" Miss Ivee, the goods have arrived." It was Brandon, one of the men I hired for this job. I was watching the city lights from the one-sided mirror of my office here in Colorado. I released another smoke from my cigarette. I almost finished a whole pack waiting for them. Took them long enough. I was pissed.

"You're late. I've been waiting for hours." I spatted dangerously. I can almost feel Brandon shivering from the tone of my voice. I turned the swivel chair towards him. 

" I'm sorry Ma'am something else happened and we haven't been able to anticipate-" I stood up quickly and kicked him in the face. Agad naman syang tumilapon sa sahig.

"You know what I hate the most? It's wasting my time." 

I went back sitting in my chair when Robby entered the office. On his back was goons dragging two people with  blindfold and hands tied on their back. He didn't say anything when he saw Brandon sprawled on the floor with busted lips. He knows me well and how my temper works. He even said that I became worst. Well, that's what pain does to a person. 

I signaled my men using my fingers. They pushed the two men in the floor and removed their blindfold as I walk towards them. Brandon gave me a chair in front of them so that I can talk and observe them at the same time. I saw immeasurable fear in their eyes when they saw me. They know what I can do to them. No one escapes in crossing over my business. And they have to pay for that. They can feel it.

"So, I heard that you people have finally grown some guts to actually enter my turf." I smirked. The fear in their eyes was now laced with rage. I laughed when I saw these. 

"So sila pa ang may ganang magalit? That's Bullshit!""

I saw how they are trying to squirm from my men holding them in place. I kicked them in their gut. They both grunt in pain. I am now holding the chair and quickly hit them. I was enraged I have to let it out. They've been messing with me when they perfectly know what I'm capable off. They have some guts and I hate it. I looked at Robby and asked for my gun. 

"I don't think you would want to mess up your new carpet. You said you love it." Still he handed me my Glock 21 Gen 5 handgun. I paused. I remembered that I had just ordered this lovely carpet in my office because the last one was also stained last week by some other goons. Maybe I should find another place to settle this kind of matters.

"Hmmm... Well, I guess you're lucky bastards then." Tumalikod na ako sa kanila akmang aalis nang lumingon ako sa kanila ulit. Without any hesitation, I shot their temple. Fuck it I love my carpet but I'm too pissed off to even care.

"Make sure that my competitors will hear about this. Have the word spread that they've messed up with Ivee." Everyone around me just acknowledge my orders in silence. 

" Miss Ivee the Senior is here." Kara my secretary announced the arrival of my father. 

"Tell him I'll meet him upstairs. It's messy out here." I handed Robby back my gun and made my way out of my office. Before I could fully step out of my office I called my secretary's attention.

"And Kara, have my office cleaned in 20 minutes. Get me the same carpet. Have it delivered today. I have more guest to come." I felt Kara stiffened. She immediately ordered my men in the office to clear up everything. Months of being my secretary and she's still afraid of me. And I love it. I love it when people fear me. 

I went upstairs to meet my father. I know Robby is tailing me from behind with his men. He's been my constant partner eversince I was a kid. He was the son of one of my dad's trusted men. When his father died my father got him and raised him to be my butler. He knows everything about me. I really trust this man. He became my confidante during my "insane years" with Adler.
