Bound By Love And Betrayal(Ongoing)

Chapter 5

As they met with Michael, Alex could see the skepticism in his brother's eyes. But he also saw a glimmer of hope.

"Michael, we need your help," Alex said, his voice low and urgent. "We're in deep, and we can't get out without your assistance, I need you to help..please."

Michael looked at Alex and the desperation on his face Michael was skeptical at first but he thought about it and agreed to help his brother. "Fine." Michael nodded, his expression grim. "I'm in. What do you need me to do?"

Sophia smiled, a look of relief washing over her face. "We need you to dig up everything you can on The Syndicate. We need to know their secrets, their weaknesses, absolutely everything about them we need all the info we can get Michael."

Michael nodded. "I'll do it. But you have to promise me one thing."

Alex raised an eyebrow. "What's that?"

Michael's eyes locked onto his. "You have to promise me you'll be careful. The Syndicate isn't to be trifled with. They'll stop at nothing to silence you."

Alex nodded, his jaw clenched in determination. "I promise. We'll be careful, very careful."

As they parted ways, Alex couldn't shake the feeling that they were running out of time. The Syndicate was closing in on them, and they needed to move fast if they wanted to survive.

Over the next few days, Michael dug up everything he could on The Syndicate. He discovered their secrets, their weaknesses, and their plans.

And what he found shocked him to his core.

"Alex, we need to talk," Michael said, his voice low and urgent.

Alex's heart racing, he followed Michael to a secluded spot.

"What is it?" Alex asked, his eyes locked onto his brother's.

Michael's expression was grim. "The Syndicate is planning something big. Something that could bring down the entire city."

Alex's eyes widened in shock. "What is it?"

Michael's voice was barely above a whisper. "They're planning a heist. A heist that could give them control over the entire city, We need to stop them."
