Earl's P.O.V.

Sometimes they say revenge is a food best served cold. Others say it's best to leave vengeance to God. But I believe revenge is better when it's something totally unexpected.

I kept my eyes fixed on the man whom I called my father, watching as he paced to and fro in the space between his office desk and chair, giving orders through his phone to the manager working at our company branch in London.

They had sent down some goods all the way from China and it had been delivered to London where those goods had been wrapped and sealed and put on a ship to be imported over here in New York. But the ship which carried those goods never made it to the docks as everything including the ship, were sabotaged by pirates and taken to japan. The only thing spared was the crew who had managed to escape the attack on dinghies and made it to shore on a small country.

I smiled knowingly as I thought of the arrangements I had made to make sure that everything went accordingly as I had planned beforehand.

This was only the beginning.

I watched as father stopped pacing around before slamming his phone to the table in an irritated manner.

"Fuck!" He sat down on his chair and held his hands to his head , his face filled with anger. " Those car parts were all brought on a loan and were to be used to start constructing our latest car model and now it's all fucking gone."

"Calm down father. How were they supposed to know pirate ships would be lurking around besides I did suggest we send those goods by air." I crossed my legs and leaned back on the chair I was seated on, bringing my hand to my jaw stroking it slowly as I reveled in his breakdown.

"Don't you fucking tell me to calm down boy. I spent millions of dollars on those parts," he seethed.

"Forgive me father. What do you suggest we do now? A lot of our shareholders have already started withdrawing their money or selling their stocks out. The board-members also recently requested to have a meeting to briefed on why none of our supposed projects ever took flight," I kept a stoic expression as I accessed him. He held his head with his hands which were on top of his desk, obviously cracking his head on what to do.

"Oh to hell with those fuckers. As if they gave two shits about what ever goes on here." He snickered as he pulled his hands from his head and sat upright on his office chair to look at me.

"That's quite delusional if you ask me."

"Screw what you think then. There's only one option left now," He looked at me nervously now.

I knew what he was about to say. It was all going according to plan. I almost wanted to smirk at how swimmingly everything was coming along now but instead I raised up one of my eyebrows in confusion as if to say 'what' seeing as he no other available options left in his circle.

"What's that?" I asked.

"el diablo negro"(The black devil)

Bingo.

I left the office after finalizing up some business work for today. After that I told my secretary to forward all my business calls to voicemail. Ever since the day I scolded her poor work ethics she's been working like a woman on high caffeinated cheap drugs. She's so lucky I didn't fire her crazy ass.
