191: A Gift
Levi almost facepalmed. Why did he answer the call just now? He completely forgot hiding the incident away from his wife.Lincoln smirked slowly. It was the first time he was seeing his stoic and annoying cousin looking so flustered. It seems he can only be like this in front of his wife.Since the opportunity exposed itself, why not take advantage of it?"I'm talking to you!" Brooklyn brushed off the hair strands on her face and pulled her chair closer to look into the phone screen.Lincoln hid the smirk on his face and put on a pitiful look. With a little wave with the free hand that wasn't connected to the IV, he said, "Hello cousin in-law."His voice was low. She almost didn't hear him but when the words registered in her head, her eyes widened."W-what?" She stuttered. Levi really facepalmed now and looked down at Lincoln darkly to which the latter gave a sheepish look.Is this his revenge for not calling him cousin? Damn this bastard."What... are... you..."Levi turned away with

192: Regret
Zoey stepped into the house and saw Micheal on the phone with a dark look. She halted; he seemed to already know.Just as she was watching him quietly, she heard him plead into the phone. "Mr Scott, I promise this will be different. You were my father's best partner back then. How could you doubt me? Why don't you trust me for my father's sake?"Perhaps he had accidentally put on the loudspeaker mode of the phone because Zoey could hear the recipient of the call respond,"Young master Tyson, it's not that I don't trust your capability but the time chairman used to run the company is over. I am not the only important decision maker in my company. They won't agree to pool funds into a start-up business."Micheal gritted his teeth. He understood what the man was trying to say indirectly. He meant to say since his father already stepped down, the business couldn't survive under his control and it was sold off.Now his company wouldn't gamble investing funds into his business ideas.This w

193: Not Guilty
The commander in chief personally received Levi and his companions after hearing of their visit to the city's station."Mr Lloyd, it's been a while. To whom do I owe this visit?"The commander had a good impression of him after the last incident involving Diana's arrest and how he had resolved the case all alone.His only regret was that Dominique's influence was so great that he was quickly released afterwards after pulling some strings."I have only come to have a word with someone. Your subordinates are already aware of this. I do not wish to disturb the commander," Levi responded politely."It's fine. I'll have someone take you to the receiving room immediately," The commander immediately rang up the phone and called an officer.After watching their casual exchange, Davis was surprised that Levi even knew the commander in chief.They were led to the interrogation room where the accused was already waiting. Because of their previous agreement, only Levi was let into the receiving r

194: Reunion Dinner
Levi removed his shades as he got out of the car. He seemed to have different shades for every day. His impassive gaze darted around a large research institute.He didn't expect this would be the headquarters of the investigators team. The chief who was already awaiting his arrival walked up to him."Good day sir," They exchanged pleasantries and a handshake then the chief led them into the institute.There were two other private investigators Levi recognized as the spies he had met at SK. He nodded at them politely."I didn't expect you would call so soon," The chief stated. He was a bit disappointed at the call earlier because he thought Levi had a change of heart and finally wanted to join their investigative team.But turns out it was something else. The chief sighed regretfully. Levi misunderstood his sigh because he bowed slightly and apologized,"I apologize for the inconvenience, sir.""Ha, it's nothing," The chief shook his head. "As soon as you sent the information, I had my

195: Reunion Dinner <ii>
"Levi, meet Natalia's parents, Juan and Teresa," Grandfather Hernandez introduced the other unfamiliar couple.Levi bowed politely and greeted. "Welcome aunt and uncle. How was the trip home?"As he sat down, he quickly noticed Juan looked nothing similar to Luis aside from sharing some physical features.Juan was actually looking quite younger and suave. He also dressed like a foreigner to indicate someone who's been away for a long time.Unlike Yolanda, Teresa had a kind face with a little smile that didn't seem faux. Infact, her smile widened as she acknowledged his greetings."Good. We've heard quite a bit about you. Mother and father wouldn't stop talking about you. Thank you for taking care of them in our absence."Levi felt a bit embarrassed and offered her a smile back. "It's nothing. We are family.""I didn't expect my strong-willed niece would actually settle down someday. I was surprised when I heard about you. I even felt curious to see the man my niece has deemed fit to s

196: Music Contest
Levi's eyes dilated as his hand holding the phone up faltered. "What the fuck," He completed, repeating his sentence.Brooklyn was sitting on the bed with legs crossed and wrapped in a kind of red gift nylon. She even had a cute bow made out of the gift nylon on her head as she scrolled through her phone.When she heard his voice, she looked up and smiled widely. "Hello hubby... Surprise."Levi's eyes narrowed. This... Was this the surprise she mentioned over the phone? She didn't even inform him she was coming."Brother! Brother, are you still there?" Diana's loud voice attracted his attention again.With his dark eyes still fixated on Brooklyn, he tugged at his tie. "Mmm mhm... I heard you and I'll be there. Not only me. Your sister-in-law will be there too.""Br—" Before the puzzled Diana could ask anymore questions, he ended the call."When did you arrive?""Just a few hours ago."Levi's eyes darkened and he stripped. Brooklyn suddenly felt a sense of danger. "You... Why are you l

198: Diana's Performance
"Hello?" As soon as Levi got away from the auditorium, he answered the call. His other hand slipped into his pocket gingerly as he waited for a response."Hello, Mr Levi."His creased brows eased when he heard Nate's voice."I wanted to call you before I turned my phone off. I'm finally going to England.... Mr Levi, I'll be participating in the tournament... Although others have gone far, I am confident I can still catch up... How do I start thanking you?"Levi could hear the tears in Nate's voice as he rambled. He smiled, "I didn't expect our champ to be so timid and easily shaken. You should be filled with so much vigor not thinking about unpleasant things... You are going to England to win that trophy home.""I'm not crying... I promise I'm not crying... I just want to say thank you... You don't know..." Nate apparently couldn't complete his words because his throat was clogged with tears.If it wasn't for Levi's assistance, he would have gone to jail for a crime he didn't commit.

199: Opposing Results
"Welcome back everyone. We have come to the end of this event and it is time for the judges to relay the result of the contest to us."The crowd clapped as the microphone was given to Oliver Brooks. He was the oldest amongst the judges and had been given the opportunity to reveal the result.Levi waited a bit impatiently as he called names of lucky contestants who had made it to the top ten.However, he had already called the names of seven runner-ups but Diana's name hasn't been mentioned."The winner of the third position of this musical contest is—" He called the name of the first contestant that had played the violin and the crowd cheered."I told you... Sister-in-law is going to win the first position. I have to capture this moment," Brooklyn nudged him excitedly before switching on her phone."The winner of the second position who has managed to dazzle us all with her outstanding performance is Diana Campbell!""Yay, that's my girl!" Hannah cheered loudly."I thought the first p

200: Who Is He?
"It's just a small contest and some tricks have already been pulled. I wonder what would happen at a bigger contest," Levi snorted."Sir, we have sent for Miss Evelyn and her niece. We apologize. We will resolve this matter immediately," The college Dean pleaded.If this matter was to escalate and get to the public's knowledge, the college's reputation would be affected."Brother, why are you—" Diana's whispers were cut off with a fierce gaze from Levi.Shortly afterwards, the door opened and a staff member stepped in with Evelyn sashaying. Sophia was behind her.Diana actually liked Evelyn and didn't want to throw a fuss and damage her image in front of her idol but Levi wasn't having any of that."Dean, what's wrong? We were almost leaving when—""Miss Evelyn, I apologize for the inconvenience caused but one of the contestants has demanded the result be reviewed again."Sophia already noticed Diana and rolled her eyes. 'Why is it you again?'"And who dares to doubt our judgment?" Ha
