"Clara, nice to meet you. How may I be of help to you?” Leo’s eyes widened when he saw Clara walking toward him, but his gaze turned cold in a moment.

“What a coincidence seeing you here.”

Clara choked back the speech she had prepared to explain herself and greeted Leo stiffly, especially seeing the princess. She thought she was with him for only that day.

If someone had told her this was her ex's new love interest, she wouldn't have believed it. Who would have thought that it was true? Although they were divorced, Clara felt a little uncomfortable seeing her ex-husband being with another woman. She was kind of jealous.

“Leo, is she a friend of yours?” Melissa asked. She sized Clara up with her eyes, scanning her from head to toe. She was hostile towards Clara, seeing her as not her class. Clara widened her eyes, is the princess who was her acquaintance no longer recognizing her but this was an act from the princess.

His type is rare among men?"Clara blinked her eyes, forcing to look away, although her emotions were getting more and more obvious but she couldn't help. She didn't want to show it but pretended as though all is well with her being with Henry."I see no reason, with due respect, your highness," he bowed.

Right there, she wanted to get into this so her position would skyrocket. "This would be a great milestone for me," she leaned and whispered to Elene who giggled. "I might likely become the next prime minister of this country!" Clara made a little dance but with a wide smile. "Elene, what do you think?" Elene blushed, giggling. "That would be great! I can't wait for the list to be announced. It would be kudos to us!"

I thought you were a good woman." "And I thought you were a good man, a good husband, not knowing you were hiding your true identity to eat from my pocket." This pissed Leo so much. "What does she means?" He narrowed his eyes, raising his eyes, he looked at her sternly in the eyes. "Do you think I wouldn't survive without you?" After all he did for her, she had the guts to say this against him. She didn't know but he greatly helped him to the position of Duchess she was. With his skills, he had cured one of the Royal Officials who were in charge of appointing positions of authority, he refused a pay at the end of the treatment. "What do you want?"

"Listen, now I want you to stay out of this.

"I am sorry my prince. I can not do that." He said to the prince. "It is deep under the sea and is along with all the bodies I always out there. It will be hard to find." He replied to the prince.

    Capone stared at the bodies in Charlie's apartment for a while. He wondered how to clear them out. There were three dead bodies and he was just one person. He thought about calling his men to come and aid him, but he settled for not calling them at all. "If I do, they will figure I did not kill the target when they do not see him." He thought to himself. "And words could get out to Prince Colton. I can not have that happening." He also thought. He decided to do it himself, but he also had to be smart about it. He went out and looked through the window of the apartment. The window was facing the back of the building. He observed the scene and noticed it was a dead part of the street. No one ever got into it. He then had an idea. He quickly went out and ran into his car. He brought out bags and tapes. They were meant to be used to wrap Charlie after looking at him and taken away, but since things took a dramatic turn, they would now be used for another purpose. To wap his men

    "I know I've seen you somewhere before." The security guard said. "Do you mind taking off your glasses?" He asked Charlie politely. "Yes, I do. The lights aren't good for me." Charlie said, trying as much as possible to remain unknown. His wife soon felt there was a problem. She stood up and turned to her husband. "Honey. What is the matter?" She asked her husband. "Nothing. I am just thinking I know this guy and trying to figure out where we last saw each other." He said to his wife. He very well knew he saw Charlie somewhere and it was not for a good reason, that was why he was interested. "Please can I just have a glimpse of your face without the glasses?" He said to Charlie. Charlie knew now and here that this man was not playing. He was kin on knowing who he was. Charlie knew that to escape this, he had to pull a new stunt. "Why are you harassing me?!"

    "Well, I can not just leave like that. You have to give me something. And I have to clean this mess up."Capone said, pointing at his dead men. "I have two hundred and fifty thousand dollars cash," Charlie said. "If that will do." He asked Capone. "Yes. " Capone said. "It sure will. " He added to Charlie. Charlie then walked to his bag and took out money wrapped in a paper bag. He gave the money to Capone. "Here it is," he said to Capone and he gave the money out.

    They still had the guns pointed at each other. Charlie, knowing he wouldn't win this had to find another way around it. "Why don't you let me go?!" He said to Capone. Capone thought for a while. "I can't. " Capone said. "You know, I am just like you, I have failed at work before. I always deliver." He added. Charlie's heart was now racing. He knew he was. getting out of there, so he wanted to pull the trigger. Capone knew when someone wanted to pull the trigger. Anytime someone wanted to pull the trigger especially to kill another person, they always experienced an involuntary rise in emotion. It was something that learning to control took years. When he saw Charlie being that way, he knew that Charlie wanted to pull the trigger. "Do not do it. " He said to Charlie. "I know you want to, but if you do, you are a dead man already," Capone added. Charlie knew that Capone could detect when someone wanted to shoot at him or another person, but how did Capone always know? Capone neve
