"You're not joking?" Mark asked, unable to believe what he had just heard. "No. Now if you don't mind, please get to work on what I just said and see if you can find any leads." "Right away, sir." He replied, threw his hands at his back and stood at ease. "Good," Levi nodded his head and walked away. It was a long day and he couldn't wait for the entire drama to be over. He was putting the lives of people that he cared about at risk and that did not allow his heart or mind to be at rest. He met no one in the palour and assumed that they had all gone to different rooms. Sighing, he trodded down to his bedroom only to find Jake by the hallway. "There you are, I was waiting for you. Tell me what happened," he asked. "What happened with what?" Levi puzzled. "Don't play the fool with me. What happened with Mark. What did you guys discuss?""Okay now. You don't have to worry yourself about all that. Look just go to bed and we will talk in the morning okay?" He tapped on his shoulde

"What do you mean by he is nowhere to be found?" Jayden asked. He couldn't lose him. He was so close to finally closing this case and getting the promotion he needed and now the prime suspect was no where to be found? He couldn't let that happen. "We can't find him anywhere in the house sir." "Did you check the basement? Where I told you the suspect is being held?" Jayden inquired. "Yes, I checked everywhere. Used the password you gave me to gain access to the room and finally got it open but I still can't find him. He cleared out the basement." "And what about the suspect? Where is he?" "There is no one in the basement. If there was a suspect there before, he isn't there anymore." "What?!" Levi asked. "I saw him yesterday evening. How could he be gone?" He didn't understand what was going on. Couldn't wrap his head around everything he was hearing.Brittany stood with open mouth, wondering if truly the policeman was right and Mark was actually the person behind it all. But ho

"Well, what did he say?" Brittany asked once she saw Levi walk into the room. "He said that we can't just arrest her like that. We need solid prove because of the kind of parents she has," Levi said and took a seat on the brown sofa that beautified the sitting room. "Wait, I am still confused. Who exactly is this girl?" Jake asked. He didn't like the fact that he was slowly getting lost with everything that was going on. So much information was running by him without him noticing. Levi hesitated and took a look at Jake's face and knew he couldn't lie to his best friend. Hesitantly, he said "It's Davina." "What?!" Jake exclaimed. "Davina McCall? The girl you told me about from the auction? The same Davina that wants you?" "Yes. She fits perfectly well into all those description. She is the one after me. I figured it out few hours ago actually. Somehow, she is always around where we get attacked and she always have one flimsy excuse or the other. I mean, she was there at the hospit

Brittany looked dumfounded. If she was shocked, she did a very good job at hiding it but then again, Levi wasn't looking for facial expressions. After all, Jayden did not attach anything like a camera to his body. All he wanted was for the woman to use her words and say something that may implicate her. "What do you mean by that?" And maybe she knew because she was taking forever to say anything he could use against her. "My bodyguard. He just up and left when I needed him the most. I feel like he is part of the people working against me." "Now, why would he be working against you?" "Maybe he is being paid more money by my enemies than I am. Or maybe his loyalty is just with another person. Do you get what I mean?" Brittany took a sip of her champagne that the waiter just finished pouring and nodded her head. "Well the solution is quite simple. Just get a new bodyguard then." "It's not that easy to replace someone. You should know that." "So why was it so easy for you to repl

"Jayden told me that it was okay to come in." Brittany said as she poked her head into the room. "Yeah,it is actually." Levi stood up as Brittany walked into the room."I'm sorry for talking to you the way I did. You did not deserve such negative treatment. I should have been easy on you. It wasn't your fault that what happened, happened." "You need to understand that I was just worried about you. I just wanted to help and staying alone in that house wasn't going to help you. Or so I thought.""Well, it doesn't really matter right now. I am happy that you are here," he said and pulled her in for a hug. Brittany rested on his chest, listening to his heart beat. She had missed how soothing it normally was to her ears. She couldn't believe how she survived for so long without it."I missed you," she finally said the words she held on for so long. "I missed you too," Levi said with a soft smile, gladdening Brittany's heart. She couldn't believe he was actually saying those words to he
