Ace smiled at Ava before putting his phone back into his pocket, "are you sure you are done? I know for a fact that women spend a long time shopping since you guys seem to enjoy it so much. Are you trying to tell me you are different?"Ava was in no mood to shop as she was eager to know the plan that had been made by Red Blaze. However, she did not want Ace to be suspicious so she said, "I do enjoy shopping just like most women but I'm not really feeling up to it today. I just want to rest and get some more sleep especially since I overworked myself during the early hours of the morning."Ace smiled again when he recalled how eventful his morning had been. From the corner, a sales boy secretly watched him as he spoke on the phone, "I don't think I have ever seen Scorpion smile before. You are right, this girl surely means a lot to him."The person on the other end of the phone said, "good, just keep an eye on him and let me know when he leaves."Ava pushed the trolley toward the count
Ava quickly got up from the bed and went to the bags on the table. She briefly looked around the room and saw an enlarged picture of Ace when he was a young boy. There was a woman with him in the picture and from the resemblance, Ava instantly knew that she was his mum.She realized that this was Ace's bedroom in the house and began to wonder if he had cameras monitoring her movement. She told herself that it did not matter since she would be gone before he realized it. She began to check the bags and was surprised to see that Ace had left his phone on the table. She looked at the door and wondered if she should lock it. She decided not to as it would only make her seem suspicious.As she checked the bag of clothes that the sales girl had given to her at the mall. She took out the content one after the other and noticed a black short with something in its pocket.She quickly took it out and saw a small, white nylon with a white powdery substance in it. There was a note in the pocket
Richard got up from where he sat and went to sit closer to Damon. They stared at each other briefly before he said, "as I said before, Ava has been abducted and it happened the night she went to The Fantasy Club. The man who abducted Ava is a Mafia boss. His name is Ace but he is mostly known as Black Scorpion. He is very dangerous and ruthless.When he had first taken Ava, she had found a way to get a phone and contact me. She told me that she had been kidnapped by Ace and was trying to escape from his estate. Before I could ask her a few questions, the line went dead and I figured that she had been caught.I got a search warrant and went to his estate but he had already escaped. I searched thoroughly for her without success. However, I saw her underwear and clothes in his trash which proves that he must be abusing her sexually.The worst is that I cannot say with confidence that Ava is still alive because Scorpion has no regard for human life. Since she once tried to escape from hi
Richard sat down and stared at Danny with a serious expression on his face. Danny sighed, "after how urgent you sounded the last time we met, I thought you would have left for Thailand by now.""There's a guy called Red Blaze," Richard replied. "he has Ava believing that he is working with me and they are attempting to escape tomorrow night from Scorpion. I am afraid that this guy is an enemy of Scorpion and is merely trying to use Ava to get to him. I have no way of reaching her which means that I have to be two steps ahead of Red Blaze. If he succeeds in rescuing Ava, I need to be there to rescue Ava from him.I don't know who this Red Blaze guy is but since you are working undercover, I'm sure you can easily find out about him for me. Just ask your contacts. I need to know where to find him.""There's no need for me to ask anyone," Danny replied. "Red Blaze is famous and his lair isn't necessarily a secret. The only problem is, you won't make it in there if you are not a gangster.
Ava hugged Ace tightly as she slept. He found her recent actions really sweet and wondered if she had finally accepted this as her life.Later in the night, when Ace began to snore, Ava freed her body from his hold and got up from the bed. She had not been able to get any sleep due to how afraid she was. She had to pretend because she did not want Ace to be suspicious.She carefully opened the cupboard and began to check for Ace's coke, while looking over her shoulders every few seconds to ensure that Ace wasn't awake.She spent the next thirty minutes searching for the coke in vain. When she could not find it, she sat on the ground and began to cry. All her hopes had been dashed into pieces. She had thought that she would be reunited with Damon in no time, but now she knew that it was never going to happen.She realized that she had to inform Red Blaze that it would not be possible since she could not find Ace's coke. She got up from the ground, wiped her tears, and began to search f
After spending some time in the dining, Ava and Ace went back into the bedroom. He took out a bottle of wine from his fridge and opened it. He took out two glasses and filled them to the brim. Ava did not want to drink because she was worried she might get high and ruin her plans.However, Ace was staring at her with so much love in his eyes and she knew that it was an important day for him. After hesitating briefly, she decided to share in his joy and accepted the cup of wine from him. After drinking for a few minutes, he went to the carton and took out his coke. He poured some of it into a piece of paper and went back to the couch where he was sitting before.He placed the paper on the table in front of him and began snuffing the coke using his index finger. Ava sat on the bed watching him. Her heart was racing as she knew that her moment of escape was nigh.She still drank from the cup in her hands and did everything she could to not look suspicious. Ace was staring at her intently
The doctor arrived when it was twenty-eight minutes past seven with his equipment and checked on Ace. After a few seconds, he asked that only one person be left with him and Ace in the room.All the underlings quietly left the room while Ava stood up feeling confused. She didn't know if she was to also leave or stay by Ace's side. When she noticed that Black Axe was still sitting on the bed beside Ace, she understood that she also needed to wait outside the room.The door was locked the second Ava went outside and she felt closer to her death as the minutes went by. There were so many underlings outside Ace's door which made her so uncomfortable. While she kept waiting and hoping that the cause of Ace's condition will not be discovered by the doctor, someone slipped a piece of paper into her hand.She was both surprised and afraid as it dawned on her that it must be Red Blaze's spy. The fact that he was not afraid to act amid so many loyal underlings made her feel that Ace was in dang
EARLIER IN THE DAYRichard parked his car by the street and stayed at the top of a building from where he could get a clear view of Red Blaze's lair with his binoculars. His day had been quite a busy one. From the moment they landed in Bangkok, he had been running around trying to understand the roads that led to Red Blaze's lair and Black Scorpion's Gang house.It was also not an easy task for him to gather about two hundred officers and give them instructions on what to do. Damon had been quite helpful and involving him in the mission was a very good call, without that, he would never have made it to where he was because even the car he was driving was bought by Damon.With each passing moment, he realized that Damon was good enough for Ava and genuinely loved her. It hurt him to imagine the both of them together because he initially hoped that rescuing Ava from Scorpion's grip would give him the opportunity to get back his love but now he knew better. He did not have the kind of m
