A meeting so risky

Albert tightened his fist on the phone. His eyes were bloodshed. His anger was on peak though it was just sensed by his tightened muscles and furicious eyes. His aura had grown like a mighty Greek god who would destroy the world in seconds. 

"She said, she won't meet me, right?" He asked emphasing every single word. His tone was scary.

Over the phone butler gulped, "Madam will meet you tomorrow. She had others plans tonight." 

Albert disconnected the call. He was so much angry that he punched his study table. The glass broke within no seconds. 

Albert Knight never learnt to wait. That girl dared to ignore him and went for other plans. She even gave him an appointment for tomorrow. Indeed arrogant!

He took deep breaths and called Ryan, "Find each and every information about my wife."

Ryan was dumbfounded hearing his instructions. It's been one year he is working with him, never saw him to get close to any girl. Even he didn't know his arrogant boss was married.

"Err...Sir, you are married?" He asked.

Damn! That boss didn't invite him. 

"Any problem?" This tone was so cold that Ryan forgot about the invitation immediately. 

"No, no. Just saying. I will find about her. What's her name?" He asked being scared.

"I don't know."  Ryan rolled his eyes over the phone. Of course he wouldn't dare to do this in front of him.

'Boss, this is your wife. You don't know her name. And asking me to find her information. Does it make any senses?' He said in mind.

Which death goddess asked him to apply for this job?

"When did you marry?" He couldn't hold his curiosity any longer.

"Almost two years."

Ryan almost vomited his blood. Two years!

That man is married for two years and doesn't even know his wife's name. 

When Albert Knight failed to know her name in two years, how could this poor soul find it in just some hours??

"Er...." He didn't know what to say.

"Can you do that?" He again asked in very calm but stern tone .

"Yeah, yeah. Of course. I can." He said but under his breath he questioned himself, "Can I?"

When Albert disconnected the call, Ryan gritted his teeth and slapped his forehead. Was he sane to take job under this freak?

Though Albert believed in Ryan's efficiency, he didn't want to take risk. After all it was a matter of his whole career. He can't just act reckless.

He took out a private phone from his locker and dialled an unique number, "Xavier, find the details about my wife. I want it on my desk before the sun rises."

Xavier was his right hand. He knew what his boss needed. He didn't ask any second question. After disconnecting the call, he started his information haunt.

But Albert was still not satisfied. That girl dared to ignore his order! He needed to make her pay for that. He needed to calm his anger. So he took his Mazda Ms-5 and went for a rush driving.

On the car racing track, he sped up car to the highest speed. Speed, adventure, thrill and danger gives him spirit. His reckless driving was helping him to vent his anger. 

After two minutes of rush driving, he found a navy blue porsche 911 came from nowhere. The driver's skill was so good. That car tried to surpass him but how could he allow?

They started racing. Albert was impressed by the driver's skill. But he became amazed when he noticed a beautiful girl with open hair was racing with him. Her mesmerising beauty and unstoppable courage indeed dazed him. With a smirk he used his full skills and tamed her easily. 

They had a battle in racing. But Albert Knight being Albert Knight. How could he lose? 

When they stopped racing and got out of car, Albert went near her. Now he could see her face clearly. Her beauty was something unique. And he knew her courage made her that unique. Adele removed her lather jacket and laid on the track with hands behind her head. She didn't even look at him. She was so lost in her own thoughts 

"Is something bothering you?" This was the first time Albert took the initiative to talk to an unknown girl. 

Actually second, he tried to contact his wife too.

He also laid beside her.

She turned her head. A completely handsome face came to her vision. The sharp jawline, toned nose and dark eyes, everything was so perfect. Her eyes got stick to that dark pair of eyes. It took a long time for her to understand she was drooling over him. She diverted her gaze and gave an awkward smile.

"Anger made me a bad girl. I vented it. I will be a good girl from tomorrow. " her tone was childish yet painful.

"You've got skills." He said truthfully.

Adele sighed and looked at him seriously, "I know it. But I need to practice more."

"I can teach you." He didn't know what compelled him to say that.

She laughed out loud, "Don't worry, I've the best teacher. By the way, why are you here, handsome?" 

This was the also the second time someone dared to refuse him. But it's the first time he didn't mind. Because he was sure her teacher was really skilled. Or else, she shouldn't have learnt this level of skills. Before Albert could say anything, he sensed some people coming towards them. Their movement was stern yet careful. He raised his head and looked at the surroundings carefully. 

Silence. Deep silence. 

Yet someone's breathing sound, someone's rushing sound.

With a sudden jerk he took Adele in his embrace. Fire sounds broke the silence. One after one bullets were rushing towards them. Adele was shocked at first but gradually she composed herself. They got up and rushed into Albert's car.

He started his car and ran it on the free street of LA. Behind him three cars were rushing maintaining a little distance. 

Adele sighed deeply. Problems never leave her.

"What's going on?" She asked him.

He threw his phone towards her, "Call Xavier."

Adele rolled her eyes but dialled the number.

"Melrose Avenue. Total eight cars. Around 50 people." Albert's command was short but pointed.

He took out his revolver from the car seat and fired ditecting the wheel of nearby car of attackers.

They started to fire too. But to his surprise, he noticed Adele took out a revolver from her boot, opened the car door and bent down to shoot in their directions. Her tip was so perfect. The tree cars they stopped blocked the road. 

After Adele closed the door, Albert took a harsh turn and sped up the car. Suddenly Adele found no one was after them. She looked at him questioningly. 

"My men handled them." His answer was short.

After driving for long two hours, Albert stopped the car. It was almost dawn.

"You knew how to shoot?" He asked her.

"I am sure you want to praise my skills." She smirked.

"How come you were so calm?" He was feeling curios. It was not possible for a normal person not to show any expression.

"I've got the best teacher for shooting." Her answer always indicates a best teacher. Interesting!

"Boss, we handled it. But it's Jack's people." A man in formal black suit bowed and informed.

"Seems like Jack wants to destroy his own gang. But who gave him that courage to attack me?" He muttered. 

Adele smiled bitterly. Wasn't they after her? This man just misinterpreted.

"Take him to my place. It's been long time we meet." Sighing deeply, he asked that man to leave. He didn't intend to scare Adele.

"Who are you?" Alede guessed he was connected with mafia.

"Call me Victor. " Actually it was his name in underworld. Though he just wanted to run business, he was dragged into that life where he never wanted to be. He always kept both lives differently. Now the girl knew about his dark secrets, would it be good to say about the other one? 

 "What's your name?" He wanted to know

Adele smiled bitterly. Was it a good idea to tell a mafia leader own name?? 

"Call me Ade." She said in a low voice.
