The Gangster And The Hacker

Chapter 38

"Why do you have to do it yourself?" Ben asked very slowly and animated his words as if I had impaired hearing.

"I am just asking everyone to speak at a low tone for the next few hours, not to take each other's lives. So you better stop making fun of me or else I will find out which tranquilizers give massive headaches and inject one of those in everyone's body. Then have fun with headaches or something even worse."

"Can we just cut it out for real? Because if this continues, I'll get a headache and if I get a headache, I'm gonna side with her on this whether anyone likes it or not." Jenna said, annoyed.

At least now they should shut their traps, cause I know they won't want their dearest family friend to side with an outsider.

"Fine." Jasper and Ben agreed. We all looked at Riley who had folded her hands on her chest and didn't look at the crew. When she realised no one's gonna stop staring at her she mumbled a 'fine'.

"So till the time we are here, we'll try to follow that stupid deal we made back at home right? I mean we didn't make that stupid contract just for the sake of it!" Everyone except Jasper glared at Ben for bringing up that stupid contract. 

I just wanna go back in time to stop myself from getting that damn stupid contract's idea. But that can't happen now, can it? 

"Well, he isn't wrong. After all, even if we made those papers at our level, it was basically for some uniformity between us. So we're gonna do what Ben just suggested." After whispering that, he and Ben took their stuff and started to walk towards exit.

We followed Ben and Jasper with our luggage while glaring at the two morons walking away like nothing happened. We traveled for an hour before reaching the beach house that Jasper mentioned at the penthouse.

"Thank goodness." I mumbled under my breath as soon as I got out of the car and got the luggage out with Ben's courtesy. 

"Huh, seems like I won't be enjoying this beach while talking on the phone." I checked my phone for any messages or missed calls but my phone didn't have any range. 

They all looked at me like I just told them that all of this is an illusion. "How the fucking hell did you get a damn phone for yourself? Didn't you like, crushed and dumped your phone at the airport before going all bonkers?" Jenna asked.

I lightly facepalmed and replied, "Because that was a phoney cell I was using. I mean didn't y'all at least think once that I might have more than two phones given how much I love electronic gadgets? This is my real cell." I waved the hand with which I was holding my mobile.

"So any interesting info to give me about this place?" I continued sarcastically when they continued to stare at me like I'm a lunatic. 

Ben was the first one to get out of whatever bubble they were in and blurted out, "We don't have WiFi here. And no signal to our cell phones either."

"What?!" I yelled, forgetting the fact that yelling will intensify my headache. I mumbled a few more profanities while giving a massage to the sides of my head. 

"Well for the record, you didn't ask us if there was WiFi or even a signal on any cell phone here." Jasper piped in with his bland tone and shrugged. Of course why would he fucking care?! 

"Whatever. Is anyone gonna open the damn door or do you want the police to get here? Because I'm pretty sure the neighbors might do that with all the commotion we have created here." I shrugged. 

They walked to a gate that led to a two storey house that was painted in light green and blue colors. This should be nice. They opened the door to the house and the first thing I noticed was the state of the place.
