Kale is sitting in front of a desk full of papers to file and to check. So, he's helping his father with Mondragon files and whatnots. Nathaniel is also with his father to do some things while Natalia is with Cyra for their research and slowly building it using a temporary experimental laboratory in Bea's house in the basement where she did her creation or something.

He already missed his girlfriend who is in her training. Well, he had a life and he needed to go to Stanford to get Business Law. Yup, he's going to work in the company. Males work business while girls do whatever they wanted. It's like he got a choice at all.

"Finish that and stop minding your girlfriend who is in training,

" Stanley said.

"Dad, how are you like this with mom?

"

"Well, I met your mom, not at your age. I was screwing around at your age, before becoming the greatest man for you mom.

"

"Oh,

" Kale nodded. He didn't know his parent's love story but somehow, when he's at least four years old, he saw how her father get angry over a woman or a man. He promised his mother to kill them. But his mother told him to calm down.

"Dad, can I ask?

"

"You are already asking.

"

"Who is that man or woman you are angry about when I was four years old?

"

Stanley stopped and he exhaled.

"Go back to work.

"

"I am just curious,

" Kale mumbled.

"It's our matter, okay?

"

"I should know people who tried to hurt our family—

"

"Kale, just focus on your work.

"

Kale nodded. It seemed like his dad is upset with about it, so he didn't ask further. Maybe if he found out, he'll understand his father's anger toward those people. He also noticed that his Aunt Kathleen isn't showing much in their family gathering and his dad is brushing her off.

"Stop thinking out loud. Go finish that.

" Stanley scolded him.

"Yes, sir.

"

So, after the work, he finally got his off day and meet up with his girlfriend in her condo. The first thing he did is gift her a condom, chocolates, and a little teddy bear.

"Hi,

" Cathy kissed his lips.

"You looked so tired.

"

"Yeah.

" Kale nodded.

"Dad kept torturing me.

"

"Why?

" She giggled and pulled him and admired his suit.

"Business, huh?

"

"Yeah.

" He reached her lips and started kissing her passionately.

"Hmm. I'll check the stove first.

" She pushed him slowly and put all of his gifts on the table. He nodded and he sat on the sofa and relaxed a bit.

The phone is vibrating just beside him, and he reached it. He creased his brows when Cathy's ex-boyfriend is calling. He didn't answer it but the popped up messages started notifying on the screen.

Babe…

You smell and taste good as always…

I love how you wore the devil outfit again…

Can you wear it for me tonight?

Kale froze and he put her phone away. He sighed. So, she was busy not because of the training, but because of her ex-boyfriend that hurt her so much. They are still **ing. He stood and went to the room. It's quite messy and the sexy devil outfit that she wore for the man is on the laundry basket.

"Kale, dinner will be ready.

"

Kale didn't have an appetite for everything anymore. He has been cheated and she pretends that it's okay. Well, he needs to end things. He went to the living room and she's whispering on the phone and she hung up.

"How's your night with him?

" Kale asked. Cathy bit her lip.

"I'm sorry Kale.

"

"I know. Let's not meet each other, okay?

"

He turned back from her and walked to the door.

"Kale!

" Cathy run to him and hugged him from behind tightly.

"I'm sorry, please don't leave.

" She started crying.

"It's fine, Cathy.

" He unwrapped her arms around him and turned to him.

"You know what I hate so much?

" He scooped her face and wiped her tears.

"Being cheated.

"

"I—I can't control myself over him.

"

"Because he's been dominant toward you. Cathy, you need to learn that you are yourself. You don't need to dress up in the sexy thing and a sexy-devil outfit for him or others. If you can't be yourself, then it's your problem. I had helped you enough. If you love him, go to him even though he had hurt you so much mentally or physically. How much did he spank you until it pleases him?

"

She burst out crying.

"If you made up your mind, you need to consult a doctor for that sickness.

"

"Please, forgive me. Okay?

" she held him tightly.

"Don't leave. I made dinner.

"

Kale pitied her so much. What her boyfriend did to her is very painful. There might be more pain in her family that's why she always wanting pain.

"We have the best psychiatrist and she might help you.

"

"But Kale.

" Cathy looked so terrified.

Kale scooped her face.

"Cathy! If you keep doing this, I will stop talking to you. Do understand? Your friend doesn't even care about you and your relationship with your ex-boyfriend. They ** him. And if you keep sticking yourself with that man, you'll break than before! Do you understand? Think over this tonight.

"

"I'm sorry.

" She sobbed. She took her phone quickly and gave it to him as her hands shake.

Kale took it and checked the conversation and the videos of her and her ex-boyfriend as he **s her and grabbed her hair. Kale stopped it and he pulled her into a hug.

"I'll go to psychiatry if you want me to. Okay? Just don't leave.

"

"I won't leave.

" He finally said.

Threats. It's all about threats. That Cathy is finally okay with her life, suddenly her ex-boyfriend came up with blackmail to torture her.

"I'll handle it, okay?

" Kale said.

****

Sophia leaned on her seat as she exhaled. Ashton put her drinks over the table.

"Hey, kid, you need to learn some break.

"

"I am fine, Ashton. My sister is off from the site, so I am taking over through Demi.

"

"Okay, just call me if you need anything.

"

"Sure.

" Sophia waved him off and she continued working when her phone started ringing. It's already nighttime and why is he calling? She answered it.

"Yeah?

"

"I need your help.

"

"I am busy. Contact Aria or Asher.

"

"Oh, well, it's—

"

"What?

"

"It's my girlfriend.

"

"Did she cheat on you?

" Sophia guessed.

"His ex-boyfriend is blackmailing her.

"

"Okay. Why won't you ask Aria about it?

"

"They are busy as well.

"

"If he's blackmailing her… well,

" Sophia sighed she dropped her head on the table, but a hand stopped it.

"Hey! What are you doing?

" Jaxon asked.

"Don't hit yourself, kid.

"

"For Pete's sake! Stop calling me kid!

" She hissed.

"Hey, I'm sorry.

" Jaxon and Kale said almost at the same time. Kale is in a loudspeaker.

"Sophia, don't hurt yourself,

" Kale said.

"I am trying!

" She burst out. Rhys and Raiden arrived.

"What's wrong?

" They asked. Sophia looked at them and give the phone to them.

"I am still checking up about those rogues and the three of you should talk on how to hack such things!

" She scolded them.

They all leave her alone. Finally!

****

Rhys and Raiden are already on their laptop as they talk to Kale about the happenings and then they hacked the man's phone and there are lots of girls that he's blackmailing. They sent it to Dmitri as proof that a student is blackmailing students that he past relationships their sex videos. Then, they told Kale to file a complaint to the police.

It will be that easy-peasy. If he uploaded it, it will be automatically detected, and since they already put a virus to him by sending him porn and they also put a virus on it that can't be detected or seen easily.

"How much are you paying us, Kale?

" Rhys and Raiden asked.

"I was glad that Sophia isn't the one that did the work, so it won't cost me any. Now, the two of you wanted price?

"

"Hey, our mother froze our account.

" Rhys and Raiden said at the same time.

"Give us money. Through online, okay? That only costs 10K per head.

" Then they hung up and do their secret handshake.

*****

There's already set up for the tent near the river. There's a bathroom that was made and Bea isn't comfortable around. She's the only girl and although Noah is there, she didn't want to take a bath on the river. The bathroom is only for pissing or something. So, after organizing things and on what they need to do, they walk one kilometer to his car.

"Where are we going?

" She asked.

"Our house is just thirty minutes' drive from here. I'll take you there.

" Noah held her hand.

"Are you sure about that?

" Bea asked.

"My mom cooked delicious foods. That's foods that are grown from our farm. It's very nutritious. We don't have bubble tea here, so you need to eat.

"

"I am not that picky.

" She told him and then she reached him down there.

"I am picky at others but to this.

" She grinned at him.
