Third Person's POV

A man with his fine suit enters the lobby. Behind the eyeglass he wears is a cold and emotioneless eye for everyone. The eyes are all his. All of the people bows down their head as he passed by.

Sino nga ba ang di nakakakilala sa kanya. To finish the speculations, No one. Walang tao ang di nakakakilala sa kanya.

He's Christian Vince Rey Alcantara. The fallen man who rises again more than he was used to be.

Maraming nag-akala na sa oras na bumagsak siya ay di na siya makakabalik pa. But no. Hangang salita na nga lang siguro 'yon.

From the looks of it right now, talagang malabo ang hinala nila. Mali ang hinala nila. Mali ang akala nila. Mali ang plano nila. The disaster strengthen him more than anyone could be. The events made him the monster he is right now.

No one dares to go on his way. Cause one wrong move and you will be out of sight. That is him. And no one can change that.

Pero wala nga ba?

Matapos dumaan sa mata ng mga tao, agad naman siyang dumiretso sa elevator at saka pinindot ang ika dalawampung palapag kung saan naroroon ang opisina niya.

He unbuttoned his vest and the first three buttons of his polo revealing his chest. Its still 7:30 in the morning at nagwa-warm up pa lang ang mga tao sa paligid niya but no not him. After he took a sip on his vodka ang laptop agad ang inatupag niya.

He's working bone to bone. sweat to sweat. blood to blood. He barely thinks about himself that he doesn't care to what's happening. He only cares for his company, His work, His posessions, and to the one's he protects.

Is she one of them?

No one knows. Cause what everyone knows is that Vince is far from Vernon. The old him. Same face, same first name, but different him.

Sa tingin ng iba iisa lang sila pero hindi, magkaiba sila. Vernon is a selfish,coward bastard but Vince... no one yet knows...

30 minutes had passed pero wala pa ring nagbabago sa ginagawa niya, He's been busy typing all the reports and plans that he must do for the sake of his company.

Maya-maya naman ay pumasok ang secretary niya.

Chris' POV

"Goodmorning" I focus my eyes on the laptop screen in front of me, not wasting a single second to look at her.

"Your today's schedule sir" She just placed it on my table not attempting to disturb me on my work.

I scanned the report once again.
Its all fine. No wrongs, No worries.
I took a look at my schedule today.

8:00 a.m. -meeting with the board
10:30 a.m. - meeting with Mr.Davidson
11:30 a.m.- meeting with Mr.Son (Son's Cargo shipment)
12:30 a.m.- Lunch meeting with Mr. Villaflor
1:30 p.m. -Site inspection (Tagaytay)
4:30 p.m.- Opening Conference with Aragon Empire.
6:30- Dinner with the Aragon's

-That's all Mr. Alcantara

I sighed looking at those meetings. Its already eight, I should be heading to the board room right now. The board members found their silence as I enter the room. The meeting started.

"The sales this month are much more higher than the last one. Nothing to be afraid of, Mr. Alcantara , The Zhion's market failed in attempting to reach our market. Our empire is still the greatest Mr. Alcantara." The board claps their hand looking at me, waiting for me to say something.

But instead I just stood up and left the room.

"The meeting is adjourned" My secretary said.

It is not the first time, I walk out without saying anything. Kaya nasanay na sila.

I got my phone and called Kier.

"Bossing! Anong ganap?" I just hissed on the way he answered me.

"Prepare the area. Call Dylan. I'll be there on 30 minutes" I ordered and hang up the call.

I got my car keys and drove it to the UC

3 years had passed.

napakaraming nagbago.

may mga buhay din na nawala.

Venice's life, Veronica's life, and even mine...

Humigpit ang hawak ko sa manubela ng sasakyan nang maalala ko lahat ng nangyari noon. Lahat ng nangyari noon na kagagawan nila.

Three years ago that war had began. A war not just by business but by family. He killed them. They killed Max and Veronica, and even tried to kill Jace.

They left nothing but pain. Hindi ko hahayang manalo sila sa pagkakataon na ito. They won last time but not now.

I won't let her brother win. Never. Not again.

They took away all of them. I can't let that to happen again. Business or not. Never.

Third Person's POV

"Neil, Nakahanda na ba lahat?" Tanong ng matanda sa assistant nitong binata.

"Yes po Sir, nakahanda na po lahat" The old man smiled at his assistant.

"Well done, Neil" The old man cannot help but smile. Things will get too complicated kapag hindi pa siya makikialam. Kaya he has no choice but to be a part of the scene. He needs to finished all the things that should be done before.

Kailangan niyang itama ang mga pagkakamaling nagawa ng kapatid niya. Kailan niyang tapusin ang awaysa dalawang pamilya para malaman ang totoong kalaban.

Gusto man niyang manahimik at huwag makialam at gawin na lang ng sarilinan ang pagtalo sa kalaban ay di niya pa rin magawa.

He doesn't know who the enemy is...

What he knows is that the two families shouldn't be the one whose killing each other. There is another one. Another one enemy whose laughing right now, while watching them.

And he can't afford to know that.

They should win this. Cause they deserved to.

All of them were believing the greatest lie of the story. The lies that was fed to them by the great enemy. Case 00 is not just a business. It is something.

"Time to do our part Neil, we're running out of time."

I have the truth with me. I just hope nothing gets wrong with my plan. They should live the life they deserve to have.
