"Why did you punched me for? That almost broke my jaw!"
"Because you kissed me, you freaking as*hole!"
"Hmmp! You certainly liked it!"
"Get out! Now!"
"Hahaha! You're really beautiful even when you are angry" Michael just laughed, as he started massaging his jaws with his fingers.
"Michael, just get the f*ck out!" Amanda angrily said.
"I'll come see you later at the cafe" Michael smiled and just as he was about to get past the door, he stopped and looked back at Amanda, and said with a very serious tone, "About Jin, don't worry about him and let me handle that guy"
Then he left leaving those words, and while walking away, Michael could hear Amanda shouting at him from her room.
"Hey! What do you mean handle him!? Don't bother the guy, you don't know what he's capable of!"
'Yeah, but he also doesn't know what I'm capable of' Michael's eyes flashed with a cold gleam.
Amanda had clearly forgotten that Michael is walking away scott free while Jin is still behind bars, or else she wouldn't have said those words. Especially of what she had witnessed that night.
"You're finally leaving?" Jenny said the moment Michael turned into another corner.
"Yeah, when is Amanda getting discharge?" Michael said.
"Anytime, but she still needs rest. I mean mentally" Jenny replied.
Michael nodded then started making his leave.
Jenny quickly grabbed his arm when he was just about to past by her. Michael stopped and turned his over his shoulder and looked at Jenny, "What is it?"
"Amanda told me something about something that night, just who are you? "
"Amanda's boyfriend" Michael snickered, shook his arm from Jenny and made his way out of the hospital.
"What?" Jenny was surprised, then she hurriedly made her way towards Amanda's room and burst inside, like she had clearly forgotten what she truly meant to ask Michael.
"Is it true!?"
Amanda was so surprised that she almost dropped her phone on the ground.
"What?"
"Is it true that you're dating Michael?"
"What!? Did he tell you that?"
"But is it true though?"
"No! But...but we did kissed though" Amanda said as she touched her lips while the scene from their kiss flashed insider her mind.
"So you two are now dating" Jenny was so excited that she literally jumped joy and sat on the edge of the bed.
"What? I told you no!"
"Don't even lie, I know that look on your face. You liked it" Jenny said while scrutinizing Amanda's face.
"I..I didn't like it! Besides, I'm going to kill that guy after I get out of this place! That was my first kiss, and some a**shole just took it!" Amanda said while biting her thumbnail, as her eyes flashed with frustration.
"But you can't change the fact that he did save you from Jin. Knowing that bastard, I wouldn't even doubt that he would r.a.p.e you" Jenny said.
"Right, you never clearly told me what happened to that son of a b*tch!"
"Well, he's in jail and won't be coming out soon, and this our chance to put that bastard behind bars. I'm pretty sure their representative would come visit us any minute now" Jenny said as she also has a grudge against Jin.
Just as Michael is leaving for the exit, he saw a dark skinned man in a suit and holding a briefcase making his way towards the elevator.
Michael halted in his steps and looked towards the man, 'Jackson, one of Reeves loyal dogs'
'Enjoy your life to the fullest, because it won't be long before we'll see each other again, Sena...tor'
Michael grinned as he already started formulating plans inside his head.
Meanwhile.
Inside a mansion, five cities away from Central City.
Bang!
"Bullsh*t! What do they mean by that!? Are they telling me that my son should rot in jail!?" a fatty yelled angrily as he threw a wine glass on the floor.
The bald fat man with a pot belly, is Jin's father, Senator Mike Reeves. He is around mid fifties, and a very arrogant politician who would curse at anyone who gets in his way.
"Then are we just gonna let our son stay inside a jail cell!?" a blonde woman around the same age as the old man said angrily.
"Shut up! Isn't this your fault? It's because you always spoils him that he turned into a bastard! He always thinks that I will be there to clean up his mess!"
"Now, its my fault!?Whatever! I'm gonna go to Central City and bail our son out!" the woman started walking out in anger.
"Don't you dare! This event is already the worst thing that happened to our family! You going there and causing a scene would only infuriate them, then we wouldn't even know how we died!" Senator Reeves finally snapped and hurriedly ran over to his wife and slapped her on her face.
His wife touched her face, and was just about to burst in anger but quickly stopped when she heard what her husband said, and then she asked him with a trembling tone.
"Is the person behind Mine Tech. Industries really that powerful?"
Senator Reeves walked back to their living and sat heavily in their couch and sighed.
"Yes, that company already has the ability to dictate the country's economy even before the VR industries boomed into the market"
Mike took out a cigar from his cigar box, and started smoking it.
"They are one of the largest weapons manufacturing companies in the world, and they also own the second largest private military company in the world, Black Swamp"
"There's also a rumor going around lately that they also have a hand in the notorious hitman organization, The Continental. If that is true, then taking over an entire continent is not an impossibility for them, it would be a fact"
His wife started panicking, finally realizing how much of a mess her son had caused.
"But...but they can't do that, right?"
"Of course they can't. Remember those so called nine major gaming guilds? The people behind them are what's keeping this behemoth in check, including the Roshild and Arcana Families"
Then his face suddenly turned grim, and said with all seriousness.
"Without those groups watching them, a world domination would be within their grasp and no one would be able to stop them"
"They are so powerful that any person who's related to their enemies that's causing trouble in the places they control would be sent to jail and stay there indefinitely"
"That's the reason why we should let this matter slowly die out first before bailing him out, as I would also need to prepare myself from the attacks of my political rivals who would certainly take this opportunity to denounce me"
"Okay, okay, but I would still head to Central and talk to my son about this. I need to at least see if he's doing okay over there"
"Fine, just avoid causing trouble while you're there"
