CHAPTER 3

  Vegas POV

Previously...

"Khun Kan and you have to help me, otherwise we will all go down with this ship!!!" Big yelled in a crazed and desperate manner. A soon as Big has left the room, I run my hands through my hair in anger, furious at Big's desperate actions. I was even angrier when I learned that that bastard Big had flippantly sent the information to our business rivals without a second thought. Those leaks could end up pointing fingers back at both of us and connecting us all to the corruption, weapon trafficking as well as informing Kinn that I had betrayed him.

"Goddammit!!!" I yelled as the more I go over things in my mind, the more worried I am. That careless bastard, Big! What did I do in my past life to meet an idiot such as him? He always charges in without a second thought. Not forgetting Tawan also acted recklessly, like he had lost his damn mind. This day has been full of people who are trying to frustrate and anger me. For example, back at the warehouse, Tawan had left himself no out and had quickly latched onto someone to join in the blame and that unfortunate soul was me. He taunted that I am living in Kinn's shadow, which is unfortunately true.

I don't think I can lie to Porsche anymore. I would like to confess everything that I have done wrong, but I can only do that in my own words. No matter how bad I am as a person, being with the person I love, I wouldn't last the year. But this current predicament is not that simple as I am not in position where I am able to take responsibility for the things I have done and calmly explain to Porsche. I had almost got to a point where I could start anew with Porsche and yet, now, I had no idea what I should do next...

I am so overwhelmed and infuriated, as it appears I am surrounded by morons. Sooner or later, I will also be in danger because of their actions and in that moment of realization, I lost my senses and self-control...

In frustration, I threw things off the table nearby and onto the floor to vent all the raging emotions swirling inside me.

There are numerous things I have to consider before I make the next step, I feel so disappointed things have turned out this way.

What have I done to be so unlucky in life?

It appears I am doomed to keep making mistakes until the first family finds out...or do I have to sacrifice the one that I love? Trouble lurks around every corner, and I feel the urge to get a knife and cut myself to ease these feelings of torment and unhappiness, to lessen the pain brought on by the realization that after all things are said and done, I really am a person of little significance.

As I said before, what can a person like me achieve with a dad like mine? Everything is wrong from the start. They are all stupid and I feel like a complete waste of space. It is with this thought I continue to throw things around, when suddenly...

I haven't turned on my computer all yesterday and today, so why does it feel as though it has been on just before I came here?

I take a deep breath and use my hands to go over the computer as I looked around the room, looking over and taking everything in in detail and realize many things are out of place from the papers that have been roughly tidied, which is impossible as I keep my space perfect organized. The individuals working with me on the easement have been working here for quite some time so they know how I like documents to be stored and kept. This is not what is making me suspicious.

However, even though door onto the balcony is closed and locked as normal, I start to glance from side to side as I am sure someone has snuck into my room without my consent. If luck were on their side, they would have been able to get out in time, but if it weren't then they are currently trapped somewhere in this room, hidden somewhere close by.
