Chapter 1: Veronica Villamor – The Billionairess

"Hello Daniel ... Myka ... sit down ... nice to see you two again ...Welcome my Daniel and Myka... Welcome!"

Daniel and Myka sat in their respective places without saying anything to my greeting. The waiter approached us to take our orders. I felt them being so far away from me that I changed my approach so that they could catch my bait. I kept quiet and looked at them eye-to-eye.

Noticing the situation, Myka Ferrer began to speak."Veronica, we're glad to see you again."

"Me too, but it seems your husband is ...," my voice trailed off, running through my dry throat.

"Forgive him Veron, he's happy too ... but ...," Myka stopped and looked at her husband.

"I hate you so much Veron .... that I want this meeting very badly," Daniel suddenly said.

“Ohhh I see….then this is the best time to talk to you, Daniel. May I ask why you hate me?”

"You know it Veron! Liar!"

"I'm a liar? You Daniel... look at your situation today? It's the year of the Billionaire, now... and you...... a poor struggling creature in the beautiful city of Dubai?"

Daniel stopped suddenly when he felt my anger. He turned his head to the left where he could see Mike Luna and three of my men sitting at the other table.

“You know Daniel ... Myka ... I know everything about you two .... everything ... that I've heard ... you want to talk to me? Am I right Myka?"

"Yes Veron, that's right," Myka answered. "Sorry for my husband's behavior."

“Then…tell him to behave properly in front of me…you need me more than I need you two!” I yelled at them, clawing my way to get them.

"I'm sorry, Veron ... I apologize ..." Myka Ferrer said as Daniel kept quiet with me.

"Then how can I help you?"

"A large sum of money is needed now ... to pay for our debts."

"How much?"

"Five million dollars."

“Five million? How can you pay that amount Myka?”

"I'll try my very best to pay you ....," then Myka looked at her husband.

"What is my guarantee for this agreement?"

Mike Luna suddenly motioned to me where I apologized and stood up. He reported additional topics about the couple that gave me another insight into the situation. I returned to the table and spoke.

"Forget it Myka ... I have an offer for you and your husband. I'll double that amount if you agree with me.” I make another gesture to Mike about the suitcase and he hands me a folder."Myka ... Daniel ... read it ... I'll give you thirty minutes to read and decide ... you can leave and come back here in 30 minutes, okay?"

"Okay, Veron."

They immediately left for their hotel room not knowing that I had instructed my men to monitor them on CCTV. Five minutes later, one of my men reported to me that the two were fighting over their decisions. Daniel was very passionate about money and getting back at me. While Myka has a taint of her decision, she maintains her stance but prefers the money eventually.

“Oh well, keep following them until they get back here…go..go..”

"Yes Mam Veron... yes."

Mike and I waited for my men to report back, but I watched them all come to our table."Mike quickly ... talk to them ... and report to me even if they are here ... go!."

When the couple appeared, I used my acting skills to charm them even though I didn't speak. That's the way I learned when dealing with bastards like Daniel. I noticed that it was working well, and I turned on the acting technique. I struck an Italian pose, shrugged, and looked them straight in the eyes."So, what can I expect from you two now?"

"Yes, Veron ... I agree to your terms and conditions .... all the way," Myka said confidently.

"Oh okay, then Myka .... you can back off first ... I want to talk to Daniel alone?"

"Yes, sure Veron."

Myka stood up, sitting next to Mike at another table nearby. I started to let out what I wanted to say to Daniel.

"Now that you've approved my terms, I'm giving you this opportunity, remember..." I said to Daniel.

"Yes, Veron .... because I want to kill you!"

“I'm sure you will… because you're gone now… and I've been ahead of you a billion times… look Daniel… so I challenge you to catch me… once and for all all ... or do you still love me?"

"Fool the others Veron, don't me... I'm so mad at you... I'll kill you this time to get revenge on my children!"

"So, you took my children away for your vain motives? What a good father you are Daniel! They are my children too! You took away my right from me... You know that I love them, so you took them away from mine!" I screamed in anger as Mike approached me, pulling me off the wall. He inserted the syringe into my arm and I calmed down immediately. I went back for the couple, "I hope you both .... don't be late." I told them before leaving the place.

Mike and my attorney prepared the documents for them to sign, fully explained the agreement, and answered their questions on the spot. The couple had no idea that I was inside my tinted car watching them. Daniel Montenegro and Myka Ferrer left the hotel after signing the documents and my staff was ready to follow them all the way. After performing my daily ritual; Injected with an adrenaline boost, exercising, and taking diet pills, Mike reminds me to check Daniel and Myka's documents again. He urged a run-down for me to interpret of my own accord. I made these rules and I knew firsthand that it was very dangerous but I liked the excitement. Daniel can avenge his hatred for me and he can also end up a Billionaire, like me.

I knew Mike understood what I wanted him to do but still kept asking questions and reviewing the agreement.

"Veron, do you realize this?"

"Yes Mike, I know what I'm doing."

"Here in the document, it says that Daniel and Myka Ferrer will follow you wherever you go, find you ... any land ... and kill you .... and your dead body must be brought to me to carry out the transfer involving money?"

"Yes, Mike."

"And, they should use any modern equipment to track you along with the old ones... like whatever they want to use against you?"

“Right… and I can only use improvised things… or tactics… manually to defend myself from them… and kill them too. Any intervention by the military and authorities is must be kept ... if possible to avoid them .... or exterminate them of my own accord. That was the beauty of it ... I liked it then ... it excites me."

"Veron, you don't want to live anymore ... it's like a game to you ... why my friend?"

"My head's gone, can't you see Mike? I've got everything I've got but I'm living on those drugs ... and ... and worrying about my family ... I'm all alone ... just you ... don't ask me that, okay Mike?"

"As you wish Veron ... Also, in the document .... you can use your ATM card only but not the real money ... and I will monitor you three ... every hour. Gadgets are required for you three."

"Yes, Mike .... the rules are for the three of us to follow.""We have to announce this party, at the beginning of the game ..... called Game FX ... all classes of people are invited; media people, socialites, models, actors, music artists, bankers , businessmen, writers, dancers, filmmakers, social climbers, friends, family, employees, politicians, etc ..... etc ..... Marco, it takes two months of preparation ..... I thought ... ”

"This is a must, Mike .... to announce to the world ...." Bored Billionairess Hire His Ex-Husband and Husband as Hit Men For The Game FX "..... Mike, am I right .. .or ..Bored-Drug-Addict Billionairess. Hired Her Ex-Husband as a Hitman To End His Life Called Game FX” ....which is the best Mike?”

"Okay ... okay Veron ... but please ... if you ever change your mind .... just pray to God and ask for forgiveness."

"You hope to find answers Mike .... this is the only way ..."

"I'll start right away Veron ... by the way, how is your preparation for Game FX going? Can I help you with anything?"

"Just check my adrenaline-booster, ATM bank cards, and a rosary."

"Okay Veron, I'm going to go with my assignments. Just stay, don't leave okay?"

I heard Mike's last words but my mood changed so impartially that I nodded for confirmation. I stood up, went to my personal bar, poured whiskey into a transparent glass, and drank to quench my thirst. I poured another double shot to wash directly down my throat towards my stomach. My body started shaking so much that I ran to the sanctuary room. The coldness of my flesh ran deeper into my bones, my vision formed ugly images and my mind floated in the air. I felt that the world was distorted because of me. Images of the past continue to haunt me forever. I can't hide it anymore. Those evils remained in my being. I screamed in pain. "Living's not an option now! You devil! Go away! Go away!!"

The unknown feeling continued to stir my soul, my vision blurred, and I held my body close to my heart. I felt someone injecting into my arm and I slowly recovered from the demons' wrath. Outside the perimeter of my mansion, filled with people curious about the media; local and international have set up their temporary shelters in front of my house. I could see them through my room where I observed some of their activities. They are curious about Game FX and want to know about it. In fact, they arrived early as Mike Luna had scheduled.It has been publicized throughout the world; indeed, it made huge waves across continents!

Around the world, Game FX spread like a virus which gave the hungry media to know firsthand about my decision. Mike Luna submitted some insight regarding Daniel and Myka's agreement with us. Curiosity is the answer for some people why I have to hire my ex-boyfriend as a hitman and why I decided this way because I am a Billionairess.
