"Now this was what I was expecting." Rebbeca's loud laughter came from the other end of the phone.Alex's heart sank hearing this. He knew that no matter what he was going to say was going to change her mind.Though he didn't know what she wanted, he could tell that it wouldn't be something he would be willing to give up."So tell me what it is you want?" Alex inquired once again seeing that Rebbeca didn't say anything.His heart was beating very fast and he was anxious. He knew Rebbeca rather too well.No, not that he knew her too well, he just knew that she was capable of many evil schemes. She must have been the one who brought up the idea of killing his parents.Though he had no idea who brought the idea up, he had a silver lining that she was the one and he was convinced that she was the one."Now don't be too fast, take everything slowly, I'll tell you when the time is right." Rebbeca laughed.Alex sighed and didn't say anything. He was sure that whatever Rebbeca was planning wa
(The Next Day)"I couldn't find the trace of John no matter how much I looked, it's just as though he disappeared. Also, your previous residence was empty." Lucas reported to Alex who was sitting on the sofa sipping a coffee."Just as I had thought," Alex muttered under his breath."But sir...""There's no need to say anything, we can't say what he's up to now, so let's just watch." Alex interrupted Lucas."Yes sir." Lucas nodded and didn't say anything again.He was in awe of Alex and wasn't sure of how the latter's brain worked. Well it was not a big deal alright, so he was quite okay with it.Alex on the other hand frowned, he had been thinking since yesterday, but yet he was not able to figure out where John was.Besides, the feeling he had in his heart was increasing with each second which made the frown on his face even deeper thinking about where John might be.He wasn't going to trouble himself too much and was just going to push it away from his mind."Sir, do you still think
"Young Master," Lucas called gently, seeing that Alex didn't say anything for a while."Don't worry I'm fine." Alex shook his head with a smile on his face."She's just trying to annoy me, but don't worry, I won't let her plans come to fruition." Alex smiled, shaking his head before putting down his phone.He was not in the slightest bit annoyed at Rebecca. Though he was not expecting the prank she had pulled on him, he was not going to do anything.Lucas breathed in a sigh of relief hearing Alex's calm voice. Though if he was the one, he would have already blown his hat off due to anger."Don't worry, she's sure to call back in the next few hours." Alex laughed, shaking his head.He couldn't care less about stuff like that. Since Rebbeca was trying to annoy him, then he was not going to get swayed.He already knew her intention, so it was quite easy for him to avoid it, all he needed was to act like he didn't know and then it was all cool."What are we going to do now ?" Lucas asked
In a flash, three hours passed, but there was no call from anyone. It was as though Alex and Lucas had come just to eat."Going Master, are you sure that she will come?" Lucas couldn't help but ask, feeling rather impatient."Well, it's obvious that she is not going to come, but let's play along." Alex shook his head resting his head on the sofa he was sitting on.Lucas nodded and didn't say anything. This was getting too much. Rebbeca was doing it too much.What the heck was this? Toying with the emotions of the Young Master. The Young Master was human too, at least, she should treat him with some respect.But that was not the case, she had been turning him up and down. And the Young Master was not complaining.Well then Alex had no other choice, the moment he complained, the game was going to end and all of his patience was going to amount to nothing, so it was better just to continue with the game.That was the best. And since the Smiths had a lot of time, then they were just wasti
"So what do you want?" Alex asked again, feeling that Rebbeca was taking things too seriously.He was not interested in doing anything at the moment other than rescue his loved ones, so all they were thinking depended on her thoughts.It was purely none of his business, he couldn't care less about it and he would continue to care less about it."Here's what we want." Rebbeca suddenly continued after a while."First, you'll hand over all the companies you have here in the Capital," Rebbeca began.Alex's expression changed upon hearing this and didn't say anything. He was already expecting this. He knew that they were going to take the chance to recover their losses."Second, the Companies you have in Atlanta would also be given to us. That would serve as Payment for the other." Rebbeca continued.Alex sighed in his heart, despite all that he had done, they had still managed to take away everything.Well, it was not everything they had taken away. He still had his former company in Atla
"Young Master, are we sure we want to give them everything?" Lucas sighed looking at Alex who had a stack of documents in his front while signing."Yeah, it's not an issue as long as they keep to their promise." Alex shook his head, not raising it up to look at Lucas."Don't you think it'll affect the company that way?" Lucas sighed, still not wanting Alex to do it."Well, it won't affect the company, it's just like selling the company and just changing the owner, that's all." Alex shook his head, finally raising it to look at Lucas.Why the heck was the latter sounding dumb? Didn't he know about all these, and yet he was asking. What kind of question was that? Well he was not too shocked, he must have been traumatized that he was not able to think about anything else."Besides, you shouldn't worry about anything." Alex continued after a while looking at Lucas who still liked scared.Lucas nodded not knowing what to say again. There was nothing he could do to change the Young master'
Alex sighed and shook his head. There was nothing he could do anyway. He was just going to have to head to where she had said..The distance of the place was just about ten minutes drive. He just couldn't understand what Rebbeca could be planning at a time like this.Whatever she was planning, he was going to know after he got there."I'll be heading to the location." Alex sighed and stood up taking the stack of files in his arms."Young Master, isn't it too dangerous?" Lucas panicked not knowing what to do."Well I have no other choice but to do it." Alex smiled shaking his head."We don't want Rebbeca to do anything unreasonable, so we just have to fk all that she was going to say." Alex continued."So you'll stay back while I'll head there, don't worry, I'll be back with everyone.""Yes Young Master." Lucas nodded.There was no need to say anything, Alex was not going to listen to him, so he could only pray that the Young Master was going to be safe."Now, I'm off" Alex sighed and
"No, that's not it, I was just shocked." Alex shook his head, not knowing what to say."Well, that's none of my business." Rebbeca sneered."Hand over the files." She commanded."Where are my parents and children?" Alex frowned, refusing to give the files to Rebbeca."Do you think you're in a situation to debate with me?" Rebbeca frowned looking at Alex."Nope, but I just need to see them before handing it over." Alex shook his head.At this moment, his demeanor had changed completely and he was emitting a kind of coldness that would cause one to shiver."Fine." Rebbeca sighed."Though I was planning on keeping the surprise till the end, who knew you'd be wanting to see it so soon." She laughed."Bring them in."Soon, the door at the back opened and a figure led a group of people into the room.There were six people, plus the figure leading them made it seven.Four adults and three children. The children looked rather terrified as they walked towards Rebbeca."Daddy!"One of Alex's ch
