Olivia entered the underground bar. The smell of cigars and alcohol hit her nostrils, causing her to pitch the bridge of her nose at the stench. This place was a secret place where sinful things happened. The loud noise deafened her ears as she adjusted the black coat she was wearing and elegantly walked toward the bar counter. The flashing lights blinded her eyes as she pulled out a stool and climbed to sit. Her eyes darted around searching for a familiar face. This place was illegal.
“What can I get for you" a bartender with tattoos all over his arms and neck area came to Olivia, who turned her gaze back to him?
“Nothing… I'm looking for someone here” she said while twirling the credit card in her hand. Pedro was kind enough to give her the credit card to use for whatever she wanted.
“What does the pretty lady want…maybe I can be of help,” the man said with a smirk, leaning closer. I guess many girls came here for the wrong things. I saw how the tattooed man was behaving. The loud music intensified so much that anyone with sensitive ears would go deaf. I had to do this. The anger I was feeling after coming from the hospital was something I couldn't handle nor wait for Pedro to make his moves.
“I'm looking for a girl named Lia, “I said, drawing backward. I came here with an agenda and the start of distraction. The man seemed to have realized the person I was looking for. He moved backward and tapped his fingers a few times on the counter.
“And who is that exactly?” he said, getting back to cleaning the counter. He couldn't fool anyone, at least not me. I knew Lia came here to get more drugs for her addiction. If she wasn't at home, then she was likely here getting intoxicated.
“Tell me and I promise not to do anything…” said in the calmest way possible. I didn't come here to joke or wait, I had many things to do.
“Look here, lady… I don't know who you are or what you want, okay…just leave” the man said in a hushed tone. I could barely hear him from the loud music playing, but I caught some words he said.
“I have no time for you…talk!”I snapped, slamming my hand on the counter as the man flinched as his eyes widened in shock.
“She's over there,” the man said, pointing towards the far corner of the bar. I followed his gaze, narrowing my eyes vividly to see where he was pointing and yes. I saw Lia. I could recognize her anyway. Long brown hair, wearing a leather mini skirt and a bra. She was making out with someone. No one seemed to be paying attention to them, which was not needed.
People here did whatever they wanted in public. They fucked in public too and no one stopped them.
“Hm oh, baby” I heard moaning as soon as I reached the last table. Lia was a mess. Looking at the empty bottles, I knew she was wasted and high. The young man she was with was kissing her and looking down I felt disgusted seeing that they were having sex. She was fully clothed but had dragged the tiny skirt up and the boy had dragged his trousers down.
“Drugs” she had drugs in possession…I didn't waste time but walked towards the entrance of the bar. It wasn't so big like most bars but was fully packed.
“Hello, yes, I want to report someone in possession of drugs,” I said over the phone when I got to a quiet place. “The whole damned bar is full of em…distributing drugs like candy…”I added more, knowing the police would come and do what was needed. The only thing I required was to make Antonia pay, and starting with her little daughter was what I wanted.
“It's showtime,” I stood outside and waited for the police to arrive. It was sickening to see young girls making out in the open without shame. What sort of life was this? Keeping that aside, I made my way towards a hidden corner. It was nearly midnight. The bar was not allowed to reach such a time but 6 PM. Anything above that was considered a crime.
It didn't take long when I heard police sirens flying everywhere. Police cars came at high-speed and stopped right at the entrance. I heard screaming and people running around.
The terrifying thing was getting caught, and people here were getting caught. I was kind enough to peek out and see what I wanted to see.
“Let me go…let me go?”Lia was the one who shouted as she was being driven towards the police cars in handcuffs.
“Possession of illegal drugs…you'll rot in jail, Missy,” one of the policemen said as they dragged her straight to the car. Lai didn't stop shouting and threatening them about her powerful family… of course, Antonia would try to handle things privately. She was cunning enough to let things simmer about her daughter being an addict, so I did what was needed.
“Is this the news channel… I have interesting information for you… Garcia scandals” I said as soon as I called a well-known TV station. The people were cunning and hungry for scandalous news. The Garcias were the most seen family. Wealthy and people's envy. Many longed for their downfall, and this was epic.
“Let's see Antonia…how you handle this humiliation…your little daughter will rot in hell” it was time to make Antonia cry. I relaxed when I was already done. I knew I ditched Ira after leaving the hospital.
I required time to think and cool off…now I could have some decent sleep, knowing Antonia would suffer.

“Where the fuck is she… Sacha will kill all of us?” Zane asked as he packed back and forth in front of the entrance. He didn't expect Olivia to do this when she knew she was given strict instructions. It was already midnight and Pedro was yet to come. If he arrived and Olivia wasn't then the fire would burn fiercely.
“She's very stubborn… I can't believe she disconnected the GPS we put on her”Gabby said as he shoved the laptop in his lap aside. For hours, he had been tracking down Olivia.
“Ira…what were you thinking, huh…leaving her alone!”Zane snapped as he turned towards Ira. She was given specific instructions to make sure Olivia didn't do anything, and now they were hanging by a thread looking for her.
“Stop scolding me…that girl is stubborn,'' Ira said, rolling her eyes in irritation and crossing her legs elegantly. She knew nothing about this. Olivia was in the hospital. She asked her to wait for her and, like an obedient bodyguard, she did so.
“Whatever Sacha is going to murder us,” Zane said, running his hands in his hair as he paced around even more.
“Umm guys…take a look,” Gabby said hesitantly and Zane turned to see what was happening. Ira was at the edge of her seat as she feasted her eyes on the flat-screen TV before them.
“I see,” Zane muttered questionably as he walked to the living room and was stunned to see what was happening. Countless people gathered at some police station. Antonia and Luciano were surrounded by reporters flashing cameras at them.
“Is it true your daughter is a drug addict”
“The police caught her with illegal drugs…is this the business your family does,”
“How did she become a drug addict”
“Did she kill that young man in the bar”
The reporters fired Antonia and Luciano many questions and, as expected, the Garcia's didn't say anything as they were shielded away by the many guards they were with.
“Madam…your family is said to be perfect…what other secrets are you keeping…does this mean the accusations are true,”the questions continued and Zane was stunned. Ira was rendered speechless as she continued watching the scandalous drama. Gabby smirked as he stroked his chin.
"Did Sacha do this… I thought,” Zane wondered, narrowing his eyes suspiciously only to turn around only to find Olivia standing behind him.
Her sharp eyes were fixed on the TV screen. Ira and Gabby were alerted as they looked at Olivia. She looked scary, especially with the serious expression on her face.
“Olivia where were you…do…” Zane started, unfortunately, Olivia walked out on him and left from there. The three were surprised, not sure what to say. The lady didn't look so fine.
“Did she…” Ira wondered.
“Are you sure?” Both exchanged questionable glances, wondering if Olivia pulled the stunt they just watched.
