Capital City

Bea entered the luxurious restaurant with her nurse pushing her wheelchair, she folded her hands in her lap and looked at the waiter walking towards their direction.

"Mrs. Chu, Mr. Castro has been waiting for your in table five" The waiter dressed in a white polo and black bow greeted her, hand pointed at her right side.

Bea's eyes trailed his hand and saw a man sitting, staring at her direction, even in distance, she could see the dangerous aura surrounding him.

As her wheelchair roll its way to his direction, Bea reminisced the phone call she received from him.



Chu Residences.

Bea was in the garden chatting with her friends when the maid came and whispered.

"There's a man named John Castro on the phone, he's requesting to speak to you." the maid straightened and handed the phone to her.

Bea sighed and annoyance crinkled her face.

"Who is this?" she questioned without greeting.

"Mrs. Chu, My name is John Castro and I was wondering if you want to help me" he began.

Bea chuckled in sarcasm, "Mr. Castro, why would I help you?"

The man cleared his throat and replied, "Because we want the same thing, for Novie and Ken to separate, are you interested?"

Bea drummed her fingers on the table, then ask her friends to leave.

Her eyes narrowed and fell deep in her thought. Ken hasn't called her since the wedding and Anna is missing, even Anna's parent's keeps on calling just to curse on her.

Her forehead puckered and wonder who the man was.

"Who are you? what's your connection to Novie and my son?" she asked in confusion while inspecting her fingernails.

"Your son killed my father. Since I can't touch your son all I can do is to get his woman. Will you help me?"

Bea raised an eyebrow and fiddled with her earring, thinking if cooperating with him will be beneficial for her or will bring danger to her son.

But she knows better that in order to find his true intention, she needs to get close to him, or else the man might hurt her son.

"Set up a time and place to meet up" She stated and hung up the phone.



Present time.

When Bea reaches the table, John got up and helped her remove the chair in front, he took the wheelchair from her nurse and positioned it on the empty space.

John sat back in his chair and adjusted his tie.

"Go straight to your point Mr. Castro" Bea stated in a serious tone.

The man rose an eyebrow and gave her a lopsided grin.

"I only need the information about your son's connection," he replied straight.

Bea let out a sarcastic laugh and frown at him.

"I am not stupid Mr. Castro, why would I give my son's information knowing that you're holding a grudge against him" she replied. Her hand reached the water and drank it in one gulp.


John tugged at his shirt collar and looked at her in a serious face.

"I understand your point" he paused and rested his hands on the table.

Bea saw John's face darkened, the expression he had in his face shivered her skin but she knows that she can't back out now, she will never give her son's information to his enemy but she can use John to get rid of hers.

"I don't trust you Mr. Castro so I will not give my son's information." She stared at his blank face.

"Why did you decided to meet me then?" John asked her, Bea didn't like his tone, it's rude and arrogant, she nibbled on her bottom lip and narrowed her eyes.

"I have another proposal" she started and grabbed the white folder from her bag. She put it on the table and slide it into his direction.

The man took it without question and opened it, she could see his eyes narrowing while looking at the picture.

"Daniella Su? What do you want me to do with your son's sister?" he asked in surprise.

Bea scrunched up her face while her hands tightened into a fist.

"Don't spout nonsense. That woman is my husband's bastard. Anyway, I want you to kill her, if you do, I will help you separate my son to Novie." her jaw gnashed in anger.

John exhaled and gave her the folder back.

"I am afraid I can't, Mrs. Su is too powerful, no one knows her details" John shook his head, refusing her proposal.

"That makes sense, but tell me, do you really want Novie because she's my son's woman or there something else?" Bea raised an eyebrow, suspicious by his intention.

John cleared his throat, "I want Novie, at the same time I want your son to suffer by taking his woman away, it's like hitting two birds in one stone" he replied.

A small pain throbbed Bea's heart when she thought of her son getting hurt, but she doesn't want Ken to be with Novie, she still prefers her son to marry a woman with the same status as them.

"You like Novie? Why? She doesn't have a status, her parents are poor and her sibling is a trouble maker" Bea spoke mockingly.

Johh gnashed his jaw, annoyed by her tone.

"It's none of your business, but Daniella Su I don't think I can touch her, her husband is too powerful"

Bea's smiled wickedly, she tapped a finger on the table and asked John to lean forward to her direction.

The man looked at her in dismay, his thick eyebrows snapped together as he stared at her.

"I know her weakness, Mr. Castro, I know everything about her, so all I want you to do is to kill her and I will make sure that you will get Novie, but I am warning you, Mr. Castro, don't touch my son" She spoke in an aggressive tone.

The man got up to occupy the chair beside her.

"Why do I need to kill Daniella?" John tilted his head in confusion.

Bea drew in a long breath and replied, "Because she will stop all the people who try to take Novie away from my son." she turned her face away from looking at John, she loves her son but she doesn't want him to end up with Novie, even though the girl hasn't done anything bad to her, still Novie has a connection to Daniella and that's what she hated the most. She wanted someone like Anna who's willing to give up her friendship to Daniella and obey her.

"Tell me, what should I do?" his breath quickened as he looks at Bea.

She gave a bitter laugh and met his eyes.

"I will give you the details in a few weeks, in the meantime I want you to avoid meeting Daniella or else our plan will not work" Bea spoke in a grave tone.

John bolted, "Why?" he asked.

"Because that woman can read people's mind, but I am curious, why do you want Novie so much," Bea asked, puzzled by John's obsession to Novie.

The man stared at her in a blank expression, she could see that he doesn't believe what she just said "Give me the details and I will see what I can do, once Daniella is dead, make sure to take your son away from Novie" John replied, refusing to answer her question.

Bea smoothed down her skirt and look at the direction of her nurse sitting in table seven.

She waved a hand in the air, asking her to come closer.

"I will leave now, expect my call in a few weeks" saying that, Bea asked her nurse to leave the restaurant.

John watches Bea as she left, his eyes squinted while a vile smile curled up his lips.

(Seems like my trip was not a waste, Bea Chu totally bought my reason) he said to himself.

All he wanted was to check on Bea Chu, but instead, he got more information than he needed.

(Simple woman? How dare you say that. If you find out that your son can become a king, I am sure you will kiss Novie's feet just to get her favor"

John's face blackened as he recollected the nasty words Bea spoke about Novie.

(But that position is mine and not for Ken) with a dark face, his lips arced up a wicked smile.
