Like the still that comes after a storm the place was saddled with silence, glances exchanged and no one was ready to speak.

“How is that possible?” Gerow finally spoke up, his words echoing like a loud shatter in the hall.

Soon chatters filled the hall as everyone couldn’t wait to hear how the disgrace of an Eddie was able to get such a beautiful lady in his clutches.

Even though the words that she just spewed from her mouth sent shockwaves down Eddie’s spine, he was able to assume a really strange calm as he went further to say.

But before he could get to spit out a word from his mouth, Sophia walked elegantly to him, crawling her hands into his wrist.

“Perfect together as couples right?” she said.

Though her words were thrown into the air, it caused a sudden stair in the hall.

Another gasp escaped from their lips. Clara who had always assumed a really strange calm could feel herself boiling over with rage.

The jealousy already creeping down her spine as all the attention that was

    There was a sense of awkwardness as Eddie replaced his phone in his pocket and shifted his gaze to Sophia.The anger that had flooded through his blood earlier met with a sudden calm."So you were saying something?" Eddie said.Sophia moved closer towards him, but before she could get to say anything, his ears picked up a really strange vibration.He waved his hands, pushing her to a forced stop as he listened closer.The sense of the vibration oozed through his legs and the beeping sound seemed to increase."Can you hear that?" He inquired. But no matter how much Sophia listened, she could not pick out any sound and she shook her head.Eddie drew a really deep sigh. "How worthless for me to have asked in the first place." He thought.Eddie decided to trace the direction of this strange sound and it drew him closer and closer towards the car.His face lit up at the discovery of what it was. A ticking time bomb had been placed on her car.As the velocity of the beeping sound increase

    For a while, no one spoke and only glances were exchanged between the both of them until they could hear the steady beats of their racing hearts.When the silence finally became unbearable, Eddie finally decided to speak up."Whoever sent them must have a lot to hide and most be very powerful too for a group of men to end their lives just to protect a deep secret." He said.Eddie had been in the world of martials acts for quite a while and that situation had only evolved only in a few cases.Even though Sophia went down memory lane, it was still difficult for her to pinpoint anyone who would eagerly want her dead."And this was our only chance of getting to know who is behind all of this." She said as a slight sigh escaped from her mouth."I think this is the right clue in the direction of where you should be searching for," Eddie said. His words embroidering the sense of a highly intelligent agent.But his words only got Sophia more confused than she was already. If there was anythi

    Back at Clara's family Villa. Clara was still furious after everything that had happened earlier. She had known Eddie for three straight years and had not believed that he could do such a thing. "I warned you earlier." Juliet pulled forward towards her. "He was only trying to hide his temperament all these while because you guys were married. Now that you are divorced, I think he is having a hard time doing that." After thinking about it, it turned out that she never knew the man that she had been married to all this while. "My pity goes to that lady that's been coined by him. But soon, she is certainly going to regret it." Gerow said, her picture still lingering in his mind. But Juliet who was jealous of her flashy building and high aura hissed loudly. "She deserves every single thing that she is going to get. Not like she wasn't warned. A stubborn fly will always follow the corpse to its grave." "Just can't stop imagining the looks on her face when she gets to know who Eddie

    "If you want someone to join you for dinner , why don't you just say it?" Eddie thought."No!!!" Eddie rejected her offer bluntly, pulling away from her afterwards. There was a weird expression on her face as she paired at him from behind. But from the looks on her face, it was obvious that she was not yet done with him."I can't trust anyone in my list of bodyguards anymore." She said, as she counted her steps towards him."What makes you think that you can trust me?" He inquired further with a pause staring right into her eyes.There seemed to be a shared intimacy between them."I don't know. But I just do." She replied."It's still a no." Eddie said coldlySophia gritted her teeth under her breath. Even in her angry state, she still embroidered every sense of being classy."Just think about it, if anything happens to you, who will get you the Golden tail herb?" She said from afar and he pulled her step.She seemed to have pulled a string on him. Anything could happen, not his herb

    Juliet gritted her teeth both with irritation and jealousy, wishing that she could leave a few scratches on that beautiful face of Sophia.But they were in the Young family business group turf, and they could not cause any form of troubles there."I would have thought so, you will always be hiding under a lady. When are you ever going to have something of your own?" Gerow laughed at him.“Just take a look at Gerow here. He got the tickets without any form of stress. That's the definition of a real man, not someone hiding under a ladies skirt.” Juliet muttered.But Eddie was not moved by the words. “I thought you went through to high school and you can differentiate a kid from a man?”“How dare you.” Gerow thundered at him.“I know the truth his bitter but don't try to remove the speck from my eyes my darling. When your stop hiding under the clutches of your father's company, then you can talk to me.”A smile hovered on Sophia's lips. Eddie was more than able to stand his ground with

    Clara, Gerow, and Juliet sat down together as they watched the dancer to swing their bodies to the flow of the music.But Clara was hardly looking at them, her mind focused on the cooperation. Her company was the youngest among those that were chosen for the nominationThe possibility that they were going to get it was very low. Her heart raced with anticipation.Juliet could sense the worries in her eyes as she turned over to her."Are you okay?" She inquired but Clara nodded her head to signal that she was fine. But Juliet already knew Clara better than to lie to her."You are worried about the cooperation aren't you?" She said slightly.Just then, Eddie made his way into the hall. He was already done with Sophia and wanted to enjoy the rest of the evening but too bad for him, his seat was structured right before Clara's.Juliet's teeth twisted with so much disdain as she went ahead to say."Must you always junk yourself into us?" He replied."You guys said I attract poverty the oth

    The news was like a thousand spikes running through her nerves, her motions paralyzed on a spot.Juliet's face flooded with sweat. Her heart was pounding even after but all her attention was more confused on Clara.Juliet was worried that something terrible was going to happen to her so she quickly pulled over to Sophia, her face washed up with a confused expression."Clara, Clara, are you okay?" She called out.Even Gerow was confused thinking that they were finally going to figure it out, but it turned out that their hatred exceeded all boundaries.Juliet turned over to Eddie with a deadly snare that was enough to snap anyone off from their breaths and thundered at him."It's all your fault." Her voice re-echoed in the hall.Eddie was confused and angry at the same time but it was easy to know that Juliet wasn't worth someone getting angry about."How is it my fault?" He replied with a twitch in his facial expression while Juliet was still blowing hot red with anger. "You were the

    Gerow was confused as to what they were talking about. A few minutes ago, he left them in such a sorry state but coming back, they were buzzing with excitement."What do you mean?" Gerow inquired, lost in the realms of his confusion.But Juliet's lips shifted into a really broad smile afterward. "You are so modest Gerow. After doing so much, you act as though it's nothing. You can help us to appreciate your Dad for the help." She beamed with a smile.Gerow was able to connect the two events and he understood nothing about what they were talking about."It's just a little issue that my dad could take care of with a call or two. It was nothing much so I didn't feel there was any worth telling your guys about it." He seemed to be calm but on the inside, he was swelling with pride.Even though he knew nothing about what had happened. The offer had been placed right before him, how could he reject such kindness?Clara's face brightened. She felt stupid for thinking that Eddie had anythi

Leo who was still groaning in pain was able to look far ahead at exactly what was happening.Their hearts flustered at the sight of it and their gazes froze almost in instant. Especially Leo.He was the one that had received a blow from this man and could tell exactly how powerful it was.Could it be that Eddie knew about martial arts and had been able to stop that blow with his strength.Leo quickly threw the thoughts of that away from his head. There was certainly no way that it was possible so It could only mean that the man had noy used his full strength in that attack."Don't worry! I don't want you dead yet!"

    The astonishment that ran through his body knew no bounds at the moment. Leo could swear that those moves were amateurish and his men could have been able to take it out in a heartbeat."I'm sure that they were just way too relaxed after the first set was defeated!" He muttered."You saw that man. Even though they are babies at this! You all have to be serious!" Leo announced loud enough for all of them to hear.But the men that were guarding Eddie scoffed and laughed at these words instead."Serous? With those bunch of fools that were barely able to pull a few martial arts skills?" One of them muttered in between their laughter."I was so sure that Michael was no good and his end was going to be here. I just didn't think that it was going to come pretty soon." The guy with the blue band expressed his disappointment."I'm sure that if I had been given enough of a chance, I would have been able to take all of them with both eyes closed. But here I am, guarding this piece of bodily tr

    Eddie and the driver hesitated a little bit. Their eyes flashing at multiple instances until Leo finally flashed back at them with a glare."Didn't you understand what I just said? I want you to take cover!" He almost yelled at them.His youthful vigor gradually rose up within him, wanting to be done with the threat before him as soon as possible before heading back to be congratulated.The driver whose legs betrayed the heroic looks to his face slowly turned to Eddie, whispering into his ears."This place isn't safe anymore. I really think that we should leave." He muttered with his voice shuttering at the end.Edward remains calm by all means, keeping a straight face."Worry about yourself!" He muttered. "Take cover elsewhere, I will be just fine. I don't think that it will ever get to something that I won't be able to handle!" He replied, his voice dripping with confidence.The men even in their best in an attempt to hold back their laughter could not let it out in an instant."W

    Eddie, sure that he has seen this man with Sophia before, didn't try to hide his disdained smile.."Yeah! I work with Miss Sophia's intervention team. Our lady asked me to help you out." Leo said with a smile."Cho! Do you really think that I sent all these men to take out a weak fellow like you? Do the calms bro, If I wanted you dead, you would have been dead already." Leo noted with a hint of amusement.Eddie eased his tense shoulders, sure from his movement that he wasn't there for any harm.But his last words made him scoffed. All of them would not take him out even with both his eyes closed.However, there was no extent proving a point to this stranger.Eddie turned around towards the stranger who was still in his fighting position and said with another low sigh."No one is going to do anything to you. You can pull out that thing that you are doing." Eddie almost let out his frustration."Are you sure?" The driver trusted Eddie but that bald man that was once hooded, he so didn'

    Eddie's expression did not twitch even for a single moment, even though he didn't know anything about what the driver was talking about."Unlike most people, I was expecting a shocking expression on your face but you are acting so calm?" The driver felt strange with this man in his car.The only reason that he had gotten him was because of his urgent need for money.He has a wife and two kids to take care of. However, due to the recent happenings around the place, he was forced to put off business.But how long was he going to bear it for? The breath of the driver was sucked into his lungs as he thought about his wife bleeding to me now to leave.However, if he stayed, he was assured that they were going to starve to death."I know that you are worried. You shouldn't be. If there is any problem, I will be more than enough to defend myself and you." Eddie said, resting backward.A strain of astonishment jerked through his body. He was only worried and didn't even know it yet this man
