Taking Over Saint Hotel 3

''This Lorca, can you tell me into detail the kind of things he deals with? Nothing much came out of my investigations''.

''You wouldn't find much from investigating such a man. He is sly and sneaky. He basically makes sure everything is well covered. Back then, I was the one who dealt with almost all his businesses.

I dealt with people who didn't want to work with him and even dealt with people who worked with and for him. I understand why he wanted me dead.

I knew too much and I wanted out which he didn't. The only way was for him to kill me.

I only regret that I wasn't able to save my parents. My parents were the real owners of all the money and houses that Lorca owns right now.

My dad was a scientist and my mom inherited the full authority to run the underworld from my grandfather. My parents didn't want me to have anything doing with their work because it was risky and dangerous''.

''I see'

''Remember in 20xx there was this drug that the government banned, it was supposed to be an aphrodisiac used by drug dealers and club operators?':

''Caldox 856?''

''Yes, that was made by my father''.

''Really?''

"'Do you know what the numbers mean?''

''Did they have a meaning?''

''Yes, they did. The numbers represented me. 856, August, Mai, June. I was named after the months''.

''What?''

''Tricky, right? My parents were not really good people but at least they didn't force me to do anything that I didn't want. They wanted me to have a normal life. The numbers are my social security number and the password to their secret account which Lorca wants"

''I'm speechless''.

''I know. My family was scary. Till now, Lorca doesn't know about the numbers. He isn't as smart as my parents. He wants to capture me because he believes I know the password.

My parents left a big estate garden at the outskirts of D-CITY, you will be amazed if you saw it. They built it to give to me on my 16th birthday but died because of Lorca. I was really naïve back then. I thought that my parents were still alive and did a lot of horrible things just to make sure Lorca didn't hurt them''

''You are a strong girl, Maijune:'.

''Yes, I agree with you on that''.

''Tsk!!''

''Aaron Saint, I don't know how powerful you are, but keeping me by yourself means you will be in danger because of me. My whole life, all the people that were close to me are dead.

They died because they knew me. You saved me and my sisters, I would never be able to forgive if anything happens to you because of me. August and Mai will never forgive me''

''You think too much. Nothing will happen to me. If there is anyone to be afraid of in this city, then is me. You have no idea how powerful I am. Nobody will be able to touch even your hair, okay?"

''I trust you''.

LAKESIDE ESTATES JOSH VILLA.

BEDROOM.

Liyah Myers stirred in the bed and opened her eyes and saw Josh dressing up to go out. She looked at him through the mirror and thought to herself ''this was what I wanted, but why do I feel regret after obtaining him?''

Josh Saint turned and saw her looking at him and asked ''you are awake?''

''Where are you going? Is late?'' Liyah asked.

''I need to meet someone. Aaron Saint is trying to steal what's mine''.

''What is that?'' Liyah Myers sat on the bed.

''Saint Hotel. He managed to get hold of some important documents and sent them to the old Master. He wants Saint Hotel''.

''But, Saint Hotel is yours''

''He is jealous. After all, I have you whom he doesn't. I bet is all a revenge thing he is doing''.

''Because of me? Did Aaron Saint say that to you?'' Liyah Myers asked curiously and if Josh had listened carefully he would have detected the little bliss behind the voice.

''Is obvious, he isn't over you. Go back to sleep, I will be back in no time''.

''Okay, babe. Take care''.

Josh Saint kissed her forehead and went out. Liyah smiled slyly and murmured ''Aaron Saint, you're still not over me after all. Now I know you're only using that girl to make me angry and jealous''.

.....

SKY VIEW NIGHT CLUB.

Josh Saint arrived and gave the car keys to the valet after getting down. He walked into the club and was led to a private room.

Josh Saint entered and saw three women pleasuring a man and he sat down. The man ordered the women to stop and they stopped and went out in their skimpy dresses.

Josh Saint stretched forth his hand and greeted the man ''Hi, I am Josh Saint, remember me?''

''Lorca Don Marco'' Lorca poured Josh a drink as they chat. ''So, you are from the Saint family. I think I did a job for you 5 or 6 years ago?''

''Yes, I contacted you through someone and asked you to get rid of Aaron Saint, you and your men failed''.

''Well, that was rather unfortunate. Something happened that year''.

''August Maijune, that psychopath you made is alive''. Josh Saint threw the pictures he got at Lorca.

''I know''

''She is with Aaron Saint; how do you plan to handle that? Your men assured me that she would be able to get rid of Aaron Saint but that fell through''.

''Relax, Mr. Saint. I know what I'm doing. Getting rid of August Maijune is a piece of cake. I know you are scared she might come after you, but you don't have to be. I have good news for you. That lunatic has amnesia''

''Amnesia?'' Josh Saint asked and smiled.

''Yes, she doesn't remember anything. I personally asked a friend to get hold of her medical records and I found out this interesting piece of news. Mr. Saint, that lunatic won't be able to recognise you anytime soon''.

''Are you sure?''

''Yes. I turned her into a monster, surely she can't be smarter than me''.

'''That is that, now back to the main reason for me coming here. I need you to finish the job you didn't five years ago''.

''You mean; you want Aaron Saint out of the way?''

''Yes''.

''Okay, but it can't be anytime soon. Give me some time. Aaron Saint is more powerful than he was 5 years ago after all''.

''Two weeks''.

''Four weeks''.

''Three weeks''.

''Okay, three weeks it is then''.

Josh Saint and Lorca clicked their glasses together and drunk.

EDEN ESTATE

SAINT VILLA.

AUGUST/MAIJUNE/MAI'S ROOM.

Mai opened her eyes and looked at the unfamiliar room. She looked at the ceiling and murmured ''where. Am. I?''.

Mai sat up and looked at herself, she raised her hands and scanned herself and murmured ''I am Mai August June''.

Mai got down from the bed and scanned the room as she murmured some medical gibberish ''Benzhexol Biperidine Chlorpromazine Trifluoperazine''

She scratched her head and started mumbling again ''what else did I forget? I need to get a lot of things to make the inducers before uncle Lorca beats me, I can't let him beat me again''.

Mai started trembling in fear and ran into the closet and shut herself in it.

Aaron Saint ate his breakfast while constantly peeking at the door of Maijune. ''Did she go for a run?''

Aaron Saint quickly finished his meal and sent the plates to the kitchen sink. He turned and came face to face with Mai standing in front of him with the pig-like teddy bear and screamed

''Maijune!!! Can you not scare me like that? When did you get down? I thought you went for a run?''.

Aaron Saint paused and looked at her dressing and said ''you're not Maijune?''

''I am Mai August June. Who are you? What am I doing here? Where is this place?''

Aaron Saint calmed himself down and spoke ''I can't believe I am introducing myself again?''

''Is that your name? I can't believe I am introducing myself again? That is a long name''.

''No, can you move back a little? You're too close for comfort?''

''Ahh, sorry. I usually stand close to people I am talking to, but I will sit there''. Aaron Saint watched Mai as she went and sat at the dining table and he joined her.

''I am Aaron Saint and I am your guardian''.

''Guardian? You're not a member of Lorca's gang? Are you an enemy that have kidnapped me? Do you want me to make bombs or gunpowder for you?''

''Wait''. Aaron Saint stopped her feeling confused and murmured ''I guess I won't be going to work today''

''Work? Did you bring me here so that I can test your works for you?''

''Mai, I need you to stop talking and listen to me, okay?''

''Oh''. Mai blinked her eyes and looked at Aaron Saint with an innocent and curious gaze.
