24 hours later.

Andrew opened his eyes from a heavy sleep. He wasn't tired, because there was nothing he was doing.

He had this sharp pain run through his body due to a long sleep, more like a hangover from a hard drink.

He stepped down from his bed with a slight body stretch. He walked to the bathroom and he had his body washed.

On coming out, his phone started ringing, Andrew reached for his phone. He discovered it was his father.

“Hello!” He said with a loud voice.

“Hello! Son, how are you faring over there?” He asked him.

He sighed. “I am completely fine, father! How is your side over there?” He asked without an inch of excitement.

“My side is perfectly fine. I just want to check on you, so you won't feel abandoned,” he said to him.

At that same minute, something came to his mind. “Thank you, father! But I will need your help!” He said to him.

His father was surprised. “My help! What is the problem?” He echoed.

“Do you have a private investigator that can work with me here?” He as

    Andrew sent his coordinates to him. Soon, he kept his phone and he remained silent.The bodyguard that was asked to stop him started mocking him.“As it seems no one is coming to your aid. What a shame!” He echoedAndrew didn't bother saying a word. He had this cold and hard gaze. While he was just watching them, Maxwell felt that moment was his best time to shine. He walked out of there at once.Not quite long, he walked into his presence.“Mr Andrew, I guess you're stuck here!” He said with a grin.Andrew swallowed the saliva in his mouth. “I am not stuck, I am just watching you,” he said to him.Maxwell exhaled. “Still acting like you don't care!” He echoed. Andrew kept watching him without saying a word.“When I heard about you, cowardice wasn't added to your amiable traits. But now, I can't believe you can't even say a word,” he said to him.Andrew smirked. “I am just looking at the rate of your foolishness,” he replied to him.Maxwell's face brightened with shock.

    Andrew left there victoriously. When he got home, he stepped down from his car. He walked into the mansion.“You are welcome, Young master!” One of his stewards welcomed him.Andrew exhaled. “Thank you!” He said without really halting. He walked into his room at once.Getting there, what happened began to replay in his mind one after the other. He began to see everything in his head.He wondered how he would have been ridiculed if his men didn't show up at that time. “Damn!” He knew Maxwell would make a mockery of him.“I need to take steps!” He thought in his head.Due to what happened, Andrew decided to take steps that would get him the project he wanted even if it was by force.Andrew was bent on not allowing him to win.While he was still thinking, Rio had gotten into the country.Soon, Andrew's phone began to ring out. That distracted him from his thoughts.He checked his phone and when he saw it was Rio, he picked up.“Hello!” He said to him.“Hello sir! I am in town. Where shou

    “Jane, the lady that followed me here, had been missing for some days now. I don't know where she went to, not even the exact time she went out. I need you to find her,” he paused his breath.Rio exhaled. That wasn't too tedious for him. “I can get that done within a twinkle of an eye. What next?” He asked him.Andrew was pleased with that reply. “Okay! There is the man that is in charge of an oil project that I want so badly, but he is proving too difficult. I tried to make him my ally and that proved so abortive. So, I need you to get me all his dirty little secrets, so I can have him at my disposal,” he said to him.Rio swallowed the saliva in his mouth. He saw that would be a little difficult. With the way Andrew spoke about it, he knew that person would be powerful. “This will be a very difficult one but that doesn't mean I can't get it all. You will just have to give me more time,” he said to him.“That's not a problem, but you don't have all the time in the world. I need this j

    The next day.Rio opened his eyes after a short sleep. He slept late at night due to contact thoughts and several reflections on his past.He stepped from his bed and headed to the bathroom after pulling his clothings. He freshened up.Rio walked out of the bathroom. He got hold of some clothing pieces. “This is good for the day!” He thought in his head.He wore that cloth and he also put on his shoe. He was ready to go outside, but still, he needed to fill his belly.He stepped out of his house and had his door shut. He had picked up his gun and a short knife to guide himself if things got ugly. He knew how deadly the mission he was given, but still, he must carry it out. Andrew had given him a document filled with all the details he should know about Jane. Andrew didn't know much about Jane, but the little information he got from his hacker was enough to set up a person's character.Rio arrived at an average restaurant. He took his seat.Few minutes later, a waiter approached him.

    Rio was amazed about that kind of technology. He had heard a little about that before but he didn't believe such a thing existed. Now that he was hearing about it again, it was intriguing.“So, you mean the microbot would help us look for her?” He wanted to confirm what he heard.Raymond nodded his head positively. “Yes, you won't even need to stress yourself,” he said to him.Something came to the mind of Rio immediately. “Okay! But how would you know when they find the target?” He asked him.Raymond smiled. “That's quite easy. You don't have a problem at all. You will be given a Bluetooth where all you need to know would be given to you as a message,” he said to him.Rio understood his point. “That's quite clever of it but how fast is it?” He asked him.Raymond looked at his friend. “You know I can't give you something that would take forever. Although It is costly, in 24 hours your target would be found because millions of the microbots would be sent into the city,” he said to him.

    Andrew exhaled. He looked through the corner of his eyes. At least he believed he would tell the truth if it was a lie.“I am not telling lies. I know that face too well,” Rio added the pressure.Andrew swallowed the saliva in his mouth, “okay. Is that what you want to say to me?” He asked him.Rio exhaled. He detached his eyes from his. “It is not only that,” he said to him.Now, Andrew was curious. “Okay! I am all ears,” he said. Andrew wanted to know all.“Okay! I have a few findings to make. I want to ask if you have any other information about the enemy of Miss Jane,” he said to him.Andrew glanced at him. “Why are you looking for other information about his enemy?” He asked him.Rio looked at Andrew. “It is needed now to uncover the only one person that could have planned to kidnap her. With the information with me, there is no person I can personally say is her enemy or friend,” he explained to him.“This is rather so difficult,” Andrew spelt out of his mouth expressly.Rio ga

    On hearing that, Andrew swallowed the saliva he had in his mouth. He shot a glance at Rio.“This is a bigger problem. How do we even save him from Maxwell, the owner of the Jin empire,” he said to him.Rio exhaled. “That would be a very big problem. How do we even get to check his domain just to find them,” he said to him.Andrew thought about it. He looked at Rio, “I think you will have to take it very seriously from here on,” he told him.Rio nodded his head without really saying a word. After a moment of silence, he said, “what will be his punishment for betraying you?” He asked him.Andrew sighed. “For now, I won't punish him, because I have a bigger mission for him. I hope he will be able to carry that out for me,” he said to him.He sighed. “I will gladly do that for sure!” He said to him.Andrew exhaled. “You see, you have been a source of strength to Mr Maxwell but now I want you to change to his source of weakness,” he said to him.He didn't get it fully. “I don't really und

    “Hello, it's Franklin on the line,” he said with a loud voice.“Hello, any information already?” Maxwell asked him.“Yes! I have just succeeded in moving in with Mr Andrew,” he said to him.Maxwell was surprised. “Huh! That's impressive,” he said with a loud voice, but back in his heart, “is that not a lion's den?” Maxwell was scared on behalf of him.“Yes! So, from now on, I will know about all his movements and I will update you,” he said to him.“Okay! That's not a problem!” He said to him.“Okay!” Franklin hung up the call.Andrew exhaled. He glanced at him coldly. “Just be very very careful. I will take my leave now,” he said to him.“Okay!”……….Rio had gone on his way to continue the investigation, although it wasn't an easy one but it was rather difficult to progress easily.He boarded a cab which took him to his house. He had to load himself with different arms before he proceeded to take charge.This time, he knew he would have to investigate Maxwell closely since Andrew co

She was even more infuriated by this, ‘how dare he stand up for that bastard’ she thought. “Oh, you don't want me to insult him but Kate is also your daughter, didn't you think you are being partial by obviously supporting Andrew over her.” “This is not about support, it's about evidence.

    Seeing the smile on Andrew's face, Richmond wanted to punch straight in the face but he gritted his teeth, “of course not Mr Roger, can't I walk around in this office?”Andrew's expression suddenly changed, “you've tried this action, not only on me but you've done it to be where you are today. I must say you are really good at it, getting all this wealth from someone through contracts, the way you hide is top notch but not just good enough.” Andrew said, looking straight at Richmond. Richmond shivered uncontrollably, he knew Andrew must've found out something about him but he didn't know what he found out. “What do you mean by that?” Richmond said trying to sound like his normal self but he knew staying longer will only lead to his detriment but what could he do. If he ran, he would be caught, but if he did not run, his life would be ruined.

    Richmond, a maniac as Lillian would consider him, proved her right with constant beating and non stop abuse. As she thought about these thongs, she suddenly felt short of breath, immediately she brought her head out of the water.Breathing heavily, she finished what she was doing and got out of the bathtub.
