《Brother's Best Friend Is My Child's Father 》全部章節：第 91 章 - 第 100 章

“I should check on her sometime but pending the time that happens, extend my greetings to the little girl. Would love to see her again.” I diffused the tension in my head with the short response. Elena nodded appreciatively, trying to not repeat the question. Judging by the look on her face, that was not the exact response she wanted to hear but she took it anyway. “She is getting better and I will extend the greetings.” She said, but she didn't look at my face. I could feel the tension in her voice and body language, but she was trying hard to hide it. Truth be told, I was doing exactly the same thing, but could I be so sure she knew how tense I was? “Place more orders?” I juggled the empty bottles on the trays placed on the table to catch her attention, then she raised her head. “I've had more than enough. Place more orders for yourself if you'd like.” She said with that sweet smile that always made my way in the premises of the hospital. That was one of the many things that mad

Standing a few meters away from the restaurant, I could clearly see the faces of people going in and coming out of the restaurant. I hadn't heard a word from my team despite the number of people arriving almost every minute.I heaved a deep breath, relaxing my muscles. Everyone was on alert, and no one could just find their way to Elena without our knowledge. A reminder of that was pretty capable of keeping my mind sane.As soon as the voice of one of the members of my team came through, I paid closer attention, keeping my eyes closed. I was hiding in the darkness opposite the restaurant, watching everything from my angle, and no one could easily spot me standing there and doing my job.“They seem a bit livelier now,” the team leader said. He must have positioned himself at the best angle to watch the reactions on the faces of Alex and Elena. “Elena has seen my face and she knows I am part of your team. She looks a bit more relaxed now. I had to keep my gaze away when Alex turned back

Dominic kept his gaze fixed on the man standing alone outside and moving suspiciously. The members of his team were also more alert than earlier. The way the man glanced at every corner already told them what they needed to know.Tension filled Dominic's mind when he saw the man dip his hands into his pocket, keeping them in there like he was trying to impress someone approaching from across the street.The man took one final look to his left, giving a quiet nod to whatever thoughts were running through his mind.All of a sudden, he pulled a dagger out of his pocket and rushed towards the entrance to the restaurant.Dominic's eyes widened with fear as he quickly notified Adrian and Marcus to pay close attention to what was happening. His suspicion all along hadn't been wrong. The man was truly suspicious, and not only was he now a suspect or a prime target, but clearly a hardened criminal.The way he had inspected every corner before making the move that sent tension into the minds of

My gaze trailed over his face for a little while, my mind scrutinizing the best way to handle him. I gave a quiet scoff, lowered my gaze again as I buried my face in my knees. I heard Adrian murmur to Marcus about how ready he was to punch the man in the face. I heard the walls shake and the floors tremble to the heaviness of his punch, and that made me raise my head. I pulled my chair closer to the man. Perhaps he didn't understand the gravity of the offence of staying quiet in moments like this. Perhaps he didn't realize he could be killed and his body could be trashed without anyone's knowledge and investigation. “This silence.” I murmured, heaving a small breath. “This kind of silence will not work for you. Silence in this kind of moment only makes the situation worse.”He stayed quiet nonetheless, enhancing the pent-up frustration of my mind, but I was a master at doing things patiently. I stared at his face for an answer and the way he looked at me suggested that he was about

Anyone would answer my questions with a normal expression, and maybe even with a soft smile too, except Elena.She was trying too hard to fit into that category, but I could obviously tell how difficult it was for her. The smile across her chin looked forced, like she was trying so hard to keep her emotions concealed.Didn't she feel safe enough to be on a date with me? Didn't she agree to this? Why was she trying to kill the mood with her suspicious gestures?I was the one who invited her on the date. That automatically made me the one who had to put her in the mood each time she drifted out of it. Elena was a very active person, and if she looked this down, then something must be seriously wrong.Her mind must be troubled by something in particular. I could guess, but I couldn't fully tell if my guesses were true unless she revealed what was going on in her mind.Even though the questions I recently asked her sounded random, I needed to ensure I was being emotionally available for h
