Red Blaze stared at Ava with an amused expression on his face and laughed, "but he is dead, darling. Killed by your very own hands. Did you really think that the substance I gave you was just a simple pack of coke? I only told you that in order to get you to cooperate with me.That pack contained Scorpion's brand of coke, yes. However, it had been mixed with snake venom and other poisonous elements. As long as Black Scorpion snuffed it and took it into his system, there is no way out for him. He cannot survive it and whatever any doctor does to revive him is futile.Tears dropped from Ava's eyes as she realized how foolish she had been to trust Red Blaze. The latter laughed again and said, "oh poor thing! Are you feeling sad for your dead lover? You shouldn't be my dear. Black Scorpion was a monster and he deserved to die.""No, he wasn't" Ava shrieked. "You are the monster and I was a fool to have trusted you." Red Blaze flashed her an evil grin before dropping the glasses of wine h
As he lay on the ground, Richard regained consciousness a while later and heard noises around him as well as his phone ringing. He recalled everything that had happened so far and his eyes instantly shot open. He saw a few people surrounding him. When they saw him open his eyes, two of the men helped him up from the ground and wanted to take him to the hospital.Richard shook his head, "thank you very much. I'm grateful to you all but I'm fine."He wasn't fine actually. His head was in a lot of pain and so was his body but he kept thinking about Ava and her situation. She was counting on him to save her and he could not let her down.He got up and staggered toward the road, much to the surprise of the people around him. Ignoring the blood which was dripping at the back of his head, he stopped a taxi and got in after telling the driver where he was heading to.He took out his phone which kept ringing inside his pocket and realized that the screen had been badly broken. He answered the
Richard finally met up with Damon and the latter was shocked to see his appearance. "What happened to you?" Damon asked.Richard sighed, "I was cornered by two cars and pushed off the road. They were gangsters so I suspect that they work for Red Blaze. I got into a terrible accident and almost didn't make it out alive. The explosion of the car made me pass out and that's why I could not take your calls.Since you said Red Blaze did not show up here, it means he is already onto us. He may have taken Ava somewhere else and I need to find out where.""I'm glad you survived," Damon replied. "I can't stop thinking of what Ava must be going through right now. What should we do next? "Richard took out his phone and called Danny, "Red Blaze certainly has another hideout, please find out it for me because Ava's life is at stake.""Alright, give me a minute," Danny replied. While he waited for Danny's call, Richard asked Damon to inform all the officers that it was time for action.Danny calle
Richard and Damon came back to their hotel room with frustration clearly written on their faces. They had spent the past two days going around the city of Bangkok in disguise trying to find out which of Ace's houses he was actually hiding at. Richard stared at all the places he had crossed off his list and realized that only one of Ace's houses was left. However, this building which was built like a palace was situated in a quieter part of the city.He felt worried because it was their headquarters and would mostly be crawling with gangsters. Of course, since Ace's father wasn't in the country, half of their men were with him, ensuring that he was well protected but this did not change the fact that Ace still had a lot of men.Going to this place was very risky so Richard knew that he needed to plan carefully. That night, he went alone to a club that Ace's underlings frequented. He was hoping to pick out one or two pieces of information that would be vital to his mission tomorrow.Goi
Ava opened her eyes the next morning when she felt someone's hand on her back. She saw a pair of familiar eyes staring at her and was surprised. She quickly sat upright and stared at him. He seemed stressed out that she could not help but wonder what had been keeping him busy. She could not keep her curiosity to herself and asked, "where have you been all this time, Ace," Ace ignored her question and said, "get ready, princess. We are moving to one of my beach houses. I need you to pack up the few belongings you have here before it gets dark because we leave in the evening. Some important members of the Black Scorpion Mafia gang are coming over here and I don't feel comfortable having you under the same roof with them."Ava had no idea about what Ace was talking about and the fact that he ignored her question annoyed her. Why did he think he could keep taking her to different houses all the time? She was already tired of moving from one place to another as if she were a criminal. "I
Richard began to wonder if Ava and Ace were going somewhere. He hoped that was not the case because it was going to ruin all his plans. He pulled his eyes away from Ava with great difficulty because he did not want it to seem as though he was falling in love with the boss's girl.But the fact was that he did love Ava. If he didn't, he wouldn't have undertaken such a deadly mission just for her to gain her freedom. The underling led her toward one of the cars that were parked closer to the gate and as she passed by him, she did not recognize him. Perhaps because she wasn't looking at him. He could see from her expression that she was not happy. How could she be when Ace had forced her into becoming his whore?Ace came out just after a few of his men did and quickly began speaking to one of them. It now became very obvious to Richard that Ace was going out with Ava. Seeing that she was holding a bag, Richard began to wonder if they were traveling out of the country. No, he could not let
Richard could not understand what had just happened. The moment Ace and his underlings drove out of the compound, he snatched the Van keys from one of the workers who had driven them there. He hurried out of the gate and got into the van, leaving behind the surprised workers.He went after Ace because when he came out and did not see Damon or his bike, he suspected that he had run away with Ava and that was why Ace and his men had left in a frenzy. He wanted to be sure about this because he had earlier discussed his plans with Damon and they had an understanding. Why would Damon do something contrary when he knew that there was very little chance of it being successful? After driving for a few minutes, Richard dialed Damon's number to confirm his suspicions while hoping that he was wrong. When his phone rang and he saw that it was from Richard, Damon knew that he would not be able to speak. He was driving at full speed and needed both his hands. He slowed down, and handed his phone t
Ava overheard Richard and Damon's conversation because Damon turned on his loudspeaker. She felt moved to tears. It was hard to believe that they were working together to set her free from Scorpion's grip. She felt quite fortunate. She was someone who didn't have any family yet both Richard and Damon were going all out for her. She didn't know what she did to deserve so much love from both of them. If they were not in her life, she would have ended up as Scorpion's prisoner for the rest of her life but thanks to the two of them, she could now live the life she had always dreamed of by Damon's side.She knew that what they were doing was risky but at this point, all she could think of was the love she held in her heart for the man in front of her. She held him so tightly and laid her head on his back. Damon turned and stared at her, he caressed her face briefly before planting a kiss on her lips.Ava felt a rush of emotions, this was the love of her life, the man she wanted to spend th
