Chapter 512 - 185: Gonzalvo's death (15)

Without a doubt, the important news that Felix didn't manage to tell is about Diego, their Boss's death, if it is not about Diego, then what is it that makes Felix act like this?

Ramon thought to himself as he is still hoping against hope that the news that is making Felix grieve is of another matter and not about their boss, Diego

Although he knows that he is only lying to himself as he saw Felix nodded and cried incessantly when he mentioned the boss's name, he still wanted to believe otherwise

Damon tried to compose himself and he turns to address his wife to ask her to go with the other women to prepare dinner for them after all, they still need to eat as they have work to finish later

When Josephine and the other women working in the secret facilities with them were about to leave to go to the kitchen and prepare their dinner, the door at the back of the building leading to the workers quarters, suddenly open

Julio and Jorge walked in, with their eyes still red from crying and their face flushed from the glasses of scotch that they drink

When Ramon and the others saw their faces, their heartbeats quicken as they watch the two brothers approach them slowly

" Julio, Jorge, what are you guys doing here? Who's guarding outside at the front gate?

Ramon asks the two brothers, the words hardly came out of his mouth as he finds it hard to speak. It feels like there is a lump in his throat and a hand squeezing his heart at the same time when he saw Julio and Jorge walked in from the back door with that look on their faces

"... I ask Carlito to lock the gate so that no one can enter " Jorge briefly answered as he cast a glance at all the people who gathered around them with an anxious look on their faces before his eyes landed on Felix

Where are the others? Are they all here? What about the people working in the laboratory? Did anyone inform them to come? Jorge then ask after sweeping the entire room a glance for the second time after seeing Felix miserable condition

" No, we can't go to the laboratory yet, they are in the middle of finishing all the orders that we need to deliver tomorrow.

The workers in the weaponry division said that they will come over as soon as they finished what they are doing. We have so many orders to deliver to our clients tomorrow and they are trying to finish it before dinner tonight" 

Damon answered and then look at Jorge expectantly and trying to guess their purpose of coming over personally, although the answer to his question is very clear and he didn't need to guess, Ramon still refused to accept and believe although the truth is already staring him in the eye

" It's alright, just informed everyone including the workers in the laboratory and weaponry that we are going to have an emergency meeting after dinner"

Jorge announced and then turn to leave leaving everyone with questions in their minds that they are afraid to ask

*""*""""*

That night, Felix took Morgana and her team in the mess hall to eat dinner and attend the emergency meeting. Earlier, Ramon and Josephine came over and Felix introduced them to the couple 

Felix and Josephine were surprised when they saw Gonzalvo together with Morgana as they haven't seen him for a long time

When Gonzalvo saw the couple, he suddenly stands up and guffawed as he gives the couple a bear hug

Seeing Gonzalvo looking so happy and excited, Felix smirked and glared at Gonzalvo as he commented

" what are you so excited about? Is that how you grieved for the boss's death? Or are you too happy that you can't conceal it as you wanted to be our new leader?

Felix questioned Gonzalvo one after another as he still feels irritated just looking at Gonzalvo. Because of that, Felix failed to notice the shocked looks on Ramon and Josephine's faces when they heard him saying that the boss, Diego is dead in Gonzalvo's face.

They didn't even hear Felix saying that Gonzalvo wanted to be the new leader as their mind went blank as their knees go weak and both of their worlds collapsed and darkens as they could only see darkness around them 

The voice of Morgana calling Ramon and Josephine's name pulled Felix and Gonzalvo's attention back to the couple. The two of them were shocked seeing Ramon and Josephine lying limply on Morgana aka. Philip, and Arriane aka. Jorge 

The two were already bickering at each other as Gonzalvo face Felix while rolling his sleeves when he heard him commented as he is already mad at the way Felix is treating him

" Ramon!!! Josephine!!! Gonzalvo and Felix both exclaimed at the same time, as they both rushed towards the unconscious couple

Even though Ramon is strong and healthy, he still fell unconscious when he heard that Diego is dead, earlier when Felix came to find them but failed to tell them the whole story.

Ramon has already had a feeling about it, as his heart tightened at the thought of Diego losing his life, but he chose to ignore the feeling and still try to lie to himself even though it is already clear to him and he only needed Felix confirmation 

Now that Felix has already said it, the truth of Diego being dead hit them so hard making them fall into a coma as they still can't believe that it is true

" Philip? What happened to them? Why did they suddenly faint? Felix ask Morgana as they lay the couple down on the couch while waiting for Loida who went to get a bottle of water for the couple

"..." 

I..... I don't know, I just saw that both of them paled and collapsed after hearing Felix mentioned that boss Diego is dead, I didn't have the time to warn the two of you as I rush over with my cousin Jorge to catch them" 

Morgana answered as she turned to look at Felix before asking

Felix, you haven't told anyone about boss Diego's death? 

Felix looks down feeling guilty as he said; " I tried to, but I couldn't say it. But I thought that they already guess because Ramon try to guess it while asking me and I subconsciously nodded

So that night, when they arrived at the mess hall with Felix, the gloomy feelings in everyone's heart permeated the air as everyone eat in silence
