'They said that no profit is much sweeter than the one that comes from deception. I guess it's true, for his eyes said it all. The pleasure, glee, satisfaction, and fulfillment were all manifested in his eyes'

'The man I care about the most in this world, the reason I worked hard and achieved everything I have now, it hurts seeing them resort to this kind of scheme against me like I'm some tools to be discarded after doing what I'm asked to do. I always think that schemes are tools necessary to achieve for a reason. I put them above anything and loved them to the point of losing myself in the process where I don't dare to think about how it feels to be carefree like people of my age usually do. I sacrificed my youth for them, hahaha It's me whos a fool, they didn't ask me to at first, but it's me who initiated to work for them, but that's the damn reason why I'm here, waiting for them to asked me but seeing them asked for my life even though I already spend most of it for them is the most difficult business proposal I received, but I don't have a choice anyway, It's a losing transaction, but at least they're happy.'

"Da-dad" A woman wearing a black stretched blazer with nothing inside and pants that make her look appealing if she were confidently standing, but all of it was just simple clothing that couldn't block the now deeply bullet in her heart.

That woman is named Calypso, a highly influential businesswoman famous for being a prodigy at the age of 22 and undaunted in every way. She established her own company with her blood and sweat and managed to make it flourish and became one of the forces to be reckoned with globally.

In the end, a bird that flies young will eventually fall and so she fell, Calypso fell from being a prodigy and undaunted to a pitiful creature that no one in the whole world would dare to think.

She's bathing in her blood while staring at the two men in front of her, their expressions pierced her heart and hurt more than the actual bullet inside her heart. They are in delight while watching her bathed in her blood.

"Oh, Calypso, my ever so genius daughter, thanks for the hard work, Let me and your brother take it from here, rest well!" The middle-aged man said while holding a glass of champagne given by his son earlier

"Thanks for the gift, Elder sister." The young man said

After hearing those words, Calypso's eyes slowly closed, and her vision darkened. Seeing this happening, the two men instantly changed their expressions.

"Help!!" shouted the young man while hysterically running outside the office to inform all the employees of what happened.

After some time, an ambulance came and picked up Calypso's lifeless body on the stretchers and left with her brother in tow, and no more than a few minutes passed, police and investigator came.

"So you were saying that while you three were happily chatting, a bullet penetrated the glass which was supposed to be bulletproof and pierced directly to President Calypso's heart?" The investigator inquired about Calypso's father's claims to make sure that no information deviated from his investigation.

"Yes officer, I hope you could thoroughly investigate what happened, and who dares to do this to my daughter. Money is not an issue and contact and inform me if anything" Her father said while shedding tears in front of the investigator.

"Certainly, this might be shenanigans of a competing company, nothing's new it's a business thing, so I will go first" Seeing the father's grief, the inspector couldn't help much but give him time to grieve for losing a child in front of his eyes.

Seeing the investigator walk away, he wiped his crocodile tears, and his expression turned gruesome. His lips protrude upward while his fingers touch every part of Calypso's office, like checking a speck of dust on each corner until he arrives at the swivel chair and sits on it.
