Ace De Santis

It was 9 am. Exactly 9:00. As I said, I'm going to pay a little visit to the Hale concerning our problem.

I got ready by 10:00 sharp. I went outside and saw Ian and Jeremy waiting infront of my car like I told them too. They are my friends but they also works for me. Im their boss so, yes. They should listen to me.

I had no problem with the Hales. I just have a problem with their daughter, Alexia. I don't really tolerate her but if it meant finding out whoever that fucker who have evidence on us is, I'd work with her. At least till we find that asshole.

"Morning, Ace." Jeremy said smiling.

"Morning Jeremy, Ian."

"Lets go!" Ian said excitedly which made me smile.

"I'll drive." i stated as i got into the driver's seat and they both hopped into the car.

We reached The Hale's house within 30 minutes. Their house was huge but not as huge as mine. Their gate was opened, i entered and parked my car.

We walked and rang their door bell. A woman opened the door for us. She looked probably 40 or something.

"Who are you?", She asked, staring at us.

"Hello. Sorry for disturbing you. Im Ace, Ace De Santis and they are Ian and Jeremy " i introduced us.

"Let them in." a deep voice inside said as the woman stepped aside and welcomed us inside.

"Ace. To what do i owe this pleasure?" the man asked. It was Chris Hale.

"Take a seat." He added and pointed to the couch.

"I would answer the question if you didnt already know the answer." i replied as i sat infront of him.

"Did you find out who was the one who betrayed you?" Chris asked while sipping his tea.

"Yeah, some asshole named William. My guys are on it. They're after him."

"In mine was someone name Peter. When i find him, he's gonna wish he was never born."

Chris said furiously.

"Ive been asking myself this question. Who is behind all that?" i asked and started thinking of all the people who could possibly want revenge. But my thoughts were interrupted when my eyes fell on probably the most beautiful woman ive ever laid eyes on stood on the stairs. She was wearing a shirt, a pair of shorts and bare foot. Her hair was long, messy and fuck, she looked beautiful. She wasnt wearing any makeups. She didnt need them.

"Dad. What kind of sick person comes at someone's house at 10:00 am in the morning? Whoever that person is, i hope he or she knows that she disturbed my sleep." She said as she continued walking down the stairs.

"Morning sweetheart. Meet Ace, Ace meet my daughter, Alexia." Chris introduced us to each other.

"Morning dad. What the hell is he doing here?", She asked crossing her arms.

"We got work to discuss." Chris replied

"Okay." She said and went to the kitchen. What an Attitude.

"Where were we?" Chris continued.

"It's probably The Jones? They always wanted to superior than me. Superior than you." I stated.

"Yeah, thats a good point." Chris replied thoughtfully.

"Boss, we found this piece of paper on the car." Ian said as he handed me a piece of folded paper.

I opened it and read

"I'm coming for you two, Ace and Alexia. All of you. You'll watch as your loved ones suffer. You'll hear their cries and see them suffering. Mark my words, I'll take your loved ones away from you. Both of your families will rot, Ace De Santis and Alexia Skylar Hale shall suffer. Your worst nightmare."

"Chris, you've got to see this." I said as I rushed back inside with the paper in my hand. I gave it to him and he read it. Even Alexia, his daughter stood beside him reading that paper.

"Check the CCTV. Whoever wrote that will be found" Chris said as he ordered a guy who quickly went upstairs.

"What kind of sick asshole is our enemy?" Alexia asked while holding a mug of tea in her hands. I'd be lying if I said that girl wasn't hot.

"I don't know." I said deep in thoughts

"Daddy what's going on?" A screeching voice yelled from upstairs.

"Who the fuck is that?" I murmured under my breathe

A girl stood on the stairs wearing nothing but a lingerie.

"Meet my other daughter, Dana", Chris said pointing a finger at her.

"Oh. My. God-" she stopped and started breathing heavily.

"__Ace!" She yelled once again and started walking quickly to Me.

"Dana. Not now. We are talking about business", Chris just saved my life, unknowingly.

"Why would someone be after the two of you?" He asked again

"Well, I can think of a hundred of reasons as to why someone or some people would be after us". Alexia said

"I think you two should work together and sort this out" Chris said

"Wait what?" Alexia and I said at the same time

"I said-" he repeated himself but Alexia stopped him with "We heard what you said."

Hell no. Not happening. Ever. Again.

"I think it's a good idea." A man's voice coming from the door said.
