The Journey of Starla Love

Past Parents Daniel

I started to blame him and scream at him.

'Where did you go?'

My eyes began to fill with anger. But I don't want to let tears come down from my eyes.

'You're supposed to protect them, aren't you? I always see you being close to them. Where are you today Simon?' ask again.

'Master Dan.' he said in a soft voice.

He seemed to be aware of the pain and the reason I was yelling at him.

'If you realize, I haven't been here in weeks. Mr. John asked me to take care of an important business that he entrusted only to me to do. I just got back now when I heard the bad news.' Simon said.

Simon was right, I didn't realize he was gone. Maybe I just want to blame her and spill all my emotions. I became so irrational.

'You must know something Simon. Tell me, please. I need you to find out who did this.' I said.

Simon seemed to gulp down his saliva and looked towards the company staff who were there with me as well.

'The company will be closed from now on. You don't have to work from tomorrow' Simon said.

'What?' everyone said in a voice that sounded surprised. 'Will the company be closed? Young Master Daniel is the sole heir. So he had to take over his parents' company when he was old enough later.' said the manager, and the crowd of other company staff also agreed.

I don't care about the legacy or the company. But it was all my Papa and Mama's hard work, their dreams, their company and the only thing they left behind and that I have now.

'What are you talking about Simon? Do you want them to shut down the company and just wipe it all out?' my spoken.

'Listen to everything, I have something important that I will say to all of you.' Simon said in a serious manner. 'What we're dealing with right now is very dangerous. If you continue to work in the company, all of you may die and the most important thing is that you must pledge with your loyalty that you will not tell anyone that Young Master Daniel is the son of Mr. John and Mrs Sarah.

The men do not know if they have a son or Mr. Daniel's life will also be in danger.

'We promise.' said everyone.

'We will probably start the company again in a few years' time and we will need all of you, because you are the heart of the company. But until the time comes, you all have to be somewhere else and find another job. We thank you for your support and your contribution to the company. I hope to see you soon, ' said Simon and asked them all to leave.

Everyone left and Simon looked at me.

"Now it's your turn Young Master, listen carefully to me.' said Simon.

They have hidden businesses like gambling, illegal weapons and everything else that makes them so rich.

It's all led by your grandfather, but he doesn't want your Papa to be the chairman and risk his life being the leader of the gang. So their enemies won't get any information about the other gangs trying to undermine the Red Dragon's peace.

But once you're born, they want to raise you without danger. So they decided to leave the gang and live in this city and start their new life by building a company to make things what they are today.

After your grandfather died, so the Red Dragon gang became uncontrollable.

Without leaders, gangs are nothing. No one knows what happened to the Red Dragon gang. Everyone thinks that the gang is still there and everyone who is in the mafia world is still afraid of the gang.

The men wearing black clothes you see with the snake image are members of a notorious gang called the Black Vipers.

They are not humans, but demons. They will kill people without mercy. They were actually involved in the sale of illicit drugs and other businesses that only caused chaos.

One of their members tried to infiltrate to get important information. The moment they found that information, that person instead saved himself. He bestows blame on both of your parents and says that it was the Red Dragon gang members who did it and leaked the information to mess with their gang.

The leader of the Black Vipers gang became angry and asked his members to bring both of your parents.

The Vipers knew that the Red Dragon was powerful. They don't want to start a fight quickly. So they start threatening your parents to prove that they're both involved with leaking that information. They sent me to find some evidence, but their time wasn't enough.

We don't know who we're going to blame and can't prove our innocence, no matter how much your parents try, they always send their members to kill your parents.

Your parents know that they will hurt you. So they don't let others know about their child in order to protect you. So don't mess with the hard work of your parents who are trying to protect you from harm.

You must get ready for revenge first, Simon said at length to me.

I feel my blood boiling my jaw hardened. I clenched my hands so hard that my nails almost hurt my palms.

I know who's doing that now. But all I know is I have to get my revenge.

'You can't stay here sir. They'll know and they'll kill you too. You should stay with Nana, because they also know about me. I'm sorry sir, but to protect you, I can't stay with you much longer. You have to go with Nana. I will try to finish my unfinished work and I will try to come and see you often.

I could only agree at that time and I went with Nana.

Seriate...
