It didn't take long for Lexi to find another door in the house. It was just fifteen feet from the room she was confined to. The door was old; dry blood was over the door, alongside old, worn-out clothes. Lexi placed her ear against the door, hoping to hear anything, but she didn't. She reached out to unlock the door with her pin but hesitated. Since the room was just like hers, she wondered if someone was inside. Clenching her fist, she dug in the pin and unlocked the door.The room wasn't treated like Lexi's. It was brighter, and it had beds and chairs unlike hers.A lady was sitting on the bed. She had a book in her hand, and Lexi's eyes widened when she saw the lady's hand. It was like a large part of her hand was cut off. It was like someone did it on purpose, which he did, with a sharp blade.She was missing an arm too.Blood was dripping from the spot, yet the lady acted like it was nothing and kept on reading the book.What has he done to the lady? At this rate, she was goi

"Thanks for helping us catch the criminals again,” Luke muttered, smiling at Perseus. “We have been searching for them, but now you caught them all by yourself. Have you seen Lexi? I thought she might be with you. She mentioned something about finally getting to the den of Killer D; I thought it was him if you hadn’t called. It turns out she made a mistake; it wasn’t Killer D after all.”Perseus' eyes darted to the van that the cops had come with. He found them shoving Blake, who was yelling as he struggled to get into the van. After holding that knife around his neck, Blake hadn’t hesitated to pick it up.He surrendered without a fight, and Perseus wasn’t able to test his abilities after all. A cop waved at Luke, making him look away from Perseus. The cop indicated that he had gotten all the men in the van, and Luke nodded.The cop hopped into the car and drove off. Sighing, Luke turned his gaze back to Perseus, but the place was empty. Perseus wasn’t in sight; it was like he wasn’t

Eris facepalmed herself, seeing that Sherry had just spilled the words she had been hiding.“You know about it?” Perseus questioned. “I didn't remember telling you anything about it.”Her hand flew to her lips as she realized that she had revealed what she had wanted him to tell her himself. “Does knowing about it change the fact that you put her life at risk? She is a cop, not a detective.”“It wasn’t me,” Perseus responded. “All I did was save her. That bastard kidnapped her and took her to his den. I went there to save her.”Her brows rose. “Then where were you? We have been awake and gotten over our hangover, and you are just coming back home.”“I wasn’t late.” “You were; it is 6 a.m.’’Perseus glanced at his wristwatch; the time was 6:12 a.m. He had no idea the time had gone by so fast due to Iris nagging him to use the car and not run all the way home. He reluctantly agreed and only got stuck in the traffic on his way back home.“I went over to a friend's place.” He said, tryin

"Yes, I am. They posted on their website and social media that the game would be released. Since my son was the one who made the characters, he recognized the similarities between them and informed me about it.” “Going through it and studying their new game. I figured out that it matched the presentation that Ms. Wyatt gave. I still don't have enough evidence to prove that they stole it, but Ms. Wyatt might.” Perseus was already drafting his idea in his head. He kind of has an idea of what to do in such a situation.“I will be at the company today,” Perseus announced. “Where is the vice president?” He had just recently learned that the company had a vice president since he had only met the manager at the time he went to the company. Although he hadn't seen the vice president in person, he could tell that the company had chosen the right person. “The vice president?” Jackson asked with amusement in his voice. “I thought you knew about her traveling on a business trip on your behal

“Good morning, President Damon.” Vince greeted her, brushing past her and attending to Perseus. “Not that you are here; I will escort you to the conference room.” 'He is the president?’ The lady asked herself. ‘'I thought he was going to be an old man. He is too young to be president and handsome too.’Perseus' eyes darted to the lady behind them. 'Iris, who is that?’[She is Adrianna Viscount. The Vice President of this company and your assistant.][I guess that Vince wants to have the position of your assistant because he finds it easy.]Adrianna walked over to Perseus with her head held high. She didn't hesitate to shoot Vince with a glare. “Good morning, President.” She greeted him. “I'm the Vice President, Arianna Viscount. I was the one who texted you earlier about the meeting being in thirty minutes. I am here to escort you and tell you about the recent activities.``Perseus nodded at her. “Feed me on the recent activities as we head in.” Arianna grinned at Vince. “Yes, pres
