Dave entered the nightclub, surrounded by his bodyguards. His men escorted him to the first floor of the night club which was booked by him.
Chloe saw him going toward his seat, he was seated on the balcony area from where he can easily see other. His men were guarding the area around and a few club strippers accompanying him there. She already knew that some of them are on the ground floor disguised as commoners.
She was observing the first floor from down, especially the men guarding Dave closely.
"It's not good to eye down another man when you are already with someone", he said gritting his teeth in vexation. From his tone, one could easily say how much he was irritated by the fact that the woman on his lap is looking out for another man.
His voice made her realize that she still was sitting on someone's lap. She rotated her face toward him and his face was too close to her, for once she got flustered by the proximity.
"I will make sure that you will not do that again, you will have eyes only for me", the man whispered seductively in her ear, sliding his hand inside her skirt, massaging her thighs.
She jerked his hand away.
She tried to stand up from his lap but couldn't as he wasn't losing his grip on her.
She crushed his foot by pressing her heels on his shoes, and he jumped with pain and left her.
"I already made things clear, I do not have anything to do with you. Provoke me one more time and you will not be able to touch anyone", she said pointing towards his pants, shooting glares at him.
"I love your feisty nature", he said standing up from his seat.
"I have something to do for now but remember, I have my eyes on you", he said leaving from there.
He left Chloe standing there alone.
"Hey! He left. Now get back on your mission.", Aiden's voice made her look in his direction.
She went towards the bar area where Aiden was serving drinks.
"I will go first and check how many men are up there guarding him", after saying this he went up there and gave his place to one of his colleagues.
"Why are you coming here, no one is allowed.", the guard said to him.
"I am here to serve drinks", he was working as a bartender there so it will not be suspicious for him to go there to serve him.
"No one is allowed whether you work here or not until we are here this area is off limits", the guards said to him folding his hands on his chest, standing like a mountain.
Although, Aiden is a well-trained spy and agent, someone who knows martial arts and can kill tens of people like the one standing in front of him but yet he is a man with lean and strong muscles not like the muscle pig standing guard there.
"What are you I am the one assigned to this floor's bars for VIPs", he said demanding him to get in.
"If we need anything, we will call you. We don't need you for now.", the guard said blatantly.
Aiden frowned at him for that.
"If you don't go now, we will call the manager and bouncers of this club to help you move your ass."
Aiden couldn't say anything at that as that will make them suspicious of him.
He returned to the place where he was serving, Chloe was still there with a drink in her hands.
"They did not allow me to go up there and serve him up there, now you have to do it all yourself. Remember, you have to find a way to meet him again, do whatever.", Aiden said to her as if he was talking to any other person
She nodded her head to him and went towards the stairs to go to the first floor.
She climbed the stairs.
She saw the men guarding the corridor, they stood there in pairs at some distance, a pair of men standing across each other. There were two such pairs of men, a total of four, a few insides, and she saw five men on the balcony with Dave. There are more men on the ground floor too, so she can't just barge in there.
"Mam, this is the private area you can't go there.", one of the men said blocking her to go in any further.
"I know your boss, he is expecting me there.", she knew that Dave was here for someone so she used this information to bait his men.
The two guards talked with each other about something, and one of them eyed her from top to bottom.
"Sorry mam, even if you are saying the truth we can't let you in", the guards said, not letting her in.
She knew forcing herself in, claiming that she was called here will be of no use. She will be dragged out as they found the truth. She has to say something which will sound more reasonable and to convenience them.
She suddenly got an idea.
"Can you lend me your ear please?", she said to one of the men.
The men came closer to her she whispered something in her ear.
"Please let me ask my superior first.", after saying this the man rushed in to ask his superior.
"Mam, you can go in. This way please.", the man ushered her to the balcony, to the Dave Castello.
It will be the first time, Chloe is going to face his enemy for the time. The enemy whose doom will bring her fortune. Her body was completely tense, the lie she used here to bring herself to him can become the reason for him to kill her.
She entered the place where he was sitting and saw him snuggling his face in some women's chest, trailing kisses on her collarbone.
One of his men who bring her here said something to him, which was inaudible to her because of the loud music.
She stood there beside him waiting for him to look at her.
She hung up the phone.Mira questioned her, "What happened?"."He simply ditched me, saying he got some urgent work."A car stopped in front of them.When the two turned to face the automobile, the car's window dropped.Frank was seated in the vehicle."Hey! You must be finished with your work now. Come along with me.", Frank remarked as he turned his face to Chloe from inside the vehicle."Why should I?", Chloe asked in a quiet voice glaring at him.Chloe's words were not heard by the two of them."If you'd like, let's go out to dinner together.", Frank suggested with a smile."Oh! I believe your friend arrived. Hello, I am Chloe's colleague Mira, we are in the same department.", Chloe heard Mira say this."No, he's not the friend I was talking about...", Chloe said to avoid misunderstanding.Frank interrupted Chloe's sentence, "Nice to meet you, mam. Thank you, for keeping her in your company.""No, he..."Missing Chloe's words, Mira said, "You were talking about something ditching
"You don't have to behave like my girlfriend anymore after we reveal about brother. We can sign another contract too."On the same day, in the afternoon, in the company"I will think about your words and respond later," Chloe remembered saying before leaving Frank's room."I know you'd make a wise decision," Frank said as she exited the room.Chloe was replaying the morning conversation in her head.'I have no choice but to comply with what they are saying. But now my goal has shifted; I was already lacking in information on Dave, and now I know nothing about him. Aiden has not yet contacted me. I'm sure I'm on their radar now. I can't even get in touch with him. Only if I can ask him directly.' Chloe reflected as she sat at her desk.Chloe was lost in her thoughts and didn't notice that someone was calling out for her.She was working at her desk when she heard a small knock. Mira was the one."Huh?" Chloe asked, perplexed.Mira, pointed her finger at Alex, who was standing a little
The Next Day, Early MorningChloe was dozing off in her bed when she flipped over.Behind her, she sensed a dip in the mattress, like though someone had been sitting on it.Without delay, she spun around and withdrew the dagger that she always kept beneath her pillow.She brandished the dagger at the intruder in her room.He raised his hands instantly, and it was Frank, she saw sitting on the bed."I assumed you were getting a good night's sleep." Frank remarked, "I see you are quite sensitive."Pointing the blade at him, Chloe questioned, "How did you come in?"Frank jokingly said, "Shouldn't your question be what I am doing here?"Glaring at him, Chloe said, "Answer me, first.""OK, all right." Frank replied, "I entered through that door; it's my house, and I have extra keys for all the doors in this house."Chloe noticed the door opened.Frank asked, "Now, will you put down that dagger?" as he pushed the blade halfway down.Chloe reclaimed the dagger.Chloe asked, ruffling her seve
Chloe left Frank and Dave and went to her room.As Chloe walked away, Frank asked Dave, "Can we go to my room?""Yes. By now, the room must have been cleaned by the maids.""I kept this room locked while you were away.", Dave said as he opened the door, "Everything is as it is, as you left it."Frank replied, looking around the room and recalling all the memories of his youth he had, some fuzzy and some as vivid as the sky, "Hmm... it's been a long right?"Dave hugged his brother once more and whispered, "I waited for you."Frank could hear a slight tremble in Dave's voice.Frank hugged him back, and let him rest on his shoulder for a while."How can you trust her alone? What if something happened to you? I would have sent more people. Why you asked for her alone.", Dave asked as a tear escaped from his eyes falling on his brother's shoulder.Frank said to his brother, "I wanted to see what she was capable of and what not.""You take such a big chance just to try her out?", Dave quest
On one side, Frank and Chloe were standing, and on the other, the enemy's men were waiting for Frank."I'll handle everything; just get in the car and drive away from here," Chloe told Frank.Chloe was prepared to fight back though she knew she couldn't win over these men. But the only thing she has to do is get Frank safely out of here.The enemy's men began to approach them.Frank took Chloe's hand in his."We're not going to win here." Frank said as he began running in the opposite direction pulling Chloe with him."Run." Frank said.With all those men trailing behind them."What are your thinking? We can't avoid them for long even if we run inside.", Chloe said as she ran."Simply follow me and run as fast as you can. We just need to vanish from their sight.", Frank said as the two kept running.Suddenly, a bullet was fired at them. Chloe looked behind her, and those men were getting closer. They were shoving people all over the place.The airport police attempted to stop them, bu
Dave escorted Chloe away from the party. There was another car alongside the one they arrived in. Dave made her to sit in the other car.Chloe noticed, while getting in, the Castello's symbol wasn't on the car.Dave inquired about her arms, "Are you loaded?""Sufficiently.", she answered."If you require additional weapons, there is one right beneath your seat. You are also free to take that. The driver will take you to your destination and explain everything to you. There will be a man there. Bring him safely to me. That is your responsibility.""What is his name? How will I recognize him? ", Chloe inquired, perplexed by what was going on.If there was an emergency, hundreds of Dave's men will be stationed here. But no one was there, so it could be someone Dave doesn't want anyone to know about.Who could it possibly be? Chloe asked to herself."The driver will give you a picture. I'll tell the others that you weren't feeling well, so we're both going back. I'll be waiting for you a
