"How long would this torture last!" Eric grumbled from where he sat as he played with his phone.It had been a week since the banquet incident, other than sitting here all day long, he had no other job. As for Cisco, he was yet to finish writing the program though he was halfway done.Besides, since the incident, Chole had become much colder as it seemed like she looked down on him. And as for Natalie, if not for the fact that he had been avoiding her, she would have challenged him.Thankfully, she and Chole seemed to be busy over the past week as a result everything was at a bare minimum. This as a result had made Eric quite bored and frustrated.Apart from all these, he had made Zero improvements, he couldn't call Evelyn as he was afraid of her outburst even though she owed him two favors. And as for Chole and Natalie, they were like two immovable mountains.He just couldn't think of a way to subdue them in just three months. Well, then he had stopped thinking about it. Since there
"So where are we headed?" Eric asked, looking at Evelyn who was sitting beside him right after he had gotten into the Van.The other policemen just smiled and nodded at Eric, they had already known that he had a close relationship with their captain and was very capable so they weren't in an objection when Evelyn told them she was going to bring him along."Well then we uncovered the Den of some human traffickers, so we are heading to the place right now," Evelyn replied."Human traffickers?" Eric frowned as his expression changed."Yeah, they are not only trafficking humans, but sometimes, they do kill the ones they aren't able to traffick off and then sell their organs. Besides, they've been quite involved in a lot of issues." Evelyn nodded."Are you sure that the information is not leaked this time around?" Eric inquired, his brows knitted slightly as though he was thinking about something."Don't worry, this time the information is confidential and there's no one amongst the polic
"You..." Evelyn gritted her teeth as she pointed at Eric feeling as though she should chop him up into pieces.He knew what she was talking about and yet was pretending as though he didn't know. Though she knew he was going to help, he wasn't going to do that without taking advantage of her.Well, it was his fault this time, she had allowed herself to be deceived for a second time. If it was not for the incredible luck that she had which made her bring Eric along, they would all be dead now."Tell me what you want this time around?" Evelyn gritted her teeth as she looked at Eric who was staring at her."Eric!" Evelyn huffed after a while as she got no reply from Eric."Sorry, my bad." Eric came back to his senses as he looked at Evelyn.Though it looked as though he was staring at Evelyn, he was actually in deep thought, thinking about how they were going to escape. If it was only he and Evelyn, then it would have been easier.But then with the others which added up to a sum of twenty
"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Evelyn whispered as she looked at Eric with a slight frown as they proceeded to the building."Don't worry, it'll be fine." Eric laughed as his demeanor suddenly changed and he walked into the building with extreme confidence."What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be patrolling outside?" A voice questioned as a figure equally in a mask walked up to them.Immediately, Evelyn and the others froze upon hearing the voice, they had no way of answering the questions. Besides, with Evelyn's bulging chest, one would easily identify that she was a woman.For a moment, Evelyn regretted agreeing with Eric to come into the building together, it was a disaster, and they were going to fail because of her."Isn't it your turn to switch places, or do you want me to report to the boss that you're slacking off." Eric's equally arrogant voice came just as Evelyn was racking her brain thinking of what to do."Besides, we already know that those police are co
"Drop the weapon in your hands, then raise your hand and place it at the back of your head, then turn around slowly?" The voice continued."Alright, I'll do as you've said," Eric said and placed the gun in his hands on the floor, then he raised his hands and placed it behind his head and then he turned around.Right behind him was the other police officer they had come in with pointing a gun at Evelyn's head, his hands on the trigger showing he was going to shoot at any time."What the heck is happening here? Why are you pointing the gun at James." The boss immediately flew into a rage and grabbed the gun on the table, cocking it and pointing it at the police officer who held Evelyn hostage."James, huh?" The police officer sneered and angrily removed the mask on Evelyn's face."Huh?" The boss froze seeing this as he didn't expect that it would be a woman under the mask."You too, remove your mask." The police officer ordered turning to Eric."Alright," Eric grinned and removed the ma
"Huh?" Arnold froze hearing Eric's voice, but it was too late, Eric had already disarmed him and grabbed Evelyn."Bang! Bang!"Gunshots sounded as Diego and Ramon fired simultaneously at Eric, but it was too late, the latter had already ducked and hid behind the sofa they were sitting on.Soon, the gunshots coming from outside increased and it became non-stop, indicating that the fight outside had already begun.Evelyn's heart pounded against her chest as though it wanted to burst out. Her breathing was uneven as she could smell Eric's manly aura.Eric held her tightly as she could feel her chest pressing tightly onto his chest, this was the first time she had been this close to a man who was not her father.Though she knew she was not supposed to think about something like that, she couldn't help it, her heart was racing as she looked at Eric who had a serious expression.From his expression, it showed he didn't even notice anything. For a moment, she couldn't help but feel that Eri
The sounds of gunshots increased as Eric and Evelyn stepped out of the basement showing that the fight was still going on.It was somewhat heated as they could hear the shouts of the men telling themselves to take cover."Are you sure they are going to listen to us?" Evelyn asked as they walked towards where the gunshots were going."We'll just use their bodies as shields if they refuse to listen to us." Eric shrugged as he continued to drag the two men as though he was dragging a piece of trash."Brace yourself." Eric continued as they got closer to the shooting range."Stop!" Eric roared just as he got to the door.Immediately the shootings stopped as everyone turned to the door looking at Eric who walked out of the house with Diego and Ramon.Following behind him was Evelyn who had her gun pointed at both men ready to shoot."As you can see, I've captured your leader." Eric continued as he looked at the men in masks.There were about twenty with about five bodies on the floor. On t
Eric sighed as he alighted from the taxi at the front of the company. Looking at his phone, he knew he was over late as the time had exceeded for about an hour.Well, it was not his fault, the place they went was on the outskirts of the city, so he wasn't able to find a taxi easily which was why that had happened. Walking into the company's gate, he looked around, seeing that he couldn't see Chole, he couldn't help but heave in a sigh of relief.Greeting the security men, he walked to the garage with a smile on his face. Seems like he was quite lucky this time, Chole was planning to work overtime, so she wouldn't know that he was late.Getting to the garage, he walked to the car and quickly opened it wanting to drive to where he usually waited for Chole."So what time were you planning to pick me up?" A cold voice sounded just as Eric was about to start the car."Arrrghhh!" Eric screamed and immediately turned around wanting to attack the figure, but stopped midway seeing it was Cho
