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

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.

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

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

"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.

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
