LOGINChapter 247 Author's POV.Jessica and Lucian got back to the ward, meeting Carl, Kelvin, Damon, and Willow seated together as they walked in, drawing their attention. Willow then ran up to Lucian and held him again.“Him?” Jessica asked with her eyes wide open.“Yes, he's my best friend.” Willow replied with a smile on her face.“Shouldn't also give me a hug; I need one. I'm your sister.” Jessica spoke with a soft tone, staring at Willow.“No.” Willow responded.Lucian shook his head and held a willow hand as he walked closer to Carl, Kelvin, and Damon and sat down facing both of them.“Any news from Gray yet?” Lucian asked curiously, staring at Damon.“Not yet; it's been too long already.” Damon replied with a worried tone.“What happened?”“Did something happen to Gray?” Kelvin asked with his eyes wide open, staring at Damon and Lucian.Lucian sighed.“He went on a mission that's supposed to be swift and quick, but he hasn't returned or called; neither is he returnin
Chapter 246 Author's POV.Gray had been caught by the men and tied up against a long tree, still bleeding from the bullet wound earlier, making him weak and unable to do anything aside from bear with the pain.The gang leader with his men had gone out and just returned. Just as he got off the car, he then walked up to Gray and stared at him fiercely.“You're one strong one.” The leader spoke, nodding his head.“Boss, shouldn't we ask someone to attend to his wound, or else he'll bleed out and die, and we won't be able to find out who sent him?” One of the men said with a calm voice.The others began murmuring, hearing his words, although Gray is their hostage; him dying out of loss of blood would be a waste, as they needed to find out who sent him before reporting to Deva.The leader stared at Gray and hissed.“So what if he dies? We mustn't exactly report anything to the boss; he already killed several of us, so him doing so would actually do us good.”“The boss does
Chapter 245 Lucian's POV.It's been two hours being at the station, and still no word from the officers or any other person. I picked up my phone, still waiting to get a call from Gray, which hasn't come, with Damon starting to get impatient.“We've been here for hours now, and yet they aren't saying anything.” Damon muttered with an angry tone as he stood up.“Where are you going?” I asked curiously with a calm voice.“Boss, we've been here for hours now, and the so-called inspector is yet to arrive even though the officers who were brought seem to have disappeared.” Damon replied with an unhappy tone.I chuckled.“You should calm down; let's wait and see what will happen.” I started nodding my head.Just as I said that, the door opened with officers Kraig and Davies walking in with some papers in their hands. This time their approach seemed different as I stared at them without them giving me any friendly look.“It seems I'll have to deal with them.” I thought.They
Chapter 244 Author's POV.Jessica stared from the top floor as Lucian left with the officers, and just as she kept her eyes on them, Carl, Kelvin, and Willow then got to where she was, with Willow holding her hands.“What is it, madam? You look worried.” Kelvin asked curiously, staring at Jessica.Jessica then points downstairs at Damon, Lucian, and the officer leaving the hospital building. Seeing them, Carl asks where the boss is going and who those men following them are.“Cops”. Jessica replied quickly.“Cops?… What?” Kelvin asked with a firm voice, staring at Jessica.“Yes, cops, they claim to be taking him there for investigation regarding the bombing case, which is kind of weird because he's a victim.”“But even with Lucian knowing this, he still chooses to go with them, so at times I don't even know what he's thinking at all.” Jessica replied angrily.“The boss agreed to go with them?” Carl asked with his eyes wide open.“Yes, he did. Isn't it funny? Even
Chapter 243 Jessica's POV.Seeing Willow having a nice time with Kelvin and Carl, I smiled, as all I wanted now was just to have peaceful and happy moments with my family, but in the end, something or someone has to ruin it.“I'm glad you are really okay, and seeing how lively you guys are with Willow means there are no other issues with your health to be worried about.” I spoke with a light smile on my face.“Yeah.” Kelvin replied.“This time we were lucky; had Kelvin not spotted the bomb on time, then surely we'd be dead for sure.” Carl implied taking a deep breath.“That's true.”“But how did you notice the bomb?” I asked curiously, staring at Kelvin.Kelvin sighed.“It wasn't something that could be noticed by anyone, but someone in the underground has used such a bomb before, and that's how I recognized it.”“It's actually undetectable; this time, had I not seen it before, then it would have really been bad for us three.” Kelvin replied, nodding his head.Thoughts
Chapter 242 Author's POV.“Deva”“The man who caused a commotion at the hospital the other time?” Jessica asked curiously with her eyes wide open, staring at Gray.“Yes, he's the one.” Gray replied, nodding his head.“About what you asked me to check on, it turns out that the man who caused the fire at the casino is working for Deva, with the footage you gave me the last time.”“I tracked it for days and finally found a video of him through another CCTV meeting with Deva at a bar. At first I wasn't sure until I checked his place and found the hoodie.” Damon disclosed with a firm voice.“It seems like I've become too lenient with Deva that he's forgetting his place and even tried killing me now.” Lucian spoke with an angry tone.“What are you going to do?” Gray asked.Lucian then turns his head, facing Jessica, and tells her that she will take Willow to go see Carl and Kelvin at their ward, as they would be happy to see her; the nurse had informed him earlier that they're a
