Lan Yanjin raised his eyebrow after listening to what his right-hand man said. 
That Nan Shen who always looked like a mad dog every time he saw him now want to offer a business contract? Isn't this obviously suspicious?! 
"Yes, boss but young master Nan want you to meet him face to face to talk about this else he will cancel the offer" Lan Yanjin's right-hand man wiped his sweats carefully as he told his boss about every information he got from Nan Shen's personal secretary, Wu Yin. 
"Tell him I'm in London now how the hell I can meet him face to face" Lan Yanjin grunted in dissatisfaction. He indeed was tempted with the offer of sharing Luvré Brand permission to open a new branch under his company name but still…
He couldn't believe Nan Shen would want to share his money tree. Tan Hua would soon be able to make her own company and thus even though she will still give a right to Nan Shen Company to open a new branch of her brand…
Tan Hua would probably already able to produce the clothes on her own, not needing Nan Shen company's help anymore. If this the case won't it be hard to get Tan Hua under his company?
What Tan Hua need was resources since she didn't have the money to get that yet but she would obtain it soon. Very soon. 
That's why if he wants to get another contract like Nan Shen….maybe being an investor for Tan Hua brand...Nan Shen offer was worth considering!
"But boss….young master Nan says he is busy so he couldn't wait for you to come back...he also won't go to London" The man over the phone fearfully conveyed what Wu Yin said. 
Little did he know it's just a bluff. Nan Shen knew Lan Yanjin won't go back from London soon just because of this. Even though the offer was really tempting, by nature, Lan Yanjin won't believe him.
"What's with that condition?! This Nan Shen just wants to show off that he has a contract with that brand right?! Don't call me anymore! That man just want to provoke me!" Lan Yanjin was huffing and puffing as he turned off his phone almost throwing it away out of anger.
That Nan Shen...he just want to show off and give a reminder that Tan Hua would forever have a relationship with his company huh?! Just wait until Tan Hua fell in love with him...Nan Shen...that man won't have anything left! 
"So Tan Hua…" Lan Yanjin was all smile as he went back to the centre of the three junctions only to find an empty place without Tan Hua figure to be seen.
??!! 
"Tan Hua?!" Lan Yanjin face went pale as he looked around and shouted trying to call Tan Hua. His heart almost explode on the spot when he saw Tan Hua was nowhere to be seen!
Just where is she?! He already told her not to go anywhere...wait don't tell him that girl already went ahead leaving him behind?! 
"Let's call her" Lan Yanjin face was red from the panic but he still could think calmly. He immediately pressed Tan Hua contact number in his phone that he just got from the girl herself.
Hearing Lan Yanjin shout, Tan Hua couldn't help but look at Nan Shen with worry in her eyes. Did they really have to be this dramatic? It's quite fun but it's cheesy! 
"Hand me your phone, now!" Nan Shen had a feeling that Lan Yanjin would try to call Tan Hua to ask her where the hell she was but if Tan Hua's phone ring... won't they be found out?! 
No his plan to separate Tan Hua and Lan Yanjin was already perfect he couldn't fail now!
"Here" Tan Hua quickly gave her phone to Nan Shen but at the same time, her phone vibrated.
!! A phone call!

Chapter 226. Two similar shows (2)
"Long Lu, what are you watching? Tomorrow we have our final exam! Quickly start studying!"
In a four-person dormitory room, four girls were sitting in front of a desk, each of them holding a book in their hands. 
Yet, one of the girls was sneakily playing on her phone instead of studying. Long Lu was the brave girl who dared to play with her phone in such a critical period right before an exam.
It was not like she didn't fear the exams but for her, there was something more important than exams. It was watching her favorite celebrity, the heavenly king.
Although she was wearing a pair of earphones, she was occasionally talking to herself, which was disturbing the other girls.
The girl sitting behind her reached over and lightly hit her head with a book.
"Ouch!! What are you doing? Can't you see I'm watching something?"
Long Lu cried in protest but the other girl refuted her in a fit of anger.
"Can't you see that we are studying for the test? We can't afford to fail it or there will be a makeup test. The professor was already angry with our previous test results."
"Yes, that old man is really scary."
Another girl said, flipping one of the pages of her text book.
"I don't care about that. Today, my favourite celebrity is being featured in the show 'A house date with Meng Meng'."
"That heavenly king!!"
The other girls became excited when they heard that it was a show featuring a heavenly king.
All people have some little interest in a celebrity that has been titled as one of the heavenly kings of the Chinese entertainment industry. 
That's why, the other girls flocked around Long Lu and started watching the broadcast, forgetting that they have exams tomorrow.
On the screen, a man wearing some casual clothes was sitting on a sofa, his demeanor elegant and refined. He was talking to a cute, short girl sitting in front of him.
She was obviously Meng Meng who had a smile on her face as she talked to the heavenly king.
The girls watched with some interest but soon, they felt that the questions being asked to the heavenly king were childish and there was nothing new. 
The screen soon changed and the camera showed the viewers a glimpse of the heavenly king's home. 
It was magnificent and grandeur like expected. It was like the home of a prince or a king. 
"Can you zoom in?"
One of the girls tried to zoom in but she accidentally opened the live comments section.
There were already more than thousands comments on it and several comments will envelope the screen every second. It was too rapid!!
-Wow!! The house is really too big.
-As expected of the house of a heavenly king.
-Is it just me or the show getting boring? For the past thirty minutes, we are only hearing praises of the heavenly king.
-It's not just you. I think the same too.
-You people should not watch it if you think like that. Don't slender Meng Meng.
-We aren't slandering anybody.
"The comment's section is really heated!" 
Long Lu exclaimed as she read all the comments. She felt that some people were slandering the heavenly king but it was just because she was his fan.
"Well, I think that the show is getting boring."
One of the girls said while the one who had earlier hit Long Lu with a book chimed in.
"Yes, I watched earlier episodes of it and the show only works because of the host cute expressions."
"The format is something that will get boring for the viewers soon."
The third girl added.
The thoughts of the three girls were practically the same and Long Lu couldn't help but glare at them.
"You three can't see the male god sitting there. Isn't that enough for the show to be running?"
"Only you think like that."
"You are talking like that because he's your favorite celebrity. You should come out of your decision."
"I don't want to keep watching just to hear his praises. Look, the comment section is getting more violent."
One of the girls said as she pointed at the comments appearing on the screen. The other girls focused on the screen.
-I can't watch more.
-I thought it would be exciting since there's a heavenly king appearing but….
-All of you people should go to sleep if you think like that.
-Yes, don't watch the show.
-We are just writing down our thoughts. No need to get aggressive.
-Hey guys!! Change the channels and watch A celebrity daily life!! There's something unexpected going on in that show.
Even though the show was boring, it was still featuring the heavenly king. The number of fans of a heavenly king are a force to reckon with.
The people who were speaking negative about the show were soon kicked out but one of the comments interested the four girls.
"What type of show is A celebrity daily life?"
One of the girls who don't know about the show asked and Long Lu answered her.
"It's a show similar to A house date with Meng Meng."
One of the girls told her about the format of the show and how it was similar to A house date with Meng Meng.
"Aren't the two the same?"
"From what I know, Meng Meng's show is younger. It's the copy probably."
"They have just changed the format a little."
"Yes. Look, many people are recommending ``A celebrity daily life in the comments."
Long Lu pointed to the comments section and the other girls also stared at it.
-Recommending A celebrity daily life!!
-You will miss it if you keep watching this.
-I am going. You all should go too.
-Why are people recommending another show here? 
-I'm also thinking about that.
--You should watch A celebrity daily life and you will understand.
"Maybe we should change the channels too?"
"Yes, Long Lu, change the channel to SKB. Let's see what it is all about."
"OK."
Long Lu changed the channels and the screen changed to out of a dojo.
"Dammit! What's this?"
The four girls couldn't help but exclaim in surprise when they saw the screen.

GENIUS 196:
Standing in front of the Su Villa, Daniella held Selena's hand. In the background, Anders and Matthew were putting the girl's luggage in the trunk of the car. 
Selena, Matthew and Anders will be flying to London, they will stay there for as long as the little girl wanted. 
Daniella knew very well that after some days Selena will be back. The girl wouldn't survive the weather in London, it's always raining and cold something Selena hated. 
Daniella has been giving Selena advises since they woke up. The girl will start homeschooling in London as she didn't want to be in a school where she's not familiar with. 
"You need to be careful Selena," Daniella said in a serious tone but her eyes were shining with worries like a mother looking at her daughter that was about to leave. 
Selena smirked, she was glad that Daniella was always worried about her as it only means she cared for her. Her hand holdings hers were so warm, she knew she will miss it but she wanted to leave and experience living abroad, away from her family. 
She knew that she won't have all the maids to take care of her, but her mind knew that it will be great since she will learn how to be dependent. 
Daniella could read the thoughts running in Selena's head. She smiled genuinely, it was not even a year since she came into her life but the girl has changed and it's a good kind of change. 
Selena's clothes were all normal, even her grades. Seemed like transferring Selena's favourite teacher to another school has made the girl focus on her grades. 
"Don't forget your jacket and don't wear thin clothes. Its winter right now so always wear a sweater," even though her mind was asking her to shut up, her lips moved to say what her heart wanted to tell. 
Selena rolled her eyes yet a smile she could not hold flashed on her lips. 
"I will can I go now?" 
Daniella nodded but she didn't let her hands go, "if an old man asks for your number you should call the police." 
Hearing that, Selena's face went poker. 
"But if it's young and cute, then get his address and phone number." 
And with those words, Selena's face brightened up. 
Daniella's lips formed a lopsided grin, then she continued, "then call the police and give them the boy's number and address." 
A loud laugh rang out of Daniella's lips as she watched Selena's face screwed up, disappointed. 
Her hand lifted in the air and messed her air. She knew she will miss Selena but right now, she has more important things to do. Evan was gone, he went abroad for a business trip, and she wanted to use this time to make sure that Roman Lee wouldn't betray her. 
Matthew came closer to them and smiled at Daniella. The woman has changed the whole house, it's no longer the cold and empty house like he remembered it to be now with her around, he felt as if the place has become as beautiful as her. 
He stretched a hand and held her arm, he pulled her closer for a hug but froze in the middle. 
How could this happen? Why can his cousin be so lucky to have her in his life, he suddenly thought. 
He lived with her, they were so close yet her feelings were not in the house they used to live together. 
He sighed and let her hands go, he wished he could switch life with Evan. He will not mind if he needed to work his ass off in the office as long as he has a woman like Daniella waiting for him at home. 
"Uncle, she's getting married to your cousin so please stop staring at her." 
Matthew blinked by the sarcastic remark he heard from Selena. He switched his sight to the little girl and found her glaring at him. 
Embarrassed, Matthew scratched his hair and looked at Daniella with guilty eyes. 
"It's alright," she said in a soft tone and hearing that has made his heart throbbed in pain. 
Why? He asked himself. Why did she change herself for Evan? Who would be foolish enough to change yourself for someone you love. 
He lamented, right there and then he got his answer. 
If it was him, he would also change his life for Daniella. But it's too late. 
No, it's not too late. She had never given him a chance in the first place. There was no 'them' to begin with. So, too late was not the word that described the situation he was in.  
He never believed in fate, but right now his mind wanted to believe that it existed since Evan found Daniella and just like magnets the two stay attached together since the time they met. 
"UNCLE!!!"  
Matthew's face wrinkled by the voice that yelled in his ear. He felt as if someone hit a bong near his ears, his whole body shook by the loudness of her voice. 
Immediately, his hand scratched his ear. Slowly regretting that he offered to bring her to London. They haven't left and his ears almost got destroy, what will happen to him now that she will stay with him in the house? 
He gulped hard, his situation suddenly sunk in his mind.  
"Let's go," he said in a weak voice before he changed his mind and leave the place without his niece. The last person he wanted to disappoint was Selena. If his parents found out that Selena, the girl who's loved by everyone cry because of him, they will bury him alive next to his cousin Nathan's grave. 
After Matthew and Selena left, Daniella took out her phone and dialled Evan's number. 
Shortly, he answered and hearing his voice has made her lips stretched in a smile. 
"They are gone. What's your plan today?" 
As she spoke, her feet walked back in the house. Her smile, as clear and bright as the sun in the sky has made all the maids and guards around smile. 
"I am in a meeting right now. Is there something wrong?" 
Daniella shook her head as if Evan was in front of her. 
When the phone call ended, Evan's face became serious. He shoved his phone in his front pocket and took in a long sighed, the pain slowly throbbed his head. 
Rolling the sleeves of his polo, Evan turned around. His face was just as gloomy as the cloudy in the sky. It's raining heavily in the south where he was in, and he went there for one purpose. That was to check who was the person living in the address he got from Mark's pocket from when he was attacked. And there he found a man living in a house full of photos of Daniella's mother. 
He left straight away and went to finish the meeting. When he entered his hotel room, he found the man with a solemn expression waiting for him. 
He looked straight at the man in front of him while next to him was a table full of Daniella's mother's photos. He walked closer to him and picked up one of the photos. It was a picture of the man in front of him next to Daniella's mother. She had a white dress on her, simple but it showed her real beauty. 
He gulped hard as he thought of Daniella. 
"Her mother wore that dress in our wedding," the man spoke, sadness and grief made his voice broke. 
Then he stretched a hand and picked up the bag on the flood. He opened it and pulled out the same wedding dress that Alexandria was wearing in the photo. 
"I understand that you are getting married to my daughter so I would like her to wear this dress." 
He pursed his lips. He had just finished his meeting and when he went back to his office he found a man in his fifties nearly bald and face full of wrinkled wrinkles in his office  
"Are you her father?" 
The man smiled at him. It looked genuine but a small fear was staring to arise inside of Evan. 
"I am not against your relationship with my daughter Evan but there's something I need to show you. And there's one thing I will ask you to do before marrying my daughter." 
Evan's eyes narrowed, fear arose in his chest as he waited for him to continue. 
"My name is Arthur Schmidt and yes, I am Daniella's real father," Arthur paused to take a breath, "I have been following Daniella since my wife – her mother, left me." 
Evan has so many questions, but there's one important question that has been running in his mind since he got to know about the chip in Daniella's brain. 
"Before you start, answer this," he furrowed his brows as he stared at his eyes, "why did you put the chip in her brain?" 
A guilty look crossed over Arthur's face, it looked so real in Evan's eyes. 
"Daniella's mother was greedy. She wanted our kids to be special and that time we had just successfully installed a chip in a monkey's brain. Our observation showed that the monkey's brain started to think like a normal human so we thought that having that chip in the human's brain will help them become superior." 
Arthur paused, he slammed his butt onto the couch and lay both arms on each of his legs. 
"What does Daniella's mother have to do with it?" Evan asked. 
Arthur elevated his face to look at Evan's eyes, "like I said she was greedy. She has the beauty and she knew that our kids will have her look so she wanted them to be perfect." 
"I went on a trip abroad and when I came back, I found out what she did. So, I brought her to my house, the place you found and locked her up. I wanted to find a way to remove the chip in my kids' brain but Alexandria escaped." 
With everything he heard, Evan decided to sit down. He squeezed his eyes shut his headache worsened. 
"Why did you give me your address?" he asked while massaging his temples. 
Arthur took a sigh, "I saw how Aaron's people tortured your assistant. I couldn't do anything so I waited until they left and put my address into your assistant's pocket." 
"But why?" 
Arthur looked aside, "I have an organization that's helping me to protect my daughter," he gulped hard and nervously folded his hands together, "I have found a way to remove the chip in my daughter's brain after years of research." 
"I want to do it but my daughter has some unfinished business to do." 
"What is it?" Evan asked. 
"She needs to revenge her family's death. I can do it for her, you can do it for her but we both know that our help is not what she wants neither needs" 
Deep inside, Evan agreed to him. God knows how much he had tried helping Daniella but, in the end, she would refuse it and do it in her own way. 
"What do you want from me?" Evan knew that he needed something or else why would he leave his address and be discovered by him if he was living underground as he said. If being discreet was his way to protect his daughter, why would he show himself now? 
But Evan partially understood him, if he was a father, he will do everything to protect his daughter even if it means living alone and watch his daughter from the distance. 
Arthur took in a long sigh before parting his lips, sweat broke in his face, "I need to show you the videos I found in the basement where Daniella was locked in. After watching it you will understand the reason why I gave you my address." 
Arthur took out his phone and showed him one of the videos on his phone. 
Evan's body froze as he watched the scalpel Roman Lee was holding slowly cutting Daniella's skin. Blood overflowed while her tears mixed with her sweat. 
Evan bit his lips so hard until they bleed, the shock has made his eyes widened. He had seen this scene before though it was only an image. It was already painful to see before while kissing Daniella but watching it in a full video, her scream, plead and cry, it was piercing his heart into tiny pieces. 
His hand threw the phone to the wall, it smashed and fell on the ground. He can't, he just can't continue watching it. It was so bad, so gruesome. 
What kind of monster does that to a small kid? How could Roman Lee continue breathing after what he had done? 
Evan's hands clenched into fists, nerves in his neck popped angrily. He looked straight at Arthur's face. 
"I am going to ask you this again. What do you want from me?" 
Arthur secretly smiled, finally, Evan was no longer suspicious to him. 
As he said the reason, Evan's face slowly screwed up.


Been born with a chip in their brains Daniella Chen and her twin brother Danny Chen grew up special. Their pearl round irises had become a door to their emotions, changing colors according on their feelings.

But their suffering didn’t end there, their  bodies recovered faster than that of an average human this  ignited the greed of Roman Lee to know more about their bodies.   

As the family moved on and tried to forget the traumatic pain, faith decided to give them another reason to shed tears.   

On the twin's 16th birthday an explosion occurred in  their house. A lot of things happened that night, flakes of snow from the sky dropped leisurely on the ground, the fire burning their house and the bullets raining from the sky.
