Chapter 1: A New Lease in life
What a fresh meat , I wonder how much we are getting paid for this ', a man said.
Scarface, are you sure ?,that we are allowed to do this?', another man said.
The man called Scarface indeed lives up to his name, because on his face was a long horizontal jarred line that divided his face in half .
Yes , you are , our backer has paid a lot of money,that will last us a for a lifetime ',Scarface said.
Just do your job before she wakes up ' he added as directed his gaze to an unconscious teenager that was tied up .
Boss, the boys you requested for have not arrived ', a man who just came in said .
WHAT!',Scarface shouted.
Scarface , let's take this conversation outside before we wake her up'.a man beside Scarface advised.
At those words, everyone left.
On the ground , the teenager finally breathed a sigh of relief as her captors left. She has been awake since they started talking but she continued to stay still because she was trying to gather herself , didn't I die in the fire ? , how am I still alive? ,and why does this feel familiar?. As this this thoughts ran through her head , she heard the sound of a door opening in the quiet background and footsteps that belong to a man . The man left his group in secret to come and have fun with the little girl, once he finished untying the ropes , he suddenly felt a sharp pain in between his legs before he could even cry for help he was knocked out.
The teenager 's name was Roxanne Kim, the adopted daughter of the business tycoon , Lucian Kim, who is the fourth master of the kims , he is the Ceo of the kims industrial corporation. He has three older brothers, one was an illegitimate, one died in a car six years ago.
Roxy stood up from the ground and looked around to check her surroundings, what greeted her sight was scattered bottles of vodka, tables , chairs everywhere , with snuffed out cigarettes , lastly a tripod stand with camera and in front of it was a bed. She froze on seeing the camera , a memory flashed before she had time to think about it , she heard footsteps and men talking in a boorish manner that echoed in the abandoned building came in .
Without any second thought, she took off on a run before she could reach the back door , she heard a shout ,
Hey!, stop right there?', a man shouted.
She is awake ?,the drug was supposed to leave her unconscious for a long time , how did she ....' a man pondered
No time to ask those stupid questions , she is getting away', Scarface, who just got the news said , as he brought out his phone to call the last number that was dialed
Hello', a woman's voice was heard.
Madam, the girl ran away, Scarface told her
WHAT! , are you kidding me?, she is just a fifteen year old , how did she escape from your grasp ', the woman questioned.
We gave her a high dosage of the drug that you gave us , she should have been unconscious ', Scarface said.
Shut up!, do you know who her father is , once he finds out that his daughter is kidnapped, he will torture you then hopefully he will kill you once your worth is wasted ',the woman screamed.
So, do you want me to end her?',Scarface asked.
Finally, we are of the same mind , do it and do it cleanly with no loose ends , okay?',she said
Yes , ma'am ', Scarface answered obediently.
Roxy ran with all her might, taking turns trying to find a way out of the deserted alleys when she stumbled upon a club with a bustling activity, girls dressed in skimpy outfits and guys checking them out, but she didn't go to them because a piece of information just flashed in her memory.
While she was running, Roxy was able to gather her thoughts and one word , she's reborn?,but why?, to fix everything?, to save her dad and older brothers? , to make that woman marry her dad?, to save her sister?.
If it's all of these reasons, then she can accept that fact. The first step is to meet her, Leah Caputo,a twenty-three year old fashion designer. She has a twin sister who is famous in the medical world, her name is Lena . They have three older brothers, Giovanni,a successful business man, Andrea ,a painter , and lastly Matteo, a popular actor,born to an Italian business man and a korean woman who lives in America, Mr Alessandro Caputo and Luna Song. Luna wasn't able to name her sons, so made a deal with her husband that if she give birth to a girl in her next pregnancy, she would be the one to name them and he agreed and
that was how Leah and her sister was named.
Despite the fact that Leah was successful, her family still give her pocket money and according to rumors this club was gifted to her on her sixteenth birthday. Roxanne crossed her fingers hoping that Leah is in the club and her wish came true because the bustling activity in the club came to a stop and a twinkling of an anklet was heard in the background, with that sound Roxy jumped for joy on the inside.
She hoped for Leah to be in the club , because she is the only who could save her. As Leah was walking the crowd made way for her as if she is the queen, dressed in a pink crop top and white jean skirt that was too short , that it showed her goddess like legs, a glimpse of a butterfly tattoo could be seen on her right leg , an anklet on her left, she wore a pair of pink canvas anf and a white scarf was wrapped around her neck , it was too big that it framed her oval face . This look made her seem easygoing and approachable to others but to those who knew her , they know that she's angry and was going to make the person who made her angry pay, silently they pray for that certain person soul to rest in peace.
With a smile on her face Roxy walked towards Leah's direction but before she could take a step forward a heavy hand landed on her shoulder and a hoarse voice was heard,
Don't shout, or else ', Scarface said as he poked her abdomen with a gun.
Tears began to brim in Roxy's eyes, knowing that if she doesn't escape from this, then she's never going to change her fate,slowly , she took out a small needle that she saw lying on the ground, when she was running , and with that Roxy used it to prick the man's acupoint.
Scarface was about to lead her away ,when suddenly he felt a sharp pain on his arm and with jerk he freed Roxanne , using this opportunity , Roxy ran towards Leah shouting,
Help, help me !',
Leah was about to enter her car when she heard a cry for help, curious she turned her head and saw a teenager running towards her with a man chasing her. Confused on what is going on, she sent a signal to her bodyguard, who was about to carry out the order when,
BAM!
A gunshot was heard , everywhere was plunged into chaos ,people were running helter skelter. Leah ran towards the teenager and caught her before she fell to the ground, touching the wound on the teenager's back , she raised her hand to find it stained in blood, and a murderous glint flashed in her eyes.
In anger,she took a gun from her bodyguard and shot the scarred man in the leg , since he was culprit,as for his companions,well they didn't survive.
Bang ! Bang! Bang!
As for Scarface who laid down on the ground in his own pool of blood there was only one word in his mind , of all people this little bitch had to pick HER ,this legendary demoness.
Take that scarred man to the base , make sure you treat him well and continue to do that until I give you an order to bring him out ', Leah said in a soft voice that was filled with deathly intent as she pressed on the wound with her scarf.
Yes , boss',the body guard answered as he bowed. Leah boarded the car with the help of her other bodyguards with the teenager lying on her lap.
Drive to the nearest hospital ',Leah said .
Little girl, don't sleep,stay awake ', Leah said in a voice filled with worry .
Roxy heard this words but couldn't stay awake, for her energy was draining fast , slowly she was losing consciousness. Although everything was ringing in her ear , there was a voice she would never forget and that voice was filled with worry for her,with a smile on her lips , she fainted .
