“I would prefer to be alone”, Eden replied, not willing to stare at Laurel who was looking at him intently.Laurel took in a deep breath and stayed mute. They seemed to be lost in their thoughts and after what seemed like ages, she finally spoke up.“I think I should tell you that I’m the only one you can trust in all of these. This mission is so hard and you need me to help you in it”, Laurel said, trying so hard to sound convincing.Eden scoffed and turned his head to look at her for a minute. Memories of how Eliana had told him to keep watch and observe Laurel came rushing into his head and for a minute, he was blank on what to say or how to react.“You were with Matthia earlier”, Eden said to Laurel who widened her eyes in surprise.She never thought that he would see her and at this point, she tried to think of the best answer to give to him.“Well…I saw the news that trended about you and how you turned out to be a mafia lord. I knew that Matthia must have caused it”, Laurel exp

They got to Arnold’s house and Eden quickly made his way to the secret room which he had seen the drawing on the paper.Laurel followed him closely, with a book and paper in her hands since she had become his business manager.Eden had only given her that role since he wouldn’t want her to feel so lonely. Eliana wasn’t in the house and Osvaldo had died.Giving her that job would be a form of therapy to help her relieve her misery. That was his thoughts and idea…Laurel tried so hard to hide the excitement that was burning within her. She couldn’t recall the last time she felt this elated and this was because she was close to finding a treaure that would change the course of her life forever.Eden picked out a paper and pen which he had in his pockets, causing Laurel’s eyes to widen in surprise.She stared at him intently, trying to decipher why he had a paper and pen in his hands when she was there to record things with him.Eden only smiled at her and got busy with what he was doing.

Eliana was in her room one morning, pondering over everything that had happened in past few days. A big frown made way to her face when she recalled the video Osvaldo made and how difficult it was to believe everything that was currently unfolding.Just then, she heard a small knock on her door. Her heart skipped as she went over to the bag of the door and grabbed a log of wood she had gotten to serve as a weapon.The village was quite small, but still, with enough reasons to be in fright. The warning letter she received from the minute she stepped foot in the village simply made her realize the need to be extremely careful.“Who’s there?” Eliana asked, with her hands tightly on the log of wood.“It’s the woman you spoke with yesterday. Hope I’m welcomed?” She asked from the other end of the door.Eliana took in a deep breath and opened up the door, quickly dropping the weapon at the corner to avoid looking paranoid.The woman walked into the room and looked around, with Eliana lookin

Eliana returned back to the country after being sure that she had a grip of what the treasure entailed. She had the key that looked like what Eden wanted in her possession and that prompted her to return home to meet with him.She had a lot going through her mind, a lot of things to say to him and also, a lot of plans for Laurel. She knew that she had to think of what to do about Laurel, even if she was her sister and at such, promised to reveal everything to Eden who would help her out.Eden walked into the room to meet Eliana sitting on the couch and lost in thoughts. He had been at his company when he heard the news of her return. That caused him to head back to the house, even if he was barely done with what he was doing.“Eliana!” Eden called out in surprise as he walked over to her and pulled her into a warm hug.Eliana smiled at him and took in a deep breath. It’s been a rough couple of days in her life, but she was glad that Eden was fine and great.“I’m glad to see you again.

Eliana walked up to Eden and together, they gazed at the young boy who was currently claiming to be Osvaldo’s son.Eden scoffed as he shook his head in disdain. It wasn’t surprising to see young boys who would come over to claim people as their fathers since they had nothing else to do.“This is not a place where you walk into to throw jokes. I would advice you to walk out of here before I get mad at you!” Eden yelled angrily while Eliana tried to calm him down.It was very strange to see such happening, especially when it wasn’t close to what they thought of or imagined.“Who’s your father, young boy?” Eliana asked and this made him to start laughing aloud. He gestured for some other men who were obviously hiding somewhere around the gate.The men were heavily built, with guns in their hands.Eden’s men made to strike, but Eliana signaled on them to hold on.The men walked over to the young boy who seemed to be their leader or master.“Tell them how old I am”, the young boy said to o
